liberal enough to make
vent one of world-wi rest.
Glenn H. Curtiss, holder of the
worlds aviation record for
speed, Charles K. Hamilton,
who has the record for slow flying and gliding, Charles P. Willard, for ace starting and
landing aud J. C. Mars, who
has recently developed champi-
lip form, are all under   i
tract to come here.    New   Curie!   machines  ar.- to be
of the type with which the
high I from Albany to New
was made.    In addition am;'
aviators are to   be   encour.:
by the offer of   handsome   trophies.
What is to give the meet a
certain amount of distinction is
the novelty of some of the competitions. Barney Oldfield
with his 200 horse-power Ben-*.
motorcar, has been engaged to
compete with aeroplanes a
has  been arranged   which
will pit Minor Heir, the
■ in the
ist Curtiss, the fastest aviator and Oldfield, the
fastest auto driver. The horse
will encircle the half mile track
Oldfield the mile track and the
aeroplane will lly above its
compeditors,; all three going at
once.
Oldfield and Kischler, with
his 100 horse-power Darracq machine, are to go against world's
track records, and there will
also be notable motorcycle races. These events will obviate
any delays of the program possible by weather conditions
interfering with the aviators.
Another unique feature will be
ttempt of Frank Owens,
catcher on the Minneapolis
base ball team, to catch a ball
dropped by Curtis-from a height
the air. A similar feat to this was successfully performed, it will be remembered, by Charlie Street, of the
Washington Club, who caught a
baseball dropped from the top
of ithe Washington monument,
which is 542 feet high.

SCHOOL PICNIC
AT FISH LAKE
The picnic arranged by the
Sisters O.S.B. at Fish lake last
Thursday for the children of the
village schools was a grand
affair for the little ones, there
being about 220 in attendance.
It took about ten teams to carry
them to the lake and back. It
was a jolly crowd when passing
thru the village singing and
waving flags. At the lake the
entertainments consisted of
games, singing and excursions
around the lake on the launch
"Queen Minnie." A large crowd
of adults were also in attendance.

Fight   Quack   Grass  Now
Get to work now on the
small patches of quack ,_frass.
Set them apart for special attention durinor the rest of '.he
summer. Keep the underground stems from being
dragged to other parts of the
field. If patches are too larye
to smother with tar paper dig
up the grass, shake out the
roots and underyround stems
carefully, and haul them from
and burn. A five or six-tined
fork will be found a valuable tool
for this work. If dead the
roots and stems may be plowed under to increase fertility.
Look the patches over every
week to catch any plants that
may have been left or that
may have developed. These
patches mav be planted to any
cultivated crops. For management of large patches or
fields of quack grass see _\Iin-

You will always find him at the
Pierz Hotel.
Harrowing corn is not recommended, but if farmers
persist in this practice it
should be done when the corn
is dry. It is then less tender
and not so liable to be broken
down. Harrowing should not
be done when the ground is
wet and weather cold. Care
must be exercised not to thin
out the stand when harrowing.
If the ground is lumpy, full of
old corn stalks or rubbish harrowing- is even more undesirable than on good land.

informed that his brother Jos.
Zuleger of that place is seriously ill with pneumonia.
