CAPE WOMAN RAISES
HOMEGROWN ORANGES
Mrs. H. c. Osterloh Rears Ten on
Tree in Kitchen at her Home and
They Look Like Store
Article.

Throughout the sleet storm that
held the Cape and surrounding coun-
try in its grasp for the last few days
when everything has been frozen up
tight, oranges, fruit of tropical
chimes whose ripening demand the kiss
of a sun hot with Florida tincture,
have been slowly, surely reaching the
mellow stage where eating is a pleas
ure, in the home of Mrs. H. V. Oster-
loh, at 317 Good Hope street, Cape
Girardeau.
Mrs. Osterloh's oranges are grown
on a real live orange tree that stands
about two feet and a half high at
the center, but what it lacks in height,
it makes up in width for it is larger
around than a tub.
The tree, which is perfectly formed,
is ripening ten oranges, everyone the
size of those that may be purchased in
the Cape at any grocery. The sun
necessary comes in through the kit
chen window at the Osterloh home,
and the Florida tincture is added by
the stove near at hand. The oranges
are being fooled, so to speak.
Mrs. Osterloh has announced that
her homegrown oranges are not 60
ing to be picked or eaten for long
time.

THOS. S. LILLY Will
ERECT new BUILDING
Commission Man to Have Twin
Buildings With Track
Between Them.

Thomas S. Lilly, the -four and grain
commission man, will erect an addition
to his building at William street and
the c. G. n. Railway tracks in the
spring, he announced yesterday.
The building will stand to the east
of the present structure leaving
enough room between the two build
ings to permit trains to back in and
pass out. The buildings will be join
ed by an overhead pasSageway, so
that it will be possible to go from one
to the other without having to go out
side.
The new building will be used for
storing hay and other feed, which Mr..
Lilly is not able to take care of in
his present quarters. A switch will
be laid from below the building north
to William street, in order to facili-
tate the loading and unloading of
freight cars.
Owing to the low condition Of the
ground where the new building is to
be located, it will be necessary to build
it on top of cement pillars, which will
be sunk at the bottom of the hollow
and built up to the level of the street.
The cost of the Improvement has
not yet been ascertained, but it prob
ably will amount to more than $1,000.
Work on the addition will be begun as
soon as winter is over.

Local Basketball Five Takes St.
Louis Team To Second
Trimming.

The Courleux basket ball machine
last night repeated its performance
of Friday, when the Norinals trimmed
the Brothers of Christian Brothers
College by score Of SO to IS. The
double victory on the BASKET ball court
for the local five virtually wipes out
the sting of the football defeat the
Brothers administered to the Normal's
eleven last fall.
The Normal five Won their game on
teamwork. The st. Louis aggrega-
ton lost because they failed to play
together. The passing of the Normal
boys was brilliant in many parts of
the game and the sacrifice of personal
honor for the benefit of sure goal by
one their teammates was q trait of
the playing of all the men.
The Normals jumped into the lead at
the outset of the game and never
were headed At the close of the first
half, the score was q 10 :.
The members of the c. C. team
lost many goals because they tried
long shots that failed to 90 true, when
their own team mates had positions on
the court closer to the basket and with
a better opportunity to score.
The Normal boys however, proved
themselves adopts at passing the ball
to a man uncovered who worked in

sphere through the ring.
A large crowd attended the game
and gave both teams several ovations
when brilliant work was performed.
