Saves Calves With
Simple Remedy
Math Jennissen Lost Two Calves
Saved Eight With Kero-
sene and Milk

Math Jennissen, farmer living
south Of Sank Centre, last Tuesday
had costly experience when ten
of his purebred Holstein calves be-
came seriously sick from eating hay
which was not properly cured last
fall. Two Of the calves died before
Mr.. Jennissen hit upon an idea
which may be beneficial to other
farmers, who may have the same
experience at some future date.
Mr.. Jennissen stated to the Her
aid Wednesday morning that he
had cut some Sudan hay last fall,
which he made quite early, before
a few Canadian thistles, which
were among the crop, had ripened.
He had difficulty in curing the
hay, and after two weeks he put
one load in the barn and stacked
the balance in the field. Later he
turned the cows into the field, and
soon after noticed that six Of them
were quite sick. He called veter-
marian and all were saved by in
lection of serum. The hay was left
IA IuC 0dAAA Oil WlhbCI anu vi
Tuesday he decided to clean it out,
and commenced feeding it to the
ten calves.
About milking time he noticed
that one Of the calves had become
sick. He attempted to get a veterin-
arian from Sank Centre without
avail. He finally drove to Brooten
where his search also proved fruit
less. While returning to his home
he decided to care for the animals
himself, and hit upon the idea of
giving them kerosene and milk.
One of the animals was dead and
the others were in bad shape when
he arrived home. One more died
later. He gave the calves the con-
coction of kerosene and milk and
saved the balance. Some Of the
calves were gone 50 far that they
were unable to stand.
Mr.. Jennissen came into the Her
aid office and gave us this infor-
nation with the intention Of help
ing others, who may experience
the same difficulty, but not with
the purpose in view of belittlng the
value Of Sudan hay. He stated that
the simple remedy he used works
100 percent.

Unearfhed Craze
Stone on North Main
Older Residents State Lot Was
Cemetery Site Many Years
Ago-Bodies Removed

Old residents of this COM
munity may be reminded of
days gone by with the passing
of this little incident. A short
time ago the children Of MIR.
and Mrs. William Pollock un-
earthed a small grave stone ON
the vacant lot next to their
home on North Main Street.
The object is a small marker
measuring perhaps only a foot
square. On one of the narrow
er surfaces Is inscribed:
Children of G. and f. e. Har-
mon" Then on one of the
broader faces is written: "Har-
low III. April 8, 1876, years,
8 months, and rs days" On the
other side it was found to
read: Infant twin boys"
There was no date ON this side
nor age; they were perhaps
very young babies. Though
there was some difficulty to
make out whethe. or not the
First inscription was f. E, or
ct. E." the report to follow
from the files of the April
18th issue of the Sank Centre
Herald of that year substan-
tiates that the character is an
f. The item follows: "Died
on Saturday, April 9Th, Har-
low Herbert, youngest son of
Chandler and Franc Harmon,
passed away In the fifth year
of his age"
1t was gathered I'm several
talks with older persons of the
city, that the lot was once the
site of a cemetery, but that all
bodies were thought to have
been removed, possibly to what
Is now Oakland Cemetery.
Whether the marker was left
or forgotten, or whether the
grave of the boys was never
removed we have been unable
to determine.

gave an insight into the play side
of Scouting preceded the Court.
Mrs. E. r. Hedin, who conducted
the meeting called upon Mrs. II. T.
Austin who spoke briefly on the
summer camp planned for Girl
Scouting this summer. Mr.. Easton.

director of this work. A puppet
show was a feature of the evening
and brought many laughs with the
queer antics Of the small charact-

with the aid of Mrs. Fred Moss

handled.

ROGERS WILL
MAKES WIDOW
HIS SOLE HEIR

LOS ANGELES, Aug. 20. U.P)-
A "presentiment will by which the
late VIII Rogers, cowboy philoso-
pher. made his widow sole heir to
his estimated $5,000,000 estate was
on file here today.
The will was dated August 3.
just u days before Wiley Posts
little red bus plunged into an
icy Alaskan stream, bearing the hu-
morist and the round -the-world
flyer to their deaths.
Whether or not Rogers had
presentiment of death before he
took off on the Alaskan iaunt will
probably never be known His gay
bearing before the trip would seem
to deny it.
But actors, not tfE least super
stitiouS people in the world, are
prone to believe in signs and por-
tents, and many here today thought
that the immortal viii must have
heard a faint warning"
The will, written on a single
sheet of paper, was immediately
cached in the probate clerks safe,
and a copy was placed in the files
Ewing Halsell of Vanita, Okla,

United Press Staff Correspondent
NEW YORK, Aug. 20. - Sir NAL
colin Campbell, the little middle
aged. icy-nerved Briton who is roll
ing west for another attempt TO lift
his worlds land speed record to 300
miles an hour, fears the unknown
salt beds of Utah but for one rea-
son. He is afraid conditions won't
be as perfect as they have been
described and that he'll have to
wait so long for a record run in
Bluebird that he'll miss the Joe
Louis Make Baer fight late in
September.
Sir Malcolm-the only man who
has driven an automobile at speed
in excess of 200 m. D. h. and lived
sat in his hotel before leaving for
Utah Yesterday, and talked fights
for upwards of two hours. For the
speed king is a fight filbert of the
first flight. His favorite seat, save
the one behind Bluebirds wheel, is
one hard by the ringside of fight.
And he doesn't care what kind OF
fight, just so they are couple
rof willing citizens in there throwing
fists.
During the two months your cor
respondent went with Campbell in
1888 and this year, he never knew
him to miss bout within a radius
Of hundred miles. 1t didn't mat
ter if the headline bout was nothing
more than a pair of raw, un-
schooled, colored boys fighting in
tennis shoes, Sir Malcolm would be
the first to arrive and the last to
leave
Sir Malcolm was particularly in
terested in hearing of King Levin
sky and his knockout by Louis.
Campbell met LeyinSky at a fight
in Daytona last winter and fell un-
der the spell of the Kings charm.
Sir Malcolm was sitting in box
with Lady Campbell and several
municipal dignitaries when Levin
sky breezed in to watch the main
go between Bob Olin and Tony
Shucco
Met 'Kingfish
He made straight for Sir NAL
colm's box and, finding an empty
seat there, planked himself down.
propped his feet up on the railing,
and said
"Howya, Mr., Campbell. I'm King
fish Levinsky. got personality.
Whatta fighter! 1 may stay here
a coupla days and watch you run
that bus of yours. And say, if see
you down on the beach I'll give you
an autographed pitcher of myself"
Campbell thanked him for drop
ping in, said he would appreciate
an autographed picture, and the
two watched the fight together.
What was the matter with my
friend the King?" he asked yester-
day. II read that he was so scared
he couldn't lift up his hands. He
told me he wasn't scared of any
thing. Was he really frightened?"
We said yes, the King was scared
to death and stayed around only
long enough to get bopped on the
! jaw a couple of times.
How about Louis and Baer?n he
asked. rs the colored fellow as
good as they say he is? And what
was the matter with Baer against
Braddock? 1 understood that Brad
dock can't fight a Bit
I went into great detail about
Louis and Baer and Braddock
Il think Louis will win, Sir NAL
colin said when colored fellows
are good they're good. I remem-
ber watching Jack johnson when he
was at his best, and he was the
greatest fighter I ever saw. I do
hope everything goes smoothly in
Utah and I am back to see Louis
whip Baer. Even if 1 should make
3OO I'd be frightfully disappointed
with this -ep if missed that
fight"
