Crop? of Over Billion Bushels

Seems rrobibte s r rom tie ports Oyer U,'S4' ' NEW YORK, Feb, JTA biUion, two hundred and fifty million bushels of wheat may be harvested thla year, and, f weather condition pro to b aa favorable aa they have bean 09 far this winter, tbe probability ta strong that the world' greatest fcarvest of wheat will be gathered. Already reports are coming to New

1! York from other parte ef the country I which tell of the early promlae of the

wneai narvesi, una tnese repone encouragement to all who bare been aaying that upon the harvests of this year will depend In great measure the continued prosperity of the country, 8ome of the leaders In the securltie market have been aaying, one to another, that the probability of great eropa will, without question, Inspire renewed and possibly very sreat tivity in the securities market. Favorable fteporte from Weat from Kansas come report that, always allowing for possible unfavorable weather conditions, the farmer will harvest thla year the largest crop of wheat ever garnered in tht state. In some part of th. south, where tha cultivation of wheat now is large,

apprehensions were felt early In the winter that, by reason of the peculiar

kind or winter weather, tne wneai mav was planted early in the winter or late In the fall might not mature tltC torily. r Thasa faars now seem to have been

ended. If the South doe well In the production of wheat a it did Ut year its harvest will serve greatly to supplement the wheat which i grown In the greater wheat belt of the

United States. - ; , JUDGE IS JAILED FOR REFUSAL TO PAY RAIL BONDS (By Associated Preas KANSAS CITY, Mo.. Feb. 17. The surrender of former Judge J. S. Evans to begin hi JU aentewe for contempt of federal court haa added another chapter to the tangled biatoir of the fight to compel a county in the Missouri hill to per bonded Indebtedness for a railroad never constructed. It was in H7i that Dallas county, wth other Missouri and Kansas communitles, saw visions of tremendous industrial development. Stranger p peared with a "pen and paper railroad from 6t. Louis to Fort Scott, Kan., and Dallas county voted $326,0Q0 bonds bonus to the promoters. - The road was never built, and Dal las county's "paramount Issue" was born when the first interest payment fell due. In all political campaigns, candidate for county judgeships have cried, "We will refuse to pay the bonds." After election successful candidates have gone to the bills to

avoid taking action. The bonds eventualJy went to an eastern capitalist who resumed the Jit. Uatlon of his predecessors to collect Interest Judgment had been entered into from time to time in federal court. By 1911 the principal and accrued interest had reached IJ.023.000, payment of which would take J cents on every dollar of valuation in the county, it was said. A judgment was obtained and tbe federal court directed the Dallas coun ty clerk to call a special election to vote bonds to pay $70,000 of the interest. With that action, the county clerkship was added to the list of recluse officialdom Of Dallas county, rffnrta to serve summons on the

jurists were redoubled. Posses of deputies from the United States Mar-

shars office in motor cars nmeu wuS tbe trails through hills and woods. nthjtM. dUfftilBed as fishermen and

hunter, trekked through thicket and along creeks without success. GVriarai Judas Van Valkenburgh is

sued an order of contempt against the three Dallas county Judge laat March. Judges Monroe Qulgley and J E. Thomas eought the safety of the woods. In the night, deputies surrounded Judge Evans' home and he waa brought Into Federal eourt where he r.fniflri ia atree to a bond levy and

was sentenced to six months in jail for

contempt. The Court or Appeals rer.ntiv affirmed the decision and the

judge, who bad been released pending iWiston. aoncared to begin serving

sentence. . . Judge Evans, who is now out of

office and therefore has no power to act, on the tax levy, was taken to Korlntfleld. Mo. Whether he must

nerve his sentence is still somewhat in doubt.

Meanwhile, Dallas county is without

a railroad.

Louisville, was near death from bidcoughs brought a flood of telegrams and letters containing-many strange remedies. The advice came from an

Patient given full glass of water taken slowly but continuously. Auditory canal JM naaaj peges are to be held thirty seconds after drinking water.

No mothers house Is cluttered uw" when Richmond hoys are at work in the public school worsbops, and small tooya do pot weep j affected tears when they pinch their! fingers before a "lot of other kids," the teaehers say. The teachers job, by the way, ia not an easy one, to be with 18 or 20 small boys. In a small work ehop where there Is plenty of opportunity for noise Is not tbe most soothing occupation in the world, and yet it is the teachers duty to remain calm, kmilinz and understanding, them-

is an inevitable and spienaia pari mi public school work in my opinion, said a Richmond teacher recently. "Boys can learn and desire to learn a hundred percent more when working with other boys, who also want to learn all there is to know about a particular work'of the working world, "What is produced In the public schools is of a higher quality than can be produced In a one-boy shop, for the freedom ef public education, and association with other boys who are perhaps more energetic workers have a subtile and unexplainable influence. Many an unpromising youth ha been made a success in this way."

Brown, of the drawing department Philip Molter is vocational director of the work there and in the high school. The aim of the Garfield courses is not to start the pupil In his vocational straight and narrow

path, but rather to show him the broad i

one of world s work- jms oe is also carried on throughout the high school, with real specialization done s arule only" in the pupil's senior year. Some splendid wood work has been turned out of Garfield, and though the classes have only been held in the new annex a little over week the teachers believe that the belter accommodations and larger working space should greatly increase the quality and amount of work which can be done in all departments. Electrical construction is now taken up in Garfield school and great interest and enthusiasm is being shown in this line of work. The printing department is very superior, and the- other departments of the school have been praised for their efficiency.

''We attempt to develop our boy along general and interesting Jines of work until their senior year Wbn more specialization is allowedThey ar then given opportunity to extend their work in some special direction, and along some branches which particularly appeal to them." . At present one boy is making a chiffonier, another a phonograph, and several table are In the formative stage. -These articles are being well done, and the teachers say the boys take a tremendous interest in their work. , The pattern making department is used in co-operation with the other departments as much as possible. Usually the same boys take pattern making and some other industrial line at the same time. In this way a pupil can make his own. pattern In one room which be will use to manufacture the article Itself . In another class. Play ground equipment, and article for the school buildings of the city are made in the high school industrial classes. v Every high school boy taking this

work is also taught blue print reading j

The teaehers in these departments of. the high school are Charles O. May. Elbert Vickery, W. B. Ward and Harry JF, Ross, who has charge of the printing work. ' Although not a part of the public school ytem of Richmond, a good course in vocational wood work and relative subjects is given at Earlham college. The work is under the supervision of Professor Edwin Morrison, of - the Earlham faculty, - and about twenty men are enrolled this sem

ester., i . ' Automobile mechanics, and telegraphy are being .offered for the first time in Earlham this year, and are proving very successful courses according to Professor Morrison. The former courses of vocational woodwook offered are: bench work in wood ; wpod turning and pattern making, and mechanical manipulation ambodying work in Iron, chemical and physical procssse. ; Elementary photography and lantern slide work is also given at Earlham, and included in the metal work is brass blowing and cutting, roblem work in furniture making and house planning is a phase of the work offered. The course has been somewhat broadened this semester as new men wished to specialize in the work. The more scientific students, those inter, ested in agriculture or engineering, are more interested ia the vocational work, the instructor says.

League Covenant Simple As Parable, Says Daniels

NEW YORK. Feb. 17, The covenant of the league of nations, read at the peace conference on Friday by President Wilson, "Is almost as simpie as one of the parables of Jesus, and almost as illuminatlnng and uplifting," declared Secretary of the Navy Daniels, in addressing a Methodist Episcopal conference here last night, "Yesterday was a golden day in th history of the world," he said. "Fourteen nations, representing 1,200,000,000 people, unanimously agreed upon a document which makes the Magna Charter and Declaration of Lndependence mere forerunners of an immortal instrument that blesses all tbe world for all generations.

"It Is a time for church bells to; peal. If this consul-nation of a world peace league had failed tbe war would i have been fought in vain and the lives 1 given would - not have won a glory i

that can never fade. TO'icbing on bolshevlsm, Secretary Daniels declared there are enough jails in America to accommodate all desiring to bring about chaos.
