The biennial August farce, or more

off in Medina with all the solemn still

But in Wadsworth enough noise and
excitement prevailed, and does yet, =,
offset the painful lack of sound and
fury at home.
The trouble came through the con
test for the mayoralty. The present
incumbent, F. w. Boyer, Republican,
had as party opponent for the nomi-
nation ]. c. Whitlam. The friends
Of both men were active in their be-
half all day. When the ballots were
counted, the summary sheets disclos-

retains Attorney Frank Woods to rep
resent his interests before the election
board at Medina and Whitlam follows
suit with Attorney Sadler Of Wads-
worth.
When the election board counted
and tailed the ballots Wednesday
morning they found shortage Of sew
en- ballots in Boyer's favor and other
discrepancies that would give the cleo
tion to Boyer by two votes. The DIFF
ference arose over the votes In Pre-

At first the board of elections ex-
pressed the opinion that they had no
choice IN the matter but to-decide ac-
cording to their finding. But when
they expressed this opinion it called
forth all the latent energy that At
torney Sadler could conjure in which
he declared that the board had no
right to determine the validity of GER
tain ballots where there was clear
ly drawn issue to the question.
At this juncture the board asked the
attorneys to Withdraw while the form

session, in which Prosecutor Seymour
participated.

the board 70 refer the case to the De

GROWING MILK SURPLUS
TO BRING LOWER PRICE

present indications are that there
will be surplus of milk in the Cleve-
land territory for many months to
come. However, daily we hear of
producers who are increasing their
herd. Every Increase in the number
OF cows producing milk for this mar
ket will undoubtedly result in a cor
responding decrease in the price of
milk
Surplus during 1922 will be based in
the average shipments during the last
six months of 1921. If however, the
basic milk thus determined exceeds
the demand for whole milk the basic
amount will be cut to meet the de-
mands. Thus if in March, 1922, the
demand is only equal to 80 per cent. Of
the basic milk as fixed by&the ship
ments for the six months, then each
shipper will be allowed only 80 per
cent of the basic amount.
August prices for milk all over the
country are practically the same as
July. : The future prices depend abb
solutely on production and consump-
ton. N
Producers declare that production
will never become profitable until a
large per cent. of the farmers know
more about the cost of production.

COUNTY SW|PED
By BAD STORM
Barns Upset, Burned, Groves
Demolished, Cemeteries
Wrecked.
LIGHTNING STUNNED
TWO GRANGER MEN
Storm the Most Widespread and
Devasting that Has Visited
Medina in
Years.


-One of the most violent storms that
has invaded this region in a long
time passed over the northeastern half
of Medina county last Saturday night
about $50 o'clock, grazing Medina vii
lage land carrying destruction in its
wake.
The storm appears to have been far
reaching in its scope, devastating ter
ritory for miles beyond Cleveland
along the lake shore.
Much damage was reported in the
vicinity OF Strongsville, and approach
ing this way it blew barn off its
foundation on the Smith farm east oi
Stony hill; uprooted or otherwise dc.
stroyed nearly thousand trees in the
maple grove of Irwin Wilkinson in
Hinckley; upset tombstones and broke
down trees in the cemetery at Ben
nett"s Corners, and unroofed the
store.
In Brunswick the big orchard of
Richard Fritz was nearly destroyed,
besides several large trees in the front
yard were blown down. The top OF
the barn on Calvin Brant's farm was
displaced, and on the farm of George
Strong the shingles were torn from
the house several trees uprooted, and
large shed blown several feet from
its foundation.
At Remsen's Corners the barn of
Seth Dean was struck by lightning
and burned to the ground.
In Granger Lightning struck the
barn of l.. H. Renner, knocking down
Mr.. Renner and Harry, also several
cows. Neither of the Renners was
injured, nor the barn destroyed.
In Medina from the covered bridge
east for a couple of miles no less than
thirty-seven telephone poles on the
Ohio State Telephone Co.'s line were
snapped off like pipe stems, delaying
service in that direction until the
following day, when a temporary cable
was placed in operation.
The storm was made up of the COM
bined elements of wind rain and cleo.
tricity, during the height of which the
barn of Homer Watkins, about sixty
rods west of Fenn's Corners, was
struck by lightning and burned to the
ground. The building was a new
one and the NOW filled with hay which
also was consumed. The stables not
having been finished the live stock
were not in the barn at the time. The
Medina fire department responded wit
its chemical apparatus, but arrived too
late to be of any service other than
protecting the dwelling and other
farm buildings from the burning barn
A huge stack Of straw not far. from
the barn was destroyed. TIE barn
was insured.

TO EXTEND CIRCULATION

The Medina Sentinel is conceded
to be the best weekly paper in this
