An expert experimenting on the 

 New Jersey marshes for the exter- 

 mination of the pest, writes: 



"This liniment 1 found to be excellent, fomuch 

 BO that I would not be without it. Previously I 

 had been using Citronella. but with poor results. 

 It has a pleasant smell, not so sticky as Citron- 

 ella, and keeps the 'pests' away from you."

 gentle bottom heat is given in August. 

 Dressed, I say, in a sleeveless Jersey, 

 most conducive to admiration of manly 

 beauty, he descants in glowing terms on 

 the merits of the Skinner system of ir- 

 rigation for indoor culture, the reason- 

 ableness of the boiler just purchased 

 and the individual drinking cups ranged 

 by the new shower before Governor 

 "Wilson advocated their use. 



THE MICHEIil. OUTING. 



The Henry F. Michell Co. gave its 

 employees and friends the first annual 

 outing and athletic meet on Saturday, 

 August 12. Four special trolley cars . 

 were engaged to convey the party to 

 the Evergreen Gardens, at Andalusia, 

 Pa., where the outing was held. Upon 

 arriving at the gardens the official 

 photographs were taken, after which 

 the entire party of over 200 marched 

 to the flag pole to take part in the 

 flag-raising, and with uncovered heads 

 sang the national anthem. 



Athletic contests were next on the 

 list. Young and old men and the ' 

 women took part. Much amusement,, 

 was afforded by the various races and"* 

 other contests. 'f 



To end the sports, a baseball game 

 was played by the representative ■ 

 teams of Henry A. Dreer and Henry F. 

 Michell. This was the most exciting 

 part of the day's program. The game 

 was nip and tuck up to the seventh 

 inning, when the Michell boys got in 

 their usual batting rally and scored 

 nine runs in one inning, making it a 

 walk-over of the easiest kind, the flnpJ 

 score being 19 to 2. The score by in- 

 nings was as follows: 



12345678 9— R H B 



Dreer OOOIOIOOO— 2 82 



Michell 10 10129B 0—19 21 1 



The umpires were Messrs. Both and 

 Bettz. 



After the game refreshments were 

 served on the lawn, and, needless to 

 say, everybody did justice to the 

 "eats." Then, to wind up the festivi- 

 ties, the young people enjoyed them- 

 selves at the dance, which was given 

 in the spacious new building which 

 will be used as a storehouse this fall. 

 At eight o'clock the outing was 

 brought to a close and all went home 

 extremely tired and well satisfied that 

 they had had the time of their lives. 



The Michell ball team has one open 

 date this seat on, which is September 4, 

 and would like to arrange a game with 

 one of the out-of-town seed houses, 

 preferably in New York or Boston, for 

 the inter-city seed championship.
