LIVESTOCK MARKET

IYILUf WLAIVj rUDLIU SHOULD GET BENEFIT

BY WILLIAM R. SANBORN If the consuming public is to receive the benefit of the break in hogs and cattle last week, it will be able to buy meats at lower tost during the next few days. With the exception of lambs all live stock prices have been demoralized for days, because there was so small an outlet to the east for either cattle, hogs or dressed meats, resulting from strike conditions and embargoes. At Indianapolis, heavy hogs made a top of $17.50 last Monday, against a top of $14.50 Saturday, the bulk going for a little less. Mixed hogs also sold up to $17.50 last Monday, but made a top of only $15 on Saturday, at which time light fancier, which brought as high as $17.60 on Tuesday, reached but $15.50. There were 9,500 hogs at Indianapolis

Wednesday with an outlet east for but six cars. Thi3 resulted In a drop of

50 cents to $1 for the day. Western Markets Demoralized

Chicago made a top of $1G.95 on last Monday, which was the high for the second time since last October. On . the same day lambs sold up to $21.75 for top, within 35 cents of the record in that market. Indianapolis also sold lambs at high water prices on Mon- " day, and a few hogs went over the scales there at $17.75. Monday was also the high day at Buffalo, at $19, and at Pittsburgh at $19.50 for top. They had 42,000 hogs at Chicago Thursday, which forced a decline of 40 to 70 cents, the general average price, $15.10. being 55 cents under that qf Wednesday. This $15.10 average Should be compared with that of $20.91 on the same date in 1919, at Chicago, to give a correct idea of the shock farmers have hadwith prices of feed as high, or even higher than in April of last year. At the same time cattle were off from $2 to $2.75 from the high of the previous week, receipts being liberal in spite of telegrams warning shippers to hold off. Many Iiors were held off the Chicago market Saturday at shippers' request, at which time hogs weighing 250 pounds up sold at from $13.25 to S14.25 during the session. The Chicago top on Saturday was $15.25 or $1.70 below that scored on Mondav. Calves

sold $2.50 lower, compared with prices obtained during the previous week. Grain Markets Excited Export purchases of wheat and rye by pastern shippers were very large last, week, mostly for France and Great. Britain. Wheat seems to be getting into a stronger position, and it is likely the grain corporation will find an outlet for all its wheat.

May corn closed on

$1.67'i at Chicago, against a top of $1.7:; '4 during the week. May oats made a record high last week, cash oats selling at $1.07 for top. May oats made a top of 97 last week agsiinst 73 cents in same week last yea r.

The Farm and the Farmer BY WILLIAM R. SANBORN

There are new seven kinds of clubs in which the boys and girls of Union

county are enlisted, and the numbers j

enrolled are greater tnan in any iormer year. Parents are encouraging this club work. Harry Ardery has been chosen club leader for this year, and Miss Osa Duvall will have charge of all the girls in club work. 36 of whom are in the sewing classes. Thirteen boys are enrolled in the purebred Short Horn calf club and 18 in the pure bred pig club, and 10 in the one acre corn contest. The enrollment in these clubs is now complete. The work is all under the direct supervision of County Agent M. A. Nye. "I have a Kentuckian on the farm this year, who says we have first class

tobacco land and we are going to take a chance on all the tobacco we can take care of," said W. A. Fosdick "Some others near me will also tryout a little BurTey, but no cigar leaf will be put in."

Mr. Fosdick says that he has 90 acres of the best-looking wheat he has seen this spring and is to plant 70 acres of corn, a cut of 20 acres from last year, so as to get back to his proper rotation. No oats will be grown on the Fosdick place, nor was any sown in 1919. Several Wayne county formers are becoming interested in soy bean culture, but seed is rather scarce and high. Theodore Davis said that he had had a satisfactory crop on 20 acres and that with an attachment to a corn planter one bushel of seed will plant an acre.

William Holzapfel, 4th Of Family To Go in Eight Months, Dies at Chicago Word has been received here of the uudden death of William Holzapfel, 61 years old. of Chicago, brother of the late Henry Holzapfel of this city. He

is one of four in the family who have.

died within the last 18 months. A

sister died last August, the mother

four weeks later and the death of Henry Holzapfel occurred seven months ago. Relatives left Sunday night for Chicago to arrange for the shipment of the body to Greenville, O., his former home. Funeral services will be held there Wednesday afternoon, at the home of his brother, Louis Holzapfel. Six children, all of Dayton and two brothers, Louis of Greenville and Samuel of Chicago, survive.

CAMP FIRE GIRLS TO GIVE INDIAN PROGRAM APRIL 30

Lewis Hinshaw reports an increase of 32 lambs from 22 ewes, a very fair "record. He says that the outlook for

hog prices was so discouraging last fall that he wintered but seven brood sows and from these he has saved a total of 35 pigs. Wayne county will not be represented at Purdue in May by local pig and corn club contestants. There were no boys' and girls' clubs in the county last year, there being no county agent here to encourage and supervise the work.

Following is the program to be given by the Tatohekiya Camp Fire girls Friday, April 30, at 7:30 p. m., in the high school auditorium. The public is invited: 1 "The Life of the Corn," an Indian drama in five dances. 2 Group of Camp Fire Songs

(a) "Mammy's Moon" (b) "Burn, Fire, Burn" (c) "Bugga Man" 3 Burlesque Indian Drill with selected orchestra. 4 Indian Songs (Cadman), Mrs. Fred Bartel." 5 Solo, Indian Dance, Miss Lucille Spears. 6 Indian Flute Call and Love Song, Mrs. Charles Logan. 7 "The Calling of the Flowers," an Indian drama in one continuous dance.

TIE name of General Degouette has a special significance to some thousands of American veterans of the World war, and his recent exploit in occupying the Ruhr basin at the head of French troops recalls to them the

closing campaign of the great conflict. Degouette commanded the Sixth French army, of which the Thirty-

'and the 145th infantry was the unit that maintained its position on the opposite bank of the Escaut despite terrific counter attacks. That was the exploit that won Degouette's admiration and resulted in publication, Dec. 11, 1918. of General Order No. 31, VI army, French, as fol

lows :

"In addressing myself to the divisions of the United States of America, who had covered themselves with glory in the Chateau-Thierry offenfaive. I aid that orders given by the chief were always carried out, in spite of difficulties and the sacrifices necessary to win. "In the Thirty-seventh Ninety-first

Escaut 'to the death.' American troops of these divisions, acting in concert with the Frnech divisions of the group of armies of Flanders, broke through the enemy on the 31st of October, 1918and after severe fighting threw him across the Escaut. "Tht-n, attempting an operation of

J war of unheard of audacity, the Amer

ican units crossed the over-flooded Escaut, under fire of the enemy, and maintained themselves on the opposite bank of the river in spite of his counter attacks. "Glory to such troops and their chiefs. They have valiantly contributed to the liberation of a part of Belgian territory and to final victory. "Their great nation may be proud of them. "DEGOUETTE."

Stone to Speak Tonight; Clinic Has Fifteen Cases The clinic that opened at Eastbaven, last Monday with only five cases, closed its night's work Friday with 15. Nine o'clock was the hour for closing.: but because of the number that pre-, sented themselves the offices could not be closed until eleven o'clock.

Dutch frontier to a junction with the British at Cambrai. Degouette was also chief of the army at ChateauThierry, in which the first great American success was won. It was under Degouette that the Thirty-seventh achieved its greatest distinction of the war. In the offensive from Olsene, the objective was to outflank Ghent and force its evacuation.

Farm Federation

After wrestling with the live stock marketing problem for several weeks, officers of the Indiana Federation of Farmers' associations and members of tjie permanent live stock committee of the organization believe they have evolved a working plan which will be of great, benefit and protection to the stock producers of the state and shippers from adjoining states. Under the proposed plan the federation will have an experienced live stock agent as its representative at I lie Indianapolis stock yards, and later at other yards about the state, whose duty will be to look after all shipments which are consigned througn his care, a small

fee of 1 cent per head on hogs, calves j and sheep, and I cents per head on all j cattle to be added. j

I lie federation is to pay tlie salary of the live stock agent, who in no way v ill serve as a commission broker. One of t he features of the new plan is that the producer may consign his shipment to the commission merchant with whom he has been doing business through t lie farmers' agent, or lie may leave the matter entirely to this agent, who in turn, will place the stock at the disposal of the commission merchant, best able to handle the consignment. Officers of the federation believe that with an active representative at 1 lie yards looking after the interests of the farmer much of the trouble which lias been experienced in the past can he eliminated.

EATON, O., April 26. Preble County Pomona Grange added 141 members to its roster in a meeting here Saturday. The candidates represented the

membership of the 12 grange units in the county, which are branches of the

Saturday at ; county organization. Four degrees are

conferred by the subordinate granges and the fifth and final degree by the county grange. The meeting Saturday was an allday affair and was held in the Odd Fellow lodge room. Four hundred grangers were in attendance. The degree work was presented in the forenoon and a basket dinner was served at

i noon.

The afternoon session was devoted to a program of addresses, recitations, readings and music, each of the subordinate granges of the county being represented on the program. Among the speakers was Harry D. Bragg, of New Paris, state deputy grange master for Preble county. Pomona Grange meets every two months. The next meeting will take place in June at New Paris. In August a meeting will be held at Greenbush. Camden grange will entertain a meeting at Camden in October.

County officers have called the attention of the veterans of the various wars of the republic to the provisions under which tax exemptions may be claimed. Soldiers over 70 years "of age and soldiers' widows over 60 may claim an exemption of $1,000. Many applications were filed last year before the law took effect, but these applications will have no force this year as the law provides that exemptions must be filed every year. The pension certificate of the applicant must be exhibited with the application for exemption. Applications may be presented until the first Monday in May.

Any Anti-Fat treatment tnat fails to correct the perverted appetite and craving for the very foods which make fat is certain to fail of permanent results. Mark that fact well! Fivegrain tablets Arbolone removes the craving for undesirable fatty foods, restores natural appetite and digestion, while it dissolves fatty accumulations in the body and eliminates slowly but surely, without weakening or other evil effects. Mrs. 1,. Holly, Imperial. Calif, writes: "Kind Sirs: Have taken your Arbolone Tablets for obesity and in seven months reduced from 205 pounds to 152 pounds. I cannot say enough for them, and anybody who is fat should take them. My health is better than ever, etc." Tablets Arbolone enjoy the largest sale of any obesity medicine, and they deserve it.
