At about the same time another

fifteen more from Clare Co., though
tbe exact number has not been ascertained. We understand more tban

Married At Iron River.
Word comes to us of the marriage
on May 25th of Frank H. Fisher, a
Clare Co. boy, to Miss Delia Stan-
away of Stambaugh. Both have been
teachers at Palatks, U. P. the bride
for four years and the groom for two.
Tbey are just now at Fowler where
Mr. Fisher has charge of a Boys-
Working Reserve, 46 lads mostly
from Iron River. He bas accented a
return call to Polatka at a generous
Increase in salary, refusing an offer
ef prineipalship at Iron Mountain.

MANY COUNTIES
Are Arranging For  Exhibits At
State Fair.
Enthusiasm aroused throughout tbe
State oyer the 1918 Exposition of tbe
Michigan State Fair, by tbe co-operation of the Federal Government, haa
resulted in twenty counties sending
in official entry blanks for exhibits of
tbeir products. Never before in tbe
history of Fairs in Michigan, has so
much collective community interest
been shown as bss been evinced up
to tbe present time in tbe coming exhibition.
' Following a letter sent to the
Oonnty Agents of tbe State by G. W.
Dickinson, Secretary—Manager of
tbe Fair Association, ln whicb he explained tbat tbe fundamental principle of the coming Fair is snpport of
tbs Government tn the war work and
advising tbem of tbe interest the government is showing by making a gigantic exhibit, occupying over 8,000
square feet of space, tbese emissaries
of scientific, intensive farming immediately allied themselves with the patriotic movement.
Special arrangement for the allotment of space in tbe Agricultural
Building, wbere these community exhibits will be displayed, is being
made. The expense of these exhibits
to tbe counties wiil be greatly decreased tbis year, through tbe rein-
is totem eat of tbe return free privilege
on exbibita.
I received the bundle of papers of
tbe last of March yesterday and have
read them all through.
Work bas been very alack bere-
Tbe weather has been rainy and
there- has been little fighting. Expect
that iu tbe near future they will resume.
Had forty come into my ward yesterday, machine gun, shrapnel
high explosive shell cases. Tbey were
ail looked after tn duo course and we
shipped them to England this morning.
It is nice here on tbe sea front
when the weather is fine, but when
the weather is bad it's pretty chilly.
There is always a chilly breeze off
the Atlantic wben the wind is westerly-
Was over to onr canteen yesterday
and bought a cciple of boxeB ol
cigars. Ordinary 10c cigar s-coat
about f>:,4 cento there. 1 am fortunate
inaomuch as 1 can buy from either
I einteen--Brltish or U. S. A we who
! are attached to the B. E F. can buy
in tiieir canteens. In fact, they are
generous enough to ailow any American officers to buy cigars orcigarettes.
But they draw the line at selling
clothes, shoe, etc. to any except
those attached to their own service.
From what I can gather, I am
afraid that the Dr. I roomed with in
Southhampton was taken prisoner
by the Germans together with his
field ambulance. He was with a division wbich was in the line at the
time of tbe attack and didn't retreat.
Received another paekage containing sbaving cream yesterday. I now
uave enough to last for some time. 1
think. Haven't received a letter
from you in about a montb. What's
the matter? Getting lazy or are the
mails miscarrying? I suppose the
trout are keeping you busy just now.
Have read the papers backward
and forward. Things are running
along quietly here.
Saw an interesting case the other
day. A man came in wounded. The
fact that he was a cigarette smoker
saved his life. Also the fact that be
carried bis cigarette case in bis left
breast pocket. A piece of shrapnel
went through tbe onter lid, and the
inner side ef tbe case just barely stopped the force enough so that the
piece of metal just penetrated tbe
skin over the precordiom. It was
squarely over tbe heart and he said
it was a very nasty sensation. Luckily the case was etont enough to stop
tbe fragment.
I also bad one man laat week wbo
bad been shot through two fingers
sideways—that ia, on the flat, by a
rifle btlllet. Very clean cut and absolutely no damage to tbe fingers.
Also another wbo was shot tbrough
the middle of one toe. I asked him
host he got hit in such a peculiar way
and be said be was running. 1 didn't
find out wbicb way be was running.
The weather has been decidedly
rotten. I keep bearing rumors tbat
we will be returned to tbe American
service, but I guess tbey are wild cat
tales."

Antbtacnose, a disease of the bean
crop that in past years has been tbo
source of immense loss to Michigan
farmers, is on the run, in the opinion
of Dr. G. H. Coons, plant pathologist
at M. A. C. It can be kept that way,
he adds, if Michigan bean growers
will carefully pick their seed before
planting this spring.
"As a result of the last two dry
summers," Doctor Coons declares,
"the percentage of aotbracnose hae
been so reduced that not more than
one aample in  50 ot the thousand   we

buildings of that state in honor of tbe
one hundred aod seventeenth anniversary of ita adoption by congress,
June 14, 1777. The idea bas spread

This year the flag baa for us a

It means more to tbe world. It carries
a message of universal hope and cheer.
It has become the symbol of the
world's freedom. The world looks to

possible.
Wounded  in action, 4,046.
Missing ln action (including prisoners,)   342.
Total, 7,315.
This list does not include the marines on navy ships, the men lost at
sea being aboard transports.
The largest number were lost from
the Tuscania, when 209 men went
down.
While no official explanation was
given for the decision of the department to advise the country weekly of
the exact total of casualties since tbe
landing of the flrst ^merica-a forces
in France last June, it is understood
that it resulted largely from widespread repojts that casualties had
been very heavy and that total figures
were being withheld from the public.
It has been explained at the department that the daily Hats sent by Genera! Pershing are issued with as little delay ae possible. Casualties ara
so scattered in the lists that they will
not give information of value to tbe
enemy, but this does not mean that
any appreciable numbers are held
back. After heavy actions, auch as
that at Cantigny, It requires several
days to check up the casualties and
cable them to the department.
American troops bave been in the
trenches several months and now
hold sectors at several points along
the western front. In addition many
American units are brigaded with the
French and British and have been la
heavy fighting since the German drive
began in March.
General Pershing's men first went
into the front line last November for
training and aoon afterwarda they
took of a trench aector permanently.
Other units went into the trenchea
for final training with the French later and finally took over aectora so
that the total frontage now held by
the Americans rank second to tbat of
the French and British armies.
Should Be   Destroyed   As   Soon
As Possible.
Michigan faces a possible outbreak:
of black stem rust cf wheat this surfc-
mer such as that whicb destroyed about $3,000,000 worth of wheat in 1918.
Field men of M. A. O. are reporting
tbat rust has been obaerved witbin
tbe past few days in localities ae
widely separated as Bay City. Grand-
Rapids, Benton Harbor, Montcalm
county and Lansing, and as far nortb
as Iron Mountain, where several cases
of infection bave been found. The
rust is making its first appearance
upon the leaves of tbe common tali
barberry, and from these shrubs is being scattered to grain fields.
"This widespread presence of rust
on tbe common barberry means tbat
our greatelyiicereased acreage may
be endangered if the barberry is not
removed," aays Dr. G. H. Coons,
plant pathologist for the Experiment
Station of M. A. C.
"Reports from oursconts show that
the rust already is here, If two or
tbree damp daya should come, together with hot sultry weather, tbia
rust will spread like wildfire over the
grain fields, attacking oats, barley,
and rye as well as wbeat.
"The most effective way to check
this rust outbreak," aays Dr. Coons,
is to get rid at once of every common,
tall barberry bush in the state, of botb
the green leaf and tbe purple leaf
varieties."
A state-wide campaign to eradicate
these dangerous shrubs has been going   on in  Michigan for some  time.
