The Own a Home Movement Richmond is among the cities that is fostering a "Own A Home" movement. Encouragement should be given this project, for home owners usually are ideal citizens. The home links the citizen with the welfare of the community and makes him doubly interested in all public affairs. The home owner strives for the welfare of his city, state and nation. Men and women who reside in their own homes are not going to pay much attention to the long haired soap box. orator who is trying to plunge the country into bolshevism and to make out of the United States a second Russia. Wherever you find a city full cf home owners, you are sure to find progress and conditions that approach the ideal in civic affairs. "Make it easy for the young man to have his own home," says the Chicago Tribune, "and he becomes an important cog in the national machine. He makes it his business to see that candidates are fit before election and not unfit afterwards. He takes an interest in industry and does riot crave more than there is to be had. He finds a relationship to the schools and seeks the betterment of his neighborhood. " 'Own your home' is a strong American slogan. It ought to be taken up in every township in the United States. Farms ought to be owned by the men who work them ; houses by those that live in them. If every man owns a home there'll be no place left for the soap box. "Industrial leaders ought to find a quick interest in the 'Own Your Home' campaign. It is to the interest of the employer that his employe becomes a fixed and dependable aid. The day of

shifting labor is done. Unions have stabilized it. Men will become more stable. They will require the foundations of life. The home is the anchor. Own it." Men in all walks of life are beginning to realize that America needs m&re home owners who look upon their homes as did the old Anglo-Saxons, namely, as their castles. Our forefathers believed in the home and many of the civil liberties for which the Anglo-Saxons fought had to do with the protection of their homes against seizure, search and intrusion by the tyrants. This love for the home has persisted in the race to this day. The "Own a Home Movement" is a powerful stimulus toward strengthening this feeling. " Old Memories The interest which young and old readers are showing in the short articles pertaining to the organization of Richmond institutions and to events in our early history indicates that the love of old memories is not dead in our hearts. Wayne county and Richmond are rich in historical matter and folk lore and in not a few incidents of state and national significance. An old family album containing photographs of persons long since dead has an enduring charm for

the later generations. And so also has a recital of events that transpired twenty-five and fifty years ago. Good citizens never tire of reading about affairs that shaped public opinion and were formative of institutions and organizations. This community just now is in a transition period. The men and women who were active in the Civil War days and in the founding of the industrial and commercial strength of our city are rapidly being called into the beyond. They are the only ones who have a first hand knowledge of many events that took place years ago, and the only way these memories can be handed down to posterity, so that they may be incorporated in the historical archives of the county, is by their publication through the public press. For that reason the Palladium is very anxious to obtain contributions from these old men and women on any of the many incidents of which this generation knows nothing or has only a fragmentary and very hazy knowledge. If our old readers will find time to write short articles about these affairs, the Palladium will deem it a privilege to print them, so that they will become

accessible to the public generally. A number of contributions of this kind have been received and have provoked great interest among the readers. The Palladium hopes that this appeal for contributions on the early history of Richmond, its many interesting personages, the founding of its churches, schools, factories, business houses and enterprises, whether they are still extant or out of existence, will be heeded. No incident, no matter how insignificant or small, will be overlooked. The old citizens of the community are the last link between Richmond of today and Richmond of the Civil war period.

Why and How Garden Should be Cultivated

Most people have an idea that gardens are cultivated solely for the purpose of killing weeds. As a matter of fact, the killing of weeds is just one object of garden cultivation, say the specialists of the United States De-

ui .Agriculture. ine roots j of plants require air Just the stame t Afl ?r f Via fnna onrl 1 1 f Via rrs-vn n A in

packed or hard or is sunbaked over the surface after a beating rain, the roots of the plants cannot get air, and for that reason the plants will turn yellow, and If not cared for will die; the same thing is true where the land is poorly drained and waterlogged. The water keeps out the air and the roots cannot feed the plants. Cultivation has another object, in that it breaks up the soil particles and makes plant food available for the feeding rootlets of the plants. Many persons, however, make the mistake of cultivating too deeply, and by so doing cut off or injure the feeding rootlets and deprive the plant of its source of nourishment and support Frequent shallow cultivation during dry weather results in the formation of a layer of fine dust which serves as a mulch or blanket to retain moisture. Cultivation After Rains. The soil should always be cultivated just as soon as it is sufficiently dry to

do sareiy worked after heavy rains, j If it is not cultivated, a crust forms, the surface bakes and the crons are

injured. The same will apply where irrigation is used, and it has been found best to give the soil a thorough soaking, then cultivate as soon as it is dry enough,- and apply no more waer until absolutely necessary. The hoe and the steel rake are the most Important tools for cultivating the small garden. On a larger scale a wheel hoe and a horse cultivator may be used to advantage. Even where horse-drawn tools are occasionally used, the greater part of the work especially during drv wpathur maw ho

i performed by means of a common steel rake. It is not necesssrv tn sm

In the larger home gardens a wheel hoe can be used to advantage. inches long, with one end whittled down to form a handle and the opposite end provided with three No. 6 or No. 8 box nails or wire brads. This little home-made implement can be used very soon after a rain to loosen the surface, so that any small seeds can break through. The wheel-hoe outfits are provided with a number of different shovels and scratchers adapted for the different types of work to be performed. These implements have the advantage that one can go over the garden very rapidly and break up the surface of the soil in a comparatively short time. It is generally necessary, however, to follow with the hoe to remove any weeds that have not ben destroyed by the wheel cultivator. Kill Weeds Young. It should be borne in mind that the time to kill weeds is when they are just coming through the ground. If allowed to become established, it is much more difficult to get rid of them than if they are taken In time. If the top two inches of soil is kept continuously and thoroughly loosened, no serious difficulty in keeping out weeds is probable.

TRAVELING IN ETERNITY . This very minute Eternity Is! It's a happy thing to be a part of Eternity. Because In the terms of Eternity you are me and we are each atoms of the whole. The crowd is what we are. The crowd doesn't pay much attention to any one of us simply because It's the crowd that's all. But It has a whole feeling about itself that is as individual as anything that any of us has. And we trot with it, because we have the one great thing in common thrME that Is in all of us. So it is that we are very happy traveling In Eternity. I like to say things that help you. I like to "go out of the way" to teach you something that I have learned that I think will help you. And I like to have you tell me something that you have learned that will stir my soul. Humanity has a feeling heart. The world is bound to right Itself tho its chaos at times may bring fear and trembling. For we are traveling in Eternity. The philosophy of "The Good Samaritan- is the philosophy of the world. .

At the Rope's End

From the Washington Post THE United States Supreme Court having denied the petition for a rehearing of the case of Eugene Debs, convicted and sentenced to ten years' imprisonment for violations of the espionage act, Debs has run the length of his tether, and nothing Is left to him except to begin serving his term in Leavenworth. The judgment of the Supreme Court, affirming the decree of the lower court, was entered on March 10, and under the procedure the mandate of the court goes forward in 30 days after the judgment is entered. Thus in a few days the mandate will be received in Ohio and Debs taken into custody. Nothing has occurred since the beginning of the war which ' has contributed so materially to the vindication of law in the United States as the trial and conviction of Debs. He Is recognized as the leader of the disruptive element in this country, a socialist by label, but an anarchist in reality. Lenine has been quoted as saying that in Debs lies the hope for bolshevism in America. Debs was convicted of obstructing and attempting to obstruct the army draft, the case being founded upon a rpeech he delivered at Canton, Ohio. In discussing the trial, the Supreme Court said: The defendant addressed the Jury himself, and while contending that his speech" did not warrant the charges he said: "I have been accused of obstructing the war. I admit it, gentleiren. I abhor war. I would oppose the war if I stood alone' This statement was not necessary to warrant the jury in finding that one purpose of the speech, whether Incidental or not does not matter, was to oppose not only war in general but thi war, and that the opposition was so expressed that its natural and intended effect would be to obstruct recruiting. When informed that he had lost his case before the Supreme Court, Debs referred contemptuously to the judges as "bewigged old fossils", an attitude toward the,

judiciary in keeping with that which he has expressed in his public addresses before and since his trial. It appeared from his manner that he was quite willing to assume the role of martyr before the radical element of this country and pose as a sacrifice upon the altar of "capitalism." During the period that his appeal for a rehearing

was pending before the Supreme Court Debs has been

making speeches in which he was even more rabid, if possible, in his attacks upon the American government and its instrumentalities. His meetings have stirred up a deep feeling of resentment among the patriotic citizens in the communities he has visited, and his colleagues and disciples have urged the proletariat to rise and prevent his imprisonment. One speaker is quoted as saying, "If you allow that man to go to Jail, his blood will be upon your hands," and others have predicted that coincidentnlly with his imprisonment the revolution will break in this country. The spectacle of these traitors spreading their poison unhindered has been abhorrent to the patriotism of the nation, and the mandate of the court, clapping Debs behind the bars, has been awaited impatiently. In Debs and Victor Berger the law has taken hold of the two big ringleaders of the anarchistic element in the United States, which rebels against the legal authority of the government In their cases the supremacy of the government has been vindicated. But it is unfortunate hat there is no law under which their sympathizers and followers can be restrained from wrapping about these convicted criminals the mantle of martyrdom and thusj emulating the very offenses for which they were convicted. In what respect are these convicts worse than

those who publicly praise them and their deeds and urge

their followers to rise in defiance of law and rescue them from punishment? The cleaning-up process is well under way, but it should be prosecuted with even greater vigor. Congress should provide additional means to curb the public enemy. There should be no human being in America who dares to deny the supremacy of the law. .'-

When was First Warranty Deed Drawn Here?

Good Evening! By ROY K. MOULTON

One hundred and eight years ago this spring, the first warranty deed was entered upon the books of "Wayne County, Indiana Territory." The date is March 12, 1811. The deed was for 201 acres of the choicest Wayne county land, and the consideration was $726. The seal on the deed was made by the simple trick of drawing an irregular circle with the pen and writing the word "Seal" inside. The paper was ordinary writing paper, thin but of fine quality. - The 201 acres were transferred from John Townsend and Eliza Townsend to Samuel Woods. The wife could not w rite and signed the deed with a cross for her mark. "Indiana Territory, Wayne County: Know all men by these presents that we. John Townsend and wife, of the county and territory aforesaid, for and in consideration of the sum of $762 to us in hand paid by Samuel Woodz, have bargained, granted, and released and by these presents do grant, bargain, sell and release, to the same Samuel Woods, all that plantation and tract of land situate in the county aforesaid on the waters of Whitewater, in range the second, west of a meridian drawn from the mouth of the Great Miami, township the thirteenth, section the first, and southwest part of said section, containing 200 and one acres being part of a tract beginning nine chains or link3. " so runs the phraseology of the old deed.

ASSERTS RHEUMATIC IMPURITIES CANT STAY IN BODY

When My Prescription Goes in, Rheumatism Goes Out Along with All Poisonous Uric Acid, Says Discoverer James H. Allen

"oa'tse hp was crippled with terrible rheumatism and unable to work, and because doctors failed to help him, Mr. James II. Allen of Rochester decided to help himself. Persistent study, ceaseless patience and frequent experiments convinced him that before anyone could be free from rheumatism the poisons and impurities often called uric acid deposits, must be dissolved In the joints, . ligaments and muscles and expelled from the system. It took some years to get this idea Into the form of a prescription, but perseverance finally conquered and In a very short period every pain and twinge and trace of rheumatism was forced to flee and Mr. Allen turned himself from a rheumatic wreck into a strong:, healthy, robust man. So pleased was he with his success that he named this wonderful medicine Allenrhu. Many others cursed with the agrony of rheumatism tried it with results that were almost magical. Requests for Allenrhu became so numerous that a decision was reached to let sufferers know of the discovery through the newspapers and now druggists throughout the country dispense the Allenrhu prescription, or can get it for you on short notice.
