June 24 —Members of ail of the thrashing companies In Hamilton County held a meeting in this city Thursday and adopted the following schedule of prices for the season : Oats, 4 cents a bushel: wheat, 8 cents a bushel: rye, 12 cents a bushel: barley, 6 cents a bushel.

Legion Notes Few bucks can equal the record of Ralph G. Patterhson, Hoosier of strong Irish extraction, who went A. W. O. L looking for the battle. He found it. Patterson left his quiet home in Muncie early in search of excitement. He found what he wanted on the cattle ranches of the Northwest. His life in riding the ranges was the most exciting career that he'd heard of until he conveyed a carload of cattle to Chicago in April, 1917. and I found out that America had enter’d the war. So did Pat. Going to France with Headquarters Troop of the Ist Division shortly after Pershing, Private Patterson was stationed in the peaceful French village of Gondre- ! court for weary and drab months while the battle was going on without him. ; Finally he and two buddies hopped a French meat truck bound for the front. I It took them as far as Bar-le-Duc, from which place they hiked in the direction of the firing They found the front line trenches around Luneville introduced themselves to the amazed noilus and declined to leave because they couldn't understand what the horizon blues were so excited about. After ten days an American officer came to the front after them. They polished the company’s pots and pans for two weeks for their pains. Patterson finally found enough excite- ! tent. At Cantiguy he came through uu- j scathed. At Soissons a machine gun j bullet got him through both ankles. At ! Selcheprey he jumped into r. shell hole I oo top of a German with a bayonet. ' High explosive which got him In the Argonne on Oct. 4, 1918, left his right leg stiff, tore open his shoulder and broke his nose. His days of excitement j are over.

Paul recently began s fight which it will carry to the Supreni j Court of the State if necessary. Public officials vested with appointive powers have failed to consider qualified veterans of the World War in their appointments, it was charged. The law provides that men with military or naval records shall, all other things being equal, be given preference in State appointments. Former soldiers of Clinton, Mass., desired a suitable mounment to their war dead. The selection of the city acquiesced, but they wished to erect the memorial themselves. They made two different promises to begin the work. One morning, "Patroits - Day” in Massachusetts, the town awoke to find each member of the local post of the American Legion carrying a round bowlder through the streets. The men deposited the stor.es in a certain spot in the park, put up a bronze tablet bearing the names of their eighteen dead and held appropriate serv ices. Stonemasons of the legion post completed the work in short order. During the finishing touches a Greek veteran spoke on “Our Flag" and a Polish veteran on "Our Country ” On the tablet which the legion dedicated was the name of Perley 1,. Hamilton, the first member of the Elks’ lodge to be killed in France. “They talk about the shattering efTect of the war on the soldiers’ morals," observes “The Legion-Airs," official publicati l of Sergt.

A shipment of 132 bodies of soldier dead arrived recently in Omaha, Neb . from France. An Vld man passed silently among the rows of coffins in the baggage room of the railroad station. On the field of eaeh flag coverlet he laid his hand and when he raised it, there gleamed forth a single gold star. The veteran. J. M.
