PENNSYLVANIA COMPANY NOW BUYING LAND IN SOUTHWEST PART OF CITY FOR PUR­

POSE OF RELOCATING ITS MACHINE SHOPS IN GREENFIELD

BRADFORD AND INDIANAPOLIS

Shops to Be Combined in This Central Location is Plan to Be Carried Out By This Big Corporation. it is Stated—

Means a Great Boost For Greenfield.

The Pennsylvania Railway Company, one of the largest corporations in the United States, is planning to combine two of its great railroad shops in Greenfield, according to well founded reports.

This company has purchased or contracted to 'purchase the ground in the west part of the city, south of Main street, owned 'by the American Window Glass Company, and it is said the intention of the company is to purchase the ground owned. by Ball.Brothers, of Muncie, now occupied by their factory buildings, also other land in that vicinity until they have sufficient for their purpose of establishing their shops here.

It has been known for some time that this company must remove its shops from their present location at Indianapolis, and cities and towns along the line have been hoping the lightning would strike in their locality when this changc was made, and Greenfield was among these cities that have been living in hope of securing this large industrial center. It seems now that this hope is to be realized in much larger measure than the wildest dreamers had imagined, however. as the plan now is, according to report that not only to relocate the Indianapolis shops, except the roundhouse and some ware houses, in Greenfield, but also to dismantle the shops at Bradford, Ohio, and combine them with the Indianapolis shops in this central location, at Greehfield. This will take a verylarge tract of land, which, however, can easily be secured, it is thought, as there are not many that would stand in the way of bringing this great industrial advantage to our city.

The advantage to Greenfield of locating the combined Bradford and Indianapolis machine' shops here can hardly be realized. It would be equal to or better than several large factories. It w?ould not only give work to many local men, but hundreds of expert workmen and machinists would be thereby brought here from both of the above cities, as permanent residents, together with their families, which would mean probably an increase of our present population of filty per cent., with its additional advantage in the way of increased business in every line and an enhancing of the real estate values in a short time. The entire community surrounding Greenfield would be benefited, as the demand for more produce right here at home would help the farmers, stockmen and truck growers/ and there is not a line of business in the city that would not be profitably effected.

Good Convention Sunday. The Sugar Creek township Sunday school convention held at Gem Sunday was well, attended, and ia good program was given. Several people from, here attended.

WALLACE'S FARMER COMMENTS

On Citizen's Bank Corn Show, Held in Greenfield Recently.

Wallace's Farmer, a well known and popular farm magazine, comments on the recent corn show by the Citizens' Bank, as follows:

The Citizen's Bank at Greenfield. Ind.. last spring announced that it would hold a corn show7 late in the winter, and urged the corn growers of Hancock and adjoining counties to aid in the movement by selecting better seed corn and by giving better attention to the cultivation of the crop. To all those that the bank .-onId interest in the movement, it furnished the latest bulletin-? from the Purdue Agricultural School on all phases of the selection of seed corn, its cultivation, and the selection of corn and its grading and -coring, as required by the Indiana Corn Growers' Association. This exhibit was held two weeks ago at Greenfield, and there were eightyone entries. Liberal cash premiums amounting to §550. were distributed. and there was a constant stream of viewers for four days, looking at the exhibit, and much good has resulted throughout eastern Indiana. Visitors were present from many counties of Indiana, besides Illinois, Missouri. Iowa, Kansas, Michigan and New York were represented. The bank paid all expenses as well as premiums, and returned all exhibits, urging the exhibitors to use their best corn for seed for the coming season. Another exhibit for 191 was announced.

WILL RAZE SCHOOL BUILDING AND USE MATERIAL HERE

Oscar .lackson, of this city, has the contract to raze the Frazierand .White Haven school houses. At a public sale of these school houses recently. Lee C. Thayer purchased the buildings and is having them wrecked and will bring the material to Greenfield for building purposes,

The buildings were in good condiion. but on account of the combining of schools under the present school system, they had been abandoned for school purposes. The Frazier school house was constructed only a few years ago, and cost $2,500.

ENJOYMENT AT HOME

Don't shut up your house, lest the sun should fade your carpets and your hearts, lest a merry laugh sUould shake down some of the musty old cobwebs there. If you want to ruin your sons and daughters, let them think that all mirth &nd social enjoyment must be left on the threshold without, when they come home at night. When once a home is regarded as only a place to eat, drink, and sleep, the work is begun that ends in endless degradation. Young people must have fun and relaxation somewhere and if they do not have it at. their own hearthstones it will be sought at other and less profitable places. Therefore. let the fire burn brightly at night and make 1he homestead delightful with-- all {hose little arts that parents so perfectly understand—and children appreciate.

Don't' repress the buoyant spirit of your children: half an hour of merriment around the lamp and firelight of a home blots out many a care and annoyance during the day, and the best safeguard they can take with them into the world is the unseen influence of a bright little domestic circle. Put home first and foremost, for there will come a time when the home circle will be broken when you will "long for the touch of a vanished hand, and the sound of a voice that has been forever stilled."

REPUBLICAN, THURSDAY, MARCH 5, 1914

OLDFIELD AND FISHER FEUD

Recalled by Announcement That Barney Oldfield Will Pilot Mercer Racing Team

Indianapolis, March 2. Should Barney Oldfield captain the Mercer I racing team this season, as is persistently rumored, the feud between the veteran and Carl G. Fisher, owner of the Indianapolis Motor Speedway, which at one time resulted in the former's banishment from the track, promises to be revived once more. For when Oldfield, as head of the yellow-jacketed aggregation, presents himself for entry in the next 500-mile race on the Hoosier race-course, Fisher is altogether likely to say "Nix!"

Oldfield and the speedway magnate fell out in 1911, when the driver's erstwhile manager, the celebrated Bill Pickens, said several hard things about, the speedway and organized racing in general, pursuant to his disbarment from Ihe A. A. A. for racing against Jack Johnson on a dirt track at Brighton Beach. The upshot of the matter was that Fisher swore that Oldfield would never drive on his place again, a promise made good later, when a proposed match race between the hippodromist and Burman was called off on his account.

Since then three 500-mile races have been run, with Oldfield never a contender in any of them. True, Barney has been present at the ringside, once even in the role of would-be relief driver, but never has he been accorded the privilege of actually taking the wheel. The question of the hour, therefore, is, will precedent be waived and the bans set aside, in the event he enters with the Mercer team, or will they not

The only man who can answer this riddle, C. G. Fisher, is at present wintering in Florida, with nothing farther from his mind than the speedway. Nor will he return until April. For the time being, therefore, the problem must remain unanswered.

A ray of light is thrown upon the situation, however, by Oldfield's recent conduct, which, since quitting the mile track game, has been exemplary. Pickens is no longer his confidant, nor is he grabbing off the bush league velvet anymore. On the contrary, all of his contests have been against the keenest competition, with a high-grade record to his credit throughout. During the past season, Earl Cooper, the brilliant Californian, was about the only one to have anything on him. For this reason, when the veteran comes into court next time, Fisher may relent and admit him to the sacred portals of the Indianapolis track after all. Fisher is a sportsman, if anything, and therefore, if Oldfield comes clean, will play fair with him all the way. dw (Advertisement)

BUYING OF FURS TAKES REAL MONEY

Jesse O'Neal, of Eden, Purchased Over $17,000 Worth This Season ,$3,000 Worth of One .\laii.

The buying of furs takes considerable cash, if one would judge by the record of Jesse O'Neal, of Eden, and his brother, W. T. O'Neal, of Rushville, who are the best known fur buyers and shippers in this part of the country.

Jesse O'Neal is located at Eden, and buys furs of individuals and dealers in all the surrounding counties and a single purchase sometimes runs into thousands of dollars. A short time ago he purchased of J. W. Myers, of Cambridge City, his furs, accumulated dui'ing the season, and wrote a check to cover the purchase of $3,060. This bill of furs included 5 house cats, 616 opossums, 32 mink,! 639 muskrats, 62 coons, 12 brown

weasles, 6 white weasles, 2 gray fox and 1 red fox and 701 skunk skins. Friday he purchased Solotken Brothers' furs here, paying them $122. Mr. O'Neal's brother at Rushville, has purchased about $40,000: worth of furs the past year, and Jesse has purchased about $17,000 worth. I

ILL INCREASE

EXTENSION OF KiciHT LIMIT TO 50 POUNDS EXPECTED TO INCREASE SHIPMENT OF

FARM PRODUCTS

The raising or the weight limit from twenty to fifty pounds in thei first two zones on parcel post mail,' which went into effect the first of January, is expected to develop this new department for the. delivery of farm products, and it is thought! will have much lo do with doing away with middlemen, is the opinion of many. ...

During the first six months of the service, notwithstanding its high rates and restricted business, the parcel post made §1 -5,000,000. That much money was added to the postal revenues between January 1st and June 30th. During the last six months it is believed that the parcel post traffic almost doubled in volume.

This opinion is based on two facts. The merchants of all leading cities and towns last, fall turned their retail package business over to the parcel post. They did not patronize the new postal system last spring because then it was more or less an experiment. In addition to this large package business the Christmas traffic was the heaviest in the history of the postoffice department. Reports from the postofiices of the country show that all previous records were smashed during Christmas week. Many postofiices reported increases ranging from 300 to COO per cent.

January 1st the second extension of the parcel post service went, into effect. This extension raises the weight limit in the first and second zones, within distances of 225 miles of rail line from the shipping point, from twenty lo fifty pounds, and increases Ihe weight limit in the next, four zones to twenty pounds. A big reduction in rales for the third, fourth, fifth and sixth zones is embraced in the extension. Un­| der this extension, it is believed that the Ira (Tic, when the spring business opens up, will triple that of last fall.

James A. Furgason and G. C. Winslow have each purchased a Ford automobile of O. H. Monger & Son, for April delivery.
