NAPPANEE ADVANCE-NEWS, FRIDAY, FEBRUARY 4, 1927

(Continued from Page 1) APPROVES PLAN FOR MEMORIAL site and the grave in Spencer county. It Is appropriate that on his birthday we should exalt so great a lite and we will do so by paying tribute to the brave and gentle mother who gave him good birth and led him with a kindly hand for a little while along Ihe path to greatness. “God bless my mother; All that I am and all that 1 eves hope to be 1 owe to her,’’ Lincoln said many years after her death. To Indiana belongs the privilege of caring for the grave of Nancy Hanks Lincoln. It is litting that on the birthday of her son we should dedicate ourselves to the duty of erecting on the grounds where she lived and died a monument of our appreciation. To that end I call on all the willing people of the commonwealth, their schools, their churches and all their civic, patriotic, industrial and political organizations to give thought in public meeting to the high privilege as well as to the great duty that is ours, to dedicate ourselves to the lofty purpose by making ourselves a part of the Indiana Lincoln Union which 1 have appointed to bring the work of hive to a triumphant and honorable conclusion. IN TESTIMONY WHEREOF, 1 have hereunto set my hand and caused to be affixed the great seal of the® State of Indiana at the Capitol in- JatHauapolis this Ist day oL February, A. D. 1927. Ed Jackson, Governor of Indiana. By the governor: F. E. Schortemeier, secretary of state.

(Continued from Page 1) outlines" plan - OF FRANCE TRIP battlefields and cemeteries in France. "In order that the privileges of this trip may be available to men In all stations of life, to the veterans who would never otherwise be able to visit France, as well as to the prosperous members of the Legion, the Legion has been able to obtain reductions in steamship fares, rail rates and housing accommodations which will make the Paris convention trip the most inexpensive European tour ever planned. "The Paris convention offers opportunities which could not be obtained in any other way. There is the opportunity for those who served together abroad to visit again in the company of their former comrades the scenes of their activity during the war, the villages and quarters where they Jived precariously, the former lines where they fought and where their suffering and hardships brought victory out of defeat. "There is the opportunity for those who were not fortunate enough to go overseas to appreciate for the first time the conditions under which they would have lived had the fortunes of war been otherwise. There is the opportunity for the wives, sisters, mothers and daughters of veterans to visit the villages and the former battle lines, about which they have heard so much. And perhaps it will be a sacred opportunity to visit the grave of someone dear to them who never came back from France.

“fhere is the chance to see Paris in peace time, a friendly, brilliant Paris, offering wido and varied interests to all who may have the privileges of guests in the French capital. There will be the chance through the long period of time over which the reductions in rates are valid to travel about Europe, visit England, Italy, Belgium, go into Germany and make the side trips and excursions that were never possible during the war.”

FARMERS FACING SERIOUS SHORTAGE OF RED GLOVER SEED - -■ 1 ■*( Asa result of the fourth consecutive short crop In the United States, the supply of domestic red clover seed is far short of meeting the normal demand, according to reportß from authoritative sources. Farmers may meet this situation In two ways, by using larger amounts of imported seed aud by substituting other clovers and alfalfa for a portion of the red variety normally used. A combination of the two methods also is recommended. Discussing the use of imported seed, Director Williams of the Ohio experiment station, has issued the following statement:

"It is very important to know the source of foreign seed and to use only such as is adapted to our conditions. Tests of red clover from different sources made by the U. S. Department of Agriculture in Lorain county, Ohio, in co-operation with the experiment station and at Wooster by the station, show that Italian and some other seed is not adapted to Ohio. “When the average yield of hay from all domestic seed in the three years in Lorain county is taken as 100, the sixteen tests of Italian averaged only 64 per cent. Six tests of Hungarian averaged 93 per cent; ten each of English and Chilean seed averaged 90 and 97 per cent; sixteen from France, 105 per cent, and five each from Ohio, Idaho and Wisconsin averaged 105, 108 and 101 per cent respectively. "Italian seed in sixteen separate trials in the Lorain tests yielded only 64 per cent as much hay as the average, domestic seed. On the other hand, French seed made a record of 105, or 5 per cent better than the' average domestic seed and equal to Ohio seed as given In five trials. Chilean seed stands fairly high, 97 per cent. . “Os the domestic seed, Ohio and Idaho are highest, 105 and 108 per cent; Wisconsin about an average or 101 per cent. Other domestic strains from Tennessee, Michigan, Minesota and Oregon were grown in only two to four trials. These tests and data from other sources indicate that Michigan, Minnesota and Canadian seed is equal to the average domestic seed in production and hardness. Oregon and Tennessee clovers are not hardy enough to meet the severe winter climate of Ohio. “In Wooster experiments this year Ohjo seed averaged 1.96 tons per acre; Wisconsin, 1.98; Michigan, 1.71; Canadian, 1.68; Oregon, 1.33; Roumanian, -4.75; Chilean, 1.46; French, 1.54 and 1.23; Italian, .71.

TRIAL DATE SET The Mount Tabor “poison well’ case, in which Athol and Samuel Riley, brothers of Scott township, are charged with placing poison in the well at the Mount Tabor school, has been set for trial Wednesday, February 23, in the Kosciusko circuit court at Warsaw. Firat Purchase by Money '1 lie most ancient uud undoubtedly the earliest mention of money Is in Genesis 23, where, in the year of the world 2139, Abraham purchased In Maehpelah, from Ephron the Hlttite, a sepulcher for his wife Sarah. For this it is chronicled that he paid 400 shekels of silver by weight, as there was no coined money so early In use. Indian “Manitous” “Mnnltou” Is a name given by American Indiaps to any spirit or supernatural being, good or evil. It was common aiming western and Mississippi tribes, and was applied to any object used as a fetich or an amulet.
