Mr. George Kinzle, master of the Decatur Masonic lodge, has returned from Indianapolis, where he attended the annual meeting of the state lodge. The most important action taken was the increase of she minimum fee for joining the Blue Lodge to $30.00, instead of $20.00. In Decatur the fee has been $25.00 for some years, and it is probable that the new rate of admission jvill be fixed at $35.00. The minimum of $30.00 will not be effective until the new order has been received. In the meantime the applications taken will be at the old price, $25.00. FROM JOHNNY'S TOWN.

The fund has been of great aid to the unfortunate family. ROOSTER WEEK. JUNE 2-7, 1919 The leading poultry interests of Indiana are endeavoring to co-operate with fanners in an effort to assist ► them in the production of infertile eggs, by offering a premium price, on all the roosters in the farm flock. The farmer is primarily the poultry producer of the state and the government estimates that 17 eggs out of every 100 marketed during this season of the year is unfit fqr food by the time it reaches the consumer. This loss is largely due to the fertility of the eggs, since infertile eggs keep much longer and are desirable for packing I purposes. Roosters are not essential to egg production and as the hatchi ing season is almost over, farmers are urged to separate their roosters from their hens and sell all those not desirable for breeding purposes next spring. The Decatur Produce Company. will pay 18 cents per pound for roosters next week and the company l is ery anxious tn purchase every I rooster they can buy because they realize that by doing sc they will be able to obtain a much better grade of eggs and will be in osition to compensate the producer accordingly.

Mr. Foreman, who is a postman in Allentown, Fa., says "The shoes with Neolin Soles gave me continuous service for 9% months, during which time I averaged 18 miles a day. Ordinary < soles last me about one month.” I If you are hard on shoes, fellow Mr. . Foreman’s example and buy them with i Neolin Soles.
