HANCOCK ADDRESSES
DETROIT GARDENERS.

IN speaking Oh the dOu.eSS OI ".
Hancock of Chasscll to the Detroit
Market Growers Association, the De
trcit Courier says:
"There is nothing new in using
peat as soil builder or as fertil-
izer filler, experiments and practical
workings along these lines having
been carried on for more than half a
century. However, owing to the fact
that Michigan contains more peat
bogs than any state in the un-
ion. with a sufficient supply Of this
natural resource to last centuries, the
talk of Mr.. Claude F. Hancock touch
ing upon this subject before the De-
troit Market Growers Association
was more than interesting. Mr.. Han
cock is president Of the National HUI
mus and Chemical Company of Chas-
sell, Mich, one Of whose products is
called 'Humasoil,' which is in reality
a fertilizer built out Of raw peat with
such ingredients added as may be re-
quired to fill all demands under stat
ed conditions. AS explained by Mr..
Hancock, in this form Of fertilizer
there is no sand or Stag filler, the en-
tire article being composed OF mater
ial needed and beneficial in building
up the land and the name really char
acterizes the article. 'Humasoip is
just Michigan peat, of which this
state has nearly million acres, treat
ed SO that moisture is removed and
then chemicals added to build same
up to the required formula.
'Humasoil', explained Mr.. Han
cock, to the truck gardeners, has been
thoroughly tested in leading agricul-
tural laboratories of this country and
pronounced practical and superior to
the average fertilizer where the base
or filler is just plain sand CT some
other substance Of no value to the
soil. Where this simon pure Michi-
gan product, Humasoil, is little in
advance of barnyard manure as soil
builder is that it contains neither
plant disease spores nor weed seed,
making it Of particular value to men
in the gardening business, where those
two elements create lot Of labor as
we'll as build up the loss account.
".The analysis of Humasoil, as well
as the numerous demonstrations that
have been made in its use during re-
cent years, prove very conclusively
that it is, the very bed prepared by
nature for the development OF bac-
terra, the plant builders who must be
full Of vigor to produce results for the
agriculturists. Bacteria finds in
Humasoil, or peat, the very elements
and all of them upon which it thrives,
which is another way of saying that
this one article Is an incubator for
the propagation of soil workers.
Before the coming crop season,
Mr.. Hancock promised the market
gardeners that he would have in De-
troit distributing warehouse so that
their needs could be supplied, and
number Of them promised him to give
the new natural product Of Michigan
a fair trial upon an extensive scale
during the coming crop season"

The preliminary game between the
Amazons and Tigers was well played
and evenly contested. Through an
errors the scorekeeper credited the
Tigers with one more point than they
really were entitled to, the game fin
ishing 15 to Ia in this manner, when
it should have been a tie. The girls
will meet again in the near future,
and we may expect to see the feath-
ers fly. i
The City basketball tea-1 was de-
feated by the Ford Miners at Michi-
CANINE last Saturday evening by the
score of AZ to z. ..-hich although a
large score, is as good as other teams
have been able to do in Michigamme
this season.
The Miners have wonderful team,
and are well deserving of any praise
as to their playing abilities. Howev-
er visiting teams are greatly handi-
capped in the Michigamme hall by
the dim gas lights. L'Anse played
Michigamme to 15-5 score at the
end Of the first half, but in the latter
period the results Of harder training
began to count for the Miners. The
local team expects>to bring the Ford
Miners here the latter part of Feb
ruary.
Weather permitting, the Pequam-
ing and L'Anse hickey teams will
meet at L'Anse Sunday afternoon in
the premier contest of the season.
This game will be the first of Sc
ries between the two teams.
Both teams are confident of win
ing, and she sure is going to be one
grand old game.
The Pequaming team will bring the
town along with them to see the con-
test and it is certain that L'Anse will
turn out to an individual to help the
home boys by persuasion. We venture
to say that our new rink will not be
able to accommodate the crowd that
will be On hand to witness the bat
tie for supremacy. ~
No thanks, we don't want the job
refereeing this game.

London, May 18th. The refusal by the
United States to participate in the pro-
posed continuance Of the Genoa Confer

the proposed meeting at the Hague was

FIERY CROSS ILLUMINATION
is OBSERVED IN AN OLD FIELD
"A FEW MILES NORTH OF CITY

In two or three instances cars
approached the entrance to the
field but were not permitted to
enter. Occasionally cars left the
field, going in different directions
from the weird scene only to re-
turn. Perhaps they were scouts sent
out upon some mystic mission.
Apparently perfect order charac-
terized the entire session; at least
nothing is known of any plans that
were made or for what purpose the
meeting was held and the only
suggestion that it was, perhaps,
a session Of a XII Klux Khan was the
manner in which it was conducted,
closely conforming to reports of
similar gatherings held in other
communities as appearing in news
paper accounts. According to state
mcnts published in the Little Rock
and other newspapers of Arkansas,
practically every county in the
state is credited with possessing an
organization of the mystic order
of the invisible empire" as it is
termed in newspaper reports.

Trio Charged With
Pine Bluff Robberies

Pine Bluff, July 29.--Three me-
groes were arrested Thursday night
in connection with wholesale rob-
.heries OF lumber and building ma
tGrials from the Pine Bluff Lumber
Company, which it is alleged thieves
have been hauling of by the wagon
load. Two Of the negroes were re-
leased on bond, but the third is be-
ing held for further investigation.
He claims that another negro who
was working the same game used
an automobile truck in hauling
away the materials which he would
steal. The former used one-horse
wagon. Officials of the lumber COM
pany could not say what the extent
of their losses would be. They knew
nothing Of the practice until they
ware notified by the police. 1t Is
believed that as many as five or six
houses are under construction out OF
materials furnished BY the thieves.

cans among those present.
There have been hundreds of
Americans who have come to Eu-
rope to flaunt thir wealth in the
faces of the still war-impoverished
Europeans.
Causes Unfriendhncss.
This does not make for friend
ly feeling toward the United States
and causes the deepest disgust among
those Americans who are anxious
that their country shall be truly rep
resented on this side of the water.
There have been too many Amer
leans who have figurd in the police
court news in London this summer.
The London press never fails to fea-
ture the case of the American who
over-imbibes and gets into the tolls,
and those who don't get into the
tolls but make public scenes that cause
a great deal of comment among the
English people. who look upon pro-
hibition and drunkenness as great
curses.
The American stage has been
terribly misrepresented in England
and particularly in the English
vaudeville theatres. There are
American acts now headlined on
English vaudevill circuits that have
never seen the light of any theatre
out of the tank circuits and the
English theatregoer is pretty skepti-
cal OF any performance that is label
ed t"American. There have been
some excellent American performers
come to England, but there have
been many more who should have
been kept at home.
The impression of America that
Europe is gathering from the post
war American influx is poor one,
