BEST TO ORDER GARDEN
FLOWER SEEDS EARLY

Order garden flower seeds early
is the advice of Louis Sando, Uni
versity of Minnesota florist, but do
not write for catalogs for the fun of
it because catalogs cost someone real
money.
make up your mind which firm
or firms do the best for their GUS
toners, then write for their cata-
logs" he says. "Do it now and let
your selections be based on your ex-
perience in previous seasons. Every
year it is well for one to experiment
with few new kinds. Make up your
mind to keep more complete notes on
your summer Towering plants. If
this is done, and done well, the notes
may clear up some of the causes of
failure with certain plants. The anna
teur will save his money and may al
so save the sediments reputation in
addition.
when the seeds arrive keep them
cool and do not sow too early unless
you have the conveniences to take
care of the seedlings until planting
out time. Everybody should have
flowers in the home during the win
ter. Fresh flowers are best, but if
you cannot afford to buy very many
you can at least include some ever
lastings' in your order for seeds.
Don't forget the various varieties of
annual statice and the accroclinium,
both white and pink. These varieties
are so far ahead of the old fashioned
straw flower that there is no COM
parison."

FREIGHT CARS LEAVE
TRACK NEAR KLOSSNER

Three grain cars and lumber car
in freight train travelling over the
M. e. st. l.. railroad Friday morning,
jumped the track about a mile and
half south of Klossner near New
Ulm, making it necessary to call two
wrecking crews to the scene of the
accident. The bearings of one of the
cars failed to function at curve in
the track and the car ran straight off
the track. Two grain cars were
thrown over the small bridge at that
point and a third grain car was also
taken off the track

City Lets Contract
For Reservoir Cover

The large water reservoir of the city s
water department will soon have new
concrete top cover, according to con-
tract made at the October meeting OF
the city council, when an award was
made in list of bids received.
The firm being awarded the contract
for the construction of this important
addition to the towns permanent i'm
provements, was given to Hampton,
Kennaird and Hampton, of Jackson,
whose bid of $345O.00 was the lowest of
any received.
The reservoir has been without Gov
ering for the past year, and the new
structure will serve to protect the city
water from the elements, flying parti-
cles of matter and other things that find
resting place on any large body of
water. It will also allow the city to
create a surplus of water for fire use,
as we'll as home consumption, as here
tofore the water used has been pumped
direct into the city mains as it flowed
from the we'll.
Lexington has a fine source of water
supply and the growing densznsts "a 10.
cal consumers-has prompted means of
serving them by storing a larger vol
ume of water for available supply and
use.

Lexington-Sallis In
Tie &c After Hard
Game Opening Date

The Lexington Hi opened the football
season Friday, October 5th against the
strong squad from Sails, the game re-
sulting in &c score, according to the
ruling of the referee, who failed to see
one of the longest passes ever made on
the local field, when CHM shot long
one to Captain Allie Povall, who received
the ball within bounds on narrow mar
gin and was ruled out of bounds. An
other long pass in the same territory
earlier in the game was completed out
of bounds.
Lexington scored within three minutes
after the game was started. The scor-
ing when CHM passed to Povall for over
80 yards, followed by line drive headed
by Watson who went over for touch
down. Lexington was in a drive for a
second touchdown when the half saved
them from accomplishing their purpose.
The second half witnessed another
smashing drive when the Purple Wave
marched down the field, and had 10
yards to go for tally on first down
A short pass intercepted by Robertson,
left tackle for Sails, resulted in an 80
yard run through an open field for a
touchdown, and upset Lexington's plans
for a bit, Sails making series of
downs for their first time of the fray.
This threat by the visitors was soon
ended and Lexington again renewed
their attack, going down the field on
every try. Within striking distance of
the goal, the locals took the air, CHM
shooting one of the prettiest ones to
Captain Povall, who received the ball
for a touchdown that did not count, the
referee ruling out of bounds. Accord
ing to spectators close at hand to the
play, the ball was in at least 18 inches,
even the tackling opponent between the
player and the line. The score did not
count and the ball was brought back
to the 20-yard line and given to Sails.
Still undaunted by their recent ruling,
Lexington held for downs and started
drive on the goal again, the final
whistle saving the day for a tie for
Sails, with the locals within 16 feet
of the goal line again.
Lexington showed superior coaching
and teamwork through the game. Only

minor defects existed in certain plays
and these will be ironed out in the next
weeks practice. Lexington's line showed
smashing powers, ripping openings and
blocking plays repeatedly. Captain al
Povall, Henley and Holloman led thesat-
tacks in every fray. The backfield car
ries several threats in the lineup, with
Watson's line plunging a feature for
gains. Bubber Ginn's passing is un-
canny, his long shots carrying as true
to the mark, as if catapulted from a
deadly machine gun.
Sails brought over scrappy team,
but were handicapped throughout the
game with injuries that called for SUBJ
stitutions repeatedly. Coach j. F. Simp-
son, of Sails, named his lineup as fol-
lows: Simpson, Wildwood, Waddell,
Captain Hasler, Dodd, Robertson, Aldy,
Young, Cox, Allen and Culpepper.
Officials were referee, Phillip; UNI
pire, O'Steen; linesmen, Rhyme, Causey,
