The local K. of P. lodge gave a banquet Monday evening at their hall in the Koster block to the members, their families, visiting members and several other invited guests. The number banqueted was estimated at 160. James Plotner, the assessor of Beaver township, met with * serious

accident near his home Wednesday evening about 5:00 o ; clo<?k when he fell from a load of shelled corn and broke both bones of his right arm above the wrist. A threshing, engine that was used to 'run a Corn shredder, blew up on the Con Dwyer farm ten miles east of Francesville yesterday afternoon at 3 o’clock, and in five minutes , a i ter ward the Dwyer home was turn--led into a hospital with medical aid hurrying to the ..scene. As a result I "Johjiny" Hawkins apd Moses Rey- ( molds were badly injured and seyl eral others were slightly hurt from flying fragments. Hawkins was the most seriously injured of the two I men. His right leg is broken in ; two places between the knee and : thigh; his knee cap was torn loose ! and an ugly and dangerous wound in the groin about seven incJj.es long , and very deep was caused from a big (splinter from the feed board which i was driven into his body from the | impact of the explosion. His face | was cooked almost beyond recognition from the escaping steam and hot cinders. His condition is considered most serious and his recovery is doubtful.. When the engine cut loose he was standing on a load of fodder. Reynolds, who was standing back and to one side of the engine received a broken leg between the knee and ankle. He will probably get along alright if complications do, not set in. Th,e engine was owned by G. W. Gilger of Jefferson tj). He cannot give a reason for the explosion unless it was caused from a defective boiler or crown sheet, as the water was not low when It let loose.

Mrs. Eflie 1). Kerns, daughter of S. and Hattie pexter was born in the Province of Friesland, Holland, April, 1861, and died at her home in this city Jan. 1, 1912, aged 51 years.

The 1 heroic work of the local fire department saved five buildings in the business part of Goodland Wednesday morping when they held the 1 flames inside the Henry Butler hotel building, being occupied by Shearer Brothers. This is old the Beala Kent building and is a three 1 story structure and was just recent-' Iy overhauled and repaired and fit- 1 ■ ted up for a first class hotel and 1 restaurant. Mr. Butler purchased the ’building at an administrator’s sale on Nov. 26, 1910, and last summer spent something like $2,500 Repairing the large building for a hotel. Mr. Butler, we learn, carried no insurance and from a rough estimate it looks like a $2,000 damage to the building. Shearer Bros. I fared a little better, having something like a SI,OOO insurance. .Atpresent Mr. Shearer does not know what he will do’ as there is no room suitable to move. into. The Shearer Bros, started in business here last August and semed to have a perous business and it certainly was 1 a piece of tough luck tti get burned! out just as they were getting started ( good. Several theories have been 1 advanced as to the origin of fire but no one is sure. Some have | said that defective wiring was the! cause, and upon investigating, it was found that no wire was near where the fire started.

NOTES from MEADOWBROOK FARM

By William Pitt

Inbreeding too much will cause pigtons to "go light;” Persistency is one of the valuable Dualities of a good dairy cow.- • Do not allow the pullets to roost in the coops where they were raised.. J he horse that slobbers when eating. should have his teeth examined. The experienced; poultryman will • breed only from his best winter layers. Onions, unlike potatoes and other root crops, will not keep in a moist cellar. ' Tile drainage by making the soil firm, enables earlier cultivation in the spring. Low ground drained can be.cultivated earlier than high ground - not drained. Prune the currants and .gooseberries as soon as the leaves fall, or early next spring. At this season ©f the year with the coming of the fall rains, a dry shelter should be provided for the sheep. 1 * i “Almost every wrong act of the horse is caused by fear, excitement or mismanagement,” said a great horseman.

Begin a systematic culling of the flock this month, and get rid of all unpromising birds before cold weather sets in. - ‘ I A dairy barn can be kept practically free from unpleasant odors, but we never saw more than half a dozen such barns. It is just as important that every horse should have his own collar all the time as that a man should wear his own shoes. Save the small potatoes and imperfect heads of cabbage and other waste j vegetables. They will all be relished ; by the hens in the winter. ) Work horses, that have been pushed in the fields <all summer should 1 now have the advantage of every hour i possible in the fall .pastures. j Where a number of horses are kept | in the same barn the sides of the stall i should be low enough to allow them to see each other as all horses love company. Let the same person milk the same cows every day when possible, because a strange milkei always makes the animal nervous and affects the milk flow. The first test to be given a new workman on the farm is to send him out with a team. If he handles them kindly and skillfully he is pretty sure to be a good all-round man. If you find a workman kicking or beating a horse back him up into a corner and give him a sound lecture. Then watch him carefully and if he repeats the act send him adrift. .When a man sends his horse pellmell down hill with a loose rein he not only jars the shoulders, springs the knees, weakens the nerves, but runs the risk of breaking his horses’s knees. Put new Band on the floor of the hen house immediately, otherwise it will not dry out thoroughly before cold weather comes but will remain damp and make the house uncomfortable throughout the winter. There is no economy in feeding musty grain of any kind to the chickens, even if it can be had for a quarter of the price of good grain. The fowls will eat it, if other food -is withheld, but it is not good for them. r • . • . —r:' :V In many of the big sheep states the farmers find it profitable to engage the professional shearers with a machine. They go about from farm to farm shearing the flocks singly or have several flocks brought to g central poiht Sheep require different feeding and handling from any other animal on the farm. Even though you are an experienced sheep raiser, don’t get too ambitious and try to manage a larger flock than you can keep up to the standard of excellence. The’ average depreciation of farm machinery is reckoned at 10-per cent, pe • year. A machine shed will cut this cost at least one-third, or extend the life of the average machine to fifteen years, where It is now thrown onto the scrap pile in ten years.
