WHERE IS $9,000? NOW IS QUESTION OF PREBLE BOARD EATON. O., Nov. 15 Preble county's advisory health board has approved a budget calling for $9,000 with which to operate the aew county health board the first yearMinder the new health board law. , Although the budget was approved, the board admits that at this time It Is at sea as to the source from which the $9,000 la to come. The combined tax levy for health purposes in the entire county for next year is approximately 5700, according to the figures obtained In the office of County Auditor, Spencer C, Hunt. The levies for health purposes are confined to the municipalities of the county, there being no county or township levies, except a county levy for support of the Montgomery-preble county, Joint tuberculosis hospital in Montgomery county. Of the 12 municipalities in the county, Eaton has the biggest tax rate and biggest valuation for health purposes. Eaton's health fund next year will have $220 to expend. The municipalities of Camden and New Paris have no levy for health purpo-1 ses. in face of these facts, as supported by figures, it is generally conceded that it will require a bit of high financing to squeeze $9,000 out of a fund of $700. The advisory board has selected O. M. Campbell, of Lanier township, as v -secretary, following the resigna tion of Mayor Edwin H. Young, of i Dr S P Carter of West is expected to succeed Dr. New Paris. H. Z. Silver, of Eaton, as a member of the board, as members say Dr Silver has declined to serve on the board because of the demand made upon his time by his practice. Contests Election. H. G. Eunn, of Lanier township, has taken action to contest the election of members of the board of education of Lanier township at the late election, he being defeated for member of the board. Bunn has obtained a court order for temporary Injunction, which enjoina the board from canvassing the vote and declaring the result of election of members of the board. The order was issued Friday by Probate Judge A. D. Davis, in the absence of Common Pleas Judge A. C. Risinger. Eunn bases his complaint upon the fact that his name appeared upon the ballot as "H. G. Bums", to which error he attributes his defeat. Hugh R. Gilmore, local attorney, filed Bunn's petition in common pleas court. Dainwood to Pen. John Dainwood, of Franklin, Tenn.,

Intention of issuing $42,000 worth of bonds for bridge and ditch purposes in Preble county, has been an nounced by the county commissioners, j under the clarified ditch laws of the state it is the intention to issue $20,000 worth of bonds for ditch to be 5 per cent. The resolution providing for the issuo declares there is not sufficient money in the general county ditch fund to pay the expense of the McCray joint county ditch and other county ditches. The bond issue for bridge purposes is to be $22,000, with a 5 per cent interest rate. Resolution providing for the issue declares three county bridges have been condemned by the county commissioners for public travel, "because of excessive travel and excessive load3 they have been subjected to." Location of the condemned bridges is described as follows: Bridge over Sevenmile creek, Camden-Somerville road, Somers township; bridge over Twin creek.

H You Haven't Done So, Is Advice It is more than usually important to select seed corn early this year, because of the wet weather, which is preventing corn from drying, said a local farm expert, Saturday. A moisture test, given by the county agent of Rush county a few days ago, showed 21 per cer.t of moisture in corn that was better than the average It has been found that if corn freezes when there is more than 18 per cent of moisture, the germination will be seriously affected. Seed corn, therefore, should be selected as soon as possible, and hanging it whe'-e it will dry as rapidly as possible. A rack in a garret is ideal or lath racks in a furnace loom, whcre a good circulation of air is obtained Freezing will not hurt dry seed corn. Temperature above 90 will hurt corn, and air is essential.

REFINERS FREE; RETAILERS ARE NOT; SUGAR TANGLED By WILLIAM R. SANBORN. Lacking the gift cf prophecy we shall not attempt to tell yon what may happen to the family rogar bowl, pending some ruling nationally affecting the price of sugar. We are now informed that while the Jobbers' profits are still limited to of a cent, and the retailer's to 1 cents, the basic prlca to be charged by refiners haa no limit. AH restrictions are off. For the present at least, the refiner is working in an open mariet He may tray wherever be can find raw sugar on sale, then refine it and charge his own price, just as in pre-war days This, as near as we can learn, is the status of the eastern refiner, at the moment; bnt a new ruling may change conditions any day. We are frank to admit that there ehonld bo no radical advance as long as the government can control or does control the price of Cuban raws, still sellIns at $7.28 per ICO pounds, for 96 degrees centrifugals. This price has ruled for quite a long time and is the base upon which refiners have been working, according to the sugar allotted to them by the sugar board. Wholesales 22c per Pound. Pending some settlement by the government, and unless that comes Quickly, sugars win rule higher- If placed on a competitive basis today, in view of the shortage, we would most likely seo 20 cent sugar, and many would cheerfully pay that price, rather than shut down their plants, and to have their employes scattered. Aa a matter of fact, sugar has sold as high aa 22 cents per pourd in car lots in New Orleans, withiu a few days, according to the New York Journal of Commerce. Listen to this, good people: "A New Orleans report mailed last Friday says: "The sugar market was more active and indications that considerable sugar will be here in a few days were I reported. Receipts of sugar from ' Louisiana were 797 barrels and sales ! amounted to 701 barrels. Of this 97 barrels was prime yellow clarified, which was sold at 20 cents per pound. It was not quoted officially because under 100 barrels is not quoted under the rules. Plantation granulated sold at 20 cents a pound, a drop of 2 c from the last sale." The official quotations to which tie writer refers are made by the New Orleans Sugar and Rico Exchange, and it will be noted that the granulated quoted at 20 cents a pound showed "a drop of 2 cents from the last quotation." The buyer of that sugar no dcubt sold it at his own price, and probably at a good profit, at wholesale. Just what the consumer paid for it would be interesting to know. In the meanwhile We had supposed that the sugar control board was doing business for all America. Why not? And this view is further endorsed by this fact, another surprise as you will admit. It is reported from Washington that as the result of a conference of Louisiana planters with Attorney-General Palmer that the latter has approved the price of "Seventeen cents for prime yellow clarified, and 18 cents for plantation granulated, both f. o. b. plantation, as maximum prices." Just how much below the "maxi mum" the planters and New Orleans Jobbers will sell these sucars depends ...pen the competition in their own terj ritory, first cf all, and next upon how S greatly they love their fellow man. New Orleans refines sugar all the year, and nearly 20,000,000 pounds of raw sugar has been tied up at the wharf because of the longshoremen's strike. We do not think these refiners work under any scale or ruling that does not also apply to all cane sugar IAD BREATH Dr. Edwards' Olive Tablets Get at the Cause and Remove It 'Dr. Edwards Olive Tablets, tha substitute for calomel, act gently on the bowels and positively do the work.

refiners. You very likely noted that the ruling above cited related strictly to "plantation sugars," aa made by sugar mills in the country districts, owned principally by the planters of the cane. Ae to Beet Sugar. -Beet sugar is costing Richmond Jobbers 10 cants plus 41.9 per 100 lbs. for freight A lot ot the sugar sold here lately was refined at Decatur. Indians. This charge is the universal charge in this district, the wholesaler in Decatur paying the freight, though he haul 3 the sugar from the plant on his own trucks. This is a protection for every jobber in his own natural territory, and one of the good features of the present regulation. A. A. Sprague. head of the Chicago fair price committee is quoted by Tha Chicago Tribune as follows: "It is fair to say that since the opening of the beet sugar refining season results of the refiners operations have demonstrated that 10 cents In some sections is not a fair price to them, and with this fact demonstrated, attempts are being made by conferences of the department of Justice and the beet sugar refiners to establish definitely a fair price for all concerned, which, when made, will be rigidly enforced over the entire country." Present Market Conditions. Mr. Sprague 'a conclusions are comforting to the West, for be it known that no eastern cane sugar will be permitted west of Pittsburgh until after January 1. But Mr. Sprague also says: "This makes the situation such that at the present time no fair price can be made either for the Jobber or the retailer. However, the margin of profit that may be added as a maximum still remains cent per pound for Jobber and 1 cents per pound for retailer, and all Jobbers and retailers will be called upon to justify their prices on this basis." This Interview leads The Tribune to consider all strings off, at least so far as beet refiners are concerned, and to headline its report: "Sky the Limit on Sugar by Surprise Edict." The conclusion must be drawn that we are in for an Immediate advance in sugar prices, but not necessarily a very great one. A lot of sugar was received in Richmond on Friday, not enough to glut the market, simply to relieve it from famine conditions. Higher Prices Expected. As eastern cane sugars will not be admitted to this section for some weeks, and being dependent entirely on the beet product, the central-west ia already paying more for sugar than is allowable in the east. Some New Orleans "plantation' sugar has already reached Chicago, but at outside prico3. Beet sugar men are no longer limited as to territory; they can ship anywhere, and this would have a tendency to keep prices down in the southern markets, but for the scarcity. Eastern granulated ia, however, still regulated by zones and the prices charged have been fixed by the government's fixed cost on the raw product, or by the prices paid for cargoes in control of the sugar board. Just what will happen after January 1 in this regard cannot be stated, though it is most likely that sugar control

At the moment it would cost Brazil 14e to -16o a pound to lay sugar down, daty paid, at New York. Attorney General Palmer is anxious to keep sugar prices at as low a level as will provide a living profit to cane and beet sugar growers and to refiners. This seems to bo the general impression, and in accordance with prices now ruling. It is most likely, however, that the conference now in session will allow beet refiners a little more latitude, and it is possible, also that zonal rates will apply, according to the character of the sugar conten of the beet crops.
