Did you thump with the Calithumpians? Hallow'een over and the next event to attract attention will be Thanksgiving, not so far off any more and just think, its less than two months until Christmas. You still have time to buy tickets for the Evening Star Festival. Its the greatest combination of events ever offered here for the money. It opens tonight with a wonderful program and we are sure if you go you will want to keep it up for the four nights. We presume the state fire marshal has the legal right to order any building torn down he wants to and it may be alright from a point of view for fire protection but we never hear of it that we don't shudder at the power thus invested in one man. Congratulations, Mr. Rice, and members of the committee of the Decatur Industrial Association on last nights big fun program. There is something about such an event which makes fun contagious and its always worth a lot to make a community smile. You did it and did it well. The crowd last evening should prove that the folks like entertainment and will turn out for it. We ‘don't do these things often enough. Its the trade mark of a good town to have plenty going on. It was a big 'success with a lot of fun and a splendid feeling existing throughout. Thats worth ten times what it costs any old 3ime. Lets do it oftener. . Our old friend, Billy Bosse, dropped .in to see us today and urged us to .keep on calling attention of our J readers to the fact that an Old Hpute J Week can be made a whale of a suc- • cess in Decatur next year and to tell <us he is strong for it, hopes it goes i and promised all the aid he can give. , Thats what we want to hear. What ,do you say about it folks? Don't you , believe it would be a line thing to do? I • Be assured you can do nothing . finer or better than to help in the J drive for canned fruits and vegetables for the Adams County Memorial hos- ; pital, now on. Each year since the • hospital opened such a campaign has • been successfully conducted and we are sure the splendid people of this I . county will cqntinue the practice. The hospital is not conducted for , profit and does not maintain itself. It is an institution conducted for the convenience of the public and any , assistance is greatfully appreciated. Cal Lyons, soldier of fortune, newspaper man, first to interview Von Hindenburg after the war, a man with a rapid fire delivery and a storehouse of things worth knowing, will be the principal speaker at the first autumn meeting ot the Decatur Industrial Association next week, Wednesday. Every business man should hear Cal for he will bring you a message that you will long remember and which is designed to give us the proper pep and spirit for fighting for our community. Judge Milper, of Indianapolis, has decided that for ten days any way Claude E. Negley, former president of th>a council and who was duly chosen by the council to act as mayor until such time as is required to name a

I successor to Mayor Duvall, is the real J mayor of that city now. He declared Holmes and all others trying to get the office usurpers with no. standing in court and otherwise indicated that r. he favors Mr. Negley at least under existing conditions. It will at least be pleasant to have the mutter settled r " In some way. «ll tHll We think every one will admit that o “ there have been better years than p the one now growing to a close but 5 w;e Insist also there have been worse 5 and that they have been successfully o lived through. We are aiot now so ® much interested in 1927 as we are in 1928 which approaches. How can we make that the best year Decatur ever had? Have you any suggestions? We will be glad to print them and yours may bring forth others. Lets talk about a program for next year and then lets start early to carry It out. >- Andrew Mellon, secretary of the treasury is a foxy old financier and t after figuring It up one side of the i- sheet and down the other has decided J 1 that not to exceed $223,000,000 should s be cut from the taxes and recommends that no change be made in the general tax now in effect. In other words he 3 has again dished it up so that those [ -’ that have can have more by paying' r out less while those that have not 1 • will not be permitted to get any ( 1 where. Os course his program will meet opposition, plenty of it and it is quite possible that before they are through the reduction will be con--1 siderably more. Those in touch with the situation say that a $400,000,000 1 reduction can easily be made. That would be real relief. *¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥* * TWENTY YEARS AGO * * ¥ ¥ From the Daily Democrat File ¥ ¥ Twenty Years Ago Today ¥ *¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥ November 1.

I MANAGE LARGE FARM IN KANSAS i Brothers Os Decatur Man I Manage JM)O-Acre Farm And Make It Pay An interesting story, wiiich tells how A. C. and Leonard Saylors, brothers lof Clifford Saylors of Decatur and | Leo Saylors, of Bluffton, manage a I 900-acre farm near Emporia, Kansas, i and make it pay well, appeared in a I recent issue of the Emporia Weekly Gazette. Clifford and Leo Saylors came here a few years ago and entered the 1 automobile business, they being agents for the Dodge cars in Adams and Wells county. The story is as follows. A. C. and Leonard Saylors are carrying on the work which their father, T. M. Saylors, began 39 years ago when he bought his first quarter section of land 12 miles northeast of Emporia. The farm now contains 900 acres and while Mr. Saylors has retired to town, the two bo.'s operate the farm. Mr. Saylors and his sons are in partenership on cattle. Several years ago purebred cattle were Yaised by Mr. Saylors and up until recently Duroc hogs were fed. However, the hog lots have become infested with worms and the Saylors do not wish to plow the lots because they are in Alfalfa and the ground washes and blows badly when cutivated. Two ' cars of hogs a year formerly were raised. Last spring five brood sows were killed by lightning. Since some stock must be used to eat up the feed raised on the farm, the cattle feeding business gradually was adopted. Thin summer the Saylors are short on cattle, having 135 head on pasture, of which two carloads are being fed. Summer feeding is practiced by Archie and Leonard Saylors. They from their father that a bushel of corn in the summer will go three times as far as a bushel in winter. Hogs always were fed early in the fall or else carried over until spring. Jn carrying over the winter cane I and cotton cake are used for the early part of the winter, making a fine feed for cattle just off grass, according tc Archie Saylors. After Christmas they are changed over to shocked corn anc alfalfa for the severest part of the win ter. The feeding lots are well protect ed by trees and hedges. This year tht lighter cattle will be held and carriet over the winter to be fed next summe
