Arizona. Tickets will be on
sale July 1st, with a return
limit to July 5th. This will al

Professor Cleveland Able, Father Of
Weather Bureau, Dies After a
Year Of illness.

Washington.-Prof Cleveland Able
known as 1.-The father OF the weather
bureau" died after an illness OF a
year. The present-day system of daily
weather forecasts, with which every
portion of the United States, however
remote, is now thoroughly familiar,
is the outgrowth of a weather-predic-
ton service which Cleveland Able
established locally in Cincinnati, o.,
when he was the director of the OBJ
servatory there, in 1869.
The son of a New York merchant,
and born Dec. 3, 1898, Cleveland Able

and astronomy at the University of
Michigan in 1860 and during the Civil
war period, he was an aide at Cam
bridge, Mass, to DR.. B. A. Gould, then
astronomer Of the United States coast
survey. The years 1866 he spent

as guest of the resident staff OF OBJ
servers there, and on his return to

According to Mike Heating, cow
boy employed on the ranch OF J. d.

can begin to compare with stroke OK

fence when n bolt came kiting along
and knocked him over. He was I'M
conscious for several hours, and 1t was
thought for a time he was done for.
Finally he opened his eyes and looked
about him, and his first words were:
"Say, you all, get me something to
eat mighty quick. I'm just about starv-
ing"
In the group around the cot was

hard time he had experienced for many
months in trying to tempt Keatngs
dainty appetite and not arouse the
pains Of which the cowboy was eter-
nally complaining.

and a piece of buttered toastf" In
Quired cookie.
"I want some real grub. Bring on q
stew of meat, beans and as much other
fodder as you can stir up"

been able to stow away for many
months, and what is more, he is keep

NORTHERN PART OF
STATE PROSPEROUS
THE POTATO YIELD is LARGE
AND RECORD PRICES ARE
BEING PAID FARMERS.
FRUIT CROP ABOVE AVERAGE
The Federal Government Reports
Shortage of over 100000
Bushels Of Potatoes.

Traverse City.-Northern Michigan
potatoes have hit the high-water
mark and the indications are that
growers in this part of the state will
realize an average OF well over a dol
lar for their entire stock. This means
not only recuperating of losses
brought about by the disastrous
season of last year, but actual pros
perity for farmers in this section. The
fruit crop this season was well over
the average, grains have been good
beans we're never higher, and now the
potato crop with the attendant de-
mand and the sky-high prices, serves
to fittingly crown what is, all things
considered, probably the most pros
porous season in the history of nor
thern Michigan agriculture.
This season, however, many other
potato growing sections of the coun
try have been struck by such adverse
weather conditions that their crops
have been curtailed considerably, and
in some cases, almost entirely de
stroyed. The federal government re
ports a potato shortage in the country
OF over 100000 bushels. To make
this up will tax the more unfortunate
sections to their capacity.
Another reason for the extraordi
nary figure is the fact that beans are
bringing form 81 to S. per bushel. The
relative food value of the potato and
bean is such that potatoes at ever
60 cents a peck, or cents pound
are cheaper to the ordinary consume
than beans at So a bushel. For this
reason an added demand is put upol
the tuber output.

Concession Comes After the King
Had Refused to Grant II to the

Athens.-King Constantine, it Is Of
ficially announced, has offered to re-

looked upon as menace in their

the Third and Fourth army corps
from Thessaly, and the Sixteenth
from the Epirus to the Peloponesus,
the southern Greek peninsula. The
transfer is to begin on November g..
There will be left behind only enough
men to maintain order. His conces-
sion comes after the king had refused
to grant it on the insistence-almost
the order--of the French military at
tache. 1t followed a recent series OF
visits by allied ministers to
the royal palace. 1t is significance, it
is believed here, is that King Con-
stantine will soon be found co-operat-

ITEMS OF STATE INTEREST

Commission men show no hesitancy
In admitting the price of produce in
Detroit is higher than In any other
large city In the United States. Com
parative price lists show that many
vegetable products have been advanc-
ed in price from 100 to 500 per cent
since last year Local conditions are
held mostly responsible, although the
war and poor crops are contributing
factors.
The board OF control of Jackson
prison after meeting with Gov. Ferris
at Lansing Is no nearer the selection
of a successor to Warden Nathan
simpson, whose resignation becomes
effective Jan. /, than II was before
the meeting was held.
Construction work for which per
mits we're taken out In Detroit during
