A man who is thoroughly familiar with the automobile business in speaking about reckless operating of machines said today that some of the Greenfield people would meet with serious accidents if they did not use more care in the manipulation of their autos. Nothing beats being careful in the management of a machine.

The mad-dog scare has removed dogs almost entirely from the streets. This is a very satisfactory condition, and the average citizen is much pleased with it. The dog nuisance is a big one, and no one should be permitted to keep a dog who allows it to become a nuisance to his neighbors. No one would endure a neighbors hog if it ,w&s a nnisance. Then why entlufe his dog. ,r

The men go to political conventions and the women go to Sunday school conventions. There are some exceptions in both cases. A few women go to political conventions and some -men to Sunday school conventions. Women should take more interest in politics and men more interest in

Sunday school. More women in polities would make -better politics, and more men in Suuday school would benefit Sunday school.

AND ADVERTISERS

On account of the large circulation of the Daily Reporter and the limited capacity of the newspaper press of this office, it has become necessary to go to press on the weekly Republican early Thursday morning. Country correspondence and advertisements received Thursday morning seldom appear in the Weekly paper. We regret this but it can not be avoided under present conditions. It therefore becomes necessary to mail local country news sent to us by our correspondents, not later than Tuesday morning, and advertising for the Weekly must be in the office not later than Wednesday afternoon. 21t3

ALFALFA GROWING.

The articles on the subject of Alfalfa written by Mr. Thad Snow of Blue River township and published in this paper have been read with much interest by many farmers. They have attracted attention outside of Hancock county. An editor of a prominent paper in the extreme southern part of the state, seeing and reading the first of the series of articles, reproduced it, giving due credit to Mr. Snow and this paper, and wrote to this office asking for the others in order that he might print them. The subject of raising alfalfa is a timely one. Mr. Snow prepared the discussions because he is not only deeply interested in all kinds of farming but also because he is convinced that the farmers can produce alfalfa in this section and thereby add a very profitsable staple crop to the other money making crops which our farmers are now engaged in raising. The more crops that can be raised at a profit in our county the greater variety will our farmers have to select from, and the greater resources will they have in case of the failure of some of the crops.

Mr. Snow has tried alfalfa and is thoroughly convinced that it can be raised successfully. He is certain also that it will be profitable and that it will become a necessity in order that the farmers of Indiana may produce and prepare for market cattle in the most profitable manner. If the claims which are coming from apparently reliable sources that the farms of the United States must produce larger amounts per acre if the growing population of the country is to be supplied by them, is true, then every crop which promises to increase the yield of the farm should receive the most careful consideration of the farmers. There can be no question but that alfalfa is a great profitable crop, producing fabulous returns. Mr. Snow's articles have been conservative and still they have been convincing, and the farmers of the county may profitably confer with him in regard to raising this great crop.

At Shubert Murat Theatre.. The appearance of Mary Mannering in "AMan's World," the latest play by Rachel Crothers, author of "The Three of Us" at the Shubert Murat Theatre next Friday and Saturday and Saturday Matinee, April 28-29, assures theatre-goers of one of the greatest delights of the present dramatic season. Miss Matnering, through her appealing feminine art and personal beauty, fills a position in the esteem of theatre-goers perhaps second to no other artist on the American stage. She comes supported by well known players headed by Charles Richman, one of the best recognized leading men on the stage and himself until recently a star. The. Shuberts who control the steller career of Miss Mannerng, have given Miss Crother's play a setting of the usual order of excellence that surrounds all their productions.

Miss Mannering's new role, it is promised, has an appeal to men and women theatre-goers alike. It de lineates the character of a woman who enters "a man's world'' and combats for what she considers has been a wrong. It is promised to be a strong play of an unusually high tone of moral intent and through throwing down the gauntlet to certain abuses to which the world has closed its eyes should win to its purpose those who look to the drama as a means of public uplift.

The popularity won by Miss Crothers in her play of "The Three of Us" leads to the expectation' of local theatre-goers that in her present drama she has been found even a greater success. Miss Mannering has just concluded a most successful engagement of three months at the New York Comedy theatre. In her supporting company are Frank Mills, John Sampoles, Arthur Berthelet, Frank Perrin, Ruth Holt Boucicault, Helen Ormsbee and others. There will be one matinee, on Saturday.

Seats Tuesday, April 26. Mail orders now.

The Designer for May.

Five women have the five big articles in THE DESIGNER for May, which makes it typically a woman's number. Minnie J. Reynolds, in "Back to the Soil in Cleveland,'' tells the remarkable way in which children children of that city are being taught to garden in the public schools. Cleveland is the only city in the world where gardening is part of the school course, and in the article is a message to every city in the country. "The Woman of Beautiful Statues" describes the work of Vinnie Ream Hoxie, who as a school girl modeled Lincoln and now holds first rank as a sculptor. Helen Corinne Hambidge writes on "The Daughters of the Confederacy." "I Married a Musician" tells the experiences of a musician's wife, and what happened when he to worship an Ideal in music. Mrs. Jacques Futrelle's serial, "The Gilded Path," is brought to a breathless end, while Honore Willsie's new serial "Days in the Desert," begins. There are also the stories by Sara Lindsay Coleman and Thomas L. Masson. The fashions are very alluring and authentic. It is an especially good number.

Where The Batchers Teach Wives How To Select Meat

In Phoenix, Arizona, the women's club recently gave an afternoon to the study of beef. The proprietor of one of the local markets and the chef of the Hotel Adams were invited to come and address the club. The first brought with him a chart of beef and numerous anatomical exhibits by the aid of which he told his audience how to select good beef and how to know the different commercial cuts by their Western names, which were often a puzzle to* transplanted Eastern housewives. He also told the uses to which the various cuts were best adapted and how a good piece might be spoiled by a bad job of cooking. The chef followed with an entertaining talk on the art of cooking. He told of many methods, gave many recipes for preparing and serving meats, and showed that a poor piece

UNCLE JOE. THE

"Uncle Joe, the Enquirer Man," well known among the newspaper men of Indiana, was in Greenfield Wednesday, representing the Cincinnati Enquirer. His business card is characteristic of the man. In addition to his picture he has the following: The Difference—Tennyson could take a worthless sheet of paper, write a poem on it, and make it worth $65,000—that's genius. Vanderbilt can write a few lines on a sheet of paper, and make it worth §500,000— that's capital. The United States can take an ounce and a quarter of gold and stamp upon it an eagle bird, and make it worth $20—that's money. A mechanic can take material worth $5, and make it into watch springs worth $1,000—that's skill. A merchant can take an article worth 75c, and sell it for $1—that's business. A lady can purchase a hat for 75c, but she prefers one for $27—that's foolish. A ditch digger can work ten hours a a day, handle several tons of earth for $1.50—that's labor. I can write a check for $80,000, but it would net be worth a ,—that's rough. But any one can order the Enquirer, the cheapest and best weekly paper on earth, of UNCLE JOE, Enquirer, Cincinnati, O. Write for terms and get in the business, make money— that's common sense.

Did you ever see a hypocritical piece of Furniture? It pretended to be so and so— but it was REALLY behind the, varnish something very different. Such Furniture as that neyer fooled me—and never will. The sham is too easy to see through. With this store there is never any masquerading. Oak is always oak—mahogany is mahogany. If you pay for a certain quality you get THAT quality—always. My confidence comes from a knowledge of what's what in FurniI can truthfully say that I never asked anybody to view an assortment that was quite as worthy, and at such low prices.
