CHICAGO, Nov. 1. Claims and counterclaims, with flashes of old-time political enthusiasm marked the conclusion of the campaign in the states of the central west today. Mystery as to the tide of the tremendous woman vote was reflected in many eleventhhour discussions of the general situation. It was stated on all sides that the woman vote, together with expected ticket scratching in numerous districts very likely would delay returns and create uncertainty where contests were close. Reports from the various states indicated that in practically all districts unusual steps have been taken to guard against fraud and to curb quickly any attempts to intimidate woman voters. In many Instances the usual number of workers and watchers will be doubled or tripled. Last minute appeals to voters were made by managers of the three nrlncipal gubernatorial candidates in 1111-1 . , . . nois, wnere a campaign of a bitter turn has been in progress. "I will be elected by a vote in excess of 50,000," said former Senator James Hamilton Lewis, Democratic candidate for governor. Managers of Len Small, who has the support of Mayor Thompson of Chicago in his fight for election on the Republican ticket, claimed victory for him over Lewis by 250,000. NEW YORK. Nov. 1. The New York state political campaign closed today with opposing leaders and workers reiterating confidence in victory. While the weather man sent forth a forecast of rain in some sections of the state, political managers declared the vote would be the largest ever recorded. Party leaders today estimated there are 3,468.000 eligible voters. Of these, they said, 1,500,000 jr'omen. Governor Smith, Democratic candidate for re-election, expected to remain at his home here today and his opponent, Nathan L. Miller, was back at his home in Syracuse. Lieutenant Governor Harry C. Walker. Democratic candidate for United States senator, was the only one of the leading candidates with a busy day before him. He planned to end his campaign with an appeal to the voters of Buffalo while his opponent, United States Senator James W. Wadsworth remained at his home in Geneseo. Local contests are keen in several sections the leading fight that conducted by the Socialists for re-election of the five ousted members of the assembly. Socialist leaders predict they will elect five other assemblymen and one or two congressmen. TRENTON, N. J., Nov. 1. A Republican plurality in New Jersey of at least 100,000 and possibly 250,000 was predicted today by F. C. Stokes, Republican state chairman. Charles F. McDonald declared his party will carry the state, although he made no estimate of the vote. Secondary only to interest in the presidential vote is that in the contests in the twelve congressional districts in several of which modification of the Volstead aCt has been an issue. PROVIDENCE, R. I., Nov. 1. The presence on the ballot of three candidates for congress, Republican, Democrat and Socialist, in two of the three Rhode Island districts, has enlivened the campaign in this state. Last minute rallies were held in behalf of all the candidates. DETROIT, Nov. 1. Democratic party leaders today reiterated predictions that Woodbridge N. Ferris, their candidate for governor, and several Democratic congressmen would be elected tomorrow. Republican leaders predicted a "clean sweep from top to bottom" with a plurality of from 175,000 to 250,000. A total vote of more than 750,000 is looked for by party managers.

SUN - TELEGRAM. RICHMOND.

The Farm - By WILLIAM Charles Shutz, living on the JJalton road out of Hagerstown, dropped in on us Saturday to show us some red corn, that is really "red". The ears gathered Friday in the course of criboperations, weightd one pound, while some variegated ears gathered several days earlier, also balanced the scales at the same weight. Mr. Shultz is partial to red corn. He says it produces well and matures early. Moreover, when fed to the hogs the youngsters go nosing around for yellow ears, but soon find the red article is just as filling, and then go to it. Old hogs grab the red ears as they come to them. With reference to yield Mr. Shultz says they raised one i field that ran 70 bushels last year and that they thing they have a field which will run 75 bushels this fall. They are now cribbing, with 400 bushels already gathered. In this field where red predominates one may find ears of all colors, also white corn and much that is mottled. Lamb Feeding Experiment An extensive experiment to test the value of different fattening rations for lambs has just been started by Purdue university with 200 choice western lambs purchased on the Chicago market. The animals have been divided into eight lots and different kinds of feed are being fed to each group with the idea of answering the following questions when the experiment is com pleted: Is it more profitable to feed a light or full feed of corn? Is cottonseed meal or linseed meal more efficient for fattening lambs? What is the most profitable amount of linseed or cottonseed meal to feed with rations containing silage and oats straw? Can oat straw be made to take the place of clover hay in the rations for fattening lambs? The lambs were purchased for $12.25 per hundred at Chicago and weighed sixty-two pounds per head. Corn Show Prizes $735 At the mass meeting of farmers at Rushville it was discovered that $735 in cash had been insured for prizes at the coming corn show, to be held some time in December, date not yet named. The show "promises to rival the state corn show this year. Wheat Visible Compared The American visible supply of wheat was but 35.000.000 bushels Oct. 25. against 113,500.000 bushels on the same date in 1919. Corn, however, showed a liberal increase, compared with a year ago, the visible being 10,300,000 against 5,110,000 last year, while there were almost 34,000,000 bushels of oats in sight against 22,211,00 in 1919. Milk Costly in Chicago. A reduction of one cent on milk from 16 cents per quart and 10 cer.tc per pint, in bottles, docs not suit the fair price folks in Chicago. Secretarj Poole, of the councjl H. C. L. committee has summoned the dealers to explain why two cents was not cut off the price. "After studying the milk situation from the growing of the grain to tlie dining table." snys Mr. Poole, "we have figures which show Chicago should receive its milk, under present conditions, at 8 cents per pint and 14 cents per quart." Milk producer". in the Chicago district recently ac-1 cepted a cut of a cent a pound on their product, in spite of their protest that there was not a living profit at the going price. Australia has been delivering wheat in France at 15 cents under our prictand Argentine has been selling Great Britain cargoes of corn at 8 to 10 cents under our lowest export figures. It also has been shipping corn to the Pacific coast, via the, Panama canal, at lower prices than Iowa could deliver it. at. Seattle or San Francisco. by rail, and the arrival of a cargo of Argentine corn at New York was in ' 1 J i 41 . 1mnst dnilv orriirpnff- dnrins' thp n,i;f year of high priced corn. Canada his been supplying our spring wheat mil lers with wheat and hundreds of ou.' dealers with flour during the past 60 days. ELIASON SALE NETS $1,650. The Wood Eliason sale of Big Type Poland hogs held Saturday, netted $1,650. E. A. Ricks, of Lewlsville, bought Big Bone Buster, ranking number 1 in the catalogue, and Harry Macey selected Superior Buster, in the male line. Both Ricks and Macey were liberal buyers, as were also Clarence Crowe and William Oxer, who eivch picked up a few good ones. The Eliason folks furnished a nice lanch and Joseph Blose kept the sales sale. Prices ran pretty evenly, no out - side figures being paid for any single offering. Mr. Eliason is president of the local Big Type Breeders Association and his friends from all parts of the county took all the offerings, with but a single exception. Earlh am Chapel exercises Monday morning were conducted by Professor Harlow Lindley. He spoke on the tercentanary celebration of the landing of tho Pilgrim Fathers, outlining their putposes in leaving England and the hardships encountered by them on their journey. Robert Louis Stevenson's "Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde," a highly recommended moving picture, will be shov.n next Saturday evening in the chapel. Erect New Building r ar il I7 LL Cj jn ivurifl ligfiift uireei A two-story building with basement is to be erected on the lot occupied by the lunch and confectionery stand belonging to Harry E. Parker, on North Eighth street, according to an announcement made Monday. Mr. Parker has closed his stand and plans to re-open for business as soon as the first floor of the new building is ready for use. It was estimated by Mr. Parker Monday, that it would be at least two months before he would again be ready accommodate his trade. He will have much more floor space under the new arrangements. His plans include a more complete equipment. High School The R club held its first meeting of the year Monday morning. Routine business will be discussed at faculty meeting Monday. Mr. Clevenger was absent from the high school Monday on account of illness.

Nov. 1 A number of the county associations have report ed to headquarters of the Indiana hed eration of Farmers Associations that they have been experiencing extreme,. difficulty in procuring an adequate supply of coal for the winter through their local dealers, and requested information from the Federation as to how they should comply with the new state law in the distribution, of the produce where they ordered direct shipments. President John G. Brown, in company with "B. F. Catherwood. of: th1 Tippecanoe county association,! called on the coal commission at the ' state house during the last we k a'nd Mr. Brown issued the following state- ' ment to the Indiana farmers: "After an investigation of the coal situation we would advise all county; associations contemplating buying coal ; in car load lots from the mines in ' this state, to take out the regular license before placing such an order, i It Is possible that such a license might not be required where it was shown j that the coal buying was not for thepurpose of gain, but for the purpose of, getting a necessity at a reasonable price, but to avoid any difficulties which might arise, it would be our ad-! vice to procure this license. We have on file at headquarters the blank an-! plication forms for such use, which may be had upon request of our gen-, eral secretary. ! Handling Charge High "We advise this course only where i coal can not be procured from local : dealers, or where dealers exact un- j reasonable handling charges. It is our view that a handling charge of j $2.25 a ton, as allowed by the state ( coal commission, is too high a margin 1 for farmers who haul their own coal." !

(Continued from Page One) that Yarling spent little or no time in Henry county. The Palladium correspondent at Newcastle estimates that with a full vote the Republican majority in Henry county will approximate 2.600. which is about double the normal majority, and results from the fact that the women will vote Tuesday. "Union county will support the entire Republican ticket and will increase the normal Republican majority of 175 to over 400, Tuesday." the correspondent at Liberty reports. There are 336 unregistered voters in Union, the smallest county in the district, about half of them being Republicans and the others Democrats.

There are 1,913 men and 1,720 women j eligible to vote in Union, j Fayette Majority 1,000. The' Republican organization in Fay ette county is claiming that county by a majority of not les sthan 1.000. an increase of about 400 over the G. O. P. majority in 1918. This claim is disputed by the Fayette county Democratic organization, which coateiids that the Republican majority in Fayette will be reduced below that returned two years ago. "If the weather is good approximately the entire woman vote of Rush county will be polled and this will result in a heavy Republican majority," reports the Rushville correspondent. He advises that Senator Watson will head the Republican ticket Tuesday. Rush county is the home of the senator. The normal G. O. P. majority in Rush county is about 400. However, the Republicans carried that county by 793 two years ago, and they are expecting to repeat Tuesday with a majority equally as large. Women trade unionists in Great Britain now number more than 1,000,000. We can save you dealer's profit on a Uaed Piano or can trade your Silent Piano for a Vlctrola.
