Friday, April 7, 1911. , Examining boards are getting to be such common things that even the people who don’t think them worth the money don’t pay mucfi attention to the w-ay they come and go. Since The Republican told about the two examiners who Were sent here to look over the recorder's books, there have been two more sets here. Before the examiners had well started on the recorder’s books along came another set of examiners to go over the trustee’s books. This was done only a year ago and again this year. Then along came another set of examiners to go over the books of the auditor .and treasurer. They have been at work about three weeks. Last week one of the examiners, W. A. Handy by name, took sick and John Collett, the other one, has been going it single handed until today, when he went to Indianapolis on call from Chief Dehority. He expects to be hooked up with another examiner and returned here to complete the job. Probably about the time these examiners are gone another set will drop in to go over the books of Rensselaer. Remington arid Wheatfleld corporations and the school boards of each. ’The pay has been reduced from $lO to $8 per day, but we have not heard of any of the accountants quitting their jobs The Republican believes that any of the accountants would work for $6 just as quick.

General Assembly Established Standard of Weights and Measures.

Although the new uniform weights and measures law, enacted by the recent general assembly, does not become effective until January l, 1912, H. E. Barnard, state food and drug commissioner and ex-ofllcio state sealer of weights and measures, will spend much of the intervening time preparing to launch a full force of Inspectors when the law becomes operative. One of the most- important parts of the work of preparation will be to induce the boards of county commissioners and city councils to agree to appoint county and city sealers and another important pare will be to see that ail county auditors are provided with standards of weights and ‘measures, as required bylaw'. In providing for the appointment of inspectors, >lr. Barnard expects to be helped by organizations of w-omen throughout the state. In preparation for this, a campaign of education for the housewives will be started to show the need of inspection of weighs and measures to insure the housewife that when she pays for a pound of foodstuff she will get a pound. Mr. Barnard expeets to raise a distinct issue between the dealer who opposes an ix epector and the housewife whenever a board of commissioners or a city council shows an inclination not to appoint inspectors. The law requiring that each county auditor have a set of standard weights and measures was approved in 1853. and has never been changed. It is estimated now that fewer than a dozen counties have such sets. This w ill be one cf the phases of the situation first considered by the state sealer. Where the county commissioners appoint a county sealer, thb board shall provide such a sealer with an additional set, and the same shall be done in the cities where sealers are appointed. The act of 1851 defines such set of standards as containing one twelve-inch measure, on thirtysix inch measure, one one-half bushel, one one-gallon measure and one set of avoirdupois weights. The standards of weights for produce, as adopted in 1885 by the general assembly and amended in 1897, has not been changed by the new law. The law provides as follows: Standard weight of a bushel.— Wheat, 60 pounds; buckwheat, 50 pounds; oats, 32 pounds; beans, 60 pounds; potatoes, 60 pounds; clover seed, 60 pounds; hemp seed, 44 pounds; blue grass seed, 14 pounds; castor beans, 46 pounds; dried peaches, S 3 pounds; dried apples, 25 pounds; onions, 48 pounds; salt, 50 pounds; coal, 80 pounds; timothy seed, 45 pounds; ry-e, 56 pounds; barley, 48 pounds; corn meal, 50 pounds; cranberries, 33 pounds; millet seed, 50 pounds; orchard grass, 14 pounds, malt rye, 35 pounds; middlings, fine, 40 pounds; middlings, coarse, 30 pounds; osage orange, 33 pounds; parsnips, 55 pounds; sweet potatoes, 55 pounds; turnips, 55 pounds; popcorn, 70 pounds; shelled corn, 56 pounds; corri in the ear from time of harvest to December 1, 70 pounds; thereafter, 68 pounds. Other standards.—Barrel of beef or pork, 200 pounds; barrel of flour, 190 pounds; sorghum molasses, 11 pounds to the gallon; ton of hay or straw, 2,000 pounds. These standards will be used in the enforcement of the new law.

How to Fertilize Corn.

Indiana Farmer. In reply to query of W. H. M., of Boone county, as to applying commercial fertilizer in corn, w,ould say: One application at the time of planting is sufficient. Broadcast, say 200 pounds to the acre between the rows with the ordinary wheat drill, working the fertilizer in to a depth of about 2% inches. If $ corn planter with fertilizer attachment is available, apply an additional 50 pounds to the acre with the seed. This method of distributing the plant is better than putting it all in the hill or row close to the seed. It prevents “firing” in dry seasons and promotes lateral growth 'irf th* _ -' • ■ Lincoln township, containing the towns of Roselawn and Thayer, in Newton county, will vote on April 29th. The petition was circulated by Felix Parker and others and contained 41 names. If it is held that any township, without regard to the population, is entitled to a saloon where successful means have not been employed to defeat it, there would be a lively scrap between Thayer and Roselawn as. to which place would get the -saloon find it is probable that this scrap will favor the “dry” vote in the election. Jackson township and Mt. Ayr filed a remonstrance containing 122 names, which the commissioners held sufficient.

Rutherford, College Ave., Rensselaer, Ind., says: “I have no reason to alter my high opinion of Doan’s Kidney Pills which I publicly expressed in the fall of 1907. I hare even greater confidence in this remedy than I did then, for I found ft to just as represented. I was badly in need of something that would relieve my suffering. My back ached most -of the time and I felt languid and devoid of ambition. I had dizzy shells and headaches and there were many other symptoms of kidney trouble present When I read that Doan’s Kidney Pills were a good remedy for such complaints, I pro . cured a box at Fendigto Drug Store and they brought prompt relief. I am seldom without a supply of Doan’s Kidney Pills in the house and I find that a few doses now and then, keep my kidneys in good working order. Other members of my family have taken Doan’s Kidney Pills and in each case the results have been of the best” For sale by all dealers. Price 50 cents. Foster-Mllburn Co., Buffalo.
