Hamilton county business has been hard hit by bank and trust company failures.

\V. P. Bidgood, who returned from a trip in the West a few days ago. says business in the West is very dull.

Republicans continue to organize throughout Indiana. They are making the declaration of state chairman, Will II. Hays, that there would be no closed season in Indiana politics, good.

A Greenfield boy who lost his job at Indianapolis on account of the dullness of business, a few days ago, reports that there are 25.000 unemployed laborers in that city. He said he was let out at a time when it would seem that business in his line would be good.

•••••The evidence being given in the trial in the federal court at Indianapolis disclosed a condition at Terre Haute beyond the conception of men I'.xpenoneed in politics. It is for the jury to decide who is guilty and who is not. but from the published accounts, it is very clear that someone has been brazenly and brutally crooked and corrupt beyond comprehension of intelligent citizens.

The temperance people are getting a great deal of satisfaction for their cause, from the restrictions which are being placed around the liquor traffic in the European countries which are now at war. The fact that a leading statesman of England would publicly declare that the liquor business was a worse enemy to their armies than Germany, disclosed a condition which is hardly imaginable, but being so, the Aemriean people may well use every effort in time of peace to suppress the sreat evil.

The farmer who does not put in extra "licks" this year is either extremely indifferent or does not need money. The greatest opportunity ever offered to the American farmer is.surely now in sight.

Ina Reddick Baker Dead. Mrs. Ina Reddick Baker died on the operating table at the Methodist hospital Monday at noon. She was being operated on for a tubercular 1 The deceased was formerly Miss Ina Reddick. She lived in this at one time and attended the Greenfield high school. She was a member of the Kappa Soriority and was married to Fred Baker, of Knightstown, December 23, 1914. The funeral will occur at Knightstown, Thursday morning at 10 o'clock.

The Sunshine Circle of the Christian church spent a very pleasant afternoon Thursday with Mrs. E. Meisel. An extensive program was given. Some charity' work was done. Dainty refreshments were «erved by the hostess.

Some one said a few days ago that the farmers should cultivate their fence corners. He had in mind and was talking about the demand that was sure to be for the agricultural products of the United States within the next year. It is not out'hllsy of place to suggest to farmers that corn, they should be mindful of the fact! •^I'that there will surely be a demand spont for the crops and other products now growing, never before known. Such a demand will without doubt housi greatly advance the prices and en- I M''able them to derive greater profits from their business than ever before. Every acre that can be cultivated should be cultivated, ami every acre cultivated should be made to produce the maximum crop. With this in view it behooves everybody interested in agriculture to do everything in their power to make the soil respond to the best advantage. Every ton of manure on the farm should be on the fields. Every ditch should be working. The ground should bej broken deep. The seed bed thoroughly made. The seed most carefully selected. The crop most carefully tended and harvested, because everything indicates that the price! will be profitable and satisfactory.

The Right ol way to success.

It belongs to them who intelligently prepare themselves for it. The necessary requirements are good habits, a fair education, ability to save, and a grim determination to win out.

A young man so equipped is bound to make something of himself. He will need the co-operation of a first-class bank, hence we extend to him the cordial hand of fellowship.
