thirty seventh In size, Indiana rank't| eleventh In population compared to, oilier states of the union. Inspite of ranking sixteenth In proportion to! rural population It ranks about tenth in density' (11.3 persons per squar■ mile). • This, says the Hand Hook o( Indiana Geology, a publication of the stale conservation department and of which Dr. W. I.ogan, state geologist N one of the authors, is because, although slightly more of the people live in cities, (GO per cent), many other slates, with larger cities, have a larger proportion living in cities of more than 2,500. Indiana, however, is nearly average in regard lo proportion of of rural and urban population. The United States as a whole had r>l. 4 per cent of Its population living fn cities In 1920. Though often surpassed by five states in the area planted to corn, la dlana ranks with Illinois and lowa us a corn state when total area Is eon ' sidered. In average yield of corn per square mile, Indiana surpasses these slates and the other three, Missouri, Nebraska and Kansas, which often has more acres planted to corn than Indiana. In wheat production, Indiana ranks Bth among the states when area is considered. However, in proportion to total area, Indiana usually ranks 3rd, being exceeded only by North Dakota and Kansas in the average yield of wheat per square mile of total area. In oats production, Indiana 1 ranks 4th when area is considered, though seventh when area Is ignored. —_____o DO IT TODAY—DON’T PUT IT OFF Insure before it’s too late —I handle all kinds of accident and sick policies.

Don’t forget to attend the gam" I Thanksgiving Day. Nine Yellow Jackets will |day their last game for old 1). 11. S. that day. The best way I lor the fans to show their appreciation for the services that the nine boys have rendered for their alma i mater is to lie on the sidelines cheerling for them in their last battle. Van Wort sure had a nice little surprise Saturday. The following paraI graph appeared in the Van Wert Times Saturday: “It was generally believed that Van Wert would add a large number of points to the 222 the h team has made already this season." Our arithmetic says that 222 plus 0 | makes 222. Those who saw the game say that I Van Wert has the strongest team that I the Yellow Jackets have played this | season. If they had played against the Peru team a week ago like they did against Van Wert, there is little question but that the Wabash Valiev conference championship cup would he reposing in this city. Bobby Starr, who conducts a basketball column in the Frankfort Morning Times under the head, "What the Stars Say,” cracked this one: “Willie Punt is the name of a col unin in the Decatur Democrat. Unless he did yesterday he won’t until next year, we’ll say.” We still have a chance on Thanksgiving Day, Bobby. Whether we do or don’t on that day, we will he with you In basketball on the following day. Yes, Outta, we’ll be there when hostilities start in the Decatur Headers Phi Delt battle tomorrow night. Iywk for us in the third row of section ”D." ! Ross Hurd, our Huntington friend, boasts of the fact that his fair city supports four basketball teams, namely, the Buddies, legion. High School and Huntington College. Well, l Ross, we have the Leaders, the General Electric five, the High school and | the Catholic high school. And we haven’t near as big a metropolis as you have. Remember the Turkey Day game. Indiana added another victory to her string of wins over Purdue Saturday defeating the Boilermakers, 3-0> in the annual home-coming game at Indiana. Wilkens, Fort Wayne boy, booted over a pretty dropklck from the 43-yard line in the third quarter. Purdue has failed to beat Indiana since 1915. Hats off to Michigan and "Hurry

( Up" Yost, their coach. With five 'regulars and six substitutes, the Wolverines beat the powerful Mlnne 1 aotu eleven at Ann Arbor Saturday, 10-0 and remained In a He with Illinois for the conference championship. A team Is no stronger than Its subs, and Michigan’s subs were there with the goods. HUNTING licenses , Resident Hunting and Fishing Licenses Are Good For 365 Days Indianapolis, Nov. 26. (Special T> Daily Democrat).—lndiana resident bunting and fishing licenses are good for 366 days of Issue counts ns one day, George N. Mannfehl, chief of the fish and game division of the state (conservation department, says in re'ply lo numerous queries whether a (license Issued late in the year expires ! with the end of the calendar year. (New resident hunting and fishing licenses have (he figures "1923" print ed across the face, Munnfeld says, and this is probably responsible for tho popular belief they expire on September 39. end of the statics fiscal year. Mr. Munnfeld made It plain today in si number of letters sent to residents of southern Indiana that If they shoot ducks on the Ohio river they should first take out a non-resident hunting license from the state of Kentucky This is true regardless if they are Indiana residents and hunting on the Indiana side. tmmmmmmmmmmmmaamtaumam Shooting Match Thanksgiving ' All Day Nov. 29th Turkovs—Goose Ducks and Chickens Matches for till Gauge guus.
