GENERAL PROTECTIVE TARIFF IS EXPECTED TO REVIVE BUSINESS WASHINGTON. Feb. 7. Advocates of a nw general protective tariff law among the members of the Indiana delegation In the house of representatives are hopeful that Senator Penrose' prophecy., that this law. will become effective before - June 30 th closa of the current fiscal year, will come true. These members of congress firmly believe .that the proposed general tariff law will have a good effect in ameliorating economic conditions in the United States. It is expected that by the time the new tariff law is written upon the statute bookJ the state of war with Germany will have been ended formally Irresolution of congress. In fact there are many who predict that one of the first acts of the new congress when It meets in April In special session will fe .to declare peace with Germany. Expect Revival. It is also expected that by the time the new tariff becomes operative industry will have revived to a considerable extent and the "peak of the existing depression will have been passed. Then, according to a well informed member of the Indiana delegation, there will be a demand for the salvation of the home market from the Invasion of foreign imports, which are growing so much faster, he says, than exports as to threaten the balance of trade, which Is now in America's favor. The same authority points out that with business nearer a normal condition there will be a general request for the nurturing of the young American industries that have 'sprung up during the war. Further, it is stated lliere will be strong insistence that American workmen not be placed in direct competition as to wages with the workmen in foreign countries. Frame Scientific Measure. The house ways and means committee has been holding hearings on the proposed general tariff bill for some time and it is announced that the bill will be framed and laid before the house immediately upon the new congress being summoned in extra session. It 13 stated that the committee Is working with the end in view of producing a scientific measure, properly constructed and well balanced, yielding as much revenue as possible, but not placing an embargo upon foreign goods, which is the principal complaint aeainst the emergency tariff bill now bleeding to death in the senate. It is planned for the new tariff measure to give American capital and labor a proper and reasonable measure of immunity from foreign competition without going to extremes.

INSTITUTE

(Continued from Page One) an event in my life, the first time a teacher had smiled at me. "He asked me to go Into the house with him which I did. of course, though I didn't want to. Talking with me, then, he said some things that I remembered all my life, and that are responsible for my presence this day. "Commenting on my energy," he remarked, "Do you know that it is the same steam in the engine down on the railroad (the lines had just been extended and we had been down to look at the 'iron horse') that makes that engine go backward that makes it go forward? Holden promised. "The only difference is that the lever has been pulled one way instead of the other- I have been afraid that you might pull the lever the wrong way. Now. when you get up in the morning, do you get up with a grouch or does everything look rosy? I want you to promise to swing your arms a while every morning when you first get up and say to yourself: "This day I will beat my own record." This Holden says he promised and even now it may be seen that he has a. noti.ceable mannerism of swinging his ams as he talks, his most common and unconscious gesture. Emphasizing the importance of 'correct living from day to day. Holden said: "I had to hire several thousand boys and girls at one time, and I soon learned to know that they were not dependable if they could not stand straight and look me in the eye. I cannot impress upon you too strongly that every laugh, every glancer every spoken word and the tones of your voice tell what you have been and

what you are. Whatever you do will ' show some time so that all can see it."i Points Out Maxims

In conclusion. Prof. Holden gave several maxims for easy guidance, the most important being: "I will keep my own standard." "If you will do that you will conif out all right, because you can all tell vhwher you should do any certain thing or not." Others which he mentioned were: "I will, make my own self mind me," "I am the best pal I ever had." "I like to be with me." "I never knew what a gocd pal I bad in myself until I got acquainted with me." Lectures on Soils After an intermission, R. It. Robertcon. soil and orchard expert, gave a lecture on "Improving the Fertility of the Soil,"' illustrated by charts. Soil should be kept fertile, according to him, by drainage, applying limestone, rotating crops, growing legumes, feed

ing livestock, and saving the barnyard manure. The central though of his lecture was that 'a fertile soil makes a prosperous people,' and the charts showed graphically - the results of different methods of building up. soil fertility.

ROBERTSON

In a graphic way the proportion of different elements in the soil were pictured, showing nitrogen and phosphorus as the deficient elements which must be supplied. Nitrogen Needed "Nitrogen should be added through legumes, as , they are the cheapest source," said Robertson." and lime will often be necessary to sweeten the soil before they will grow. If it Is used it should be in the form of ground limestone, not only because it is cheaper, but also because it contains much more calcium than lime in any other form. Calcium oxide, or burned lime, contains only 1120 pounds of calcium In a ton, while hydrated lime is the same thing, with the addition of water, which we could add cheaper on the farm if we want it." Shows Proper Tiling. The chart showing the advantages of proper tiling and the method of laying tile excited much interest. It showed graphically the water levels with and without tile and how tile would enable the soil to hold more water for a dry season. Also the right way to join on a tile to a main line was shown, how to make a good outlet, and the damage that an open ditch could do. Speaking of the use of legumes, Robertson said, "We have what we call soil builders and 6oil robbers among the plants, some which ust more than they take out of the soil, and others which put back valuable elements in the soil. Legumes are soil builders in this way since they increase the nitrogen in the soil and their use will mean a more fertile farm. Manure Utilized. Emphasizing that all manure and other organic matter should be saved and returend to the soil, Robertson showed a cartoon by a Japanese artist which depicted all the valuable elements being carried away from an open manure pile by little imps representing the leaching action of the weather, and this cartoon while it excited amusement, made an impression which was reflected in the remark of an auditor, "I'm going home as soon as this show is over and start that spreader." Entry clerks were busily engaged all morning in noting down the exhibits as they came in and exhibitors were compelled to "line up" army fashion, and wait their turn. Easthaven Farm Exhibits. Entries in the food show comprised cakes, pies, cookies, candies and bread, none of which would have been safe from the visitors appetites except for the glass cases in which they were arranged. The sewing exhibits were taken to the senior high school for display where tho women's program will be given since the Coliseum offered no suitable place for them. The Easthaven asylum sent in a complete display of products of the farm which occupies all of one table. Mrs. Scott also has an exhibit of sewing and basketry made by patients of the institution which will be on display until the end of the show but will be sold for the benefit of the makers and may be taken after the show. She reported much of it sold before the end of the first morning. D. W. Scott, farm superintendent of the asylum also has entries in the small grain exhibits, though he is not entered for the corn. Tables Display Exhibits. The exhibits are arranged on tables set along both sides of the Coliseum floor and for the corn show several extra tables were necessary. At the first table on the women's side are shown the glass exhibits of fruit, jellies, vegetables and meats, the latter canned by the cold pack process. Following them is the table with the Easthaven displays, showing a most artistic and skillful workmanship, which is exciting much admiration genuine, as it is backed up by the money which they are paying out for the articles. Boys and girls are well represented among the exhibits, particularly in corn and in sewing. Boston township school has sent several entries and is attending as is Centerville school also.

PROSECUTOR WOULD AVOID MIXED JURY IN M'GANNON TRIAL

By Associated Press) CLEVELAND, Feb. .7. A jury, composed either of all men or all women will be sought by Edward C. Stanton, county prosecutor,' to try the case of Judge William H. McGannon, which was scheduled to start today. Stanton said he intended taking the matter up with counsel for Judge McGannon before the tridtl,: in an effort to work out a method whereby a mixed jury might be avoided because of the possibility of a long drawn out legal battle.

Under the present statutes, Stanton i

said, it is impossible to separate a jury. ' Judge McGannon goes on trial for the second time on the charge of second degree murder for the alleged killing of Harold C. Kagy. a garage

owner, on the night of May 7 last. The .

He declared ho had no new witnesses. . Counsel for" McGannon said at least seven hew witnesses would testify that the judge was not at the scene of the shooting. It had not been decided early today which of the common pleas judges would preside, but it was probable the case would go before Judge A. J. Pearson or Judge Homer G. Powell. '

Farmer Asks $500 Damages;, Trainman Neglected 'Chores' (By Associated Press) -SANDUSKY, O., Feb. 7. Whether a trainman must stop now and then in the performance of his regular duties, and milk cows, if the cows are on his train, is the Question at issue in a suit filed in common pleas court here by William Myerl, Earie county farmer, against the B. and O. railroad. He asks for $500 damages. Myerl complained that a consignment of cows from Beeleville, were on the road 40 hours and were not milked during the time.

calves in the shipment, the suit said, which asserted three of the calves died, because improperly fed and because of exposure to the cold.

PITIFUL TRAGEDIES OCCUR AS EMIGRANT FAMILIES ARE DIVIDED

fBy Associated Press) ' BREMEN, Germany, Feb. 7. Hundreds of emigrants who come, into Bremen, Hamburg and Danzig to seek new homes in America are rejected before they can embark for what to them is the land of plenty and promise. Tragic scenes are numerous when the ships' physicians . announce the list of those barred because of signs of disease or disability which would prevent their admission to the United States. One hundred home-seekers were'' rejected out of B00 who attempted to leave Bremen on one steamer recently. All these unfortunates were not defective, but the rejection of one member of a family in many cases prevented the entire group from sailing for America. Groups Break Up The most pitiful of the tragedies occur in the breaking up of family groups when some children old enough to travel alone are allowed to proceed to America, while others are detained. Weeping mothers among the hundred rejected the other day tried to kiss the hands of the physicians in an effort to get them to alter their diagnosis while scared groups of bundleladen emigrants stood by in terror lest some technicality might also keep them off the steamer train for Bremerhaven. One PoMsh woman, the widow of an army surgeon, and her 16-year-old son had been rejected at Danzig when the stfamer had touched there because the boy had conjunctivitis. The wb-

j man came with her son by train to

Bremen and pleaded for another examination here, but the physicians adhered to their original diagnosis, and the woman was compelled to remain with her son. In several cases one child in a family of five orsix showed traces of trachoma or conjunctivitis.

This was sufficient to halt the whole family or to break up the family group, some of the members of which might go to America while others could not. Examine Applicants . Typhus, trachoma and favus, an affection of the scalp, are the three diseases for which ships' physicians seek above all others in examining emigrants from Poland and other "war areas destined for the United States. The United States emigration officials are slow to admit persons whose eyes are not normal and force the steamship line to carry them back to their port of embarkation. Besides a fine of $200 may be imposed upon the steamship companies for carrying such persons to American ports. Consequently, agents of the steamship lines take few chances in these days when there are hundreds of emigrants clamoring for every steerage passage available from Danzig, Bremen and Hamburg to the - United States.
