It is located about four miles west of Richmond on the National road. Here the water supply woum come trom wells which, it isi ueciareu, wouia iurnisn water to meet all requirements. Saud and gravel are to be had on the grounds. Along the front of the site is the cement! road, with interurban line running! east and west. Two farms comprise the site, making a total of over 300 acres. Need of a site near a city morally clean was a stipulation made by the inspectors. They were assured that no cleaner city of its size is to be found in the Middle West. Compulsory reporting of all venereal diseased persons to Indianapolis was cited by a local doctor as one of the great factors in eliminating diseased conditions. Money Appropriated. Mr. Kidner said that the government had appropriated $18,600,000 for the establishment of federal hospitals. "Practically all we have dealt with to the present," he said, "has been with national homes where it was comparatively simple to make additions to the buildings standing, for the accommodation of hospital patients. It usually takes the government three months to get a title to a parcel of land. "We, Col. Pearsi.i and myself, were selected only to make recommendations. No buildings have been started yet. The government intends to erect hospitals for the care of those with mental and nervous disorders, and for tuberculosis patients. When a hospital Is built for tuberculosis patients we want an acre of ground for every six men, but when a hospital for men- j tai or nervous disorders is built the requirement is one acre for each patient. Many Factors Involved. "It has been estimated that the cost for each bed in the hospitals is approximately $2,500. The hospital

would not be one large building, it would be composed of many smaller buildings properly separated. In the question of obtaining and holding general nurses for the institutions we have found it necessary that the sites be near activities, so that they may attend social gatherings They do not like to be Isolated" Mr. Kidner said that politics had no bearing in placing the hospitals. It is regulated by the need of certain comj munities where large numbers of exservice men reside within a wide area. He said that those eligible to enter the hospital were men who were listed with the war risk insurance bureau. Mr. Kidner said the peak of disabilities, such as the presence of nervous and mental disorders and tuberculosis, was not expected to be reached until about 1926.

Pool Money Once during the early months of the war, in 1915, Lloyd George remarked that the allies had "pooled their men and pooled their money.'' That remark has since been taken by the French as reason for claiming that Great Britain should contribute to the cost of the war in proportion to her resources, and that she should not demand back the money 6he loaned France. Similarly, important personages in France have taken the position that if we entered the war as part of a partnership for the protection of the world, then we ought to pay our share of the total cost of the war, not merely from the time we entered it, but from the time the war began. Must Pay Cost In any discussion of the moral obligation of Europe to pay us the money we advanced her, a great deal of difference is made by what we give as the official reason for our entrance into the war. Ambassador Harvey's remark has at least the merit of being a firm basis for the claims we are now making. Those who resent Ambassador Harvey's remark and say we entered the war as part of a general partner ship in defense of democracy ought to be willing to meet the bill and pay our share of the total cost of the war.

The Farm and The Farmer By William R. Sanborn

A man who attended the Clifford Smelker sale of Jersey cattle In Darke county, Ohio, on Wednesday, says he was pleasantly surprised. First the gathering was unexpectedly large, the countryside being dotted with cars; seemed to be thousands 'of them, he said, and "there were certainly thousands of people on the place." The next thing which surprised him j was the prices paid for the Majesty line of Register of Merit cows, in these days of depression and low prices for all classes of market stock." The Smelker sale should act as a tonic on all breeders of pure bred cattle, and should also encourage breeders of choice registered hog3. It points to the fact that, regardless of market conditions for meat animals, the buyers of choice breeding stock have not quit business and are willing to pay fair prices for whatever shows real quality. Farm Roller Accidents. Two accidents to drivers of farm rollers occuried in Indiana on Tuesday, one of them causing death. Williaid George, aged 11, living south of Milroy, in Rush county, fell from a roller in the field. The horses became frightened and began to run away. The boy was jolted off and fell forward under the roller. He died a few minutes later. Ira Carman, near Greensburg, was driving a span of young mules to a roller. On making a turn the team started to run and the farmer was thrown off and stunned. While in sensible he barely escaped being run over by another team and roller, driven by a hired hand, the second team also taking fright when the mule team ran. The driver managed to guide his horses past the iorm of the prostrate farmer, by a close shave. Beware of the flighty team and the roller. It is the unexpected which usually happens, you know. Be on the watch. To Buy Cream by Grade. Creamery managers of Michigan have launched a campaign for the buying of cream by grade instead of by the butter-fat content only. Realizing that such an innovation necessitates a long campaign of education, the managers' association is issuing periodical literature to 50,000 creamproducing farmers which is distributed and paid for by creameries. The state farm bureau, the agricultural college, and the Michigan milk producers' association have co-operated with endonsemtnts and publicity. Within a year the association expects to pay for cream by the grades.
