The Farm and By William R. The farmers of Franklin and New Garden townships have been circularized by the presidents of the townships with relation to the new live stock shipping association at Fountain City. The circular letter states that Charles Gifford, Fred Mitchell and Toney Strong are the directors and that Ben Wright, of Fountain City, will manage the shipping. Mr. Wright, the letter states, "will get a percentage for his services in listing, loading and shipping;" also that every car of stock shipped will be duly insured, "so that if you lose an animal in transit you will be paid for it." The letter is signed by Raymond Farst, president of Franklin, and George Myers, president of New Garden township. Those Grand Champion Steers John Hubly's grand champion steers at the International sold for 40 cents 'per pound at auction, at Chicago, and i vai iui was aiviuea ueiween iwu market concerns at Washington and Boston.

Colorado won the award for grand champion bull at the International with Kinklivington King, a bull of the Milking Shorthorn breed, and owned by the Bowvus farms at Denver. Corn Was King in 1919 The census bureau, dealing only with 1919 crops and prices, claims that corn is still king, and places its money value at the head of 20 principal crops. Farmers who recall the money received for their corn all during 191: and for the crop of that year during that fall and until the crop of 1920 came on the market, doubtless will agree and will admit that corn "was" king. Like this writer, thev mav have doubts as to the crop of 1921 figuring! The Woman's CALENDAR Dec. ti. Art. Dee. 13 Music. Dec. 13. Civics.

FORMER LOCAL GIRL EARNS LAURELS IN KANSAS CITY DEBUT Mis. Leon Ilinkle. of Kansas City, Mo., who was formerly Miss Catherine Ensminger, of this city, this season made her debut in a recital at the Hotel Muehlebach in Kansas City. She Mrs. itinkie visited in tins cay last summer with Mr. and Mrs. Adam H. Bartel and Mr. and Mrs. F. W. Fledderjohn when on her way to Schroon Lake, N. V., where she has been studying and coaching in the summer with Oscar Seagle. She is a sister of Mrs. John Fledderjohn, of Indianapolis.. Her debut in Kansas City, Mo., which was made on Nov. 8, evoked the following comment from the Kansas "Mrs. Leon Hinkle, a young soprano of marked talent, made her debut last night in a recital at the Hotel Muehlebach. before an audience warmly enthusiastic. It. was justifiable enthus iasm, for Mrs. Hinkle has a voice of j limpid sweetness, evenly developed and employed with freedom. She has, in addition, a naturally charming style and a llaming temperament.

LARGE CROWDS HEAR 2 REVIEW CONCERTS; CONTEST NEXT FRIDAY Much interest has been manifested in the Music Memory contest numbers which have been played and explained during the past six weeks under the general supervision of the Richmond Community Service, and the review concert which was given at the Coli seum Friday night by various musical organizations and musicians of the city, was well attended. Two concerts were given Friday, one in the afternoon for the school children of the city, and one at night tor the adults of the city, although everyone wishing to attend was admitted to the concerts both in the afternoon and evening.

RICHMOND PALLADIUM AND

The Farmer Sanborn so high in the scale of royalty, unless! prices shall very liberally advance from present quotations. It is conceded, of course, that prices of all grains, cotton and livestock are lower than at any time in the last two years. Therefore, it is possible! that in some future summary corn will be found to have maintained its . relative supremacy, owing to the size of the crop grow'n this year and regardless of loss' by mold and the great shrinkage in price. Over $1 per Bushel The Washington report for 1919 gives the total values of the 20 leading crops as aggregating about $13,750.000,000, of which corn is credited with a total value of $3,507,797,102. Next to corn came hay and forag", $2,523,000,000; cotton and cotton seed, $2,355,000,000, followed bv wheat at $2,074,000,000, and oats with a valua-; tion of but $855,000,000. It will be! observed that the corn crop of 1919 was figured at a little better than per bushel. Fear the Packers. The department of justice committee at Washington in considering the advisability of a modification of the. court decree affecting the packers. Numerous witnesses are present to protest at the hearing and are expressing a fear that the "Big Five" meat packers "will obtain control of the distribution of all food products, if permitted to re-enter the grocery business." The wholesale grocery trade of the country is almost unanimous in its fight against modification of the decree. A St. Louis man said: "The real and vital issue at stake is whether the government desires to foster independent and competetive business or whether it intends to sanction monopoly." Our farm readers will remember the fight made to separate the meat trade trom all side lines, not a real par of that business, as considerable space was devoted to this subject when the fight was on. Club Notes the Public Art gallery. The annual concert by the Earlham Music department is one of the special features of the Woman's club program each year. Announcement has been made that the customary Christmas recital will not be given by the Music department of the Woman's club at Christmas time this year. The recitals, which were instituted by the Music Study club and later carried on by the Music department, are usually composed chiefly of organ and vocal numbers. Instead of having the recital at Christinas time this year two organ recitals have been arranged for the winter season which are to occur some time after the first of the year. It is intimated that a change is pending in the date for the program by the Earlham college program and that it will probably be given as an evening program. Members of the club are asked to watch for fun her announcement concerning the program. Literary Department Beginning with its next meeting. Jan. the Literary department of the Woman's club will hold its sessions i'ti stated on behalf of the general music committee, that he was very much pleased with the attendance at. the conceits and greatly appreciated the help that has been offered by the various musical organizations and soloists of the. city.

WHEAT IS ADVANCED

BY DOMESTIC REPORT OF LOW WINTER CROP By Associated Press) CHICAGO. Dec. 3 Wheat has ad vanced in price this week ow ing largely to estimates indicating that the condition of the domestic winter cron is the lowest ever reported. Compared with a week ago, wheat prices th'v morning showed 1 cents to 2J2 cent ; gain, with corn unchanged to ll cen;lower, oats, unchanged to one-half tc five-eighth cents dow n, and provision -varying from 12 cents decline to e rise of $1.10. At times the wheat market di played activity on a large scale, wit!; a material increase of trade from the outside. Bullish sentiment was firs! stimulated by reports that smallne.-s of the rice crop in Japan and China would cause buying of wheat for tho. countries. Heavy falling off in th estimated exportable surplus of Aus tralia was also given special attention It was only, however, when remark able Kansas crop figures were pub lished and later when a leading authority here suggested that the Unit ed States winter crop, taken as k whole, would be reduced to 475.000.00" bushels as against 544,000,000 busheN last year that the more decided gain in price for the week were affected On the other hand, rains in Texas and Kansas as well as in Southern Argentina tended more or less to ease the market again as the week drew to a close. Predictions that colder weather would bring about larger receipts of corn were burdens on the value of corn and oats. Pork jumped much higher owing to scantiness of the stock on hand. Lard and ribs, though, were but little changed. r Everyday Ad-Ventares That's What You Call ServiceWhen the children have begun carrying on their annual correspondence with Santa Claus addressed to "The North Pole, care of Mother" and you notice that their wants seem to cover a wider and wider range each year So much so, that you're rather "stumped" to know where to turn to get some of the things that Tom and Billie and the little girls have tried t0 impress on Santa's memory, and when you turn over the "mail" to your husband, he savs. "Well here's enough shopping "to keep us busy till Christmas!
