All three condidates said to have been the choice of the present county school administration were defeated for membership on the county board of education in Tuesday's election. The defeat of each was decisive. Harry Mills, Homer Bierly and Arthur Morton defeated Ralph Ayers, Harry Price and A. J. Murray for board membership. The official vote was: Mills, 2635; Bierly, 2596; Morton. 2164; Ayers, 2061; Price, 2041: Murray, 1926. The three men elected made the race as Republicans, while the defeated candidates ran as Inde

roads were constructed without re-: gard to terminals or traffic needs, and with reeard only to spending money

in places where politicians desired it

to os spent. in wo uiicuuu Cleaning an abrupt halt to such practices authors of the new federal road aid law were careful to have it framed so that it could never be referred to as "pork barrel" legislation. The secretary of agriculture is given far more control over the selection of roadways under the new act than he ever had under previous road aid laws. He will be called upon to approve all

systems of roads presented to him by state highway commissions before

they can be constructed with the aid of federal funds. The new law provides that 60 per cent of each state's share of the federal road appropriation shall be ex

pended upon interstate roads until j

they are completed, ana, witn me consent of the state highway commission, all of the money may be expended on these interstate highways. Assured of Funds Under this provision of the law.

good roads enthusiasts in the Sixth Indiana district who are particularly! interested in having the National road j converted into a model highway fromj the Ohio to, the Illinois lines have as-

surance that sufficient funds will be available for the furtherance of that project. This section of the law is

the first recognition by the federal

government of the principle that it is the first duty of the government to assist in building its interstate roads. The apportionment of the federal road funds to the states is to be made

as follows: One-third in the ratio, which the area of the state bears to the total of all the states; one-thirds

in the ratio which the population of

the state bears to the total population ' for safeguarding the federal money

of all the states; and one-third in the ratio which the mileage of rural delivery routes and star routes in each state bears to the total mileage of rural delivery and star routes in all of the states.

Congress has made every provision

appropriated for good roads against waste in construction and maintenance of durable types of roads. It is specifically provided that only such

types of surface and kind3 of material shall be adopted for construction of any highway which is a part of the primary, or interstate, and secondary, or inter-county, systems as will ade

quately meet the existing and probable future needs of traffic. The secretary of agriculture is authorized to , approve the types of construction 1 adopted.

provides that before any state can participate in federal aid for its highways it must lay out a system of roads approved by the secretary of agriculture, consisting of not more than seven per cent of the road mileage of the state. Three-sevenths of that seven per cent shall be interstate mileage, con

The Amprican Legion post has requested a suspension of business activities between the hours of 12 o'clock noon and

these requirements and will experience no delay in securing its quota of the federal appropriation. It was the purpose of framing the legislation in this way to prevent the use of federal funds in uncorrelated roads. The first federal aid act, in relation to roads, carried a small appropriation, the principal purpose being to stimulate the interest of the states in the building of good roads. In some states, it is charged, this fund came to be treated as "pork";

people to take Pepgen. if they are troubled with stomach, kidney or liver ills. If you suffer with indigestion, dizziness, headaches, constipation, pains in the back, or an uncomfortable bloated feeling after eating.

you had better go to the drug store whose name appears below and obtain a bottle of Pepgen.

The symptoms described above

often come from a disordered stomach, kidneys or liver. The longer you allow your ailments to remain unchecked, the longer it will

take to treat them. Start taking

Pepgen at once. In a few days you will feel like another person. "In my occupation as teacher of cooking I am frequently called upon by scholars in my class to taste various foods they prepare," says Miss Wehrley. "This continual taking of bites had its harmful effect upon my system. About one year ago I began to have indigestion, and then came tired, worn-out feelings. My complexion became sallow. "I lost my appetite and began losing weight. I realized that I needed a good tonic. So many people in my home city were recommending Pepgen that I tried

it. 1'epgen relieved me. I am no longer affected by formations of gas on my stomach, even when I eat foods that are hard to digest. 1 have a very high opinion of Pepgen. I am pleased to recommend it whenever opportunity offers."

Farmers Using Limestone Heavy Buying of "Stone" to Correct Soil Acidity Over the State. Farmers of Indiana have used more limestone in the last three months than they have in the year previous. This has been due to the fact that an organized effort ha3

been made in several counties to find out. the number of acres of acid soil, how acid they are, what results applications of limestone have been giving, and then a concerted effort by the farmers to see how best to supply themselves with limestone to put their ground in condition to raise legumes and profitable crops. The active co-operation of the railroads and the limestone producers was solicited and resulted in a lowering of freight rates and the producers putting out a product more profitable for farm use.

"Limestone can be applied economically to wheat already sown," said W. A. Ostrander of the soils and crops extension staff of Purdue university, in discussing the use of limestone and the situation in the state this fall. "If November and December stay dry and the

roads hard, as soon as corn husk

Farmer Finds Good Orchard Method Pays

An interesting

demonstration was held recently in

Lawrence county, on the orchard of Charles Colglazier, which had been purchased in 1920, with a fouryear growth of trees measuring only from three and one-half to four feet in height and of stunted and scrawny appearance. An application was made of a half pound of nitrate of soda around each tree by disking nd otherwise cultivating the ground early in the spring and afterwards sowing to cowpeas. which were left on the land, thus enabling him to get a new growth of foliage. In the spring the orchard was again disked and cultivated for a few weeks and again sown to cowpeas. The latter have been cut and are in the shock cur

ing and will be used to feed his

'i dairv cows. He intends to disk the

spring." In the seven counties, including and surrounding Vigo, the county agents and farmers' associations worked together in carrying the limestone information to the farmers, and as a result, one "stone" producer in that territory reports 12.000 tons sold from July 15 to Oct. 1. Most of this went into the district.

In Harrison county, where one ter methods community could not be reached!

from the railroad, a crusher was purchased by the farmers and 3,000 tons have been pulverized and sold since July 1. Clark county farmers started a concerted effort in June and have applied 1.300 tons from that pulverized locally or outside shipments. Marl is being generally used in many northern Indiana counties, one Elkhart county producer having been busy since May. In Steuben county, marl deposits throughout the county are being mapped so that every farmer will have a source of supply near home. Similar work is being done in Kosciusko county. "Limestone can be put on most profitably in the slack period of the year and when the farmers' time is not worth as much as it is during the rush seasons. All must remember that maximum returns from limestone are not received the first year. Profitable crop production on acid soil makes limestone a necessity," said Mr. Ostrander.

every farmer, because every farmer has some hogs and is interested in knowing the best method of handling them, in order to obtain maximum, profits. Three factors in wintering brood sows are being studied to determine effects of treatment of the sows on spring litters through comparing liberal and limited exercise; poor and good rations; and medium and fat condition of animals. Whether hand or self-feeding is better in growing a pig to weaning age is being worked on, and growing and fattening spring pigs for market, is another experiment attracting much interest. Here is being compared the two systems, that of hurrying pigs through to market or growing them cheaply and fattening them in the fall. The value of three forage crops, clover, alfalfa and rape, is being compared in a study on growing and fattening hogs. Different methods of hogging off field corn are being studied with six different lots of hogs. The in-

two of the other big problems. Substitutes for corn for fattening hogs also is being studied. This experiment was undertaken when corn was high and substitutes were necessary.

Age For Egg Production

Some folk have the right kind of fowls, house, and feed them properly, and still don't get eggs early in the winter because their hens are too old. It seldom pays to keep hens for laying after they are 2V& years old. They may give a profit, but younger fowls will give more. Many poultrymen who make a specialty of winter egg production keep only pullets, disposing of even the yearling hens before it is time to put them in the winter quarters. Early hatched pullets, if properly grown, ought to begin laying in October or early November and continue to lay right through the winter. Yearling hens seldom begin laying much before Jan. 1, and older hens not until later. It is the November and December eggs that bring the high prices. The laying breeds should begin laying when from 5 to 6 months old, general-purpose breeds at 6 to 7 months, and the meat breeds at 7 or 8 months. fiHlillTliiltiitintininnifiiiiMliliitMlllllitliiiiitffiiiiii!illMiililillMtinit:i" TANKAGE 60 Protein 1 $55.00 a ton; $2.85 cwt. f 1 OMER G.

Except in accidental cases, hog lice are found only on hogs, and they do not voluntarily leave their natral host, says the United States department of agriculture. When separated from the animal they live only two or three days. The lice pass readily from one hog to another when the animals come in close contact. Practically all cases of infestation occur from contact with lousy animals and not from infected premises. Under reasonably good sanitary conditions pens, corrals, and premises which have

contained lousy hogs are not a source of danger to hogs free from j lice. i As a precautionary measure, how-; ever, and because it is good sani- j tary practice, all small inclosuresl which have contained lousy hogs j should be cleaned and disinfected j before being used for a new lot of j hogs. The litter and manure should

be removed and the floors cleaned, i after which the woodwork and floors should be sprayed with a good disinfectant. The coal-tar-; creosote dips, diluted in accordance ! with instructions on the container, ! are suitable for this purpose.
