FORDSON TRACTORS Hie facts in connection with the distribution of one thousand Fordson Tractors in Indiana by Henry Ford & Son, of Dearborn, Michigan, are— The Governor, James P. Goodrich; and the State Council of' Defense, having advised Mr. Ford that the use of tractors m this state is especially necessary this year to secure the maximum quantity of food as a war measure, ana the concurrence in this opinion by the State Food Administrator and the Committee of Food Production and Conservation, led Mr. Ford to immediately order • that one thousand tractors be allotted to Indiana, to be delivered into the State at the rate of one carload of seven each per day. In order to facilitate the arrangements, the corporation known as the Indiana Tractor Company was organized to handle the details from their headquarters, 1327 E. Washington Streep Indianapolis, under the supervision of Professor T. A. Coleman of Purdue University. the State Leader of County Agricultural Agents and to distab- • uta the tractors through the instrumentality of county and local Ford dealers and other distributors,direct to the farmers,the whole transaction involving no profit whatsoever to any of the persons contnbut ing their services, nor upon the part of the manufacturer. CENTRAL GARAGE Of Rensselaer, Ind. has arrangeed to distribute seven of the Fordson Tractors to the farmers in this locality and is hopeful that they will be received in the near future. This is a patriotic effort of practical value and will do much towards the winning of the war and the future prosperity of the farmers of Indiana.

Shorthorn Rally May 25th.

Word has been received by . the officers of the county shorthorn association that Professor H. E. Allen, of Purdue, will be the principal speaker at the shorthorn rally at Rensselaer Saturday afternoon, May 25th. Professor Allen has had a wide experience and will bring a message of importance to the breeders. Mr. W. B. Krueck will give demonstrations of the methods of preparing cattle for sale or show, using some of the club heifers as examples. The association extends an invitation to all cattle men of the county to attend.

Reserve Supply of Seed Established.

In order to provide for a late demand for seed for replanting, the department of agriculture has purchased and stored supplies of seed corn at various points. The varieties included are medium yellow dent, Early yellow dent, and early: white dent. It is shelled and sacked into two bushel bags. The chief point of storage is Toledo, Ohio, but lots will be sent to Lafayette to save express. This corn will be sold at $5.75 per bushel in even bag lots. Under the law this corn must be sold for cash, but in order to speed delivery, arrangements have been made to accept cashiers checks on local banks for the total amount of corn to be bent to any one locality. Should a necessity for replanting arise, Jasper couqty farmers will do well to get in before a general stampede.

Road to Happiness. Be amiable, cheerful and good natured and you are much more likely to be happy. You will find this difficult, if not impossible, however, when you are constantly troubled with constipation. Take Chamberlain’s Tablets and get rid of that and it will be easy. These tablets not only move the bowels, but improve the appetite and strengthen the digestion. C. Mrs. James Chapman and Mrs. Geo. Williams went to Chicago on the early train.

REPUBLICANS OF INDIANA CHOOSE WASMUTH CHIEF

Indianapolis, May 15.—Edward M. Waemuth, of Huntington, today was elected chairman of the republican state committee to succeed Will H. Hays, now chairman of the national republican committee, after L. W. Henley, was re-elected secretary, declined the place and asked that some one else be chosen. Mr. Wasmuth was unopposed. John G.

Chairman Wasmuth appointed Bert Morgan, of the Fourth district; Harry Long, of the Eighth, and Harry G. Hogan, of the Twelfth, as a special committee to act with him and Secretary Henley in making arrangements for the state convention which will be held May 28-29. Mr. Wasmuth announced after his election that he would endeavor to continue the organization along the lines laid down by Mr. Hays during the past four years. In declining to accept the state chairmanship Secretary Henley said that he expects to devote as much time as possible to aiding National Chairman Hays in securing a success in his new position.

Proper Food for Weak Stomach*. The proper food for one man may be all wrong for another. Every one should adopt a diet suited to his age and occupation. Those who have weak stomachs need to be especially careful and should eat slowly and masticate their food thoroughly. It is also important that they keep their bowels regular. When they become constipated or when they feel dull and stupid after eating, they should take Chamberlain’s Tablets to strengthen the stomach and move the bowels. They are easy to take and pleasant in effect. C. REMOVAL NOTICE. I have removed my millinery store from" the . Collins’ shoe store to the store formerly occupied by Mrs. Purcupile on Van Rensselaer street. MISS EMMA RISHLING. Get Rid of Your Kheuuatum. Now is the time to get rid of your rheumatism.
