Sev­ eral hundred farmers from different parts of the county came to see the practical demonstration of the big traction plows and were vpry favorably impressed with the kind of work they, do. There was very little difference in the quality of the work done by the different machines, but in the hand­ ling of the plows and engines the Rum- ley outfit was considered the best. The plowing done by the different machines was very even and perfect in every re­ spect, showing that the power plow has been perfected to a very satisfac­ tory degree and will soon be in demand by most farmers. The combination arrangement, by which such work as harrowing, disking, seeding, harvest­ ing, running silo filler, etc., can be done, makes the outfit much more 6at- BKt DAIRY PICNIC TO BB ftELD ON SATURDAY, SEPT. M, AT tfcE ALONXO ANDREWS PAIR \ A big dairy picnic of the members of the Marengo and Greenwood Cow Test­ ing associations and their friends has been arranged for Saturday, September 26, at the Alonzo Andrews farm two miles west of Franklinvilld and three miles north of Union. An excellent program has been ar­ ranged and a delightful and instructive day is proniised to all who can be pres­ ent. The members of the two associa­ tions have been weighing and testing the milk of eaeh oow in their hencj}* for several months, two men paving been hired to do the work." In addition u> keeping the records qf£he cows, a com­ plete record of all wdfk done on the farm is also being kept S9 that at the end of the year each member will know exactly what it cost him to raise each crop and what hid net profit on same will be.

A. Nelson at Woodstock, accompanied by his staff of assistants and field workers. At Woodstock local friends of the com­ pany had brought their automobiles »nH were gathered on the square in front of the Farmers' Exchange bank, where the guests were distributed to the various ears for transportation to MeHenry. yy»h car was supplied with a ban­ ner, on. which were the words, "Peo­ ple's Ufe Insurance Company, Agents' Picnic." There ^ere fourteen cars in the run and they made a pretty sight as they proceeded in file around the public square, go&g out of Woodstock over the new Dean street paving. The run to McHenry was made over a circuitous route, by way of Crystal Lake, where a brief stop was made to visit the Crystal Lake State bank, of which the insurance company is a heavy stockholder. Upon arrival at MeHenry the guests awembled at the Riverside hotel, where tables were set for a fish and chicken banquet, such as it is but sel­ dom our opportunity to enjoy. President E. A. Nelson presided at the banquet and announced that there would be no speeches at that time, ho wever, he wanted the guests to un­ derstand that they had been riding thru and were being entertained in "tfiebome of the company," meaning MpHenry bounty, where large blocks of People's Life stock are held. Mr. Nelson also informed those as­ sembled that the company had just acquired the business and policies of the American Life Insurance company, amounting in volume to about one and one-half millions of dollars in written politic1, t hat the deal had been rati­ fied by botth the state' insurance de­ partment and by the officials of the other company and that the work of trsacfarring the business was then un­ der w.ijr. ATh-r Uic- banquet the guests were brought u> the boat house of the Everett Hunter company, where two Of tbc largest motor boats had been Chartered and were in waiting. The trip pp the river thru the var­ ious bays. and lakes sod return wag a most delightful one, the entire trip on water being about thirty-five miles &ru! consuming the entire afternoon. Alter the return to McHenry an­ other hearty Weal was served by Mine Host Gans, following which brief ad- Arosses were made by George W. Conn, Jr., Fremont Hoy, W; Jel. ficliert and a number #f the oomp^n^V leading agents. The return to Woodstytok followed wipiout special incident, the visitors returning to Chicago on^ au . evening train, all declaring Woodstock, Crystal Lake and McHenry ideal places to en­ joy a summer day's outing, and speak­ ing volumes for the future prosperity of the People's Life Insurance com­ pany. While the larger number of the visitors were from Chicago, the visitors included representatives from Detroit, Mich., and numerous towns in lidiana and Illinois. FOR MRS. WERTWOmi^ The members of the Ladies' After- - nooft card club held an all day session at Locust Lodge, the country home of Mrs. S. S. Giddings, near McCollum's la)te, on Wednesday pi this week,"the occasion being made a gala day in hon­ or of the twentieth wedding anniver­ sary of a member, Mrs. W. D. Went- worth. The ladies from here made the (rip by automobile and on their arrival at McCollum's lake they were velcomely received by the host­ ess. At noon a picnic dinner was served.

It is also certain that more traction plows will be present to dem­ onstrate their work and that the plow­ ing match will be an annual event in McHenry county. A few other plow­ ing matches are held in the state every year and'are usually attended'by thous­ ands of people.. The Empire milking machine, ex­ hibited by Frank Good row of Wood­ stock, and the Sharpies milker, exhib­ ited by Manley Hardware company of Harvard, attracted considerable atten­ tion and lpuch favorable comment from those present. CUTS HAKNESS AND STEALS ROBE A stranger cut a harness and stole a lap robe on August Bossman last Sat­ urday night and for doing this he is now confined in the county jail at Woodstock. It seems ihat on last Sat­ urday night Mr. Rossman had occasion to drive to town and, as has been his custom for a number of years, he drove his team into the tie sheds in the rear of the Theo. Schiessle buffet. He tied up and set about to do a bit of shop­ ping about town and on his return he found that' the harness on the team had been slashed and a lap robe was also missiq^. The matter was at once reported to Mr. Schiessle as well as Officer L. "F. Newman. Search was made that night, but no trace of the thief was found. The following morn­ ing the officials received a tip that a stranger carrying'a robe was seen go­ ing up the railroad track. A search­ ing party set out and after several hours a suspicious looking character was discovered ijn the corn Held on the Schiller farm, near McCollum's lake. He also had the robe in his possession. He was brought to McHenry and lodged in our jail and the following morning was brought before Justice J. W. Kimball. Being unable to give a satisfactory explanation as to how he came into possession of the robe, the fellow, was bound over to the grand jury and isnow making his headquar­ ters in the • county jail at Woodstock. Who the fellow is and where he came from nobody knows, as Saturday night was the /first time that he had been seen in the village. It looks like a case where nhe fellow wanted a win­ ter's lodging and thought that this would be about as easy a way to get it as any.

Md- Omber of this village, as almost every­ body knows, has been with the firm of Pardee & .Co , and their Successors, Stanton & Co., on MadisOn street, Chi­ cago, for the past fifteen years and he had been there so long and had attend­ ed so strictly to business that he had almost become a fixture in the firm. His genial, ways and genuine business faculties made him popular with all. He has now concluded to go into busi­ ness for himself, and in speaking of the change the Chicago Herald of Wednesday last sayjw '-Gap" has quit Stanton's.. A good many people here in Chicago will know what thai means without a\i explanation. But the fagt. is that Captain C. H. McOmber, who" is familiarly known as "Cap," Las cut loose from Stanton's and Pardee's where he has been in charge for fif­ teen years, and is to go into business for himself In the new Stock Exchange building on Monroe street. Everyone who ever visited Stanton's knows "Cap"--the good naiured mau >vith the sandy moustache and red hair, who has always stbod around the outer- portal and had general charge of things. "Cap" would have been a capitalist long before this had it not been for the collapse of the State's Sav­ ing institution, It was there that he. had "planted" all of his extra dollais and when the bubble wap pricked Cap" dropped with it. He was not discouraged, however. He took oil' hi- coat and started in again as tho noth­ ing had . happened. Now he is going in for himself and he intends to lind out how many friends he has.
