FAILS TO FIND BODY
Hydroplane at Trout Lake
Spent Months Search AT
ter Recovery of Body.


The attempt to recover the body
of r. G. McGrew of Omaha who
was drowned in Trout lake .on
June 23rd, by the use of a hydro
plane, had to be abandoned last
week after a lengthy search. The
Minocqua Times has the following
to say:
After spending almost month
searching the waters and bottom
of Trout Lake for the body of Mr..
R. G. McGrew who had drowned
here June 23rd, Pilots E. E. LaParle
and ]. H. Miller of the Edgewater
Beach Air Service, Chicago, are
about to return to that place. 1t
is planned, however, to spend Sat
urday and Sunday, July, % and 20,
carrying passengers on sightseeing
flights, due to many requests from
tourists and residents of the To-
cality. 1t is understood that the
rate will be reasonable.
The aviators came up to this
place in about four hours flying
time, but were delayed by forced
landing in the Menominee river,
due to motor trouble. After max
ing repairs they proceeded to up
per Twin lake where they landed
at Phelps, for gasoline and oil.
From that point it was but a few
minutes flight to Trout Lake.
The plane was brought to Trout
lake because it is possible to dis
tinguish objects under the water
and on the bottom down to a
depth of a hundred feet when the
sun is bright and the rays pene-
trate the water. But so far they
have met with no success, due to
the depth Of the lake which is
over two hundred feet in Places
Minocqua Times.

number, he is then considered as
being in the reindeer industry.
The Michigan herd is confined
in an enclosure, four miles square,
and is under the care of an ex-
perienced Finlander. The original
herd Of sixty was reduced by ac-
cident to fifty-fve, but was in
creased by the arrival of twenty
six calves in June Of last year.
Since that time the herd has gain
ed slightly more than 100 percent.
Albert Stoll, Jr., secretary of the
Michigan Conservation Commits
sion which conducted the expert
ment, has this to say about the
raising of reindeer in the Upper
Peninsula:
IF the experiment of raising
reindeer in Michigan gives this
northern country a hardy and cas-
lily handled food animal, the de
partment of conservation will feel
we'll repaid for its efforts. Our
guess is that Michigan will make
good, and will be the first State
successfully to establish this splen-
did food animal in the United
States.
Michigan's experiments h ave
proved practical and promise much
for lumber companies laboring I'M
der the burden of paying high
taxes on unproductive cut-over
land.
During the last few years the
whole farm implement industry
has been in an abnormal and dis
tressing situation which directly
reflects the situation of the far
mer. High costs of labor, material
and transportation have burdened
it with high manufacturing costs,
while on the other hand low prices
for agricultural products have left
the farmer unable to buy his nor
NAL and needed requirments of
farming machinery.
"We are confident that the hear
ing on the present petition will
clearly show that the Harvester
Company is not in any way respon-
sible for these conditions in the
farm implement industry. Prices
of harvesting machinery are the
result Of vigorous competition, eX-
actly the kind of competition
which the Sherman law was en-
acted to preserve, and fairly com
parable with the prices of other
implements which the govern
ment comedies were fixed by nor
NAL competition"

SIM" at fair time it will be too

For grasses, clovers, alfalfa,
vetch, and soybeans, and field peas

he advises. Cure slowly by spread
ing out to dry in rather dark
room or shady place where there
is circulation of air If piled too
thickly the leaves may turn yell
low or mould Turning will pre-
vent this. With grasses such as
timothy, blue grass, and red top,
choose large heads and long stems,
and do not strip off the leaves.
Collect grasses, clovers, and
vetch when in blossom, alfalfa
when just beginning to bloom,
Cut soybeans and field peas for

In making up the sheaves, tie
grasses in neat bundles three or
more inches in diameter at the
center band and square off the
butts. With clovers, soybeans, the
leaves may fall off in handling,
This may be prevented by COW
ering the material with a damp
cloth for a short time before max
ing up the sheaves. Put UP in
bundles six or more inches In

A Fair, Not a Revel.

Everyone who has the good of
the Wisconsin State fair at heart
will commend the action of the
management in voting to bar
games of chance and immoral
shows, and to protect the public
against dishonest business prac-
tees. They will hope that the
resolution will be carried out
much more earnestly than in some
past years when we were told that
the fair would be clean, and it was
not.
1t should be said in justice to
the management that there has
been a gradual improvement. To
keep the attractions within bounds
presents problem. The man who
pays for a concession wants to
make money and he is not espec-
tally concerned with the character
of the fair. Before him is the
temptation to overstep. AS a re-
suit, Objectionable features have
crept back in one form or another.
Now the state fair board has
drawn a line; but it will have TO
enforce it's resolution most rigor-
ously if it is to maintain it's stan
dard.
A cleaner fair will make for sue
cess. Without doing violence to
the holiday spirit, which seeks
amusement on the grounds, it will
tend to place the emphasis where
it should be-on the more serious
side of providing an exposition
that truly represents the agricul-
ture, industry and civic promotion
of Wisconsin Milwaukee Journal.

DAVIS
TENNIS TEAM
ARRIVES
Will Make Headquarters at
Orange Lawn Tennis Club
This Month.

NEW YORK, July 13.-Members
of the Hawaiian Davis Cup team,
who will play against Australia,
at the Orange Lawn Tennis Club.
July 81. %. and 20. arrived in New
York yesterday. The party con-
sisted Of Richard A. Cooke, cap

has been singles champion of the
territory of Hawaii for the past
seven years and has also held the
doubles championship for six years
partnered by A. L. Castle.
Dietrich, who learned his tennis

Retired practically since the

BERKELEY, July 13.-Although
California was roundly criticized at

than track events in strength, indi.
cations are that next spring the
Bears viii have another representa-
tive team that will force all oppo.

every department.
Barber. a Splinter who will be
eligible for the varsity next spring.
and Boyden, crack half miller, will
be the mainstays, according to pres
ent prospects, of the new California
squad.
The track team lost eight men by
graduation, including the scintil-
lating Brick Muller and Sorrenti,
stellar javelin and general field
event man.
To meet these losses Coach Walt
Christie, with Barber and Boyden
forming a nucleus of new talent,
should again be able to contend for
honors with the best in the country.
Barber has consistently clipped
the ten-second mark in the hundred
yard event and with proper coach
ing and the added strength another
year will give him is looked upon
to be among the leaders on any
track.
Boyden, a Vallejo High School
product. without apparently extend
ing himself, breasted the tape in
the half mile in 1:57 in the Fresh
man meet with Stanford. He Is ex.
pected to prove one of the sensa-
tons of the next track season.

GIANTS
Former Oriffman Leading
National League Batting
Averages.

Jack Bentley, who was even more
famous as a hitter than a pitcher
in the International League, is con-
tinuing to hit with great vigor and
persistency in the National League.
Bentley leads the National League
hitters with an average of .472.
He has knocked out seventeen hits
in thirty-six times up or practical
times at bat.
Bentley's hitting here has raised
considerable conjecture as to
whether the big Quaker could not
be made into National League Babe
Ruth If McGraW found a regular
position for him. In the Interna.
tional League Jack played first
base when he did not pitch.
Bentley is as strong as Ruth and
has as much strength in his
shoulders as the famous Babe, of
the Yankees. Both men weigh
about the same, in the neighbor.
hood of 220 pounds.
Jack was quite a home run hitter
in the International League, and
his extra base hit record was almost
as big as Ruths in the America
League. Here Bentley has hit
mostly singles. with a few doubles
but many of his hits have left his
bat like rifle bullets. 1t was asmash
from Bentley's bat during batting
practice that put Jack Scott out
of commission for six weeks.
Most managers of big league clubs
would be obliged to find q regular
position for Bentley, so as to utilize
his hitting. However, McGraw has
such a we'll rounded team that he
can make better use of Jack in the
pitchers box than by playing him
at first base or in the outfield,
