InPinU Upset

Harry Brown, of st. Peters
Parish, is a hero in his own rights
today, for last night he popped out
a 405 set with games Of 131, 154
and 100, to lead Camden Tavern
to a shutout triumph over the
leading Sunrise Bakery and also
out of the cellar of the Temple
Major League.
Harry couldn't miss last night.
He had six strikes and seven
spares in the big set. His 154 fea-
tured $40 team game and aided
by John Perry's 384 and Bill Lewis
352, Camden had an 1912 set.
Both the $40 game and 1912 set
are second best for the league.
While Brown is sitting on top Of
the world, Perez Wolfe is down in
the dumps as his 403 set, with
games of 118, 142 and 143, went
for naught, as Lido Civic Club
swept the Dixie Pigs three games
and into the cellar.

Can I raise tomatoes and peppers
on peat?
1t is usually not desirable to at.
tempt to produce peppers, tomatoes
or other long-season or warm-sea-
son crops on peat In this region
Peat is a late soil and while the
plants grow well on 1t, the fruits
are apt to be late in maturing
These crops usually do best on the
upland soils. Peat Is best suited to
the production of potatoes, carrots

What do you recommend to pre-

Self-sucking by cows Is wholly q
habit that may spread from one
animal to the other. Once started
1t is very difficult to break. Use OF
mechanical devices Is the only pre-
vention. There is no cure, for as
soon as the device Is removed the

Before another issue of the Herald reaches our
readers another Independence Day will have passed
into the realm of history. Sank Centre is not cele-
bratng this year, but several of the neighboring
communities will have old-time, sizzling celebrations.
1t is meet and right that this should be so, as
the natal day of the greatest country earth is
cause for rousng celebration. AS the most favored
people in the world today, have right to cele-
brate with all our might, but at the same time we
should pause in retrospect.
1t is well then that in the midst of this rejoicing
we stand uncovered under the protecting folds Of
dom we enjoy and offer thanks for the opportunities
which still ours
Our country is beset with the dangers of isms,
which only can gain foothold when forget
duty, and when people no longer inter-
ested in perpetuating heritage of free govern
ment Hence, let us celebrate Independence Day in
a rousing way, and yet maintain in hearts
thanks for the opportunities enjoy under great
free government-the home of free men.

records surveyed last week by two men from
the U. s. General Land office in Washington. The
piece of land the shore of Lake Ocheda and fol

resulted from claim filed the land by Frank
