Sheepmen Plan State Meeting ‘Make your lambs market toppers” is the theme that stands out in the Indiana Sheep Breeders’ program to" bé held January 11 at Purdue University Many important phases of Tamb production will be presented during the ! program including results of recent ex-, pg'iments conducted by the Purdue Agricultural Experiment Station methods of treating lambs for stomacly worms and adiscussion of the outlook {of the sheep industry for the In‘diana breeders and producers. : Joseph M. Horan, head sheep ang lamb buyer for Armour and Company, Chicago will discuss factors that influence the price of lambs on the central markets and review the outlook of the sheep business for the ('*,onf? | ‘.belt states. Ar. Horan purchaseg {lambs by the thousands and his coni tact in buying tor a large packing concern Keeps him in close touch with the pulse of the sheep and lamb market. . Pasture crops made an enviable record in producing market lambs in experimental fields on the Purdue Livestock Farm during 1927. Get ready for the 1928 season by hearing Claude Harper of Purdue discuss the resulty showing the value of pasture crops in producing lambs. -~ Over 1000 farmers in Noble County have seen the lamb club demonstrai tion team show a method o: treailng lambs for stomach ‘worms. This dems onstration team representing the largest lamb club in Indiana will demonstrate a method of treating lambs for stomach worms at the sheep breeders conference. They were awarded first prize at the northeastérn Indiana Fair at Kendallyille this year among all demounstrations conducted. Dr. J. F.

Who Will Be Next? : On general appearance it does not look very f{lattering to the Goed‘md Party as to who will be next in the general mix up. Clyde Walb 'i‘epubli-_' can chairman for the last three anda onehalf years now involved in the failure of the Bank of LaGrange if convicted may oceupy the quarters recently vacated at Atlanta by Governor McCray who retired after spending three and one-half years meditating over his misdeeds while governor of our state. Clyde Walb is considered an honest man in the vicinity where he lives, but his ventures in the Walk Construction Company have placed him just where he is today besides involving Mr. Weaver -president of the LaGrange bank whose honesty and integrity were above reproach uutit he began to shield and protect Walb in his losses in conn ection with the Con truction company.—George W. Kinnison in Goshen News Times. So it is no longer the Grgnd Old Party but the *“Good” Old Party. Escape in Night Clothes. Mr. and Mrs. Walter Pepple had a narrow escape from burning to death Sunday when their flat over the barber shop of Mr. Pepple at Avilla’ became enveloped in flames while they were sleeping. Aroused from their slumbers due to the intense smoke which filled their apartment Mr. and Mrs. Pepple escaped in their night clothes. Although they braved the zero temperature thinly clad they feel none the worse today over their thrilling experience. i_ The fire started in the kitchen pre[sum;ab]_v from a defective flue. When discovered the kitchen was enveloped in flames. The fire department wag summoned and got the blaze under con trol but not until considerable damage resulted. :
Reaches Highest Mark. The cattle market in Chicago attained its ‘highest level on record except for the war period dm‘ing thg month of December according to a review issued by the. Institute of American Meat Packers. ... : Wholesale prices of most pork products reached the lowest levels they had attained since 1923. and 1924 during the same month. P Thed emand for hides exceeded pros duction and ‘prices advanced steadily while the wool'market was only a little more than moderately active with little price advance. = - e Fires Cause Big Damage. - Two fires of unknown origin ‘caused $lO,OOO damage at South Bend Monday morning.

ST e S B S ¢ I e L e S M R L e Y HAD TO ALLOW THE PENSION Statesmen Did Not Understand Na- ~ ture of Digease, So How Was Any - Other Cotirse Possible? : Representative ‘Murray of Oklahoma and Col. C. C. Harris of Alabama, for: merly an officer in the Confederate army, sat discussing a bill pending in \he - house committee on pensions. Harris ;f strongly opposed to most of tthe pension bills and Murray, on the ther hand, is equally insistent that ‘most of the bills should be passed. ‘Some of Murray’s arguments are un‘usual, . “Here’s a man who has a disease that I can't even pronounce,” said Harris, running his finger along a dotted line leading to the name of the ailment. “How am I to know he contracted such a disease as that in the; army? Or that it amounts to .anything®" - - : . s ' “That’s just the point,” declared Murray. “It’'s a disease that you and I know nothing about. -We can’'t even pronounce it. Who are we to say that it isn’t a serious disease? " The man may have been incapacitated for years."” i “1 never thought of it in that way,” admitted the ex-Confederate army officer. I suppose we'll have to allow the pension.”—Kansas City Star. SORROWS OF THE NEUTRAL Small Nations, in the Present Confiict, Seem to Be Caught Between : Two Fires. The neutral is living in a world in which vexatious and costly inroads are constantly being. made upon his means of subsistegce. The responsibility for hig losses lies between two marauding powers. Each of them indignantly repudiates all imputations of misbehavior and indignantly accuses the en« emy. Each of them claims that the way to prevent any further marauding is to hand the keys of the storehouse | to him and to lock out his opponent. - Great Britain insists that Germany cannot have it both ways. Germany insists that Great Britain cannet have it both ways. The insistence of each that the other cannot have it bothi ways does not prevent both from seeking to have it both ways. The result ; upon the fate of the belligerent of this | repudiation of all the rules remains to | be seen, but its results on the fortune of the mere neutral is erystal cleaau'.| When a number of big belligerents are insisting upon having it both ways, the inoffensive and thrifty neutral is evi-‘{ dently doomed to get it both ways.— The New Republic, ; I
London Stock Exchange Seats. It costs considerably more to become a member of the London stock exchange nowadays than in the days when its headquarters were at “Old Jonathan’s,” on Cornhill. Serving for four years as a stockbroker's clerk reduces the cost, but an outsidér has to pay an entrance fee of 500 guineis and to find three members who for the ensuing four years will be responsible for the sum of $2,500 apiece, this being forfeitable in the event of the new member being “hammered” during the period. In addition, the candidate must buy three stock exchange shares, the present price of which is about $950 per share, and he must purchase from some retiring member a nomination. This can now be bought for about $350, although when nominations were first created the top price was $3,500. Disappearing Peach Trees. Some of the Coldrado fruit growers on the eastern slope of the Rocky, mountains have adopted an ingenious method for protecting ‘their peach orchards during the winter season. The plan, which has been found to be a meritorious one; consists of bending the trees down to the ground, covering their branches with hay or straw and -then burying them under about two inches of sofl, in much the same way as blackberry and raspberry bushes are cared for in cold climates. Although in the past the peach. trees in this section suffered much damage and frequently were killed outright during the winters, by this method of culture they are surviving severe weather without difficulty and bearing good yields of fruit. 5 : The Wicked Printer. Unobserved and unannounced the president of a church soclety entered the composing room of a newspaper just in time to hear these words issue from the mouth of the boss printer: o “Billy, go to the devil, and tell him to finish that ‘murder’ he began this morning. Then ‘kill’ William J. Bryan’s youngest grandchild, and dump the ‘Sweet Angel of Mercy’ into the hellbox. Then make up that ‘Naughty Parisian- Actress’ and lock.up ‘The Lady in Her Boudoir”” . ' : Horrifled, the good woman fled and now her children wonder why they are not allowed to play with the printer's yonnester, .~ ' -+ .
