r ZEPPELIN RAIDS TEST OF MACHINE M l 1 re 4 J V. I! 1 (lew Dirigible Used In Recent Flights Over England. OFFICERS FEAR MORE BOMBS Motorcycle Said to Have Toured Path of Raider and Indicated Route With Brilliant Headlight People Treat Bombs Lightly, but Officials Take Many Precautions. Lowestoft, England. A tour by mo torcycle over the path -which the latest Zeppelin raider tools across and around thia section of England supports the opinion that he had no particular mili tary object in view. The big dirigible first was sighted at Southwold soon after midnight and disappeared over tho sea at Lowestoft about an hour later. It made an extended tour over a considerable area, dropping a large number of incendiary bombs and a few explosive bombs, but spending nearly half its time maneuvering In tho neighborhood of Ilenham hall, a ram bling old mansion. It is possible the pilot mistook the hall for some other building which fca supposed to be of military Importance.

Dispatches from Holland quote Ger man naval officers as stating the Zep pelin used for this raid was a new one and tho trip was In the nature of a test Oversea navigation Is an art only to be acquired after long experience, and it Is possible the visit to this section had little significance except as training for pilots and men. The raider passed over Lowestoft two or three times, a calm night mak ing maneuvering easy. A fire bomb which fell into a pile of timber did damage estimated at $23,000, and tho two or three explosive bombs which found targets did slight damage. Elsewhere there was nothing to tell of the passage of the invader excrpt some holes in the ground, some broken windows, doors torn from their hinges and a gossiping countryside. The broken windows and damaged doors wnere regarded lightly by the inhabit ants, and their feelings were rather of astonishment and surprise than fear or dismay. "I've lived in this bouse twen ty years, and nothing like this ever happened before," was a characteristic comment in the farming districts. There are many stories of miraculous escapes, but most of them have little basis In actual fact. Countryside gos sip U also busily engaged in rounding up mysterious spies, and fully half the people in the visited district bellove the hackneyed story of a mysterious mo torcyclist who piloted the visitor by means of a headlight of peculiar bril liancy. While the civilians are generally in clined to treat lightly tho result of the Zeppelin activity, military men in charge of the various defense projects incline to a more serious view. They are generally of the opinion that the raids are in the naturo of reconnols sances and will bo followed by more determined attempts shortly. Zeppe lins' have now reached the English coast several times, and with good luck and favorable weather they may bo ex pected to return eventually in larger numbers and with more serious inten tions.

' Ji RESIDENCE AND FINE NEW DARNS ON SPRINCDALE STOCK FARM LOCATED ONE MILE NORTH AND ONE AND ONE-QUARTER MILES EAST OF YALE. .... , . . tvmMW MWftw.W en awn Drindale Stock Farm Consisting of One Hundred Twenty Acres, Owned by George Mclntyre, of Yale Several years ago George Mclntyro purchased the 30 acro farm, ono milo north and one and one-fourth miles cast of Yalo, known as the Joe Duval place. Previous to the timo Air. Mclntyro purchased this property -it had pusscd into tho hands of W. A. Woodruff, who made many improvements and put the land in first-class condition. Fred Tocts afterwards owned it for a short time. Since coming into tho hands of Mr. Mclntyre, new barns and out-buildings havo been erected and all neatly painted, tho fields fenced with' woven wire, new gates with cement pillars on cither side built, and to say tho least, everything is in ship shape. Across tho highway to tho south is 40 acres known as tho Joo llcrron farm which has been addod to the 80 and makes a farm of 120 acres. This pieco of proporty was bought of E. II. Drake. There is not in tho wholo township of Brockway a moro ideal farm for stock raisiDg. A spring brook runs through tho place from which is taken tho name of 4Springdale Stock Farm." Tho soil is of sandy loam, the land lays nicely and is rolling, all boing under cultivation, with only about two acres of bush. Mr. Mclntyro will make a specialty of raising registered llolstoin cattlo and has a good start already. The barns, which aro L-shaped, ono 40x70, the other 36x40, with stono basements, aro finely equipped, cement floors throughout, nicely lighted and perfectly ventilated with Queen ventilators, thoroughly drained, water system and sanitary in every particular. In the cow stablo aro steel stalls and stanchions, box stalls for young cattle, a feed alley with chutes from the loft above, a door ' at tho end of tho alloy opening into tho silo. The horso' stable has singlo stalls to accommodulo six horses, and ono box stall. A milk room 10x18 feet is located in the southeast part of tho larger baru. This is equipped with a separator and is also sanitary in cvory particular. Besides tho big barns is an implement shod 3Gx40 feet, hen house, hog pen and granary. A set of wagon scales havo been installed. Thoro is a fino largo dwolling house on tho farm, which has recently been overhauled and nicely fittod up. It has been repainted and presents an elegant appearance. "Springdalc Stock Farm" is worked and carefully look ed after by Mr. and Mrs. Miko Noll. Both aro splendid neighbors, hard workers, industrious, thrifty and frugal Germans. Alike understands farming in all its details and is u first-class man for Mr. Mclntyro to havo on tho place. Locatod as it is, only two and ono-fourth miles from tho center of the City of Yale, makes "Spriugdalo Stock Farm" a very desirable pieco of property. Tho many decided im provements which Mr., Mclntyro has mado on tho farm makes it still moro valuable. Wo congratulate tho proprie tor of "Springdalo Stock Farm" on its neat appearance May ho moct with tho greatest of success. GEORGE McINTYRE, PROPRIETOR OF SPRINCDALE STOCK FARM.
