WIRELESS MUSICAL

PROGRAM ENJOYED BY FARMERS' GROUP

(Special to The Palladium) SPARTANBURG, Ind., Jan. 20. A musical concert from Pittsburgh heard over wireless telephone, several selections by a six-piece orchestra, a

speech by Everett Hunt, president of the Wayne county farm bureau, a

movie show by the county agent, and

refreshments at the close of the even

ing was the program of entertainment!

ai the reorganization meeting of the farmers' association of Green's Fork township, Randolph county. , The meeting was held in the Spartanburg school building on Thursday evening. An audience of nearly 200 packed the auditorium in which the meeting was held. The talk by Mr. Hunt was a strong argument for still heartier support of the farm bureau that has been given before. That his talk accomplished its object was proved by the new memberships that were added at the close of the evening. The speaker described the farmer's position and the

possible remedies which could be worked out or already have been put Into effect by the farmers' organizations. Wireless Popular Feature The wireless telephone proved quite a popular feature, much interest being shown in it. Music from Pittsburg was "tuned in" at the beginning of the evening, and, in the news items that were given out by the Pittsburg operator between the musical selections, the audience heard an account - of a spectacular Are which had done considerable damage that day, with a number of firemen overcome in fighting it. The fire, which was at Brock- ' ton, Mass., is mentioned elsewhere in .this issue. Later in the evening, the 1 Palladium wireless telephone was heard, and the market reports were copied down for the information of the audience.

Two films, one educational and one comedy, were shown by means of the county motion picture machine, operated by It. A. Fields of Winchester Several orchestral selections and piano duets were given by members of an orchestra, which included Misses Blossom Elliott, Virginia Scott and Dana Wise, Clayton Hunt, Opie Cheno-weth-and John Davisson. Refreshments of sandwiches, ice cream and coffee were served at the close of the evening.

WOOL PRICES PUSH UPWARD ON MARKET

(By Associated Press) i BOSTON, Jan. 20 The Commercial Bulletin tomorrow will say of the wool market: "The wool industry of the country is groping blindly forward, the limited stocks of wool available forcing prices steadily upward on a moderate demand from the mills. Manufacturers are naturally loath to name prices on the heavy weight season's good3 until they have eome idea of what they must base their tariff cost on. "The foreign markets are very buoyant. Some contracting has been reported from Nevada on the sheep's back at 21 to 23 although it is stated that the growers now are asking anywhere from 25 to 30 for their wools and matters have come more or less to an Impasse. ... .

Co-op Elevator Meeting At Centervllle Saturday CENTERVILLE. Ind.. Jan. 20 The

annual meeting of the stockholders of

the co-operative elevator at CenteTvine will be held at the school house, Saturday beginning at 10 o'clock. Reports will be presented as to the business of the last year and five directors elected. At a later meeting the directors will name the staff at the elevator and the exerutive committee of the board. The ladies of the Home Culture club will serve lunch and there will be an afternoon session for the discussion of affairs.

The cashier of the Farmers State bank at College Corner, Ohio, tells us j that they have no complaint whatever to make with regard to business in 1921, either as compared with that done in 1920, or in a general way. "We had plenty of loanable funds at all times," he said, "and have been as helpful as possible in keeping'-, the wheels of business in motion." A very unusual statement with reference to loanable funds was made by the official of this College Corner bank. For instance, he stated that not only did his bank have all the money needed by borrowers, in 1921, but that was true today and had been true for the past 26 years. The only exception being in 1907, in which year their bank found it necessary to borrow to completely supply the demand for loans. With that single exception, he 'said, "the individual resources of the institution had been found ample for all needs during all these years." The deposits of the Farmers' State bank exceed $500,000 on the average,

we are told. Its officials are not looking for any great improvement in the farmer's business this year, but are hoping for the best, judging from their comment on conditions. "We had no bills payable on January 1," is the statement of the cashier. No change was made in the official board at the annual election. Banking at W. Manchester "Compared with 1920 our business fell off a little last year, but not a great deal," states the cashier of the First State bank of West Manchester, Ohio. Cashier Leas believes that more feeding is being done this winter than last, this applying to both hogs and cattle, said he. "Farmers are selling but little," Mr. Leas stated, "and thi3

j is because they don't like going prices.

In consequence business just now is very quiet. "Our farmers are expecting better things in 1922 or at least have that hope, and in this every one else joins," said the cashier. No changes were made in the official staff at the annual election on the 11th inst. Reported From Oxford, Ohio. J. Gilbert Walsh, cashier of the

Farmers' State and Savings bank, at

Oxford, said: "We are not making

any new loans at this time, but ouri

loan account was rather large, in fact there was an excessive demand for money during most of 1921. Our deposits have held up fairly well, and are running between $360,000 and $375,000, as a rule. Farmers are not selling, as grain prices do not suit them and no one blames them for waiting for better prices. Most of

them are looking hopefully forward to better prices and better times. No

changes were made in our staff or

directory at the late annual election. Business is rather quiet at this time."

Paul C. King, cashier of the bank at New Madison, states that while business isn't rushing it may be considered good, in view of prevailing conditions, the country over. He say3 the demand for money has fallen off some since the holidays, and that all old officials and directors were re-elected at the annual meeting. Rapidflre Farm Trading Most anything may happen in this changing world, and may happen in record time, even in the trading of farms, elevators, stocks of goods, etc. A comparatively short time ago. as

measured in weeks, two Richmond men, as the story runs, came into possession of a tidy farm in the Williamsburg section. In short order this farm was traded for an elevator located north of Winchester. The next move, as we are told, was the trading of the elevator property for an apartment house in Indianapolis. The next thing, as we learn, was the trading

of the apartment house for a farm

on the Washington road, a few miles southwest of Green's Fork, then, presto, the Washington road acreage was traded to the owner of a hardware stock in Brookville, Ind. Just how far the hardware stock covers the transaction, or what the "boot" in this and

man is figuring to put a tenant on the place, unless perchance he finds a buyer before he himself comes into possession of the 268-acre Washington road farm, on March 1. As to the hardware stock, unless sold at private sale at an early date, it will be put up at auction. Who Made the Money? The man who dropped in at this office and told the above story was not a principal in any of the transactions, but he assured us he had the facts, as stated. When we asked him who were the winners in this series of deals, also how many dollars in hard

cash were actually handled in the odd

settlements, he threw up his hands. He didn't know. What Ije did know, he said, was that these busy traders had done a lot of swapping in a hurry, to which we agreed.

install Green's Fork

, Grange Officers Tonight SPARTANBURG, Ind., Jan. 20. The new Green's Fork Grange, organized last fall in the Spartanburg community, will meet to install new officers Friday night. This meeting will be held in the new Grange hall, the first meeting in the regular quarters of the organization. Installation of officers will be conducted by T. E. Kenworthy, state gatekeeper.

in Indianapolis in February, to be at

tended by women delegates from each county in Indiana, when it is hoped the organization will be formed. Perry Crane, secretary of the federation, said the idea ofa women'3 organization has been in the minds of the officers for quite awhile. "Many problems confront the wives of formers which such an organization could help solve," Mr. Crane said. "We believe that through the combined efforts of the farmers and their wives the federation will render a greater service to the state. The women's branch will not be an auxiliary but a part of the federation itself." A plan for the 1922 program of cooperation between the Purdue extension department and the state farmers' federation, by conference with Purdue authorities, was drawn up and will be submitted to the directors also. It recommends that the county

agent assist in farm bureau member

ship drives, coach solicitors, outline

methods of campaigns, attend meet

ings, and tell of the accomplishments 6f county, state and national organizations, but that he shall not handle money nor solicit memberships himself. Outline Activities Township units are urged to devote their activities to production, local marketing and community welfare problems. State and national organ-

need for such an agency and give in-

i formation as to how it should be

developed." , Wayne Seeks Women The Wayne county farm bureau always has admitted women to equal membership with the men, and in Webster township they take an important part in all work of the; association. Special inducements for women to enroll as members have been extended also by Washington and Clay

lownsnips. In the membership campaigns and project work of the farm bureau, to which Purdue, according to the statement, has given its approval, the method approved has been that followed in this county.

URGES LEGION (Continued from Page One.) a watchful eye on the Veterans' Bureau to see. that it maintains efficiency, Mr. Sprague said, and added:' "We are tired of the excuses that

whose mistakes were ften made be

cause they had to feel their way. The members should not merely do as well, Jbut ten times better than their predecessors. But they will not do so unIVss the individual men who are charged with responsibility are kept interested, on their toes, and keenly alive to- their duties."To Discuss Census I'lans of Hanford MacNider, national ommander, for taking a census of all lornief service men were to be discus9d. At the same time the American Le

gion auxiliary1, of which Mrs. Lowell F. Hobart, of Milford, O., is national president, is holding the first meeting of its national executive committee. Included in the census plan, personal interviews will be sought with former service men in regard to disability status and preference in manner of adjusted compensation, it was said. Provision to ascertain the number of former service men who are financially able to lend to a rotating fund the money they will receive in adjusted compensation will also be considered in the conference. Five officials of organized labof have been designated by Samuel Gompers of the American Federation of Labor to attend the conference at the suggestion of Commander MacNider.

by Mrs. Mary Preston Cooking Expert and Food Analyst I wonder if all men Judge the quality of any thing by its price? A neighbor of mine asked me the other day: . "Mrs. Preston, you say that a better baking powder' than Heekin's cannot be made. Yet the cost is low. Now suppose someone made a baking powder that was so good it could sell for $1.00 a pound. What would the difference be between that and Heekin's Baking Powder?" I told him the difference would be that the manufacturer would make a much larger profit than The Heekin Company does. But I suggested that he buy a can of Heekin's for his wife and ask her opinion of it. "Oh," he said, "she uses Heekin's." And when I asked him how she liked it, he replied, "Why she says it's the best baking powder she ever used. And it costs much less than any baking powder that even approaches Heekin's in quality." Every woman will get successful baking results with Heekin's. It is a full-strength baking powder that keeps its strength until the last spoonful is used. No baking powder can be purer. There are no foreign ingredients added to create an unnatural effervescence or to give a false impression of quality. It is the favorite with thousands of women. Heekin's is guaranteed. For if anything you bake using Heekin's does not turn out to your entire satisfaction, the price of the full can of baking powder and the price of the ingredients in whatever you bake will be returned to you. Simply list the prices and send with your name and address to The Heekin Company, Cincinnati, Ohio. Buy a can today and use t you'll like Heekin's.
