The American Legion assumed general responsibility for tbe handling
of the day's activities. Fonr of their
number, John O'Grady, Ralph Stevens, Bill Hawkins and Alpbeus Perry
were deputized as special police and aU
"rough stuff" sucb as fist fights*
thieving, etc., which often mars a
celebration ot this kind, was conspicuously absent on tbis occasion.
The Legion also had charge of all
tbe concessions, themselves operating
several  stands.     Floyd . Kirkpatrick

many a threatened tree may be kept
alive and many a bushel of vegetables
kept from rotting. Following are tbe
notes aa prepared by Dr. Coons:
"The raspberry patch ahould be
* caned* to remove all dead and badly
diseased stalks. Tbis ia more or less
a sanitary measure and it gives tbe
aound canes a chance.     ■'
**In tbe fall pruning of apple orchards tbe farmer bas a cbance to rid
tbe trees of cankered limbs. - In deciding; wbat cuta are to be made, tbe
vigor and freedom from disease of a
limb sbonld be borne in mind. .
"Any pruning cut exposes the heart
wood of the tree and opens tbe way
for heart rot fungi. As soon aa the
cut surfaces are dry they sbould be
painted with a wbite lead paste . (not
zinc white). Common bain paint or
ready mixed house paint has small
protecting valne for pruned surfaces.
The pruning cut should be made flash
witb the main branch. Tbe healing
of wounds comes about from a 'callus'
growth from tbe cambium. : If stubs
are left the projecting parts prevent
the healing. -, |
' "Hold-over cankers of fire blight
can oe located by tbe blighted twigs
on which the leaves have. withered
and dried. The canker is at tbe base
of tbe twig. These should be located
and removed. Through winter eradication coupled with vigilance in the
early part of the growing season wili
control fire blight. .. ■.
"Ventilation is necessary in tbe
storage cellar if disastrous rotting of
tbe produce is to be avoided. Vegetable pits sbould be provided witb a
straw floor and a straw or crate chimney. Black heart of potatoes and
black specking of cabbage are due to
lack of oxygen in tbe storage room.
"A cleanup of all trash from tbe
preceding    crop    should   take   place
leaders by Ciare and tbe fourth game
lost by Gladwin tbis season.
-(Terwilliger struck out thirteen men
and never was in real danger. Sisco,
however, was knocaed out of'the box
during tbe 6th inning. . In this inning
the local boys pounded out four two
base bits, while Clare errors were
etlU sufficiently numerous they were
inexpensive.

Sanitation is tbe gardener's greatest
protection.
"In the field sanitation is obtained
by crop rotation. Those who followed corn with corn, beets with beets,
or beans with beans have this year
found that disease has been one important factor in their farming.
Aside from its relations to soil fertility, crop rotation is necessary to
avoid disease intensification.
"Seed corn is bead chosen in tbe
field rather than from the bin, but
must come from stalks which mature
naturally and not prematurely as a
result of root disease."

at the home of his daughter, Mrs.
Jobn Livingston, in Sheridan township, Angust 10, 3921, at the age of
78 years, 2 months, and 13 days.
On June 28th 1370, be was united in
marriage to Margaret B. DstrieK, of
MesBboppen, Pa., wbo preceded him
in death two years ago.    ■'''""; " '
To this union were born four cbil
dren, Mrs. Rosalie Eberbart, of Clare
Frank D.. of Beaverton, Homer A.
and Mrs. Hattie Livingston, both of
Clare. Besides his cbiidren he also
leaves one brother, H. N. Loomis, of
Clare.
In 1882 be moved with bis family
from Pennsylvania to Herrick, Michigan, where be built a home in tbe
then unbroken forest and spent many
years in clearing up his farm, enduring all tbe privations of tbe early
pioneers, uncomplainingly.

The new law requiring a certificate
of title to be carried by all automobile
owners, and preventing the sale of a
second ear without sueb evidence ot
ownership, is designed to make it
difficult to dispose of stolen oars.
H. D. Brown, attorney for tbe Detroit Automobile club, recently gave
a hypothetical instance of bow the
law will operate.
Jones owns a car wbicb be wishes
to sell to Brown. He holds both a
registration card and a certificate of
title.   ... . ,-v
After the sale has been made, Jones
indorses bis certificate of registration
to Brown, writing on tbe back of tbe
card Brown's name, address and date
of sale. This be sends to Lansing,
bureau of motor registration, department of state, wbere it is placed on
file.    ,
The certificate of title, wbicb is in
tbe same form as a land title or otber
deed or title to' property, also is
assigned to Brown. On tbe back of
this title Jones writes data stating
whether or not the car ie clear of
debt or whether , there still is an
amount due, how much and to whom.
Jones has tben completed . bis share
of the transaction.
■ If Jones does not oo tbis within. 10
days after the date of transfer, he is
subject to a fine of not less than $5
and not more than 850.
Brown tben must file application
for transfer or verification of title
wUhin five days after the sale, or "he
shall be considered to be driving a
motor vehicle without registration
and upon conviction thereof shall be
fined not less than S5 and not more
than $50.      '       ,
Should Jones, in Belling the hypothetical car to Brown, not be the
owner, and should falsify the certificate of title, be would be considered,
under Section 9 of the act, "guilty of
a felony" and. upon conviction,
| would he subject to fine of  not  more

the discretion of the court.
The purchaser of the car, for wbicb
a certificate of license is asked, does
not change his status by his manner
of purchase, the attorney said. If be
Ouys for cash he merely says so on
tbe application for title. If for payments, tbe amounts paid and due are
clearly set out on tbe title, as is tbe
D&me of the person . to whom the
amount to be paid is due.
The purchaser, it was pointed out,
tben sbould verify these statements
in consultation with the person to
whom the money is due. If tbe alie
gation made and sworn to by the
person assigning the car is found to
be true, tbe sale is made without
difficulty.
The majority of questions concerning tbe new law bave to do with the
status of the certificate of title. At
torney Brown explained this by comparing it to a deed or title to any
property, "an evidence of ownership".
Owners of cars witb 1921 licences
will be mailed application blanks for
certificates of title from ..Lansing.
After it is filled ont this application
is to be retnrned to to the bureau of
motor registration with a certified
Check or money order for Si.
AS long as tbe  car, for   whicb   this
title was given, remains in the hands
I of  the   individual   owner,   it  is   not
j necessary to change   the  certificate.
" New cerutucateo   are  uscessary  cnly
when tbe car is  sold   or  a new  one
purchased.
It is expected tbat many automobile owners will bave their certificates of title by October 1, 1921.
Automobile club officials warn all
buyers to demand these certificates
after tbat date. If they do not, it
was pointed out, buyers may get
stolen cars instead of those witb
clear titles.
After July 1, 1922fc no cards of
registration will be issued by tbe
secretary of state unless application
also is made for a certificate of title,

it over on its side   over   the  edge   of
tbe bridge and dropping  about eight
feet to tbe water below, np side down.
: Several   things    happened    during

when he himself was bead downward.

struck  her   and   ber   little   brother is
suffering some from the shock.
The car, which was a new one, was
badly damaged.

The   new  speed   law   is one of several  legislative  measures adopted at
the instance of the  Detroit  Automobile Club.    Tbe speeds  allowed bere- -
tofore   were   obsolete   because    tbey
were passed to govern   conditions  of '
15  years  ago.      On   an   open   road a
motorist   mav   drive without,  danger
to himself or others   at   35 miles   per
bonr.    Fifteen and 20   miles is   not  a
dangerous   speed   in    cities,     as    all "
motorists   are   allowed    to   travel  at
this rate in Detroit. '     J " :y-
-   Watch out for Speed. :
Motorists   are     warned,     however,
to   be   sure   that  tbey are not .within
limits   of   villages   wben  traveling at
tbe new rate of speed.  Many villager*
extend   tbeir   limits   into    tbe    open
country    and   arrest     motorists    for
driving faBter tban tbe   rate   allowed
in viliages.
Otber new regulations tbat become
effective this week include those
governing driver's license for chauffeurs, the Condon Law, providing,
for certificates of title, and tbe negligent homicide law.
Tbe   law pertaining   to   chauffeur*
provides that every registered chauffeur   most take   an   examination   by
the chief of police or   sheriff.   Similar
to tbat provided nnder the operator'*
license    law.       Heretofore    it   waa
necessary only to fi'l out an   application blank and get a license. ,   Chauffeurs will still pay the $2 annual  fee,
but will also bave to submit   once   to*
an examination   by   the   traffic   division   of   tbe police department.    Tbe
amendment  does  not   affect person*
who are not paid   drivers of vehicles.
A New Legal Weapon.
The  negligent    homicide   law  wa*
passed to give the   authorities a weapon  with  which   to combat  reckles*
drivers wbo kill persons in the street*.

charge   many guilty persons were acquitted.    The new law provides:
"Every person who,   by the   operation of any vehicle at any immodersv ®
rate of speed or in   a  careless,   rec:~ -
lees  or   negligent    manner,   but   ci-b.
