Better • leave such stuff alone, because you'll feel better and enjoy life longer. That young fellow who murdered nine persons just for the ‘‘thrill" of seeing them die. will probably have hfs biggest thrill when his life is taken in payment for his crimes. It is claimed that the cost of lobby service for the farmer, is only two cents a year for each farmer, and even at that minimum some wonder what benefits the lobbyists obtained for them. Those individuals who have earned it and all partnerships and corporations must file their income tax returns not later than March 15, so before you get too interested in the basket ball tourneys, better look after this important job. These senators and congressmen can cut down expenses by attending the White Hoftse breakfasts and if Mr. Hoover can get things done for the price of ham and eggs It >.i!l be good engineering on his papt. A millionaire in New York died and left $10,000,000 to be spent in distributing happiness and so far the administrators have not found away to spend it. Thousands of suggestions have been made. Distributed among ten people, would at least make that many happy for a tvhile. Edgar Guest, poet philosopher and newspaper writer, claims that too much time is wasted by the average person and that is one reason why the remark is made that he is ‘‘too busy,” or "rushed to death.” Guest believes that if we apply our time, more time can be- given to play and at the same time accomplish more work. In a two-page feature in tonight’s Daily Democrat, Decatur business and profeesional men join in extending greetings and best wishes to" the Yellow Jackets, who will meet the Central high school boys, Friday, at Fort Wayne. Remember boys, Decatur is pulling for you, want you to play a good game and as there is more glory in winning, we all hope you’ll win. Two Adams county farmers, living east of Berne have harvested a new crop this year and the average person wonders what kind of a crop mature* in February. It is

The men had two r acres of it planted and will harvest about three tons of the seas- . | onlng root. That's a new crop and I i > ! one way to Increase production, — M It's an old story about being n . careful with the mails and not to >. > travel over them with excessive • loads at this time of the year, but 1 at no time are grav>l or stone i roads in worse shape than now. The extreme warm weather and thaws, have not only ruined i county, but state roads and the cooperation of all will be appre- : ’ ciated by those who strive to keep the highways passable. The seed corn is reported being below average test this year and farmers who depend so much on I this crop are cautioned to plant i only the best. If in doubt about the grade of the corn, they are asked to get in touch with the county agent or have it tested before planting. Adams county de- • pends much on a good corn crop and it's something which interests every person, whether farmer or merchant. Next week the annual job of assessing personal property begins. Assessors and their deputies will call on every resident in the county for the purpose of filing i out tax schedule blanks and the I cooperation of the individual will be appreciated by the men who < must compile the work. The values will not be any higher than a year ago, it is stated and the counties in this district will endeavor to strike an average on live stock, cattle and grain, which will be | assessed at present market prices. ■ A native of Turkey, said to be ! 156 years old is coming to this country at the invitation of the , American Anti-Alcohol society. His | slogan is, "one hundred and fifty- j six years old. and never took a ' drink. ' Well, a lot of fellows might ( add that he does not know what he missed, while others can point to the longevity champion as evi-. dence of the teetotaler's reward. The old Turk has buried 11 wives I and is leaving his twelfth at home 1 and our advice to him is not to start drinking the present brand ) of bootleg liquor now. o Household Scrapbook H I By | ROBERTA LEE * v White Enamel Furniture Stains on white enamel furniture | can be cleaned by adding a small piece of potash to a kettle of clear water, letting it stand for a few minutes, and then washing the furniture with this solution and soap Potato Chips Steam the potatoes for fifteen minutes before frying potato chips.
