SENTIMENT AGAINST COVERED BRIDGE USE IN CENTER TOWNSHIP

(Special to The Palladium) . CENTER VI LLE, Ind., Oct 14. Considerable sentiment against the continued use of the ancient covered wooden bridges has developed among Center township people and, it is reported, this sentiment is general throughout Wayne county. There are seven covered wooden bridges in Wayne county and all but one have been in service for about 60 years. Four of the seven are under -the jurisdiction of the state highway commission, two of them being on the National road, near Riser's Station, west of CentervUle, and two are on the state highway known as the Ricta-mond-Ft. Wayne pike, being located just south of Fountain City.

Another old wood bridge is located a

short distance northwest of Webster.

The one near Middleboro is to be de

molished within a few months and replaced with a modern steel structure.

The wooden bridge halfway between Webster and Fountain City was erect

ed only four years ago. Will Replace Bridges.

H. H. Horton, county surveyor, has

Informed CentervUle people that only the wood bridge near Middleboro is now In a bad state of repair, but it is his opinion that all of the wood structures would be replaced with either Bteel or concrete structures just as soon as possible. "The old wood bridges were not built to meet modern traffic conditions,'' Mr. Horton said. "It is remarkable that they have stood up 60 well under the heavy strain they have been put to since the advent of the automobile. They require constant repairs." In addition to being a menace to life and limb because of the constant danger that their ancient timbers will collapse under some heavily laden truck, it is pointed out that they have no place on a much used highway

because of their narrow floor space which prevents two cars from passing within them. It is said that five of the seven wooden bridges in the county set at right angles to the roadway, and bridges so constructed always invite accidents, especially at night. To Attend Meeting A number of Center township Republicans are planning to attend the Repblican meeting to be held in Cambridge City next Tuesday night, which will be addressed by Rep. Richard N. Elliott and Judge Raymond S. Springer of Connersville. It Is also probable that a delegation of Center township Republicans will attend the Green's Fork meeting next Thursday night which will be addressed by the same speakers.

comes off with the earth clods when they are lifted. The teeth of all skeletons were In a good state of presenvation, and in one case were exceptionally perfect, every tooth being present and every one perfect even to the roots. None of the teeth in any skeleton show any evidence of decay prior to death. Find Two Bracelets Aside from the skeletons, there was little else of importance discovered, except two copper bracelets of hammered copper, and two ornaments primitive jewelry, made of slate. The bracelets were of copper about the size of No. 9 wire, bent to shape around the wrist with ends slightly overlapping. An oval grave prepared for occu pancy, but with no contents beyond a

few animal bones and ashes, was also

found near the center of the mound

Outside the grave were two deposits of skull fragments, enough to indicate

the presence of two separate and sol

itary skulls, and a femur, which Mi.

McPherson says were part of fragmen

tary burials of bodies which had beei

cremated elsewhere and the bones

brought to this mound.

The mound, which had stood undisturbed since earliest pioneer days until the farmer began to cultivate it in late years, was at first 10 or 12 feet

high, old residents state. It was too

high and land was too plentiful to make it worth while working with the

rest of the level field in the center of which it stands. However with

washing rains and more recent culti

vation, its height has gradually been

brought down to only four and a half

feet in the center. The mound is per

fectly circular. . It is easily visible

from the .New Paris-Greenville Penn

sylvania railroad which skirts the

field in which the mound is foundPresident of Society

Mr. McPherson, who is president of

the Preble' County Historical society

is well acquainted with the officers

of the state historical society and has

their co-operation in his investigations

He uncovered another moufid a few

years ago, near Eldorado, but "found

only cremated remains there.

The remains in the New Paris

mound show some evidence of rela

tionship to the Chillicothe mound

builders, which are examples of the highest early civilization known, says

Mr. McPherson. "State historical society officer are anxious to know

whetier these .mounds were built by

the same tribes and at the same time as, the others. . The bracelets found here and the cremations, both show

strong points of similarity to similar

discoveries in the Chillicothe mounds

but the application of red paint before burial is a custom not found with the

other mound builders."

NEW MARKETING DEAL The Federated Fruit and Vegetable Growers, Inc., la to take over the sales force of the North American Fruit exchange. The federated fruit growers is the new co-operative concern recently launched by the associations for 10 years. . A. R. Rule, who has become manager of the new body, has been, general manager of the fruit exchange for a number of years. He has a trained sales force, is in personal touch with all markets, and is counted on to make the new organization a success from the beginning. Banking interests In New York are depended on to support the farmers. This is one of the main reasons for the selection of New York as headquarters for the executive office. New York City is also the largest exporting center and the federated sales force will start out with a list of almost nine million customers. The field service office will be located in Chicago and there are to be branch sales offices in several large consuming distributing centers. It is an ambitious program and Its carrying out will not only be watched with great interest but is counted on to benefit the grower, distributor and consumer. Southern fruit growers are to be invited to cast in their lot with the new marketing

service. . . I Another Grain Exchanne- ! For more than 20 years Winnipeg has had a monopoly of western Canada's grain trade, handling cash grain, futures and the trade in privileges. Now Winnipeg is to have opposition. The Fort William Sample Market and Produce exchange, which was organized in 1917, has completed its handsome building and because of freedom from war conditions are preparing to open for business along the lines followed in Winnipeg and Chicago. Fort William lies 400 miles southeast of Winnipeg, and with . Port Arthur, nearby, constitutes the shipping points of the Canadian northwest Farmers are to be admitted to membership and an effort made to show

them that the exchange method of

handling grain is to their advantage.

Mixing of grain has not been permitted at Fort William, when the grain is bought In the open market.

It is proposed to sell grm on its

merits, so that the farmers may get

11 the benefits, according to quality.

The Canadian parliament is to be asked to enact new laws to assure the growers better market facilities.

There Are No Substitutes. The Chicago Mercantile ' exchange

is spending a lot of money in the newspapers to tell the public that: "There's no such thing as a substitute for butter and eggs." This advertisement is to encourage a more liberal

of butter and eggs, and to ini-

use

press the people with the idea that

no imitation butter is as good and healthful.

Today's ad goes on to state that: When Mr. Hoover urged every farm

er in the United States to raise more

cows ana chickens, he showed far-

sighted sense and thrifty judgment. It is largely due to his advice that the nation is now provided with an abundant supply of butter and eggs, not during one or two months, but every

month in the year.

This is why butter and eggs are

cheap now, and will continue to be cheap all winter. They are the truest economy because they insure health

A flock of 100 hens produces in egg shells about 137 pounds of chalk annually.

and a well-nourished body and mind," say3 the ad. The Iowa state railroad commission is opposing the application of the carriers for a uniform freight rate on all grains. At the hearing before Examiner H. C. Keene, of the interstate commerce commission, they urged that coarse grains should take a lower rate than wheat,' because of their lower value. It was claimed that the raising of the coarse grain rate to the level of the wheat rate would, on the one hand, depress the price of corn and? oats to the producer, and on the other hand would raise their price to the live stock feeder, with bad effects on the hve stock industry. It was explained that the increased freight costs would be taken out of the grain at central markets and added on to the cost of the buyers and shippers of car lots, bought at such markets by feeders. In reviewing the arguments advanced by the Iowa state railway commission we believe it is standing on logical ground. ' ' Coal at Cambridge

Lorin Ulrich, of Cambridge City,

says there is at least 100 tons of coal in the Cambridge City coal yards at

this time and that he has four cars

rolling his way right now. Mr. Ulrich

says they have quite a lot of. good coke, shipped in from Youngstown,

Ohio, and that it has been in de

mand at $15.75 per ton, delivered.

The report from the elevator at Fountain City is that the manager is

still sitting on the roof of the elevator

in daytime with a spyglass in nand

scanning the tracks to note the first

sign of the coal train which is to

switch in a car or two of coal, for which the demand is now becoming rather insistent. Anthracite coal also has been ordered, and he thinks it will be along in due time, which means a

little later.

He says that wheat again is drib

bling in and that right now he is pay

ing $1 for No. 2. A little No. 3 wheat has come in of late, and for this grade

his price now is 95 cents.

CentervUle reports some Indiana

block coal in the bins and quotes it at J9 at the bin and $9.50 delivered in town. They say they are burning this coal at the elevator and are finding it a good article. Farmers Will Give Corn The terror stricken Greek and Armenian refugees who are now thronging into Greece lacking food and sufficient clothing, have started the relief workers into immediate action to relieve as much of this misery as is humanly possible. Greece is a small nation, having but about 5,000,000 people in the home territory, and has neither the money or other facilities to properly care for the suffering people who are fleeing from their homes

In the territory now allotted to Turkey, j Steps have been taken in Illinois to gather grain from the farmers and the state farm bureau has endorsed the movement to the extent that it is urging the farmers to donate grain and notably corn. The relief workers are also soliciting money and clothing to be gathered and sent across at the earliest possible date. Since the emergency arose, and the destruction of Smyrna, relief workers have' had the task of feeding nearly 600,000 destitute people daily. Corn grits : are in great demand, since It forms the chief part of the refugee's ration. A man who has just returned from "the land of the suffering," says that during last winter the monthly ration for a child was six cups of rice, six cups of beans, and twelve cups of corn grits. This relief worker, Clifford Jackman, of Chicago, says that a bushel of corn will go a long ways, and that the farmer who gives a few bushels will prevent much suffering and many lives. ' This movement to give to aid the suffering will not stop in Illinois, but will quickly spread over the country.

We are assured that our Indiana far

mers will meet this crisis with liberal donations and in the open handed man ner for which the state is noted. The call to do so may now be expected at any time. Egg Circles and Sales. Useless to deny the fact that we have harvested a whaling big crop of eggs since April 1, or that our summer egg prices were much below those of 1921. There are at this writing millions of cases of eggs in cold storage, although many cold storage eggs are sold in all large cities daily. Because of this great crop of eggs, numerous egg circles have been formed here and there for the co-operative marketing of eggs. The most ren;

case coming, under our observation are those of four Wisconsin counties, Jefferson, Portage, Juneau andOconto. where egg circles have now been established, for uniformity of eggs and co-operative selling. These farmers are going on the theory that if all the neighbors in the ring will keep the same breed of chickens, so that the eggs produced will run uniform as to size and color, this will go a long ways toward solving

their marketing problem and will insure better than average prices. This they found cou'd not be done, unless they co-operated and agreed to work with their neighbors along some definite line. J. B. Hayes of the University of Wisconsin is distributing cockerels to members of the egg rings. Two hundred cockerels have been put in the

farmers' flocks in Oconto county. It is believed that the sire is half the flock and the poultry can soon be greatly improved by using well bred cockerels. Mr. Hayes thinks that by first es

tablishing the breed much of the grit in market work can be eliminated. When the farmers in a community alt produce white eggs they have no difficulty in marketing them. It is considered almost impossible to accomplish much in marketing where a community produces whites, browns, light browns and chocolates.

Modern Methods Fail To

Check Maternal Mortality

IBv Associated Press)

WASHINGTON, Oct 14. Maternal mortality is increasing and no progress is being made toward its redaction despite extensive research and development of modern methods. Dr. W. T. Bell of Toronto, pediatrician to the maternal and child welfare bureau of the Ontario provincial board of health, today told the delegates attending the annual convention of the National child hygiene association. Much work remains to be done before the maternal death rate will be lowered, he declared, expressing the belief that ar large percentage of this mortality is preventable. He added that health education through the public nurse, recently inaugurated in Ontario, was expected to aid greatly in reducing the 'maternal death rate.
