Sherman county intends to make
record for itself in wheat production
this season and while it is not likely
that all previous records will be bro

Cool weather at a time when the
moisture in the ground waa not too
plentiful, waa the ssving grace thii
season, ror several weeks weather
conditiona in Sherman county have
been close to the ideal, and the grain
has in consequence ripened very slow

period when the fall wheat waa put
In the "dough," hot weather would
have pulled down the prospects to
alarming degree.
While it is very true that the spring
sown wheat is not all out of danger,
with present weather conditions con
tinued for awhile longer, nothing ex
cept a strike of harvesters could posai
bly stop Sherman county from giving
an unusually good account of a very
good all around wheat producing sec
tion.
Good farming ia one of the secrets
of Sherman's generally good showing,
nd whenever nature helps out a little,
the outcome looks like magic. Sher

to farm and they are practicing wha

is 25 miles above SileU bay,.

sisting or an engine and three cars,
haa begun the task of hauling lumber
for the Union Pine lumber company.
Heretofore the lumber from the Cath
erine creek country has been hauled by

Lost Nerv and Stopped Motoi
Arms and Legs Broken,
Bethany Plains, Rheims, Frsnee
The second distressing accident of the
aviation meet here occurred when Bar
oness de la Roche, driving a Voisin
biplane, lost her nerve at a height of
50 meters, shut off the Hwer and fell
with her machine to the ground.
Her legs and arms were broken and
she suffered severe contusions, but the
doctors who have her case in hand hope
tor her recovery. It first was thouirht
she hsd sustained a fracture of the
skull, but this wss not the case.
At a height of 80 meters, the Bar
oness de la Roche had flown once
around the field. The spectators In the
grand stand were applauding her vocif
erously. Suddenly she appeared to be
come frightened at the approac
two other aeroplanes, one of which,
Sommer, driven by M. Lindpalnter,
paased directly over her.
The baroness, in a period of con
sciousness after the accident, saidj that
the rush of air from the motor over
head had thrown her into consterna
tion, and that she had put out the igni
tion and lost control. The machine
fell like a meteorite to the ground.
I be crowds rushed out on the field
and extricated the mangled and bloodv
form of the woman aviator from the
tangled debris, and conveyed .her to a
nearby hospital.
Meanwhile. Lindpalnter had descend
ed, and the crowd, believing him to be
responsible for the accident, threatened
to lynch him.
Gendarmes, however, threw a cordon
about the aviator and dispersed the ex
cited spectators. An inquiry by the
judges' committee showed that Lind
palnter waa In no way responsible for
the accident.
The first accident of the meeting oc
curred on the opening day, when

Berlin The liveliest interest is felt

has not yet been fowaded to the Ger
man government. The maintenance of
the status quo, which the agreement
is ostensibly intended to secure. Is con
sidered most desirable
The most delicate o-oint in the agree
ment refers, according to the semi
official Frankfurter Zeitung, to the un
derstanding to act actually on the de
fensive against the intervention by any
third power in Manchuria, which still
belongs to China. 'The agreement.
therefore, cannot be directed against
China.
It ia pointed out that America ob
tained from China concessions for the
Aigun-Chinchow railroad, and the ques
tion is now raised here whether the
agreement is intended to oppose Amer
ica s unwelcome intrusion in tne Kusso-
Jspanese sphere of influence. If so,
the agreement is taken to mesn the
