R elating to the problems of co­ operation in m arketing ihere-are a number of differences between cotton and tobacco, but the auction warehouse business in th e latter is so iuucli the biggest of these differ­ ences that the others m ay be put dowu as negligible. It is based on the fact that to­ bacco is greatly suojecled to ele­ m ental influence and cotton com­ paratively slightly. Cotton is cot tou. Its grades are few and well defined, and the grade iu which cotton belongs wlteu it leaves the gin-is_the grade in which it will re­ main until it goes into the, posses.es of Uiaii Ufacfifrfe.' Bales " o f cotton may lie out in the weather anv- v^here for m ouths, or years. That exposure does the fabric no good, but a short period of exposure to rain does little or no dam age, whereas tobacco must be liaudled carefully at all times, and leaf of a valuable grade m any indeed lose most of its value under shelter, by ["being neglected in dam p weather, uuless m eaus of coudititiouing are "used. Tobacco is a delicate pro­ duct, subject to num erous aud ex ­ treme vicissitudes; . doubtless the auction- warehouse business grew up uiaiuly. ou _that account. A t auv rate, it became a powerful in­ dustry and it has fought the co-op­ erative m ovem ent stubbornly, stuashiugly, resourcefully, at every step,,every day-, every hour. - The success-of the co-operative m arketing m ovem ent am ongst cot­ tou growers seem s to be fairly well established in this slate. It is a dem onstration that is bound to have som e effect in the way of morale^ stim ulation on the tobaccoco opera­ tives.

Sooner or later North CarolFna will be forced to recognize the.: fact that the prison camp system as it: now prevails m ust be overhauled in its entirely and possibly thrown a* way altogether. In its place the state must find a system which does not breed, as though designed for the very purpose, the barbarities which reach their perfect flower in the. Rockv Mount special camp but which exist, in one form or another; in other camps, Sooner or later that is going to be done It ought to be done now. The murderer of the negro ought to bfe enough to drive the state into action:" The plain testimony of. every un­ biased person with knowledge and intelligence who has investigated the system ought to have been enough. The disclosures which have come out of Gaston, despite their hurried covering up. ought to have been e ll: ough. Other disclosures in other years ought to have been enough. Tne common sense of the state ought to have been enough. The sheer" humanity of the people, a decent re- gard for human life and“a hatred of hhinaii suffering ought to have been "enough. That indefinable thing we call civic duty ought to have been enough. None of them has been enough, and all of them together have not been enough ItL is easily possible that we shall have to beat and flog aud bully and m utilate and in the end kill otbt r prisoners before the state awakes to the plain facts of tits situation. Those plain facts, put In their sim plest terms and omit­ ting m uch'that is im portant, are that the counties turn tbeirNprison- .ers over to men who- neither by na*; ture, fior training,; nor apti'tiidel fior inclination, nor knowledge have any real conception of the task com mi L ted. them. With exceptions the men are not qualified for lheir work and as they continue in it they be­ come inured to brutalities, coarsen­ ed and hardened by" suffering, aud indifferent to anrthing save the one object of driving the prisoners to their work- Worst of all, with such men in charge there is no real su­ pervision by trained and experienced penologists. Thesalaries are. small, the work is not such as to attract many men'nf ability, the seclusion in whhh the camps are conducted is aim 1st perfect, the equipment is fre­ quently inadequate and county of­ ficials and the public generally dti not care. Thus is the seed planted and thus com es the crop as North Carolina is forced to see it today. It is not a pleasant matter. It is not aireasy problem. Good citizens, men and and women, shun it. But for that very reason it tends to be­ come worse and worse until by some such sudden disclosure as that near Rocky Mount the state is forced to see what has been going on under cover.

There was a bad- auto and wagon wreck near Redland on the con­ crete highway Saturday night a- bout 12 o’clock. A wagon con­ taining Frank David Sm ith and ( fam ily, and Ed. Plott and fam ily and a son of W ill Lee, was going towards the river, when an E-iSex car crashed into the wagon, which was entirely off the hard-surfaee road. The car had met the wagon and then turned a'round and ran into the wagon ft;oin behind. Ten of the)occupants of the car were badly hurt, Mr. Plott and Mr. Frank Sm ith being in a serious condition. Steve Sm ith was ar­ rested and brought to M ocksville Sunday morning and put under a $1,000 bond. Sm ith admits that the car was his but said he IiacJ been robbed and the car taken by unknown parties. A bottle of whiskey was found in the car which was brought to M ocksville. W e had beeu wondering for soine tim e about our old friend Tom P. Jimisou, having heard- but little from him since lie made such a big m istake by trying to transport wet goods through such a supposedly d ry town as C harlotte/ But Tom has been heard from at last. H e ii bnsily engaged in studying law at W ake Forest and hopes to get his license this summer. W ell, if we don’t miss our guess Toui w ill make a good lawyer for he is a sensible fellow despite the fact that lie thought at one tim e that he could knock John Berlevcorn out of-the ring in a len-round bout. Tom is not going to hide his light under a bushel—he is going to be lieard from in the future. W ith this issue The Record com­ pletes its 26 th year. During all - this tim e the paper has done all in its power for the growth and de­ velopm ent of the town of M ocks­ ville, the couuty of Davie alid ^he • state of North Carolina. Thous- ’ ands of dollats worth of free space has beeu given to worthy causes and to help the mercliauts aud pro fessioual men of this section to a- Wass small fortunes. The present edito.r and owner has been a resi­ dent of the town for eighteen years and has managed to feed his fam­ ily, pay the preacher and the doct­ or and his other honest debts, but from a financial basis he could have made iiioreniouey in any other pro­ fession.

CHARACTERISTICS OF NON-LAYING CHICKEN AiiKust and Septem ber are th e best juonths in which to cull flocks. H ens t h a t Imve the characteristics of good juvers and that are laying in A ugust BEd September have been Invariably the best producers throughout the TC(Ir. In order to cull a flock prop­ erly it is necessary to handle each hen and put her through some tests JlicI1 !lS the following, suggested by G. A . S c h m i d t , Colorado A gricultural col- !e?e- . -One of the outstanding character^ isties of a non-laying hen of the yel­ low-skinned varieties is th e deep yel­ low color found on the shanks, on the lient around the vent, around the in­ ner edge of the eyelids and- on th e eJirs of the white-lobed varieties. IVlien tliese hens are laying, this yel­ low pigment is all needed to form the egi; yolk and none is deposited on the body, and consequently th e parts just enumerated are faded or w hitish In color. TJie pelvic or pin bones of non-lay­ ers are thick, curved in and close to- feilier. On laying hens they are tliln, straight, flexible and wide apart, three fingers’ breadths or more. M easure each lien for this distance betw een the pin hones when culling. When a hen is laying heavily her tody is deep, a condition brought on by the enlarged intestines and egg Bass. This depth of boay fs m eas­ ured from the pin bones to the-end of the keel and a good layer shows a depth of more than four finger Ireadtlis from the pin bones to the keel. Test each'hen for this depth. Xon-Iayers generally have a Arm, firawn-up, m eaty o r fleshy abdomen and (lifter from higfi producers much as a fat beef cow differs from a good ^f1Iry cow. Feel the abdom en of each len. The vent of a good laying hen Is large, open and moist, w hile th a t of a non-layer is small, closed, puckered and dry. Look a t the vent of each hen when you handle. The comb of the non-laying hen Is dry, pale, hard, and often covered w ith 6mall scales. On a laying hen It i9 red. soft and larger. Look a t th e combs and feel them. Coiftrary to popular opinion the early molting hen should be culled. U nder normal conditions, hens th a t m olt early are not very high producers. 'T h e early molter is m uch like the cow that goes dry three m onths too soon. Mark the hens th at start m olting first and get rid of them. At all tim es cull all sickly, inactive hens. Good layers are active healthy birds always looking f*r som ething to eat In careful culling all th e factors mentioned should be considered and only the best birds held over the win­ ter for breeding. If flocks a re care­ fully culled each year, and if the birds are given good care egg production can be considerably increased. Fattening Broilers in Crates Is Best Plan Best results in fattening broilers can only be reached by feeding them In confinement, and for this purpose spe­ cial fattening crates, or a t least a email brooder house or room, should be used. Groups of not over-50 birds to a house or six or eight to the crate should be used. A fter confining the birds, do not feed them for 24 hours, and then feed a m ash fwice a day In troughs and alt they -will eat In 30 minutes. No w ater should be neces­ sary, as the mash is to. ,be fed w e t A good and simple fattening ration would consist of 20 pounds of yellow com- meal, 10 pounds of w heat middlings or shorts, 10 pounds of fine ground oats and 10 gallons of butterm ilk. Mix the mash and m ilk the day before it is to be used and let it sour. M arket after ten days or two w eeks of this feeding. Toe-Picking Habit Will Develop in Crowded Pen T< e-picking among chicks is a p t to develop when the quarters of the birds are crowded or w hen there is not enough anim al protein In th e ration. The constant picking a t the toes final­ ly causes the blood to flow "and as this proves palatable It leads to cannibal­ ism. This is difficult to check and often causes serious loss. When this trouble is discovered both roomier quarters and m ore anim al Protein should be provided. The chicks with bleeding toes should be removed and kept separate until the toes are well healed. It is well to keep the chlfcks occu­ pied by hanging vegetables and bones "'Ith shreds of m eat attached by a string at a height w hich. w ill .cause them to jump In order to reach these products. . Market Cockerels Al! cockerels raised each season ex.- Wpt those selected to keep for breed- *** should be eaten, canned or m ar­ keted just as soon as they are large enough, if the chicks-; are' hatched early the cockerels should reach broil- *r size In June or July. C odierels *®vcd for breeders should be vigorous, VronS, active and alert, and' those that have grown m ost rapidly and are we best developed.

It is the pattern and color­ ing In beaded decorations that m ake the ^success of the gown and are most im portant. D esigners have lavished their exhaustless ingenuity on these decorative patterns and, inany beaded gowns still rem ain straight up-and- down affairs—backgrounds for "won­ derful beading. But In beaded gowns this season certain of the great designers decided to put less emphasis on beading and more on the construction of models In Jrder to Introduce the season's new tim es Is revealed In the apparel of those tim es and it Is their costuming that im presses periods of history on the minds of the young. Recently exhibitions have been given In the cities showing how effectively fine crepe and tissue paper can. be used for reproducing costum es of dif­ ferent periods and peoples. These ex­ hibitions w ere a revelation and showed that paper Is as adaptable as need be to these bygone costumes and can be used for frocks, wraps, headw ear and accessories and is fa r -less expensive than fabrics. Three little m aids pictured here re­ produce the costum es of colonial days and periods a little later.

The side panels, front or back fullness, godets, yokes and varied' necklines that- are characteristic, of the season find them ­ selves dlvl’dlng Interest w ith beaded patterns In these new gowns. Just how gracefully they have been man­ aged m ay be gathered from the two models shown here from Lanvin. A t the left a dress of pale-rose crepe is em broidered with rose-colored beads and provided w ith a girdle embroidered in a ’ floral pattern. The yoke with, round neckline 'finished like the girdle and extended Into short sleeves Is of the plain crepe. In the gown a t the right of orchid erepe, the new low “V” shaped neck­ line, back and front, is introduced, and a pointed front drapery of plain skirt with panniere drapery and elbow sleeves In a short bodice w ith “V” shaped front opening recall the cheer- ■ful modes of Lady W ashington’s day. Any color In fine crepe paper, with black tissue for the ribbon bands across the front of the bodice, may be used for this dress. Crepe paper-m akes the rose th at is posed on the panniere and the large cap. The quaint dress w ith short sleeves and Uttle cape shown in the center of the group Is very prim looking, w ith little flat bows of silky paper set down the front and ruffles of it about the skirt. The de­ m ure poke bonnet is also made of pa­ per. F or the sprightly dress at the left printed crepe paper is- used, with ruffles and sash of plain crepe paper.

The bodice is entirely covered with the bead em­ broidery, but the bottom of the skirt, is left plain to form a border, and a narrow border design finishes the neckline. M any of the season’s beaded models are in one-color designs, the beads in shades of the color used In the gown. Sometimes- crystal beads are used w ith the colored beads on light-colored crepes and outline rather than, solid patterns are chosen. This outlining w ith beads, is a feature of printed georgette or chiffon frocks for afternoon and evening w ear and has been very effectively Introduced in them. Every once In a w hile the young­ er generation breaks out w ith a de­ sire for a fancy dress party—and b o do their elders for that m atter. The annual charity balls alw ays find plenty of people eager to take part, clad In the quaint or splendid- - costum es of vanished centuries. T here is some­ thing very fascinating In this' revival of days gone b y —and it Is a thing to b e encouraged. T he sp irit of other net Is also of paper. A thirst for knowledge rarely ' Impels young people to the study of apparel" of the past, but a fancy dress party w ill make them keen about i t By way of furthering the study of costume another use for crepe paper is found in the dressing of character dolls. Indian villages are reproduced In the recent exhibitions given show­ ing m iniature w arrlers, squaws medicine men, papooses fashioned of paper and wire, among teepees and trees m ade in the sam e way. W ater- color paints and colored sealing wax help out In decorations and the work of m aking the figures proves fascinat­ ing to boys and girls.

I didn’t w ant to go until I w as sure everything Iiad been taken care of.” “I told you that I would do it, didn’t I?’’ “Yes—of course.” “Then, that should have been the end of it.” “You’ve taken care of everything?” “Certainly." “Will—will there be the necessity for an inquest?” “An inquest?” The attorney looked at him sharply. “For w hat?" “I—I didn’t know. I alw ays thought it was necessary to have an inquest when a person died w ithout medical attention." “ You’re crazy.” Tlie attorney said it in a jerky, unsym pathetic manner. “Everybody knows w hat was wrong with your father. It’s ail fixed up. Looked after it personally. Hoffman, the undertaker, has got everything ar­ ranged. Isn’t anybody you w ant to send for?” “No”— B art Rogers shook his head —“there's no one who would be inter­ ested." “W hat I thought Any other reason for delay?” “Oni—on the funeral? I don’t know of any.” “I figured it th’at way. Told Hoffman that we’d better have the funeral to­ morrow afternoon. On account of this boom thing! ' This town’s gone crazy— and it’ll get worse every minute.” B art nodded in dazed fashion. Leon B arrow s shuffled a few papers of one of the orderly piles. “Very well, then,” cam e his conclu­ sion. “Glad you look at it in Qiat way. Thought you’d be sensible; that’s why I told Hoffman' to go ahead. I’ve gotten you a room over a t the hotel. No. 21. H ere’3 the key. Go over there and go to bed.” B art Rogers rose and stared hazily about him. “Thanks—for looking after things for me. It’s rather taken me off my fe e t I—’’ “Go on to bed!” The law yer nodded curtly tow ard . the door In dismissal, and B art Rogers obeyed. A moment later he found him self on the ctowded sidewalk. There w as noise, there was bluster, the laughter of women and girls min­ gled with the shouts of men. Every-- where was the enthusiasm of n ew - found wealth, as though every person w ere to share in It, and as though each one of those who crowded the streets in this outburst of joy were a part owner in that. great outpouring of liquid -gold that w as spraying against the starlit sky out there on the black­ ness o f the plains. It w as through this milling, jumbled throng that B art Rogers, his eyes set and staring, his lips tight drawn, his features old and haggard, was forded to make his way to the hoteL That he should have been a part of it, he felt instinctively—yet- it w as all strange to him, all out of place, and, In a way, cruel. For B art Rogers could only think of the patient person who had Waited silently by the window day after day, who had undergone suf­ fering, even privation that he "might play his part—only to lose In the end. At last, however, he halted, at a touch on his arm, and looked down into the features of A nita Franniston,'followed 'V. as usual, by the dog-like, gray-haired Old JIin. ‘T m so sorry,” came quietly, and her band still rem ained on his arm. “You know, then?” “Yes. I w as over In the new spaper office. They’re trying to get out an extra about the oil strike, and I hap­ pened to see in the proofs the story about your father.” B art Rogers stared w ordlessly at the sidewalk. There was no way In which he could ' answ er h e r; he could not find the words to thank her or to recount again the agony of his discovery in the little cabin that evening. Once more he felt the slight pressure of her hand upon his arm , then, instinctively, he knew that she had gone on, content that he would know, In that silent demon­ stration, of her sym pathy and her sor­ row. Yet withal, he wondered if she had stopped; vaguely, uncertainly, he felt that someone was looking at him, looking steadily and fixedly. He raised his head and turned—to stare with something of surprise. The girl was lost In the blur of the crowd. But Old Jim had remained, to stand halting and undeterm ined as though some­ thing were on his lips, something he repressed only" through the force of his will-power. B ut a t B art’s first glance, he, too, turned and hurried on in the w ake of his m istress. Three hours later— By his window In the darkness of his room, B art Rogers sat watching, yet seeing nothing. Alone, his brain had begun to form pictures—of a man THE DAVIE RECORD, MOCKSVILLE, N. C, “I— I C an't Take the Chance.” who had sloshed shoulder deep through the sw ift w ater of an irriga­ tion ditch, too excited to -even feel the sw ift touch of the water. H e saw the picture of a m an light­ ing a lam p—and lighting it In a trem ­ bling m anner which belied the casual words of his lips—a m an who, a mo­ m ent later, w as to be sobbing a t his father’s side. H e felt again the cold touch of the hands, and of the cheek, the pang of realization as he bent to the quiet breast, the horrible clutch­ ing anguish, as, a shadow In the night, he staggered tow ard town w ith the news that— H e' turned quickly, w ith the dazed nervousness of % person aw akened from a bad dream. H e w aited, tense, motionless. Then it came again—a slight, alm ost im perceptible tapping at the door. “Who’s th ere?’ ‘ The answ er did not come In words— only In a repetition of that clicking, nervous tap, as though some one were rapping w ith their fingers, trusting to the sharp, telegraphic clack of the nails to carry the sound. Rogers stum ­ bled through the sem i-darkness tow ard the door and opened it, to instinctively stand aside as a bent, gray-haired fig­ ure slid from the faint . light of the narrow hall into the shadows of the room. “W hat is it?” Vaguely B art Rogers had identified the shadowy visitor as Old Jim. “Could—could I trust you, if I talked to you a little while?” The voice' seemed tense, almost frightened. “Tell me w hat it is!” Rogers ejacu­ lated. A t last came the w ords: “M ind if we sit down?” “N ot a t all.” B art brought two chairs tow ard the window. Jim halted his a t a safe distance. “That’s better,” he whispered. “No­ body can see us from the street here.” He seated'him self, and his thin hands knitted. At last; “You own the land right next to where they’ve brought in this oil?” “Yes.” ' “It’ll be w orth a lot of money—if you’d w ant to sell out.” “It should—that is, if. the oil keeps up.” Old JIm laid a hand on his arm. “Boy," came In a lows voice, “I want to tell you something. I can’t tell any­ body. I’m ”— then there w as a long siience—“I’m putting m yself a t yout mercy, in a way, in even coming to see yoii tonight. If he’d ever find it put— “You mean ‘Bull’?” -Yes.” “You mean—” “You met us on the road one night," cam e cryptically. Rogers recoiled In horror. , “H e would beat her? Again?” He rose and paced the room, at last to halt beside the older m an’s chair. “Good God, m an! you don’t stand for that? Haven’t you an ounce of red blood In your veins? Haven’t you—” But the thin hands spread hope­ lessly. “I—I can’t do anything. T here are reasons why I can’t, i—I’ve ju st got to stand and look/on. T hat’s why he takes such a delight In i t ; because he knows that I’m suffering. T hat’s why I—” “There’s the one w ay out—and you’d have a right to do I t !” B art Rogers spoke slowly, coldly. “No man has a right ,to beat a woman—much less a girl. -Understand that? And there isn’t a jury In the world—” H e paused then; The faint light from the street reflected the gleam In Old Jim ’s eyes, as the older m an half­ rose, his hands extended, his lips work­ ing convulsively, his features fraught with excitement, with hope— then sud­ denly with fear as he sank into-the chair again and stared dully into vacancy. “No,” cam e hopelessly. “I've thought of it. I—I guess I’ve thought of It more tonight than ever before in my life. But I can’t do it. I might only wound him—and then it’d be worse than ever. I—I can’t take the chance. My hand wouldn’t be steady. I—I’d miss. Then he’d get a greater re­ venge than ever. He’d ruin her Ufa— and yotirs!’ “Mine? Ruin my life?" “You care about her, don’t you? Fve seen it, boy.” Old Jlm rose now. “I saw it in your eyes this afternoon— I saw it there tonight. T hat's w hat made me comet here. I w ant to get your promise." “Then his voice trailed away. “My promise? To w hat?” answ ered Bart. “That—that you’ll m arry Anita.’“I?” “Y es!” Old Jim had caught him by the arm s now, and w as holding in a grip that was alm ost spasmodic in its intensity. “You care' about her—I know you do. I w ant you to m arry her. You’ll have money—plenty of it. You can go away—to New York, or maybe across the w ater—some place where h e' couldn’t get his hands on her and torture her and tear the heart out of m e! I’ll help you—I give you my word that I’ll help y o u ! Tll pre­ tend. to hate you, I’ll let him think that it will be a living agony to me to see her m arried to y ou! Then he’ll consent to it—because he will think it will hurt me. B art—” the m an’s finger nails were digging deep Into the tight-clasped arm s now—“i’ll do any­ thing in the world for you if you’ll only prom ise! I’ll craw l on my knees to you, I’ll—” “B ut why—why should you think that she would m arry me? T hat she even thinks of me other than to be grateful for that night on the road? W hy—” “Maybe she doesn’t, but I’ll help. Fll talk you up to her—I know she likes you better ,than anyone else. And I’ll try to m ake her love you.” Then he stopped. B art Rogers w aited long for him to continue, but no w ords came. The clutch a t the younger m an’s arm s released slowly. Then the old m an turned despondently away. “I—I guess Fve been a fool,” came at last. “Ju st forget I’ve ever been here.” “I can’t do that, Jim .” B art Rogers was following him to the door. - “B ut I’m afraid you’ve asked some impos­ sibilities. In the first place, a. girl ’doesn’t m arry a m an unless she really loves him. • Then she m arries without lnflueice from anyone. If that time ever comes, you’ll find me w aiting for Anita, and if she’s willing to go with me, it'll be w hether I have money or not, and in spite of w hat ‘Bull’ Fran­ niston or anybody else has to. say or think about it. I’ll—’’ “Don’t! ” The' appeal had come In a w hisper that was alm ost frantic. “Don’t—please—please, for God’s sake, don’t !” H e looked about him hur­ riedly. “That can’t be, R ogers! Un­ derstand—it can’t be! You can’t take her that way—you m ustn’t— hear that? You m ustn’t! You’ve got to promise me that before I leave this room !” B art Rogers smiled mirthlessly. “We’re discussing a good many things that may never happen. But, If It’ll help you any, Jim —I’ll promise.” Then Old Jim left. And through the night, as B art sat by the window, alone in his grief, there were moments when, in spite of his sorrow, his mind reverted to the visit o f'th e shadowy Old Jim , and his strange, mysterious request. hogging Down Soy Beans Is Favored M e e tin g a H e a r ty R e c e p tio n b y T h o s e W h o H a v e G iv e n T h e m T r ia l. The Iowa A gricultural Experim ent association, Ames, Iowa, has soy beans In sm all lots for trial purposes by grow ers interested. It is a well recognized fact th at soy beans particularly suited for one pur-; pose such as seed production or hog­ ging down m ay not be so w ell adapted to growing for hay o r In corn for sil­ age in th at particular locality. The practice of growing soy beans In corn for hogging down has m et a very hearty reception by ithe m ajority of those who have given them a trial. Pure Beans for Seed. O ther grow ers are particularly in­ terested in having good pure beans to try for seed production purposes. The association has a few one-bushel lots of hand-picked M ancliu soy beans, which they propose to let grow ers have who w ant to get a start of .pure M anchu heans to try for seed produc­ tion. The M anchu lots, either for seed or for hogging down, together with, bag and inoculating m aterial, will be supplied for a fee of $3. Peking soy beans are a later, some­ w hat ranker --ow ing variety. They stand up well, m aking them quite suit­ able for silage purposes. One-buihel lots of these are available for that purpose. Soy beans have also been grown for hay the past few seasons. Peking soy le a n s lend them selves readily to that purpose. A few one-bushel lots of the Peking will be supplied for this pur­ pose to those wishing to give them a trial. A fee of $4 m ust necessarily accompany, the application for a bushel of Peking soy beaps. This covers the cost of the beans, bag, and Inoculation m aterial. Dunfield Is New Variety. Thg Dunfleld soy bean is a new va­ riety of soy beans, giving mucli prom ise as a seed producer and a profitable bean for hogging down In southern Iowa. The seed supply is very lim­ ited, and will be sent to grow ers In two-pound lots so long as the supply lasts. A fee of 50 cents should accom­ pany the application to cover cost of seed, bag, inoculation m aterial - and postage. AU questions or applications, for any of the different • lots of soy beans should be sent to the Iowa Ag­ ricultural Experim ent association, Ames, Iowa. C u c u m b e r B e e tle s C a u se T r o u b le in H o m e G a r d e n ■ Among the most -troublesome Insects I that we have In the home garden are the cucum ber beetles, both the striped and the spotted types. The adult beetles are usually w aiting for the i j’oung “cuke” or melon plants to come" through the ground, and in 24 hours the prospective crop is ruined. For I years Investigators have been trying to find a really effective method of con­ trolling these pests, but w ith only par­ tial success. AU sorts of evil-smelling I substances, such as turpentine,, tobac­ co, and cam phor balls have been used . to “chase” the beetles, and poisons .such ; as arsenate of lead and paris green ! have been added also. Protectors for I the young plants used -to be commonly utiUzed but have apparently not been so popular in late years. The most recent control m aterial used for cucum ber beetles, and appar- j ently the most effective to date, has I been a 2 per cent nicotine dust, ap- , pUed near m idday In clear, quiet, sunny w eather. Even this m aterial I has not been_ entirely satisfactory, - many cucum ber grow ers complaining that although the dust did kill m any beetles and drove the resL aw ay tem ­ porarily, they were back In “droves” w ithin a day or two. Others, how­ ever, have had good results w ith the nicotine dust. Still the m ystery grows. Why is Old Jim so w rought up over B art and A nita and their love affair?

Much of this Is coarse stem m y hay which is ground for alfalfa meal or goes into the South for horses and mules In the cotton section. A ccurate knowledge on the p art of the shipper, of grades and receipts, will enable him to sell his high-class hay at a good m argin above average prices.

T here can be some saving In labor if the corn binder is started, say, th e evening before cut­ ting and is V ept going before filling starts In the morning. In this way one m ay possibly cut down enough corn and release the m an on the binder to work w ith the machine. W ith a sm all cutter it is usually suf­ ficient to have one man In th e silo, one m an to operate the engine and cutter, three men and team s to haul the corn, w ith possibly tw o m en loading In the field. The num ber of team s and men will depend to some extent upon the distance the corn is to be hauled. It m ay also be necessary to keep one m an operating th e binder or cutting the dbrn In another m anner.

T he ripening grain, he explains, draw s an enorm ous am ount of w ater from the soil, thus fam ishing the feeble young alfalfa plants.

Not only m ay a satisfactory qual- ] Ity of grain hay be secured a t this tim e, but the crowding effect on the alfalfa seeding is removed and the alfalfa is given the opportunity to de­ velop properly. The main object in planting the grain is to secure a successful alfalfa stand; one should take no c h a n c e sorf losing his investm ent In inoculation, seed, and labor, through losing sight of this fact. It is m ighty poor.economy to try to use the oats or barley as a grain crop as w ell as a nurse crop.

AUEL, President, National Safety Council. New York.—The world has become mechanical— man power and horse power (except as a unit of m easure­ m ent) are falling into desuetude "H arnessing N iagara” w as an achieve­ ment, conveying its force to great distances was an accomplishment, but to make N iagara freeze Itself into lit­ tle cubes In the m illionaire's kitchen, brown the buckwheat cakes on the forem an's breakfast table and drive ; the sew ing m achine In the third floor , back, transcends any of Aladdin’s I m ythical efforts. Not content with j harnessing m ere coal deposits and riv- I ers. man harnessed the oil fields, and . with w hat result?—the development of cheap and light m echanical motive ! pow er enabling him to flivver the sea, fliw er the air, and flivver the surface 6f the land. See also w hat the gas engine Is doing for the farm s—the last stronghold of horse power. F irst Into our Industrial life, next into our pub­ lic life and finally into our home life have crept the manifold applications of power to daily needs. Pow er Takes Toil. But, because power is the applica­ tion of the m echanical forces which the- human body cannot w ithstand, pow er has taken and continues to take its toll of life and limb. The path of Its application to man's needs Is tracked with blood—first in the indus­ tries some of which a decade ago were called “slaughter houses.” today upon th e streets w here every m an’s life is In jeopardy—perhaps tom orrow with­ in our home. Its latest field of con­ quest. N ature’s own efforts to protect the individual of the species from the dan­ gers of his environm ent are m arvel­ ous but they are 'inexorably slow. H um an efforts at protection will al­ ways lag fa r behind the Inception and even the conception of the hazard. It seems th at an Incredible num ber of hum an beings m ust be killed or in­ jured before the public conscience Is aroused. It is true that the m ajority of those Industrial establishm ents which were term ed “slaughter houses” have at last become safe places 'n which to work, but yet the automobile has been allowed to take the toll of 100,000 lives In this country alone. N otw ithstanding our recognition of w bat is going om the annual increase in autom obile deaths has not been ar­ rested. It is our hum an falling not 'o foresee these evils and our hum an w eakness to close our eyeS to their appalling growth until we aw ake to find, In their elm ination, a huge na­ tional problem. 1 S treets Now D anger Point. th e center of gravity of accidental deaths In the United States w as prob­ ably a t one tim e situated In the Indus­ tries, but since the inception of the safety movement it has been slowly Mints Busy Turning Out "Double Eagles” Philadelphia. — T he standard coin of the old W est is coming back into its own, according to reports from the United States m int here, as well as those in San Francisco and Denver. AU three m ints have been specialis­ ing In the coining of “double eagles.” The Philadelphia m int is turning out 30,000 of the $20 gold coins daily, which estab­ lishes a new record for any one plant.

It is following the advance of power, but whether, as we develop public protective m easures and there­ by diminish public accidents, it will transfer itself to our homes, rem ains to be seen—for today it is sufficient to realize that the focus of the dis­ order has moved into the public life of the coipmunlty. T he only new thing about the safe­ ty movement in our day is that It Is a movement and not an institution or an Instinct and that is wholly because of the abnorm ally rapid development of modern life. If life would slow down as it did in prehistoric times safety w ould be a fam ily m atter; it would be p art of the fam ily discipline, like not eating w ith one’s knife or not lying in bed in the morning, both un­ doubtedly prehistoric vices. BRITISH TRY TO SAVE OLD SMITHY A u t o a n d T r a c t o r E l i m i n a t e A n v i l W o r k e r . H ertford, England.—Strenuous efforts are being m ade here and In other agricultural districts of EMgland to save the picturesque old-fasbloned vil­ lage blacksm ith from papslng into oblivion. The sm ith of Ehtgland today is not "toiling and rejoicing” to draw undue attention to hlmsplf, but Is “sorrow­ ing” a great deal more than in the days when Longfellotv idealized him— all because of the advent of the auto­ mobile and the m otor tractor. In their desire to "save” the village blacksmith the H ertfordshire county council members announced recently particulars of a plan designed to keep alive the decaying industry which has been so hard hit by the modern o r­ ganization of the big m anufacturers and their agents who supply standard­ ized parts of farm Implements and machinery on lines of m ass production. The m inistry of agriculture, too. has become Interested In the scheme to prevent the passing of the blacksm ith and has agreed to co-operate in the movement. Special committees appointed to In­ vestigate the plight of the sm ithy have reported that there are m any articles in popular demand which cannot be satisfactorily produced by factory methods because of the skill and the handiwork of the craftsm an which should count more than m ere cheap­ ness. W ith a view to giving the village blacksm ith a new lease on life, a spe­ cial exhibit w as arranged for the recent H erts agricultural show, where prizes were aw arded for agricultural Implements, wrought Iron gates, scroll work, door fittings, general utility wares, such as w eather vanes and um­ brella and golf stands. F. W. Spealgbt, director of the ex­ hibit, has also proposed various other schemes designed to prevent the garage from replacing the blacksm ith shop and silencing the ring of the anvil forever. L a y s E g g I n s i d e E g g Cape May, N. J.—Cape M ay bens have lined up on an economy program and are conserving space by laying one egg w ithin another.

Tenement Army of W all Street United <s~ Clubhouse Lnd Playground Provided by Corporations. New York.—W all street with its skyscrapers houses an office population of 800,000 by day and is held by a tenem ent garrison of 10,000 by night. W all street is the sole livelihood of this skeleton force of nightfolk. In discharge of a sense of obligation It has quietly fostered an Interesting piece of citizenship work the last ten years. The m ajor result of the work, lead­ ers say, has been to convert the dis­ trict from New York’s most polyglot belt, w ith 1,400 fam ilies representing 23 nationalities, into probably Its most closely knit, m ost homogeneous com­ munity. Financed by 1,000 Corporations. I ! The work is financed by 1,000 cor­ porations, firms and Individuals under the nam e of the Bowling Green Neigh­ borhood associations. The activity Is expressed, for ex­ ample, In term s of a model four-story dwelllnghouse on W est street for head­ quarters; a $500,000 playground cover­ ing nine city lots on the river fro n t; 25 flourishing orchestras'and clubs for young people; nine social and political clubs and lodges for adults; educa­ tional classes, health clinics and com­ m unity services In general which the association operates either singly or In conjunction with uptown agencies. Irish pioneers, later Joined by Aus- trians, Syrians and Greeks, head the census In downtown M anhattan, which also includes Slavs, Turks. Armenians, Serbs, Rum anians1-Scandinavians and other nationalities seemingly too di­ verse ever to bring together. Yet racial dem arcations, socially consid­ ered, are disappearing, association heads assert. Common Employment H as Helped. Common employment has helped to­ w ard this coalescence. W all street buildings like the Equitable. Em pire and tbe various banks carry on tbelr payrolls for cleaning and other work some 3,731 women and 2,651. men of the neighborhood. They work spilt tricks a t the start and the end of the night, as a rule, and often double In restaurants at noon. Annual earnings for fam ilies In the district, w ith both parents working, average'$1,600 each, according to Paul Franklin, executive director of the association. Group activities and the second gen­ eration of children have been the prin­ cipal factors In the “get-together” phenomenon presented by the commu­ nity, it was said.

T h e R obesonian of L um berton gives an angle to th e m atter of county loans to th e S tate H ighw ay Commission th a t is of special in­ terest perhaps to Davidson and D avie couties. T he L um berton paper points out t t a ' the erection of tw o river bridges in the east w ith m oney to be loaned by coun­ ties interested will not be effected because these were provided for through special legislative enact m ent. A pparently th e sam e situation exists in regard to the proposed bridge over the Y akdin between Davidson and D avie counties, w hch certainly is provided for by special legislative enactm ent. T he bill regard to this provides specifi cally that the two couniies m ay lend the S tale H ighw ay Com mis­ sion not over $200,000 for the erec­ tion of this bridge, each county to- share iu the loan in proportion to th e num ber of its polls. It is also set forth id this special legislative enactm ent. T he bill in mission w ill repay this m oney to the coun­ ties m aking the loan. T he D ispatch would suggest that if Davidson and Davie, counties are sufficiently interested in the pro­ ject th ey m ig h t take steps to get an opinion from C hairn an, F rauk P age as to the attitude of the State H ighw ay Commission and from A t­ torney G eneral B rum m itt as to the legal status of this project. It may develop th at thefgeneral question of loans froth counties to the Slate does not effect tlie Davidson Davie project after all. ■ H ere isth e v ie w p o in t taken by T he Robesonian, published in G >v- ernor M cLean’s hom e town: “ A ttorney G eneral lirum m itt has stated that his directiou in regard to the validity of contracts hi tween the S tate H ighw ay commission aud counties w hereby counties have is­ sued bonds for roads construction and loaned the m oney to the State, th e m oney to be repaid out of fu­ tu re S late boud issues for roads, w ill not have any effect ou such special loans as th at for the -bride over Cape F ear at W ilm ington or th e one for the Chowan river, -bridge, as these w ere'authorized by legislative euactm ent. T hat gives strength to the opiuion. th at Robe­ son county can go ahead w ith its proposed boud issue for paving toads under contracts w ith the S tate H ighw ay commission for the n o n ey -to b e repaid out of f u tu e S .ate bonds issues, for tli-t also was authorized by special legislative enactm ent.—T he. Dispatch. The Preachers Pay. Rev. J. F . A pple, form er pastor of L ong’s chapel C hristian church, {vicinity of B urlington, brought •suit in the local courts in th e later -tow n against tw o deacons of the church and the' president of the N orth C arolina C hristian C onfer­ ence for salary due him as postor. T h e court proceedings were opened w ith prayer by one one th e de­ fendants and there was an urge th at the case lie com prom ised, but tlie com prom ise failed, although it appeared th a t the prosecuting preacher w as w illing to agre to a settlem ent out of court. T he pro­ ceedings w ere also close w ith pray­ er, but it seem s th at w hile prayer was plentiful it didn’t pay the la­ borer his hire— d id n 't settle the debt. T h e case caj throw n out of court below on a technicality', but an w as noted. Counsel for t.ie -defenelents de clared that this was the first case of it kind in this part of the com - try., M aybe, but one of the sam e kind has been threatened in Iredell. A form er postor of. a congregation in this county alleges th at the con­ gregation has failed and refused to pay and he has contem plated legal action. O f course they will criti­ cise the preacher for asking the civil autlioiity to collect his hire. B ut sym pathy here is w ith the preacher, w ithout reference to any particular case. If a congregation fails to pay the preacher as pro inised he should show them up for w hat they are. TIie preacher has Io live. H e has a hard lim e liv­ ing on w hat he gets at best. A nd when a congregation deliberalely and wiifu Iy refu-.es and fails to pay him his litre, the w oild should know the type coiiu.osiu^ lliat con- 'regauoti.

W e carried back to the farms a great volume of things that the farmer gets in exchange for his products. This is a big part of the day’s work of our 8,000 miles of lines, stretching across the South from the Potomac to the , Mississippi. Faim prosperity means prosperity for us. To give the best service, at rates which will enable our shippers to sell their products in the markets at a good profit, and which will enable us to make a fair profit, too, is a fundamental policy of the SouthemRailwaySystem. Did you ever stop to think how much better service the- Southern has given you in recent years since it was reliev­ ed from financial starvation? That is part of your share in our prosperity.

Every one seeuis to prefer p.iper m oney and those who take it evidently are w illing to run the risk of getting germ s along with it. T here was a fam ine of one dol­ lar bill recently. T h ed em an d for them was so great that the bureau of engraving the printing could not keep up with it, and this led to toe effort to put the silver dollar back into circulation. T he one dollar bills seem to deterioriate faster than they used to. E very purchase of gasoline at a filling station or garage seem s to involve,, ope or more one dollar bill-; and the contact of grease and gas deterio rates the bills so rapidly th at they do not ordinarily at this late date live out their allotted eight m onths of 'time.

Advice is cheap and easily handed out The fellows who sit back in their editorial chairs and advise the farm er w hat to.do are receiving po­ lite rebuke at the hands of Mr. Jar dine, the d irt farm er now presiding as Secretary of A griculture, in an article contributed to N ation’s Bus- mess. Likewise. Mr. Jardine extends nis rem arks to the city business man HiVery well-intentioned individual, but one who makes the common inistakeof the editors, because he 110 more understands the need of the farm er tliijn does the city editor. Secretary Japiine recounts s- tne of Lh^ m istakes of the city husim ss iiian in undertaking to "help” the farm er and. lie argues against the giving of advice in general—for. he m aintains, the farm er "know s , his business ” He is also “ a business m a n ” No one, says Mr. Jardine. needs to tell the farm er what to do" H e lias his little likings for advice, and rightly so. W hat he w ants is an equal chance to carry on his bus­ iness as otberbusiness is carried on He will wejeoine co-operation from others, ju st as any good business, man will, but he will insist on run­ ning his own business. For instance, if farm ers generally decide that co operative m arketing is the best practice for them , they will carry out their plans regardless of any op­ position that may arise from other elemencs Jn the popuiat.ton. Any individual or any group that tries to stem the tide of agricultural progres is certain to suffer for bis rashness. Farm ing is the oldest big industry we have, and the farm er knows his business from centuries of exper ience. Secretary Jardine is confident that far-sighted businessm en in the cities and the towns are going to come to a greater and greater realization of the irhportaiice of these facts and will co-operate with the farm er in carrying out the practices which he finds are neeWsary to the success of his business.

Lapp, ot the#Io\va Agrl- tiiliiiral college, In a circular gives the {olii-ujng description of the ordinary (•,,iiimercial egg grades: Kxtras-TIiese are eggs weighing from 24 to 28 ounces to the dozenand (re uniform in size and fairly uniform iii .-Mipe and color. They must be free from lient or germ development. The n!r rt’li must not be larger than the size of a dime. Firsis-Tliese are eggs weighing from 22 io 24 ounces to the dozen, uniform In size, and fairly uniform In shape ami color. They must be free from liMit. with an air cell not much larger th;in that of an extra. The shell must «<>uml and clean. Sotirods—1These are made up of light staSi;s and dirties, heated and stale fgcs. iilso small eggs or any others not classified above but edible. Checks—These are slightly broken et'gs. Crscks-1These are generally classed v.lih checks. * Lciiiiers—Leakers are broken eggs where the liquid is escaping. Ilejects—These are the eggs unfit Xor food. ’ In securing eggs that will class as “e.tiriis"' or “firsts,” Professor Lapp suggests that the following points be Bspt In mind: 1. Take pride In the eggs you selL 2. Keep a flock of good standard treu stoc-k. Hatch only iarge, • select eggs- .S. Keep nests clean and plenty ot llieni. 4. Do not keep eggs in a place above 60 degrees temperature. 5. Keep litter in house clean. 6. Separate males from floek as >non as hatching season is over. 7. Do not market small, inferior sggs. Use them at home. 8. Do not wash dirty eggs If they nre intended for market. 9. Keep eggs covered when taking them to market. 10. An egg is generally good qual­ ity when it is produced. Don’t help to deteriorate the quality. Market eggs often. One difficulty In the way of the I*wa fanner in working for higher grades on eggs is that In a great many cases higher grades are not rewarded by pro- !■ortionately higher prices, due to the UMiiSCTiminating attitude of some local buyers. The co-operative egg, selling associations of Minnesota . and Mis­ souri have found that the quality of the eggs handled goes up very prompt­ ly after the returns for the first lots have been received. As soon as farm­ ers are sure that they are going to get pfemiums for their high quality, their percentage of "extras” and “firsts” gees up markedly. Necessaiy to Have Eggs Clean in Fowls’ Nests It is necessary to have the eggs (lean In the nests, because washing f-ggs takes time and also removes the Mtural bloom. One common cause of Slrty eggs is the habit of pullets roost­ ing in the nests. This can soon be broken up by going through the houses Just after roosting time and removing such birds to the roosts. Spending a few minutes in. the houses just at sun­ down to frighten the pullets from the nests will teach Vhem to select another roosting place themselves. Then they are most apt to go back to the resu­ l t roosts each night. ' Walking on dirty dropping boards Is .'mother cause of dirty eggs. Some poultrymen nail strips of two-inch iuesh wire under ea£h roosting sec­ tion. This permits the droppings to fall through to the boards but keeps the hens from walking on the boards. They have to hop from perch to perch and then down into the litter and will have cleaner feet when going on the bests in the morning. The mesh of the wire may be fine enough to catch tny eggs laid during the night and save them froth breaking. *.*^* v *> •!* **. *1* 'I* »;• *J*»;«*J* >J. *5* •*» »I‘*** 1J. *J* *2* •$* 1JmS*^ Poultry Facts • Provide plenty of oyster shell in ad- cition to grit.

TN THE realm of colorful and daring fabrics and exotic styles negligees are pioneers; for women have always allowed themselves freedom of choice In these witliln-doors garments. A little journey In the shops reveals greater extrem es, then ever In brilr Uance of colors, variety of styles and fabrics—and sources of Inspiration In design. T he(boldest and most splendid patterns In printed silks have been ap­ propriated for negligees and It takes a second look sometimes to determine whether a gorgeous garment is a neg­ ligee or an opera coat. In nearly all’ negligees of-printed silk—whatever the style—It is note­ worthy that a’ .plain silk is used In and also. In silk-and-cotton mixtures. It Is glorious midsummer, vaca­ tions are here and all the younger generation asks Is to be let alone, to do as It pleases for a while. After mbnths spent In school it pleasts to explore the big outdoors, In a kindly world full of waters and woods and Inexhaustible fascinations. In the country parents have only to get their youngsferB into sturdy clothes, provide a substantial lunch', and turn them loose—under the eye of some one who will steer them homeward toward nightfall. City dwellers are looking up summer camps where younger city dwellers may sojourn, as every child Is entitled to, In the country.

This is because of the growing nationalistic feeling among Italians which makes transla­ tion of all foreign proper names Into Italian a corollary of patriotism. No nation or language is excepted.

In coat-like types figured and plain silks are used in equal propor­ tions, in garments much, more effective than they could be without the intro­ duction of the plain color. Just at present brilliant' figured silks combined with black silk are favored. The pretty and conservative neg­ ligee shown here—of plain and figured summer camps for boys and girls are growing In popularity all the time— they do wonders for the young people and at the same time provide a respite from responsibility for parents who may want to do a little vacation­ ing on their own' account. Equipping the young girl for a real, summer outing; whether in n girl’s camp or for a visit In the country. Is a fairly simple matter. She will wear knickers and blouses, substantial shoes and stockings, a soft hat of felt or fabric or straw, and the simplest of underwear. Her knickers are usually made of very heavy cotton or strong linen fabrics or they may be of tweed or homespun.

Ervln ta the prison bribery case of the govern­ ment against L. J. Fletcher, former deputy warden at the Atlanta federal prison, and Father Thomas P. Hay­ den ;ex-chaplain, when the federal court jury reported its inability to rcach an agreement after being in cession for twenty - four hours and fifteen minutes. The vote of the Jury on every 'oal- Iot was eight for acquittal and four tor conviction, according to Albert M. Shomo1 foreman of the Jury. In his charge to the jury, Judge Ervin explained that 'both defendants must be found guilty or acquitted, e: 'see it is impossible for one to be guilty and the other not guilty on a conspiracy charge. ‘'One man cannot conspire with him­ self,” the judge told the jury. Mr. Fletcher and Father Hayden were charged with conspiracy to ac­ cept twenty-five hundred dollars each from Mannie Kessler and Morns iSweetwood, wealthy inmates of the penitentiary, in return for which lb* convicts were to receive easy posi­ tions. Trial of the case was begun eight days ago. and given to the jury fol­ lowing the charge of the judge. Both Mr Fletcher and Father Hay­ den, w ho were in the court room when Iho jury reported, expressed satisfac­ tion with the result. “A mistrial is virtually an acquit­ tal," they declared. District Attorney Cllnt W. Hager, who prosecuted the case, declined to comment on the result. “I am going on an extended fish­ ing trip, and remain away until I recover from the strain and exertion which I have been under since I be­ gan to prepare the case,” he said. Another indictment is pending over Mr. Fletcher. Mr. Hager said he had no plans for either the retrial of the Fletcher- Ha.vden case or the trial of Mr. Fletch­ er on the separate indictment. When the jury was brought into the court room, Albert M. Shomo, fore­ man, in response to a question from the judge, stated that there was “not a single, solitary chance for an agree­ ment." Judge Ervin then explained that it would be useless to Keep the Jury any lODgGr and he declared a mistrial. With the exception of time out for weals, the jury was in continuous session for practically twelve hours. Members of the jury were taken to the Kobert Fulton hotel for the night and began deliberating on the case again at nine o'clock next morning. Not a word was heard as to how the jury stood until one o’clock In the af­ ternoon, when Judge Ervin asked for a report. The wife and daughter of Mr. FIecther were in the court room when the jury reported and scores of friends of both Mr. Fletcher and the Rev. Hayden congratulated them on the re­ sult of the trial. Both defendants remained in the court room during the entire time the jury was in session at the federal ■building. Mr. Fletcher plans to return to Mi­ ami, where he is in the ice business, and Father Hayden said he had no plans for the present. •‘I am waiting for information trom toy bishop,” he explained. i Mr. Fletcher, who was tried in Feb­ ruary along with A. E. Sartaln, former ■warden of the penitentiary, and Law­ rence Rhiel, on another conspiracy in­ dictment, was acquitted. Mr. Sartain was sentenced to serve eighteen months and Mr. Rhiel a year and a day in the Atlanta prison. A hearing for a new trial will be held ibefore Judse Ervin In Mobile next lnonth.

Chance To Escape— Plan To Rebuild Immediately Santa Barbara, Calif.—A series of -earthquakes, described by survivors as rocking and swaying the business cen­ ter of Santa Barbara as if it were on a turbulent ocean, left the princi­ pal structures of the Channel City a mass of debris and ruins. The loss of life was not large, due to the tremor occurring at 8:44 o’clock In the morn­ ing and also that the mass of ruins fell In the second earthquake some fifteen minutes after the first tremor. Indications are that twelve lives were Iosif although this rests upon the recovery of several bodies asserted to be In the ruins. Mrs:- Charles E. Perkins, widow of the late railroad wizard, former pres­ ident of the Chicago, Burlington and Quincy, was declared to be burled in the ruins of a section of the Arling­ ton hotel. Manager A. L. Richmond said that he did not have the slightest hope that she escaped, and debris is being removed to recover the, body. Manager Richmond also believed that Bertram B. Hancock, of Los An­ geles, was killed. — his room having been above that of Mrs. Perkins and' being completely demolished. Estimates of the loss vary from three million dollars, a conservative figure, by the city manager, to thirty million dollars, a figure quoted by the city engineer. State street, the main thoroughfare, is a ghastly avenue of ruin, portions of its most stately buildings being tum ­ bled down, and cornices, walls and fronts of practically all principal structures shattered down. Buildings practically destroyed in­ clude the Samarkand hotel, New Cal­ ifornia hotel, San Marcos building, the Elks building, First National bank, the American Legion building, public li­ brary, Moose hall, Knights of Colum- bua hall, Presbyterian church; hall of records, county jail, El Nldo hotel, SL Francis hospital, St. Vincent orphan­ age, the latter two new and costly Structures. The earthquake continued practical­ ly an entire day The shocks menac­ ed the water supply by crashing out the dam of Sheffield reservoir, but a by-pass has been established to a main reservoir back in the hills and water provided for the city. The ter­ ror-stricken thirty thousand inhabit­ ants, In most cases, settled down to an emergency existence and by noon many of them were living on the beau­ tiful lawns of the city. “I have been through fifty earth­ quakes, but never one iike this be­ fore,” said Manager Richmond of the Arlington hotel.. "It Just took the ho­ tel that we considered strong as a fortress and shook it back and forth as If it were a rag. ‘it was precisely as it one were at sea in a storm. One would UOt believe it possible for a building to move with such force in so many di­ rections and apparently so limply as did the Arlington. The hotel is a to­ tal loss.” $75,000 Lawsuit Result of • Accident. Marietta.—Mrs. W. A. Corhan1 wid­ ow of W. A.

Washington.—Steps are being taken by the United States to promote a conference Of the powers on China, primarily for the abolition of the spe­ cial privileges enjoyed by foreigners, which are the object of criticism by Chinese during the current disorders. This action, announced in a high of­ ficial quarter, has beeh foreshadowed. Senator Borah, chairman of the for­ eign relations committee, recently de- clatred publicly that by rellquishing these extra-territorial rights the focal point of much of the current trouble in China would be removed. Chinese Demand Allen City’s Return Washington.—Demand of the Can­ ton government that the international city of Sbameen be ceded back to Chi­ na hits directly at the vital question of abolishing privileges of foreigners raised by Senator Borah as the fester­ ing spot of the Chinese trouble.

SURPLUS FOR YEAR IS $250,505,238 NATIONAL DEBT CUT $734,819,- 101.59 TO $20,516,193,887.90, SAYS TREASURY STATEMENT ESTIMATES JIRE EXCEEDED Government Better Equipped To Make Volstead Aet Effective, Secretary Melton Concludes—Blg Surplus Washington.—The story of the fis­ cal year 1925 was told by the treas­ ury in a review of its operations dur­ ing the twelve months which ended July I, showing total ordinary re­ ceipts ,of $3,780,148,684.42 and total expenditures of $3,529,643,466.09, with the resulting surplus of $250,505,- 238.33. The statement of the treasury’s con­ dition carried an expression of Sec­ retary Melton’s conclusion that, due to the processes of reorganization in the last two years, “it is believed that as a result of Its experience and de­ velopment, the treasury is better or­ ganized and equipped to make the Vol­ stead act effective. “This part of the review declared that plans for reorganization of pro­ hibition enforcement were rapidly ap­ proaching completion, and told of the work done In this connection in the coast guard, customs division and pro­ hibition unit of the treasury. The surplus for the year afforded treasury officials great satisfaction, being almost four times the amount forecast last October and $50,000,000 higher than the figure President Cool- idge gave In his address'at the semi­ annual budget meeting only a little over ten days ago. Officials offered no explanation for the unexpected. rise in the amount, letting the figure speak for itself. Ob­ servers suggested, however, that bet­ ter business conditions were reflected in the total and insisted that some at the Increased revenue had resulted from unleashing of capital to produc­ tive' enterprise through the lowering of surtaxes. The year’s operations accomplished a reduction of $734,619,101.59 In the public debt, and here, too, the esti­ mates previously made were exceeded, for In none of them had the treasury expressed a belief that a reduction of more than $700,000,000 could be effected. As a result, the nation’s outstanding obligations stood at $20,- 516,193,887.90 when the books were closed July I, The reduction was made possible by the use of $466,538,113.83 set aside through operation of the statu­ tory sinking fund and other items le­ gally chargeable against the debt. “The surplus for the fiscal year 1Q2!) has &lready been used In reduc­ tion of the debt," the statement ex­ plained, "and is not available for tax reduction. Since tax reduction means a loss in revenue annualy, it is only the annual surplus to be expected In future years which is the margin available for tax reduction and should be so used.” . England Interested In Georgia Tobacco N ashville--The Export Tobacco company, an English corporation, has been so much impressed with the quality of tobacco exported from the Nashville market that if has sent two special representatives here on an in­ specting tour. These' men, J. Neal Sweeney and A. F. Hobson, will be In Berrien county for several weeks ob- serving the soil methods of cultiva­ tion and curing of tobacco. They have' already visited several farms and are highly pleased at what they have seen bere. It is thought that Berrien will receive special notice and the tobacco market in Nashville will receive spe­ cial consideration as the result of 4he Export Tobacco company’s interest in this territory.

Facing an estimated loss of between twenty million and twenty-five mil­ lion dollars, possibly two million dol­ lars of earthquake insurance, ths banking, business, Industrial and civic leaders launched a progrc.m of imme­ diate building, based on a twenty mil­ lion dollar loan and a two million dol­ lar earthquake aid fund. Jumping Into the financial breach, the banking chiefs broadcast to the clearing houses of the nation a request for the flotation of the twenty mil­ lion dollar reconstruction loan through the Santa Barbara Clearing House as­ sociation. Simultaneously the business and civic leaders accepted the offers of San Francisco and Los Angeles to send their best engineering talent here lmmmediatety to direct the demolition of the antiquated, damaged buildings and to outline the plans of the new Santa Barbara. The two million dollar earthquake aid fund, it was explained by the clear­ ing house association, Is to wipe out mortgages on the business section, thus paving the way for the utiliza­ tion of the entire twenty million dol­ lar loan for new buildings. . H. C. Cotton. Los Angeles banker, upon his arrival here from Los An­ geles, announced that negotiations had been completed for the establishment o£ a two and a half million dollar re­ volving fund to assist in the recon­ struction of property In the Santa Barbara earthquake zone. Cotton declared that the San Fran­ cisco clearing house had agreed to place a million dollars in the fund, Los Angeles a million dollars and the remaining five hundred thousand to be subscribed to by small southern California banks. An indication of the spirit that per­ vades the city was fupished by the statement of one of the bank presi­ dents who said that of the hundreds who came to the temporary banking quarters amid the ruins the great m a­ jority made deposits and only a few withdrew cash. Some two million dollars In earth­ quake insurance was carried on the business district wrecked by the re­ cent earthquakes, according to esti­ mates by insurance brokers. Jewels and bonds valued at one hundred and fifty thousand dollars, property of Mrs. Charles E. Perkins of Burling­ ton, Iowa, earthquake victim, were found intact in ruins of the Arlington hotel. Seat In Congress Is Won By Woman Lowell, Mass.—The voters of the Fifth congressional district, at a spe­ cial election, overwhelmingly elected Mrs. Edith Nourse Rogers, Republi­ can, to represent them in congress. Mrs. Rogers is the wife of the late congressman from the district, John Jacob Rogers, who died last March, :and she will be the first woman from New England to sit in congress. Mrs. Rogers’ margin over Eugene N. Foss ,Democrat, former governor of the state, was In excess of 2 1/2 to I Her total vote was 23,614 as against Poss' 9,251. There are 32 towns and cities in the district. Smuggling Charge Against Chinamen. Savannah.—An official government interpreter coming to Savannah to quiz five Chinamen held In jail here by the immigration 'authorities and suspected of having been smuggled nto this country. E. T. Whatley, im­ migration Inspector, questioned the Chinamen. It is reported from an au­ thoritative source that they admitted having been smuggled in from Cuba at a cost of $800 each.

Halt Debt Plans Washington*—Negotiations for the funding of Italy’s war debt to the United Stated came to a sudden, al­ though temporary, halt after two con­ ferences, and no further conversa­ tions on the subject are expected until after August I. The delay, It was an­ nounced, arose from a desire of the Italian commissioners to obtain addi­ tional' data from Rome relating to It­ aly's capacity to pay. Mario Alberti the technical member of the mission’ will leave immediately for Italy to su­ pervise preparation for the documents. Slayer Tries To Suicide By Fire Route Chicago.

Boston.—The doors of the Charles town state prison clanged behind him 50 years ago when lie was a stripling of seventeen. ToAy he is a grizzled old njan of sixty-seven, but he still Is fighting, fighting, fighting In the hope that some day he will get out to see the modern world about which lie fias read so much. H e wants to see ..a trolley car, to ride In an automobile, to fly over the mountain tops In an airplane. Jesse Pomeroy, the most fa­ mous “lifer” In all America, has written a really grtiphic poem on the Hying machine. Although 20 years of his time has been spent In solitary' confinement, Pomeroy does not feel that the world has passed him by. His “solitary'' was done years ago, when he was young and rebellious and fought and broke all the prison rules. For the last two decades Jesse has been what they always call the model prisoner. Sum BoaAon Woman. That Is why he has entered suit for libel against a Botson woman who wrote a letter to a newspaper claiming that Pomeroy bad skinned alive a little kitten placed In his cell. Pomeroy feels this lettet has prejudiced the public against him again and ruined his chances for partle or pardon per­ haps for years to come. And so he says he had been damaged $5,000 worth. Pomeroy’s half century of confine­ ment has been spent under the very shadow of Bunker Hill. Pomeroy has Just suffered another setback, the re­ fusal of Governor Fuller to consider him for a pardon. When Pomeroy was fourteen It was charged he Iiad murdered a four-year* old boy, found with his throat cut and 15 stab wounds In Iiis ■ little body. Three years iater Pomeroy was con- vlcted and sentenced to be hanged. Tiie governor commuted the sentence He Is an Ornnlverous Reader. to life Imprisonment “because of the lad's youth.” The “boy fiend,” the “fiend Incar­ nate,” as he was called at the time, entered the state prison September 9, 1876. And he has been there eser since. Perhaps if his suit for libel Is permitted to stand in the courts he may get out to attend the trial. Per- haps that chance rather than the noed for $5,000 damages has prompted him In the suit. There is further explana­ tion of the libel action in the fact that Porperoy lias come to consider himself an able lawyer. He has read and studied law for years, giving especial attention, of course, to murder trials. Not many years ago he prepared what was pronounced a very able brief on his case and tried to get permission to argue it before tha Supreme Judicial court of Massachusetts. He was de­ nied the request, as he has been denied every request looking to his liberty. Student of Languages. Pomeroy has studied languages and s proficient In at least four. Perhaps he hopes to do a little world travel be- i Z V f ?ays. are ended- He also has studied chemistry and is well read In history His turn for poetry is not at ail bad and he is one of the most vaJu®d contributors to the prison mag­ azine.

Washington. — Two poles of Ihe world’s rather generous supply are monopolizing attention just now; the North pole, In search of wblcb Amund­ sen dropped from sight; and the North ’ Magnetic pole, whose' machinations In throwing explorers' off their route, cartographers, and Instrument makers for the MacMillan Arctic expedition are seeking to circumvent But these are not the only poles that the earth has, a bulletin from the Washington headquarters of the National Geographic society points out, “The earth's polar posses­ sions go by twos,” says the bulletin. “Exactly opposite the North pole Is the South pole, and In the hemisphere opposite the North Magnetic pole Is the South Magnetic pole. In addition there Is a pole of cold both for the northern and southern hemispheres. The earth may be credited, therefore, with six fairly well recognized poles. “More has'been written and thought about the North pole, undoubtedly, than about all the other poles together. “In spite of the early lure which It exerted, the North pole has been visited only once In ail recorded time. Rear Admiral Robert E. Peary reached It dn April. 6, 1909 and spent 30 hours making observations In its vi­ cinity. He found it to be not on land, but In the sea, though a sea covered; of course, by thick ice. Through a hole In this ice five miles south of the pole Peary took a sounding paying out 9.000 feet of wire without finding bottom. Every Direction South. "It requires imagination to appre­ ciate the North pole. It is the imagi­ nary point where the Imaginary axis of the earth, emerges. As one stands at the pole, every direction In which he can face is south. In the summer the sun makes a complete circle near the horizon every 24 hours, never drop­ ping out of sight; In the winter, if one could stand there, he would see the pole-star directly overhead, while all the other stars would appear to wheel around'it. “The North pole |s rigid enough, but it cannot boast that It is absolutely immovable. For reasons not entirely clear, it wabbles, describing a rough circular path about fifty feet In diam­ eter . about every fourteen months— a motion which changes the latitude of the majority of places on the earth's surface by amounts ranging from a few feet to fifty. “The South pole, twin of tbe North pole, geometrically and geograph­ ically, has not been the objective of nearly so many expeditions, yet it has been visited twice by man: by Amundsen In December, 1911, and by Scott, a month later. The latter lost his life on the return trip. Unlike its northern twin, the South pole Is situ­ ated on land, such a large mass that it has come to be called the Antarctic continent. Due to the large land area about the South pole, that point has considerably colder summers than those at the North pole. “In one sense the magnetic poles are more truly earth features than the geographical poles, for they have no celestial aspect's. They cnnnot be lo­ cated by any sort of astronomical ob­ servations. They Ue more than a thousand miles from the true poles, and are believed to be slowly changing position. These poles have their be­ ing because the earth Is a huge mag­ net. probably due to Its rotation. It Is only with a compass needle or with certain electrical apparatus that the existence of the magnetic poles can be determined. It is their effect on the compass needle, on the other hand, that has made navigation fairly simple. Magnetic Poles Not Symmetrical. The North magnetic pole lies on the Boothnia peninsula In the latitude of Point Barrow, Alaska, and the longi­ tude of Omaha, Neb. To It the north end of the compass needle points. The needle dips as tbe magnetic pole Is ap­ proached, and. when Boothnla is reached, stands on Its point. “The South Magnetic pole does not He directly on the opposite side of the earth from its northern counter­ part, as one might expect. If it had this theoretical position it would be sit­ uated directly south of the point of India on the seventieth parallel of south latitude. Instead, It lies east­ ward nearly a quarter of the earth’s circumference, near the one hundred and fifty-fifth degree of east longitude, south of the easternmost point of Aus­ tralia. “The earth may be said to have a fifth and sixth pole, ‘poles of cold.’ It might be expected that the. geographic poles would be the'points of lowest temperature, but the arrangement of water, having a tempering effect and land and altitude, tending toward cold, makes the theoretical poles of cold fall to conform exactly to the physical polea Temperature records for the southern polar regions are rather meager, but it Is probable that the southern pole of cold. Is In the high­ lands of the Antarctic continent, 'not- far from the South pole. “Due to the great land masses ot the northern hemisphere, especially that of Eurasia, the northern pole of cold Is far from the North pole. It Is situated west of Verkhoyansk, Si­ beria. about two hundred miles inland from the mouth of the Lena river. This region is supposed to be colder In Jan­ uary than the North pole itself.’* M aya C ulture A kin to G reeks Sculptured Monument of Rare Beauty Found by. New Orleans Explorers. New Orleans.—The Maya Indian civilization Is classified by Dr. Wlt- -IIam E. Gates, who is directing Maya research work for Tulnne university of New Orleans, as equal at its apex to that of any people recorded in a~- dent history, and comparable between 200 and 800 A. D. to the older civiliza­ tion of the ancient Greeks, Romans and Egyptians. Doctor Gats, who is head of the middle American research department of Tulane, said one of the university’s expeditions last March reported the dlscoverey of many hitherto unrecord­ ed monuments. These dot the entire Maya terrrtory, which embraces the Isthmus of Tehuantepec and the Yu­ catan peninsula In Mexico, and ex­ tends into Guatemala and Honduras. Built to Record Events. The monuments appear Io have been built at five-year Inter-als for record­ ing the history and science of the race, ant. bear a date at the top. Doctor Gates said they indicate au Intense Interest in astronomy.

Income Tax Washington.—Millionaires are be­ coming more numerous in the United States, but their number still Is far short of the highwater mark of 1916, when 206 paid Income taxes. In 1923, Ihe Internal revenue bureau an­ nounced, 74 Incomes of $1,000,000 or more were reported, an increase of seven over 1922. The millionaires paid taxes aggre­ gating $33,788,475, and the contribu­ tions of 7,698,347 other taxpayers brought the total for the year to $793,- 962,165. This was about $157,000,000 less than for 1922, the 25 per cent re­ funds voted by congress being largely responsible. The bureau’s statistics disclosed that taxable personal Incomes In the United States In 1923 amounted to $26,336,- 337.843, or nearly $5,000,000,000 more than the 1922 figure. Those who paid the In come tax-tor 1923 comprised 6.94 per cent of the total population on July I of that year, as estimated by the census bureau. The figure of 1922 was 6.2 per cent. More than half of the taxpayers were In the Income classes between $2,000 and $5,000. and nearly half of the tax­ able incomes reported were derived from “personal industry,” including wages, salaries and commissions and the like. ‘ ALASKA INDIANS STILL CLING TO OLD CUSTOM OF TWO WIVES Native ' Marries Woman' Older Than Hlmtelf to Do Work and Younger One to Bear. Children. New York.—Alaska Indians In some instances still have two wives, an elder one to do the work and a younger one to bear the children, according to Mlss Marie E. Faldlne of Juneau, who Is In New York attending a child welfare conference. She is a Red Cross pub­ lic health nurse, and has organized public health work In southeastern Alaska. “The practice of having two wives Is np longer common,” said Miss Faldlne, “but it Is an old-established custom and Is done under cover. The residual ef­ fects are seen In the fact that the Alaskan native generally marries a woman older than himself. “Alaskan natives In the southeast­ ern part of the territory live In villages of hufi, rudely built, and In many for the native woman does not know how to' make it Occasionally they make an unleavened bread, and they are adept In the act of cooking flap­ jacks." cases in tribal huts. In the northern part the tribes are wandering, living' in tents In summer and In their igloos In winter. “In the region where I have been working the tribal marriage customs are very strict. No member can marry a woman In his own tribe. An . Eagle may marry a Raven or a Bear, but he is forbidden to inate with an Eagle. "The Alaskan native Is stoical and almost morose. He does not smile and call a greeting tbe way the Eskimo does, and seldom speaks. The natives are notably kind to their children, how­ ever. ‘•‘Squat In build and with situating eyes, the Alaskan native is oriental in appearance. They make’ their living by fishing, largely, and live on fish, seaweeds and berries. Their language is almost impossible to ’learn. They have no negatives In their speech. “If a native eats bread he buys IL Unsinkable Boat Given Test by Oakland Men Oakland, Cal.—A boat, claimed to be unsinkable, and noncapsizable, was tried out here by two Oakland men who are its inventors.

FORECASTS BIG COTTON YIELD GOVERNMENT REPORTS ESTI- MATEOF 14,339,000 BALES. Washington.—A cotton crop of 14,- '339,000 equivalent 500-pound bales was forecast by the department ot agriculture as this year’s probable production. Should favorable conditions prevail from now until time of .picking and the quantity forecast materialize, the crop would be the third largest in cotton history. It would exceed last year’s crop by almost three-quarters of a million bales. The prospective' bumper crop is th* result of an exceedingly large acre­ age, probably the largest ever planted, and the favorable condition generally of the growing plants. There were 46,448,000 acres in cultivation June 25. That is 3,867,000 acres more than in cultivation a year ago. The increased acreage is due to the planting of con­ siderable new land, substitution of cotton on land used last year for var­ ious other crops and the planting of land that was Idle last year. In every state except Virginia, Missouri and Arizona the area,exceeded last year’s. The condition of the growing plants was better than a year ago every­ where except in Taxas. The average condition was 75.9 per cent of u nor­ mal. This is 4.7 points above the June 25 condition last year and 1.9 points above the IO year June 25 average. In the last month the crop as a whole declined 0.7 points as compar­ ed with a 10-year average improve­ ment of 2.0 points. In Tevis the de­ cline was six points, whereas the usual Improvement there is about three points. Rain is badly needed tor cot­ ton there. The area in cultivation June 25 (in thousands of acres) and the condition of the crop on that date by states follows: Virginia, acreage 96 and condition 83 per cent ot a normal; North Caro­ lina, 2,183 and 77; South Carolina, 2,740 and 70; Georgia, 3,564 and 76: Florida, 115 and 84; Alabama, 3,425 and 79; Mississippi 3,424 and 88; Louisiana 1,916 and 81; Texas 18,237 and 64; Arkansas 3,649 and 87; Ten­ nessee 1,219 and 85; Missouri 503 and 90; Oklahoma 4,867 and 88; Califor­ nia 170 and 96; Arizona 163 and 92; New Mexico 139 and 88; all other states 38 and 94; about 150,000 acres in Lower California (Old Mexico) are not included in California figures, nor in the United States total.

C H A P T E R III— C o n tin u ed It brought questions—a myriad of them. And some answers. More than once, In the years which had followed their first meeting, Bart Bogers had wondered why Anita Frannisthn al­ lowed herself to suffer the cruelties which must be her lot- at the bands of her father. This was an independ­ ent age, Rogers told himself, an age when a girl was forced neither through precedent nor public opinion to countenance Indignities cr mistreat­ ment. This was an age when a girl, rather than submit to cruelties, could make her own way in the world, and Rogers had wondered why she had not done so. Tonight there had come an answer in an unanswerable mys­ tery. Was it Old Jim, who through the fear of what he knew Inevitably would descend upon her, who bad kept her in the unkind hands of her father, rather than allow her to go forth to apparent security, and by the excur­ sion bring even a worse fate upon herself? What was that fate? What was the evil thing which “Bull” Fran- niston held in his keeping? What sort of a power could this man hold, which, through a few words, could control the destinies of two persons? , Breakfast, then the perversity of nature, demanding sleep after deny­ ing it, sent the fatigued man to a few hours’ rest After that—a cemetery, and a caustic, snapping-tongued man, who accompanied him back to the hotel, only to leave him the moment they reached the door. “Going to send for you tonight,” was his parting. “Don’t go running around. I want to know where to put my hands on you when the time comes. We’ve got to talk over some things.” ‘TH be in my room.” “Very well. I’ll count on that.” Then he turned into the crowded street, leaving Bart Rogers alone, once more with his grief and his conjec­ tures. The motley collection of hu­ man riffraff that flocks to every oil boom town was present in full, force below In the street. * But up in his room, Bart Rogers watched dusk and then night come with hardly a thought of the milling throngs so near. He had left word at the desk that he was not to be dis­ turbed by any one- save a messenger from the office of Leon Barrows—even" that afternoon as the one dilapidated carriage followed the hearse to the cemetery, a man had scrambled out from the sidewalk with an offer for his land. Not that Bart Rogers did not care to sell, either. Right now, however, he did not want to discuss the sale of land, or to bicker over prices. His thoughts were on a different thing, off the loneliness of a mound he had left behind that afternoon. An hour he watched the money-mad mob in a vacant, detached manner, at last to rise at the sound of a knock on the door. Old Jim was there, look­ ing querulously up at him, but this time he did not enter. "Lawyer barrows sent me for you.” “Certainly.” Bart reached for his hat and joined him. Slowly they de­ scended to the street, then forced their way to the broad, wooden stair­ way which led to the office of the at­ torney. r^There Old Jim tugged at his arm, and when Bart turned toward ^Im , asked guardedly: “What is it? What does be want you for?” “I. don’t .know. He told me this afternoon that he would want to see me tonight. Be said he had some things to talk over with me.” “Is it about money?” There was a sharp insistence in the older, man’s voice. ■ “I don’t know. I suppose so—about what my father left and that sort of thing. It all has to be settled up and—” “Then be careful! Understand—be careful! Don’t do, or say a thing with­ out being sure of your ground. Don’t make them any promises—” * “T lieyr “Yes, they’ve been up there talking for an hour. He called me from the - window and sent me over to the hotel. Lawyer Barrows didn’t send me. He—” "Whom do you mean? I don’t—” But the question and-answer were aaded by a flood of light from the of- Conrlney Ryley Cooper © By the Bell Syndicate, Inc. WNU Service fice of Leon Barrows. The door had opened, to disclose the attorney stand­ ing there. In wait. Old Jlm turned hurriedly and descended the stairs. Rogers went forward, and walked to­ ward the desk, where sat the one man In the world‘he had regarded as an enemy. “Bull” Frannistoni CHAPTER IV A rg u m e n t “You know Franniston,. don’t you, Rogers?” Barrows, asked. "This, ac­ cording to the legal phraseology,” he .continued in his usual, sarcastic tones, “Is the last will and testament of Franklin Rogers, recently deceased. I intend to probate it at Mannington to­ morrow. Therefore, I thought that I’d better read it to you two inter­ ested gentlemen tonight.”. “Just a minute!” Rogers rose heat­ edly. -“I object to tills man being here. I—” "Go ahead and object, if it will do you any good. I put up the money for you and your father. I’m here, and I’m going to stay here. Iim interest­ ed In this will, and I’m going to hear it read.” - Barrows, meanwhile, had turned a cold eye upon the younger man. “To my son, Barton Rogers,” con­ tinued the biting words of the at­ torney, ignoring Bart’s protest, “I give, devise and bequeath all my real and personal belongings with such excep­ tions as shall be noted below, all moneys, goods, chattels and effects, and the-sole right and title to 160 acres of land comprising the northwest quar­ ter of Section 63, Township 8, Range 74, to have and to hold, and with all rights and concessions to do with as he will, except as follows: “To my good friend, Egbert Fran­ niston, ln”wecognitlon of his unfail­ ing friendship—” "That’s a lie!” shouted' Bart. “I won’t believe it!” “—In recognition of his unfailing friendship and his succor in time of need,” went on Barrows, “I give, de­ vise and bequeath all oil and mineral rights underlying the surface of the land comprised in the northwest quar­ ter of Section 63, Township 8, Range 74, the same being the identical sec­ tion, township and range mentioned in the previous paragraph of this docu­ ment. Upon acceptance of this be­ quest, with the right to experiment in search of such mineral and oil depos­ its, and the free use of such land as shaU be necessary for such investiga­ tions, ‘the rental of any needed land for pipeage, derricks, wells, mines, shafts and other equipment in case of the discovery and production of any oil or mineral, said rental to the afore­ said Barton Rogers not to exceed $2,500 per year, payable at the end of each calendar year, and with the agreement and understanding that all oil and min­ erals which shall be taken from the ground or beneath the ground upon tiiis previously described land, shall be the sole right and property of said Egbert Franniston, it is agreed and understood that any and all debts in­ curred by the testator during his life­ time and by the said Barton Rogers before the death of the. testator, at this time owing to the said Egbert, Franni­ ston, including notes, deeds, chattel mortgages or any other paper of in­ debtedness, shall be declared by the said Egbert Franniston to be null, void and canceled, and without recourse In law.” It was the joker In the will! The thing which gave Barton Rogers ev­ erything—yet nothing! “Let me read that again!” came huskily from Bart. “In case you don’t understand that—” “I 'understand the words,” came somewhat thickly. “But not the meaning? It’s simple enough. Just this: Franniston takes all oil on that land and cancels the debts you owe him. It was a bargain which seemed to be all on/the side of your father. Franniston here will tell you that I said that very thing to him the day the will was signed—all three of us were up here in this office. Your father thought this would be the last place In the world where oil would be discovered, and told us so. I thought the same thing. . Franniston thought differently. He said that he whs will­ ing to take the gamble and would lend your father up to $10,000 for i t That you didn’t get. the money is—’’ “I’m willing to pay up-the rest to show that I’m on the square.” Fran­ niston was lighting his cigar. Barf Rogers turned on him. “Are you?" he jeered. "A wonder­ ful philanthropist with millions In sight I” “I didn’t know it when I made the bargain.” f ‘ x “I’ve got a different opinion of that... Besides, I won’t believe this until. I see the signature and—” 1 “Look on the bottom of the page, then,” came acidly from Leon Barrows. “Is that your fathers writing?” The eyes of the young man cen­ tered. “Yes,” came at last Bart could not understand—but he did recognize the signature as his fa­ ther’s. Then Barrows spoke again. “Now look at the Second signature,” he said, acridly. “Have you ever seen that before?1 “It looks like the signature of Slier* Iff Graham. x “That’s correct,” continued Barrows, "and Fm not going to argue with you much longer about this, Rogers. It’s plain and it’s fact. Your father re­ ceived concessions from ‘Bull’ Franni­ ston. In payment for them he made the agreement to turn over to him the oil and mineral * rights—the latter, of course, being only a technicality. NcJw you’re kicking about it!” “I’m kicking because I believe that there’s some trickery about it, that some advantage was taken of my fa­ ther and—” . “That’s about enough!” Barrows con­ tinued to point a lean, vibrating finger at him. “All I’ve got to say for you is that you’re a welcher and a quitter and yellow! Your father took this man’s money on a gamble. When you came in and tried to pay it back I wouldn’t accept it, and I told you that the notes were only a matter of form. You were very well satisfied with that. Bat now that they’ve . struck oil you’re trying to crawl out of a dead man’s bargain. I’m ashamed of you. Look here ! Where did your father keep his private papers?” “In a safety deposit vault at the bank.” Then, don’t stand here arguing with us as to whether there was any trick­ ery about this will. If you have any doubt just go out and see if you can scare up a different will. Incidentally” —the words were burning with sar* casm—“you might look in that safety deposit box. You might find a copy „ of this document there—where your ’ father put. it for safekeeping! In the meantime, get out of my office.” For a long moment Bart Rogers stood trembling there'like a muscle- tensed tiger before the spring. His hands were clenched, his eyes narrow, and glaring; slowly down his chin-: trickled a thin flow of blood from a ! tear in his lower lip where teeth had set, unnoticed, upon it. His arms raised slowly and the fists clenched. Then, suddenly they dropped aud Bart Rogers rushed from the room. Dodging the crowds on the thronged sidewalks. Bart hurried to the town’s one livery stable and rented a horse. Five minutes later, he was thudding across the flat, toward Mannington, ; twenty miles away. At last the dimly lighted office of the sheriff loomed to view and Bart saw a man dozing in a chair. Rogers awakened him. “I’m Bart Rogers,” he began, “son of the man who made a will you wit­ nessed some time ago. Did or did not that will give any oil rights to a man nam ed'‘Bull’ Franniston?” The sheriff rose and stretched. “Think they did,” came his a n ­ nouncement in an offhand m anner.I “Ain’t you got a‘ copy of your own?” “I—I suppose so.” Bart .-Rogers, suddenly tired, suddenly cognizant of defeat, turned toward the door. “Yes” —yes, I guess I’ve got. a copy of I t ’’ He went out into the night then, and to the return from what he now saw had been a hopeless and foolish quest Bart Rogers turned his thoughts to the safety-deposit bor. If that paper were present, it could mean but one thing— I That his father, Franklin Rogers, ' actually had made his will with the provisions as declared to Bart in, the office of Leon Barrows that night. It would be prima facie evidence that his father had willingly and knowing­ ly signed away to a man whom B art hated the thing that would make “Bull” Franniston a millionaire, and Bart Rogers a pensioner, a hanger-on for the rentals of a' flowing gold mine I that, by the right of work, of strug- I gle, of privation, yes, even suffering, should have been his. It would end all thought of trickery, for it would mean that Franklin Rogers had known what he was,-Signing, and that he had deliberately and know;ingly saved the copy of a document that was to rob his son of millions. W hat would that safety box yield? Cow-Testing Is Aid to Dairying Associations Now Throwing Light on Production of - .. 307,073 Cows. (Prepared by the United States Department Ot Agriculture.) Seven hundred and thirty-two stars now adorn a map of the United States In the office of the bureau of dairying of the United States Departm ent-of Agriculture. .These stars represent the number of cow-testTng associations now throwing light on the milk and butter- fat production of 807,073 cows. Thou- , sands of dairymen "have watched with interest the growth of the testing idea from the time the first star was placed on the map in 1906 to the present, with 732 stars marking the progressive dairy communities. Like^Chart of Heavens. This map, says the bureau, may be likened to a chart of the starry heav­ ens in the early evening. As the stars begin to appear one by one, then mbre rapidly, and finally in clusters in every part of the skies, so have the cow-testing associations appeared, first one by one, then more rapidly, and now In groups in various parts of the United States. To carry this analogy still further: The Newaygo county (Mich.) associ­ ation, the.first to be organized In the United States, may represent the eve­ ning star, which is the Iirsfi to come out. The big associations of our west­ ern coast may represent the largest planets. Other smaller but no less worthy associations may be.thought of as stars of various magnitudes. Some of the more brilliant associations may be likened to Mercury, Venus, and" Mars, but it requires no wild flight of the Imagination to detect the milky way in that great group of cow-testing associations that extends in a long and graceful curve from the Dakotas through the upper stretches of the Mississippi and St. Lawrence valleys, then across the Afleghienles to the eastern shores of New England, Cowc Now on Test. In these associations 1.2. per cent of our dairy cows are now on test As the years roll round it is hoped, says the department, that more and more cows may be placed on test, and that finally every dairyman may become a member of a wide-awake cow-testing association. Then will the analogy of the stars and the associations be com­ plete. Capon Production Shows Big Increase in Profits The practice of caponizing chickens is becoming a popular and profitable one among the farmers of South Da­ kota. Clara M. Sutter, poultry spe­ cialist at the South Dakota State col­ lege, reports that more than 15,000 birds were caponlzed in the state last1 year. As an illustration of the value of caponizing, the cockerels that are to be marketed, Miss Sutter cites the in­ stance of a Grant county farm er who witnessed one of her demonstrations. Returning home, he performed the op­ eration on 40 of his birds. When he sold his surplus in January he was in­ formed by his local dealer that capons were bringing 27 cents a pound while cockerels were selling for only 14 cents. In addition, the capons weighed from one to two pounds more than the cockerels. The practice of caponizing is very simple, according to Miss Sut­ ter, and can be performed by anyone who has the necessary instruments and who has' been shown the proper methods. It looks as if there was a deep-laid plot, with the plotters winning hands down. What next? (TO BB CONTINUED.) F low ery A d vertisin g From an auto ad: It is not a mech­ anism; it is an inspiration. You enter an enchanted- world, carried steadily onward by a force as Irresistible as time. There is no semblance of harsh­ ness—only the gentle, undulations of its springs to stimulate a wayward fancy. It suggests a Venetian gon­ dola, languidly ' drifting on halcyon seas, or a placid stream winding its silvery way through sylvan glens. Th* symphony of- it all lulls one into se -I rene forgetfulness.

Iniist Skull Is Human , The famous Piltdown skull, wbicif has been pronounced prehuman by some anthropologists, is most assured­ ly human, according to Sir Arthur Keith, probably Britain’s greatest physical anthropologist, In the latest revision of his chief work, “The An­ tiquity of Man.” His latest computa­ tions on the skeletal Fragments indl- cate a brain capacity for' the creature of about 1,300 cufric. centimeters. He holds' that 1,000 cubic cent’imeters T i the lowest human IeveL One Cpse of Bloat W hen.cattle have eaten a lot of salt just before being turned on pasture they are apt to drink a large ■ amount of water after filling up on green feed and that sometimes causes rapid fer­ mentation of the contents of the stom­ ach and may result in a serious case of bloat. This may happen even If the legumes are not w et Let cattle have free access to salt at all times so they will not develop an unusual thirst. ScratchFeedforHensNot over one-third ,of the scratch feed should be fed in the morning with the other two-thirds fed in the afternoon. This will allow the hens to fill their crops before going to roost. .Tiie mash feed should be be­ fore the hens all of the time. . The light feed In the morning will en­ courage them to. eat more of the mash and this is needed to furnish the mus-’ cle-building portion of the ration which is needed for heavy egg production. FeedingforEggs Well-balanced, palatable feeds are necessary to get good egg production. With good stock, the additional cost of a good ration is repaid many times Uv the extra eggs obtained. Here are some points to be observed: Feed Simple grain mixtures suPDle- mented with meat scrap, fish scrap, or Supply green feed throughout the year. . P r e v e n t S w a r m i n g b y P r o v i d i n g S h a d e Protection Is Essential on Very Hot Days. (Prepared by the United SUtee DepartmeaS of Affrlculture.) Protection of the hives and supers from the direct rays of the sun during the hottest part of the day should de­ crease the tendency of bees to swarm, according to a bulletin of the United States Department of Agriculture. Covers made of a single thickness of lumber, if unprotected, may cause great discomfort to the bees and may compel them to leave the supers dur­ ing the heat of the day, which is a condition favorable to swarming. To prevent this, shade boards large enough to project beyond the edges .of the hive may be used over, the covers. These should be adjusted with one edge even with the north side of the hive so that the extra width projects on the south side. There should be a space between the hlve-cover and the shade' board to permit a circulation of air. The double covers, which have an air space .between the inner and outer parts, afford more protection from the sun’s rays than do single cov­ ers, but these do not shade the sides of the supers. The hives, supers, and covers should be painted white. This better reflects Jhe sun’s rays: If no shade board is used, the covers should be repainted frequently. It is te be expected that the tendency, to swarm will be greater when dark or weather-beaten hive cov­ ers are used than when the covers are newly painted white, unless boards are used over them. shade BestDepthforPlowing Various- Kinds of Soils How deep is it profitable to plow? At the Blinols experiment station, results of plowing tests carried on for several years were recently published. The tests Were made in gray silt loam on tight clay In Marion and Cumberland counties and on brown silt loam In Champaign county. Less than five inches was considered as shallow, between five and eight inches medium and more than eight inches, deep plowing. When It cost $2.50 to plow an acre seven inches deep, it cost $5 an acre to subsoil and $7 an acre to deep tUl. It required four horses to pull a subsoil plow and six to puli the deep tillage machine. In Cumberland county a two-plow tractor was used for two. years to pull the deep tillage machine, and it was over­ loaded. The difference in the average yields on fields receiving the various treat­ ments was so small as to entirely lack significance. These, results check ex* actly with a similar Ohio experiment. The authors of that experiment state that the. yields from the various fields were practically Identical and In view of the expense involved, the seven-inch plowing was by far the most profitable. The use of dynamite on soils having an impervious subsoil did not material­ ly Increase yields while the cost was high. When charges were placed at intervals of one rod each way and one- third, of a stick used for each shot, the cost ran around $20 to $25 an acre with dynamite at 30 cents a pound. Study of Cost ,of Farm Power Made by Purdue In a 'study of the cost of farm power made by the Purdue university agri­ cultural experiment station in Tippe­ canoe county, Indiana, it was found on summarizing the records from 85 farms for three years, that on the third o f'th e farms where horse • labor was used most effi­ ciently, . each horse cared for 25.5 acres of crops; that on a second third of the farms; which had only average labor efficiency, each horse cared for 20.5 acres of crops; and that on the remaining third of the farms with less than average labor efficiency, ,each horse cared for only 16.8 acres of crops. Farmers, generally, who were above the average, got 50 per cent more service from their horses than did the farmers who were below - the average. . • of some kind System Pays on Farm “Business on many farms proceeds along lines planned weeks In advance ” says Prof. w..

One matter that constantly comes up to plague under the road improve­ ment system in counties, and some , times-in street improvement in towns is to find the line between public and ■ private interests In the county, foij instance, many farms are located on the public highways; and miles and miles of semi-public roads, neighboi- hood roads, must be built and main­ tained. Naturally people who are some distance off the main highways feel that they should have a good road to reach the highway, to put them on an eq jality with those more eligibly located, and their claim is reinforced bv the fact (hat they are paring for road construction and maintenance same as those who have better advantages. It is not argua­ ble. then, that neighborhood roads, or crosscountry roads, should be con structed and maintained to the limit of the county’s ability, keeping in mind always that the roads that should havefirst and closest attent ion are those on which iraflic is heaviest, and road construction and maintenance should of course be governed by the amount of traffic and the ability to treat all commun­ ities as nearly alike as possible. Along with this construction of semi-public and cross country roads, roads that are' often of benefit to a very few people, comes the abuse of construction and of maintenance for private rather than public purposes. Influential people who have a pull with the powers very often ask and secure road improvement costing up into the thousands that is in the main for private benefit. T,.ey desire to develop property and the first thing is access to it by a good road. The cost of the improvement may be far in excess of real traffic needs, but the property'is improved and there is much private benefit at public ex pense. In this era of surourban ue- velopment. of improving property Iy ing partly in and partly outside of town, and sometimes for farms far in the c mntryside, there is ofteir im­ provement at public expense that is 75 per* cent for private purposes., .Sometimes town help is given to ad­ jacent property on the plea that it will eventually come in and .pay taxes while within the town much improve­ ment is needed. And it is probably worse in the county. Wnileroads are being improved in the main for the benefit of private property, there are many unimproved roads that have stronger claims on the traffic basis But it has always been that way Those who have a pull, who have the nerve to make demand for'improve­ ment ostensibly for public purposes when In reality it is for private pur­ poses, will always get more than their share, while the really deserv ing freouently suffer because they haven’t the capacity to put on the pressure But it may be as we l occasionally to fit it be known that those who bent fit at public expense are not deceiving the public.—States­ ville Daily.

Weak In Back and Sides “Before the birth of my little girl,” says Mrs. Lena Stancil, of R. F. D. 2, Mat­ thews, Mo.-, "I was so weak in my back and sides I could not go about. I was too weak to stand up or do any work. I felt like my back was coming in two. I lost weight I didn’t 1 eat any­ thing much and waS so rest­ less I couldn’t sleep nights. “My mother used to take CARDUI For Feitiale Troubles so I sent to get i t I im­ proved after my first bottle. Cardui is certainly a great help for nervousness and . weak back. I took six bot­ tles of Cardui and by then I was well and strong, just did fine from then on. Cardui helped me so much;” Thousands of weak, suf­ fering women have taken Cardui, knowing that it had helped their mothers or their friends, and soon gained strength and got rid of their pains. Cardui should do you a lot of good. AU Druggists’ MOCKS VTLLE,JULY 8.f h : W Sammy Mandell. E-H2<S One On The Deacon. A man of the world had slipped and fallen on the icy sidewalk.

Champion Wrestler Tells What to Eat Johnpy Meyers, middleweight wres­ tling champion of the world, is strong­ ly in favor of the Johnny Meyers. use of. scientifical­ ly prepared foods. H e prefers to know tliat.V the food he is eating is pure and whole­ some rather than to take a chance with any kind of food poisoning by eating food from an u n k n o w n source. In a re­ cent interview on the ev£ of ids match with Lou T a I a b e r, from whom he won his crown, he said: “I expect to win the crown from Tnlaber. He is a fine wrestler and uses more science than any man of the mat today. However; I feel sure that my superior physical condition will prevail and that I will emerge victorious and the champion of my division. Diet is a very impor­ tant part of my program in training for a match. The system that I use is really very simple, involving only good judgment and caution in the se­ lection of food. I prefer to eat scien­ tifically prepared foods whenever pos­ sible and I never eat anything to which is attached the slightest doubt of its purity. I eat a . great deal of canned- foods because I am sure that they are pure and will have no ill ef­ fects on my digestive system! Take, just as an example of what food can do for the body—milk. It is the great­ est of body builders and a very impor­ tant part of any man’s diet. But Is sometimes impure or contaminated and may be the source of illness if used. Because of this-fact, I use evaporated milk entirely and find it very satisfac­ tory. I know that it is pure and that I will not suffer from its use. I know that it' is a great body builder be­ cause the concentration of it gives it such food value. I know that it is .easily digested, more so than market milk, In fact, because I drink it be­ fore going to -bed and feel no effects of it in the morning. This is usually hard to do with ordinary, market milk. This plan, In substance, is the same one that I use regarding other foods. If there is any chance or suspicion of impurity or low food value, I use something else. “And if a man is so situated that It is impossible for him to get the proper amount of exercise, he must be doubly cautious not to partake of any buf'the purest food. On the whole, if a man eats with wisdom andi observes the fundamental rules for • good health, there Is no reason why he should ever have a sick or uncomfortable day.” Trainer o f Boxers Gives Diet Hints To Kid Howard. of Chicago and hls_ new system of training and condition­ ing, Sammy Man­ dell, the present lightweight boxing champion of ’ the world, gives a great deal of the credit for his meteoric rise to stardom In the world of pugil­ ism. When Mandell first started fight­ ing,, he was small weak and undevet o p ed , but after t u r n in g himself over to Howard it was only a short time before he took the decision from Sid Terris of New York that resulted In . him being recog­ nized as the boss of the lightweights. Howard’s system is unique in that It works no hardship on the athlete who is in training. Unlike the sys­ tems that have been used for years, this prominent and successful trainer of men makes conditioning more of a pjeasure than a distasteful necessity. Instead of demanding that his men eat only certain things he advises them to eat what they want and when they want it as long as it is cooked in a proper manner. Mr. Howard, In a recent in-, terview on the subject of diet and con­ dition, said, in part: “Years ago it was a task, and an unpleasant one, for a boxer or a wrestler to train for a bout- because he was forced to literally starve himself unless he wanted to eat steaks and chops at all times, I Re­ member that when I was training far a match, I was so truly tired of steaks that ’I, choked every time that I ate one but it was steak or nothing. I ad­ vise my men to diet at all times but it is perfectly possible for them to diet and, at the same rime, to enjoy their food. My only ‘don’t’ is the one re­ garding the eating of such combina­ tions as fresh milk and cheese, and fruit with cream. , In fact, I advocate the use of evaporated milk entirely. Vegetables are fine and the more that the athlete eats the better he will be for it. Pastry, of certain kinds, such as homemade pies, cakes and cookies, if made correctly, and with pure butter, evaporated milk -ami pure lard, are very beneficial. Stews and boils are ideal. Taken as a whole, any food, with a f^w exceptions, is all right if properly cooked and eaten without gorging.” And one has but to look at How.ird, who is the most religious user-of his own eystem, to realize that it Is a suc­ cess. . % ITCH! —ck without Question HUNT’S GUARANTEED DISEASE REMEDIES 1*9 Solve and Soap), fail inthe treatment OfItchfEczemat * KlncwormtTetter or other itch* iOR eldn dieeaeee.

WHAT IS EVAPORATED MILK? - Did you ever stop to figure out the exact meaning of “Evaporated Milk”? The word “evaporated” may give you the idea that in the process of evapo­ ration the milk has lost some of its valuable qualities. It hasn’t. It has lost only water. Sixty per cent of the water is evaporated from the milk after it comes fresh from the cow. The first step in processing the milk is the evaporation, when a portion of the water- content is removed. The second step is the homogenization, which- insures the cream being dis­ tributed evenly throughout the milk. The third is the canning. The fourth Is sterilization, which takes place in the can-when the milk is subjected to sufficient heat to destroy the bacteria. .Thus evapordted milk remains as pure and fresh in the container as when it foamed Into the pail In the farmer’s barn. Evaporated milk is now generally recognized as . the freshest milk avail­ able to those not living on farms and producing their own milk. - For fresh­ ness In milk means purity. Transportation of milk from the dairy country to the city is well syste­ matized and rapid and yet owing to the immense ,quantities of milk that must be rushed In daily, much of it must be obtained at considerable dis­ tances and a large per cent is neces­ sarily some days old- when it is de­ livered by- the milkman. Evaporated milk, on the other hand, is last night’s .nd this morning's milk. From the dairy barn, always under rigid Inspection, It is hurried by farm­ ers to factories located In the heart of the dairy country and delivered when it is fresh. Evaporated milk is canned just at its “freshest moment,” when it is In its finest state. It is never allowed to get old. The whole proc­ ess from cow to can 'requires only a few hours. It may be interesting to - know tta t the process of sterilizing takes place after the milk has been sealed in its containers, Once In its sterilized containers, there is no pos­ sibility of deterioration. . The sterilizing of evaporated milk Insures its. purity—it makes a safe milk for the children. Evaporated milk is boiled milk, and this makes It more digestible. It may be used for any'm ilk need with safety and economy. ' For ordinary cream needs, use It just as it comes from the cam When a rich milk iS desired, add an equal part' of water. For cooking and bak­ ing, two parts water and one part milk Wul Usually suffice.

Entered at the Postoffice in Mocks- ville, N. C.. as Second-class Mail matter, March 3.1903. SUBSCRIPTION RATES: ONE YEAR. IN ADVANCE - $ I 00 SIX MONTHS. IN ADVANCE - $ 50 THREE MONTHS. IN ADVANCE $ 25 There are people living in tbis section todsy who would risk their chances for heaven to acquire a few patlry dollars. What good will money do a fellow when the devil gets him? ’ The Record has taken no part whatever in the Advance school controversy, and doesn’t propose to get tangled, up with- neighborhood and township' fights in school or church matters. It keeps us busy looking after our own affairs. If we were holding a public of­ fice that paid- a handsome salary and knew that at least 98 ,people out of every hundred wanted us to get out, we would do just like the fellow who is in—haug on uutil we were prized loose or chased out of the county. Few officeholders die and uoue resign. _ If you want to cuss the town board hunt them up and tell them face to face of their shortcomings. The Record has been cussed e uough for cussing tne various and suudry boards. We are not run ning the town or the county. We have men who get good | ay for holding down these job . L I lhem take the cussing with the pay. The blackberry crop this year wasn’t exactly a failure but 011 ac count of the drought the beriies a_e very small and hard to pick. VVe have been fortunate enough to get a few berries, but have had to take tbeiu without any c j\ er. Fortu­ nately the berries were extra sweet and required but little bugar. We trust that some of our friends will send us at least another gallon or two before the crop is gone. The County Commissioners and the Board of Educ-ttion will meet in joiut session next Fiiday the 17th, to elect a county we fare of licer. .The Record has no axe to grind but we are hoping that the two boards will secure the services of a competent persou to fill this itnporlaut office So tar as we know there are but two applicants for the position, both of \vl 011 we believe to be competent to till the office. medicines or anything else, and all this license money goes into the town treasury. If this is correct, then we believe the town board should meet the county board half way and make- it a fifty fifty propo­ sition. The entire cost of this work will be about $600, and the town and county could easily pay $300 each without bankrupting the treasury. Every taxpayer in the town and county uses this street more or less, as it is tl.e most im­ portant street in the county. Thous­ ands of people from other counties and states pass over this street ,monthly. It is a disgrace to the t)wn and county to let this missing I nk remain. It has done the town more than $Soo worth of damage. We trust that the two boards can get together and have ttr’s work done while we have a., contractor here ready to do the work. Mr. Ftanklin tells us that he will put down the cement for $2 per yard, which seems to be a very reason­ able price. We cannot afford to let the square remain in its present condition. A great iniiu once rose up and remarked that all men were 1’ars. Perhaps he was right, or at least thought he was right. Lyiffg is an art with some-folks while others lie only when they think it is ab­ solutely necessary, and we believe there are some folks who don’t lie at all, or don’t mean to, at least. There are liars in all professions:— ouce in a while you find a lawyer who will lie, and on rare occasions you will stumble ou a preacher who will Jie. It has eveu been ru­ mored that on rare occasions a few editors have beeu known to handle the truth rather carelessly. It is a mighty bad habit and one that should be cut out. Telling lies to get out of trouble or to get other folks into trouble seem to be the most popular variety iu this section. The missing link connecting De­ pot street with the State highway on the square-is still missing and it seems at this writing that it is go­ ing to reinaiu missing for some time to come uuless the town and county cOmuiissiouers can get to­ gether. and quit squabbling over the matter, -The Record man had an interview wiwiV the', chairman of the. board' bf county commissioners a few days ago in regard to the mat­ ter. Mr. Deaituou says the coun­ ty commissioners are willing to pay Inlf the costs of ^connecting this link, but ar<* not willing to pay all the costs. If we understand the matter, the public square is under the coutrol of the town of­ ficials. It is said that the town board puts a license 011 persous who use the square for selling barbecue, Farmers Picnic In Iredell.

Salinas, Calif.—Land forces—Cav-. ilrymen from the Monterey presidio and citizens from adjacent to MoSs Landing, near here.—joined hands to run down belligerent hijackers who killed one member of a posse, includ­ ing two peace officers and drove coun­ ty and State police -to cover by fire from a machine gun. At sea, coast guard vessels were warned to guard against any attem pts on the part of the hijackers to use the sea as an avenue of escape when they are forced from their inland re­ treat by Federal and civil forces. The fight came with dramatic sud­ denness. The hijackers had gathered at an unfrequented spot on the shore of Monterey Bay to intercept an anti­ cipated landing of a rum cargo. A posse started out in response to a plea for help from Harry Livingston, a State traffic officer, who had driven a shot-shattered automobile in W atson­ ville, near here. As they approached Moss Landing they , were suddenly sur­ rounded by a number of men and their only warning was the terse order “shoot ’em" after they had establish­ ed their identification for the hijack­ ers. N. H. Rader, a mer-chant of Sa­ linas, pressed into service by Sheriff W. A. Oyer,- was killed. The rum runners reported off shore made no attem pt to land their cargo. Sheriff Oyer is in a hospital here with a badly shattered knee, and Harry Livingston, a state traffic offi­ cer, who made the appeal to the sher­ iff, is the third man injured. Two major encounters in the dark were reported, the hijackers -assuming the offensive in both. Lightning Kllis Two Men. Albemarle, N. C.—Two strange men while walking along the highway at Locust were killedj instantly by light­ ning. A lady living near the scene of dath was standing on the pofch at her home and saw the bolt of lightning strike the' men and saw them fall. For several minutes fire was seen to burn the clothes, and body of the men. Some of the people in the immediate vicinity of the death spot notified Cor­ oner T. F. Morgan and he rushed to the ,scene and brought the bodies to his undertaking parlor in Albemarle. One of the men was identified by papers in his pocket, his name being Thomas Carl Burns, of Battery C, Fifth Field artillery, of Camp Bragg. Mr. Morgan got in touch with General Bowley of Camp Bragg during the night, and the general ordered that the body of Burns be prepared for burial. Bums carried a number of papers and letters, and a picture of himself. Among the papers found on Burns was two honorable discharges from the United States arm y and a reenlistment dated April 15, 1925, at Fort Bragg. A letter from his sister, Mrs. R. L.. Walker, of 1629 Quarry street, Char­ leston, W est Virginia, was on his per­ son. The other man Is still unidenti­ fied. H. A. Dowell-Killed in Accident. Raleigh. N. G—Horce A. Dowell, of Richmond, Va., formerly of Raleigh, is dead as a result of an automobile acci­ dent near Gibsonville,.

The party had been to Charlotte to celebrate the 74th birthday of Mr. Dowell’s mother. Mr. and Mrs. Dowell -moved from Raleigh to Richmond about seven years ago. Mr Dowell was in the In­ surance business there and Mrs. Dow­ ell became prominently identified m musical circles, being one of the mem­ bers of the quartet choir of the First Baptist church.'

Washington.—Federal internal rev­ enue for the fiscal year 1925 was re­ duced only $212,168,469 from the fiscal year 1924 despite sharp cuts made by the last revenue law in income and other tax rates. Total tax receipts for the fiscal year 1925, which ended June '30, were an­ nounced as $2,784,010,847, of which $1,- 761,681,$41 from the direct assessment on incomes and $822,329,206 was from the miscellaneous sources upon which the federal treasury draws. In the fiscal year 1924 the income taxes yield­ ed $1,841,759,316 and miscellaneous $954,419,940. While the present tax law was fully productive only half of the fiscal year, it gave evidence which treasury offi­ cials said confirmed their belief that lowered rates would increase the total receipts. The important reductions in the income levies caused a shinkage of only $80,077,675 in this item of gov­ ernment revenue, and officials study­ ing the question therefore regard it as unlikely that the law, which was de­ signed as a whole to reduce the tax burden by $400,000,000 really will ac­ complish that purpose. They are convinced that reduced rates have opened up new channels of income and provided encourage­ ment to moneyed interests to place their funds in productive enterprises. The bureau’s figures were calculat­ ed on the basis of telegraphjc reports from internal revenue collectors and were subject to change, but. officials believed the alteraton would be incon­ sequential. No attempt was made to separate the figures according to sources further than the two great classes of revenue upon which the government depends for most of its running expenses.

M PBOBES INDUSTRY FEDERAL TRADE COMMISSION MAKES REPORT ON AN­ THRACITE. Washington. — Reestablishment of more effective competition in the an­ thracite Industry, so the present gen­ eration may have an adequate supply at reasonable cost, has been recom­ mended to congress by the federal trade commission, in a report on pre­ mium prices of anthracite. The report, made public, declared that complete restoration of competi­ tion in the industry was not only prac­ ticable but preferable to price regula­ tion, often advocated with respect to anthracite industry. The report set out In detail the “large degree of success which has accompanied the persistent efforts of the department of justice to disinte­ grate the anthracite combination,” suggested additional steps, which would apparently tend to restore the industry to a normal competitive basis and ■ recommended measures designed to aid in preventing the recurrence of high premium prices in times of actual or anticipated shortages. • “The greatest obstacle to intelligent action on the part of the public and the/ government in the frequently re­ curring emergencies in the coal trade," said the report, “is the lack of adequate current information particu­ larly with regard to prices, cost3 of production and profits. The premium prices of 1923 were the result of an anticipated shortage and a panic de­ mand due largely to general ignorance of the' real conditions. This led the commission to believe that if the m atter was within the leg­ islative power of congress somo fed­ eral agency should be directed to as­ semble and publish current data on production, prices, costs and profits. The commission found that 70 per cent of the 88,000,000 tons of anthra-. cite produced annually was mined by either large companies, which are or recently have been owned or closely affiliated with the railroads tapping the ‘coal fields, while remaining 30 per cent was produced by 100 inde­ pendent companies.

For years they have held the floor and wiggled their ears—those who could—for the edification and amuse­ ment of their friends. Now there may be .some girls who will discover that they too can wiggle their ears. It pay be that a girl's ability will eventually be judged, not by the “shell- pink” quality of her ear, not by its delicate contour but rather by expres­ siveness. Facial expressions may lose their interest and attention be con­ fined to the ear. When intentness is to be registered, let the ear be perked; lassitude, and it will droop languidly against the head. .

Chicago Boy Remarkable Sculptor Nathan Robert Ballantlne, twelve- year-old Chicago schoolboy, ha:s re­ ceived a letter from President and Mrs. Cooiidge complimenting him on his achievement as a sculptor. The lad also writes short stories, draws ckrtoons dnd-is a clever musician,He is working on a bust of the President, as to particles of smoke! It strikes the navigator blind. True, he has his charts and instru­ ments. But what good are these if he cannot see the ocean around him or the sky above? ' His only course is to steam forward by what- Is called “dead reckoning.” He knows his location when the fog drops, knows the direction he Is go­ ing and the speed at which his ship is traveling. ^ Recall La Honda Disaster.. Armed with this knowledge, he can figure his position on the chart—ap­ proximately — as his ship plows through the waves. This enables him to avoid rocks and reefs—sometimes. Sometimes dead reckoning goes wrong. The La Honda disaster, off thje Cali­ fornia coast, furnished terrible proof of this. Seven destroyers of the battle fleet were traveling through fog at a speed of 20 knots. Their object was to turn In to shore, but a series of jagged reefs had first to be passed. Dead reckoning fold the commander of the first-destroyer that the place to turn had been reached. He changed his course, the others following In line. Suddenly the roar of breakers was heard. The destroyers tried to swerve, to reverse. Too late—their speed was too great One aft'er the other the seven ships piled up on the jagged rocks. The commander’s dead reckon­ ing had been wrong—and fog collect­ ed another toll. Study Cottrell Principle. Naval scientists are now trying to combat--fog by figuring out a suitable modification of “Cottrell’s Precipita­ tion.” The original purpose of the precipi­ tator was to “lay” smoke and fumes "belched from factories and' furnaces, and thus prevent their spread. The precipitator, named for its in­ ventor, Dr. F. G. Cottrell, is a device for making tiny panicles in the air collect into larger masses. Power­ ful electric currents are used. When the particles form In larger bodies they drop to the ground. The naval Investigators have hopes that the precipitator principle can be used to dispel fog off a ship's bows. With Chls In view they are studying the composition of fog, trying to figure out a modification of Cottrell’s device that will apply, to its particles as well IOLL OFF USELESS WILD HORSES TO MAKE HOG FEED Stockmen Favor New, Plan as Solu­ tion of Range Problem In East, ern Washington. ' Olympia, Wash.—The apparent suc­ cess of an experiment In converting horse flesh into hog feed .has given rise to the hope among eastern Wash-. Ington stocknVen that a practical means has at last bpen found to rid Washington ranges <if thousands of worthless wild horses, declares Harold Dobyns, field leader for the biological survey, w ho returned recently from a coyote hunting trip In Bentot^i county. Cattle men and wool growers have long considered the horses a menace to the live stock industry, since the animals, described locally as “ knot- head Gayusesi’* ' place an-added burden on the none too-abundant range. In recent months, Mr. Dobyns said, an enterprising Individual bas estab­ lished a slaughter-house and hog-feed- Inf plant at Plymouth, on the south­ ern border of the Horse Heaven coun­ try, long famous as its name implies as a horse range. The horses are' pur­ chased at ah average price of about $3 a head, which while low, enables the owners of the long-neglected ponies to realize a profit by rounding up their otherwise valueless animals, and the supply has so far kept pace with the deinand. The slaughter-house Is modem In every respect, Mr. Dobyns said, and none of the carcass Is wasted. The flesh Is cooked with corn and other cereals for hog feed, and hides bring about $2 each, or nearly the cost of the horse, while the bones are dis­ posed of to fertilizer plants at a price said to average $15 a ton. The hogs are shipped In, fattened and then re- shipped to the m arkets:;■ Approxii mately 600 hogs are fed at a time, while there Is always a supply of horses awaiting slaughter In the cor­ rals. When the supply of cheap horse flesh Is exhausted at Plymouth, the slaughter-house will be dismantled • and moved to other fields. ,• \ ■ ^Foiled by Pork Boston--A barrage of salt pork stopped an attempt to rob the John T.

Then—a folded paper which caused Bart Rogers’ heart to thump. He brought it forth and read it, line after line—tlie final blow. It was the will. “Guess that was about the last trip your father made’ In here—about a year ago—the day he put that will in the box,” came from one side, and Bsrt looked down into fee features of tlie clerk, forgotten for the moment. “Yes." Rogers turned toward him rather curiously. The clerk bobbed his head. “He showed it to me that day—he Ihought it was a great joke.” “Joke! On whom?” “I don't know. He didn't mention ac.v names—he just said that a fellow tad played the fool and he let him go ahead, tlat he never liked him, any- ffav.” "Be didn. say what the deal was?” Kogers was like a man hearing • his death sentence. “So, he didn’t—except that it was something about some kind of rights;" Bart Rogers did not answer. He re­ placed the document in the box, and turned his key in unison with the one in the liiinds of the clerk. Then silent­ ly. admitting defeat, he walked slow- ’ out of Uie bank. He had dreamed vaguely of finding Mother will in tlie safety box, or per- haps some explanation of the docu­ ment wliieh had been read to him the tnSht before.

"What’d you like to”have me from?” he queried. “Since the time that M. P. dogged me back up the harbor at Brest I’ve been in everything that ever looked like an outfit” “I know. But your original outfit?” “Oh, that?” Bnd Tarko untangled himself to his full height and beamed genially down upon Rogers. “The real one, huh?

I just came in on that special.” He nodded down the street. “Queer-looking outfit,” asserted Bart noticing the vanguard of a mot­ ley mob. ' ' “Queer?” Bud Tarko jabbed him In the ribs. “Worse’n that, Buddy. Guess I was the only honest man on the train. Say, who's Franniston here?” “Franniston?” Rogers asked the question with a sudden interest. “He’s a sort of land agent and politician. Ran for mayor at the election a few days ago and got beat. Why?” “Just heard bis name on the train. Everybody on it seemed to think that if he could hook up with Franniston, everything’d be gravy. Guess I’ll start looking for him myself, if you won’t jar loose with any info about that Legion post.“I forgot that.” Then Bart shook his head. “But I can’t help. you. There isn’t any Legion post in town.” * “No Legion post?” The human fence rail doubled again and a long finger poked Bart Rogers in the chest. “Do you mean to stand there and tell me that there ain’t a Legion post in this town? If there ain’t, why isn’t there?” “Because there aren’t enough vet­ erans to support one,” answered Bart. “Well, wjiere can I eat?” asked the lengthy Tarko.Bart pointed up the street; then, as Bud Tarko strung himself out along the sidewalk toward the restaurant, Rogers watched after him with finter- estT There- was something likable about the elongated, freckled man. something wholesome, something worthwhile and companionable. Bart then moved slowly down ■ the sidewalk, brushing past men with heavy satchels; others with canvas bags on their shoulders; women In loud raiment A hazy idea was In his mind-he had sought to the 'ast mo- ment to doubt the word of Bull Franniston .and of Lawyer Leon Bar­ rows. He had failed, and through some sense of justice, he felt that it was necessary to tell them so. With this thought he ma.de his way up the broad, wooden staircase to tlie office of Leort Barrows, there to taw* upon the door and await an answer in vain. Evidently Ihe attorney already had departed for Mannington to pro­ bate the will an* somewhat unwilling ly, Bart turned down the street to- •ward the ramshackle, two-story build­ ing which boused the office of “Bull’ Franniston. He mounted the stairway, only to halt as he circled the banister and started toward the grimy door of the little office. Voices were coming from within—the voices of two men, “Bull” and Old Jim. The voice of the latter was pleading. “Bull,” lie was saying, “you’re going too far. I’ve ,stood to see you beat her, I’ve stood to see you mistreat her, Tve stood for pretty near everything in the world, figuring that the worst you could do would be better than what would happen if I’d ever force you to come out in the open, and. lay your cards on the. table. But—” “Wait just a minute, Jim!” The rumbling voice of the other man had cut in sneeringly. “You’re always talking about what I’ve got up my sleeve. Have I ever told you that I knew anything about yon? Or what—” "No, but you “know that I know it— you don't have to tell me that the name of Leon Barrows is a fake name: Or that what you’re always jso care­ ful to keep locked up in that safe isn’t what—what I think it is!” “You’d better be quiet, Jim,!’ an­ swered Franniston,^ There was a queer, implied threat In the voice—and one which met with in­ stant response. / “I-—I didn’t mean It, ‘Bull’” "The old pleading had returned. “But, G—d, ‘Bull’—just think, how It would be if you were in my shoes! Think how you’d suffer if you saw some one throwing her directly in the path of gamblers and the sort of women that are flooding in here' now I” “They’re my friends.. I’m looking to them for my living.” “That’s no reason you should make Anita associate with them.” “Isn't it? If they’re my friends, they’ve got to be her friends." “I hate to think it ‘Bull,’” an­ swered jim. “I—I don’t know which would be worse, for her to have to live in this atmosphere or—or tlie oth­ er one that she’d be up against if—If I’d have to come out in the open.” “Suit yourself.” The announcement had a sneer in it. “Do what you please about that. In the meanwhile, get out! I’ve got work to look after." The last announcement meant dis­ covery for Bart Rogers If he lingered. Hurriedly he turned for the staircase, and was far down the street when! JooIcing over his shoulder, he saw the bent form of Old Jim leave the build­ ing. •. Bart’s heart was thumping strangely. Again had he come face to face with the mystery in the lives of “Buy” Franniston, his daughter and Old Jim. Suddenly Bart Rogers-stopped short. If it was certain that Franniston was to be the king of the gambling element and the dance halls, it was certain also that “Bull” Franniston did not care what became of his own daugh­ ter. “Not if I can' stop it!” he thought grimly. “I may be one man against a multitude, but I’ll make the fight.” He wheeled suddenly and hurried up the street toward the wide, ram­ bling home of Tom Jordan, mayor- elect. “Mr. Jordan,” he said, when the ge­ nial old ex-cattleman had answered his ring at the bell, “you offered me a job a couple of days ago.” . “That’s what I did, boy.” “Things have changed a good deal since then. ‘ I just wanted to. ask one question: “Have you any objections to a clean town?” “Objections ?” The Big man chuckled. “Lord, no! I want It clean. Al­ though—” and he rubbed his chin as he looked down toward the main street, with its tents, its crowds, its covered wagons and dust-caked auto­ mobiles, its flamboyant signs adver­ tising this, that and the other mush­ room stock—“it looks like an awfui lot of polishin’ ’II have t’.be done to ever make this place shine again.” ‘‘Maybe so.” Bart Rogers patted a fist into an open palm. “You never can tell about those things until- you try.

Trouble? « (TO BE CONTINUED.) Preserved Charter The Charter oak Is a tree famous in American history. It stood In Hart­ ford, Conn., and derived its name from th e following circumstance: In 1687, Sir Edmund Andres, the royal; governor, appeared at Hartford and. demanded the charter of the colony, in the name of James II of England. While the as­ sembly, in session at Hartford, was considering the governor's request, the lights were suddenly extinguished; and, In the darkness and confusion that ensued, the charter was snatched from tlie table by a patriot Capt. Wil- liaip W adsworth, and secreted In the hollow of an oak tree. This tree, which was ever after known, as the Charter oak, was carefully preserved nntll~1856, when It was destroyed In a violent storm. The charter was re-' new ed when WUliam and Mary as­ cended the. throne In IflSk--Kansaa City Times.

New York.—A federal agent’s ear for music was credited by his supe­ riors for their success In trailing and arresting a man anp a woman charged with making counterfeit ten-dollar and five-dollar notes. Tlie agent, according to Joseph A, Palma, chief agent^n charge of the counterfeit squad of we Treasury department picked up Anatches of a Russian folk-song whis­ tled by the man when he was admit­ ted by the. woman to the alleged coun­ terfeiting den. The agent whistled the tune so skillfully that It gained him admittance and made possible the ar­rests. The defendants described themselves as Joseph Radchis, twenty-seven years old, and Anna Simon, twenty-eight years old, both of Brooklyn. The woman said that she was engaged In welfare work with an organization which she refused to name. Sh^ ex­ plained that her work was among the thousands of Russian refugees who have arrived In the United States in recent years. Perfect Reproductions.

National bank, according to Mr. Pal­ ma, who described them as the most perfect reproductions he had seen In all his experience with counterfeiters. In Radchis’ apartment the agents con­ fiscated some counterfeit plates and a large quantity of silk fiber paper, ap­ parently the same as used by the Unit­ ed States government in making gen­ uine bank notes. The search for counterfeiters and tbelr plant began several months agp, according to Mr. Palma, after some of the spurious notes were placed In circulation in Newark. Storekeepers In Nfewark first complained of 'being victimized, and then came complaints from storekeepers In Brooklyn. The Investigation led to Radchis and it Was learned that be weTit every day to the two-room second-floor apartment occu­ pied by the woman. Following Radchis closely, an agent heard him whistle a Russian folksong _as be entered the building, passed through tlie hallway and up the stairs to the woman’s apartm ent Still whis­ tling the folksong, Radchis was ad­ mitted after be had rapped in a certain manner on the deor, Mr. Palma said. The agent, .whose identity was not dis­ closed by" Mr. Palma, went to the woman’s apartment at five o’clock in the afternoon, the hoar when it was customary' for Radchis to go 'there, and, whistling the song he had heara and giving the proper rap on the door, he was admitted. Another agent fol­ lowed him. Found Complete Plant. According to Mr. Palma, the woman tried to shut the door when she saw a stranger there, but the agent was too quick for her. In the apartment, ac­ cording to Mr. Palma, the .agents found a complete- counterfeiting plant includ­ ing photographic outfit dyes, chemi­ cals and otlier materials used in re­ producing spurious bank notes. Mr. Palma said that the man and woman told him they both came from Lithuania and that Radchis said he bad frequented the New York library where he obtained technique books which he studied to improve his tech­ nique as a photo engraver. Radchis, he said, told him be was a graduate of Dorgoll college In Russia.

G Misbranded Seed on Open Market In Many Cases Samples Found to Be Composed of Foreign Varieties. (Prepared by 'he Unltad States Department of Agriculture.) Much of the seed of grasses, clover, alfalfa, and Iawa grass offered for sale on the open market annually is found to be misbranded or adulterated. For the protection of farmers and other seed users the United States Depart­ ment of Agriculture maintains seed testing laboratories at four state agri­ cultural stations which, In co-operation with the laboratory at Washington, D. O., test samples of seeds mailed In by farmers and others, and makes a re­ port on the exact contents of the sam­ ple. Much Adulteration. During last year 536 samples of seed sold as Kentucky bluegrass were re­ ceived by mail and 05 lots of seed were purchased by the Washington labora­ tory for testing purposes. In many cases these samples were found to be composed of a higher percentage of Canada bluegrass seed than any other seed. Some samples of supposedly Kentucky bluegrass seed contained as little as I or 2 per cent of that seed, the balance being Canada bluegrass and other seeds, dirt and chaff. In fact one sample contained but seven­ teen hundredths per cent of Kentucky bluegrass. The balance of the lot. was- 87.31 per cent Canada bluegrass, 4.70 per cent other seeds and 7.82 per cent dirt and chaff. The sample containing the highest percentage of Kentucky bluegrass seed which was 67.47 per cent, contained 8.01 per cent of other seeds (mostly redtop) and 24.52 per cent dirt ,and chaff. These samples represented the offer­ ing of 15 different seed dealers. In accordance with the authority given in the act of congress making appropria­ tions for the United States Depart­ ment of Agriculture the names of these dealers and the results of the tests of the seed samples have been published In the department regulatory announce­ ment. Location of Laboratories. The bureau of plant Industry will continue to examine and report prompt­ ly as to the presence of adulterants and dodder In any sample of seed sub­ mitted for that purpose. According to the location of the sender these sam­ ples may be submitted to the seed- testing laboratory at Washington, D. C., or to any of the following labora­ tories maintained through the co-op­ eration of this department: Co-opera­ tive Seed-Testing Laboratory, Cali­ fornia State Department of Agricul­ ture, Sacramento, Cal.; Co-Operative Seed-Testing Laboratory, Oregon Agri­ cultural College.

' Use Proper Sprays to Save Grape Crop Guard AgainstSpeckingand Rotting Before Maturity. It Is not unusual for a third or more of the crop of bunch grapes to be de­ stroyed by specking and' rotting 6 short while before maturity. The way to prevent this heavy loss is to spray ■ with the bordeaui mix­ ture,, which may be prepared In large or small quantities In the proportion of three pounds of bluestone and four pounds of stone lime to 50 gallons of water. “Bunch grapes are more seriously affected by attacks of black rot and anthracnose than are the Muscadine and Scuppernong varieties, yet many demonstrations have proven that by proper spraying these diseases may be controlled," says G. W. Fant, extension plant disease specialist at the North Carolina State college. “We recom­ mend the bordeaux mixture.' If 50 gallons of spray are needed, dissolve ithe three pounds of bluestone In 25 gallons of water. Slake four pounds of stone lime In a separate container, slowly, with water, and when the slaking has ceased, dilute with water to make 25 gallons and strain. Pour the two solutions together, simul­ taneously, into the spray tank while stirring thoroughly. One pound of lead arsenate powder Is added to each 50 CHOOSE COLORS TO SUIT COMPLEXION gallons for the control of insects. The spray is then ready to apply.” Mr. Fant states that in order to pro­ tect the grapes as they develop, tlfe spray should be applied every two weeks and the work needs to Ce thor­ oughly done. Chicks Should Have Good Care During the Summer Chicks raised to the point where they forage for themselves are not necessarily Insured of being future profitable members of the laying flock. lSiey must have some care during the entire summer. The Illinois Agricultural college has prepared a number of pointed sug­ gestions on chick raising. A few of the ideas that apply to the larger chickens are as follows: A growing mash, fed throughout the summer, balances the grain ration and keeps the chicks growing without any setbacks. Early roosting keeps the chicks from crowding into the corners. Removing the cockerels at broiler age gives the pullets more room to grow and develop. Birds of both sexes will grow better when separated. Heavy feeding before the pullets are placed In winter quarters gets them In shape for laying during the winter. Careful culling before the pullets go into winter, quarters eliminates many unprofitable Birds. Growing strong, healthy chicks re­ quires tlie constant, careful attention of the farmer or his wife. Ten Per Cent Gain for Capons Is About Right Extreme claims concerning the gains made by capons are not justified, ac­ cording to 6. L. Stevenson of the South Dakota Agricultural college. Careful comparisons have been made at the ex­ periment station of that state which show that a 10 per cent gain Is about all that can be expected. Lighter breeds such as leghorns did not gain at all. “Since chicks hatch late on the farm and since there is usually plenty of feed, caponlzlng will probably pay the farmer,” says Stevenson. The birds should bp caponized when- developing wattles and combs, or In- the medium- weight breeds when they weigh two pounds. Two weeks before marketing, Steven­ son advises that the capons be put In close quarters ancb fed on fattening rations, such as milk, commeal, bran, tankage, etc. Any combination like com and milk is very good. During the time previous to these two weeks, the capons can be fed on com and can be allowed to run with the pullets. In dressing capons for market, only the soft feathers need be removed. The coarse feathers on the wings, tail, etc., may be left on. The capon must be dry picked. If a good price is ex­ pected. As capon feathers, especially white ones, are In demand' and will bring from 85 to 90 cents per pound, the farmer can a (fori to keep them clean and dry and the colors unmlxed, ac­ cording to Stevenson. Sudan Grass Found Good to Reinforce Pastures Pastures have been hard hit by drought In many Minnesota farming. localities. Id some instances farmers have found It necessary to pasture some .of their hay land. In others, the live stock has been turned Into oat . fields. , ' • Sudan grass, Jf drilled at the rate of 30 pounds of seed to the acre, will, under ordinary growing conditions, give pasture in 40 to 50 days, says A. C. Amy of the farm crop section of the University of Minnesota Agricul­ tural college. Where soil constituents are favorable, 12 pounds of scarified sweet clover seed sown "to the acre should be inoculated. Rape makes a fine pasture for hogs and sheep. Sow four pounds to the acre. A soiling crop like com, planted from two to four Inches apart In the drill row, will ordinarily furnish good feed and help to piece out pastures later In JM season. , ‘ . Big Danger of Bloating on Wet Clover Pastures Wet clover, especially sweet clover, caused Iowa farmers heavy losses last season from bloated cattle. Fresh grass eaten rapidly is likely to ferment in the large stomach or rumen and cause bloat. Wet grass is -especially dangerous. Death occurs In thirty min­ utes to three or four hours and is due to suffocation or rupture of the stom­ ach. Dr. C. L. Rice, veterinary specialist at Iowa State college, investigated mqny of these cases. He prefers pre­ vention to cure and makes the follow­ ing suggestions: “Avoid turning cattle on clover pas­ tures while the grass is wet from rain or dew. Avoid turning cattle on fresh grass when they are hungry. Give them a fill of bluegrass or dry feed just before, turning them on clover. Driving them about for some time after turning them out will help, by keeping them from eating too fast. Even when pas­ tures are not wet, It Is poor practice to salt cattle heavily before turning them out, for they will be In danger, Ot drinking a large amount of water af­ ter taking a fill of grass, which often produces bloating.” farm HM/: Milady Should Know Limi­ tations, Prominent Art Instructor Says. The woman tfho studies her color limitations has taken th e first step toward being well dressed. She knows what colors to look for when she goes to the shop and thus uses her own time and that of the clerk to the best advantage. According to Miss Hazel Hartman, art Instructor In the Univer­ sity of Wisconsin, certain colors are especially adapted to various types of individuals. The blond with fair skin and blue eyes appears best In the “cooler colors,” such as green, blue and lav­ ender. Greens bring out the golden tint In her Jialr and the pink In her cheeks. She appears “most . like a blond" In blue, although she may wear white, pink and golden brown successfully. If her hair is slightly dark she may wear the shade of middle blue 'more becomingly than powder blue. If the skin Is not too pale, blqck is considered an ideal color for this type. The blond with medium-brown hair, imperfect skin and blue or brown eyes, may w eir the medium shades of blue, green and red, dark brown and cream white. Brunettes with fair skin may wear almost any color. The brighter shades, such a s . yellow, red apd henna are usually most becoming.-^ If the hair is dark brown instead of black, shades of orange may be worn. There is no rea­ son why a brunette with fair skin and blue eyes cannot wear shades of blue. Such shades may bring out the pink of the cheeks. Brunettes with dark hair and eyes, but imperfect or florid skin, may wear tans and browns, as well as blue-greens ’and cream or Ivory 'whites. Such a type needs to ovoid such colors as yel­ low, black and the pastel shades. If the skin is the least bit sallow, it is necessary to avoid the cooler shades, such as blue and green. Gray-halred types appear best' In Like Matching Sets With Sports Suits In a summer when white is more conspicuous than ever In smart sports clothes, hat and scarf sets are depended on to Introduce a color note in the costume or hat, blouse and scarf are made to match.

They are worked In bead and metal embroidery. On some of the new L hats they are cleverly wrought with different colored sealing wax. And we even have flowers made of feathers.

He lias with his claims shattered the old theory that the Greek-AlesandrIan translation of the Old Testament known as the Septuaginta1 is derived from original Hebrew text. He says the Septuainta Is largely a reproduc­ tion of Hebrew words written wltli Cireek letters and that as early as 20u B. C. Jewish scholars utilized Greek- Hebrew texts for tlielr translations into Greek. His claim opens up an en­ tirely new vista on old biblical litera­ ture.

Practically every mail takes to every newspaper office in the Iai d big nr little, quantities of material offered, for publication—free of charge—on almost every cniirmvable sulj'ct, except perhaps, subjects of living interest to the readers of%the paper n^-- It is .mostly what is known as pro paganda. The world war gave it its big start; when evou the big pres; associations were capture by the pro pagandists and telegraph and calde were utilized for earning propa tramJa mwfflires IflUusrriea and nr ganiz ttions of various kinds follow ed this lead and installed "pub ici’y departments that keep the mails flooded with their offerings Or ganizations by the score crowd upon one another by in offering the r stuff, and they are willing to spend thousands and millions for propa ganda,-m ist of which reaches the waste basket where it belongs. N only do they furnish typewritten ‘ copy” by the ream, but pictures clip sheets, manuscripts of speeches to be delivered two thousands miles away by somebody few people know and on a subject' perhaps fewer care less abuut. One big bank in New York City, for instance, sends to thousands of newspapers through­ out the coun'ry large mats, made and "mailed at heavy cost. Some of these contain information of value, but. they are propaganda and tl e bank is willing to pav its money in order to get its name printed. Promotion enterprises of euty kind are kind enough to i Her tl e newspapers glou ing descriptions of the things" thev want to sell, and some of tlieiu have prop iean ia no n who are expert. A few .1 tvs ago one of them sent out a Iiitle “news story” telling of an item that bad ‘ leaked out” in that, community that looked like real news, and would have heen news if the inevitable free propagranda had not been buried in ' the middle of the most interesting paragraph. Into nearly every every waste basket of the State it went. Government departments, nation­ al and state, are among the most consistent propagandists. Millions of dollars goes into ponderous docu ments offered the press and general disregarded. It is notic. able, how­ ever, that since Governor McLean put bis economy program to work that there has been a uio-t percep tible cutting down of propaganda from North Carolina state depart­ ments. And we have not noticed that the newspapers have suffered fur lack of material on this account. W heft press associations and pub- fehfcfs conventions meet now one of the paipful topics for discussion is this Hood of free stuff with which Viey have to contend. Th* average newspaper man does not want to turn down an opportunity of pro­ moting something really wur.h while, of doing community, state or national service in the most useiul WayTbiit he does object to being $rm§t.antly importuned to carry everybody's gristto mill except his awn—The Dispatch.

SOUTHERN RAILWAY SYSTEM of the celebrated Z>: ICED DRINK£ IN THE SUMMER On a \varm7and sultry sumtmer day, there Is nothing more refreshing to the mind and to liie body than an Iced drink. Of coarse, when such' drinks are being used, moderation should be practiced, because if taken In excess or too rapidly, they are liable to be injurious to the stomacb. Hjowever, when taken In a ’sensible mannjer, they are refreshing .and beneficial to the fatigued. In thfe m anufacture^ these drinks, care should be taken to aveid any combination that may be indigei4* tible or hard to assimilate. TlTe drink should be eotns^med In a slow and lei­ surely nfanner. \ The greatest' danger present InXthe use of iced danks is the one that?1 .in­ volves the use' of Ingredients that are possibly iuipudre or contaminated In any way. This 4s very liable to happen If the julcestthat are used,-are allowed to stand until they become' soured and unfit for use, or if the inflk or other ingredient used is not slirlctly' fresh.

From time immemorial almost, ! oue has been hearing of a nevj in I veiuio" f°r picking cotton but so far none have proven successful, Theodore H. Price, the New York cotton merchant, at one time bad oneoftbese inventions underway, hut as far as we know was never perfected. - Xow comes an inventor of Au- usta Ga , who claims th'at lie has at last perfected a machine that ,,-ill do the work in the cotton fields of the South. The inventor is Harrv K Gourcher and he has utilized a company to manufac­ ture the picker and it will be plac­ ed on the market in time for a try- I 0ut in the fields this fall. The picker, it is stated,' will av- I era 'e Os pounds per hour aud will ick the cotton cleaner than by I hind. It has a life of to years Lml aocoiding to its inventor will pick as much clean cotton, in a day a; lorn men or ’hands.’ The pick­ er, it was announced, will be sold for approximately £ 1 5 0 each. • The machine is run by a small storage I battery and is carried on the hand picking the cotton and couveviug it to sicks in a very light wagoii uhicli is pulled by the person who operates I lie “picker.” The liiht wagon which is pulled along the row by the person oper­ ating the "picker” is very' light in construction and has six empty canvas bags of capacity of.. 75 pounds of cotton each. When a hag is tilled it is dropped along the row. The wagon is 15 inches wide and 40 iticheS high and is so' ,light as uot to hinder operating.the cot­ ton Dicker. It is the claim of the euventor t'iat the machine, will absolutely not pick trash with the cotton. Mr. Fonrcher, according to his owiistatemeiit worked t8 years in perfecting the machine, which he says is now at the point of such perfections as to be of absolutely practical use to the fanner. ItLs expected that the expeti- uietits that will be conducted by the "picker” will lead to sales of the machine throughout the entire cotton belt that will ultimately mean the establishment of a great plant in August for their tnanufae ture. It was pointed out tnat the possibilities of the machine are un­ limited iu consideration of the great saving of labor that it repre­ sents. The fact that it does not pick trash aud is operated so hand­ ily is pointed to by the manufac turers as the means of assuring its success Since the migration to the north of so many negroes from the South the saving of the cotton crop has become a serious matter, it being impossible almost to get enough bands to go to the fields to pick the staple, ft this invention is satis­ factory and will do the work it. uieaus a practical revolution in cot­ ton farming in the South.—-Ex. , Aged Couple Marry, Isaac Caudle aged 76, of Stanly culUity, and Helen Gi d Iyl aged 68 °f Mecklenbury county, were tnar- 'ied in Charlotte Saturday.

(From Charity and Children) The liquorinterests forfeited all clainrto consideration as.legitimate' business by., their own lawlessness long years before prohibition be­ came the established policy of the country. Indeed, one of the strong est factors working for prohibition was the notorious unwillingness or inability, of saloon-keepers to obey' the laws regnlatiug the traffic. At length the people Iost patiencewith the futile.efforts to make thesaloou orderly and law-abiding and abolish­ ed it altogether. Il is worth while to recount this more or less ancient history because-we are facing the fact that prohibition itself is losing prestige with the country, for exact Iy the same reason. It seems as difficult to compel prohibition en­ forcement agents to remain within the law as it formerly was to com­ pel the saloon-keepers to remain ithiu it. Hard upon the slaught­ er upon the- public highway of a peaceable, law-abiding traveler, S lloit, came the slaughter of a yonug man in Watauga county, Leonard Triplett. The circum­ stances surrounding the latter shooting are iti dispute, but it is admitted tliat-Triplett was not run­ ning liqiior and that there.was no liquor found among the party of hich he was a member. It is clear therefore, .that the officers were in the wrong when they sto'pped and searched the cars. Their cue was to apologize and withdraw promply. Iustea.d, they lingered long enough to indulg^in an altercation which culminated in the killing of Tri­ plett. Now whatever, else it,, may Iiave accomplished, tliisaffair does not tend to heighen respect,for the prohibition law. It has exactly the opposite effect. When things of that sort-occur, prohibition suf­ fers at the the hands of its own agents, just as the liquor traffic suffered at the hands of its agents, the saloon-keepers.

Just' at the time when the boll weevil ,is whetting his bill for a raid on the cotton fields, from - the Rio Grand to the Ro'anoke the U.

About the only benefit that could accrue out of an estimate at this time of a crop barely in the first stages of growth, subject to the ravages of a pest of. proven capaci y tor destruction and to the uncer­ tainties of weather, is to those.who gamble 011 this crop. Ou the New Yofk cotton exchange, where millions upon millious of biles never-produced are also sold each year to and by thousands of men who never saw cotton grow or saw boll of it spin and woven into cloth, the estimate was greeted by drop of $2 to $5 per bale in the price. There may inleed be a big crop of cotton this year, but estimates made when the squares begiu to form are very'unreliable baromet­ ers and are certainly of no benefit o the men who grow this: cotton n-1 who should above all others tfe: entitled to a profit.—The Dispatch. up morn sued and the couple bunted up Rev.

Anoiher resolution was'intro­ duced which iirovided that the pro­ perty of Sant Johns college be con­ verted 111 0 an orphanage, "for the protection, taming and education of the indigent orphan children of this state ” The Grand lodge pas=ed favorable on, this resolution and authorized the beginning of- thii work. .

Feeble »1. its first effort- the wort was carried on uhder the cour­ ageous and patient leadership of Mr. Mills, who in the face of almost extreme hardship and want labored and toil°d. He gave himself unsel­ fishly to the work, watched its growth and progress with a jealous eye, and with an'“eye indomitable courage led the institution in its uphill struggle for existence. For eleven jears he served , as sup­ erintended and then resigned later becoming superintendent of the Baptist -orphanage at. Thoma3ville, Mr. Millswas a gifted man and posseses many admirable qualities Large in body, gruff and abrupt in manner, gigantic in heart, and soul, tend and sympathetic with all hu man suffering, he was loved arid es­ teemed by all. He was not a polish ; ed man, and marks of culture and refinement were not apparent in his general appearance. Yet he possess ed a striking personality. Mr. Miils was a well informed man and his conversations were marked with both interest and intelligence. He was an original thinker, and a man of clean vision.- It was he that, con­ ceived the idea’that Masonry should establish an orphanage ana tHus'dis- tinguish hiniself as._the founder of orphanage work in North Carolina lina, and among the first to begin this-work in the south. Upon him' fell the almost impossible task of demonstrating the workableness of hi3 idea, and of making his new ex­ periment a success. Proof-of his unlimited capacity for work was clearly shown in his management of the orphanage in its early infancy His aggressive, fightiiing spirit, his uosbakenl faith ii providence, his love for hia fe'llownianv are alone responsihle for whatever success he achieved. Mr. Mills possessed no special gifts as an executive- and knew little about1 the handling, of financial matters; yet the orphanage grew Steadily and' assumed larger proportions under his faitbfull guid­ ance.

Wameg", -Kamfas, a town of 1700 answer that question in a monumen­ tal-achievement. It was just an ordinary country town for many years. But sudden­ ly a wave of community spirit swept over the place, ai d as a result it stand out today as one of the-unique towns in the entire nation. Tiiis is the job that community spirit did It created a seventeen acre park, a center of the social life of an entire county. And that part has made Wamego the most attrac­ tive towns to fanners within driving distance. They drive into the com­ munity because of the pleasant and comfortable facilities offered by the park. Incidentlly they do their ading there, improve its business . Jife. and its euen better town as the years go by as a "business center—as a market for their produce and a source of the merchandise they need. Thi3 park'includes everything im­ aginable for a swimming pool and camp grounds, to a band stand and entertainment hall.. It is crowded throughout most of . the summer with people from far and wide. It has been worth more to its con mu nity than a reasonable large indus­ try. - • And all the work required, in transforming seventeen acres of idle land into a beautiful.park was done . by volunteer labor. The people of the community got t< gather, de­ cided to give a little of their time to the upbuilding of their own home town, and as a result they have a town that is well -worth'to them' every ounce of energy expended.— Ex.

A thief is a thief no matter by what name you call him. It is reported that Cameron Morrison wants to be g .vernor a gain and may be a candidate in .1928. Well, we krov a good number of Democrats in this town who. would take special delight in soaking him should he even t;e so - foolish as to run for office again. The taxratein Davie county is high and is going higher. With ■ but few factories and mills, and no millionaires, a small 'county with nearly all the population engaged in fanning, it means that the -farm lands are paying the running ex- penses of the county. There is but one way to lower t\ie tax rate and that is to get more people to locate in the county, to get more mills and factories alid bring in more capital to iax. It is hard on the farmer when he has to pay the major partiou of the running ex penses of the counfv. So fa' as we can learn Mocksville is the only town in this section that does not sometimes make an arrest for violating the automobile laws.

C- fA T IO N E R Y - HIGH q u a l it y eg g s IN SUMMER MONTHS One of the biggest problems that faces the poultry producer is the pro­ duction of high quality 'eggs through Ilic summer months. The reason for f|,is is the heat of the summer will starr fertile eggs to incubate and there- Jiy S1IOil the quality unless special ef­ fort is taken. ^ Tiie Mggest loss can be stopped by jlic production of infertile Instead of fertile eggs. Supplementing and cor­ related with this effort to produce in­ fertile eggs is the need for careful meiiiods of collecting, storing and mar­ keting. It is a customary praetlce-for the people who are in charge of enforcing the egg-candling laws to lift, the re- I1Iiirements for candling during March !-,ml April, for tf\e reason that during !he Iieavy production season the eggs me marketed with good quality. The ,■,nil weather, plus the large supply, I10Ips to maintain the good condition of the eggs marketed during this period. Investigations show that at least t,vo-ihirds of the egg losses occur on Uie farm. The remainder i$v»n the Iiuckster wagons, in the country store, on IiOt freight and express cars jnd In improper storage. This loss has keen estimated at ?20 per farm < in Missouri, and it is doubtless as high in the other heavy poultry-producing states. No doubt the rooster is responsible for more of this loss than any other one contributing element. He ea^s high-priced feed during the summer without producing any benefit and does a great deal of harm In lowering, the quality of the eggs. The movement to cull the rooster out of the floclt is on as soon as the breeding season Is over. .T F P 11 a v I b' K P f1O R F M O O K s VH,I/Tc . N, C I1fTKe jxitcnen Cabinet <©. 1925.

Most people en- jpy a bit of sea­ sonable fruit to start the morning meal, then a dish of cereal, cooked or ready prepared; hot tyeads, waffles, toast, griddle: cakes, ,-eggs, bacon and bam are all good breakfast dlshea. A cereal which is most wholesome is the whole wheat taken right from the granary, carefully, picked over and washed, then cooked for hours until the tough outer coat of the kernel is softened. Serve with (bp milk. The children with tlieirv-sharp little teeth will learn to masticate it well and Hlte. it better and better. Heavy, hearty foods, should not be served the inactive. When after a meal, one feels,stupid and dull, it is time to fast and eat very slightly at breakfast. Baked Mackerel.—This is good pre­ pared with salt fish, but is especially delicious with fresh. If salt, soak well over night, then put to bake with a very little water to steam ; after ten minutes cover witli' cream and finish baking. New Englano Salt Cod—Cut salt fish into squares and soak over night. In the morning, drain .and rinse, cover with fresi. boiling water and -simmer until tender.

These different losses may he lowered by feeding oyster shell, by having plenty of nests, by gathering tiie eggs daily, by packing them so they will not break and eating all odd- slzed eggs at home. Bad flavors are usually caused by feeding unusual feeds or by keeping the eggs in a place where they absorb unpleasant odors. Scurvy-Preventing Feed Manufactured by Fowls It looks as if the chicken makes Its own vitamin C or the vitamin which prevents scurvy in guinea pigs and hu­ mans, according to an investigation carried on at the Purdue university sgriciiltural experiment station. It appears that chickens do not have scurvy and can thrive for long periods on feeds that do not have,the scurvy- preventing vitamin. Mature cockerels were given a ration containing none t of this vitamin for over three months. Their livers and kidneys were then fed In small amounts to guinea pigs suffer lag from scurvy brought on by a lack of a vitamin-preventing scurvy. In about two weeks’ time the guinea pigs were cured of scurvy by the livers and kidneys of these cockerels which had received none of Jhc- scurvy-preventing vilamin, thus indicating that the vita­ min was manufactured by some means-1 take from the fire and add the currant In the body of the chicken. This suggests that the chicken can make this vitamin from sources not available to the guinea pig or to a per­ son and that the Iaeb of this vitamin In the diet of the chicken apparently does no damage. In practical poultry feeding, therefore, little attention need be paid to supplying the vitamin which prevents scurvy, although other vita­ mins are absolutely necessary and must he provided by the feeds given.

The fol­ lowing are choice recipes which will add variety to those already cher­ ished: Almond Cake.—Cream one-third of a cupful of butter, add one cupful of sugar, one-fourth cup­ ful of milk, the yolks of six eggs well beaten, and ' one cupful of flour sifted with one teaspoonful of baking pow­ der. Flavor with the grated rind of a lemon. Beat the whites of the eggs until stiff, add one cupful of sugar and one cupful of chopped almonds. PUt on top of the cake when it is ready" to go into the oven. Bake in a slow oven. This may be baked in layers and put together with whipped cream, making a very delicious cake. Currant Ice.—Take three cupfuls of currant juice, two capfuls of sugar, and one cupful of water. Cook the su­ gar and water till it spins a thread. juice. Chill in a freezer and freeze. When nearly frozen add the whites of two eggs beaten to a stiff froth with two tablespoonfuls of sugar. Freeze until firm, pack and let stand to ripen. When baking apples, vary the flavor by adding grated orange or lemon peel, rubbing a ,loaf of sugar over the fruit to get the flavor. Insert the sugar in. the cavity. . Raisins and figs are de­ licious stufflng for baked apples. Sponge Cake--Beat the yolks of six. eggs until thick, add one cupful of sugar gradually and continue- beat­ ing; add one tablespoonful of lemon juice, the grated-rind• of--a lemon and Hie whites of the eggs beaten stiff. When the whites are partially mixed add one cupful of flour and a little salt. Bake one hour in an angel food pan. Rochester Chocolate Cake.—Cream one-fourth of a cupful of butter, add one cupful of sugar gradually, and then add two squares of melted Chocov late, two well-beaten eggs, one-half cupful o f milk one and one-third cup­ fuls of flour mixed and sifted with three teaspoonfuls iof baking powder, and one-half teaspoonful of salt. Beat well; add one teaspoonful of vanilla and bake in a moderate oven forty- five-minutes. Cover with: Ice Cream Frosting.—Boll two cup­ fuls of sugar and six tablespoonfuls of water to a thread. Pour the sirup gradually over two well-beaten egg whites, beat until thick, flavor with vanilla and spread over the cake. One cupful of sugar, one cupful o! s„tir cream and one cupful of nuts, adding the nuts after the sugar an ’ cream Ure cooked until thick, makes a most delicious, cake filling. - A sparagus which seems too tough to cook may often be peeled and then makes a fcsty dish. lltu A Th ** TOGGED IN BLACK PARIS FINERY AND WHITE; FOR LITTLE FOLKS TXTOMEN may .have been more vw beautifully clad than they are this summer—in . some prehistoric age, or some unrecorded and wholly forgotten era—they may-, have -been. Biit mankind Is unanimously inclined to gjve them a vote- of confidence, In case they choose to challenge all other periods of recorded history, to com­ parisons. The clothes of today are is the end of a perfect ensemble and Its owner may go on her way entirely satisfied with It.

Upon rare4 occasions, even the small boy must be ceremoniously clothed— so let us consider how the French dis* % t. DESIGNED FOR MIDSUMMER WEAR simple, 4 comfortable, elegant and, above all, beautiful, and, by w ay of -proof, the costume pictured above, de­ signed for midsummer4 wear, is offered as ‘‘exhibit A.” Nothing Snore unusual than black, crepe-back satin and white crepe de chine, which can be purchased any­ where, are required for this) fine bit of artistry in dressmaking and one of the’ most gratifying things about pres­ ent-day modes and materials is that anyone who chooses , may have them. It takes very little fabric to make a frock and styles are not difficult for the home dressmaker to-copy. /The model pictured is a straightline p at­ tern varied by plaited godets set in at each side at the hipline of the skirt portion.'4 This gives the dress the fashionable flare besides added grace of line and freedom In walking. . The undersleeves and shirt-bosom front of the crepe de chine- are prettily adorned with small, rak-leaf design, cut from the black satin and outlined with narrow black braid. The neck finish is unique and beautiful. Long ties made of satin are knotted at the pose of an uncomfortable half hour or so for the youngsters—and have it over with. Afterward time can be more profitably given to the excellent models designed for little girls. \ At the left of the picture nothing less magnificent than marine blue satin makes the straight coat and very short pants with a vest in white with small red buttons. The smaller boy at the right is almost more resplendent in a suit of red.crepe, with jabot at the neck and frills in the sleeves, of fine white batiste, In little girls’ summer clothes Paris reveajs its partiality for the ensemble idea and presents pretty frocks of sheer materials, very simply made and adorned with drawn work. .These frocks have, usually, short yokes and are sleeveless. The dresses, gathered to-the yokes, are very short and have narrow hems; it is just above these hems and on the yokes, that the drawn work appears, in different designs. A small hat to match has the same sort of adornment. Pastel colored voiles offer about the best medium for frocks of this kind. A touch of colorful em- IAre You This Man?

Both times the girl had appeared frightened, excited, nervous. As for Old Jim, his lips were white, his features haggard, while In his eyes was the look of a haunted man about to gaze upon a ghost he had feared for years. What it all meant, other than what he had heard a week before In the hallway outside Frannlston’s office, Bart could not tell. But this he knew—tragedy was stalk­ ing In the footsteps of a girl and a prematurely aged nhm. Frannlston himself? Bart had seen him often, making his way from one dance hall to another, frotn the soft-, drink emporiums and along the snack stands. He seemed to be known ev­ erywhere—it was as though an army had gathered and then waited ,for the appearance of its general. That army, Bart knew, he must fight, now that he had taken office. More, he felt sure that the moment he began his battle, he also would be forced into active campaign with the man who possessed power sufficient to make him the leader of them all—“Bull" Frannlston. But Bart Rogers had given himself plenty of time In which to think it over. He had made his determination, and now that the time had come, he was ready to see it through. A mo­ ment of hesitation, and then, delib­ erately he started up the street to the CHAPTER VI The New Marshal It was seven days later that Bart Rogers stopped short as he left the tiny building which had served for years as Bellaine’s combination' city hall, Jail and “police department.” He had just received the administration of his oath of office, and Bart Rogers could not evade the realization of the toughness of ids job. From a village of hundreds, Bellaine had metamorphosed to a mushroom of thousands. Canvas dance halls and “soft drink” emporiums, where the softest thing served was three-day-old “mountain dew,” were on nearly every street corner. Kalsomined women leered and smirked in the crowds of the street—the world had turned new and raw and unwholesome with the influx of a nation's oifal, swooping down upon a place that oil had turned Into a new frontier and where the mob, by its strength, might rule. Pitted against this was the feverish activity, of another set of boomers— the legitimate followers of the gusher; men in corduroy clothing and high- topped boots, who went about their business in a quiet, orderly, deter­ mined manner; men who seemed never to see the smiles of the women; or the beckoning banners of .the soft- drink parlors. Young men, old men, they hurried about, their clothing and shoes splashed with oil from their visits to the discovery well; all intent upon their work, all seeking to cram a life­ time into 24 hours that they, too, might be the persons to aid in a new flow of the black liquid, the first to carry the news of another gusher. Already just outside the village limits, the first of a forest of derricks had appeared, while, under hard-work­ ing, shouting foremen, the work of installing machinery and the prepara­ tions for drilling were hurriedly under way. IYhistles tooted from steaming boilers. Sledges clanged against steel. The prophecy of a bedlam had come’ true. And this was the thing which Bart Rogers had taken upon his shoul­ ders—to .recreate into an orderly, hard-working, law-abiding town. Now as he looked at it, he realized in a small measure his rashness, and the hopelessness of his task. The city ordinances—and he had studied them with fervent hope—gave to him one paid,deputy, no more. Not that he did hot intend to try. Bart Rogers was bitter with the bitter­ ness of enmity and of indignation. In. the week which had passed, he had learned many things, the first of which was that Leop Barrows, thin, damp-clothed, lean-faced Leon Bar­ rows, was far more' interested in the oil rights of the Rogers farm than “Bull” Franniston. To Bart Rogers this could mean but one thing—that it had not been “Bull” who had prof­ ited by the will of a deacPman, but the lawyer who had drawn that wili, who perhaps had suggested the bar­ gain to Franklin Rogers, and who had seen ”to’ it that the whole tricky Ar- , rangement had gone through • to the finish. / ” denly serious. “You're on the wrong guy, honest. Fm fixed, see? \ Every­ thing’s all right, with me—I’m a right gay, I’ve put in my ante. Don’t crab the Rarty.on me here. I’m—’* , “Fixed? Oh, are you? Well, you fixed with the wrong person—thac stuff doesn’t go! Step fast or—’’ • 'iPete!" The man’s voice had a new note in it, one of sudden excitement, and a hanger-on hurried to his side. “There’s something wrong here. This guy needs showin’ where to get off at. Go get Franniston—quick!” “Franniston is it?” A tliln smile appeared, on the, lips of Bart Rogers. “Well, in the meanwhile, you’ll come along with me.” A lurching push and shoving the gambler a step or two-ahead of him, he started toward-the jail. Ten min­ utes later lie bad turned the heavy key and was looking through the bars at his prisoner. Then he went to the front entrance, to await the arrival of the enemy. Nor was the, wait a long one Five minutes passed. Then the sound of steps from around the cor­ ner.

The only person I’ve ^daughters produced about 5 per cent got in there is a tin-horn three-shell more milk and about 11 per cent more worker; He’s not the boy you mean, butterfat than their dams.

But at the corner he stopped, as Bud Tarko approached. Tarko wanted to know where Bart got the marshal’s badge. Then the latter told him of his new job. “Well, that’s fine,” said Bud. “But say, now, do you need an assistant?” ’Listen!” Bart caught him by the shoulders and. drew him. down to speaking distance, “are you joking or are you serious?” ‘Never more serious In my life, but will there be excitement? I crave ac­ tion, you know." "You’ll get plenty of action, but the pay is only $75 a month.” “That’s O. K. with me,” answered Bud, genially. - “Well, I guess I’ll breeze and get my discharge' papers and prove I’m all right. . > Whereupon he .hurried down the street, while Bart Rogers, . with a new confidence, went on ,toward his-self- appointed duty. Sooii he was on the main street, and at the first “em­ porium” he turned in. “I want the proprietor,” he an-. nounced to the be-aproned person be­ hind the bar. “I’m him. i Whafll you have?” “What aTe you selling here? Hard stuff?” Bart had hidden his badge. 1 The bartender grinned and nodded. “Sorry, old man,” , Bart answered, "but the town closes up tomorrow night—and closes tight. That gives you 24 hours to get out.” Bart departed. At a dance hall next door he made the same announcement, received In staring silence. Then he went on, finally to stop Jn front of a small tent, In which a lean, check- suited man bent over a small' coun­ ter, manipulating as he did so three plaster-filled halves of English, wal­ nuts. * / Money was being-.piled on the coun­ ter, B a rtsw e p tita sid e .: “Nix, on that butt-in stuff!” came sharply. “Who 'let yOn In here?” “The same person;who’s going to let you out,” came .with equal asperity from the marshal.

Acid Sepms to Act as a Tonic. Is milk a substitute fpr a 20 per cent meat mash as a feed for chick­ ens? Accordingtotheresultsofan experiment conducted by;- the poultry department- at South Dakota college, it is. “If a-farm er has milk, lie ought, to feed some of it to his chickens,” states U. L; Stevenson, head of the poultry department. “Milk can .,be fed to chickens to tetter advantage* than tq hogs and older calves. Furthermore, it. will pay anyone to buy milk for the young chicks." . The results of the experiment show that although milk is a substitute for meat mash, if both the meat mash and the milk have to be purchased, the meat mash will supply the necessary protein to the chickens for less cost. A point in favor of the milk, however, is that it keeps tlie fowls healthier. The lactic add in the milk seems to act as a tonic,^Stevenson believes. To combine - the, advantages of the two feeds, when b’otli have to Be pur­ chased, he advises that meat mash be wet with warmed milk or with the commercial semi-solid buttermilk di­ luted with warm water. This combina­ tion will cost but very little extra and will keep the chickens In good health. In conducting the experiment, three flocks of 30 chickens each were used; The semi-solid buttermilk was fed to one lot; the meat mash to the second; and buttermilk and meat mash to the third. All three-flocks were also fed tile regular scratch feeds. Practically the same nurnter of eggs were laid by each flock during the time the experi­ ment was carried on. ^ a in u n iim iiiiiin iiiiiH O llIll, M satK ei- Penn State Jersey Cow Establishes Big Record Penstate Pogis H attier1State cham­ pion Jersey cow bred by the Pennsyl­ vania State -college, has qualified for the 305-day class. To be eligible, she had to give birth to a calf before May 26, which jvas the final day of the 14- month period following her former calving. A fine bull calf was born on May 22, four days before the time limit expired. 'As a junior four-year-old Penstate Pogis Hattie produced 701 pounds of butterfat in 305 days which made her not only the leader nmqng all Jerseys of her age class in the state but of all ages In Pennsylvania. In the 3C5 days she produced 834.7 pounds of butterfat and 15,505 pounds of milk, which qualified her for state champion In the four-year-old class and for a gold' and a silver medal. This is also the second highest record, made by- a Jersey of any age In Penn­ sylvania. Sophie Elberta, a Hood, farm bred cow, was the only Jersey in Penn-’ sylvania to exceed this record. Penstate Pogis H attie also made a very creditable record of 10,611 pounds of milk and 614.7 pounds of butterfat as a junior three-year-old, qualifying for. a silver medal with this record. m Drives out the catar­ rhal poisons, dispefe the inflamatiou of the mucous Iinings and reinforces the system against di3. ease.

Danger of Cows Bloating on Cowpeas as Pasture While cowpeas are not so generally used for pasture for cows, they can, nevertheless, be used for this purpose. There is some danger, however, that cows will bloat when on cowpea pas­ ture just as there Is always some dan­ ger when they are on clover or alfalfa pasture. - After cows become accus­ tomed to it. the danger of bloating Is much less. ' When you first .turn your cows on cowpea pasture they should not be left on It very long, and not when the dew is still on the pea nor should, they be very hungry when they are turned on the first time. It Is always a good plan, whether you turn on to cowpea, clover or alfalfa pasture, to feed- the cows a full feed so they will not eat greedily. Each day they can be left longer until they are used toJ t f after which there Is not much danger "of bloating. . ; • Tired, Lame, Achy?

Washington.—The heat of the sun has a proven relation not only to changes In the earth’s temperature, but to the variations In .weather condi­ tions in general, Smitiisonlan inslltu tion scientists have decided after ex­ periments covering a long period. Ti. increase the dependability of their ob­ servations, the experts hope to estab Ilsh within a few years stations In various parts of the world where data can b e’gathered. Through a series of papers dealing with experiments of Its astropbysical observatory, the institution says “re­ searches give clear proof of a con­ nection between solar variations and weather changes, but show that the relation is a complex one.” Whether recent abnormal aspects ot world-wide weather have been caused by solar conditions cannot be deter­ mined. because extended records of the past history of solar radiation are lacking. Basis for Predictions. Dr. C. G. Abbot, assistant secretary of the institution and the director of the astropbysical observatory, says that not only does the heat received by the earth from the sun appear variable, but that the changes can be predicted nearly a week in advance by looking at the sun through a telescope. H. H. Clayton, who for several years was official forecaster of Argentina and recently has been collaborating with Doctor Abbot through study of the sun, lias predicted, with what the in­ stitution asserts is very fair accuracy the actual daily temperatures of New York city nearly a week in advance for more than a year. For several years the work has been conducted from two observa­ tories. one at Mount Harqua Hala, Arlz., and the other near Calama, In the nitrate desert of Chile Both are In high, arid locations. To increase the accuracy of the observations Im­ provements are being planned for the Chile station, while the Arizona ob­ servatory Is to be moved to a higher location on Table mountain, California, near Los Angeles, Stations in the Eastern hemisphere are needed and Dr. Abbot will go to Asia this fall and, with funds supplied by the National Geographic society, seek a desirable location fov an ob­ servatory, with Beluchistan as his first objective. Later he will go to south­ west Africa, in search of a probable site for an observatory there. Effect on Barometer. Since 1922 researches have been conducted under the most unusual solar conditions known' to modern science through a marked long-con­ tinued low period in the amount of heat thrown out by the sun. Whereas the normal has - been established as 1.94 calories per square centimeter per minute, this value, known as the solar constant, since 1922 has been as low as 1.90, or 2 per cent below normal. At present it is 1.93 and showing a ten­ dency to rise. The phenomenal drop was first announced by Doctor Abbot in April, 1923, and he then pronounced that departures of some sort from normal ' weather conditions might be expected. Mr. Clayton says that changes In the sun’s heat almost immediately af­ fect the barometer and the thermome­ ter In western Canada and western United States, perhaps as a reaction from the tropical atmosphere, travel­ ing with the velocity of sound.

Plan to Revive Old-Time German Military Bands Berlin.—Efforts are being made to revive the old-time military bands which formerly were a popular part of every-day German life. In recent years they have given way to string orchestras and jazz bands. In the movement to bring the military bands back to their own, a monster concert was organized recently at the Stadlon, when 20 bands played simultaneously under the direction of Prof. Oscar Hackenberger. More than 20,000 per­ sons attended. California High School Girl Wins Meat Contest Chicago.—From a field of approxi­ mately 13,500 contestants coming front high schools throughout the United States. Mlss Frances Erdman, Tnrlock, Cal., has been chosen national cham­ pion In the second national meat story contest. This announcement Is made by Jh e National Live Stock and Meal board, which conducted the contest In co-operation with high school home Miss Frances Erdman. economic Instructors. The -honor at­ tained by Miss Erdman carries with it a cash award of $300. Selection of the national champion and other winners was made by a com­ mittee of prominent home economics women. The contest was sponsored by the board as an aid to the study of meat In high school home economics classes, according to a statement accompany­ ing the announcement of winners. Con­ testants were required to write a story or theme upon some phase of the meat subject and send in with this three original and practical meat recipes. Electric Energy Is Sent By Wireless Makes Possible Operation of Vessels From Land. Washington.—Electrical energy has been successfully transmitted by wire­ less through the use of inventions by the Italian engineer, MIdali, according to reports received here from Turin through official channels. According to these reports, the pos­ sibilities of this method of power transmission are boundless. In an In-, terview published in Turin, Midali de-1 scribed the results of his five years of study in part as follows: “The result obtained is that of transmitting electric energy In the form of alternating current, without excessive losses, but. In reality the electric energy Is not .transmitted as such. The system transforms the elec­ tric energy emanating from any source in the form of alternating current, at frequency and tension generally em­ ployed In industry, Into very short electro-magnetic waves of about one millionth, of a centimeter. These waves must- be of about the size of light waves, and have nothing In common with the Hertzian waves used for radio communications. Opening Fall River Scenic Road % This looks like a midwinter scene, but it was made at the official opening of the Fail River Scenic road in Rocky Mountain NationalvPark, Colorado, two miles above sea level. “These extremely short waves, that ought to be called vibrations of the electrons, constitute the means by which the electric energy is trans­ mitted to a distant receiving system, which In turn transforms them into electric current of Identical character­ istics of that used by the transmitting system. “The electric vibrations created by the transmitting system travel in a straight line toward an Ideal ’focus, according to the directions imparted to them by the systems of condensers which form the aerial; they converge in a point in which the ideal lines of the aerial condensers of the receiving system must so converge. When this condition Is not fulfilled, trans­ mission cannot initiate. “When transmission has begun, the position of the aerials and also that of the transmitting and receiving systems are do longer of Importance and the system goes on working even-if both stations change position. “No mass between the two stations can Interfere with the functioning of the system. “The system also permits the trans­ mission of polyphase currents. It may be foreseen that it will be used for electric traction, enabling electric trains to be run without drivers. Steamers may be operated from the land and electric power will be avail­ able even in localities where It cannot be produced on the spot or transmitted by wire. “It will also be useful In radio com­ munications, In which cose the fre­ quency of the current and the perfect dirigiblllty of the xjpve will permit synchronization of the stations and total suppfession of disturbances caused by other contemporaneous transmissions.” , Norse Whalers Lead World in 1925 Catch Oslo.—The whaling season in the Antarctic waters around South Shel- Iand and South Georgia has. been very successful as far as the Norwegians tire concerned. The whalers secured 166,000 barrels of whale oil from South Georgia and 166,880 barrels from South Shetland, this being an increase in the amount obtained last year of 50,000 barrels. At South Orkney, 54,000 barrels were obtained, while off the Mexican coast Norwegian whalers got 22,000 barrels The tptal for the Norwegian com­ panies this year has been 410,000. bnr- reis, while other nations have pro­ duced 257,000 barrels. The ,Norwegian whaling fleet’ con­ sists of first-class vessels equipped with radio, and newly built tankers with cookeries. It sails practically over the whole globe, and it has about 4,000 Norse sailors engaged In the trade as whalers. Thousands Homeless ,Warsaw, Poland.—Efeavy floods have left thousands of persons homeless In central and western Galicia, according to dispatches from Cracow. HISTORIC SPOT TO BE MEMORIAL Plan to Preserve Earliest Western Railroad Depot. The spot where ground was broken in 1853 for the first railroad west of the Mississippi soon will be dedicated as a memorial to one of its most en­ thusiastic promoters,' Anton Ie Claire, whose home was the railroad’s first depot in Iowa. Le Claire was a familiar and im­ portant figure on the frontier. In­ dians and white men alike depended upon him as a go-between. He him­ self was of Indian descent and mar­ ried to an Indian princess; but’ the federal government had educated him and the United States used him as an interpreter In making treaties with the Indian tribes of Illinois and Iowa. When General Scott was negotiat­ ing with the Sac and Fox tribes Chief Keokuk gave the intermediary, Le Claire, the site on which DavenporL Iowa, now stands, on condition that Le Claire build his house near the spot where General Scott’s tent stood. Here was signed the treaty between the United States and these Indian tribes In 1832. , Le Claire built his house the follow­ ing year, the first residence In Daven­ port. Twenty years later the Missouri and Mississippi railway broke ground beside it and Le Claire turned his house over to the railroad to be used as a depot, moving to a more sumptu­ ous dwelling on a hill, for meantime he had acquired wealth. In the little house, with front and back porches and two dormer win­ dows, Le Claire heard the grievances of his Indian neighbors. Here inquiries of the government were translated and the responses, of the red men were drawn up into' formal proposals that later went to congress and became his­ toric treaties, underlying the rights of title and possession of the western country. Here Le Claire met Indians bent on war and white men bent on litigation and brought harmony and co-operation into their dealings. Here, too, he took counsel with those de­ termined upon the development of the West and with them planned the push­ ing across the Mississippi of the “iron horse.” The little house, shorn o f most' of Its trimmings, huddled on its historic spot for many years after It was abandoned as a railway depot. Now it is coming Into greater honor. It was presented a short while ago by the owner of the land on which It stood, to the Rock Island railway, with which Its early history was associated. The railroad put back its porches and its dormer windows and restored It completely. Under the supervision of the curator of the historical, memorial and art de­ partment’ of Iowa it was moved a few feet and rebuilt as nearly as possible In its original condition. It will be turned over for safe keep­ ing to the Davenport chapter of the Daughters of the American Revolu­ tion. They will preserve it as a mu­ seum and surround it with such flow­ ers and shrubbery as might’ have been found there In the early days of Iowa,. —New York Times. Long Jaunt of Whaler After completing a remarkable voy­ age, the world’s largest whaling “cook­ ery,” the Sir James Clark Ross, has re­ turned to Norway. On board was the body of the captain, who died after the ship had reached the Ross sea. The re­ sult of the expedition was fairly good, nnd doubtless would have been better had not extremely low temperatures and rough seas created unusual diffi­ culties. On this voyage the Sir James Clark Ross accomplished a real trip around the world. On the way out the ship passed south of Africa and proceeded by way of New Zealand to Ross sea. The return journey was. around Cape Horn. The total distance traveled was 32,000 nautical miles, or the equivalent of one and a third times around the earth at the equator.

Cyanide Process Growing Of 'the three well-known processes of separating gold and silver from tbelr ores, the cyanidlng process is now used for the production of about one-third of the world’s annual pro­ duction of precious metals. The other .two methods are smelting and amal­ gamation. In the cyaniding process the ores are crushed finely and mixed with water containing cyanide in so­ lution. The gold and silver are dis­ solved, the solution filtered and the7 gold or silver then precipitated by the addition of zinc dust 'or' shavings which replaces gold or silver, in so­ lution.' ’ Conscience Hurt The postmaster of Arcadia, Ivan., has received a letter from a man in California saying tliat lie stole a lunch basket there in 1887.

Fresno, Calif.—Explosion of gasoline Tapors1 ignited when an electric liglit tv as turned onf cost the ■ lives of H. B. Schroeder and his four children and razed the Schroeder home in Piper Colony between Reedley and Dinuba. It was first believed that a bomb had been placed in the home. The dead are H. B. Schroeder1 50, vineyardist; Sarah Schroeder1 21 fruit packer; Myrtle Schroeder, 24, fruit pkcker; Louis Schroeder, 13, and Ar­ nold Schroeder, eight.' Witli the execption of Sarah Schroe­ der, believed to have turned on an electric light which provided the nec­ essary spark for the explosion, the en­ tire family was asleep and it is believ­ ed never knew what took place. Their ■bodies, charred almost beyond recog­ nition, were found near their beds. The father and son occupied one bed, the young daughter another, and the two older daughters slept togeth­ er. The four walls of the two story stijcco house were blown out from the bottom of the house, and the second ■ floor and roof settled on the founda­ tion from the violence of the explo­ sion, felt plainly at Reedley, several miles away. In just an instant after the explosioin, the debris broke into flames and burned. Pieces of the walls, particularly the windows, were blown nearly 200 feet from the Aouse1 as were bits of brlc-a- bric and portions of window curtains, while a row ot trees on the south side of the house, alongside the driveway to the barn were studded with bits of glass and pieces of furnture and ktchen utensils. j TWO OFFICERS DIE AS PLANE CRASHES. Westbury1 N. Y.—First Lieuten­ ants Charles Rf Hickery1 of Brock­ ton, Mass., and Albert C. Perry, of Marlboro. Mass., were killed when their airplane crashed near here. The plane went into a tail spin at a height estimated between 700 and I,OOtT feet. It fell in a field and instantly burst into flames. ^An ambulance and a wrecking crew were hurried from Mitchell Field, and the bodies, badly charred, were removed from the flaming wreck­ age. Lieutenants Hickey and Perry were reserve officers stationed at Mitchell Field for two weeks train- ing. ■ ^ . A M SHIPS DENIED 'LIEF BRITISH VESSELS GET MUCH TRAFFIC ON ACCOUNT OF WHISKEY. Admiral Williams Dies. Charleston.—Rear Admiral George W. Wiliiams1 TJ. S.. N., died at the naval hospital at the Charleston navy yard from an infection of the throat. He was 56 years old, and at the time of his death was commander of the destroyer section of the fleet. Admiral Williams was brought to the naval hospital on the destroyer Sturtevant1 having become ill at sea en route from Panama, the destroyer making a very fast trip in order to get the admiral into a hospital. It was previously announced that he was suf­ fering from tonsilitis. Admiral Wiliams, who has been in the Paciflr maneuvers as commander of the destroyers, was on his way North with the destroyers when he became ill. He 'had planned to put In to Charleston on a destroyer in or­ der that he might visit his mother at Columbia. Hie had planned, to go north from Columbia by train. He ex­ pected to reach Charleston about July 16. but when he became ill the Sturte- vant quickened its time and reached Charleston Tuesday. | / At first the physicians at the navy I hospital did not consider his condition alarming and expected that he would be able to'leave the infirmary within about ten days, however, he had a , turn for the worse and it was found that he was suffering from ^Srious in­ fection of the throat. His condition became critical in the night. New York.—A test attack upon the so-called “moist” treaty with Great Britain which permits vessels of for­ eign registry to bring liquor under seal into United States ports failed when* Federal Judge Mack ruled that 1 the federal courts are without power to compel-prosecuting officers to en­ force penal laws. j Judge Mack ruled that whether the treaty is contrary to law and the con­ stitution or not, the courts can not order enforcement of the penal laws. I “The federal courts are without power to compel this,” he declared, “whatever the ground of the f&llure of prosecuting officers to enforce Uie laws may be. The remedy for in­ activity of that kind is in the execu­ tive branch and, ultimately, with the people.” The suit was brought by members j of the Neptune Association of Masters and Mates in an attempt to have the treaty declared unconstitutional. The plaintiffs, all interested in American shipping, said that ships flying the American flag were being damaged because passengers preferred to trav­ el on British ships in order to obtain liquor beyond the three mile limit. They asked for injunctions restraining British ships “from violating the law and constitution.” The injunction was denied. As to the constitutionality of the treaty Judge Mack said in his opin­ ion; “While on' the motion to dismiss for want of equity both counsel de­ sire a ruling on the constitutionality of the treaty, I find it unnecessary, and, therefore, improper to consider that question in view of my opinion that even if the treaty were unconsti­ tutional, as to which I intimate no opinion, the bill states no cause for equitable relief.” COWES PM HOME CITY OF FORMER PRESI­ DENTS JOHN ADAMS AND SON.

C.—Fire, originating in the Almo theater, a motion picture house, located on Fayotteville street in the midst of the uptown business district, destroyed the building, a three story structure extending across an entire block, and damaged' several nearby buildings. First estimates placed the loss at more than $100,000. The fire was discovered shortly after midnight, the flames spreading rapidly. For a time it looked as if the entire block would be destroyed, a dense femoke handicapping the fire­ men in fighting the flames. The fire is bfelieved to have origi­ nated in the operators’ room of the picture theater, but the cause had not been ascertained. Reports 7 Deaths From Heat.' Chicago.—Hot weather in the mid­ dle west continued to add to its toll of deaths and prostrations which have- been steadily mounting for the last week. W eather predictions showe'd little indications of immediate relief- from temperatures ranging from 90 degrees to more than 100 except for ■ thunder-’ showers in some sections. St. Louis reported seven additional deaths from the heat with slightly lowertemperature. Chicago continued to enjoy moder­ ate temperatures due to lak£..breezes. After registering the 'two hottest days, of the summer on Sunday and Monday, the mercury dropped to 108 degrees as a maximum in Phoenix. Sunday the hottest day'of the summer with 116 as the high mark. - New heat records for 15 years or more were 'hung up at a number of. points in the Rdcky mountain district.

Swampscott1 Mai=S.—In the role of sightseers, President and Mrs. Cool- .dge .visited the 300 year old city of Quincy, where John Adams and John Quincy Adams, the only two other residents of Massachusetts to become president, were bom and buried. Cruising down the coast from Mar­ blehead on the Mayflower, the presi­ dent and Mrs. Coolidge, with a small party of guests, debarked at the Fore River yard of the Bethlehem ^Ship­ building corporation, as stone’s throw from the new airplane carrier Lexing­ ton, which is nearing completion. - From deck of U s yacht the presi­ dent viewed with' interest the huge red hull of the Lexington but did not go over to its ways to inspect the craft Leaving the shipyard by motor, Mr. and Mrs. Coolidge first went to a small frame house, the birthplace of John Quincy/ Adams, sixth president of. the United States., and the home during the Revolutionary war of John Adams, signer of the Declaration of Independ­ ence and second president. j . Later the presidential party crossed to an adjoining yard, where stood the modest frame dwelling, where John Adams was born. Before going back to the yacht for the return cruise to Marblehead, the president and Mrs. Coolidge visited the first parish church, in the basement of which is the resting place of both John and John Quincy Adams. Mr. and Mrs. Coolidge were accom­ panied by Melville E. Stone, their house guest, Secretary Sanders and a dozen photographers, who made the trip at the express invitation of the president. Mr. Coolidge evinced great interest in the historical spots in Quincy which last month celebrated its 300th an­ niversary. In the John Quiiacy Adams birthplace he studied numerous prints and old. pictures which covered the walls, gazed at the planked ceiling with cross beams and walked up- a creaky flight of stairs to take a look at the four posted canopy bed, cover­ ed with patcli quilts. Both houses have been restored as much as pos­ sible to their condition in the late Igth century. The president was particularly in­ terested in the Adams homestead be­ cause of his distant relationship to Abigail, wife of John and the mother qf JoTin Quincy Adams. 3 UNIDENTIFIED MEN ~ BURNED TO DEATH.

After graduation Corf wanted to be­ come a reporter, but his father de­ murred. Instead he entered a Wall street brpker’s office. The connection proved lucrative, but I e yearned to devote his entire time to literature. Finally he resigned to become a proof reader for' a bpok publishing houses, and rose to be vice president.

It should be care­ fully guarded during the warm sum­ m er'm onths, to -Insure Its freedom from germs "dr bacteria- that might cause harm to the child. Because of Its nature, lt: is, under certain condi­ tions, a breeding and propagating ground for germ life and may soon be­ come unfit for use unless it is handled with tlie utmost care and vigilance. Perhaps, the Ideal way to obviate this risk is through the use of evaporated milk. This milk Is only pure milk with sixty per cent of the water re­ moved from it and Ig absolutely ster­ ile. It is of double richness but may be modified by the addition of water, which' will return J t to Its original volume with a greatly enhanced food value. Evaporated milk is sterilized . and has a high nutritive content. Ttilg causes it to be a very excellent food for the young., child and the Infant. In fact, many of the leading pedi­ atricians of the country advocate Its use after the child Is deprived of Its' mother’s milk. A formula, evolved by these pediatricians,' through experi­ mentation, is'a s follows: From Sixth Week to Third Month. Milk, evaporated ........................ 6 ounces Llme w ater 3ounc.es Mllk sugar- ............. 2 ounces Boiled water .. .26 ounces Seven feedings In tw enty-four hours; 4 to B ounces a t three-hour Intervals during the day and four-hour intervals at night. - From Third Month to Fifth Month.

Tlie following story from the JIiiiiroe Enquirer could just as well have been written from any other Iovvii in North Carolina as from Monroe: A Monroe merchant, who runs a general store, told me of a young married man who had gone to him s;i eral months ago, requiring credit for a lot of groceries. The merch­ ant knew the young man's father to be n most honorable man, but he did not know the son. However, the merchandise was duly delivered but a mortgage was taken on the voting man's milk cow—as a pre caution. The young man said he had some cotton he did not wish to sell at the time, but would soon settle the account. A few weeks after lrausactiou, the merchant glanced out upon the street and lie saw the youug man driving home a nice new automo bille. Of course, then the merch­ ant was not so sure of getting his pay in cash for the groceries. He requested payment, and the young man said: "If I don't keep up the payments on the car I will lose it. ’ ■ • Tlieii you are going to lose ymir emv." the Uiercliaiit told the young man I saw the merchant a few days ago. If" was trying to collect for other goods sold on credit to other persons, and was inakiug little pro­ gress. "The country is busted,” said lie, "and automobiles have done it.” “Oh, no.” I assured him; your customers you have credited "are perhaps purchasing.; gppds_.from other merchants who will credit them. You don’t know who .is de handing your fellow merchant duivu the street, nor he you.” “Well, we've just got to do something,” said the merchant, ".or automobiles are about to break the couu rv.”\ "Automobiles, your grand­ mother!" I told him. "It’s you merchants who are about to break Hie county. If you would only quit crediting everybody, there are lots of folks who would have to go to wuik.” Maybe you're right," said the mudiant Another thiug I told him. "You ought to observe how prosperous and how well the stores of Monroe are patronized that are selling for cadi ami giving folks bargains.” Also a merchant told me the other day that he would pos-ibly lose 2,5 per cent on customers be kal credited, aud besides that he hand several hundred dollars’ lvorIhof worthless checks in his sale.

Many couples while they can stand the health ex­ amination all right consider it none of the State’s business to tie prying into their health records like they do a horse or a bull aud when they decide to get married they skip a- cross the Slate line into South Caro Iina aud have the knot tied where health certificates, divorces aud other botherations are unknown arid where one can get tied up for a dollar.

"Then shall ■-the kingdom of Satan be likened to a giain of to­ bacco seed; which through exceed­ ingly small, being cast; into the ground grew, and become a great plant, and spread its leaves rank and broad, so that huge and vile worms formed a habitation thereon. And it came to pass, in the course of time, that the son of man looked upon it, aud thought it beautiful to look upon, and thought to be desired to make lads.look big.and manly. So they put forth their their hands and did clicw thereof. And some it made sick, aud others to vomit most filthily. Am! it further came to past that those who chewed it became weak and un itiauly, and said we are enslaved, can’t cease-from chewing it And the mouths of all that were eiT slaved became foul; and they were seized with a violent spitting; and they did even spit even ill ladies parlors, aud in the house of the Lord of Hosts. And the saints of the Most High were greatly pla­ gued thereby. And in the course of time it came also to pass that others snuffed it; and they did sneeze with a great aud mighty sneeze, iusoti u;n that there eyes filled with tears, and they did look exceedingly silly. And yet others cunningly wrought the leaves there of, and did suck vehemently at the other end thereof, aud did look very grave and calf-like; and the smoke of their torment ascended up forever and forever. "Aud the cultivation therof be­ came mgreat and .mighty .-business, in the ear'll; aud the merchantmen waxed rich by the commerce there­ of. Atid it came to pass that the saints of the Most High defiled themselves therewith; even the poor who could not buy shoes, uor bread, nor books for their little mes, spent their money for it. Andf the Lord was greatly dis­ pleased therewith, a li d said, ’Wherefore this waste; with, aud why do these little ones lack bread and shoes and books? Turn now field into corn and wheat; and put this thiug far from .you; and be separate, defile not yourselves any­ more, aud I will bless' you and cause my face to shine on you. “ But with one accord they all exclai.med: “ ‘We camiot cease from chew­ ing, suuffiug aud puffing—we are slaves. ’ ’ Uudertnining Constitntionai Gov. eminent. As to the possibility of reducing the overhead cost of the Federal government in years to come. Presi­ dent Goolidge made the following clearcut statement: ■‘Unfortunately the federal. gov­ ernment has straved far afield from its legitimate business. It has tres­ passed upon fields where there should be no trespass. If we could confine our federal expenditures to the legitimate obligations and func­ tions of the federal government a material reductiou would be appar­ ent. But far more important' than this would be its effect upon-the fa­ bric of our constitutional form of government, which tends to be gra. dually weakened and undermined by this encroachment.” No weightier, rio wiser words have come from the White House in niaiiy y e a rs .—Carolina Watchman.

It has been a. common statement that in public affairs two employes are equally hired, where one would be required to do the work In pri­ vate affairs. President Coolidge has shown a determination to' change this method of doing public business if he possibly can. He has decided to disyeuse with the services of the White House Social Secretary and turn this . work over to some man ill the state department service. This means that's man in the state department will have to assume the additional responsibility of d'rectly the conduct of all formal social func­ tions at the White House instead of being merely-au advisor iu regsrds to them as iu the past. It has been suggested that the man on whom this additional duty will fall is likely to resign. It is a safe bet. .however that will not resign If the people want economy in public affairs they must back public officials who have the courage to cut out red tape and public pompt even though it causes someone to lose a j >b on the public payroll.—Ex What’s the fare to CincimiBli?.

The prices are p ohibi- tive. This has been one of the dryest years that this state has experienc­ ed in a long while. In some sec­ tions crops have been almost ruin­ ed. This immediate sectioii has fared well. We believe more rain has fallen in Mocksville this sum­ mer than in any other town in Western Carolina. So far as we can learn then seems to be no kick on the county commissions lending the state a part of the money with which to build the concrete bridge connect ing Davie and Davidson counties. This would mean a ‘hard surface road from the river to Mocksvi I le. and we believe that within the nexl two years the hard-surface would extend from Mocksville to Staies- ville. Davie county hasn't receiv­ ed her share of good roads from the state. We will have to gel busy before the other counties are allotted all the hard surface roads. -The Record tries to be very leni­ ent with its subscribers and dis­ likes very much to have to press -them for IIuir renewals.

Despite the strenuous program Mr. I Bryan had been following as a mem- | ter of the prosecution staff in the I Stopes ease and as leader of the fun- I Jamentalists. he appeared ill-excellent I iitJltn. Shortly before Mr. Bryan entered I Ks room to rest he told his wife he i bad never felt better in his life and I was ready to go before the country to I *age his tight in behalf of fundamen- I talism. Abtu 4:30 o’clock Mrs. Bryan said I she fell her husband had slept long I enough, so she sent the chauffeur, I *bo also was his personal attendant, j to wake him.

Mrs. Bryan accepted the shock I Iiraveily and remained calm. "I am happy that my husband died I without suffering and in peace,” she I said.

The flood is the worst in this city since 1904 when all bridges’here wash­ ed away and hundreds of thousands of dollars of property lost. Fully one'half of the business and residential districts were submerged. W ashington—Although action was deferred by the stripping board indica­ tions were that with little delay it would approve the recommendation of President Palmer of the fleet cor­ poration, for acceptance of Henry Ford’s bid of $1,706,000 for the 200 vessels offered for scrapping. With four members present, the board discussed the recommendation at considerable length but decided to resume consideration of the question later, when additional commissioners are expected to be in the city. Counsel for the board attended the meeting and gave their opinions as to the legality of the Ford offer in rela­ tion to the advertisement of sale. In­ dications were that this was found satisfactory, while no question was said to have been raised as to the procedure ot negotiation, which has been protested by the Boston Iron and Metal company of Baltimore but de­ clared by Che board’s counsel to have been regular and legal. Although Mr. Ford in his offer ex­ pressed a hope that, if the' ships were awarded to him, some now on the. At­ lantic coast might be substituted for several in the list of offered, no change in the list was recommended by Mr. Palmer, and the board is expected to make no suoh change on the ground that to do so would alter the basis of the' entire sale and be contrary to the advertisement. Honolulu,—Two aviators were kill­ ed and three injured in triple acci­ dents which occurred within less than three hours. The dead: FlrstLieutenantCharlsis L. Morse, Lancaster, N- H.; First Lieu­ tenant Joihn A. Wyatt, Hampton, Va. Injured: Staff Sergeant Prosper Ter Moulten; Second Lieutenant John F. McBlain, District ot .-Columbia; Private Hanks, acting observer. Both ot the officers leave families. Sergeant Ter Moulten is the most ser­ iously hurt of the injured. Lieutenant Morse took oft from Luke field, on the army end of Ford island, at almost the same time that a navy plane piloted by Chief Petty Officer Froslo arose at the other end of the island. The two pilots evidently did not see each other until their planes were near collision. Bye witnesses said both were cir­ cling trying to obtain “ceiling” and that Morse apparently glimpsed the navy plane and tried to pull away. As ihe did so the tail surfaces and control wires of Morse’s plane came In contact with the surface of the navy plane, throwing the army plane, which was heavily loaded, out ot control. The army plane pulled away, then crashed to the earth, striking on the left wing. Lieutenant Morse was dead when the ambulance arrived. Lieutenant Wyatt, accompanied by Sergeant Ter Moulten, was piloting a large de Haviland plane when his engine started to give trouble. Forced to land, he made for a small field on the Waipahu plantation 14 miles from here. He overlooked however a high tension electric wire which caught the plane, and sent it crashing to the ground. . The pilot was killed instantly. Seageant Ter Moulten was taken to Tripler general hospital. Both ot these accidents happened within an hour. The third occurred with Lieutenant McBlain, with Pri­ vate Hanks as observer, went up in another de Haviiand to search for W yatt’s plane. They located the plane, but in land­ ing hit the same,wire that caused the W yatt accident. ' McBlain received a gash in his neck and other external and possibly internal injuries. Pri­ vate Hanks was cut and bruised. Lisbon Puzzled Over Man Who Holds Tongue and Refuses Freedom. * Lisbon.—Seven years without hav­ ing uttered a single word, despite pos­ session of his faculties, coupled with a determination to live in jail in pref­ erence to a life of freedom, have made Ivan Gluchosa known to everyone In Lisbon. He is a jnystery to the police, who have on more than one occasion shown him the prison doors, and the people seemingly never tire of specu­ lating why the voluntarily “silent pris­ oner” never says a word.

Washington.—Upon his return from his Vermont resting place, General Lincoln C. Andrews, assistant secre­ tary ot the treasury in charge of pro­ hibition enforcement, will be confront­ ed by a real problem. The announcement of Roy A. Hay­ nes, some days ago, that all prohibi­ tion agents would be discharged and a new start has been interpreted as a call for volunteers tor 22 of the $7,500 jobs and others at less remunerative pay. Approximately 5,000 persons, among them a large number of ministers of the gospel ,have applied for the key positions. There is a great clamor for the dry jobs, and every applicant has an original suggestion for the service. One college boy believes that he can do the prohibition task in the day time and go to school at night. Some of these applicants have come on to Washington for personal inter­ views with General Andrews, believ­ ing they can convince him at close range. Others are relying on politi­ cal influence to help them. Aged Sisters Clubbed To Death. Hudson, N. H.—Two elderly-maiden sisters were found beaten to death in the home they occupied alone here. They were Miss H. Georgianna Gillis, 77, and Miss Helen Gillis, 80. The body of Miss Georgianna was crumpled in the pantry among broken dishes,, her skull crushed by blows from a club. Her sister apparently had been struck down In the kitchen, for blood had spattered the floor and her tom cape was found hear the sink. The body, however, was found on a couch in the living room. No instrument that had caused the deaths ,were found in the house by the police and no stranger was re­ ported seen In the vicinity. The house appeared not to have been rob­ bed or ransacked.

Dayton, Tenn.—Conviction of Scopes on a chiarge of violating the Tennes­ see law against the teaching of theo­ ries of evolution in public schools paved the way for an appeal to the state supreme court. The scene of the “evolution test? will be shifted from Dayton to Knox­ ville, where ! under the regular order of procedure the Tennessee court will hear cases from this circuit the first Monday in September. The minimum fine ot $100 was im­ posed by the court and bail was fixed at $500. The defendant made a surety bond for his appearance in Rhea coun­ ty circuit court the first Monday in December, when the supreme court was expected to'have passed upon the case. As soon as the verdict was return­ ed the defense moved for a new trial and when this was overruled Scopes’ attorneys made the other customary legal motions to complete the record and send the case on its way to the supreme court. Not Enough- Gas to Fly Dirigibles. Washington.—Although the Navy’s helium plant at Fort Worth, Texas, reached its highest production of the gas in June, with 1,228,000 cubic feet, it will probably be October I, at that rate of production, before there is a sufficient quantity on hand to inflate both the Shenandoah and Los Angeles. The helium in the Los Angeles was recently transferred to the Shenan­ doah to permit her to carry out the present program of maneuvers at sea arid other flights planned for the giant dirigible. - I Grain Exports Record Gains. Washington,—Grain and grain pro­ ducts to the value of $535,000,000 were exported from the United States dur­ ing the fiscal year ending with June. The figures, -announced by the Commerce Department, registered a gain of $289,000,000 over the value ot exports ot similar product^ during the fiscal year of 1924 and resulted from higher prices which have pre­ vailed during recent months tor ce­ real products. Much of the increase was accounted for by the exportation of 195,490,000 bushels of wheat against 78,793,000 bushels exported the year before. The increase in values was relatively much higher, for the department es timated that 1925 wheat exports were worth $306,606,000 while those of 1924 were worth $87,713,000. Flour exports for the fiscal year 1925 were 13,896,000 barrels worth $97,766,000. In 1924 they were 17,- 253,000 barrels and $88,202,000. Four Men Rob Policeman. Charlotte. N.

The perplexed coijsul sent him back to the prison,, where he remained for three years quietly, peacefully and con­ tentedly, but absolutely silent. Doctors have pronounced Ivan nor­ mal in every way, and established the fact that he enjoys listening to the tffiiig of birds. Insults Fail to Stir Him. He has been Insulted and abused In his own language and in most others, but he never showed he heard what was said. Traps have been set for liim, but all Ib of n» avail. Ivan has determined not to speak. At the end of three years the prison authorities gave this silent man a new outfit of clothes and a pocketful of money and set him free. But at the gate he shrank back and refused to leave the sheltering walls. Four years have passed since then. Today Ivan Is assistant prison cook, but he will accept no money for Iiis work. Occasionally he goes out on business connected with the kitchen, but from these excursions he returns with manifestations of joy. He loves his job, he loves his prison home, and he finds joy In self-imposed silence. French Law Case Dates Back to Charlemagne Parls--A law suit originating in the days of Charlemagne is being tried by the tribune of the little republic of Andorra, now sitting at Perpigman, France. Charlemagne, returning from his Spanish expedition In 700 A. D., left as a rear guard protection against an incursion from the Moors into France, 1,000 soldiers on the south slope of the Pyrenees. The emperor made land grants to every soldier, aggregating 150 square miles, which down to these modern days has constituted the Free Repub­ lic of Andorra, under the sovereignty of France. The dispute is over one of these land titles, and it has been the subject of litigation for longer than 1,000 years. The money expended In costs through successive, trials is said to amount to more than ten times the value of the land itself. Illinois Farmer Saoes GiA From Enraged Wolf Wilmington, III.—Farmers of this township staged a hunt In the hope of capturing a pair of wolves that, have been plundering poultry yards. Wil­ liam Steen, a farmer of this vicinity, hastened to the rescue of Miss Celia Sallon when she was attacked by a wolf. Miss Sallon happened to notice a cub wallowing In the newly plowed field and thinking if was a dog picked It up. The mother of the cub, which had been hovering near unobserved. made a rush for Miss Sallon and slie might have been severely bitten but for Steen, who seized a club and beat off the enraged animal. Steen did not have a gun with him and the wolf then made Its escape. I! 11 !# I : :-!S 1 - ' f's fv t - T j ;€ $ m m Sr * ' * I * gMiilBgi I S ® f i M t1■ m i l MH MMm *'>?WmHm i iU *> ?

New York.—Thirty patients regard­ ed as hopelessly insane are back at work and leading normal lives after being artificially inoculated with ma­ laria, allowed to .suffer chills and fe­ ver for two weeks or so and then treated with drugs, according to an announcement by the Long Island College hospital. The SO patients belonged to a group of 60 sufferers from paresis who have received the malaria and drug treat­ ment at the Long Island -College hos­ pital. Of the 30 who have not recov­ ered sufficiently to return to work, several have sfiown marked benefit. Some of the patients failed to respond to the treatment. The percentage of successes, however, is considered re­ markable because of the fact that paresis was regarded as incurable up to the time that the malaria treatment was discovered in Austria. St. Eliz­ abeth’s hospital in Washington, D. C., the largest hospital'in the world for mental cases; the State Hospital for the Insane on Ward's island and the Brooklyn State Hospital for the In­ sane have been employing the malaria treatment with resuits equal to those achieved at Long Island College hos­ pital. ,A The treatment was forked out by Doctors Wagner von Jauregg of the Psychiatric Institute of Vienna and J. Ivyle of the University of Vienna dur­ ing the war. The experimentation was started to test the truth of reports which had been frequently made of sudden and remarkable improvement by sufferers from paresis after they had had attacks of malaria. A num­ ber of paresis patients were deliber­ ately Inoculated with malaria. Some died, some remained unbenefited, oth­ ers were helped to some extent and still others were so improved that they were able to leave the hospital and return to their old occupations. Show Improvement. Patients tbeated at the State hos­ pital at Ward’s island showed marked improvement on treatment with ma­ laria only, but drug treatment by mer­ curial and arsenical compounds also was used at Long Island College hos­ pital. There is some ' difference iff opinion among students of this treat­ ment whether the combined malaria and drug treatment is better than the simple malaria treatment. “Paresis accounts for a tremendous lot of insanity and a very great num­ ber of deaths each year,’’ says a Long Island College hospital physician, "so that' the success of this treatment is a thing of the utmost Importance to the world. Paresis usually sets in at middle age with symptoms which are hard to recognize. We suspect it when marked queerness of behavior develops at middle age in a man who has theretofore been normal. A typ­ ical picture of the disease is that of an industrious, conservative man who stands well in every way, but who sud­ denly forgets careful business habits and begins to invest in wildcat stocks, to dissipate and go to pieces generally. The disease is always the result of a long-standing condition, but many pa­ tients appear to be absolutely ignorant of the fact that such a condition bad ever existed. Various remedies have been tested heretofore,- but the dis­ ease has previously been quite hope­ less toytreat. “Just what the effect of the malaria may be is not understood, but it seems to prepare the central nervous system in some way for the beneficial action of the drugs. The drugs fail to pro­ duce benefit unless the patient is pre­ pared for them by the malarial treat­ ment.” Dr. George H. Kirby, who introduced the malaria treatment into the State Hospital for the Insane at Ward’s is­ land, said that the malaria treatment was continuing there with gratifying results, and that some patients who had been treated as long as two’ years ago with malaria and returned to their normal occupations were still at work and showed no signs of the necur- rence of the disease Of Great Importance. “About 15 per cent of the admis­ sions to the Insane hospitals are due ;: School Has One Pupil; j • Teacher Is Her Mother ; Middletown, N.

"The action of the m alaria is very obscure. It may produce resistance In the body which destroys the dis­ ease, or it may attack the disease di­ rectly. It is not porrect to say that It prepares the central nervous sys­ tem for the action of drugs, and there is nothing to show that the malaria itself Is not quite as effective without the help of drugs. “The only useful drug that we have found is the arsenical combination which was produced by the Rockefel­ ler Institute for the treatm ent of Af­ rican sleeping sickness. That has had a good effect- in many cases of paresis. We have been able to discharge a num-N ber of patients who have received this treatment. On the other hand, some patients who were not benefited at all by the Rockefeller product have been greatly improved by the m alaria treat­ ment. “We do not speak of the malaria treatm ent as a cure In any case. It is too early to say that! It does, how­ ever, bring about ayremlsslon of symp­ toms In many cases. It is too soon to tell whether the remission of symp­ toms is permanent or not.” *. a. a :rT T !“I i HOW= :: SCIENTIST INTENDED an REGISTER STARS’ HElT ..

B o d y ’s C h e m i s t r y I s B e i n g S t u d i e d NoveI Field of Research Pennsylvania “U.” at Philadelphia.—A new field of sci­ entific research is being developed by the psychological clinic of the Uni­ versity of Pennsylvania. The introductory course in the new study, called “metabolism and be­ havior,” was completed recently by a class of SO students under the di­ rection of Dr. Henry E. Starr in the department of psychological chemistry and toxicology in the medical school o f the university. “Metabolism and behavior,” a state­ ment given out by the university states, includes a study of the chem­ ical changes taking place in the body, which determine the emotional make­ up, efficency and even the philosophy of life of the individual. The course presented a survey of the field, em­ phasizing research rather than at­ tempting to lay down any premature dogmatic correlation. During the last few years Doctor Starr has conducted a number of bio­ chemical investigations of psycho­ logical problems in co-operation with Prof. Lightner Witmer and Prof. Ed- There Were Giants in Those Days U r - T * xxxx win B. Twitmyer of the department of psychology. W hat is said to have been the most striking work of the chemical changes Is saliva character­ istic of fatigue and eniotionbl excite­ ment. In the course of this research, Doc­ tor Starr said he discovered that, un­ der psychologically controlled condi­ tions, the saliva of an individual may serve as an index to his emotional stability and resistance to fatigue. With the co-operation of Doctor Twit- rnyer, director of the clinic for the correction of speech defects at the university, this method was applied to the study of the metabolic etiology of stammering, involving the examina­ tion of 296 individuals. The findings have been of great value, indicating, it is said, the cura­ tive measures to- be employed in the treatm ent of stammerers thus ex­ amined. Doctor Starr believes that, as a method of investigation, physiological chemistry has proved of Inestimable value to the physician, and should be of equal value to the psychologist With this thought in view, the psy­ chological clinic of the University of Pennsylvania is developing biochem­ ical research of psychological prob­ lems under Its own direction.

Care will be taken to keep well ahead of cold weather, so that the birds can be studied in advance of the migratory period for the American species. - q Crossing the Rio Grande, the party will continue south, gathering data on the species both rare and common to Mexico. While there, the migratory birds of the northland, which will have sought winter quarters, will be closely observed. From the City of Mexico, Professor Nininger will move northward, travel­ ing along the western coast of Mexico and the United i States until the Ca­ nadian border is reached. Colleges and universities along the route in both countries have asked Professor Ninlnger for his disclosures Professor Nlnlnger will make the trip under the auspices of the National Ornithology society, and it is expected to result In the m ost important dis­ coveries in the interests of ornithology. The party will start from western South Dakota and travel In a house- car built especially for the purpose.

Tl.e Iiood ol refugees that poured Into the country after the armistice gravitated to the towns. To deal with this situation Ht administration had recourse to dras­ tic measures and passed a law whH allowed house owners to retain only one room for every member of their families. The other rooms were placed at ’ the disposition of the houseless. At the same time there was passed another-law. which relieved newly built houses from taxation for ten years. In addition, the owner of a new house was allowed to retain all the rooms for his own use. The situation has now become easier and the origin!.! law has been amended, hut those houseowners having persons billeted on. them' very often find it nest to impossible to tyrn them out. How Cold Destroys Tin Extreme cold is known to have tad disastrous effects on tin. In countrits like northern Russia, it is declared that many utensils often become use less in winter.

New models are introduced in mid­ summer and the early shopper finds the smartest models. Although many novelties in pelts have been brought out this season, conservative houses are featuring Hudson seal. The wrap­ around lines promise to have a con­ tinued vogye. weight to fit climatic conditions. This, of course, applies not to clothes to take with One for n . trip with stop­ overs, but to clothes for wear in tran­ s it For the motor, one may attempt a bit more gayety, since the motor Is one’s own possession and not a public place. The plaided wool coat is a sm art and useful version of the coat that ought to be in every woman’s wardrobe. It might be worn over one’s tailleur on the observation platform of the transcontinental train or on the boaft for one's promenade in. cool weather or one’s restorative doze in a deck chair. It will prove invaluable for motoring at night, in the moun­ tains, or by those damp seduetive sea­ side roads that call sov powerfully un­ der the moon. But, there 'are times when all of these things are much too heavy to be worn In transit. Then, the lighter lashera coat suggested- for one’s trip to the Orient next autumn might be useful. Or, if more formality of col­ ors and fabric are required, an ensem­ ble costume of navy blue silk serge will be found ideal.—Vogue.

Xumerous methods have been advo­ cated from time to tiiue for handling broody hens. Almost every one in any neighborhood has a pet pian for break­ ing the hens of this condition, which is guaranteed to work. JIuny of these sire founded on sense and will give re­ sults. while a good many are founded on abuse of the hens, which should not he practiced. One favorite methods we used to have on the farm was to dip the hens In a tub filled with water, says a writer In the Michigan Farmer. We kept them under thg water just as long as we dared without drowning them. This wiis supposed lo. scare the hen so bad­ ly that she forgot about wanting to set. .Sometimes It worked and some- Iiines it didn't. When it. didn't, some­ thing else had to be tried. The broody trait of hens Ir not a “notion” but a natural condition in response Io nat­ ural laws. The longer the liens are tolerated In this condition, the longer it will lie before they return to laying and the less the profit realized from the Investment. It Is foolish to think that mistreat­ ment and abuse which breaks tip the tendency is a wise one. . One idea sometimes used was to starve the hens when they became broody . In order to break them up and get them back to laying. We now know that this was the exact opposite to wliat we should liave done In order to encourage early laying. What is advisable is to feed tlie hens liberally on a good egg ra­ tion which would within a few days liave' Induced the hens to lay. Once laying is resumed the broody trait will disappear. The open-yard method of breaking up broody hens is one of the most hu­ mane treatments we can give tlie fowls and is also most productive of Tesults. The method Is simple. A small area Is fenced off In a grassy and shady corner In which a box is placed for protection in bad weather. The liens are turned loose In this yard and plenty of fresh water and feed is given, and as a rule the broodiness ceases in a short time. Slatted and wire mesh coops in­ doors or out v-orlc fairly well when tlie bird is caught In time, but Ia warm weather do not give satisfaction. Ac­ cording to my judgment, the best method for curing broodiness is the open yard. There is less expense, w.ork and trouble involved in this plan than In any other tried. It breaks up tlie birds more quickly and thus gets them back into tlie laying class with a minimum loss of time. Prevent Limbemeck by Removal of Carcasses If poultrymen would spend a little time In looking over their range dur­ ing the summer months to keep it free from dead carcasses they would un­ doubtedly prevent a great many out­ breaks of so-called • “Hmberneck,” or botulism, In poultry. This Is the advice of Dr. F. It. Beundette, poultry pathologist of the New Jersey agricultural ■ experiment station, who snys: “At this time of the year decom­ position takes place quite rapidly. Flies are attrertfted to carcasses and there lay the eggs which later hatch forth maggots. If these, maggots are eaten by a fowl an outbreak of botu­ lism is very apt to occur. The out­ standing symptom is the Hmberneck, and generally Iiie affected bird shows n bright, red comb. The (temperature of such a bird Is usually always sub­ normal. This fs of considerable im­ portance in making a diagnosis. The disease is not spread from one fowl to another, and therefore can easily be controlled by eliminating the source of poisoning. It is still a ques­ tion whether the maggots themselves are responsible or whether the poison­ ing Is due to the botuliuus toxin which tlie masgot mechanically car­ ries. . , ‘.'Ranges which are overrun with weeds or with anything tli^it would ob­ scure a dead carcass are more dan­ gerous than a range relatively free from .'tali'vegetation; hence, It is a good ifractice to keep weeds mowed during the summer months. Of course there is no donger of botulism In Hocks that are confined to runs. “The disease cannot be cured after marked symptoms have made their ap­ pearance, though mild cases will often make a spontaneous^ recovery. Epsom salts In the usual dose aids In early cases. Confinement in a cool dark place seems' to give good results.” Green Feed for Fowls If possible, rest the poultry yards for a month and grow' a green crop to purify the soil.. A certain amount- of green-food is essential to the health of the poultry. When In addition to the food value, we can have the serv­ ice of purifying the soil, it is thrifty to- sow oats, or wheat, or rye In the poultry yard. Even when the yards canfiot be spared, and the chickens must have their, usual run, by heavy seeding there will be growth enough to benefit the solL Blows its Own Horn.

By COURTNEY RYLEY COOPER © By the Bsll Syndicate, Tna. WNU Service CHAPTER VI—Continued “Just as you please,” the man an­ swered quickly. Bart, still surprised at the quiet manner in which his ulti­ ma tarn had been received, waited on. Everywhere it was the same. Po­ liteness greeted his announcement. Perfect harmony was accorded his or­ der that the town must be rid of its bootleggers, its dance halls, its wom­ en and its gambling by the nest night. What could it mean? What could it portend? “Bull”‘Frannlston had threat­ ened him. in a quiet, determined man­ ner, then strode away as to the carry­ ing out of a purpose. Yet .nowhere that Bart turned had he met opposi­ tion. At last he went baok to the city hall and found Bud Tarko waiting for him with his honorable discharge pa­ pers and other references in his hands. "It's a good thing you’re here.” Bart said with a grim smile. “Your first night on duty’s liable to be any­ thing but a bed of roses.” ‘‘Gosli! Spill the news, Cap'n. Spill the news!” Bart talked—Cf the experiences of the afternoon—and of the queerness of the events that had followed. Tarko cocked his head and nodded with evident glee. “IVliat do you sup­ pose is in the wind?” he questioned. ‘‘I don’t know. But I believe we’d better work in double harness until midnight, anyway. “Bull” Franniston threatened me this afternoon—I’m sure, too, that he passed the word not to start any trouble If I "came around again. BuJ why—” "Don’t know. Certainly looks funny!’’ Eleven o’clock came and went. Then midnight. The crowd had begun to thin —an hour or so more and the street would be deserted by all save a few. Bart turned to his deputy. “It looks like we were wrong,” came hie conclusion. “If you think you can handle things all right now, I'll turn In.” “Sure.” Bud Tarko squinted down the street. “Nothing doing around here a-tall. I’ll trot down to the coop and see how our chicken is.” “Sure.” They parted, Tarko to stroll once more down the street before go­ ing to the little Jail, Bart to turn toward his hotel. In his room, tired after his long first day in 'Iiis new Job, wondering a bit as to what the next' 24 hours would hrlng, Bart drew a ohair to the window and sat there for a half-hour or so, merely resting be­ fore going to bed. Then suddenly he straightened. From the distance had come the faint sound of voices—raised in anger. Higher, more strident they became. Then—a shot! with two more follow­ ing In quick succession! It was enough for Bart Rogers. A leap and he had made the door, to race down the narrow hallway to the stairs, and with a few bounds gain the steps. There was no need to stop for a sense of direction—be had recognized the location immediately. The jail! Bart suddenly saw Bud Tarko. “Tarkp!” he called. “Tarko—what’s happened?" “They got me!” came through thick, bruised lips. “Got me from behind. Jiast as I w*g turning Into the jail. I—I fought the best I knew but I couldn’t keep going. Then some one hit me from behind and I went out. They must have carried me away from the jail—when I got my senses back, one of 'em was standing over me down by the stationl Then somebody yelled to him and he ran. After that—look!” The reeling form of Bud Tarko broke from the grasp of his supporter, and drunkenly, an unsteady hand pointing toward the little city hall and jail. But Bart had little need of the gesture. The hitherto dark little City hall suddenly had become light, with a menacing brightness. The windows were gleaming. Smoke had begun to swirl about the building; from within there glowed the swift licking flames which Bart Rogers knew only too well spelled but one thing—incendiarism! you’re tellin’ a good one, ain’t you? You—” “Here!” A man rose in the auto­ mobile, and in the glare of the flames, Bart saw the narrow-featured gambler he had arrested that afternoon. “Bull” waved a hand. “How about this? Who turned you loose?" “That fellow there.” “You mean this deputy?” “Yeh. Then, Just as I was coming out, he happened to see Rocky Jamison here, passing the jail on tlie way home, and iie deliberately pulled out his gun and shot him. I jumped on him about that time, and -then you fellows came along. He set the place on fire, too.” Gasping, goggle-eyed, the elongated Bud Tarko reeled forward, his bloody fists clenched, his arms churning bel­ ligerently. “I can whip the dirty pup that start­ ed that lie!” “Tarko!” Bud had caught him by the arm. “Stay back here!’’ He dragged his deputy to safety, then turned again to “Bull” Frannlston. “If we did all this, why do you stand here"telling us about it?” he demand­ ed. “Why don’t you—” But “Bull" Franniston had sneered. “I just wanted you to know that you needn’t think you're going to get away with anything. That’s all. Now If you think you can, just start out and try it!” He re-entered the automobile then. A moment later he was gone, leaving the two men staring almost vacuously after him. Bart then assisted the in­ jured man to a passing automobile, CHAPTER VII Sheriff Graham. There was no need tor questions. “Bull” Franniston and his henchmen simply had waited until the right and proper moment for the carrying out of their schemes—then forced them through to a conclusion. Franolston suddenly drove up. “Nice little frame-up you’ve pulled, ain't It?” be sneered. “But It doesn't go! Understand that? It doesn’t goi "Think we’re not wise to you, eh?

See if you’ve got the gameness to come out In the open and admit that you tried to frame up’on a bunch of decent, respectable sjiow people to­ night, that you had this deputy of yours open up the Jall and let out a prisoner, and then deliberately shot an Innocent man, to make It appear that—" “Where do you get that stuff?" The accusation had given Bud Tarko sud­ den strensrth “VVhlle ron’re I yin’. Hurrying Through the Night. and had him taken to his room. There lie gave the dilapidated Tarko into #he keeping of the landlord and called a. physician. Following this he re­ turned to the fire, and sought the mayor. The city hall was doomed. Bart wormed his way until he reached the mayor’s side, there to tell his story, and to receive the encouraging news for which he had hoped. ‘Lies!” came tersely from the old cattleman^ serious and grlm-featured for once In his life. “D—n lies—every word of it. Go get the sheriff on the wire and tell him that I said to send you help. No, better than that, get a horse or an automobile and go see him. Lay the whole thing before him and tell him that I want action! Un­ derstand?” Bart nodded and turned swiftly away. Five minutes later, he was at a garage, demanding a car—only to learn that such a thing was unavail­ able. He turned toward the livery stable, and hurriedly assisted ih the saddling of a horse. Then, out over the prairie he started, the glow of the flames lighting his way, on the begin­ ning of the 20-mile ride to Mannlng- ton. Ten miles and he drew aside, as the blazing headlights of a hurrying ma­ chine dazzled him for a moment, then swept past on the road to Bellaine. An hour more'and he swung from his horse before the sheriff’s office1' In Man- nington. But this time the- office was bright­ ly lighted. No man dozed In a chair. Instead, as he turned on to the walk leading to the office, Bart saw through the window that the sheriff was awake, and alert, leaning over his desk and talking almost excitedly Into the telephone. The receiver clicked to its hook as he entered, and the sheriff faced- him. “Where’d you come from?” he ques­ tioned sharply. “Bellaine. I’m Marshal Rogers, and I’ve a message froln the mayor.” "Mayor, huh? To help him out on some of his frameups? What have you people been pulling off over there?" , The Implied accusation In the sher­ iff’s voice took Bart off his guard for a moment.. He hesitated. Then— “How’s chances on enforcing a lit­ tle law and order?” he asked. "That’s exactly what I am doing.” “Very well, then. Send enough men to Bellaine to drive out the booties- gers, the gamblers, the tin-horn sports and sure-thing men. Incidentally, see what you can do about the klng-pln of them all, ‘Bull’ Frannlston." The sheriff rose from his desk and walked forward. “I'd be a HttIe careful about how I made accusations, young fellow," he said rather caustically.' “In the first place, you’re the one who's been ac­ cused, you know, not Mr. Frannls­ ton.” “I?” Staring surprise swept Rogers’ face. “What—” He stopped. The door had opened and a dusty deputy had entered,, slap­ ping his wide-brimmed hat again,st his thighs. “Got that fellow out there who pulled that shooting,” he announced. “He’s in pretty bad shape. What’ll I do with him?” The sheriff turned. “Put him in the big cell where he’ll have plenty of-light and air and no kick that we pulled third-degree meth­ ods on him," came Ills command. “I’ve talked to the district attorney. He says to book him for investigation to­ night and that he’ll make out the in­ dictment against him first thing in the morning. t “All right.” The deputy had seated himself at the desk. “I'll just make out a memorandum of it, to remind him.” “Good. Put it there on . my hook. Now—” and he turned back to Rog­ e r s —“as for you, just put it under your hat to walk straight and narrow, or I’ll have you in here too! • Malte all the charges you want to, call me every name you can think of—the more the better. That doesn’t inter­ fere with me enforcing the law, and I’d Just as soon arrest you as your deputy!’’ “My deputy?" Then the eyes of Bart caught the writing of the nota­ tion which the undersherilt was hang­ ing on the hook. It read : “Bud Tarko, deputy marshal, Bel­ laine, Wyo. Charge, arson and assault with intent to kill.” A half-hour later Bart found him­ self again on his horse, hurrying through the night ‘on the return to Bellaine. t In the first place, he knew' that he could look for no aid from Sheriff Gra­ ham of Mannington. On the contrary, the arrest, of Bud Tarko, on the com­ plaint of Frannlston and his crew, was extremely good evidence that the sher­ iff would be a hindrance and not a help. With the thought Bart straight-, ened in his saddle and whistled slowly. Was that the reason why every gam­ bler, every woman of uncertain mor­ als, every con man and crook knew in advance the name of “Bull” Fran­ nlston as the man between, the per­ son who would take their tribute and In return be able to guarantee them safety from arrest? An hour, later Bart had told the whole story to Tom Jordan, the mayor. “Walt until I get my check book,” he finally announced. “I’ll put my signature on. a few pieces of paper and give 'em to you. Then I want you to take my machine and go back to Man­ nington; use my name at the bank, and make arrangements to have ’em call me If there’s any difficulty. When Tarko comes up for arraignment, bail him put! and do it if It costs twenty- five thousand. In the meanwhile I’ll see what I can do about getting my lawyer In Cheyenne to come on here— and then we’ll have a little battling from a legal standpoint.” Then Bart spoke, his hands half- raised and clenched, his eyes glisten­ ing with new hope, new enthusiasm. “I’ll be blamed If we’re whipped yet!” he half-shouted. “If I can get Tarko out and bring him back here, and If he’s <half the man I think he Is, mayor, we’ve just begun to fight!” “What Is it? Speak It up, son!” “I can’t !" The features of Bart. Rogers were1 beaming. “But it’s a hunch—and if it pans out— ! Qiye me those checks! Tell me where I can get that machine! I want to get on the road and start thinking over the details!" (TO BE CONTINUED.) Mistaken Idea That Moon Rises in East It you were asked where the moon' rises you would probably say, “IhJthe east.” And you would be wrong. True, we see it coming up above the eastern _horIzon at night, but that Is simply because the earth, by turning In Its direction, brings it Into view. In reality, the moon “rises" In the west. If there Is any ddubt on the point, all that It is ' necessary to- do Is to watch its progress across the sky night after night. It would seem rto be moving from right to left; that is, from west to east. The stars prove this. One night it will be near a star In the west and the next night near another star a good way to the left, or east; then farther to the east *he following night, and so on. The inoon, in short, has risen come tip out of the west, and Is Jour­ neying across the sky to the east Nothing is more easily demonstrated because the stars themselves are ther« to mark the trade. Results of Soft Pork Experiments Government and State Rep­ resentatives Agree on Certain Findings. {P re p ared h r «t» United States Department ot Agriculture.) A t a meeting held In A tlanta, Ga., recently, representatives of the U nited States Departm ent o f A griculture and of a number o f state experim ent sta­ tions agreed to certain conclusions on the so ft pork problem . IT ie lr an­ nouncements" made below are based apon the evidence accumulated In re­ cent years, Including additional data made available during the past 12 months. The states represented a t the conference were Alabama, Arkansas, Georgia, M ississippi, N orth Carolina, South Carolina, Tennessee, V irginia, Pennsylvania and Indiana. In addi­ tion there were men from the U nited States Departm ent of A griculture, in ­ cluding those from the departm ent’s. Coastal Plain experim ent station in Mississippi and Its Iberia live stock experiment farm In Louisiana. Effects of Rice Bran. The firs t results regarding the effects o f rice bran on the softness o f car­ casses were incorporated fo r this year fo r the first time. 1Jhe conclusions agreed upon are as follow s: 1. Peanuts grazed or self-fed in dry lot w ith or w ithout m inerals to pigs starting at weights ranging from 85 to 115 pounds and m aking gains o f ap­ proxim ately 40 pounds or more on .that feed through a period o f ,approxim ately eight weeks w ill not produce firm car­ casses at the usual m arket .weight of 200 to 225 pounds attained by subse­ quent feeding o f corn w ith tankage a fte r the peanuts. Results have shown, in fact, that gain on corn w ith tankage up to ap proxim ately 120 pounds, this maximum being produced during a feeding period of approxim ately 16 weeks’ duration, follow ing gains of 40 pounds or more on peanuts, usually w ill not produce hard or medium hard hogs. As the gain on peanuts increases the subse­ quent gain on corn w ith tankage neces­ sary to produce a certain degree of firmness likew ise Increases. 2. Soy beans grazed alone or w ith ftiinerals self-fed to pigs starting at weights ranging from 85 to 160 pounds and m aking a t least a moderate rate of gain through a period o f from six to eight weeks w ill not produce firm carcasses in the usual case even though a subsequent gain in weight lias been made by the pigs on corn w ith tankage double that previously made on soy beans. 3. Soy beans grazed w ith a supple­ mentary ration of 21/<> .per cent of shelled corn,w ith o r n itlio u t m inerals self-fed to pigs starting at weights ranging from 85 to 115 pounds and m aking gains o f approxim ately 20 to CO pouuds through a period o f from six to eight weeks w ill not produce firm carcasses in the usual case even though ^a subsequent gain In weight has been' made by the pigs on corn w ith tankage equal to that previously made on the soy-bean 2>4 per cent corn ration. The Heavier Plg3. 4. Soy bean's grazed w ith a supple­ mentary ration o f 2 per cent of slielled corn w ith or w ithout m inerals self-fed to pigs starting at weights of Ho pounds and over and m aking gains of approxim ately 40 to 90 pounds through a period o f from six to eight week's w ill produce Ann carcasses In the usual case provided a subsequent gain In weight is made on corn w ith tankage one and one-lialf times that previously made on the soy-bean 2 fa per cent corn ration. 5. Rice bran and tankage self-fed free choice on rye pasture or in dry lot and w ith or w ithout a supplement of five pounds or less o f slslm m ilk per animal daily to pigs starting a t weights under 100 pounds and m aking gains up to 100 pounds through a feeding period o f from eight to sixteen weeks produce soft carcasses. 6. Rlce polish and tankage self-fed free choice on oat or rye pasture or in dry lo t to pigs starting at weights un­ der 100 pounds and m aking gains of 35 pounds or more through a period of from five to eight weeks w ill not produce firm carcasses in the usual case even though a subsequent' gain In weight has been made by the pigs on corn u ith tankage equal to that pre­ viously made on the rice polish ration. Getting More Money for Eggs in Summer Season Without a little effort the quality of summer eggs is likely to be so low that prices will decline rapidly. The poor quality of the eggs laid In hot weather is largely to blame for the low summer price of eggs. Several precautions are necessary to keep up the quality of the summer egg. The following are important: 1. Segregate all males, even the spring cockerels. An infertile e°g keeps better., 2. Gatiier eggs twice daily, If pos­ sible, during hot days, and store In a cool, well-ventilated Placelj free from stfong odors. * S. During hot weather, market eees twice a week. 4. Keep broody hens off the nests. 5. Sell no eggs from stolen nests. Use them, as well as small, dirty and cracked eggs, at home. 6. Supply at least one nest with clean straw for every six hens. Where these precautions are ad­ hered to, a reliable dealer should nav a premium for the better quality of esgs produced.—Estensioa Service ofI1Urdue University. Chickens and Cattle Tested at Same Time Veterinarians Coxribine Tu­ berculin Inspection. (Prepared Iiy the United States Department ot AerlcuUure.) Veterinarians engaged in the tuber­ culin testing of cattle In Green Lake county, Wisconsin, huve found It pos­ sible to Inspect the poultry Bocks on the farms visited without slowing up the regular cattle-testing work. This Is significant, says the United States Departmept of Agriculture, when it is realized- that there is no special fed­ eral appropriation for conducting a campaign against avian tuberculosis, and that the poultry floclss of the coun­ ty must be cleaned up along with the herds of cattle if the eradication of the disease is to remain permanent., Operating in the regular way, the veterinarians In Green Lake county inspected 1,032 flocks on the farms visited for cattle testing. They found 153 flocks Infected, and the remainder apparently free from the disease. Two hundred and eighteen postmortems., slightly more thfjn one in each infect­ ed flock, were held. Altogether, it was estimated, more than 72.000 fowls were inspected. An estimation of the extent of tuber­ culosis among the poultry flocks of the country shows the disease varying from I to 15 per cent. A definite effort to inspect poultry was begun In February. In the vari­ ous states during the first two months pf the work 46,665 flocks were inspect­ ed, 2,565 of which were found to be lit fected. It is estimated that nearly 3.-, 000,000 fowls were Inspected during this period. Young Alfalfa Plants Hurt by Nurse Crops Many a good stand of spring-sown alfalfa is mined by allowing the nurse crops of onts or barley to mature fot grain. ■"The young alfalfa plants are liter­ ally choked to deatli_for want ,of wa­ ter,” says faeorge W. Musgrave, agrono­ mist at the New Jersey Agricultural Experiment station. Tlie ripening grain, he explains, draws an enormous amount of water from the soil, thus famishing the feeble young alfalfa plants. Though this moisture robbery Is the chief objection to letting the nurse crop mature for grain, it is not the only one, according to Profesor Mus- grpve. There is also the .possibility of fatal Injury to the alfalfa, through lodging of the ripening fruit. Successful alfalfa growers cut the grain for hay just as soon as it heads out. Not only may a satisfactory quality of grain hay be secured at this time, but the crowding effect on the alfalfa, seeding is removed and the alfalfa Is given the opportunity to de­ velop properly. The main object in planting the grain is to secure a successful alfalfa stand; one should take no chances on losing his investment in inortilation. seed and labor, through losing slghtgpf this fact. It is a niiglity poor economy to try ,to use tlie oats or barley as a grain crop as well as a nurse crop. Careful With Pullets, to Avoid Molt in Fall Farm poultry producers who hatch chickens early in order to get . a fall egg production from their pullets while tbeir liens are molting, must handle the pullets carefully to avoid a molt In the fall, according to H. W. Fitting of Purdue university in reply to ques­ tions on this subject. Tlie pullets should have been hatched so they will mature and start laying around October I. This means about six months for the lighter breeds such as Leghorns and seven months or a little over for the 'heavier breeds such as Rhode Island Reds,» Plymouth Rocks and others. A good plan that prevents too rapid development Is to feed the.grain as well as masli In a self-feeder after tlie cockerels have been marketed. When pullets' combs are reddening materially. It Is well to remove some or ail of the animal protein from -the mash. How­ ever, if this Is done, more minerals should be added to take the place of that which was contained in the ani­ mal protein. Once a pullet is mature, egg production cannot be delayed. , ElBM VkCTSfc Market all broilers as early as pos­ sible. * * • Keep brooding baby chicks until they are fully feathered. * * • Turkeys are seed and insect.eaters and do not thrive ,on sloppy mashes. Timid hens do not get their (share of the feed and are seldom heavy layers. • * • It doss not pay to grow low-priced crops on high-priced land, nor vice versa. • * » Stale bread soaked in milk and squeezed nearly dry is a good first feed for poults. This is followed with fine chick scratch feed and larger grains as the poults develop. Don t make the hens eat quack gras9 In the summer. Swiss chard is a fine summer green feed Wheni plenty of ten­ der grass is lacking. A lOO-foot row. of swiss chard will keep 20 liens In green feed all summer.

Thousands of Americans, who want to see how real western cowhands live and play, are planning to attend the Chicago Roundup and World’s Cham­ pionship Rodeo beginning August 15. Cowboys from every part of the West will be on hand for this great western spectacle, which will he held under the auspices of the Chicago Association of Commerce. For nine days Chicago’s big Grant Park Stadium will look like a scene from the “Covered Wagon days” as the scores of expert bronk riders, lariat throwers and steer wrestlers show their stuff while competing for $30,000 prize money and world ! championship titles. Tex Austin, who has staged so many successful contests. I Including the great International contest at Wembley, England, will direct the Chicago event. Anent The “Ape Law.” There in in the country not a few teachers wh ) seem to take delight in shocking the religi mss- ns’biliiits of their Siud nts, and who make a practice of saving LliingS about the Curi tian religion or about the church which c mnot fail to confuse their parents. There are many of our university professors who are lacking in common sense. They ‘ know how to tear down, but do not know ho w to build up They having a smattering of scieij?e, and pro­ ceed on the assumption that they : know everything. Leaving their MAGIC OF RODEO ROPERS Wizards with Iron wrists, who can send a lasso snapping ^lirougli the ulr with the accuracy of a ride bullet, will work their magic when famous ropers w ill meet at the Chicago Roundup and World’s Championship Rodeo to be held for nine days, beginning August 15. A good portion of the prizes put up by the-Chicago Association of Commerce, under whose auspices the cowboy con­ tests will be held, is set aside for the ropers. Champions, past and present, have written Tex Austin, that they will be on hand to compete for the awards and the world’s championship title. Austin, who has put on many big rodeos, will direct.the Chicago contests. A steer or calf in action makes remarkable speed and to send the loop of the lariat whipping through the air and to have it land unerringly around horns or neck is one of the most difficult of cowboy feats. To do this and then to throw and tie the animal (must be the work of only a few seconds The experts are bringing their own roping ponies, so Intelligent and highly trained that some are almost priceless.

' ‘'This type of teacher is found e» rywhi re, and it is because of this hilf-baked and bumpticus type of pedagogic mind that many religious people in various parts of the coun- t y have become disgusted with this insolence and irreverence, and are readj;to take swift ^nd summary vengeance on these miscreants who have palmed off their speculants and theories upon youthful minds not ytt prepared to pass sound judg­ ment on them.

Tennessee will have to see the day when her law will seem to her ridiculous The reckless upstarts who |creep into teachers chairs will some day be weeded out or will learn to be more consirate in the methods of their teaching.

The Southern, ntever yet able to control all the new capital its management would be • pleased to invest, necessarily has to give i preference to productiveimprovements, such I as yards, shops, engines, cars and tracks. : But it is because it has devoted its resources : to necessities—rather than non-productive . improvements like monumental passenger ’ stations—that the Southern has been able to . keep its service abreast of the demands of - ' the territory it serves. * * T h e n e t incom e earned b y th e S ou the rn R a ilw a y C om pany on He p ro p e rly in ve stm e n t has averaged o n ly 3 72% per annum d u rin g tiie la s t te n years.
