NONE DISCHARGED BY HOOSIER DRILL Report About American Seeding Machine Co. is Without Foundation.

The County Agricultural Agent

. Reports that the American Seeding Machine Company had laid off a number of factory hands were denied this morning by the officials of the company. The rumor is without foundation and no such action is contemplated by the company. Many men who were laid off at the Rumely plant are finding employment elsewhere In the city. Several men have signified their intentions of going to Dayton, where employment has been offered to skilled mechanics and factory men. The number of men laid off at the Rumely shops is said to be 350, rather than 250, which was given out by officials. Shipments of the machine manufactured by the company will be made within a few weeks and it is expected that many of the men will be taken back to work. The 150 men employed in the gasoline and clover engine and clover huller department are not anticipating leaving the city if they can not find employment here. Though they have been offered work at La Porte or Battle Creek. Th report that men were being laid off at both plants of the other cities is not encouraging. It was a "blue" crowd which left the shops Saturday, after being notified that they would not be able to continue work until further notice. The report that more men would probably be laid oft is said to be without foundation. The work of tearing out the drills and gear gutters in the departments which are to be transferred is now going on.

CURED OF CHRONIC CONSTIPATION. "For twenty-one years I suffered with chronic constipation," says C. W. Robinson, of Cordova, S. C. "In May, 1908, it had assumed a more serious form, resulting in indigestion, piles and neurasthenia. Life seemed a burden to me. Two famous physicians and one specialist with all their drastic drugs failed to help me. A friend advised me to give Chamberlain's Tablets a trial, which I did. and am pleased - to say two bottles of them cured me." For sale by all dealers. Advertisement!

MOTORCYCLE NOTES

A 100-mile spin was enjoyed last Sunday by members of the Houston .Tex.t Motorcycle club. "Raisin Day," April 30, will be celebrated in Fresno, Cal., by motorcycle and automobile events, f It Is estimated that there are 28,641 motorcycles in use in France. A motorcycle-mounted department of state militia may be organized in Indiana in the near future. This is the outgrowth of the efficient aid given the militia by motorcycles during the recent high waters. Davenport, la., has been added to the list of cities using motorcycles for delivery purposes. Residents along the main street of Bakersfield, Cal., enjoyed a very pretty sight when the Bakersfield Motorcycle club returned from its recent, poppy run to White Wolf Grade. Each of the long line of machines was gaily decked in the gorgeous flowers. Bartlesville, Kas., has begun a war against speeders, and a motorcycle policeman has been detailed to patrol the paved streets and arrest all violators of the law. The member of the Houston (Tex.) Motorcycle club who brings the most new members into the club by July 4th will be presented with a motorcycle lamp. A motorcycle race on a six-mile course was one of the features of Blossom Festival of San Francisco, Cal. So far this spring one Columbus, Ohio, dealer has received three car loads of motorcycles. A motorcyclist of Kansas has made a very effective protector against mud and dust by cutting a raincoat up the back almost to the waist and putting snap fasteners on each side so that he can fasten it about his legs when riding.

BY I. I TOTTEN. Only a few years ago the fanner's needs were given very little consideration by our law-making bodies. The farmer was not looked upon as a very important factor in the progress of our nation. Today the sentiment is quite different, and the farmer is gradually coming into his own. The people, as a whole, are realizing

; more and more the importance of our

agriculturalists; they feel that something must be done toward putting the occupation of farming on a more business-like basis. In fact, the ideas regarding farming have been practically revolutionized, and instead of lampooning the farmer as formerly, practically everybody seems inclined to do all they can to help him along. Each year we find the agricultural work of the state coming closer and closer home to the farmer. The latest

'move in this direction is the county

agricultural agent. The legislature of Indiana recently passed a vocational bill, and it is now a law, that contained a section regarding the county agricultural agent. According to the provisions of this act, where twenty or more residents of the county, who are actively interested in agriculture, file a petition with the county board of education, and deposit $500 to be used in defraj ing expenses, the county council shall appropriate $1500 for the payment of salary and expenses, and the state will pay one half of the salary, up to $1,000 for the employment of an expert agriculturist and soil man to be employed in the county. Duties of the Agent. The duties of the agent are: to advise farmers, test soils and do all experimenting that may seem wise, to assist the county school superintendent in the organizing of boy's and girl's clubs, to assist In farmer's institutes, and to do everything that is possible, in a general way for the advancement of agricultural and rural life in the county. The county agent proposition, of course, is not original with Indiana; but I have not heard of another state that has taken the matter up on just exactly the same basis as it is handled in Indiana. Now, the question arises: are there enough live farmers in various counties to take advantage of the opportunity offered to get this service? Only thirty of the counties in Indiana can avail themselves of this opportunity during the year ending September 30th, 1914. Benefits Incalculable. Many counties in the various states have taken up the county agent proposition without state aid. In many places the business men realizing that their interests depended largely upon the development of the agricultural interests of the county, have clubbed together and employed an agricultural expert and it has proven very profitable. There are localities where farmers at first did not take kindly to the advice of the expert; but eventually the sentiment was completely reversed and today the expert in such localities is the busiest man in the county, and the benefits of his service are considered incalculable. The work of the county agricultural agent in some counties which have already added his services to the county is not confined solely to advice regarding crops and stock, but he investigates general conditions, such as: cooperative buying of fertilizers, cooperative selling of farm necessities,

co-operative banks, employing of farm labor, etc. The field is so broad which needs the attention of a man of this kind that every county should have an agricultural agent. An agricultural agent should be a man who is practical in every sense of the word one who can go right out on the farm and take hold of the work as though he knew how. It is well for him to have the theoretical knowledge; but he must be practical if his work is to be successful. Important Factor. In my mind the county agent is a more important factor toward the communities welfare than the lawyer to whom some of us pay excessive rates for practically useless service; he is as important as a soil doctor as the M. D. is as a doctor of sick individuals. He can render a service if given the proper encouragement that will add more to the wealth of the community than the service of any other public official of today. He can render a service that will tend to build up the agricultural section; start to work the big unused factory our waste lands and bring the famer to a closer realization of the importanceof applying businesslike methods in his farm operations.

(National Xews Association) NEW YORK, April 22. The auction sale of part 1 of the William J. Latta collection of the relics of Napoleon began this afternoon at the Anderson Galleries, Madison avenue and 40th street, and will close on the night of April 24th. Part 1 contains the library, bronzes and important selections from the prints and autographs collected by Mr. Latta, of Philadelphia. According to A. M. Broadley of England, an international authority upon Napoleon collections, the Latta accumulation is the finest in the world and far superior to the one owned by the Czar of Russia, who has expended enormous sums on his collection. Parts 2 and 3 of the Latta collection which will be sold later include an extensive collection of medals, minatures and snuffboxes.
