Dairy Day is over | and the next thing on the program is I the election. » Senator Robinson w ill probably not ; go into details about the state scandal or give you the inside story of his appointment when he speaks here , Friday afternoon. We appreciate the assistance given , by the merchants and citizens, by the j women who aided yesterday, by the . I ozen men who headed the com- , mittees and those who worked with them to make Dairy Day a long to be remembered occasion. We cannot mention you all personally, but we ( thank you. The ground used for the Dairy Day ( celebration was being cleared today. ( the tents removed and the debris dis- ( posed of. The committee will meet ( this week and allow all bills and . make a complete report which will be , published that you may all know just how the funds were expended. With the Marion county grand jury ' and the senate committee investigat- 1 Ing the Indiana political situation there ought to be no famine of head-, lines during the next few weeks. There's an awful lot of smoke and of course must be some fire to cause it. 1 coming as it does entirely from within the ranks of the G. O. P. — 1 The democratic voters of Adams ’ county are warned not to be misled by stories and statements being given • and the truth thereof. The outs want In and Gluts about all the thing they ‘ have to work on. Ask their opinions of Watson and Robinson and Walb c and Jackson and ask them how many ' democrats they are going to vote for. a _ t It was a big Dairy Day, delightful ’ and we believe successful. We know 1 that thousands enjoyed it for we stood 1 and looked into their happy faces dur- 1 ing the various meetings and read 1 their expressions of satisfaction. It 1 was a great occasion which should re- 1 bound with benefits to those who 1 were responsible and will for there 1 were hundreds of expressions of appre- 1 - elation. - — — , .] The democrats are coming and can’t j be stopped this year. There is too , many things for the republicans to , clear up and the more they try to do ( (hat the more muddles they are get- ( ing into. Adams has demanded the resignation of Walb and other leaders end they are saying many unkind things about him. The election this year will show how the people of Indiana are thinking. Col. Robbins, vice-president of the Erie Railway company paid a high compliment to the people of this community when he said and meant it, that Dairy Day was the most successful event of its kind he had ever witnessed and desired to know how it was done. Fifty big business men. perhaps more, from the cities all over the country were here and each ex-, pressed enthusiastic praise for the entertaiament, the good feeling of every one and the splendid community spirit. The merchants of Decatur did a dandy business yesterday and were smiling last night. Please understand that this was not the purpose, but it proved again that when a community

Is alive, when they extend a real hand of welcome to their patrons, when they show a desire to have the business of those within trading territory, it always results in a return commensurate with the effort. We believe this city should do things of this kind oftener, do them in such away that people like to come here and know when they do they will be well taken care of. Albert Stump, brilliant young lawyer and an orator unsurpassed, candidate for the United States senate, opposing the veteran Senator Watson. will speak at the court house in this city next Monday afternoon at 4 o’clock. Every interested voter should hear him and a special invitation is extended to the farmers and laboring men. He will bring you a new message and he will answer his opponents in no uncertain language. The hour is perhaps inconvenient to many but it is the only opportunity to hear this candidate in the county this year and we urge you all to plan to be there. Mr. Stump is one of the cleanest, safest and ablest men in Indiana politics and wherever he has spoken, has enthused his audience. We have no particular quarrel with the republican candidates for office in Adams county, ljut they are on the wrong ticket and they do not deserve support from democrats. They believe in the same things that Ed Jackson and Jim Watson and Arthur Robinson do and - are supporters of theirs. They are not making a campaign on issues but solicit you as individuals, an old scheme to break in on a majority. There is a great issue of interest to all of you at stake and those who believe in government by the people as against centralization of power should not be led away from those principals. Under a blind “Beware of campaign lies” it is the idea to poison the minds of as foany voters as possible, telling one thing in one locality and something else in another, to tell you that some one has said something about you so you will make a retort that they can tell to the other fellow. Its rather old-fash-ioned politics and we should’ think would not be effective in this campaign when every one knows the candidates and what they stand for and the very fact they are doing it ought to make you oppose them. Our attention is called to an editorial ia tae Journal of the Indiana State Medical Association of October 15, 1926, page 419, which says:— “Senator Watson may not be of the same political faith as many doctors in Indiana and yet we must say that when the medical profession desires the support of a senator in congress you can always put your finger on Jim Watson and count upon his support.” From this it seems that the editor of this medical journal is an intimate pal of Senator Jim and one would naturally suppose that the implication is that the candidates on the democratic ticket for United States senator. Albert Stump and Evans Woollen, are not or will not be as -loyal to the medical profession in Indiana as the present incumbents, yet the one referred to has for many years imposed upon the good and over-patien t people of Indiana in order to hold office in perpetuity. We feel sure that the democratic candidates, splendid men as they are, will give just as loyal support to the medical profession as did ever Senator Watson. 0 ♦ TWENTY YEARS AGO TODAY ♦ * + ♦ From the Daily Democrat File ♦ ♦ Twenty Years Ago This Day. ♦ ♦ <•♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦ October. 20. —More than 500 lives lost as results of storm off coast of Florida.

MAN AND THE TREE

L ■ I ask no greater favor than to be Friend of the sunshine, brother to a 1 tree, Neighbor to beauty, and in turn to give Some little joy to others while 1 live; To have in me that gift for happiness. Which trees and start: and violets posses*. Men find delight in brooks and running streams. Beneath a tree a weary traveler d reams. Roses make glad innumerable hearts. Unmeasured joy the morning sun imparts. And since all nature wears a gentle grace, So 1 with beauty would enrich my place.

JUST FOR OLD TIMES SAKE Very many years ago, when you anti I were young. The ways were so much different, of having our fun. We didn’t go in autos, all closet! up tight and warm. But went a foot or on horseback, right through slush and storm. And then, big wagons were the go, filled up with girls and boys. With boards for seats and without the spring, made a lot of noise And horses—just the fastest kind that ever we could get Went spinning down the road, I can almost see them yet. But then a little later on things changed again you sec. For the boy that owned a horse and buggy was counted right up in “G.” In them old days the girls “worked out” and really worked hard To get a new dress called calico which cost five cents a yard. It took ten yards to make a dress with tucks and ruffles in it; But now. no sleeves or necks and not much skirt, Two yards is almost the limit. But those old times are past and gone, And all things have beocme new So boys and girls, have your good time, God's blessing resting on you. Be good and true to fellow man and also true to God, And some bright day we'll anchor o'er Where Angels feet have trod And reap a rich reward.

W. Carrick, head of the poultry department and S. F. Hauge, research e chemist in the Agricultural experiment

Some stand enraptured, gazing on a tree, Bo let men find some little charm in me. Pansies are loved and welcomed in the spring. The world grows brighter when the linnets sing, Brother to these, I, too, would pay with mirth And happy memories for my stay on earth. Must the unthinking tree be kinder than I to the weary, dusty fellow man? Must men rejoice to see an elm at morn And find no joy because I, too, was born? Surely I have it in my power to be As friendly and as gracious as a tree.

station at Purdue University. Many poultrymen teea cod liver oil to prevent ricketts when chickens are reared in confinement and have little sunlight to provide vitamin D. When chickens are reared with feed containing two percent cod liver oil the fishy favor is readily detachable and when reared on feed confining four percent of the oil the flesh tastes extremely fishy and disagreeable, the experiments showed. The investigation also showed, however that if the cod liver nil was eliminated from the diet two weeks before the tew! was killed the flavor disappeared. c LAUDER ADVERTISES Ixmdon (United Press). —Sir Harry Lauder has advertised again, by using a system supposed to be proof against advertising. England has a thriving industry called Monomarks, and the great Scotch linger has become a Monomarker. The idea is that one buys a secrett cabalistic sign which can be printed onto laundry, letters, pipes, walking sticks and any other kind of property. If lost and found by someone else, the finder returns the article to the Monomark headquarters for the owner. George Bernard Shaw and others have found the system useful for hiding their identies when they must sign some public document, such as a “want ad.” But Sir Harry Lauder's Monomark lias become known and seems destined to become famous. He evolved hits own, which is BM—GO2L. But he insists, quite surprised that anybody should misread it, that it only means “Go To Lauder.” o ALL OVER INDIANA Indiana Harbor—Gueen Marie of i Roumania who has just arrived in this country has been invited to visit Indiana Harbor. The invitation was extended by the city through John Pora • of Indiana Harbor who was a member of the reception committee that greet- . ed the Gueen on her arrival. Greensburg—The leather lungs of William McCoy have brought him a championship. He was voted the Hog Calling Championship of southeastern Indiana at a contest held at the De- , catur county fair here. Fort Wayne—When burglars entered her home here. Miss Sarah Helm lost her temper and. wresting a revolver from the hands of the nearest bandit chased them from the house. They obtained only a watch during [ their brief visit. Gayuga—With the fear of an epidemic of infantile paralysis Fast, public schools here have again been thrown • open.

MAKE MIIS IN HOG FEEDING C. W. R. Schwartz Feeds Ton Litter; Boy Nears » Goal With Seven Pigs 1 Two more Adams county farmers , have made excellent records in the feeding of litters entered in the Ton 3 Litter Club. C. W R. Schwartz, of ' Monroe township, fed a litter of ten t cross-bred Duroc-Poland Chinas to a total weight of 2.697 pounds in 180 . days. The hogs were weighed Monday evening, several neighbors serving as witnesses. Mr. Schwartz fed the pigs a ration ! consisting of ground corn and g-ound oats mixed into a slop with just enough middlings to make the mixture 1 of the proper consistency. About twice as much corn as oats was used. The ration was balanced by the use of dried buttermilk. About four pounds of dried buttermilk was mixed into thirty gallons of water and the ground corn and oats soaked just before feeding. A very small amount of tankage also was used. This is the third successful attempt Schwartz has made in ton litter contests. In 1922, his litter of eleven Poland Chinas led the entire state with a total weight of 3.040 pounds. In 1925, his litter of eight pigs established a state record by weighing 2,331 pounds. One of the outstanding accomplishments of the ton litter work this year has been the feeding of a litter of seven pigs, entered by Ben D. Mazelln, young farmer of Monroe township. A! though he made a strong effort to reach the goal, it was found the littei lacked 12 pounds of attaining the desired weight. The litter was weighetf Tuesday evening in the presence of several neighbors, the total weight of the pigs being 2,000 pounds at 183 days, making their corrected weight 1 958*6 pounds at 180 days. Corn, skimmed milk and a balanced
