AMERICA'S NATIONAL DISH MAY BE PORK, SAYS MARKET CHIEF
SIMPLICITY IS KEYNOTE OF NEWEST WEDDING COSTUMES

fBy Associated Fre) i XOLUMBLS. Ohio, May 29. What Is the national dish of America?
It soon will be pork, if the present rate of consumption keeps up, accord ing to George U. Marvin, chief of th Ohio Division of Markets "More pork Is being eaten now than ever before," Marvin said today. "Th increase .In consumption during the last few years has been amazing-
Shipments from the west and central j
west, including Ohio, to eastern markets are growing larger each year. One day during the last week, 8,000 hogs were sent from Chicago stock yards to purchasers In New York and the New England states. Eight thousand hogs, butchered and prepared for the table will furnish food for an exceedingly large number of persons." "It is not difficult to find an answer to the query as to why pork has pop
ularized itself." Marvin said. "Hotel proprietors and restaurant owners, a ; well as housewives, will tell you that ' the appetite is satisfied with a less j amount of pork than the other kids of
meat. Therefore, with price comparatively the same as beef, the eating of pork is more economical.'' Time of Highest Price
1 ne nignest pnce ior porn prevails in April and September, according to j a survey made by Marvin, of figures; for the last eleven years. The aver- j age for April for the last 11 years, he' raid, has been $11.55 a hundredweight. and for September $11.87. The aver-! age for June has been $11.32, and for October $10.97. The cause for thn'
drop in prices, following April and September, is brought about by fa'l pigs coming on the market during the
latter part of May and early June, and j
spring pigs being placed for sale in October, following the harvesting of corn. Marvin eaid. "The 11 years from which these averages are taken include the years of the war, when costs soared to dizzy heights on everything," Marvin continued. "When that Is recalled, it becomes more surprising that th price now prevailing, of from $10.25 to $10.75 is maintained. The raisers of hogs owe the American people a debt of gratitude because of their fondness for pork, since because of it, they are receiving more for their product than they otherwise would."

In Fertilizer Costs
I Purdue, although the university ad-
jmita that it makes good hay. The j letter on this subject goes on to say that Johnson grass is already estabI lished in Indiana as a serious weed, jand continues as follows: "It is known to be troublesome as far north as Vigo county, particularly ;in the vicinity of Terre Haute, where 'the farmers contend that it is one of (the worst weeds in the county. For j this reason farmers who may be contemplating sowing Johnson grass as a
nay crop are warned that the plant is a dangerous weed and a menace to profitable agriculture."
GENEVA, New York. May 29. A report of an investigation in fertilizer costs, just published, by the New York agricultural experiment station, shows a marked tendency toward a leturn to pre-war conditions in quality of materials, composition of mixtures and costs of plant food. The investigation on which the statement is based took into consideration the changes in costs and analyses of fertilizers before, during and iifter the war. A decrease in cost from 33.1 cents in 1919 to 17.6 in 1921
Is shown, with an increase In the same -period, in the . plant food in average! ? analysis from 12.09 per cent in'1915; to 14 2 per cent in 1921.

Richmond streets overflowed with Ohio cars on Saturday; town cars and farm cars, many of them hailing from as far as 30 miles away. An inspection of license numbers will show that a whole lot of Ohio people visit Richmond every Saturday, and in fact every day, but the closing Saturday of the Sunday campaign simply jammed

CULVER MILITARY ACADEMY. CULVER, Ind.. May 29. Holding up his left hand and right foot, Carroll Shaffer, general manager of the Chicago Evening Post, Saturday took the oath of office as president of the Indiana Society of Chicago. The inauguration of the new president, attended by ceremonies extraordinary, marked the close of a gala day the annual summer frolic of Hoosier exiles on home soil. Mr. Shaffer becomes the youngest president ever elected by this famous society, composed of celebrated Indi-

The Hundred-Bushel Class
To grow 100 bushels of corn to the-
acre is more than a feat of skill; it is a business proposition. In proof of this assertion, crops workers of the Ohio State university, who have just analyzed the accounts of 33 farmers, participants in last year's HundredBushel Corn Ciub contest, report: That the seven farmers who "made the club" by raising over 100 bushels
of shelled corn to the acre on each of 10 acres did so at a growing cost of 34 cents per bushel. Growing cost is a term used to take in all charges except harvesting expense. Eleven other contestants had yields above 85 bushels to the acre. Their

Open windows and doors; the fresh air will cool the house and benefit the

Israel township, in the southwestern corner of Preble. C. C. McCreary, of Israel, who gets his mail out of Camden, arrived in town in the forenoon, accompanied by his folks. It happens that both he and his son are interested in radio and are planning to install a receiving set in the home. This very

in the habit of dropping m at tne palladium office, daily to see the wireless plant and to talk "radio" with the operator. Favors Federal Control. Arthur Capper says he considers federal control of the grain exchanges as being even more necessary than federal supervision of the packers and meat industry. Moreover, he says that
the supreme court decision invalidating the Capper-Tincher act probably means another big fight in congress to pass a bill which will hold water and
also regulate transactions in grain. The senator is now at work drafting a new bill, which he says he will promptly introduce. Mr. Capper concludes by stating: "I shall not let up until I have a law that will give producer, consumer, miller and all a square deal in the big markets and that will put the grain

"Well, I guess I'll knock off early today and go home." That's an expression you hear rather frequently around the office. But women in the home don't often hear: "Well, I guess I won't go to work till noon." A man must be at the offfice when business starts; then it's sometimes safe to let it take care of itself for a while. A conscientious man is under great pressure to be at the office on time in the morning. No matter how pressing his own business may be he must get the office business under way "by the clock" He takes up his own affairs when he has gotten his employer's under way and by that time it is evening paper time. So, if your "Advertisement" is one that invites consideration and discussion you naturally place it in the evening paper. The Richmond Palladium "The Newspaper that Everyone Reads"
