FIFTIETH YEAR NO. 23. CEDARVILLE, OHIO, FRIDAY, JUNE 24,1927. t . . . > ■ ■ * ■ * - PEICE, ?1,50 A YEAR PROF, TRLCOTT HELPSRECEIVE NOTEDFLYER Somebody fumbled in the arrnnge- went* when Charles Linbdergh made * visit-to Dayton Wednesday evening to be the guest of Orville Wright, the noted authority on aviation, being one of the first, with his brother, Wilhuiv to fly the heavier than air machines, Lindbergh arrived a t Wright field about seven o’clock and more than 100,000 Dayton citizens lined the down town streets waiting to* extend a reception to the ‘honored guest as he passed through the city by motor to the Wright home- While there Were thousands about the Wright field those in charge sent Lindy in a round about way to anoth­ er part of the 4city to reach the Wright home, In this way the great mass "of'pebple"that, had ‘ lined the streets in the center of the city for four or five hours waiting on the parade v/ere completely pooled. The crowd did not take kindly to the man­ ner in .which they were treated. * I t seems that Lindbergh had noti­ fied Dayton of his intention to stop fo r a private visit with Mr.* Wright and did not wish a public demonstra; txon at* this time, Dayton wanted to display its best and show its honored guest* what “the home- pf aviation” could do / As Lindbergh wanted ' no demonstration a round atjout way, was taken to the Wright home. Since that time prominent citizens connected ■with the celebration have been doing a Jot of explaining. Officers a t Wright field gave Lindy a royal welcome, before the start was made for the Wright home. On the reception committee' at the field was P ro f..J. A. Taleott, who was a per­ sonal friend of Major Lanphier, . of Selfridge field, Mt. Clematis, who ac­ companied , Lindbergh , from St. Louis to Dayton, •Prof.' Taleott ser­ ved in Prance in the a ir corps under Major Lanphier, Prof, Taleott ‘was also among the party of officials from Wright, field that accompanied Lindy to the Wright.home. ** * . Lindbergh whs on a trip from S t •hingtpn, D, C* in, an __ St in separate planes. The, party le ft Dayton a t 10:40 A., M. A number from here went to Day- ton to swell the crowd for Lindy. Those that remained down town did not get a glimpse of him. while those who went to Wright field saw the St, Louis hero arrive. Predicts Bad Year l For Com Crop | He may know his onions but what the predicts about the ebrn in this year j of 1927 doe* not make for good read­ ing. , Herbert Janvrin Brown, a famed weather forecaster sees only trouble and disaster fo r our crops this year, An early winter proceeded by early frosts, more tornadoes, a series of violent West Indian hurricanes, some of which may rival in intensity the Florida hurricane of la s t September, severe hail stormB, cloudbursts, more floods and a markedly cool summer are some of Brown’s predictions. Frosts are predicted from 'the last of June to”July 3 in portions of the corn belt and as far south as the Ohio and Potomac xiyers, Very dangerous frosts from July 7 to the 11th over the same sections, - • Brown prophesies the com crop for 1927 will probahly be the, worst on, record* the apple crop" will be the smallest in many ,years, and late spring frosts and other severe weath­ er abnomalties will cause great dam­ age to other cropsj * HEWKINDGLOVER NOWDEVELOPED Xenia Merchants Are Candidates I f goveriimeht' scientists have their way, the American farmer will short­ ly have a forage plant that takes chte of itself even to planting its own seed for the next crop. I t is known as sub­ terranean clover, Tins plant has been Under study a t Arlington Expert mental station and’thus fa r has pass­ ed all the required tests. r # As the seed pods are formed the stem hearing them, starts to bend downward and in a'few days reaches the surface of the ground. I t then scratches into th e earth *with such force, that if the soiL is not hard it is able to make a slight excavation where the seed is dropped and planted This hew clover Was brought from Europe and parts o f Ireland, where it is well thought of by farmers as feed, for live stock. I t grows rapidly and abundantly, From the Orient has come a similar clover, the ‘Lespedeza, poppetuatos itself evert after it ground.. % perennial1 Japan clover has already -been naturalized in the southern United States. Government scientists see great pos sibjlities in the use o f,the Oriental clover, which ripens early,, and the Irish clover, which ripens late, both perpetuating . themselves without trouble to the farmer. With selfjper- petu&tihg forage crops, it is expected that the American farmer will, sate time and expense fo r seeding.. NORMAL FACULTY HEREFRIDAYFOR CONFERENCE Charles Kelble, prominent Xenia merchant will be a candidate for the office of City Commission, he having nerved but part of a term to fill a vacancy. Mr. Kelble is one of the leading business men in his city and being a holder of much property, is interested in continuing* good good government and has consented to ru n again. He,has made'an excellent of­ ficial and should be re-elected. I t is Uncertain whether Dr. McPherson will be- a candidate again, Jacob Kany is also a candidate, there being two places to fill: Mr. Kany has served on the school board for many years and has been in business long enough to know everybody by name in his city. Cincinnati Pike Is N oy Open V ' ■-v;-1!—mi- *. _ After being closed for many weeks the Cincinnati pjke is now open from Xenia south with the exception of a short detour in Spring Valley where a cement street is being laid. The opening of this road makes the route to Cincinnati but 63 miles from here, the shortest possible distance by road. The Columbus pike east of town is not yet open ahd may not he for sev­ eral weeks as the section of the road storied last summer is not completed between Selma and South Charleston. I t is likely that this road will be closed when work starts towards the widening of the road between town and the Clayton McMillan farm.

Turner W^s one of the strongest men oh the state tick­ et last year and is a brilliant attorney with wealth enough to be independ­ ent and have no concern for political deals planned by the fellows who arc continually holding their hands at their-back. We are informed this week that Myers Y, Cooper, who ran last year, s*a certain candidate for the second try. Cooper has funds a t his command to build up n» organization that may give him the primary vote, as he did once before. His connection with the Ohio, fair boards gives him no little strength among the rural element. Springfield political leaders - say Congressman Brand is to be content to seek another term in Congress and let someone else clear the atmosphere for governor. With Cooper an avow­ ed candidate; Brand would be on the short end of the vote as both are strong only in rural sections, Clark county leaders say Brand’s mixup with the insurance companies over rates on farm property makes him face real opposition from insurance forces that are strongly organized as any group in the state.
