FORDSON TRACTORS The facts in connection with the distribution of one thousand Fordson Tractions in Indiana by Henry Ford & Son, of Dearborn, Michigan, are— The Governor, Janies P. Goodrich, and the State Council, of Defense, having advised Mr. Ford that the use of tractors in this state is especially necessary this year to secure the maximum quantity of food as a war measure, and the concurrence of this opinion by the State Food Administrator and the Committee of Food 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 Street, Indianapolis, under the supervision of Professor T. A. Coleman, of Purdue University, the State Leader of County Agricultural Agents and to distribute 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 j contributing their services, nor upon the part of the manufacturer. CENTRAL GARAGE of Rensselaer, Indiana has arranged 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. ,

GOAT DEVOURS FLAGS; LOCKED UP AS SPY

Animal Gives Battle When Women Try to Drive it Away. - Loa Angeles, Cal — ▲ spy suspect, loitering around the home of Mrs. W. C. Burke of Halldale avenue, is stiß imprisoned in Mrs. Burke’s garage. The subject is a stray goat that appeared at the Burke residence and, after attempting to demolish the garden, attacked and ate two American flags. Mrs. Burke became aware of the goat first when she heard a loud commotion on the front porch. It proved to be the goat lunching on a young peach tree at the edge of the porch. Mrs. Burke endeavored to coax it away. As a protest it tore around the garden till it spied the two American flags on the garage. Without hesitation it began to eat the flags. The daughter made a dash to rescue the Stars and Stripes and it was then that the goat became a spy suspect For at her appearance it charged in and finally butted her so far away from the garage that it managed to swallow the last bit qf flag before she could counter-charge. Finally, however, with the aid of neighbors, the goat was driven into the garage and firmly tied. But Mrs. Burke and her daughter hope the allies of the goat will come and gee it

At 5 o’clock when the cow did not come to the barn with the other animals Mr. Snowden and his hired man went to the swamp and found her. The cow was dug out and it w found that the left hind leg was so badly sprained that she could not step on it. The cow was loaded ona stoneboat and drawn to the barnyasd. A veterinary was called, examined the leg, and as he found no broken bones it was decided not to kill the animal. The leg was bandaged and the cow has not stood on her feet since. The next morning when Snowden fed the animal he observed a perched upon her back, but when he approached the bird flew away. That evening, when he went to care, for the cow he was surprised to fln< that the bird had built a nest on the cow's back and had laid an egg in the nest Since then the bird has laid four eggs in the nest and is now sitting on the eggs.

Farmers —We have your threshing coal now. Get it before the supply is exhausted. The Farmers Grain Company. Mr. and Mrs. T. W. Wartena and family, of Leroy, 111., are visiting Mr. and Mrs. Fred McColly and other relatives. E. Titus, night operator a£ the Monon station, went to Oshkosh, Wis., Friday afternoon to visit his sister. r ■ Rosa Luers is taking a two week’s vacation and left this morning for Chicago, where she will spend a few days with her sister, Lucille, and will then go to Bakersfield, Ohio for a visit with Mr. and Mrs. Gaylord McFarland. The Hebron Herald has discontinued publication, its death being due to the conditions arising from the war which makes the publication of newspapers so difficult. Travel has decreased greatly on the Monon since the raise in fares, and this is also probably true on all other roads. It is doubhtful if the increased fares will raise as large a revenue as the lower fares formerly prevailing. Attorney Abraham Halleck has enrolled for farm work and wants it distinctly understood that by the side of the work he can do with the hay fork that which Mayor Spitler will be able to do will look like the job of a mere boy.

When you have sour stomach take one of Chamberlain’s Tablets to aid digestion. C T. J. Jackson and sister, Mrs. Milda, of Vedersburg, are guests of the family of Mrs. John Jessen, their sister.
