One of the weakening factors in what was a lack of demand for the cash article, sales . here being on six thousand bushels, .all . of which were taken by exporters, and 140,000 bushels of corn were sold here, of which 75,000 bushels were traded from one shipper .to another. Cash oats sales amounted to 205,000 bushels.

BECK TO PLANT FLOM PLOTS Receives Permission to Beautify Grounds With Hedge and Blooming Plants. Permission to receive bids' to make a garden spot of the post office lawn, has been received from the treasury department by Postmaster Beck and he probably will bring into use several landscape decorative plans. The postmaster has been trying for some time to secure an appropriation to make the post office yard a bright spot in the center of the city. His plan includes a short hedge just inside the curb which borders the lawn and a number of flower beds filled with plants selected to keep some flow

ers in blossom from early spring to

late fall. . "The fact that the department has given 'permission, to receive, bids for the work is practically an assurance that it ; will be done," Mr. Beck said, "A email wre fence probably 'will be

put up around the lawn mnd. a, hedge -planted - Just inside. : The . fence will be removed when the, hedge .has grown enough." '-. -; y ; ' vV.;,,

GLOBE SAYS U. S. BARTERS HER SOUL FOR PARTY VOTES LONDON, March 31. The Globe commenting today on the American government's attitude toward the sinking of . the Falaba by a German submarine with heavy loss of life says: "To this country and her allies it is of no moment whether America protests or remains silent for justice will

De meted out in due course for all those German crimes ; but for America it means everything. For the guardIan for one hemisphere of the world, the champion of freedom against force to keep guilty silence while the innocent are being murdered is to see her very soul sold for political votes."

COUNTY INFIRMARY ; WITHOUT ANY MS OF FIRE PROTECTION

"The Muncle Infirmary fire is a sinister warning to all counties of the state,'' declared Postmaster Beck today, speaking in his capacity of chairman of the county board of charities nnd corrections,, whose duty it is to visit all' county institutions and recommend changes for betterment. Mr. Beck asserted that the Wayne county infirmary is without fire protection except such as can be punipel by hand to a tank. ; "It would not have more pressure than a garden hose at best," Mr. Beck said. " . ' " - '- . - ; Appointed by Fox." The postmaster was " appointed to serve on the board by Judge Foi who

is commissioned by the state board of

chanties and corrections to make the appointments. He presided at the first session of the county Doard yesterday, "I found that matters have been left drifting in the past " two or three years," he said. "Of course we cannot compel the county commissioners to i.ake repairs or improvements and' wo cannot order them ourselves but we can make strong recommendations and this is probably what we shall do in the .case of the infirmary." Joseph- Commons of Centeryille, 3 member of the board -and Mr. Beck probably will make the infirmary inspection next Tuesday. The latter patt of the week, Mr. Beck and other mem

bers of the board will inspect the jails. This includes the city jail, county jail and women's jail which is a part of the Home for Friendless Women.
