Everyone knows that stove is
An implement to be used for the

dates back to 1898 when Count
Rumford first caught the idea Of
enclosing the fuel properly drafted
IN q shallow iron box. The oven
was built above the stove around
the chimney. This left much to be
desired as it's heating was most un-
reliable. Previous to this, cooking
was done on spit for meats. .

SECOND SUGAR
CASE GOES
The DEFENDANT
Chris Hartman Vic
tor in Action

The second sugar case. of the Burton
Equity was tried at Lancaster Mon
day resulting in a verdict for the de-
tense. Gus j. Seipp, secretary of the
local, sued Chris Hartman, Waterloo
farmer. for payment on i've sacks of
sugar plus interest, storage and cart
age This sum was $136.41, plus int
crest, plus $40.
The case came on before Justice
Burrows at two p. N. and for nearly
six hours testimony was taken pro
and con from the following witnesses:
PLAINTIFF. j. Seipp, John Nichols,
John Elwell, Alois Udelhofen, Henry
Hernon. Defense-Chris Hartman,
Ernest Morris, Clyde Potter, Lee
Schaal, Jos. Kohler, John Albee and
Emmett Hartman. The case went be-
fore the jury in the evening and after
five hours of debate they returned a
verdict for Mr. Hartman at 2:15 a. m.
The jurymen were E. Bennett, Ned
Mccoy, Earl Duffy, Max Blackburn,
Lloyd BROKER and w. A. Johnson, all
residents of Lancaster. A similar
case was tried in June in which John
Hartman was the defendant, resulting
in a verdict for the plaintiff for about
$3.50. Cases are pending against Ed.
Schaal and Adam Roschi.
R. M. Orchard represented the
plaintiff Monday and H. E. Carthew
the defense. 1t appeared that in Feb
ruary 1920 the equity decided to order
a carload or 600 sacks of sugar for
distribution among the members. AS
near as the spectator could make out
this sugar was tC come from New York
at Ice pound, fob. tidewater This
deal failed to go through for some
reason and at a special meeting later
a second carload was arranged for at
the then prevailing market price 1t
was voted at the last or special meet
ing to hold all members to their pre-
vious order if they did not change or
cancel the previous order for the Ice
sugar.
Mr.. Carthew for Mr.. Hartman con-
tended that the eight sacks of sugar
ordered by his client was made at the
early meeting with the understanding
he was to get it for Ice pound. He
said he was not at the later meeting
and when the sugar came at the &c
price he declined to take it. Later he
said he took three sacks at the high
price to help out. Mr.. Seipp sued for
payment on the other five sacks.
Mr.. Orchard based his case upon
the action of the meeting binding the
members to their previous order by
majority vote of the body. The de-
Tense contended that party to con-
tract must agree before his share in
the contract could be changed. Evil
IDENTIFY the jury took this view of it
although in the previous case the
other jury took the opposite view.

Wreck Due
to Bur7bLebee

A humble bee flying on the hand of
j. F. Zust of La Crosse, representa-
tive of the Interstate Oil Co., was the
cause of a motor smashup Monday
morning Mr.. Zust is in the Lancaster
hospital with a badly bruised right
foot and injuries to his chest and
face. His car is in the Monitor car
hospital under the care of DR.. Lou
Starr Jr. with its front stove in. Mr..
Gusts condition is bad but he will re-
but DR.. Starr is expert on such cases.
The way it happened was like this:
Mr. Zust was motoring north from
Dubuque where he had spent Sunday
with relatives bound for Lancaster.
At a point south Of the Bailie farm a
humble bee flew in through the win
dow of the Ford coupe and alighted
on Mr.. Zust's right hand. He essayed
to swipe Mr.. Bee away before he was
stung and in so doing took his eyes
away from the road for an instant. The
car left the road and crashed into
stone culvert, stopping with rude
jerk. Mr. Zust doesn't know just
what took place then. He remembers
struggling out of the car and falling
by the road because his leg wouldn't
hold him up. He was found ten min
utes later by Albert Hunsaker who
brought him to Lancaster. The Mon
itor boys went after he car. The Ford
looks natural from the rear but the
front is badly dismantled. Mr.. Zust
was in much pain Monday but able to
describe the accident. No one knows
what became of the humble bee.

Milwaukee, Wis, Nov 26, 1889, and
died in Lancaster, August 8, 1921 at
the age of 81 years, 8 months and Is
days.
The end came after an illness of
year or more. The trouble was due
to hardships and exposure incurred
in the World war overseas.

sufferings with soldierly fortitude,
never complaining. He was known
to his family and friends as man of
unselfish character, tireless ambition
and industry and great loyalty to his

was shown by the interest displayed
by the bank officials in his welfare.

SOY BEAN TOUR In AUGUST.

Last spring several soy bean plots
were planted in various parts of the
county and they have nearly matured
enough for inspection. Mr.. Burris,
Superintendent of the county farm
has an excellent stand in the corn
field north of the road Ernie
Abrams boys, Fenton and Will of

specially in growing soy bean seed,
and a fine stand can be seen just
south of the road Mr.. F. J. Kolar in

two miles southeast of Muscoda. Mr..
Art DiVall two miles west of Mont
fort on trunk road number nineteen
is trying out seven different varieties
Ralph Anderson just north of Fen
nimore on trunk line thirty has also
plot of seven varieties of soy beans.
Their reason for trying out so many
varieties in different parts of the coun-

soil. Christ Hartman in Waterloo
township has a good plot showing
the seven different varieties and j.
H. Kuster on the Potosi road also has
test plot of the seven different varie-
ties.
1t is worth your while to visit one
of the above mentioned places to see
what soy beans are doing in Grant
county and to find out which kind will
grow the best on your farm. There
are many growers of soy beans in
the county and if one of their fields
is closer by than those mentioned try
and see what growth they have made.

the middle of August and a specialist

CIRCUS A POOR AFFAIR.

The Rhoda Royal circus showing
here last Thursday proved to be about
as poor a circus as Lancaster has ever
seen. In the art of getting the money
in various ways the circus showed ex-
traordinary ability. High costs have
simply put the old-fashioned pretty
good" circus out of business. The
present day circus is either a hummer
like Ringlings or almost nothing at
all like the one showing here.
