TWO KILLED IN
 OHIO TORNADO;
 FOUR INJURED
Many Farm Houses Are Wrecked; Property Loss
 Will Run Into Millions; Towns Almost Destroyed

VAN VERT, Ohio, March 1O.-Two persons are known to the dead, an- other is reported, four persons are in a local hospital injured, between 25 and 50 farm homes are completely or partly demolished and scores of barns and outbuildings were blown down by the tornado which swept this county last evening.
 The loss in the county is estimated at from S5O0,O0O to $1,000,0O0. The tornado first struck at Middlefoint, travelling northeast across Harrison, Pleasant and Union Townships.
 Reports received here today say that Continental and Holgate, Ohio, were not wiped out, but that much property damage was done there by the tornado. No lives were reported last at either place.
 The known dead are:
 Rex Lea, aged 12, of MiddIefoint, Harrison township, who was killed instantly when a barn was blown over, and Mrs. Charles Gree, also of Harrison township.
 Of the four injured in local hos pitals, only one, Charles Rike, is be- lieved fatally hurt. Six members of the Showalter family, Tn Harrison township, were seriously injured when their home was demolished. Reports last night said the family had been killed.
 The tornado played queer pranks. Hundreds of chickens were entirely denuded
 Boulders weighing a ton were lifted from fields or creeks and carried many yards.
 Damage in Seneca County
 TIFFTN, Ohio, March 10.-A tor nado visited the west and middle DOT tions of Seneca county early this morning, causing thousands of dol lars worth of damage. Many buildings here were carried from their foundations and set down in adjacent fields.
 In Hancock County
 FINDLAY, Ohio, March 10.-Dam- age estimated at s200,000 was done in Hancock county when the tornado swept through here last evening.

Polk County Prune
Crop Is Promising

Riekreall, Or, July S.-While many
other crops are suffering for want OF
rain, the Polk county prune crop prom
ises to be the largest in the county S
history.
The growers are preparing for the
harvest by overhauling drying equip
ment and arranging for workers for
picking and drying the fruit. School
children will help, as the fall session
will begin late.
A yield which will swell the acre
age in 1919 is assured, according to
reports from the principal districts.
No alarm is felt over the final develop
ment of the fruit. Unlike apple and
cherry trees here, the prune tree suf-
fered from no pests, the frosts which
sometimes kill the blossoms being the
only enemy.
The Kimball orchard near Dallas, one
of the largest in this county, is in
fine condition. The Fenton orchard on
the top Of Mount Pisgah, in the heart
of Polk county, is in excellent condi-
ton.
The orchards are prOspering on the
red soil between Dallas and Falls City
and northwest of Dallas, New orchards
bear about the fifth year. The old
trees are well up to standard this sea-
son.
Favorable reports have come from
the southern districts. p. o. Powell
says the orchard which he set out six
years ago promises a good yield. The
Monmouth Orchards company expects
a huge crop.
Specialists now will care for most of
the crops, private drying establish
ments not being as numerous as for
merly.
A closer and more far reaching or
ganization among the prune growers
seems probable this season, as the in,
dustry is reaching large proportions.
The acreage in prunes new is estimat-
cd at 1920 acres, more than double
that of 1913.

ARM MANGLED in SHREDDER.
BelmOnd Man i'm Serious Condition rs
Result of Accident.

Belmond, Jan. Charles Olson,
while helping shred corn at the An
drew Anderson farm, had his arm
and hand badly injured in the shred
der. He was removing silks from the
rolls when his mitten became caught
in the machine, and his hand and
arm were drawn into the rolls. The
machinery was stopped and an effort
made to release his arm, but it was
wedged too tightly, and the machine
had to be be taken apart. 1t was for
ty-five minutes before his arm was
released. He was taken at once to the
hospital where it was found his hand
and arm was badly crushed. 1t is re-
ported that teta2us has resulted and
the patient is in serious condition.

WHY HE ENLISTED.
Khaki Clad Youth Tells His Reasons
Why.

"How d you happen to go? You
aren't draft age?"
The above question was put up to
a khaki clad youth on railroad train
the other day.
No, he replied, I'm not draft age,
aid | can't say l want to go. I'm not
much on this killing business. But
the more thought about it, the more
/ felt l didn't want to spend the rest
Of my life explaining why WASH t
there"
That fellow came very near ex-
pressing the attitude of millions 1t
is the point of view of most of the
drafted men, who wouldn't be partic-
ularly glad even if they were released
on the ground of physical defects. 1t
has sunk into their hearts that this
is the job of the American people,
and up to the young men in particu-
lar. Those that don't go may have
excellent excuses. But always they
will feel bit on the defensive.
There is great satisfaction to any
active young man in being in the
things that his crowd, and the COM
munity generally are doing. A boy
who went to some war pictures the
other day said the mere sight of
them made him want to be there. He
hated to be digging away in school
with all this thrill and excitement
going on. No live boy likes to have
been home and abed on the night
that bad fire broke loose in the
town. Next morning he looks pretty
sheepish when all the other kids ex-
change observations.
So the men who run to this greatest
of all fires, will have subjects for
conversation and mutual interest for
a life time. 1t will be tie of COM
mon experience binding men togeth-
err. They will be a class by them
selves, kind of American aristocra-
cy based not on money or birth, but
service. Those who were relieved of
the duty, or who lodged it, will feel
like the boy who slept over the fire.

TO ORGANIZE APPLE GROWERS.
Greater Iowa Association Meets to
Promote Branch of HOrticul-
ture.

Waterloo, Jan. IA plan to or
ganize the apple growers of Iowa, i'm
prove the product and advertise it
and create a market thruout the
country will be put into execution by
the Greater Iowa Association, accord
ing to the annual report OF Wood
worth Clum, secretary of the associa-
ton. This report was received by
Charles Van Week of the Waterloo
Commercial Club Saturday.
The report asserts that the quail
ity of the Iowa apples is unusually
good. it is found better than many
that are shipped into the state from
great distance. There has been no
concerted action of local Iowa grow
ers to boost the product and make it
known throughout the country and
create demand for it.
Meetings will be held in various
sections of the state the early part oil
1918 to further discuss the proposed
plans. The report for 1917 shows
the activities of the association, indi
eating it is accomplishing its purpose
of making Iowa aid its cities better
known to Iowans and creating a state
spirit which will accrue to the benefit
of all.
