MIXED SENTIMENT IN 'FARM CIRCLES SHOWN IN MONTHLY REVIEW WASHINGTON, Oct. 4. Mixed sentiment in agricultural circles gener
ally throughout the country is indl-i cated In the monthly review of the agricultural situation issued by the United States department of agriculture today. In the range, country cat- ; tie raisers are fairly optimistic, and j stockmen are reported to be paying off some old debts this fall. Range '' shortage in the southwest is serious in some regions. Alfalfa prices are higher and the number of sheep is increasing. Cotton is beginning to more to market and growers who have a crop find prices the most encouraging in three years. The main difficulty has been the crop failure; the eastern belt has been badly hit by the boll weevil, and the territory west of the Mississippi has had the worst drought in many years. Sentiment Mixed In the corn belt sentiment is mixed. Present prices of corn are discouraging, but some farmers say they can make money this year in hogs. There is a tendency to take on considerable feeder stock. Wheat growers have been discouraged by low prices, and the crop has come into market rather
rapidly because of necessity for raising cash. Sentiment on the winter
wheat acreage is not yet certain. Farmers in many localities in the
east are pessimistic over the low
prices of their crops. The markets are almost glutted with potatoes, apples and cabbage. Milk prices are low and there is considerable surplus.
Feed is fairly cheap, however, and dairymen are paying fairly good prices
for fall cows. Normal Harvest
Th general outlook is for a normal to heavy harvest of all staple crops except cotton, which has suffered
from adverse weather and insect rav
ages.
The trend of prices received at the
farm by producers up to September
was generally downward. Livestock, as a .class, declined somewhat more
than crops. Farm products as a whole were selling at 13 per cent
above the pre-war average during the
month of August.
Movement of grain to market is fairly heavy, but has been somewhat impeded by lack of cars in certain
sections. Heavy quantities of butter
and cheese have moved into storage,
but storage 6tocks of meat are abnor
mally low. The movement of hog3
and cattle to market wa3 much heav
ier in August of this year than last.
Exports of wheat and cotton, on the
other hand, were much lighter in Au
gust than in the same month last
year.
Basket Lunches for School Children
The basket lunch is harder to plan and prepare than the lunch at home. There are many foods that cannot be included in it, either because they are not good cold or because they can
not be conveniently packed or carried.
Careful planning is necessary to
prevent sameness, and extra care is needed in the preparation of foods that must be packed in small compass and kept for several hours before being eaten.

While he stated that he was not in

banker, he argued that England has
the capacity to pay her debt to the United States and, he continued, "I

In which the United States and England are equally concerned and in which both have the same interest as
creditors. y Points Out Question
The question to be investigated in
connection with the German repara
tions, he said, is not Germany's cap
acity to produce wealth but her cap acity to pay foreign debts. The Ver sailles experts who figured that Ger many could pay 120,000,000,000 of dol
lars in reparations were in error on
that point, he asserted.

CELEBRATION ENDED
WINCHESTER, Ind.. Oct. 4 The three days celebration of the 40th anniversary of the Presbyterian church here was brought to a close Tuesday night with addresses by the Rev. Perry Hopper, of Toledo, Ohio, and
the Rev. Papperman, both former pas
tors here. Music was furnished by the Sunday school orchestra. Many out-of-town persons and former members attended all services. Breeders Elect Officers At a meeting of the Shorthorn
Breeders' association the following officers were elected: Wesley Green, president; Nathan- Shorckey, vicepresident; Ernest Shaffer, secretary-

The divorce case of Ella Mundhenk, venued to the Randolph circuit court from Jay county, wa3 tried before
Judpe A. L. Bale and the plaintiff
granted a divorce and $1,000 alimony. Clevenger Re-Arrested
Sheriff Fisher has received word
that H. O. Clevenger, who was sent to the state penal farm from Randolph county for violating the liquor law, and who recently made his escape, has been re-arrested at his home town,
Palm Beach, Fla. Clevenger former
ly resided in Muncie. He is alleged
to have assisted in driving an auto
mobile containing 10 cases of bonded
gin from Palm Beach, Fla., to Mun
cie. The machine was captured in a
barn near Windsor, west of this city.
many's immense power to produce,"
he continued, "but production by itself is not enough. , She must find a market for her exports and the problem thus becomes one of determining the possible extension of German foreign trade. We must remember that an
increase in her exports will only find
funds for reparations if there is no
corresponding increase in imports.
Payment of her indispensable imports must be the first charge upon the proceeds of her foreign sales and
it is only the balance, the exportable surplus, which is available for repara
tions.
Has No Surplus
Germany has no present capacity to
obtain a surplus from the export of
goods, he argued. While it had been
suggested that the German govern
ment could meet its liabilities if her people were adequately taxed, Mr.
McKenna said he failed to see how
additional taxation can increase for
eign trade and provide a large export
able surplus. The taxes would be paid
in marks, he said, and whether the
marks are derived from avowed tax
ation or from concealed taxation through the use of the printing press,
they are In neither case a currency
which would be accepted in discharge
of foreign liability.
Touching up the French debt to the
United States, in which Great Britain
also is interested as a French credit
or, Mr. McKenna stated that France's
external deb is far too great in relation to International trade possibili
ties. Mewing the situation from the
standpoint of 1914 and peace-time con
ditions, he asserted that it is recog
nizable that France has no trade surplus or reserves of accumulated and exportable wealth to enable her to meet her present external liabilities.
The mere endeavor of France to ex
tend her foreigm sales to the required

KIWANIS STYLE SHOW
WILL OPEN THURSDAY
Presentation of the third semi-an
nual Kiwanis Style Show will be made Thursday and Friday nights under the
direction of Mr. and Mrs. Bert Kolp,
who have staged the two previous
shows vith remarkable success.
Supplemented by Fischer's Exposi
tion orchestra, entertainers extraor
dinary, Mr. and Mrs. Kolp expect this,
the third show, to be presented in a more flourishing manner than either
of the two past shows, which were exceedingly successful.
With a large roster of merchants
displaying their goods or being represented in some manner, the show is to be more extensive than in the past.
Gowns, footwear, men's attire and the latest from fashion's realm will be on display by some of Richmond's lead
ing merchants.
An extra large roster of models is
available this year, each firm having enough to display their various types
of merchandise.
degree would disorganize the trade of
the world, he maintained.
"The inevitable conclusion is," he continued, "that these international
debts are far too great for the ca
pacity of any of the debtor countries
except England. She alone in her ac
cumulated foreign investments has
adequate resources with which to dis
charge her liability to the United
States. Of the others, France has the
greatest resources, but they are, I be
lieve, 'quite insufficient to meet her obligations. The whole subject requires a rational reconsideration by the creditors, who must keep steadily in view the immediate effect of the
payment of these debts on the gen
eral trade of the world. The credito
countries will obtain greater advan
tage from trade prosperity, which will
assure full employment in their lac
tories and workshops than they can
ever receive from the precarious pay
ment of these debts. Others Cannot Pay
Mr. McKenna stated a3 his conclu
sion that England has the capacity to
pay the United States interest and sinking fund on her debt, but that
none of the others debtors is in a po
sition to meet more than a small part
of its external liabilities. In the ex
isting situation in Europe a definite
postponement of any payment by them is desirali '"' "he interests of all the parties, he said" The actual amount
which the other debtors could ulti
mately pay should, as in the case of
Germany, be ascertained by inquiry
Into their exportable surplus at a full
and frank conference between credi
tors and debtors.

Greatest Grape Harvest In Lake Erie Region (By Associated Press) TOLEDO, Ohio. Oct 4. The greatest grape harvest in recent years is being completed throughout the Lake Erie Island region. Picking In most
sections will end in early October. The only grapes being picked now" are the Catawbas, marketing of the Concords, Ives and Clintons having been completed some time ago. The Catawba crop, however, is so large, that every facility for taking care of the late grapes Is being taxed. The boats that have been carrying grapes to market in Cleveland, Toledo, Detroit, and Sandusky, will make their last trips about October 5.

Rations For Baby Chicks . Musi Contain Vitamines LAFAYETTE, Ind., Oct 4. Need of vitamines in baby chick rations and control of bacillary white diarrhoea, a contagious disease affecting small chicks, were subjects considered at the annual state meeting of Indiana poultrymen which opened Tuesday. Baby chicks need vitamines as well as do human babies, said the feed specialist Green foods should be included in the rations. Testing of poultry flocks and chick hatcheries, with state certification of those found disease free, so that baby, chicks may be bought from them without 'fear of infecting a flock, was suggested by one
of the specialists.

Police Working To Clean Up Dayton Murder Mystery
DAYTON, Ohio, Oct 4 Police to
day expect to clear up the mystery surrounding the alleged murder of
Frank Harnish, 42 years old, of Union City, who died Monday from a fractured skull, sustained in a fight the week before.

Portland cement, to meet the exacting specifications of leading engineering societies and the United States Government, must be ground so fine that at least 78 per cent will pass a sieve having 200 wires per linear inch. A silk handkerchief has but 110 threads -per inch an excellent quality of silk dress goods 187 threads. ' The watch in your pocket hardly calls for a more complicated and carefully adjusted process of manufacture than the making of cement. Grinding is only one of the many operations required to make it. Yet in grinding alone, see what is required: The rocks from the quarry, often as big as a piano and heavier, go first into a gigantic Mco2ee mill. It bites at these huge chunks, chips them, and finally crushes them to pieces six inches or so in diameter. Two finer mills follow, one after the other, reducing the stones to the size of coarse sand. After this, they must be ground in a great revolving cylinder half filled with steel balls, until every cubic foot of the rock has been reduced to 14 billion pieces until 85 per cent of them will shake through a sieve that willactually holdwater,asieve with 40,000 holes to the square inch. And all of this is less than half the necessary grinding. The coal must be ground. For the object of all this fine grinding of the raw materials is only that it may be fused into crystalline clinkers. And to fuse it requires pulverized coal or its equivalent. Most plants use pulverized coaL The coal must be ground as fine as the raw stone. Eighty-five per cent of it or thereabouts must go through the sieve that holds water. And that often means two grinding operations. There is still the clinker to be ground. It is glass-hard to begin with. It must be ground first to the fineness of sand, and then ground and reground in another cylinder of steel balls until at least 78 per cent of it will go through the sieve woven finer than silk. Huge bowlders to an impalpable dust. Common coal to an impalpable dust, and finally, after the burning, glass-hard clinker to an impalpable dust. That is the making of cement. And eight heavy grinding operations are required in the process. Grinding it only tme of the lesser heat and power consuming operations in cement manufacture.
