fake the "direct road" to health and strength by using Foley Kidney Pills for backache, rheumatism, weak, sore kidneys and bladder irregularities. Each ingredient is chosen for its positive healing and curative qualities. Foley Kidney Pills are the best medicine you can buy for kidney and bladder troubles. Mrs. J. M. Findley, Lyons, Ga., says: "I took Foley, Kidney Pills and they entirely cured me." M. C, Quigley.

Refuge in a Tree.

Robert Fair and Ben Davis enjoyed a fine coon hunt Monday night. As a result, Bob was exhibiting as fine a specimen of old raccoon as was ever seen in the palmiest hunting days of. Hancock county. It would not be surprising for a fox to give a pack of hounds a chase, but for a coon to take them on a hike of eight miles is something very unusual, but this is what was done in. the case Monday night.

The dogs struck the trail in the woods pasture of Henry Fort, in Blue River township. After making a circuit or two, the coon ran east, to the grove of Sebron Jessup, south of Trees' Shop from there it ran south to near the Western Grove Friends church, where it took refuge in a hollow tree. It climbed the tree and crawled into a hole. Mr. Fair lighted some paper and dropped it into the hole, and Mr. Coon crawled out and was captured.

Other people have chased the same coon, but had given him up as uncatchable. Mr. Fair, however, is one of the greatest: hunters in Hancock county, and the harder the catch the better he likes it and the prouder he is of the game when he gets it. So, Tuesday morning, he was showing his prize to his many friends.

Chapter Installation.

Greenfield Chapter No. 96, R. A. M., held a public installation of officers Monday evening, and there was a large attendance of members and their families. J. J.

Refuse substitutes. M. C. Quigle.v.

BY 1912 FARM CROPS

Most Profitable Agricultural Tear Ever Known in United States —Grand Total Value is

Placed at $9,532,000,000

Nineteen hundred twelve has been the most productive agricultural year in the history of this country, said James Wilson, secretary of agriculture, in his sixteenth annual report. The earth produced its greatest annual dividend. The report also includes a review of the work and achievements of the department during the sixteen years throughout which Secretary Wilson's service has extended. In part, it says: "The most effective move toward the reduced cost of living is the production of greater crops. This is attributable to the work of the department of agriculture, the agricultural college and experiment stations, and the help of the press in publishing every movement to help the farmers. "Demonstration work in southern states in the fields has been of immense benefit. Ths south has increased the food supply very much in the last few. years. "The .movement ordered by the Congress to take farm demonstration into all northern states, will bring more food into our markets. "Our fields can and will increase steadily their output in coming years as ways and means of growing heavier crops become better understood. "The nation forgot its farmers in the general scheme of education of past years few philanthropists thought of them when giving for education. The Congress is good to them. They are waking up and thinking for themselves. "The prices at the farm are generally profitable and will continue the prosperity that farmers have enjoyed in recent years. The total crop value is so far above that of 1911 and of any preceding year that the total production of farm wealth is the highest yet reached by half a billion dollars. Based on the census items of wealth production on farms, the grand total for 1912 is estimated to be $9,532,000,000."

A mean, stuffy cold, with hoarse, wheezy breathing is just the kind that runs into bronchitis or pneumonia. Don't trifle with such serious conditions, but take Foley's Honey and Tar Compound promptly. Quick and beneficial results are just what you can expect from this great, medicine. It soothes and heals the inflamed air passages. It stops the hoarse, racking cough. M. C. Quigley.

Married By the Mayor. John Crickmore and Nellie M. Darling, of Shirley, were married on Monday morning by Mayor Ora Myers in the city council chamber. The couple were accompanied by Charles and Addie Crickmore.

Mrs. Irene Stoner and daughter, Mrs. Carl Rock, attended a family dinner Sunday at the home of John McCord, of McCordsville, which was given in honor of Mr. and Mrs. Hugh E. Johnson, of Hancock, Michigan, who are visiting relatives in this county. Mr. Johnson wras formerly principal of the high school of this city.

The people who use crude oil next summer to oil streets and roads, will have to pay considerably more than they did last, the wholesale price of crude oil having advanced almost a hundred per cent.

Cut the High Cost of Living. W. H. Chapman, Winnebago, Neb. tells how he did it. "My two children had a very bad cough and the doctor's medicines did them no good. I got a bottle of Foley's Honey and Tar Compound, and before •it was all used, the children were free and cured of their cough. I saved a doctor's bill for one 25c bottle of Foley's Honey and Tar Compound." No opiates. M. C. Quigley.

SHIRLEY

Mrs. Otto McCormick and family will leave for Cheyenne, Kan., next Tuesday, where she will join her husband, who has been there for a month. They will make that state their future home. They have resided in Kennard and Shirley since childhood, and will be greatly missed by their friends.

Vercil Madison and wife spent the holidays at Anderson visiting Mrs. Madison's parents. They returned last Saturday.

Shirley has her main street now completed and the people are certainly making good use of same. This has been a long-felt want and did not come any too soon. The farmers now will have a fine road to come to town when the other roads become bad.

The public schools resumed Monday, after a short, vacation. Tom Spencer and Harvey Ogle who recently purchased a bakery at Crothersville, Ind., have sent word here that they are doing fine in their new quarters. Mr. Ogle is an experienced baker and Mr. Spencer has had a great, deal of experience in the same business.

W. R. Wilson, of Newcastle, was in Shirley Saturday on business. Cecil Morris, a farmer living south of Shirley, recently purchased an automobile, and we must say it. has not taken him long to learn how to handle it. He took a run over to Anderson Christmas day and returned in perfect safety. His family accompanied him.

The Spangler Dry Goods Company reports that their Christmas business exceeded last Christmas business to the amount of $500. This certainly shows that Shirley is an excellent place to trade.

The new flour mill soon to be erected will again make another permanent leader for our little city. The mill is to be a modern process mill of the latest machinery which is bound to give excellent service.

Who will be the Shirley postmaster? This seems to be an unsettled matter at present, and will not be settled until after March 4, then it will not be certain whether it will be a Democrat or Republican. If it is a Republican it" will be L. E. Moore, the present postmaster, but if a Democrat, it is uncertain who will get the place.

Vera Dovey, one of Kennard's stock buyers, was here Saturday on business. He is well satisfied with the political situation and believes that prosperity is certain for four years to come.

Miss Laura Huston has returned to Cambridge City after a few days' visit here with her aunt, Mrs. T. B. Jackson.

The Shirley bottle house is running' day and night now and turning out a great amount of business.

Tom Fuller, the cupola tender at. Beech Grove Foundry Co., was here Sunday with his family.

Corn at Forty Cents.

Local dealers are now paying 40 cents a bushel for 68-pound corn. This is four cents more than the market a few days ago. This price will probably bring a great deal of corn to the market.

Mr. and Mrs. Caleb Moncrief entertained at dinner Sunday, Mr. and Mrs. John Moncrief and family, Mr. and Mrs. Yard Finnell and daughter, Daisy Mrs. Elizabeth Moncrief, Miss Lulu Sipe and Mr. and Mrs. Raymond Moncrief, of New Castle.
