TWO GOOD. GAMES
Of Basket BALL
Both Girl and Boy Teams Of
Wi!Imar High Win From
PaynesVI|Ie.


evening played at the high school by
the local Boys and Girls teams with
the Paynesville teams proved to be
very exciting and interesting for being
the first games of the season. A large
crowd attended, the total proceeds
amounting to thirty-six dollars.
The first game was played between
the two girls teams. The Willmar
girls played one of the best games
played here for long time. At the
conclusion of the game, the score be-
ing 6-6, an extra five minutes was CIV
en-. During this time, Estelle Lund-
quist and Ethel Bergeson shot two
baskets apiece making tile score 14-6
in favor Of Willmar. At the tie of the
game, Estelle Lundquist and Ethel
Bergeson had each shot one basket
apiece and Ethel had also two fouls.
E. r. Bender refereed the first half
and O'Rourke Of Paynesville the Sec
ond half.
Following was the lineup for the
Girls team: Ethel Bergeson, F.: E.
telle Lundquist, F.; Buena Aarvig, J.
c.; Minnie Olson, A. c.; Ethel Mckee,
G.; Lulu Falkingham, c.: June Ger
man substituted for Minnie Olson in
the second half.
The second game Of the evening was
played by the Boys teams. This prov
ed to be a rather hard battle for the
local boys, but the score was 1919 in
their favor at the conclusion Of the
game. The one thing that assisted
the local boys was the lead they got
in the first half of the game, the score
being 1910 at the end of the first half.
The second period resulted in 81 in
favor Of the Paynesville boys. The 10.
cal boys put up a very good game al.
tho they have not had by any means
the practice the Paynesville team has
Kleve and Beese each made a clean
basket from near the middle of the
floor. Two Of the local boys, Erick
son and Beese, made three personal
fouls while the losers made only 8
few.
Schultz got two baskets and nine
fouls, and Binder shot three baskets
for Paynesville. Kleve shot two bias
kets and one foul, Lundquist six has
kets and four fouls and Beese, one
basket.

There is no mystery about
building a satisfactory storage
house for sweet potatoes. South
ern farmers who are paying large
prices for patented plans and
equipment alleged to provide the
only successful way of storing
sweet potatoes, are being de-
frauded. Specialists of the Uni
ted States Department Of Agricnl-
ture whose attention recently has
been called to instances in which
farmers have paid as high as $3.50
for sets Of plans. do not hesitate
to brand such activities as plain
humbuggery. Plans Of houses
that incorporate the simple prime
iples Of storage and common-sense
methods Of construction, and
which have proved successful by
years Of careful trial, are fur

Agriculture at Washington to
any farmer who will ask for
them.

NEW WATER HEATER.

A heater for running water has been
devised by which a single faucet MAJ
be made to run either hot or cold.
The heater is electrical, and can be
fastened to any faucet. A flexible
cord runs to an electric light socket,
and three seconds after the current
on, the water from the fucet is running
hot. AS soon as the current is
switched off, the water begins to run
cold again, so that either hot or cold
water may be had by the turn of a
finger. The only weakness of the de-
vice is that the water must run very
slowly-about one quart a minute
when it is wanted at high tempera-
ture.

Soap an Antiseptic.

Some medical authorities, explaining
the abatement of epidemic diseases in
recent years, are sufficiently free from
professional ties to attribute this bet
ternieuI of conditions not to medical
science, but to the increased use Of
soap and water. Many medical author
tiles hold the opinion that with a clean
house and a clean person no one need
have much fear Of infection. A writer
in the New York Medical Record says
Soap is now recognized to be anti
septic and to be efficacious must pro-
duce a lather. Bacteria rubbed into
soap or dropped on its surface are in
capable Of multiplication. The typhoid
bacillus Is very sensitive to soap, being
killed by 8 per cent solution In a
short time. More than half the total
number will die In a minute. The
thorough use Of a pure potash soap is
not only mechanical method Of cleans
ing, but is an active favor in cutting
