literally sailed over the outer edge OF
the bowl as he WAS nearing the grand
stand and landed outside with Cooper
and his meChanician, Louis llel'
pinned underneath.
The second accident came near the
close Of the race, when, in the 238th
lap, Billy Chambers car crashed
against the inside rail, almost OPP
posite the point where Cooper had
met his death. Morris Keller, Chand-
ler's mechaniciau, died at the hos
pital late tonight Chandler has less
than an even chance for recovery, ac-
cOrding to physicians. Piel, one OF
the victims OF. the first accident, was
reported also TO be in a critical con-
dition. with better prospects, however,
than the others.
Coopcr's skull was crushed in the
first accident and his death was prdc-
tically instantaneous.
HowOuts the Cause.
In both accidents, tire blowouts
we're ascribed as the cause, although
in the case Of Cooper, a broken steer
ing knucklc was said TO have been
the immediate reason for his loss Of
control. After striking the ground
outside the track the momentum
Of the car was so great that 1t crashed
into the ends of the grandstaud' and
forced It's way under the structure.
Officials said Cooper was going at the
rate Of 100 miles am hour at the time.
Chambers wife was In the grand
stand when her husband went through
the inside track fence. She rushed
to his side and later accompanied him
to the hospital. At the hospital
Char dlcr recovered Consciousness for
a lew moments, and his first question
was about Cooper. He was not told
Of Cooper's death.
The race itself was full Of thrills,
aside from it's tragic features. De

tied fierccly throughout the 300'miles
and the finish was $50 close that at
first it was announced milford had

Practically all of the land now de- voted to strawberry growing in this state once was covered heavily with forest In clearing this land every thing is removed except the stumps. and if the owner has the time and funds they also are removed before the plants are set. While thorough clearing facilitates the culture and handling of the strawberry field, 1t IS not essential in order to secure a profitable crop of berries. Clearing must be done sufficiently early so the ground can be plowed. disked, harrow. ed and put in the best possible condi' ton before plants are set

GOOD TREE STOCK URGED
w. +. Wcks Advises Nurseryman to
 Buy Trees Near Home.

AS the nurseryman is in the bust. ness to produce first class trees, and as his success usually depends upon the development of good orchards, he should buy his nursery stock from the nearest nursery that carries the qual- ity of goods he desires. In securing nursery stock from a nursery nearby, the orchardist will be more apt to get first quality stock than he would in buying from great distance. It Is also well to plant young trees that are grown under climatic conditions simi- lar to that into which they are to be transplanted The latter however Is not such vital point as some may presume, but it is always we'll to fol- low the rule where possible.
 Plant One Year Old Trees.
 Good nursery stock consists not in the short, stunted. crooked and unhealthy specimens which are sometimes pawned-off by nursery brokers on the uniformed tree planter, but consists rather of lllt SLl dlsHl, ClSdu, Htdlllly, W61l-Ind- tured stock from three to five feet in height with a well formed root sys- tenn. A root system to be we'll formed should possess main root branches uniformly distributed from the center These root branches being crossed or tangled indicate poor growing condi- tions in the nursery and are not de- sirable
 Inspect For Root Disease.
 Watch out for crown gall, hairy root and wooly aphis on the root system. It is advisable to inspect the stock Tn the nursery before buying, making sure that you will receive the same stock and have the nurseryman pack 1t properly in boxes for shipment. Make every effort to see that your trees are true to name.
 Two things that the orchadist should endeavor to make certain is that he gets the stock he wants and that it is of the best quality, and he should also endeavor to get young trees that are grown under climatic conditions similar to that into which 1 they are to be planted.
