FINE MATINEE RACING FOR
HARTFORD ON JULY FOURTH,

Another of the racing matiuees
which have contributed to the popular
ity of the track at the Hartford fair
grounds will be held on July 4, with
the largest field of horses that has ever
been gathered at matinee event in
the county.
The track has been a popular rendez
vous for horsemen for the past month.
Sixteen horses. owned by various
horsemen in southwestern Michigan
have been in training there, having
been attracted by the excellent condi
tion of the Hartford track this spring.
At least dozen more are expected for
the Fourth and the matinee will mark
the formal opening of the racing season
in this section of the state.
Four speed events are scheduled
with total purses aggregating 1925, and
the field of starters will be sufficiently
large to afford full afternoon of sport
the racing to start at one o'clock.
A number of improvements have
been made at the fair grounds this
spring, including an addition to the
grand stand accommodations and the
improvements of the stalls in the speed
department.
Aside from the matine races, Hart
ford will stage day of music and
patriotic features on the Fourth. The
House Of David band of Benton Har-
Dor, will furnish music all day, and
will conclude with a patriotic concert
at night. These long haired" musi-
clans are among the best in this section
of the state and their presence always
contributes TO the success of gala
day.
Hartford has always entertained n
crowd at it's matinees on the Fourth,
and the unusual field of horses in pros
pect should make the coming event
one of the most popular IN the history
of the Hartford track Despite the
"H. c. L." the admission to the races
will be maintained at 25 cents.

The u. s. authorities at Washington
have sent out notices warning shippers
to get in all the fruit packages they
will need at once to avoid serious loss.
The railroads will haul packages now,
but later 1t will tax their resources to
handle the fruit, produce and supplies
which. must be handled. This is
mighty serious question, and should re-
ceive the immediate attention OF all
fruit growers. 1t will be nothing short
of calamity to raise a fine crop OF
fruit, and be unable to market 1t on ac-
count of shortage of packages in which
to ship. Don't let this hapen, act now.

VAN BUREN COUNTY cow TEST
ING ASSOCIATION VISITED
MANY DAIRY HERDS AT LAST
MEETING.
DAIRY SPECIALIST PRESENT
Demonstrations given in Mr.. Dahl's
Fine Herd of Guernseys. Another
like Association to be formed in
County.

The members Of the Van Buren,
County Cow Testing Association held
their regular quarterly meeting, maxi
ing an automobile trip over the county,
visiting some of the members1 farms
and looking over their dairy herds.
Nearly all the members, with their
wives, were present, starting from
Lawrence at o'clock a. m, and going
to the farm of n. c. Dahl, where they
were entertained by Mr. and Mrs. Dahl
with a very fine dinner, which was
served under the trees and was greatly
enjoyed by all those present. After
the dinner, an inspection trip was
taken over the farm, and through the
barns, ending in the field with Mr.
Dahls very fine herd of Guernsey
cows, where a dairy COW judging dem
onstration was given by j. H. Waldron,
Dairy Specialist, Extension Division,
| NJ. A. G.
After the demonstration, which
proved very interesting TO the men,
the party left and drove to Mr.. Ralph
Sherman's fine dairy farm near South
Haven. At Mr.. Shermans another
| judging demonstration was given. This
time; five cows were selected from the
herd by Mr. Waldron and the different
members of the association were called
upon to act as judges, on the basis Of
the points brought out by Mr. Waldron
| in the demonstration given at Mr..
Dahls. This was the interesting fea-
ture of the days program, as the men,
bers of the association, without any
| knowledge of the records of the cows,
showed that they were very apt pupils
in selecting, or judging the points of
good dairy cow. All of them picked
at least the best COWS, while not all OF
them possibly would have been judged
highest for dairy type.-showing that
they had shown very close attention to
Mr.. Waldron's work at the other dairy
farm
The members of the association
were much interested in Mr.. Sherman's
milking machine which was put in op-
Grafton for their benefit. Mr. and Mrs.
Sherman entertained the members
with lunch before leaving.
All the members of the association
were very highly pleased with their
days outing and before closing had
voted to hold their next meeting with
picnic at Gravel Lake, and are to be
entertained by Mr. and Mrs. Carl
Bartlett and Mr.. and Mrs Joel Clark,
Of Porter township.
Aside from the value that the men,
hers are getting from having an Off
cial record kept of their cows, it is
bringing people together from the diff
ferent parts of the county who are in
terested in the agriculture of the coun-
ty and they are becoming personally
acquainted, and this will prove OF
great value, not only to the members
Of the association, but to the whole
county as well.
1t is hoped that a second organiza-
ton may be perfected in this county,
as there is certainly room for one
more, there being large dairy interests
in the north part of the county which
have not been reached as yet for the
purpose of organization into associa-
tions.

Fine Program of Sports. Keen con-

The crowds began to arrive early
and by twelve o'clock fully 1000 peo-
pie were on the grounds. More came
in the afternoon, and the grove and
beach literally swarmed with people.
Not single accident happened to mar
the pleasure of the day, although ii
will not be surprising if quite a num-
ber of folks are under the doctors
care as a result of efforts to clear the
tables of their load of good things to
eat. But the writer was there, and
even if that is true, he knows that it
was worth the price.

carried out according to schedule with

Patriotic and Loyal Response
BY Citizens Of Van Buren County Appeal for Red
Cross Funds.

The citizens of Van Buren county
are responding literally to the human
itarian appeal for Red Cross funds,
and the drive is still on. Van Buren's
share was s20,00000, and by Saturday
night, the amount will be considerably
over-subscribed. The response in
Paw Paw has been especially crafty
ing. The total amount subscribed as
we go to press is $4,631.5O, which,
with the sum already raised by the
ladies', makes approximately s5325 sub
scribed by the citizens of Paw Paw
and vicinity. 1t has been "a disap-
pointment to the committee to find
few (and only few, thank the Lord)
who are abundantly able to give, but
have refused to do So Some of these
may. yet have a change Of heart, and
if not the money will be raised any
way. 1t is hard however to under
stand why any one can conscientiously
refuse to give something for an appeal
of this kind.
The local committee submits the fol-
lowing report
To the citizens of Paw Paw, Waverly
and Almena:
Very recently the President of the
United States appealed to the patriot
ism of the American citizens and re-
quested a popular subscription Of
500, 900 for the Red Cross Society
to be used under the supervision of
the government in taking care OF sick
and wounded soldiers
The undersigned were appointed a
committee for the purpose of securing
subscriptions.
During the past few days the COM
mittee with other citizens have been
soliciting contributions but have not
been able to see many who undoubt-
edly will be willing and anxious to
give to such a worthy cause and
thereby assist.
No more personal requests will be
made, but cards will be found at the
First National Bank, Paw Paw Saw
| ings Bank, w. j. Warner grocery store,
Longwell Bros, O'Grady Bros. Co,
Eaton e Mosier, Maple City Grocery,
also with each member of the commit
tee.
Remember your country is calling
for your help. If YOU can contribute
and refuse or neglect your patriotism
is ebbing and you are not awake to
the imperative necessity which promt-
ed the Presidents call
No contributions will be accepted
after Saturday of this week You
must act now
A list of those who have already
contributed appears in this issue Of
the paper.
The names of all those who contri-
butte between now and Saturday to-
gether with the amount Of the contri-
button, will be published next week;
also the names of those who have been
solicited and have refused to contri-
butte.
