Alleged III Temper is Basis of Divorce Suit Being the target for vile names, loose missies and false accusations is not very pleasant, according to the testimony of James A. Willis, in Wayne circuit court, Saturday morning. He was asking for a divorce from Melissa Willis, and custody of their five children. Less than three weeks ago, according to the plaintiff, his wife struck him with a hammer. He and three of his children testified that the defendant was in the habit of abusing the plaintiff without provoke or argument. "She just has a terrible temper which she doesn't try to govern," according to their statements. Prosecutor Paul Beckett told the court that he had investigated the case and found that the defendant was a woman of vile temper and given to irrofanity. Because of the need of two more witnesses to testify that the plaintiff has been a resident of this county for two years, the case was continued by Judge Bond.

SUN - TELEGRAM, RICHMOND,

The Farm and The Farmer By William R. Sanborn

The manager of the elevator at Fountain City says that Will Barnes, living just east of town, probably would be the first New Garden farmer to thresh wheat this- season. , He will start Tuesday morning. A price of $1.04 for new wheat opened the ball at Fountain City Friday morning. Of course, there was no wheat threshed for delivery, but ' u . i . . vw.. uittL Hiia tut: cuuiicli;i yucu tu uwc wishing to deaL The people of Boston township are hoping to escape a chinch bug invasion, and up to Saturday morning no reports of any pests whatsoever had come in from that section. The Kitchell elevator reports the last of the wheat being cut today, and says that threshing will begin on Tuesday, July 5. "I do not think we own a single threshing outfit in Boston," said the elevator man. "Richard Davenport j owned a machine last year, but I think ii cas oeen soia. i neo. n-ooeris, liv ing east of Richmond, on the New Paris pike, does a lot of threshing down this way, Boston being his old home township." Farmers tell us that oats in the district south of Richmond have been filling fast since the last rains and that, while the straw will be short, there will be much more grain than could have been hoped for three weeks ago. Union county farmers are telling the same story where oats do not stand too thin on the ground. Will Meet on 11th The Center township farmers will meet on Monday, July 11, the second Monday of the month, and thus pass up business on the night of the "Glorious Fourth," that being a bad evening on which to get out a crowd. There has been some inqury as to the total cost to wool growers con signing to the Ohio Wool Warehouse corooration. where most of the Indiana wool is now pooled. W. W. Reynolds tells us that the total cost to growers on the 1920 clip was 2 cents. This is divided into two charges, 2 cents for labor in grading, cost of selling, etc., and three-fourths of a cent for warehouse storage per pound. Should Save Money The fact that the Grain Growers Finance Corporation has been incor porated under the laws of Delaware, and that its officers and directors comprise the same erouD as that forming the U. S. Grain Growers, Inc., may have been overlooked. This keeps the whole machine in the hands of the Committee of Seventeen, authors of the "plan." This should a saving to the farm bureau, for it is not expected that two salaries and two expense accounts will be asked or allowed the members of the committee for doing business under two titles. Be this as it may the expenses of the American farm bureau are already very heavy. It is no longer a matter of thousands but of hundreds of thousands of dollars for the current year. A Million Contributors In the meanwhile the funds are contributed by more than a million farm - ers, and the list of donors is constant - ly being added to. The federation membership is constantly growing because of the hope of future enef its,;

in a national way. The bureau is nowjijen f0r 172.55 was reinstated on the spending money to speed up organiza- docket in Wayne circuit court, Saturtion work, an expense which in later dav morniner. Dismissal of the case

years need not be incurred, providing there is finally worthwhile accomplishment. This is a matter of time and circumstance in every broad endeavor. Aside from the money the national federation is spending the cost to the states looms into important figures. Based on the claimed circulation of the Hoosier Farmer Indiana farmers will have paid out fully $500,000 for membership dues alone by December 1. Our dues are but $3, but in Illinois they are $15 per year. A large percentage of these payments is kept in the county treasuries or used in the home field. A lot of productive community work should be possible as these funds accumulate. Secretary Wallace Talks. When the secretary-of agriculture talks to 400 millers, as he did at Chicago on Wednesday, he is apt to say much of interest to grain growers, also to board of trade men everywhere. The Chicago Tribune quotes him as follows: "It would be a national calamity for the United States government to take over the grain exchanges and packing institutions of this country," declared Henry C. Wallace, secretary of agriculture, yesterday before 400 millers meeting at the Drake hotel. He spoke on "The United States Government and the American Wheat Crop." He referred particularly to the proposed laws which would give the department of agriculture supervisory power over the grain exchanges of the whole country. "The establishment of reasonable government supervision over grain ex changes would be most helpful in do ing away with much of the violent Light Crop Indicated by Ohio Threshing Reports The wheat Meads are generally light owing both to their being poorly filled and to a greater per cent, than usual of light and shriveled grains, according to reports received by C. J. West, agricultural statistician, from corre spondents throughout the Stae. With threshing only just begun in a few parts of the state it is as yet too early to estimate closely the effect which the apparently poor quality of wheat will have upon the yield, but such reports as have been received are highly unfavorable. - The regular monthly report will be issued July 8. It is estimated that 65 per cent, of the fields of the state are affected by rurt and that this has resulted in considable damage. Oats has been adversely effected by the dry weather in many parts of the state so that the condition has generally gone backward during the past week. On the other hand corn has grown rapidly and has very materially improved in condition. Planting of late potatoes is virtually completed.

criticism which has at times assailed the grain trade." he said. Sees Confidence Restored "It should tend to restore public confidence and give grain growers reasonable assurance that these price making machines are operated fairly to all. If the proposed laws should be enacted and the deartment of agriculture is given supervisory powers over grain exchanges, these powers will be exercised in a constructive way with the sole purpose of doing everything possible to eliminate admitted evils and promote legitimate operations." THRESHING IS STARTED IN PREBLE COUNTY EATON, O., July 2 Wheat threshing has begun in Preble county, according to advices reaching here from several sections of the county. It Gratis township, in the southeast part of the county, the first threshing operations are said to have started. Thus far no new wheat has been received in the market here. According to reports, the wheat yield this season is rather light and the quality is not the be'st. A large per cent of the grain is shriveled, it is said. PUBLIC WISH (Continued from Page One.) nothing substantial is accomplished one way or the other. As to the tariff, only little more can be said. The ways and means committee has held hearings and in prolonged sessions has written a bill, but the writing of a tariff bill by the ways and means committee is always merely a beginning and in the pres ent year it means even less than usual. Between the bill that the ways and means committee has written and the tariff that will ultimately be a law there will probably be little resemblance. All of the real tariff maki ing is yet ahead of us Some of those who have watched congress longest believe it is like that we shall j reach the first of December before the new tariff is made into law. It is this delay the failure of congress to develop leaders and its failure even to know what it wants, that has brought about the imperative call to Harding to assume leadership. Circuit Court Walter J. Pleasant, colored, was granted a divorce from Dora Pleasant, by Judge Bond, in Wayne circuit court, Saturday, on a charge of abandonment. According to the plaintiff. lthe defendant left for parts unknown , m 1912, and repeated efforts to locate her have been fruitless The case of Silas Bricker vs. Noble a.

RAILROAD, ELEVATOR

WAGE SITUATIONS ARE FACTORS IN MARKET (By Associated Press) CHICAGO, July 2. Railroad and elevator wage troubles have greatly unsettled wheat prices this week, and so too have the first big. offerings from the 1921 harvest. Largely in consequence wheat values are down lc to 5 compared with a week ago. Corn finished the week at c off toVc advance, with oats showing losses of IVi to 1 and 2c and provisions varying from 10c setback to 35c advance. Sharpest breaks in the wheat market took place when the fact became evident, that employes of all Chicago grain elevators would quit work, and that a widespread tie-up of railroads was possibly impending. Simultaneous pressure to dispose of new wheat from the winter crop belt added to the flurry in the trade, especially as bearish opinions regarding the general business outlook were receiving considerable notice. On the downward plunge in prices, exporters were prompt to see an op portunity to buy to advantage, and then the market rebounded. Drought news from Russia and other European countries attracted much attention at this juncture and a good deal was made also of abnormal crop conditions in the domestic spring wheat states. Rallies, however, were not well maintained as many bulls preferred to realize on holdings rather than to face uncertainties of the weather and other factors until trading could be resumed on next Tuesday. Corn and oats dropped with wheat, and touched lowest prices yet this season but were steadied later by chances of crop damage. Provisions averaged a little higher, owing more or lass to buying for Europe. NEW YORK, July 2. Aside from the unsettlement occasioned by recur rent weakness of foreign oils, notably Mexican and South American issues the stock market this week main tained a fairly steady tone. Rails and railroad equipments showed a decided tendency to throw off their prolonged spell of depression on1 better earnings and another decrease in idle freight cars. There were indications also that large equipment contracts would soon be awarded by transportation companies. Approach of the mid-year witnessed a further slowing down of operations in the steel industry, but the motor trade was subject to conflicting conditions, curtainment at some centres being offset by increased production elsewhere.

Reports received by the Federal Reserve Board indicate that acceleration of the decline of prices has been beneficial to many retail , lines of merchandise. Easier monty rates prevailed at this and other important financial centers.

ILLINOIS FARMERS ANSWER REFERENDUM CHICAGO. 111., July 2. Overwhelming approval of the Great Lakes-St. Lawrence waterway, farm-to-market roads, the truth-in-fabric bill, and reduced freight rates, are shown . by first returns from the referendum in Illinois. A national referendum is being conducted by the American Farm Bureau Federation to determine the farmers' stand on various policies. The majority in favor cf better financing methods, including rural credits system, commodity flnancine, priority to basic producion loans, increasing federal land bank loans, and continuing the excess profits tax, was 50 to one. Packer regulation was favored by a 40 to one vote. The returns are practically the same as for Indiana, and in Wayne county, with the exception that farmers here where land is cheaper than in other parts of the country, believe that $10,000 is a sufficient amount to be loaned by the federal land bankn, instead of the $25,000 that is advocated. The usual expression on the excess profits tax, also, was that ther3 should not be such a thing as excess profits, that is, profits in excess of 20 to 10 per cent.
