CONGRESSIONAL PROBLEMS:— Congress seems getting every day ' into deeper and deeper water. There 1 is apparently no longer any thought of adjournment, or even of a recess The senate problem, which seem t ohave been agreed on, is enough to occupy tho time of a whole see . sion, including as it does boiiu.-, . legislation, coal emergency mea- j, ures the Capper-Tincher grain fu- , tures trading bill, the Liberian loan.i and the Dyer anti-lynching bill. Not , one of these measures is unopposed. 1 . atid it Is certain that they will all b> i < debated at considerable length. Mem-1 bers are far apart—and far apart I from the President —on coal and bonus legislation. There is strong an-j 1 tagonism, as shown by the vote.; it

yesterday In the house, to any further extension of government activity in the lino of fixing the price of coal, or of anything else. There is, too, strong opposition to any bonus plan yet suggested. As if this were not enough, there is still tho tariff bill to deal with. Here the differences between the two houses are many and serious. It is hoped that, luring the consideration of the senate program —of width the tariff bill is not a part—it will be possible to spare some time for a consideration of conference reports on the bill. Thus the burden grows heavier the longer congress is in session, and the situation more perplexing and uncertain as election day approaches, it is a trying experience for members who would like to give some attention to the cam paign that is shortly to open. It is unfortunate for the country that all these important mattery should have to be dealt with at a time when the judgment of members is so greatly perturbed by political considerations. But this must sometimes — indeed often — happen in democracies, and the people can only hope that an effort will be made to seek the best and wisest solution with as little regard as may be to political considerations. For the issues are of vital importance, and unwise action in regard to them will have consequences that may be felt for generations.—lndianapolis News. The state tax levy for 1923 will be around twenty-nine cents on the hundred dollars, an increase of about live cents over this year. That’s a poor way to get back to normalcy and soon the people will be convinced that they do not want a continuance of it.

Local taxes will be reduced next year and it’s a funny thing that the state finds it necessary to boost the levy again. An increase was made by the state in the levy this year and with the contemplated boost of five cents again next year the state’s tax will almost have been doubled in the last two years. Too many boards and extravagant office holders in Indian apolis is what costs money. The senate passed the soldiers’ compensation or bonus bill yesterday by a vote of 47 to 22, carrying with it four billion dollars with which to meet the provisions contained in th measure. Twenty-seven senators did not vote on the important measure and at the last minute against the will of the President, Senator Watson of Indiana, joined the ranks of those in favor of the bill and cast his vote likewise. Senator New voted against the measure. Party lines were wiped out in the vote and twenty of the democratic senators voted with the i epubiieaas. i'iie bill now goes to President Harding and it is feared that he will veto it. In the primary last spring when Senator New was running for renomination against Albert J. Beveridge, his advertisements were fille t with mushy words for the soldiers and lead the public to believe that he was a friend of the soldier. Yester-

Get More Eggs this Fall and Winter! The one great mistake most poultry raisers make is in the idea that scratch feeds make eggs, and this accounts for their failure to get eggs in the winter and fall. Scratch feeds do not make hens lay. Just so long as you make scratch feed the bulk of your hen’s ration, you will fail to get eggs. Scratch feed is for the hen’s bodily maintenance—to make her exercise, scratch-to satisfy her while on the roost, and not to make eggs. The feed that will make hens lay abundantly must be a soft feed, finely ground and correctly balanced—a feed composed of materials like hens pick up in the Spring, when their egg production is highest. I?UL'O“PEp 1. DRY W 7 MASH JT The Great Oatmeal Poultry Feed is that kind of a feed—compounded along nature’s lines—made solely to make hens lay. It is a combination of proven egg making materials with several other valuable ingredients which come as near nature’s egg-making food as it is possible for expert knowledge, science and experience to produce. To get more eggs. Feed FUL-O-PEP DRY MASH —all your hens will eat. Keep it where they can gefcit all the time, MAjiyad’ and feed Ful-O-Pep Scratch Feed about an hour before they go to roost—then you’ll get eggs and lots of them. We guarantee it. kpCjf PRODUCED BX The Quaker Oats Company Address: Chicago, U. S. A. vx\\v . N-5 FOR SALE BY Wholesale Distributors Kraus & Apfelbaum. Fort Wayne, Indiana Local Dealer L. R.
