REMAIN ON FARMS INSTITUTE TALKER URGES YOUNG MEN Jones Makes Appeal Showing Opportunities of Rural Life in Lecture at Economy An appeal to young people to stay on the farm was made by J. J. JoneB of Indianapolis, in his address before the Perry township institute. An in vitation was extended to the school children of Perry township to attend the meeting. They crowded the hall Mr. Jones urged the young people to determine on some purpose early in life and set themselves to attain it. Me took occasion to praise the young man or young woman who de cided to stay on the farm, and pointed out the opportunities that lay in that direction. Miss Bessie Buell of Centerville, gave several readings and recitations, and several musical numbers added to the pleasure of the evening- In the morning session today Mr. Jones spoke on "Making An Ear of Corn." He told of the necessity for the right kind of seed, the soil conditions that must be met, and the proper methods of cultivation. Miss Buell gave two readings in the morning, and assisted in the afternoon program. Tonight a varied program of music and recitations will be given, by Miss Buell and the Economy quartet. Do You Find Fault With Everybody? An irritable, fault-finding disposition is often due to a disordered stomach. A man with good digestion is nearly always good natured. A great many have been permanently benefited by Chamberlain's Tablets after years of suffering. These tablets strengthen the stomach and enable it to perform its functions naturally. Obtainable everywhere. Adv. FIVE CENT LOAF (Continued from Page One.) most gratifying prices for corn, oats and barley; in fact, almost everything except apples, which are plentiful and cheap. This $446,500,000, which a 50cent wheat rise brings, will buy more than a million substantial automobiles. The high prices for wheat are based more on expectation of shortage than actual shortage. Well-informed men say that ' if the European war were speedily terminated it would take at least two years for Europe to get on its old wheat producing basis. And there appears no prospect of peace. No Wheat Shortage. Here are the figures showing there is no actual wheat shortage. Exports at the present rate of 8,000,000 bushels a week can continue practically up to the time of harvesting the 1915 crop without depleting the adequate supply r r wheat in this country. The United s ates department of agriculture figures there is an increase of 4,100,000 ripppH in the amount of winter wheat planted for harvesting this year. The weather has been good r r winter wheat, and last year's enormous yield of nineteen bushels an acre may well be exceeded. Figuring conservatively on a fifteen bushel yield,' however, 61,500,000 additional bushels of winter wheat alone should be harvested this year. Crop experts say that with average good fortune the spring wheat yield should be Increased 40,000,000 bushels. The total for 1915 should be 1,000,000,000 bushels, or 100,000,000 bushels more than last year's record crop. This is enough to supply America and furnish a surplus of about 41C,000,000 bushels for export. Embargo Lowers Price. If the United States chose to keep all her wheat for herself, prices would be very low in this county, certainly below $1 at Chicago, and quite probably 75 or 50 cents, which would mean bankruptcy for farmers. In many sections of the country, however, sentiment is growing for an embargo act. Several senators and representatives have declared themselves in favor of limiting the export of wheat. Another strong exponent of an embargo act is Mrs. Julian Heath of New York city, president of the Housewives' league, which represents 1,000,000 American women. Mrs. Heath says that the league has been sending notice to its members to make no effort to attack the bakers, because the latter are not responsible, but are forced to charge more because their flour costs more.

BURNING OF (Continued from page 1.) court house yard at an expense of $10,000. Change Causes Dispute. While the change from Salisbury to Centerville caused no little dissension, it is not to be compared to the fiftyyear struggle which followed between Centerville and Richmond. For more than half a century the location of the Wayne county seat was not only a question of local politics, but it even played an important part in state politics as well. The election of county officials, circuit judges, members of the legislature, and even governors, was affected by their preference for one town or the other. The struggle was the longest and most bitter county seat fight in the history of the state. The Itichmond advocates succeeded in getting several acts passed by the legislature which furnished them a basis on which to fight for removal. While there were other counties interested in some of these acts, it was Wayne county which led the fight for their passage. These j acts, six in number, are dated as follows: March 2, 1S55; December 22, 1858; March 7, 1861; June 4, 1861; December 18, 1865 and February 24, 18C9. Calls for Petition. The last act provided that whenever fifty per cent of the voters of the county petitioned the county commissioners to relocate the county seat, provided suitable grounds, and guaranteed the erection of the proper buildings that the commissioners must relocate the county seat. One June 3, 1872, a petition was drawn up and signed by 4937 voters to be presented to the board of commissioners. William A. Peele filed a remonstrance on June 5, against such action, setting forth his reasons, and asking for a continuance of the case. A majority of the board refused to continue the case, A. S. Wiggins and William Brooks opposing and O. T. Jones favoring the action of. Mr. Peele. On June 11, by the same majority the board decided that, as out of 6,842) legal voters of the county, fifty-five; per cent, had asked for the relocation A SAFE MEDICINE COLDS FOR Father John's Medicine Best for Colds and Throat and Lungs.

of the county seat, it should be removed to Richmond. Orders New Building. The board thereupon ordered that f new county buildings 'should be erect ed at Richmond if the citizens favoring that site, should, within three months after estimates were made, pay into the county treasury a sum equal to the value of, the real property belonging to the county at Centerville. The petitioners immediately accepted the offer of the board. Governor Baker on October 30, appointed Asabal Stone, William Wallace and Simon Stansifer to appraise the real estate and improvements belonging to the county in Centerville. They fixed the appraisement at $80,000, and on November 6, 1872, George W. Barnes on behalf of the petitioners for the relocation of the county seat deposited with the board of commissioners the full amount of $80,000 in Richmond city bonds as security for the appraised value of the Centerville property. The board promptly accepted the deposit, although Mr. Jones objected. The auditor was then ordered to advertise for bids for the building of a new court house and jail. George Hoover was the architect and Thomas W. Roberts got the contract for both buildings with the low bid of $22,700. By August 4, 1873, the buildings were completed and the commissioners ordered that all books, papers, furniture and occupants of the county jail should be removed to Richmond August 15, 1873.

(Continued from page 1.) and help to increase his insanity before you let him go where he can be cured? I beg you to see that there are hospitals in Indiana where mild cases can go without commitment, those nervous patients; and nervousness is practically the only symptom. "Blood tests taken in Indiana state institutions show that 18 to 25 per cent of all persons applying for treatment for everything including a broken leg, are diseased as a result of social evils. These diseases cause 20 per cent of the insanity. Indiana is spending $l,5d0 a day for the wrecks from one of these diseases alone. Evil Means Danger. "We are interested in the Seventh Commandment now because we have found to disobey it is dangerous. I am not proud of the morals which made us look with pardon on the young man sowing his wild oats. It is a most damnable thing for the churches of 1915 that they did not try to clean up their cities until they learned that to be impure is dangerous. "If you want to help one-fourth of your laboring men advance, clean up your city morally. "Help your nervous men to get relief without that jail sentence, which makes him a mental wreck later.

tise himself. , Now there is a quite complete change In the interest of public health. The medical profession finds Its duty in trying to eliminate Itself. Places where the population has doubled in twenty years, there are half as many physicians today. Science Lengthens Life. "Fifty per cent of the problems of Dublic health are solved now. This 50 oer cent is the result oi Detter laws. not of a movement for the betterment of mankind. The average life is now forty-two years, fifteen years longer than twenty-five years ago. But with the increased chance of the baby to reach mature age. those who live to forty-two or forty-three have leas chance of living longer than people who reached that age years ago. "This is because all efforts have been preventative. Tide a child through without disease, and when he is mature he stands less chance of getting them. It Is not a part of nature for the child to have measles, scarlet fever and other acute infectuous diseases. "Why can not some men earn more? It Is because they are not strong enough. They have some underlying trouble which they show only in fatigue. It is the result of a disease of childhood. Scarlet fever hurts the kidneys a little bit. That repeated tonsilitis 1b the cause of rheumatism and heart trouble. "Why Is Indiana school inspection inefficient? The doctors who make the inspections are not inefficient, but with the few hours given them thoy can not do the work justice. The public is not yet aroused to the fact that it is not a question of the doctor, but of the trained nurse. The problem of good school inspection is solved in a good trained nurse. Fear Germ Carriers. "The school nurse must keep in j touch with every pupil and must know the living conditions of each. She must know what each child Is most susceptible to. It is not the sick child in bed that we are afraid of. It Is the chil dren who are walking test tubes or living germs in the nose and throat, and the man who is walking around with germs, but feeling good. "If we are to be selfish about the health of our family, we must be altruistic in seeing that our neighbor and his family are well. "We have reduced mortality through cures, but the greater problem is that of prevention. Our studies have shown us that we are a pretty dirty crowd of cusses. As a result of failure to ob- ; serve written laws of common decency, 92 per cent of infection comes rrom dark corners of houses where the sunlight does not get. Inmates of jails, and sisters in convents have one thing in common from living in dark houses where sunlight does not get the mortality in both from tuberculosis is 75 per cent. Houses Need Cleaning.

"In America compulsory education school laws have developed faster than the protection laws. As a result a most infectuous disease is brought to school as a sore throat. The children fortify themselves against diseases by carrying living germs with them. "There are rules of common decency that every one should observe without being compelled to. A man shall not sDit where the law Bays he should not. Every house should be thoroughly cleaned and disinfected. No man should associate with his companions when he has an infectuous disease."
