FIELDS OF GOLDEN GRAIN
Mr.. and Mrs. r. r. Montgomery Re
turn From Visit With Their
Son., Minus, in Nebraska.

Mr.. and Mrs. Z. r. Montgomery re-
turned last week from Silver Creek,
Neb., where they enjoyed visit at
the home of their son, Minus. In de-
scribing the trip Mrs. Montgomery had
the following to say:
I'VE took the Northwestern for
Omaha, then went over the Union Pa
cihc to Silver Creek. On the trip out
there was much to be seen, fields OF
golden grain shocked ready to be
threshed, and such fine fields of corn
all tasseled out. We saw the Platte
river and crossed the Missouri river.
but must confess that felt rather
shaky as two trains were crossing the
bridge at the same time. When We
reached Silver Creek we found our
friends waiting for us. After a trip of
three miles into the country we ar
rived at the home Of our son, where
we sat down to fine meal with some
fine fresh fried fish. Minus is farming
and his crops look fine. John Lun-
green has nice farm. witt. good build
ings. There were no hills to be seen
near Silver Creek. Iowa is good
enough for me, however, with its hills
and good watel.'

Mrs. George Schultz Dies of Old Age
at the Home Of Her Dau0h-
ts, Near Chicago.

Sunday afternoon at o'clock the
held at the German Lutheran church
in this city. Rev. Amstein, of Charter
Oak, having charge on account of the
absence of the regular pastor, Rev.
William Frcse.
The deceased was former resident
of Dcnison and Crawford county, but
since the death of her husband some
two years ago she had been making
her home with her daughter Mrs. Oh
ga Henningsen, in a suburb of Chi
cago, where she passed quietly away
on Friday, July 10th. Mrs. Schultz
was born in Germany on the 10Th day
of December, 1916, and came to Amer
ica in 1862. She was united in mar
riage at Chicago to Mr.. Geo. Schultz
in the year 1864. In 1872 they came
west, locating on farm in Crawford
county where they lived for about
eighteen years. At this time they re-
tired from active work and moved to
Dcnison. where Mr.. Schultz died about
two years ago.
The immediate cause of the death
of this good old lady was due to the
infrmities of old age. She was a
good christian mother and was loved
by all who knew her.
Besides her daughter in Illinois she
leaves to mourn her death three other
daughters. namely: Mrs. Bertha

Denison may now boast of real
brass band. something she has been
without for the past few years The
band is no small affair, but is com
posed of twenty-one pieces, and bids
fair to be even larger before many
weeks. The boys, under the leader
ship of Harold Schaffer, have been
prac.icinG for several weeks and this
evening for the first time will give a
band concert on the corner of Main
and broadway. Last week petition
was circulated among the business
men of the city and in the neighbor-
hood of $4,000 was raised for musical
instruments and music. At a recent
meeting Dan VOss was elected as man
ager of the organization and Charles
kemming. Jr. as treasurer. Denison
has long been in need of band and
there should be no reason why it
should not pay out. Every business
man in town would be willing to do
nate for two band concerts week and
besides this there would be other op-
pOrtunities for the band to make mon
ey. We understand that the band
boys will furnish music at the ball
games during chautauqua week.

PROVIDERS HAVE
A BUSY WEEK
Two Hobberies Reported to Police
Residence OF F. F. Rannigcr
Broken Into Sunday.
FREIGHT DEPOT BURGLAR,zED
Boxes Of Merchandise Broken Into
and Articles Taken-Mr. Morgan
Loses His Coat.

Last week seemed to be busy one
for prowlers and two robberies have
been reported to the local police, but
as yet no arrests nave been made
The residence OF +. f. Ranniser in
the college addition was broken into
Sunday between II and ! o'clock while
the family was attending church and
Sunday school, and $4,000, some jew
elry and two suits OF clothing were
taken from the house The other rob
berry took place at the Northwestern
railway station, where it is reported
several boxes of merchandise in the
store room were broken into and some
of the contents stolen.
At Rannigcr's the entrance was
made through a side door, where a
screen door was forced open. Every
room in the house was ransackcd and
$4,000 belonging to II. NJ. Clark, who
is working for Mr.. Ranniger, was TAX
en- from his trunk. Mr.. Clark tells us
that the robber or robbers searched
everything in his room and opened his
trunk, taking a fine gold watch and a
medal he received while he was serv-
ing in the First Regiment OF Chicago.
Two suits of clothing were taken from
his room. A handsome gold brooch,
belonging to Mrs. Ranniger, together
with some other jewelry, was found
missing. 1t is believed that the rob
berry was committed by some tramp,
who had watched the family leave the
house for church. Whoever it was
that perpetrated the deed was good
and hungry, for a fine cake was tax
en- from the pantry shelf. Descrip-
tions OF the stolen property have been
sent to police headquarters in the
nearby cities and to pawn shops and
it is thought that some trace will be
found of them within a few days.
Some time after closing hours and
Sunday morning the freight depot OF
the Northwestern was entered. +. II.
Morgan was first to discover that
someone had been in the building
when he went down Sunday morning
to do some work and found that his
pencils had been taken from the desk.
Later he discovered that his light
summer coat, which he kept hanging
near the desk, was missing. Upon in
vestigating it was found that several
boxes of merchandise stored in the
freight room had been broken into and

DenisOn's fine new athletic park
will be officially opened to the public
this afternoon, when the local team
will play game with Dow City, and it
is expected that large crowd will
be in attendance. The ball prrk is
now about completed and we are ad-
vised that Denison has one of the
fastest diamonds in the state. Grad
ers have been at work up until today
getting the diamond and field down to
Grade and this morning 1t was soaked
down and rolled so that it is in the best
possible condition. 1t is an ideal park
with a large grand stand in the north
east corner, elevated enough so that
those on the bottom tier of seats will
be able to see every part of the dia-
mond. Pits for the ball teams have
been built to each side of the grand
stand, where the team at bat can sit
in the shade and watch the game.

Louie Jacobsen, of Ute, will do the
pitching for todays game, and the old

again and will doubtless pitch one of
the games. Kelly. of the Stortz Tri-

the hard games for the locals.

be able to make good showing.
The schedule for the week is as fol
lows:
Saturday, July 1Sth-Omaha Amcri-
cans.
Monday, July 2Oth-Manilla.
Tuesday, July 2lst-Dow City.
Wednesday, July 22d-Wall Lake.
Thursday, July 23d-Carroll.
The game for Saturday of this week
promises to be the best game of the
series. The Omaha Americans have
played here before and it has been nip
and tuck between the two teams as
70 which is the best.
The games will be called at the close
of the afternoon sessions of the chau-
tauqua and there should be no reason
why the attendance should not be
large.
1t has cost several hundred dollars
more than was planned to get the new
ball park in shape and the ball club is
anxious to help pay the deficit in the
treasury. Every one turn out and give

REPUBLICANS Are
IN CONVENTION
Convention Now in Session at De:
Moines Will Declare for Strong
Protective Tariff.
'LIuooR QUESTION is NOW ON
Much Activity Being Shown by Can
diGates for State Auditor-Fight
Between Byrnes and Shaw

The Iowa state republican conven-
tion is in session at Dcs Moines today
and from this mornings Des Moines
papers its looks as if the convention
will be harmonious one. Most all
of the delegates to the convention
have expressed themselves in favor OF
revival of old time republicanism
and progressives and stalwarts alike
look forward to settlement of all
party differences.
It is expected that the convention
will declare for a tariff on Iowa farm
products and leaders among the stand
pattCrs held conference yesterday
and will insist upon radical protect
i've tariff uttcrancc in the republican
state platform to be reported to the
convention today. They intend to de-
mand the inclusion in the platform of
the national tariff declarations of 1896
in substance, but will not mention a
schedule.
Vets and Drys.
The committee on resolutions are

wet element controls this committee
it is believed that a declaration for re-
submission might win. 1t has been
predicted that if the subject were TAX
en- on the floor of the convention a
declaration for resubmissiOn might be
expected, but doubt is expressed if
either side would undertake to undo
the work of the committee on resolu-
tions, whatever the outcome Of its de-
liberationS.
Fight for State Auditor.
There was considerable activity in
the capital city yesterday on the part
of candidates and their helpers among
the delegates in regard to the office of
state auditor. Des Moines papers state
this morning that gossip among the
delegates was nearly agreed that the
fight for the nomination Of state aud
itor is between j. H. Byrnes, present
deputy, and Frank S. Shaw, of Tama.
The Byrnes and Shaw supporters are
most numerous and the headquarters
of these men have been thronged with
delegates who wanted to talk over the
situation. Wall and Ellis, who aspire
to the nomination for state auditor are
aligned with the standpat wing Of the

Cannot Grow Butter Beans

"Please tell me the reason why
cannot grow butter beans. My
garden is on the bank of the river,
and very rich black loan. The
vines grow luxuriantly and are full
OF fine blooms but no beans develop.
l have not used any fertilizer at
allS"
Your garden simply has an ex.
cess Of nitrogen, as is shown by the
luxuriant growth OF the vines, but
1t lacks the mineral elements that
make seed. | manure my garden
over every winter and then apply a
mixture Of four parts acid phosphate
and one part muriate of potash,
al the rate of 1000 pounds an acre,
and | grow butter beans and every.
thing else to perfection. But the
large white Lima beans are never so
productive in the South az the small
Lima or butter bean, and in fact to
NV taste the small Lima is the best.
use the small Lama for a climber
and plant Burpee's Fordhook Bush
Lima for a large one. THIS bears
well, and makes very large beans of
the Potato Lima class. Your soil
needs balanced ration just as the
animal does. Give 1t the dressing
OF acid phosphate and it will grow
butter beans freely. Another cor
respondent in eastern North CARROLL
ma has the same trouble. He says:
"For years | have been putting
stable manure on my garden and in
tended not do so this year, but was
away and il was done. Plants IN
my garden grow very luxuriantly,
bat not much fruitage. Now to
remedy this could | use commercial
fertilizers, and if so what and how
much?" This correspondent too
has got too much nitrogen and
needs the same application. w.
