ONION CROP IS BADLY HURT Onion growers are suffering; heavy loss in the plight* of their crop. A few weeks aA the onion harvest promised ®do„well. but the heavy and fqpqßnt* rain, • together with the hot followed, burned up the vegetables in the ground, and many fields have been abandoned, as-j ter much money and labor had been expended on their care. This will be a total loss to the grower. Chester Wiley, living neat Kimmell is one of the losers in thia section, although Theo Wright, Jasper Miller am Harvey Corey have also sustain ed severe losses. Mr. Wiley put out fifty-five acres to onions and j had a small army of young folks at good wages weeding them, and of course felt rather blue when he saw his crop wither and spoil in the hot sun. Prominent onion growers and. buyers in this section of the state in discussing the situation, declare that the prospect for an onion crop is the poorest now in twenty-five years. Over m Jasper county there will be no crop; at all. Onions are now quoted at $3.50 per 100 pounds. INJURED BY MAD BULL I. G. Rookstool, near Oswego, was injured Monday morning when he was attacked by a mad bull which he was leading Jo a water trough. He was knocked to the ground and saved from death by his wife, who drove the infuriated creature away with a pitchfork, after Mr. Rookstool had been dragged about 50 feet and crushed against a fence. Four ribs were broken and he suffered internal injuries, which may prove fatal. A NOTH ER GOLF COU RSE The Werts farm, on the south shore of Lake Wawasee, adjoining Ideal Beach on the east, is being converted into the Boulevard Addition to Ideal Beach by the Mitchell interests of Chicago, which purchased the tract last spring. The land fronting the south side of the road is being platted into lots and a golf course is projected for the portion ip the rear, it is stated. - o —— SQUIRREL SEASON OPENS The open season for squirrel hunting began Friday. August 1. and continues up to. and including November 30. There is no limit to the number of these animals that may be killed by hunters during the open season. A heavy "crop" is reported and Syracuse nimrods have been hunting on open ground. - —o GASOLINE TAX COLLECTION The July collection of the Indiana gasoline tax yielded a revenue to the state of $459,485.15, Charles C. Benjamin, deputy in charge of the gasoline tax collection in the state auditor’s office announced. The July collection is for gasoline sgld during the month of June. — — KILLS BIG RATTLESNAKE A. T. Griffith, working on the state highway, killed a rattlesnake 31 inches long, in Kosciusko county. It had seven rattles and a button. Griffith said he took no chances in killing the reptile “because there’s no snakebite remedy in the county.” o— CASE CONTINUED The case of the people against Otto Rench. charged with assault upon the person of Wayne Mason, has been continued until Saturday, Aug 16.

INDIANA’S LIGHTED ROADWAY TERMED BEST Preparations are being made to "tell the world” that Indiana possesses, in«the ideal section of the Lincoln highway, the finest example of modern highway consti notion on the face of the earth. Built with the utmost care, from the plans of a collaboration of skilled engineers, and illuminated at night in a remarkable manner by a particularly efficient highway lighting unit, it should last through the centuries rivalling the famous roadways built by the Romans of old. The Lincoln Highway Association proposes to see to it that tourists’ agencies in every’ foreign country are made acquainted with this feat of road building. It is expected that visitors to America frpm abroad will come here in most instances with considerable fore-knowledge of the ideal section and as many such visitors as possible will be induced to ride over it. Great expectations are based upon the lighting of the ideal section, and eventually of the highway in general, because with the modern highway lighting unit it becomes possible to move much traffic by night, and thus relieve some of the day-tirne congestion. The lighting of the ideal section is afforded by forty-four Novalux highway lighting units, the unit developed by illuminating engineers of the General El■••trie Company about two years ago. just at the time the actua. ♦(instruction of the ideal section was being laid out. The units are snaced 250 feet apart alone the ideal section, in Lake CoUnt’ about thirty miles south of vhicago, and about two and a hall miles in length. \ The illumination is declared to be truly remarkable, in that the i light is thrown exclusively on i the roadway, leaving the countrywide on either hand, fields or 'troves or whatever might be tn? landscape, perfectly dark. . It is liteiallv a picture of a silvery ribbon of light extending on>wc -l through the night. o, * —- FOR SALE A fishing motor b at. E. H. Neumeyer, Vawter I Bark. Phone 669. 15-1-t

Stone, president of the Brotherhood of Locomotive Engineers, perhaps the strongest union in America, proposes to abandon detailed direction of union affairs 'and devote his time to the banking and financial activities of the ■ Brotherhood, which now controls : five large banks, and contemplates establishing others.. Labor has now established I twenty-five banks in the United States and is actively planning Ito open ten more. It is taking ’ up real estate and building on a large scale. It is invading other business and financial fields. And it has ambitions to extend such activities as rapidly as its capi tai, ability and experience will ; permit. Do High Finance and Big Business object? Not at all. The , largest investment institution in Wall Street recently joined a la- • bor bank in handling a large bond i issue. The Armour and ‘Other ; leading grain corporations in Chicago are offering to sell out, lock, stock and barrel to farm cooperative organizations, so that our grain growers may be enabled to do their own marketing of their own crops. Utility companies are rapidly becoming owned by their customers. Almost every progressive industrial corporation is making it easy for its ! wage-earners to become owners lof its stock, and the day is already in sight when wage-earn-ers will acquire control of certain important enterprises u they keep on as they are now doing" While, in its strict sense, this may be classed as communism,” it is a species that will be endorsed by all classes of Americans. ■ o— Journal w<»nt-ads are invest ments that pay dividends.

MILK AS A FOOD t Milk has long been recognized as one of the most important foods, not. only because it contains all the elements for body growth and repair in an easily digestible form, but because, as we now know, it is only from milk that the necessary amount of lime for the /proper growth and development of the teeth can be obtained without overeating. To obtain the same amount of lime contained in one quart of milk, it would be necessary to eat twenty-five pounds of beef or one hundred slices of wheat bread, or eighty medium sized notatoes. This shows how difficult it is to obtain the necessary amount of lime from other food sources than milk. Every bey and girl wants to have good teeth not only for the sake of appearance but because good, sound teeth are essential to the proper chewing of food and to good digestion. Dentists tell us that if people, especially children, wo.uld use as much milk as they should, dental work would be reduced fifty per cent. Children should have not less than a quart of milk each day. This of course includes milk that is used in cooked form, as in custards, milk puddings, etc., and milk taken with cereals. Axiults should use at least one pint of milk, or its equivalent, each day. Objection may be made that one cannot afford to buy the amount of milk indicated, at present prices. As a matter of fact it is cheaper to buy this much milk than it is to buy a lot of other more costly and' less beneficial foods. You get more for your money when you buy milk. One who has made a special study of food costs and food values has said, “No family of five can afford to buy any other food until they have first provided themselves with three quarts of milk a day.” In this connection it must be lemembered that milk is low in iron, and that excessive use of nilk after early infancy tends to produce aenemia or lack of iron in the blood. This deficiency must be m§de up. of course, bv fruits and vegetables, especially green vegetables, and cereals. But no diet can be said to

be well balanced without the necessarv proportion of milk as indicated. The “MILKY WAY” is the “HEALTH WAY”. o_ BULLING FISH TRUSTS The wholesale value of the fish “landed’’ in the chief countries of the world is $780,000,000. Add 25 per cent for storage, shipping expense and dealers' profit and the cost to fish consumers is well over one billion dollars. In this connection is a curious fact that many states as well as nations maintain fish hatcheries at the expense of taxpayers, and those hatcheries restock the lakes, rivers and streams for the benefit, generally, of combinations of men who control not only the fish boats and nets, but The individual fisherman has almost passed out of existence today because he cannot dispose of his “catch” except to the “trusts and must take what is offered or get out of business. An investigation of almost any fishing pact ip this nation will prove this fact, and it is a subject that deserves the attention of our authorities because the people pay twice. « * 5 Eyes | Examined * i Glasses * £ f Furnished I ? t I i «= £ Appointments can be made * for every Monday at i■ ■ i | Thornburg’s Drug Store | 8 , ! # * i *! * s * c & § FORT WAYNE, INDIANA ? # 2
