The German Fleet.
Copenhagen, Sept. 30, via London.—
Travelers arriving here from the Kiel
canal say that the Germans are busy
placing new guns, which the Krupp
works has been experimenting with
for the past two years, on the armored
cruisers and dreadnoughts.
The canal is described as being
crowded with warships, including the
largest battleships. The arsenals are
busy day and night, and long trains ar-
rive continuously with immense guns The Dixie Flyer will leave Chicago
for the ships.
The Germans are reported as de
claring that the whole fleet will soon
be ready to fight.
The above statement, if true, to
gether with the fact that the second
line of battleships were not in com
mission at the time when the war
broke out, adds credence to the ofB
cial German statements that the war
was not of their seeking.—Ed.

This Acme Sootless Will
Save You Dirt, Money
And Trouble
A dirty, smoky, sooty cooking coal is a nuisance. It makes your
house dirty all winter, keeps your's and your neighbor's roofs and porches
black with soot, spoils washings and makes itself generally disagreeable.
ACME SOOTLESS DON'T DO THAT
You get HEAT out of Acme Sootless and lots more of it per ton than
fiom ordinary cheap soft coals.
It won't clog your drafts, there won't be long banners and streamers
in your chimney and on the siove lids.
Every housekeeper who used our Acme Sootless last winter liked it
and will use it this winter.
We want you to try it too. We have a ton here for you, send in for it.
SPECIAL
Have a car of new dry pine lumber, a car of dry pine slabs, a car of
dry body split birch, 2 cars Scranton hard coal, ALSO a car of fresh
cement.
This is probably the last car of cement this season.

IMPORTANCE OF
AMENDMENT NO. 9
Great Advantages Will Accrue to Peo
ple of the State With Proper
Care of Forests.
Excellent home markets will be es
tablished by the passage of No. 9 the
State Forests* Amendment, which is
to be submitted to your vote Novem
ber 3rd. This measure provides that
all state forest land unfit for tillage
be used as State Forests, to be man
aged according to forestry principles.
Millions of dollars are lost annually
by selling non-tillable state lands with
the timber they contain to lumbermen
who cut the trees without regard to
young growth or reforestation allow
ing the land to lie idle. Our farmlands
employ many men. The forest lands
can be made to do likewise. Germany
employs one steady man for every one
hundred acres of forests.
By managing these State Forest
lands according to business like prin
ciples as provided in the Ninth
Amendment they will be made to pro
duce a perpetual crop of timber. The
pine forests will be treated like farm
crops. They will be harvested and re
planted. Many men will be employed
in handling such a "tree farm."
The cutting, manufacturing and
planting of the forest crop will require
steady labor. Happy homes will be
established, industries revived and
prosperous communities will be built
up. They and their families will re
quire food, clothing and supplies. The
men and horses demand thousands of
dollars worth of meat, flour, vege
tables, hay, grain and supplies. Sur
rounding agricultural districts will
find a permanent home market, where
they can sell their produce. Attracted
by good home markets, nearby agri
cultural districts now unsettled will
be developed. Roads will be built,
schools started and in addition the
State will make a handsome profit an
nually to the School Fund. As two
thirds of the Forest land affected by
this amendment is forested, revenue
will be immediate and the forests will
be self-sustaining from the beginning.
Such will be the results of manag
ing our non-agricultural State Forest
lands on business like principles. No.
9 the State Forests Amendment stands
for good business. Not to vote at all
is to vote against it. Remember this
November 3rd.
Casey-Daugherty.
A marriage of interest to a great
many Willmar people took place in
St. Patrick's church at Kandiyohi,
Wednesday morning, Sept. 30, at nine
o'clock, when Miss Florence Daugh
erty, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. John
F. Daugherty, became the bride of Mr.
Patrick L. Casey of Litchfield.
Promptly at nine o'clock, the bridal
party entered the church to the soft
strains of music played by Mrs. D. V.
Downs, and were met at the altar by
Rev. Fr. C. McDevitt of Willmar, who
read the marriage service. During
high mass, Miss Kathryn Casey of
Glenwood, cousin of the bride very
beautifully sang, "Ave Maria," and
"When Song is Sweet." The bride
was gowned in brocaded white satin'
over pink silk, and carried lilies of the
valley and bride's roses, with a full
veil.
Miss Daugherty was attended by
Miss Marjorie Daugherty of Willmar
who wore green crepe and carried
sweet peas. Mr. Casey was attired
in the conventional black and was at
tended by his brother, Walter Casey.
After the ceremony, the bridal couple
went to the home of the bride where
a wedding breakfast was served to
the immediate family of the groom
and bride, after which the young peo
ple left on the afternoon train for
their new home at Litchfield where
the groom is a prosperous young farm
er. Miss Daugherty Is well known
here, having graduated from the Will
mar high school and for the past few
years has taught school in different
districts in this county. The young
couple have the best wishes of a host
of friends for a happy future.—Con
tributed.
Why a Lyceum Course in Willmar.
Because it is uplifting to the child
as well as the adult. Our children will
be tomorrow what our town applauds
today. Our great business is to popu
larize the right things. Whatever we
applaud, we will have more of that—if
the wrong is popular, we will have
more of wrong if the right, we will
have more right. Our preachers can
preach, do right, do right, but unless
the majority of the citizens get out
and root for the right, your town will
will be far from doing right. Lyceum
courses have come to join the hands
of the preacher, the teacher and the
parent to root for the right. When
the crowd of best citizens gather to
hear a governor, an author, an ex
plorer, a scientist, an interpreter of
literature, a musician or entertainer,
the crowd is saying to every young
person in the most emphatic way:
HERE ARE YOUR HEROES AND
STANDARDS OF ATTAINMENT.—

HINTS TO AUTO OVVNER8
Suggestions for Care of Tires When
Not In Use During Winter
Months.
Mr. L. Greenwald, head of the Serv
ice Department of the Firestone Tire
& Rubber Company, suggests the fol
lowing precautions to auto owners:
When you are through with your
car for the season, jack it up, remove
the tires from the rims, and wash them
well with soap and water. Be sure
to remove all traces of oil or grease.
The rims too, should be sandpapered
to remove all traces of rust accumu
lation and painted with liquid graph
ite.
For the best protection, the tires
should be wrapped in clean cloth or
paper and laid flat in a cool, dark
place. If possible, store tires where
they will not be subjected to extremes
of heat and cold. A temperature of 40
to 60 degrees is most favorable for
avoiding chemical action in the rub
ber.
All Firestone tires are encased in
heavy paper at the factory, by a spec
ial wrapping machine, to protect them
from the deteriorating influence of
light until such time as they are ready
for use.
A very effective way is to wrap
them in strips of muslin or burlap,
about three inches wide. Wind these
strips around the tire and have each
wrap lap over about one inch.
Inner tubes should be deflated, and
placed in a box, or wrapped in a clean
cloth or paper, and laid flat in a dark
place with no weight resting on them.
If they are left in the tubes, they
should be partly inflated.
Never let the weight of the car rest
on the tires when laying up for the
winter months. Jack it up and allow
the axles to rest on supports. The
constant weight on one part of the
tire will cause it to flatten at that
point, creasing the fabric and greatly
weakening it. If the tires are left on
the rims, they should be thoroughly
cleaned and repaired and only enough
air pressure left in the tubes to keep
them well rounded. This prevents
them from wrinkling or cracking.
While the car is not in use is an
opportune time to have necessary re
pairs made on tires. It is the repair
shops slack season and, as you are in
no hurry for the return of the tires,
they can devote all the time necessary
for your job and do it right.
Examine tires well and have all cuts
in the tread extending through to the
fabric, repaired.
By following these suggestions, you
can add many miles to the life of your
tires.
