i The Alleged Farm Implement Trust The latest report of the federal trade com
mission charges manufacturers of farm imple
ments and dealers in these implements with
systematic" restraint of trade." It alleges that makers of farm implements have advanced
prices through "concerted action" and announces that it has recommended the re-opening of antitrust proceedings against the International Har- : vester company on the ground that the company
had failed to carry out its agreement with the! r
department of justice to sell some of its interests. The International Harvester company emphatically denies the charges of the commission. Without doubt the company will be given ample opportunity to disprove the allegations that have been made against it. It was hoped by many business men that the federal trade commission would take a reasonable and just view of modern industrial enterprises and would refrain from making allegations on insufficient data to the detriment of legitimate business development. Abstractly, the dominating position which a

facie evidence that it is oppressing the public or charging extortionate prices for the commodity it manufactures. Mere bigness is not a crime under the antitrust law, neither does the "dominating position" of an industry of necessity prove that it is indulging in activities that are in "restraint of trade."
Today's Talk By George Matthew Adams
THE INANIMATES It takes a lifetime sometimes Just to , find three friends or so. But about us ever are the inimates of our dally ' existence which, are able to remind and cheer and Inspire. The familiar chair, book, picture, , bd, lamp, desk, tree, gate these out of scores-which background our daily walk are they not as real In Influence as flesh and blood? I walk into my library and, there sits my typewriter, ready for my fingers. And with what delight do we play! What Joys have we two discovered during the dead of night when the silence of the world bowed its head to us! Who has not talked all day long with a stream, or a crowd of flowers? And who has not stroked the back of a dog and beard in return its tale of love? I say to you that though all your friends desert you, still do you have about you the Inanimates of a great world! I recently walked through the tbriPling pathway of a mighty chasm, with j rocks of a, thousand formations rising ion both sides the handiwork of a : long-ago age. And as I stood and looked and wondered, each rock seemed to tell me all the secrets of ts past. And so stirred was I in my heart that I said silently: "Thank you, God, for these great creatures with no language but with every language." Not every wonderful thing talks out loud.

"A grindstone," was the reply. "Anyhow," remarked the blunt friend, "this old boat of yours will never get you arrested for speeding." "No," answered Mr. Chuggins, "but 111 get arrested just the same, only it'll be for standing still In the wrong place." "How has the general health of this community been of late?" asked the tourist who had an inquiring mind. "Finer than frog hair!" triumphantly replied the landlord of the tavern at Tywoppity. "You see, we had only two doctors. One ot 'em run off with another man's wife and the other was took on the jury and held so long that all the 6lck got well."
Good Evening By Roy K. Moulton
Mayor Zimmerman called attention to one of the gravest dangers to the lives of oersons living in Richmond,
the various Pennsylvania and C. and O. railroad crossings, several of which were , not protected by watchmen. "Doc" recommended that live young men be placed on the job, instead of aged or crippled persons. Superintendent of police I. A. Gorman was nettled at the slowness of council in passing" an ordinance compelling vehicles to run on the right side of the street, and wait to make turns at a corner. He appeared before the council with the request that such an ordinance be passed. E. M. Haas, Ray Robinson and Dr. T. Henry Davis went to Indianapolis to confer with Robert Todd, general manager of the Terre Haute, Indianapolis & Eastern Traction Co., regarding a proposition to build a traction line into Hawkins addition and to take 6tock in the company which proposed to buy the land for park purposes.
Dinner Stories
"I watched a wonderful machine at our shop work this morning." "And how does it work?" we asked. "Well," was the reply, "by means of a pedal attachment, a fulcrumed lever converts a vertical reciprocating motion into a circular movement. The principal part of the machine is a huge dink that revolves in a vertical plane. Power is applied through the
Mr. Hoppe and the Beautiful Ladles Wo have been much concerned about the probable fate of Mr. Hoppe, the eminent English art photographer, who is in this country to select America's five most beautiful women. It may "be that he is in this country for no such purpose whatever, and in fact he says he is not, but if he is, be has our condolences. In America we have queer ideas of beauty. As soon as it Is bruited about that somebody Is going to select the five or 10 most beautiful women in
America we are treated to newspaper pictures of hundreds of beautiful women, and find ourselves wondering

others are good looking. Personally I have always favored the latter, but

We believe that after looking over the first 900,000 Mr. Hoppe will be ready to hop back. And, at that, they don't look as beautiful as they did before prohibition set in.

Farm Federation
At the quarterly meeting of the board of directors of the Indiana Federation of Farmers' associations, it was decided that the program of the second annual state convention of the organization should cover two days this year instead of one as originally provided. Speakers, of national importance will be brought here to address the delegates to the convention which promises to be the greatest gathering of its kind ever held in Indiana. The board . of directors were unanimous in their opinion that aside from the transaction of regular convention business, a program should be provided which would give the farmers the opportunity of hearing addresses from recognized experts on questions of vital interest to the rural communities. In the absence of President John G.
Brown, the board meeting was presid-
The best looking lady I ever saw in ed over by Everett McClure, first vice-
my life was Miss Lizzie Katz, whose
father kept a delicatessen store, but you would by no means call her beautiful because almost any lady can be beautiful if she floats in the proper stratum of society, and Miss Katz got along entirely on her looks. In my younger days I thought Miss Katz the most beautiful creature that ever lived. Later, after looking at the pictures of beautiful women, I found that Miss Katz was not beautiful she was something more she was good to look at. I don't know to this day whether it was the perfect contour of her face, her wonderful eyes or her Cupid's bow mouth that held me spellbound, but as she stood there day after day carving the headcheese and fishing out the dill pickles, her wondrous hair reflecting the yellowish tint of the tub of oleomargine, I often said, away back in thlse days, that if Mr.-Hoppe ever did come over here, he should
hop around and see Miss Katz. The point I am trying to make is that what was true of Miss Katz is doubtless true of many other young ladies, although Miss Katz, I am sorry to say, eloped with a circus strong man and the next time-1 saw her she was the mother of nine children, and while perhaps more beautiful was not quite so good looking. Maybe It was because I had grown older and was less optimistic, but the former Miss Katz had lost most of the jazc and zip that was hers when
The Farm and ' The Farmer By William R. Sanborn
, ' Speaking with reference to the fire, supposedly caused by lightning at 1 o'clock last Sunday morning, J. A. Hockett said: "I consider myself for
tunate, In that we saved all the build
ings but the barn and silo; also that
all the livestock was in the pastures
We saved the hoghouse, the garage, two sheds and the workshop with
tools, etc., on account of the wind be
ing in the right direction."
Mr. Hockett stated that he had 60ld his wheat at harvest time, and that his seed wheat was left in the loft of the hoghouse. He lost 225 bushels of oats, 20 tons of baled straw, some loose oats and eight tons of clover, two tons of fertilizer, the tools and implements which were in the bam, on which he had but $1,000 insurance.
The Hockett farm lies two and onehalf miles 'south of town on the Liberty pike. Farmer Buys Meat Market Willard Cook, who has been farming the old Fender place, on the Cen-terville-Abington pike, is about to pull out of Wayne county, having purchased a meat market in Connersville. Earl Ford, a young neighbor, now working for Gale Smoker, has rented the farm and will take possession immediately after the Cpok cleanup sale.

Is Threshing Clover Lawrence McConaha, of Centerville,!
is threshing a 20-acre field of bis red clover which Is yielding- well, and will
finish it up by Saturday evening. R. L Peele, south of Centerville, Is among the few farmers who are reporting fine crops of watermelons and cantaloupes this year. Several have complained of melons failing to ripen and also of rather flavorless "nutmegs," even in farm gardens.,The elevator at Centerville is still on watch for a car of cement, which was ordered early last spring. Large construction work and the demand from builders of cement bridges and roads have cut the supply of cement for ordinary uses. The sllo-filllng crews are picking the spots where the corn Is most advanced and have thus been kept busy during the week. William Sourbeer, living on the Liberty pike, and Frank King, Just north of Centerville, are among the very few who have completed that Job. Humphrey Mikesell,
living on the Arba pike, is also among the early birds and is said to be the first to fill a silo up his way. Sowlna of Fall Wheat.

Kara you ever exclaimed as you beheld your complexion in the mirror. "If I only could tear oft this old skint" And. do you know you can do that very thing?

No matter how muddy, rough, blotchy or freckled your complexion, you can surely discard it by this simple process. Just get an ounce ot ordinary mercolized wax at your drug gist's, apply nighUy like cold cream, washing It oft mornings. The result will be truly marvelous.
