PREBLE GRANGE, FARM BUREAU, TO HOLD EM PICNIC Farmer's Organizations Affiliate for Annual Event in August Many Boys Home. EATON, O., July 18 Members of the farm bureau of Preble county, and members of the granges of the county, will Join in the annual picnic of the farm bureau, which will be held In August, very likely on the county fairgrounds here. As the two organizations are confined to farmers and farm interests and their work Is very similar, arrangements have been made whereby the two bodies will participate in the annual picnic. Harry Bragg, of New Paris, county deputy grange master, will take an active part in arranging for the picnic. He will make an effort to have State Orange Master Taber here and make an address. Deputy Bragg states that the grange movement in the county Is taking on momentum and that the county grange Is In a flourishing condition. He sayB the organization has a membership of more than one thousand. Speaking of the classification of property for taxation, Deputy Bragg declared the county grange is opposed

to it and that every effort will be put forth by the organization to defeat it. Concerning the movement now on

for farmers' co-operative grain eleva

tors in the county Bragg said It was practically certain the farmers of Jefferson township would establish an elevator at New Paris soon. Soldiers Fair Guests EATON, O., July 18. Upon proper identification, soldiers of all wars will be admitted free this year to the Preble county fair, which will be held the last two days in September and the first three days in October. The soldier-guest feature was adopted by the fair board in a recent meeting. Earl Swepson, of Chilllcothe, has been engaged to officiate as starting judge of the races. He has officiated in the Bame capacity here the last several years. It is probable a band to furnish music during the fair will be selected at the next meeting of the board. Several bands in the county have filed bids with the board for the contract to furnish the music. Soldiers At Home Andrew Whitesell has arrived at Charleston, W. Va., after a year, or more service overseas, according to advices received here by his parents Mr. and Mrs. Robert H. Whitesell. He Is expected to reach home within the next few days. Charles B. Unger has been advised of the safe arrival of his son, Nixon Unger, from overseas. He served with a hospital unit. John Bloom, Eaton boy, is at the home of his parents at Brookville, O., following his arrival from overseas. He is expected in Eaton soon. He is a brother of C. S. Bloom, of this city. Edward C. Neal, of Columbus, former Eaton boy, has arrived from France, and is at Camp Merritt, according to information received here by his aunt, Mrs. R. J. Cottingham.

Don't Waste Time, Money and Energy Uselessly Remodeling Old Material

STATE'S CROP YIELD RESPONDED TO WAR NEED, REPORT SHOWS INDIANAPOLIS, Ind.. July 18 J. W. Oliver, director of the Indiana Historical Commission, has received the report of the Indiana committee on food production covering the years 1917-1918, from Walter Q. Fitch, secretary. The report states that as a result of the state-wide campaign for increased production of corn in 1917, an area of 5,600,000 acres was planted in Indiana, 600,000 acres in excess of the 1916 crop. The yield was 203,000,000 bushels, as compared to 172,658,000 bushels for 1916. Wheat Increase

During 1917 an area of 2,500,000 acres of wheat was planted in the

state, as compared to 2,116,000 in 1916

As a result of the campaign for even more intensive production in 1918, an

area of 3,000,000 acres was planted. The campaign for home and vacant lot gardens resulted in 500,000 gardens

being established in the state in 1917. This number represented an increase

of 100 per cent over the previous sea

son. In 1918, 640,000 gardens were

tilled in the state. About 100,000 acres were devoted to growing vegetables for home consumption.

The golden wedding anlversary of Mr. and Mrs. William F. Holman and the 87th birthday of Mr. Holman were celebrated in the home where the couple has resided for 48 years, ever since coming to America from Germany.

"It's all very well," said Mrs. Con-' nor, "to talk about making over clothes, but I haven't found that it pays at all." As Mrs. Stanton leaned forward to answer, the other women of the club leaned back comfortably in their rocking chairs to enjoy more fully this discussion on clothes, the subject so dear to every feminine heart. "You and I surely have had different results, then. Everything I am wearing today has been made over, or at least changed In some way from Its original style, and I am sure this suit and blouse are wearing as well as any I might have bought this spring," Mrs. Stanton answered. "What makes the difference? Your clothes look wonderfully well and those which I have remodeled have that rather forlorn, made-over look at first and show worn places and holes before I have worn them more than a month or so." "Perhaps it 13 because, while I buy fewer clothes than you, I get better material In the first place and always take better care of them than you do. You know you are always looking for bargains and argue that buying cheap tilings does away with the necessity of brushing, cleaning regularly, and hanging up your clothes carefully, as I do mine. "I remember, when I bought this suit, there was another one which I liked almost as well for less money but, since I realized the material in it would look shabby by the end of one year's service, I decided on this one.

1 woie this one quite steadily for two years and then remade it this spring. It can easily be worn another yjar. In the meantime, I have enjoyed wearing the suit because I have always felt well-dressed and comfortable when I had it on. The happy combination of good material and good workmanship showed in it and I have been contented to get along without some other clothes I might otherwise have been inveigled into buying." "Well, perhaps that is true of your suit, but I doubt whether you have better material in that blouse you have on than there was in the one I attempted to dye. It was mustard colored, done in that gay embroidery such as everyone was wearing a year ago. I was tired and sick of it, though it was not in the least shabby.

so I thought I'd color it. As soon as I put it in water, all the different colors used in the embroidery started running and the result is a smeared rainbow effect. "That brings up a point I Intended

to mention. We, with limited clothes allowances, can't afford to buy clothes that are in good style, perhaps, but extreme. Startling colors and extreme fashions are not allowed in my wardrobe, for they are always expensive and seldom remain in good taste for any length of time. "In the library the other day, I found a leaflet, I'm sure you would like," Bhe added, turning to the group as a whole, "for every word in it Is valuable. One thing, I remember, was to remodel only when the material has enough wear in it to warrant the neccessary work and cost of new material. The librarian told me we could get copies from the home demonstration agent. I would suggest that we get copies for discussion at some future meeting and have the demonstrator talk to us about it." These women are not more interested in clothes and how to get value received from them than thousands of others are. All will want the leaflet,

"Wise Spending Saves Clothing for the Family," together with the other

thrift leaflets which the United States Department of Agriculture will send

free on request. They will help you

solve many questions.

To keep the face sirfott, Trrte and beautiful all summer, there's nothing quite so good as ordinary mercolized wax. Discolored or freckled skin, so common at this season, is gently, gradually absorbed by the wax and replaced by the newer, fresher skin beneath. The face exhibits no trace of the wax, which is applied at bedtime and washed off mornings. Greasy creams, powders and rouges, on the other hand, are apt to appear more conspicuous than usual these days of excessive perspiration. Just get an ounce of mercolized wax at any drugstore and use it like cold cream. This will help any skin at once and in a week or so the complexion will look remarkably clear, young and healthy.

You Will Never Be Cured by Local Treatment with Sprays. Catarrh Is a condition of the blood and can not be cured by local applications of sprays and douches; this has been proven by the thousands who have vainly resorted to this method of treatment. Catarrh should not be neglected or experimented with. The wrong treatment is valuable time lost, during which the disease is getting a firmer hold upon its victim, and making it more difficult for even the proper treatment to accomplish results. Though Catarrh makes its first appearance In the nostrils, throat and air passages, the disease becomes

more and more aggravated and final-

Merchant Financial Wreck "I am a financial wreck because of , the expense of doctors and medicine for my wife. She has been a chronic sufferer for 10 years. Some pronounced it gall stones, some gastritis and some intestinal inflammation. I happened to read an ad of Mayr's Wonderful Remedy and from the first dose my wife has steadily improved." It Is a simple, harmless preparation that removes the catarrhal mucus from the Intestinal tract and allays the inflammation which causes practically all stomach, liver and intestinal ailments, including appendicitis.

Thus Catarrh may be the forerunner of that most dreaded and hopeless of all diseases, consumption. No local treatment affords permanent relief. Experience has taught that S. S.
