THE CUBS TAKE !.
SHUTOUT GAME

In a game featured by good pitch
ing by Bell, the new Hi-Liner pitch
err, and wild throws by the same play
err, the Watertown Cubs took the first
game Of a two game series from the
Hi-Liners by the shutout route yester-
day evening, getting the long end OF
a S to 0 score. The score did net start
until the third inning when, with two
men down, Stan1aert connected foe a
double. The hit was really a short
single but Hart, il going ate" the
fly, slipped and misse>! connections.
However he he,d Standaect to two
bags. Mokate, neavy hitting mana
ger followed with high, long fly.
Hart went after that one and mis-
judged it, the ball going over his head
and giving Mokate homerun, scoring
two runs. In the last half of that in
ming Corner connected for a single
and went to second on Bells single.
He then went to sleep and walked off
the bag while Trummer, second base
man, still held the ball. He was tag
ged out. No scores were made until
the seventh when Herring got single,
Trummer struck out, Knybel singled
and scored Herring. In the eighth Lee
wan singled, Weber struck out, An
derson singled and Lewan came home
on Corners wild throw to third. In
the ninth Trummel got pass and
Knybel sacrificed. Bell made wild
throw to second to catch Trummer
and he landed on third. A single by
Standaert put him over the plate for
the final counter of the game.
| Bell pitched a mighty good game,
striking out ten men. However he
was erratic at times hitting two men
with pitched balls, handing out two
passes and making two wild throws to
second. He has not pitched ball for
ten days until Yesterday and playing
on a field new to him coupled with
the fact that he has not been working
steady no doubt contributed to his en-
| rors. However, we believe that he
will be valuable addition to the team
as he has lots of speed, good control
and good break on the ball.
! The same two teams play again at
6:15 tonight and it is probable that
the score might be changed to our IA
vor No announcement is made as to
tonight's pitcher but Enger will prob
ably be the choice for the hurting
honors.

The fire alarm sounded last nigh

The fire alarm sounded last night
about 100 o'clock and the department
was called to the residence occupied
by the Art Olson family on East Hell
ena avenue. Thru a confusion in the
signals the department made the run
to the west end Of the city first and
were forced to come back to the east
end. The fire was caused by an over
heated electric iron. From particulars
at hand it seems that Mrs. Olson had
been ironing during the evening and
had retired without turning off the
current in the iron. The iron burned
through the ironing board and dropped
into the clothes basket underneath,
setting fire to the clothes therein.
When discovered the fire had gained
considerable Roadway and the delay
in the arrival of the department thru
the confusion in the signals resulted
in a damage of about 100000 to the
house and contents.

That the farmers of the county are
doing something more than putting in
wheat is demonstrated from a little
talk we had with c. A. Anderson, of
the Right Price Mercantile Company
yesterday. They have cream sta
ton in the store which requires the
time Of one man all the time to look
after and sometimes two men. He
said last Saturday we paid out in
cash for cream $685. at this store
alone and he figured that E. A.
Koontz paid out a like amount, in all
he thought that at least one thousand
dollars was paid out o"the farmers
for cream in this city last Saturday
What is being done here is being done
at other towns in the county and
shows that quite a lot Of money is
being secured by the farmers to help
them out in these tight times by the
sale of their cream-it is a sure win
|ner, keep it up.

F. B. King is meeting with unusual
success in a plan he is following to
rid his lawn of dandelions. Since the
dandelion is spelling so many local
lawns many will be particularly inter-
ested in the means followed by Mr..
King, which have been so successful.
Mr.. King ran across bulletin, issued
by the University of Wisconsin ten or
twelve years ago. Request for more
of these bulletins was of no avail,
since the book is out of print now.
But this old bulletin recommended the
use of iron sulphate, two pounds mix
ed with one gallon of water, to be
sprayed over the lawn. Mr.. King has
given this plan very good test and
finds it killing the dandelions and not
injuring the grass in the least. The
spraying has been done with COM
mon Paris green sprayer. Mr.. King
used method in his work, using ropes
which formed narrow alleys across
his lawn to guide him in such fash
ion as would enable him to thorough
ly cover the area with the spray. Iron
sulphate is not expensive, selling at
about fifteen cents a pound, and the
determination of the dandelion is
therefore not costly.-Griggs County
Sentinel Courier.

The chin whiskered, "be gosh" far
mer has been a popular conception of
the rural dweller for long time and
vaudeville performers would try and
lead you to believe that the most mod
ern entertainment enjoyed by the far
mer was the reading of last years al
manac. That that species has been
relegated to the dim and distant past
is evidenced by the fact that the edi-
tor received an invitation this morn
ing to radio concert and barn dance
to be held II miles south of Casselton
on June 9th. Any new invention that
has escaped our modern agricultural-
.ist would be hard to find.

Grant is one of the county's most
progressive farmers, is always abreast

ceive the nomination quite easily, il
the voters in his district want rea-
man as their representative, and will

There are several motor boats on
the river and it is a popular diversion
for the owners of these boats to trav-
ell up the river on these warm days.
However, the pleasure of the trip is
marred somewhat by the fact that
there have been carcasses of several
dead animals deposited on the bank
|of the river few miles above the
city, the stencil from the carcasses
spelling the trip for considerable dis
lance. We do not know just whether
the law applies to this condition OF
not but if it does the authorities
should see that the carcasses are re-
moved as they are, in additionl to be-
ing disagreeable, a distinct menace to
the health of the community.
