ELECTRIC SUCTION SWEEPER IT BEATS.... AS IT SWEEPS AS IT CLEANS Do You Know the Secret, of the Hoover’s Success? It will beat your rugs and get the dirt. Unless you buy a sweeper with a powerdriven brush you are just fooling yourself. You are going to spend too much money not to buy the best. There are any number of different vacuum sweepers owned in town that are not being used. They are not powerful enough. They do not get the dirt. Ask us to demonstrate in your own home. W. J.

FOR MEN MUST WORK

and women weep, and the sooner you do your share the sooner you retire and look hack with pride and look ahead unafraid. Mr. Henry Amsler has done his share. He’s been a hard worker and a good nephey to Uncle Sam. Starting at the bottom, he has been so busy for the last 81 years getting his family and his home and his fortune built up to the American standard that be just forgot it was quitting time. ■ Said if we could teach him to drive a Franklin car he would knock off and call it a life’s work. We took him up. One feel of his muscle shows us that if a man is done at 81 he’s not worn out—he’s rusted out. We’ve always been healthy (germs can’t live on our income) but Mr. Amsler says the secret of keeping fit lies in the fact that germs can’t live in salt water. Keep sweating. That’s the best way to get a fortune and a Fran Min. - THOMPSON & KIRK.

COUNTY PRESIDENTS TO ATTEND FARMERS’ CONFERENCE

Indianapolis, Ind., May 10.—Word has been received at the headquarterscf the Indiana Federation of Farmers’ Association in this city that practically every county organization in the state which is affiliated with the parent body will send its president and secretary to the state-wide conference called by President John G. Brown for Monday, May 17, Lewis Taylor, general secretary has outlined a program for the meeting which calls for a discussion on the co-operative elevators, live stock shipping associations pooling of the wool clip, uniform membership campaigns and accounting systems, road building programs etc. The first subject to be dis- • cussed, however, will be relative to the charges made against the management of the Federation by the editor of the “Farmer’s Guide.” Reports of a number of successful membership drives in various counties of the state have been received by officers of the farmers* organization and several new ones have been planned for the immediate future? In Warrick county an eleven' day campaign is to open May 17 in charge of C. S. Masterson who will follow this with one opening May 31 in Miami county. Chas. A. Sims- has just completed a successful drive in Spencer county and H._C/_Reid is arranging _ for the opening of a campaign in Union county. ' Special emphasis is being made by speakers sent into the various counties that, unless the organization has a majority of the farmers of the county as members, the unit lacks the necessary influence in any co-operative action dealing with the general welfare of the agriculturists to serve as spokesman. When the majority is reached, it is pointed out, the farmers have overcome this criticism. The latest county to apply for membership into the state federation is Crawford coufity in the southern part of Indiana. The farmers in that section have been quietly at work for some time and are expected to strengthen their district considerably. The new county becomes a member of the Ninth District of the Federation of which J. J. Brown, of Rockport, is director. The addition to Crawford county brings the total number of counties affiliated with the parent body up to eighty-four. Notices have just been sent out by E. E. and townships in the state to send Reynolds, treasurer, for all county in the official list of their officers in order that these may be revised and made up to date at headquarters.
