Plans for a county xnlbit of samples of wheat, oats, timothy, clover and alfalfa, to be held in the Coliseum In Richmond in September are being fostered and promoted by Dr. I. S. Harold as president of the National Old Trails Road association. He is urging the various township association officers to persuade the farmers within the next days to select samples of their best grade crops for this exhibition. It is proposed that the collection brought in by the farmers be deposited first at some central place in their respective townships and later be brought to Richmond for general display. During the exhibit in the Coliseum prizes will be awarded for first, second, third and fourth grade crops. The exhibit will be held for three days, if the township asociation

Editor Palladium: i Just recently I was reading about how our shade trees in the streets are being damaged by house movers. Let me tell some experience I have had in the last year. At this time last year .the gas line on West Main street sprung a leak and the gas found its way out under the curb and killed three Norway maple shade trees, twelve years old, valued at $75, also killing the grass on. the 1 awn vain or)

at $25. The Gas company paid $5 toward the new trees and set them out last fall. About the 1st of May this year I called up the Oas company and

injormea me superintendent that the

iree were aying ana I thought that

me gas was tne cause. He politely informed me he did not think there was any gas escaping and that he had done

an ne couja ror my shade trees so no investigation was made. Last Monday I noticed the grass was dying on the front banks of my lawn so I notified th

to make an investigation at once. They

aia so ana discovered the main pipe line bursted about fifteen feet farther west than the one last year. So any one can see the Gas company has got the house mover beat a mile when it comes to destroying property on the highway. One man said he was sur? prised that the Board of Works had taken no notice of the paved streets being torn up and damaged. The reason of that is because it happened on the wrong side of Richmond and I might just as well go out on the ocean and sit on an iceburg and look for mosquitoes as to try to get more than $200 a tree out of the pas company for the seven trees the gas has killed for me in the last year. This proves conelusHlv that thJ

City 6hould control the trees in the street and draw up an ordinance worth while and enforce it. T. C. HUBBARD, 117 West Main Street.

mers. Later the collection will be forwarded to Indianapolis for display during the annual state fair, as Wayne county's representation in the agricultural department. Dr. Harold in explaining the pre posed exhibit said, "Agriculture in Wayne county is the fundamental basis of our stability and progress and adds more to the wealth of the county each vear than from All ntnar nnr.

ces combined. This is true of the nation as well. It is important then that the farmers in the county should receive just consideration from all Our citizens. "The conveniences of the county should be made as nearly equal to the City as is DOSSible hv nripmiatA and

easy means, so that home making in

tne county may keep pace with home making in the city. "The townehin aasortiationa fan h.

come a great factor in improving the

social ana economic condition of their respective communities, and as these are federated together into a county

unit must result in a better under

standing and friendship for all sections of the county."
