BETTER FARMING ORGANIZATION IS PERFECTED HERE

Harry Macey of Dalton Township Heads Association Formed at Meeting Friday. t A large and repreBentative body of Wayne- County Agriculturists meet at the court house on Friday afternoon, for the purpose of organizing the "Wayne County Better Farms Association. Many of those taking part were exhibitors and visitors at the corn show and all were directly Interested in the alms and particular purposes for which the meeting was called. After the object of the meeting had been briefly explained by County Agent Kline, the speaker Introduced Prof. G. W. Rosehcrans, of Purdue, who discussed the need for such a county organization most instructively. Prof. Rosencrans spoke from experience and cited the results obtained in several Indiana counties by the active work of Better Farms Associatlons. His talk was so impressive and

convincing that when he finally read the proposed Constitution and . By Laws the meeting was ready for the discussion and for prompt action. Objects cf the Association. Section 1 The objects of this association shall be: (a) The organization of the forces of Wayne county that are interested In the development of agriculture and country life that they may study the best methods of procedure and harmonize their efforts In bringing about the development of these interests.

(b) To develop a community spirit

and an interest in agriculture and country life. (c) To co-operate with the county agent in furthering the development of the agricultural resources. Various other Sections and By Laws formed a part of the plan of organization but the section cited sufficiently explains the scope and character of the new Association. It is evidently destined to have a broad and benefi-j cent effect in this country t if it aims

and useful purposes are completely carried out. Officers Elected. After considerable interesting discussion nominations wero in order and '.lie following officers were elected:

French Orphan Adopts Yank and Comes to U. 5. . (By Associated Press) NEW YORK, Jan. 4. In care of Capt. Peter B. Kyne, California author and soldier, Marcel, an orphan, came to America today on the troop transport Matsonia. This 10-year-old adventurer, whose last name was not known by the One Hundred and Fortyfourth Artillery, which adopted him, hadattached himself to a French regiment, after his mother had been deported to Germany and his father had been killed in battle, and each time the pollus went over the top Marcel " went along four times against the Germans without being

wounded. , -

Then the American trooDs came

along and Marcel met Capt. Kyne,

commanding Battery A, and went with the battery. The deserted poilus made representations to the Americans to return Marcel to them, but

Capt. Kyne objected. Marcel enjoyed eating American chocolate and protested also. ' When the One Hundred and Fortyfourth embarked homeward Marcel stowed away inside a bass drum case, and revealed himself, three days out, only when hunger and thirst forced him out. Capt. Kyne said he would adopt the boy and take him to San Francisco.

At the present time the city of Richmond has the reputation of the lowest electric light rates in the state. The accountant for the commission pointed out that the discount rates were also the highest known and that these discounts should be readjusted as soon as possible. On the present valuation of $000,000 the city is earning 14 per cent, which is almost double what the commission would permit a private company to earn, but if the value of the plant is $1,000,000 the earnings would be about 9 per cent., which would still permit a reduction in present rates. The consumers who use current at a time when the city's consumption is the smallest are entitled to a low rate, according to the engineers, but the

"I had occasion at the parliament this afternoon to speak of the strong sympathy that had sprung up between the United States and Italy during the terrible years of the war, but perhaps here I can speak more intimately and say how sincerely the people of the United States had admired your own course and your own constant association with the armies of Italy, and the gracious and generous and serving association of her majesty the queen. Praises Italians in U. S. "It has been a matter of pride with us that so many Italians, so many men of Italian origin were in our own armies and associated with their brethren in Italy itself in the great enterprise of freedom. These are no small matters, and they complete that process of the welding .together of lhe sympathies of nations which has been going on so long between our peoples. "The Italians in the United States have excited a particular degree of admiration. They, I believe, are the only people of a given nationality who have been careful to organize themselves to see that their compatriots coming to America were from month to month and year to year guided to

places in industries most suitable to their previous habits. No other na-! tionality has taken such pains as that j and in serving their fellow countrymen ,'

they have served the United States, ', because these people have found places where they would be most use-!

ful and would most immediately earn their own living and add to the prosperity of the country itself. "In every way we have been happy in our association at home and abroad with the people of this great state. I was saying playfully to Premier Orlando and Baron Sonnino this afternoon that In trying to puj the people of the world under their proper sovereignties, we would not be willing to part with the Italians in the United States because we, too much value the contribution that they have made, not only to the industry of the United States, but to its thought and to many elements of its life. Honor Due Plain People. "This is, therefore, a very welcome occasion upon which to express a feeling that goes very deep. I was

touched the other day to have an Italian, a very plain man, say to me that

we had helped to feed Italy during

the war, and it went to my heart, be

cause we had been able to do so little. It was necessary, for us to use our ton

nage so exclusively for the handling

of troops and of the supplies that had to follow them from the United States, that we could not do half as much as it was our desire to do to supply grain to this country, or coal, or any of the supplies which it so much needed during the progress of the war. "And knowing as we did in this indirect way the needs of the country, you will not wonder that we were

moved by its steadfastness. My heart goes out to the little, poor families all over this great kingdom who stood the brunt and the strain of the war and gave their men gladly to make other men free and other women and other children free. These are the people and many like them to whom after all we owe the glory of this great achievement, and I want to join with you, for I am sure of joining

In the breeze, every window and balcony was fillea with eager watchers and the roofs were black with people. Even in the trees' and high on lamp posts there were men and women clinging to vantage points from which they might see the procession. The royal carriage on its way to the station was loudly cheered. Shout "Viva America.' At 10:30 there came the first distant shouts of "Viva America." which was taken up by the crowd along the thronged streets. Like a wave the crowds rose on tiptoe to catch a first glimpse of the president An engine whistle was heard In the distance and loud shouts broke forth, rising into a deafening rear as the presidential train rolled Into the station. Inside the station were the king and queen and all the members of the cabinet, headed by Premier Orlando and Foreign Minister Sonnino,
