The Ohio and Michi-
gan War
sY HARRY L. HALE

How the armies of Ohio and Mich
igan battled over strip of land q
few counties long and eight miles
wide, with bloodshed averted only by
timely government Intervention, will
be real news to most Ohioans, even
If the story is Ill years late in get
ting to them.
It was genuine, undeclared war
with all the trimmings and the gov
ernors of both states in personal
charge of their troops on the battle
field. Just as in most wars, the cause
was dispute over territory.
Raids by Michigan soldiers into
the eight-mile no-man's-land in which
prisoners of war were taken, and re-
taliating movements by Ohio soldiers
in which the prisoners were recover
ed, high-lighted the hostilities.
Though Ohio was to blame for the
conflict, Michigan was the aggressor
and actually sent her troops into To
ledo where some property was des-
troyed, a prisoner of war captured,
and withdrawal accomplished without
casualties.
Governor Robert Lucas hurried
from Columbus to head the Ohio ar
my, and Governor Mason, Of Michi-
gan, took personal command of the
troops from his state.
The war was about the strip of
land between Michigan and Ohio that
extended from the southern tip of
Lake Michigan to an imaginary line
in Lake Erie. Each state had fixed
its own boundries to it and each
state maintained that it's boundary
was the right one.
Michigan held out that the Ordin-
ance of 1887, which provided for div
ision of the Northwest Territory in
to not less than three and not more
than five states, and stipulated that
if divided into five states the three
southern states should be divided
from the two northern states by a
line running east from the southern
point of Lake Michigan to the terri
torial line in Lake Erie, was correct
and final.
Ohio contended that the line was
an impossible one which would leave
/ most of the Western Reserve II
Michigan instead of Ohio.
Consequently the Ohio constitution
fixed its own boundry line which
made the disputed strip of land part
of Wood, Henry and Williams coun.

TRACY RICHARDSON was a
: quiet-speaking boy before he left
Missouri to become a machine gum
ner in the Latin American reyolu-
tions 30 years ago.
Young Richardson fought in six
armies, including two in the World
war, was wounded 16 times. But
his single-handed capture of Mana
qua, capital: of Nicaragua, was his
most spectacular feat.
After the defeat of the loyalists at
Granada during the Nicaraguan rev.
olution,, Richardson rode far ahead
of his column to get away from the
dust. Unknowingly, he reached the
outskirts of Managua and was
seized by federal soldiers who sur
prised him.
No machine gun could get him out
of this-nothing but just plain bluff
was even worth considering. 81 am
a messenger from the commander
of the revolution to your command
ing general" he said quickly. "Take
me to hin"
When he arrived, he said, Eve
outnumber you ten to one and have
artillery and machine guns. Gen.
eral Mana has no desire to kill his
brother Nicaraguans without need.
Surrender to me and he spares your
| lives" FEa
The bluff workedl All men who
were under arms were marched tc
the Jail, under Richardson's orders,
and deposited their guns in the cells.
They marched away unarmed and
the keys were turned over to the

SHORTS AND MIDDLINGs

Alfalfa pastures have been used
for the Trumbull County Experiment
Farm dairy herd for several years
without any cases of bloating. The
cows had access to bluegrass pasture
while they were on alfalfa but the
bluegrass probably did not make
bloating more or less probable.
Hungry cows will eat enough of
several roughages to cause bloating.
The Trumbull herd always had
plenty of feed.
Field trials extending over 80
years indicate Ohio sandy soils can
be kept at high productivity level
even under intensive vegetable grow
ing. Near Marietta, sandy soil has
produced higher yields of vegetables
in the last four years than in the
first four years of the 32-year
period. Manure fortified with some
commercial fertilizer has been a
little superior to commercial fertil-
izer alone in maintaining soil fertiI-
ity.
Late blight on u. S. tomatoes in
1946 caused a loss estimated at
about S45.0oo,ooo, which would be
almost half the total amount paid
out for insecticides and fungicides to
protect all farm and orchard crops.
Growers usually do not spray or
dust tomatoes although it has been
proved that adequate applications of
common fungicides will control late
blight on the crop. Commercial
tomato growers may have to adopt
such protective methods.
The rotenone supply to be avail
able in the IL months beginning
October |, 1916, will be about the
same as the 1912 supply. Some
states have planned extensive pro-
grams this winter for the control of
cattle grubs with retenone, but the
supply may have to be allocated SO
those states will share with others
where individual farmers treat single
herds.

 The three visitors were brought to Kodiak from Anchor age in the Fish & Wildlife plane piloted by Clarence Rhode, ar- irving here Monday noon. They were flown around Kodiak is- land, viewing 2 reindeer herds, 5 or 6 bears and lots of fish,
 G. W. Bubendorf, chamber president presided at the dinner and Mayor Lee Bettinger intro duced the guests
 MT. Warne, on his first visit, said he was deeply impressed by his trip around the island, and by the king crab served at the dinner, which he said was the first crab he had ever SC 'n that had drumsticks
 Alaska has always been great in his judgment, he said, and he felt the time was at hand in which a pioneer territory is be- coming great state.
 Problems his department IS in- terested ID and which they ex- pect to help ln are the addition of new businesses and industries, the establishment of possessory native rights, and the preserva- tion of forestry and basic fish ing resources.
 His trip, he stated, was an ef- fort to learn the problems Of Alaska from Pt. Barrow to Ket- chikan and to coordinate his de- partment ia the work of handling them
 MT Flakne said he had learn ed from residence in the States that .Alaskans did not boost their country enough. He said he visited Kodiak in 1886 and that he felt then and now that 1t has a great opportunity for good community Irving, for develop. ment of local crops and growth from the fishing and tourist in dustries
 MT, Foster said his department was interested in 2 vital issues, a health program and aboriginal rights, and that his department would be part of the Interior Department team in helping de- velop Alaska
