LOCAL ORDER RECIPIENT OF PRIZED BASEBALL

♦ J. E. Murphy, Grand Knight of the local order of Knights of Columbus. has on display in the window of his College Inn Restaurant, an autographed base ball, the gift of “Babe” Ruth, world’s greatest batter and drawing card, to the Knights of Columbus of this city. During a recent exhibitin game in Indianapolis in which Ruth’s club met Indianapolis, one of the state officers of the Knights of Columbus went to Ruth and explained to him that there was a state .wide movement on the part of the Knights of Columbus toward the building of a Father Gibault home for delinquent and dependent boys, and asking that he autograph several baseballs which would be turned over to the councils first subscribing their allotments, and the local council was among the first. Every council in the state has now subscribed its allotment and the home is assured. “Babe” Ruth epent many years in such a home for boys in Baltimore, Md., and was greatly pleased upon learning of the movement of the Knights of Columbus in this state, and in a letter to Knight Murphy commended the work of the focal council.

THE VOICE OF THE PEOPLE

> • . r— X" f'W Here I* One of the Mother* That Ara Opposed to The League of • Nations Taken From The Indianapolis New*. (Newman, 81., Weekly News.) To the Editor of the New*: Sir:—l read an article in your paper dated September. 30, headed ‘‘Mother Where Are You?” written by Warren Daniel. I would like to aak him a question in reply: “Where were the mothers in- November, 1916?” I can tel! him where some of the mothers were. They were at the polls voting for Wood row Wilson under the plea “he will keep us out of war?” and later saw their boys go to war. Now Mr. Daniel says for mothers to read the league of nations covenant and vote for the league of nations and not be deceived. He also says if we join the league of ' nations and don’t like it we can withdraw. Now I j would like for him to tell me how we can withdraw. He knows we will have to have the consent of all the other nations in order to withdraw and that looks very much to me like taking a leap in the dark. I believe in safety first. I want to teH Mr. Daniel that I am the mother of a soldier boy and I have fead the league of nations covenant and have read the speeches in the papers both for and against the league and I am not going-to be deceived. If‘l am able to get to the polls in November I will vote for free America and for the men that will keep America free from all entanglements with foreign nationg. Had Woodrow Wilson been a main of vision many a mother’s son might have come home safe that now lies sleeping in a soldier’s grave in France. If Wilson had needed the advice of some of our best statesmen and prepared for war, our boys would have been weM trained before they were sent across the water to fight the enemy. I plead with mothers to stop and think and not be betrayed, into the hands of foreign nations. It is true we have just gone through an awful war which we could not avoid, and no league of nations will prevent war. The Good Book tells us there shall be wars and rumors of war. We are now going through a period of time that is spoken of in the Bible. The Bible tells us that the time would come when there would be a cry for peace and there would be no peace. Is it not, true .that a great portion of this nation are wanting peace with Germany and Woodrow Wilson will not let us have peace until Almerica signs that awful scrap of paper he brought back from Versailles? Mr. Daniel also says for mothers not to be deceived by the misrepresentations of* those who are apposed to the league of nations. Now that reminds me of the quotation of Scripture where Christ was bn a mountain and was shown the glories of the world and was told “aM these things win I give you if thou will fall down and worship me.” Now I appeal to the mothers to vote for free America and not be betrayed and crucified by foreign nations.

agricultural news.

Mr. Proulx has gotten up ; a very interesting statement regarding the cotton seed meal prices in Indiana. The following is his statement verbatim: “The two principal protein concentrates which Indiana farmers purchase in order to re-enforce their farm grown feeds are tankage and cottonseed meal, both of which are purchased strictly on the protean barns. The price of tankage containing 60 per cent' protein still remains firm, at 1100.00 to SIIO.OO per ton and is the only feed that has not experienced a drop m price, due probably to less available stocks on hand. Quotations on the new crop of cottonseed meal are now available. High grade cottonseed meal which contains 43 per cent protein and which wa* sold in last November in carload lots for $88.65 per ton, is now yoted at >54.60 per ton ,a drop of >29.05, while low grade cottonseed meal containing 36 per is now quoted for >49.60 per ton. It i* impossible to prophesy the price which Will prevafl throughout the 1920 crop, but since farmers purchase this mead on the protein bads, they wiH find that protein in high grade meal costs less than protein in low grade mead. Purchasers will do wen to secure price lists from brokers or dealers on both

Actual quotations Oct. 7 on~ cayload lota, delivered to Indiana points were: J 43 per cent protein cottonseed t per-centq protein cottonseed meal, 849.60 per ton. 1 It is an easy matter to figure one at the following methods: Uring first the unit basis method at calculation, the 43 per cent cottonseed 1 to >L3B ner unit . efprotein, obtained also * 7 tfce I $49r60, per ton oy 00. . dDcj’ • i per coirt umnu oowh

of 11 cento per unit is taade by purchasing the high grade ■ cottonseed meal. This 11 cento saving on each unit multiplied by the number of units of protein in a 30 ton car which is 1290, obtained by multiplying 43 by 30, shows an actual saving of $141.90 in favor of the high grade 43 per cent cottonseed meal on each car load. Many farmers find it easier to work this problem-on the pound basis. 'Hie 43 per cent protein cottonseed meal et 554.60 per tan would become $2.78 per 100 pounds and since each 100 pounds contains 43 pounds of protein, one pound of protein would be $0.0685, obtained by dividing $2.73 by 43. The 86 per cent meal quoted at $49.60 per tan likewise gives the price of $2.48 by 36, the number of pounds of protein in 100 pounds of we obtain $0,069 as the cart of one pound of protein in the 36 per cent meal. Since a pound of protein in the 43 per cent meal costa meal costs $0,069, the difference in cost, namely $0.0055, is the saving on one pound of protein protein in a 30-ton car of 48 per cent cottonseed mori, this amount multiplied by $0.0055 w»| show that $141.90 is saved by purchasing erade meal.

It is just as logical for Indiana corn mills to grind the com and cob together and sett it for ground corn throughout the cotton belt as it is for toe cotton oil mills to add cottonseed hulls to the meal and sen the mixture as cottonseed meal throughout the corn belt.” The reports that have come &un the township Farmats- Tederahon meetings held last week in these well attended. • i. - Mich aS jUrnftara •nil netting electing meir airwwn RusseM Van Hook andthe fiSd^nd towSfep meetS.
