LINCOLN AND THE KAISER ] As a striking illustration of the difference between Americanism and Imperialism, an observing, reader contrasts letters written} ! by President Lincoln and the late i kaiser. The letters concerned al- j most precisely the same subject; .both had given their sons in war.; From the kaiser to a German] , mother: His majesty, the kaiser, hears: that you have sacrificed nine] sons in defense of the Fatherland; ;in the present war. His majesty ; is immensely gratified at the| fact, and in recognition is pleas-. :ed to send you his photograph: with frame and autographed sig-] i nature.” From Lincoln to Mrs. Bixby, ■ Boston, Mass.: “I have been shown in the files rof the war department a state- | ment of the adjutant general of Massachusetts that you are the mother of five sons who died gloriously on the field of battle. I feel how weak and fruitless must be any words of min? which . should attempt to beguile you from the grief of a loss so overwhelming. But I cannot refrain from tendering to you the consolation that may be found in the thanks of tlje Republic they died to save. I pray that our heavenly Father may assuage the anguish of your bereavement, and leave you only the cherished memory of the loved and lost, and the solemn pride that must be yours to have laid so c stly a sacrifice upon the altar of freedom. Very sincerely and res pectfully, Abraham Lincoln.” —.—o —. Bl BY ELEPHANT DIES Philadelphia, Pa.—Mary, the IS-month-old baby African elephant, which arrived at the Philadelphia zoo May 7. is dead.

4-YEAR OLD BOV HAS BEARD . .— Moscow - Russia has discovered the world’s\ wonder child -a I boy aged four years and ten , months, whonas the strength of a fully-grown man, but the mental faculties of a child. He has a deep’ bass voice and a fullv-de- | veloped mustache and beard. He was born at Vladivostok as a normal baby of normal parents, ] but after his first year began to 1 mature at an astounding rate I The wonder child has now been brought to Moscow, where a spel cial assembly of doctors has been i called by the Moscow Society of ] Physicians to examine his case. ] Meanwhile an operation to extract the thyroid w pancreatic glands in an endeavor to restore normality has been decided on. The “subject,” who stands about three feet high, toddles like a child, but has fully-devel-oped muscles. Similar cases to that of the Russian child are by no means rare. It is on record that the j brother of a Greek king was so abnormal in his development that he was doing a man’s work, had married, and was the father of a family when he died at the age of 7, A boy bcm in England in 1741 developed so rapidly that he wa| actino as a farm laborer at the r.gc of 5 and was as strong as the average man. The general opinion among doctors is that the Russian child is not likely to five to age. oLOWER FREIGHT RATES Washington,* June 6.—The Hoch resolution, looking to a general downward revision of railroad freight rates, especially in regard to farm products, was passed today by the House.

CROP REPORT FOR INDIANA •’ The production ot winter wheat this year in Indiana will be 7.621,000 bushels less than the amount ; harvested last year, if the amount 1 estimated on June 1 condition is < maintained at harvest time accord- ’ ing to the report of Geo. G. Bryant. ] statistician for the co-operative crop • reporting senice, issued today. The : report also shows an Increase in the acreages devoted to oats, barley and ■ tame hay crops over last year, as well as in total production of these crops. The report follows: “The condition of winter wheat in . Indiana on June 1. was 77 per cent of normal, indicating a total production of 26.567,000 bushels.at this time. Last year’s June 1 estimate indicated ( a crop of 32,406.000 bushels, but the final outturn amounted to 34,188.000 bushels. Weather conditions this spring have been favorable generally, but winter damage was heavy, especially in the southwestern portion of the state. Fields more or less spotted in all sections, but the best fields are in the northern part of the state. Some damage by Hessian fly was reported frvm the southwestern section. The area seeded to oats in Indiana shows an increase of 2 per cent over last year and amounts to 1,774,000 acres. The condition of the crop on June 1. was 89 per cent of normal and indicates a total production of 59,207,000 bushels. Last year’s harvest amounted to 48,692,000 bushels and the five year average is 59,088.000 bushels. While weather conditions during the past month have been favorable, much of the crop was sown late and the top growth is short for this time of the year. The stand is good but in low places plants are beginning to look yellow. The barley acreage in Indiana - hows an increase of 5 per cent ec.npared with last year and is naw estimated at 32,000 acres. The condition June 1, was 80 per cent of normal and indicates a total production of 704.000 bushels, compared with last year’s final estimate of 690,000 bushels. The condition of rye in Indiana on June 1 was 87 per cent of normal, on which figure a total production of 3,661,000 bushels is forecast at this time, compared with 4,186,000 bushels the final estimate for last year. The crop is headed out in all sections of the state, but is ripening slowly because of weather conditions and cutting will be delayed somewhat. The condition of the apple crop in Indiana on June 1. was 64 per cent us normal, compared with 77 per cent last year. The main part of the crop, however, will be produced in orchards that have been well cured for this spring. The condition of ta;ne hay in Indiana on June J. was 86 per cent of normal and wild hay 89 per cent of normal. The condition of the principal varieties of tame hay are as follows: timothy, 89 per cent; clover. 81 per cent; mixed timothy and clover, 87 per cent; and alfalfa, 86 per cent. The condition of pastures on June 1, was 90 per cent of normal. The condition of pears on June 1. was 53 per cent of normal; blackberries and raspberries showed a condition of 87 per cent and home gardens 69 per cent. The percentage cf farm labor supply is now 97 per cent of the need and seems to be getting easier all the time. 117 MILES PER HOl tt Altoona. Pa.. June 12—Earl Cooper, wheeling his new Studebaker Special ia a test flight around the Ifc mile Speedway here today, turned a lap in 38.2 seconds, a rate of 117.8 miles an hour. The veteran racing star, winner of second place and leading nu>st of the way in tke 500-mile Indianapolis race. Ashy 30. was declared a formidable contender for the $25,000 purse in the second annual international championships here on June 14. Cooper admits he has never driven at such terrific speed in all his 14 ] years of racing, during which he has] participated in more than 1,000 races on speed tracks and great road events. “There Is no limit to a racer’s speed.” grinned Cooper today, “pro- < vided his ear is. right and he vaea ' his head on the turns.

THE TEN-MILLIONTH MODEL “T” FORD CAR S Detroit, Mich., June 4.—A new and outstanding achievement in the automobile industry of America was attained here today when the ten-millionth Model T Ford car left the final assembly 1 in the Highland Park Plant of the Ford Motor Company. ; aThe motor bearing the number 10,000,000 was completed this morning, and reached the car as- 1 sembly line early this afternoon, md was assembled into a touring I car, the most popular of all Ford body types. , In celebration of having attained a 10,000,000 psoduction record, the company announces that Ford Car No. 10,000,000 will make a coast to coast trip as signifying the nation-wide popularity of the Ford Car and its appeal to every class of driver. The car will be shipped to New York within a day or two and leaving there will be driven across the country to San Francisco. The Lincoln Highway has been selected at the official route of travel and stops will be made •>t most all the towns along the line. Frank Kulick, who years ago attained fame and broke many records as the pilot of Ford racing cars, will be at the whe’el cf the ten-millionth Ford, during the trans-continental trip. Model “T” Ford cars are todav in use in ievery country on earth and the unusual success which has attended the Ford Motor Company dates principally, from 1908, when the Model “T” was developed and first introduced on the market. The company was among the first to adapt the unit power plant and the left hand drive control, and it was the originator of such fundamental principles as the removable cylinder head, three-point motor suspension and torque tube drive, all incorporated. in the Model “T” and which have since been generally adopted in the automotive industry. The correctness of these basic features has been strikingly proven by the fact that in the entire ten-million production while improvements have constantly been made, there never has been any deviation from the original principles of the Model “T ’. Previous to the time that the Model “T” w w as introduced the comnany had built and sold approximately 25,000 Ford cars of other models. The first Model “T” was completed October 1, 1908, and it was seven years later Dec. 10, 1915, when Motor No. 1.000,000 was produced. Since then, under an ever increasing demand, production has steadily grown until a new output record was established in turning out the last million cars in 132 working days. ’ o MILKWEED AND POKEROOT / — * The recent discovery that destructive diseases of cantaloupes and cucumbers can be controlled by destroying milkweed and; pokeroot in the field and nearby i fence rows and waste places isjj of considerable importance to Indiana growers, says A. A. Han- ; sen, of the Purdue University ; Agricultural Extension staff. ]’ Both common milkweed and I] pokeroot harbor the destructivej] diseases known as white pickle ! ] in cucumbers and an un-named | j trouble in canteloupes that is i characterized by the production}] of runty, ill-flavored melons. The! virus that causes these two dis-j eases lives from year to year on J pokercot and wilkweed and is carried from the weeds to the J crop by plant lice and the strip-1] ed cucumber beetle. The des- ] j truction of the weeds is the solution of the problem. | Pokeroot can usuallv be grubbed cut. The best time to do | the work is following rain when | the ground is soft, since there isi| then less liklihood of leaving | nieces of the root in the soil. | Milkweed is more difficult to destroy on account of the running roots. The use of knife cultivators has been found to be effective against the milkweed. In fence rows and waste places, cutting the shoots once a week in order to starve the roots is an effective method of eradicating milkweed. } Saturating the plants with waste motor oil has also destroyed the i weed.

IT IS SERIOUS Sonw> Syracuse People Fail to' Realize the Seriousness of a Bad Back The constant aching of a bad back. The weariness, the tired feeling. ( The pains and aches of kidney ills. May result seriously if neglected. Dangerous urinary troubles often follow. A Syracuse citizen shows you what to do. George D. Hursey, farmer, Huntington St., says: “Mornings my back was so lame and sore, I had to get out of bed carefully. I found it hard to lift, for my back gave out. I had pounding pains across my kidneys and these organs acted so pften, my rest was broken at night. I used Doan’s Pills and they cured me.” Price 60c at all dealers. Don’t simply ask for a kidney remedy —get Doan’s Pills—the same that Mr. Hursey had. FosterMilburn Co., Mfrs., Buffalo, N. Y.—Advertisement. „ o BUSINESS REVIVAL A business revival in the latter half of this year has been forecasted by an unusually large number of industrial leaders, bankers and economists. They do not regard the present slowing down process as serious, but rather as a passing phase which followed naturally the expansion of industry during the spring. By some it has been called a breathing spell, anticipating increased business. The excellent condition of the country’s banks and public utilities will be an important factor in business revival. o Many Have Appendicitis Don’t Know It Much so-called stomach trouble is really chronic appendicitis. This can often be relieved by simple glycerine, buckthorn bark, etc., as mixed in Adlerika. Most medicines act only on lower bowel but Adlerika acts on BOTH upper and lower bowel, and removes all gasses and poisons. Brings out matter you never though was in your system.
