ATTENTION, BASKET BALL ENTHUIASTS ( -- ■ Representatives from every team desiring admission to a city basketball league, are requested to attend a meeting to be held Thursday evening at the rooms of the Decatur Industrial association between 7:30 and 8:00 o’clock. Teams not represented will probably not secure a place in the league, as there are many clamoring for admission. Schedules will probably be arranged, as will also the practice hours. Games will start soon." J. F. Hocker of Monroe was in Decatur on business this morning. HELP FOR CHILDREN ASKED AT CHRISTMAS SPLENDID WAY TO CELEBRATE CHRISTMAS IS TO ASSIST IN ESTABLISHING RILEY HOSPITAL. An appeal to the people of Indiana to help the sick and crippled children of the state by making donations to the James Whitcomb Riley hospital for Children at Christmas time has just been issued by the James Whitcomb Riley Memorial Association. A careful study of conditions throughout Indiana indicate that 10,000 children need the care and treatment which the Riley Children’s hospital will afTord to the children of the Btate free of charge. Money is needed for the building fund and it is hoped that the response during the holiday season will be so generous that the hospital can be built early next spring. “We believe the people of Indiana will welcome the opportunity .to contribute to the building fund for this hospital which will do such a great work, free of charge, for the needy children of Indiana,” says the official announcement of the Riiey Memorial Association. “There could be no more appropriate way to celebrate Christmas than by including a gift for the Children’s hospital.” Send Donations Now. Many communities throughout the state will plan campaigns to raise funds for the hospital during the holiday season. A donation blank will be printed in many of the newspapers. Contributions should be mailed direct to the Riley Memorial Association, 18 East Vermont St., Indianapolis. Every dollar contributed will be applied to the hospital building fund. One of the stanch friends of the Riley Children’s hospital is Governor McCray. The Indiana Child’s Wel-j fare Association also has given the hospital its hearty approval as have, many other organizations. It is hoped \ that many Hooslers will include the Riley hospital in their Christmas do- 1 nations.

EFFECTS OF DAMAGED CORN ON HOGS AND CATTLE 1 ho prevalence of a large amount of damaged corn this year has caused uneasiness on the part of stock feeders as to whether harmful results will follow the feeding of moldy or wormeaten corn. A study of this question has been made at the l’urdue University Agricultural Experiment Station with different lots of cattle and hogs. Results of experiments recently completed and others In progress indicate that damaged corn—the damage being due either to corn ear worm or to the different varieties of mold—ls less harmful to either cattle or hogs. Moldy corn is dangerous to cattle. Some animals are very susceptible while others are apparently resistant to its effects. Presence of grass in the llelds so that the animals have some succulent feed seems to act as a partial preventive. The danger Is greatest when the damaged corn Is fed exclusively in large quartlties. Limited quantities of damaged corn In connection with good feeds may not be injurious Indications of injury due to moldy corn are usually seen within three to ten days after turning the cattle into the corn field. If there is a considerable quantity of grass in the field, symptoms may not appear until aftjor the grass Is consumed. Characteristic symptoms of this disease are lack of control over the muscles with a peculiar frightened expression of the i eye. The animals appear to be somewhat intoxicated and walk with a stiff | awkward gait. When down, they have 1 great difficulty in regaining their feet | especially if they are excited. The I temperature is practically normal. | The animals may take a small amount j of nourishment and drink water sparingly. Exposure greatly increases danger to affected animals. Stock j found in this condition should be removed at once to dry comfortable ! quarters. They should not' again he returned to the corn field until the moldy corn has been consumed by j non susceptible animals. The experiments with moldy corn J will be continued with the hope of securing further information to heip 1 overcome the damages from this source. Horses and sheep will be i used in addition to cattle and hogs.

PATRICK J. HALEY, Syracuse, N. Y. “I’m feeling like u new man since Tanlac soothed and toned up my stomach and for the first time in 40 years can eat a hearty meal and suffer no distress afterwards," was the remarkable statement o# Patrick J. Haley, 107 Prospect Ave., Syracuse, N. Y., a well-known iron and steel worker: "Only those who have had stomach trouble in a had form can know i what I suffered during all those year. I was almost a nervous wreck, too, and for years I didn’t know what It was to get a good sound sleep at night. “I got new life and energy from each dose of Tanlac and now I’m a well and happy man instead of a sick and miserable one as I was for so many years. I'll vouch for the merit of Tanlac at any time.” Tanlac is sold in Decatur by Smith, Yager & Falk’s and by leading druggists everywhere. 0 ■ , ■■ — FEDERAL MONEY READY FOR HIGHWAY WORK Washington, Dec. 13. —Os the $75,000,000 appropriated for Federal aid in highway construction provided in the act of November 9th last, $24,375,000 is now available and $47,750,000 will be available on January Ist, next, according to figures furnished by Col.

former acts giving Federal aid In highway construction, a total of f 141.025,000. It Is expected that the various States will match these funds to the extent of at least $125,000,000. making tho total Federal aid road work for 1922 more than $250,000,000. Thu Bureau of Public Roads line figures showing that other States and county road construction, In which the Federal Government will not participate, will bring the grand total to approximately $050,000,000 for 1922 This does not Include street construe ,
