Poor relief is becoming such aI serious problem that one of these I days It will be Impossible to meet. i We are very much In favor of the! program now being considered to provide permanent employment. Labor can tie up the entire coun- : try. Os that there is no dispute, I but what will be the good? If , capital or labor refuses to cooper-1 ate, of course the rebuilding of i prosperity will be slow and uncertain. The fish mouth spreader invented by Mr. Kirsch of this city is no j doubt a wonderful thing for those who can catch the finny fellows' but an invention that would help! us to get the fish would really be I more necessary to most of us amature Waltonians. It’s queer how those who are provided with work during daysl like these can be induced by some fellow who really doesn't care about them, to walk out on a strike. With winter just ahead it behooves every man with a job to hang on I to it as long as he can. Tax rates in Adams county will compare most favorable with those in any of the ninety-two counties, I and that also with very reasonable valuations. This is because of the excellent work of the officials and the friendly advice and assistance of every good citizen. — The beet crop looks fairly good ; and the harvest will soon be on.. Plans for the mill campaign are! complete or nearly so and there 1 will be an activity in that part of I town starting early next month and continuing until Christmas I that will help every one in manyways. Col. Roy -Johnson, local auctioneer. had charge of the sale of 4-H calves at the Indiana State fair and set up a record for the week, the veal selling at an average of about 1014 cents per pound. It was also the liveliest sale of the week and the colonel received much! well deserved praise. The campaign should start now any time, In fact in a number of counties the first meetings have been held and plans are under way all over the state. It will be a short but snappy presentation of facts to the voters, every one having the opportunity to learn what they want to know of the men and their position on various problems. County Agent Archbold has some plans that sound reasonable for a stock show in this county next year and will no doubt teil us about

The house project is growing in popularity each week as every one realizes what a wonderful stint- ■ ulant to business would be the remodelling and building of millions 'of homes. It is a sound business,. ! proposition and one that should doj j much towards helping this nation get on its set. We need a little more attention to homes. Mr. Hoover, who as President i for four years failed to produce his promise of “two cars in every garage and a chicken in every pot’’ now tells the people through a . press unfriendly to the Roosevelt i administration, just what is wrong | [ and how to correct it. While con-1 j ditions are not just what we would ■ i have them, we are sure they are better than they would have been i under the old ‘‘catch as catch can” 4 r program. - ~” i Every so often it seems a terr-H ible disaster must occur.

Adams county made an excellent j record at the state fair, bringing home a score of ribbons, won over 1 stiff competition and we are very proud of those who participated. 1 This is one of the best counties in the state and horses, cattle, hogs and sheep raised here compare more than favorably with those 1 from any section of Indiana. A number are planning to show again next year and the 4-H club will be on hands as usual to keep old Adams county on the map. Gospel Tabernacle Starting this Week, services will' be held on Tuesday.

REGIONAL AAA MEETING HELD Methods Os Developing Practical Corn Crop Program Discussed Indianapolis, Sept. 10. — (U.R) Methods of developing a practical crop control program for 1035 and plans for a referendum on the corn hog plan were principal topics for discussion at a regional conference of the agricultural adjustment administration here today. Government representatives of the AAA In Indiana. Ohio, Kentucky, Illinois, Michigan anti Tennessee attended the session, the first of a series to be held throughout the nation. The second meeting will he held in Kansas City, Sept. 12-13. In a statement from Secretary of Agriculture Henry A. Wallace, read at the meeting, an appeal was made to corn-hog contract holders to vote in the referendum to be held within the next few weeks. Wallace said it was his opinion “that farmers will welcome an opportunity to vote on a program designed to prevent over-product ion of cheap grain a year from now which would result in livestock losses in 1936 and 1937." A similar appeal to farmers “to take stock and decide their course for next year” by voting In the corn.hog referendum was made tn a statement from Chester C. Davis, administrator of the AAA read at the meeting. "The questions to he decided by the farmers are: First, do they fav!or adjustment programs dealing I with corn and hogs In 1935. and second, do they believe that an adjustment program for corn planted in 1935 Is sufficient to prevent excess hog production” the statement asked. “They also may want to look ahead to 1936 and ask themselves whether they want a one-contract adjustment program dealing with grains to follow 1935 adjustment plans. “Through the farmers' own county production control associations we exp»ct to learn definitely what the corn-hog growers want to do ■in 1935. A referendum will reveal i the farmers' own decision as to 'their future course.” o COURTHOUSE New Case Jerry W. Keller, execut r of the last will and testament of George | W.

I WHAT IS*** «... r boll II v I >_ rWWWjy 1 * iI IB I * j IE A. I Parrot Tulips for Brilliancy I

Parrot tulips are old-fashioned t tulips that always attract attention a by the brilliancy of their coloring, their huge size, and the peculiar s mhnner in which their long petals I are fringed and slashed. Their ori- I gin is uncertain and there are only f a few varieties and only rarely c does this peculiar type arise among t newer tulips. They are a late tulip c and bloom last of all the late class- t es. The colors are chiefly red and 1 yellow iu varying mixture w|th i occasional splashes of green. I A new break in this class and ’ i the first parrot tulip to show a real ’ i departure in the usual coloring of 1 the class is Fantasy, which came * as a sport from the pink tulip ' Clara Butt, having the same pinkj’ j coloring as its parent, but with the j* ■ unusual fringed petals. It also has i ' a strong straight stem, which most 1 1 ■ of the parrots do not have, the! * I blooms drooping and sprawling in 1 I informal grace. This tulip has petals three inches long, with green ! markings on the outside on the 1 pink ground. It is a most remark- i able new tulip.. There are no more showy tulips than the parrots. They are best ! planted in small groups where their informal grace is best displayed. | In larger planting the irregularity I of their growth becomes too mani ] fest and detracts from the individual beauty of the flowers. The tulip species, those found in ! the wild which have not been hybridised as have the garden tulips, are now claiming deserved attention from the beauty of their colors and the graceful manner of their growth. They are not all of the easiest growth and some are best suited to rock garden conditions. The Lady or Candy Stick tulip is one of the best known of these — Tulipa Clusiana, white with a rosered stripe down the outside of each petal. It requires unusually deep planting to succeed.
