As ED FROM PAGE ONE) will be the last appeal in the east, two weeks before election, and at a point where many republican leaders now believe their troubles are most acute. The Nov. 3 speech in a midwestern | city would be designed to mend any \ farm fences which may have been broken down by the Democrats since I Hoover’s lowa farm speech. The Palo Alto address of course would be the final appeal to the voters, the night before they go the polls to decide the issue. Hoover believes | now no other speeches will be neces- ■ eary or advisable. The Elizabethton speech has been | concluded in final printed form and I friends of the nominee are urging him to take his long delayed fishing trip for a few days of rest before he enters the final heat of the campaign. Hoover has not indicated yet whether he will go. He dislikes to leave his desk and he does not believe he needs a rest. o Miss Bessie Robinson, of Newcastle, Pennsylvania, director for the John & Rogers Producing company, of Fostoria, Ohio, was a Monday guest of Mrs. J. R. Biair in this city.

DECATUR DAILY DEMOCRAT MONDAY, OCTOBER I, 1928.

WHEAT SEEDING LOW THIS YEAR A recent statement regarding the > shortage of the fall wheat seeding > acreage made by I. H. Hull, general » manager of the purchasing depart > ment of the Indiana Farm Bureau to • the press has been challenged. His statements in an interview read as follows: ' "He estimates there will be 40% less seeding than a year ago. He bases his estimate on the fact that representatives in his department ’ from the different sections of the state report that because the 1928 crop was practically a failure farm- ' ers are not in financial position to secure the normal amount of seed wheat and fertilizer to sow the usual acreage. “Again it is a difficult matter to seed corn fields because of the unusual weedy condition of them. The heavy rains in June prevented proper cultivatibn to destroy w-eeds and in many sections of the state it is impossible to invade the corn rows with a drill.” An exception was taken to Mr. Hull's estimate of the fall wheat acreage and also of his reasons for a less seeding than a year ago. Because of this fact Mr. Hull addressed letters to the county agents September 24 and a few days later received forty-eight replies. The letter to the county agents read. "Please give your opinion of the wheat acreage being short this fall on a percentage basis as compared with normal acreage.” The average of the reported percentage figures in the replies was 70. As the 1927 seeding was practically 115 per cent normal, the 1928 seeding is, therefore, about 60 per cent of that a year ago. Grant county reported the lowest percentage, 39, and only four counties, Decatur, Rush. Jasper and Union reported normal seeding. The Marion county report, 60 to 70 per cent was representative of the central part of the state; Fulton county, 50 per cent, of the north central part; Washington county, 60 to 75 per cent, of the south west part; Jay county, 55 per cent, of the east central part; Clay county, 70 per cent, of the west central part, and again Hamilton county, 33 to 50 per cent, of the central part. Many of the county agents volun teered the information that the chief i causes of the seeding shortage this i season consists of a minimum seed * supply, lack of money among the i farmers to buy seed and fertilizer, and | a weedy condition of the corn fields in many sections of the state prohibiting drilling in the corn rows. One county agent reported that a fertilizer salesman said he was selling only about one-third the volume for wheat field purposes as last year. o Indians Shower Gifts On Sen. Charles Curtis l Topeka, Kans.. Oct. I—(U.R1 —(U.R) —Senator Charles Curtis, Republican nomi- > nees for vice-president, will leave ; behind at his home here enough . Indian relics to start a museum when ■ he departs tonight for Chicago ’ to resume his campaign. i During his recent western tour, i Curtis visited as many Indian settle- ! ments as possible and almost always I was presented with some memento. i Himself part Kaw Indian, the nominee is keenly interested in the history and craftsmanship of the native . Americans. t Among the most elaborate of his ! gifts are a buffalo hide war drum, a feather headdress, a peace pipe and ! a bead pouch. Curtis’ sore throat and injured thumb were reported improved today. Hie physician has ordered a complete rest for several days, however, and the senator will probably not attempt another campaign speech until Wednesday, when he is scheduled to address a ‘political meeting in Chicago. He is spending his two days in Topeka quietly at the home of his sister, Mrs. Elizabeth Colvin. o Preaching and Practice if to do were as easy as to know 1 what were good to do, chapela had 1 been churches, and poor men’s cot--1 tr.ges princes’ palaces. It is a good - divine that follows his own instructions: I can easier teach twenty what tme good to be done than be one of the twenty to follow mine own teaching.—Shakespeare.
