Board of Supervisors Should Enlarge the
Work o? Setting Forth Advantages
here for Settlers.
UMer charge of Representative
Kelley of Harwell, J. A. Jackson of
Clare, chairman of tbe board of supervisors, and A. M. Howard of Grandon,
01ar8 county Is malcing this week her
third exhibit at the state fair, this
year held in Detroit. Each of the two
previous exhibits won prizes in competition with the older counties of the
state and the committee seem to think
this year's exhibit fully the equal of
-the others, Along with the display of
products the committee in dlstribut-
ing3,000 illustriated pamphlets setting
forth the agricultural resources of the
county and the opportunity for settlers
to procure lands at reasonable prices.
The illustrations are largely made up
of t(hose secured by the Sbntinbl in
the last year or two in eiving farm
write-ups and loaned the committee
to help forward the work of advertising Olare county. The pamphlet is a
very creditable one but to the average
person, acquainted with conditions in
the county, it is, for the purpose of
bringing settlers here, not specific
enough in setting fdrth actual improvements accomplished by settlers
in recent years. Numerous examples
could oasily be cited where ordinary
people with a very limited capital have
in the past five years developed from
thirty to eighty acres of a good farm
out of the virgin land and in a few
years more will have as good farms as
can be found anywhere in the state.
But the supervisor's committee with
added experience will doubtless enlarge the scope of their work and thus
the more quickly hasten the time
when Glare county's possibilities shall
be realized.
The exhibit will be returned from
the state fair and be put on exhibition
at the county fair at Harrison September 28-30, plans for which are now
in course of consumation. From Secretary Quinn comes the information
that this year's county fair promises
to be the best one yet held under the
auspices of the Olare County Agricultural Society.
Notiee To Teaehers.
The Department of Public Instruction Tiave given out the list of readings
for especial study during the year.
Questions in reading at the various
teachers'and state eighth grade examinations will be based on these
selections. It is essential that they
be given much attention. Teachers
having eigrhth graders who expect to
take the state examination should see
to it that "The Landing of the Pilgrims" be thoroughly studied. The
Moderator-Topics gives an excellent
stddy outline on all these selections.'
Teachers' reading-circle books for this
year are, Dutton's School Management, Newcomer's American Litera-
ature, and Heilprin's The Earth and
its story. These books may be procured, the three boxed, for two dollars
by addressing Scott, Foresman & Co.,

supply for distribution at this time.

"Golly, I'd like to club the cuss that

"That hole in the ground will be

"Glare Tammany is looking around

"Well, I guess Happy Holligan will

"'Tisn't the democrat farty that is

"That surface well water a few

Watching the ploughing on McEwan

ground in the county."
''Moved a few times more and those
cobble stones will be so worn down
they'll be ftt for nothing but gravel."
"Better organize a bucket brigade
to be ready to get water from neighboring wells when the tank is built."
"Why in the dickens are the city

of works on the water supply question?"
"Till this year I always thought the
Mayor had a pretty good business

"Dandy pressure we had atjbhe Foss

GLARE'S GRAVEL PIT.
Vast Quantity of the Finest Gracie
of Road Gravel will Transform
Streets and Roads.
A visit to the big gravel pit just
north of the city limits this week
showed severalacres ols'plendld'graveT
averaging at least nine feet thick.
Just a little of clay is distributed uniformly through it so that it readily
packs-for road purposes.
Twelve teams were hauling gravel
to McEwan street, requiring six
shovelers at the pit, three levelers on
the street and a team and two men
removing the surface dirt above the
gravel, with Ohas. Galley in charge,
Each team was hauling 360 cubic feet
a day, thirty cubic feet to the load,
the total cost for hauling being about
forty-one cents per load, which with
ten cents per load to the owner of the
land makes the total cost of fifty-one
cents. This will vary with distance
gravel is hauled.
But the outlook is such that it is
easy to predict the graveling of Glare's
streets, and many miles of road within easy reach of the pit during the
few years. Let the good work go on.
What They are Doing.

NEW TRUANCY LAW.
Has Many Provisions Which
Makes it More Effective.
The new law provides that the director of each school district shall furnish to the teacher, on the first day of
school a copy of the school census of
the district, giving the name and age
of each person In the district between
7 and 15 years of age, their place of
residence of their parents' or guardian.
All these chttdren are required to
attend school continuously for the
whole time school is held in their
school district. All teachers are required to make regular reports to the
county school commissioner, which
shall give the names, age, residence,
etc., of all the children who have been
absent from school at any time since
their last report.
Sheriffs of each county are required
to appoint one or more deputy sheriffs
as truancy officers for the county,
Village and city schools may have
truancy officers of their own. These
officers are to be furnished with reports from teachers and it will be
their duty to see that ail these child'
ren are in school are in school regular
iy. * '
Parents and guardians are liable for
the non-attendance of these children.
The new law provides that they be
fined hot less than $5 nor more than
$50 or imprisoned not less than two

children are not sent regularly to
school for the whole time-there is
school in their district. The children

THAT WATER SUPPLY.
Well No. 3 Yields Large Quantity
of Water, Much Harder Than
That from Avefage Well.
At a depth of l46 feet well number
two at the city park failed'to'glve th*
expected water supply and operations
were suspended, but a two inch well
may be continued deeper therefrom.
Well number three' at a depth of
forty-one feet had passed through
eleven feet of good water gravel and a
pumping test of thirty-six hours
shows no diminution of supply,
amounting to oyer 150,000 gallons in
that time. The water is as clear as
crystal and tastes O. K. It has not
been chemically analyzed but a test
shows it much harder' than water
from the average well in the city.
The capacity of the new pumps is
1,000,000 gallons m twenty-four hours
and it is proposed to put down other
wells to the same depth. However,
it is not yet known" whether one will
drain the Other or not.

public at the time but Denslow kept
still. A detective was hired but by
the time he located the man who &ot
the $200 and apprehended him, it was
all spent. An effort is now being
made to settle the matter.
SHE WANTED TOO MUCH.
WORK OF FLYWHEEL EXPERT.
Only One Man Engaged in This Form
of Insurance.
Only one company issues fly wheel
insurance, because only one man can
Write it. He is monarch of all his inspectors survey: his right there is
none to dispute. Two years ago he
was a professor in a small engineering college with some theories and
figures of his own about flywheels.
His success is largely due to his
own formula, for flywheel insurance
is almost pure mathematics. When a
wheel is revolved at a high enough
speed the centrifugal force exceeds
the centripetal and the wheel flies
apart. Solid cast iron explodes when
the speed at the rim is, roughly, three
miles a minute. A thick rim explodes
just as easily as a thin one of the
same material. Wood explodes at a
greater speed, jointed iron at a less.
The underwriter allows a rim speed
of a mile a minute, one-third the explosion rate, as a safe limit for solid
iron wheels. This permits a two foot
pulley wheel sixteen revolutions a second, while it keeps a sixteen foot flywheel down to two. A- jointed wheel
is allowed still less. The underwriter
has only to name the number of revolutions he authorizes, and to proportion his premium to the size of the
wheel. The larger the wheel, of
course, the mpre • destructive its explosion.—Leslie's Magazine.

Good-Natured Butcher Was Tired of
His Customer.
"Well, I've just had my patience
medicine," said our particularly good-
natured butcher the other morning.
"Your patience medicine?" I asked
questloningly.
"Why, yes," he replied, seriously,
"I am having my patience tried daily
now, and at the same time I feel that
it Is being greatly benefited."
"Well, what's the cure?" I was led
to ask, though I hardly expected it to
be what it was.
"Why, for the past two weeks," responded the butcher, "I've had a new
customer. Daily she comes in and
buys three-quarters of a pound of
meat. No more and no less will do,
and woe be unto me if I fail to give
her the exact amount. That wouldn't
he so bad if she didn't insist always
on having it sen?, I was getting somewhat used to even that when she appeared the other day to buy her meat.
About ten minutes after I had served
her she reappeared carrying a loaf of
bread which she also wanted, me to
send with the meat. I had soarcely recovered my composure after that when
she appeared with a head of lettuce.
That day was pretty severe on me,
but to-day she has just finished upbraiding me because I did not have
a postage stamp to sell her. If she

Exhibit at State Fair This Week and September 28-30 It will be a Part of County Fair. •*£_ f. ~J &• Board of Supervisors Should Enlarge the Work o? Setting Forth Advantages here for Settlers. UMer charge of Representative Kelley of Harwell, J. A. Jackson of Clare, chairman of tbe board of supervisors, and A. M. Howard of Grandon, 01ar8 county Is malcing this week her third exhibit at the state fair, this year held in Detroit. Each of the two previous exhibits won prizes in competition with the older counties of the state and the committee seem to think this year's exhibit fully the equal of -the others, Along with the display of products the committee in dlstribut- ing3,000 illustriated pamphlets setting forth the agricultural resources of the county and the opportunity for settlers to procure lands at reasonable prices. The illustrations are largely made up of t(hose secured by the Sbntinbl in the last year or two in eiving farm write-ups and loaned the committee to help forward the work of advertising Olare county. The pamphlet is a very creditable one but to the average person, acquainted with conditions in the county, it is, for the purpose of bringing settlers here, not specific enough in setting fdrth actual improvements accomplished by settlers in recent years. Numerous examples could oasily be cited where ordinary people with a very limited capital have in the past five years developed from thirty to eighty acres of a good farm out of the virgin land and in a few years more will have as good farms as can be found anywhere in the state. But the supervisor's committee with added experience will doubtless enlarge the scope of their work and thus the more quickly hasten the time when Glare county's possibilities shall be realized. The exhibit will be returned from the state fair and be put on exhibition at the county fair at Harrison September 28-30, plans for which are now in course of consumation. From Secretary Quinn comes the information that this year's county fair promises to be the best one yet held under the auspices of the Olare County Agricultural Society. Notiee To Teaehers. The Department of Public Instruction Tiave given out the list of readings for especial study during the year. Questions in reading at the various teachers'and state eighth grade examinations will be based on these selections. It is essential that they be given much attention. Teachers having eigrhth graders who expect to take the state examination should see to it that "The Landing of the Pilgrims" be thoroughly studied. The Moderator-Topics gives an excellent stddy outline on all these selections.' Teachers' reading-circle books for this year are, Dutton's School Management, Newcomer's American Litera- ature, and Heilprin's The Earth and its story. These books may be procured, the three boxed, for two dollars by addressing Scott, Foresman & Co., Chicago, At the coming teachers' institute the commissioner will have a supply for distribution at this time.

Clay's novel, -'Dora Thorne" has been dramatized and will be presented at the opera house next Tuesday exening.^ The story is one of the most successful of its kind written.

Was a Former Fan all Lawyer Clarence Ladd Davis, an eccentric young" lawyer who had an Office in Farwell some-years ago, attempted to commit suicide in _Tew York last Saturday, Since leaving Farwell Davis has had a checkered career. Ten years ago he married the noted "Scott- Brown" the woman who devised a system of shorthand named after he_ who is now seventy-Sour years Of age and thirty yearn his aeniojr. For some Mme he has shown sighs of mental de* fakement afid the cfatlatim _eien- 6foj6a Mw tea tse&tSflg bte* Heard on the Street. "Hizzoner is getting ready to get out of office." "Golly, I'd like to club the cuss that drives over my terrace." "That hole in the ground will be the administration's grave." "Glare Tammany is looking around for a scape goat. Wonder why?" "Well, I guess Happy Holligan will rest in peace for a while now anyway." "'Tisn't the democrat farty that is running the water plant bizness, 'tis the gang." "Jake kicks himself every load of gravel he sees come in from his-former Old gravel pit." "That surface well water a few months ago was hard as blazes, but now !" Watching the ploughing on McEwan street—"There's the best wheat ground in the county." ''Moved a few times more and those cobble stones will be so worn down they'll be ftt for nothing but gravel." "Better organize a bucket brigade to be ready to get water from neighboring wells when the tank is built." "Why in the dickens are the city dads now so deferential to the board of works on the water supply question?" "Till this year I always thought the Mayor had a pretty good business head, but now—Oh! well, don't ask me." "Dandy pressure we had atjbhe Foss fire last week. Why in h—1 didn't the oity dads fix those pumps a year ago.'; "'Tisn't the administration that's making the streets of Olare, its individual enterprise—we started. it and. we are individually paying for it too." "Whoop ta la! Pass the word around boys. We've got water at last but don't tell anybody it's the same kind of shallow well water we've had all along." _ • "Good for Bro. Callam. If it were not for his good sense we'd now be having Tobacco river water, which in a few years will be no better than our present supply from the creek." - "Dr. A. B. Spinney will be at Oalkins House, Thursday, Sept. 21, from 10;00 a. m. to 3:00 p. m. See ad." Bay your lime* and cement of the BaJOh-Wyiaaji Graia Oov GLARE'S GRAVEL PIT. Vast Quantity of the Finest Gracie of Road Gravel will Transform Streets and Roads. A visit to the big gravel pit just north of the city limits this week showed severalacres ols'plendld'graveT averaging at least nine feet thick. Just a little of clay is distributed uniformly through it so that it readily packs-for road purposes. Twelve teams were hauling gravel to McEwan street, requiring six shovelers at the pit, three levelers on the street and a team and two men removing the surface dirt above the gravel, with Ohas. Galley in charge, Each team was hauling 360 cubic feet a day, thirty cubic feet to the load, the total cost for hauling being about forty-one cents per load, which with ten cents per load to the owner of the land makes the total cost of fifty-one cents. This will vary with distance gravel is hauled. But the outlook is such that it is easy to predict the graveling of Glare's streets, and many miles of road within easy reach of the pit during the few years. Let the good work go on. What They are Doing. The resumption of school work finds changes in the teaching ranks both for those who came to Clare and those who go elsewhere to teach.

The new law provides that the director of each school district shall furnish to the teacher, on the first day of school a copy of the school census of the district, giving the name and age of each person In the district between 7 and 15 years of age, their place of residence of their parents' or guardian. All these chttdren are required to attend school continuously for the whole time school is held in their school district. All teachers are required to make regular reports to the county school commissioner, which shall give the names, age, residence, etc., of all the children who have been absent from school at any time since their last report. Sheriffs of each county are required to appoint one or more deputy sheriffs as truancy officers for the county, Village and city schools may have truancy officers of their own. These officers are to be furnished with reports from teachers and it will be their duty to see that ail these child' ren are in school are in school regular iy. * ' Parents and guardians are liable for the non-attendance of these children. The new law provides that they be fined hot less than $5 nor more than $50 or imprisoned not less than two days nor more than 90 days, or both such fine and imprisonment, if their children are not sent regularly to school for the whole time-there is school in their district. The children are also liable to arrest as truants and to be sent to Lansing or Adrain Industrial Schools. THAT WATER SUPPLY. Well No. 3 Yields Large Quantity of Water, Much Harder Than That from Avefage Well. At a depth of l46 feet well number two at the city park failed'to'glve th* expected water supply and operations were suspended, but a two inch well may be continued deeper therefrom. Well number three' at a depth of forty-one feet had passed through eleven feet of good water gravel and a pumping test of thirty-six hours shows no diminution of supply, amounting to oyer 150,000 gallons in that time. The water is as clear as crystal and tastes O. K. It has not been chemically analyzed but a test shows it much harder' than water from the average well in the city. The capacity of the new pumps is 1,000,000 gallons m twenty-four hours and it is proposed to put down other wells to the same depth. However, it is not yet known" whether one will drain the Other or not. Livery for Sale. A livery stock situated at Farwell. No opposition and a good business.

Ex-County Surveyor Grant D. Den- slow is under a cloud and has moved from Mt. Pleasant to Beidfng. It appears that his little daughter last Juiy found 3200 lost by a Mrs. Gee and gave it to her father. The loss was made, public at the time but Denslow kept still. A detective was hired but by the time he located the man who &ot the $200 and apprehended him, it was all spent. An effort is now being made to settle the matter. SHE WANTED TOO MUCH. WORK OF FLYWHEEL EXPERT. Only One Man Engaged in This Form of Insurance. Only one company issues fly wheel insurance, because only one man can Write it. He is monarch of all his inspectors survey: his right there is none to dispute. Two years ago he was a professor in a small engineering college with some theories and figures of his own about flywheels. His success is largely due to his own formula, for flywheel insurance is almost pure mathematics. When a wheel is revolved at a high enough speed the centrifugal force exceeds the centripetal and the wheel flies apart. Solid cast iron explodes when the speed at the rim is, roughly, three miles a minute. A thick rim explodes just as easily as a thin one of the same material. Wood explodes at a greater speed, jointed iron at a less. The underwriter allows a rim speed of a mile a minute, one-third the explosion rate, as a safe limit for solid iron wheels. This permits a two foot pulley wheel sixteen revolutions a second, while it keeps a sixteen foot flywheel down to two. A- jointed wheel is allowed still less. The underwriter has only to name the number of revolutions he authorizes, and to proportion his premium to the size of the wheel. The larger the wheel, of course, the mpre • destructive its explosion.—Leslie's Magazine.

"Well, I've just had my patience medicine" said our particularly good- natured butcher the other morning. "Your patience medicine?" I asked questloningly. "Why, yes" he replied, seriously, "I am having my patience tried daily now, and at the same time I feel that it Is being greatly benefited." "Well, what's the cure?" I was led to ask, though I hardly expected it to be what it was. "Why, for the past two weeks" responded the butcher, "I've had a new customer. Daily she comes in and buys three-quarters of a pound of meat. No more and no less will do, and woe be unto me if I fail to give her the exact amount. That wouldn't he so bad if she didn't insist always on having it sen?, I was getting somewhat used to even that when she appeared the other day to buy her meat. About ten minutes after I had served her she reappeared carrying a loaf of bread which she also wanted, me to send with the meat. I had soarcely recovered my composure after that when she appeared with a head of lettuce. That day was pretty severe on me, but to-day she has just finished upbraiding me because I did not have a postage stamp to sell her.
