That some motorists feel the law is for the “other fellow’, has been pointed out by a judge who feels the whole subject of motor “conduct’’ is more or less of a normal question. Too many folks possess the “I don’t care feeling, forgeetting that ordinances are made for everyone. Be sure YOU don’t cause anyone’s death! Obey traffic regulations in your community and influence your fellow citizens to also respect the laws and have them enforced impartially. Investigation o fthe Accident Prevention Department of the Hoosier State Automobile Association develops the fact that your auto may be mechanically perfect, but unless you are a careful driver, you may cause an accident that will result in the

Few Ex-Presidents Lead Active Lives After Quitting Office

Comparatively little is known to the average reader of h.stofy as to the late of our Presidents after they leave the White House, 'lhe fact is that most of them do not dead active lives after leaving the Presidency. Among the exceptions are Chief Justice \\ m. Howard Taft, and John Quincy Adams who served long and honorable in Congress. 01 course President Roosevelt -was active, too, after laying down the reins of government. the story oi the American ex-President is told in an interesting manner in the current issue of the National Republic by Prof. Willis F. Dunbar, of the Departemnt of History of Kalamazoo Colege. In part. Prof. Dunbar says: “The exit of Mr. Cal Coolidge from the Presidency places him in the select group of Americans who have survived the rigors oi that office and lived to tell the tale. The great American exPresident is a figure which has been sadly neglected by historians and biographers. This has been ‘largely due to the fact that none of them has ever accomplished much of note after his retirement. Taft is an ‘exception. No other ex-President has served on the Supreme Court, say nothing of becoming Chief Justice. Taft has probably been of greater service to his country as Chief Justice than as President, but his is an extraordinary career. It is a surprising fact that only two ex-Presidents have become members of Congress: John Quincy Adams and Andrew Johnson. The others appear to have completely severed their active connection with the federal government on the day that they left the Presidency. None has ever deigned to become a member of the cabinet of .another President. The non-political life of the ex’-Presidetns has been * equally devoid of spectacular achievements. Perhaps this is the reason biographers of our Presidents have been content to cover their lives as ex-Presidents in a paragraph or twb as a rule. But , even, at that, one would think that Americans would know more about their ex-Presidents than they do. It is curious that a name which is on every tongue

death or injury of yourself or somebody else. Remember, even the most expert drivers \ aren't cautious enough at dusk or twilight when there isn’t sufficient artificial light or daylight to make objects distiguishable at an ordinary distance. Clean windshields help to prevent accidents. It isn’t hard on the eyes ordinarily to look at a pretty girl, but you may get an eye full of shattered glass is you don’t keep your attention concentrated on driving when you’re behind the wheel. Remember, the one-arm driver continues to figure prominently in £uto accidents. Don’t try to hold a child in your arms while driving. Control your temper and keep out of disputes with back seat drivers.

I for four years or more is so easily forgotten. Pcrhaos it is l-o- --' ansr we live so much in the pres--*nt and the future and so little in the past. “Thirty men have held the b.-gh ojlice of President of the Unit oil States. Hoevef is Hiiyt}v called the th Tty-first President but to substantiate that result one must count (trover C’evc ’and twice. There is little reason for this, but for some inexplicable reason it is generally dime because he is the only President to have served two non-consecutivc terms. Os course, if.one desires to be literal, he may also count Senator Atchinson of Kansas who if ways maintained that fm wj President for a day. The day in question was Sunday, March ’ 1849. Old ‘Rough and Re; dy Zachary Taylor, elected President in the preceding year,' refused to take his oath on Sunday. Atchison was President pro-tem of the Senate and the laws of that day made him President in case of the disability of the President and Vice President. Os the thirty—jor thirty-one—or thirty-two Presidents, (as you may prefer) we have had only twenty-three ex-Presidents (not counting the insistent Atchison). Three Presidents —Lincoln, Garfield and McKinley—have been assassinated and three —Wm. Henry Harrisoni Taylor and Harding have died in office of natural diseases. ThomasJefferson is the only man who ever “resigned ’ the Presidency. He did not do so officially, but he went home in disgust in the winter of 1809, several weeks before his successor Madison, was inaugurated.” o The old fashioned boy who used to get a real thrill when he heard the cylinder record phonograph at the county fair has grown up and now has a son who won’t even look up when he hears an airplane or dirigible passing loverhead. Statistics show that the number of railroad robberies has dropped ninety-three per cent in the past ten years. Most of the yeggs evidently have gone into the automobile hold-up business.

I Wheat Responds With Fertilizer Wheat has made the best response to the use of commercial fertilizer of any farm crop according to experiments conducted by the agronomy department of Purdue Agricultural Experiment station on the various exneriment fields scattered over Indiana. The use of 300 pounds of complete fertilizer per acre on the wheat crop on the agronomy farm at Lafayette, has returned $13.29 in increased wheat production. After deducting the cost of the fertilizer, each dollar invested in its use h»s returns’ $2 more of wheat. Wheat yields have been increased from 50 per cent to as much as 100 per cent from the use of complete fertilizer applied at the rate of 300 to 100 pounds per acre for rotation and at the same time, clover ans grass, which should generally follow, have also been benefited. Among the factors in re ducing the cost of producing the

• wheat, the liberal use of fertilizer is by far the most effective on the average. Seeding wheat after the “fly free” date or after a crop of soy beans has been removed makes it all the more important to give the crop a good start before winter sets in. Complete fertilizer stimulates both roof and top growth, promotes stooling or till lering, and results in earlier maurity and greater resistance to lisease. As a rule 200 to 300 pounds of fertilizer per acre of a complete fertilizer such as 2-12-6 or 2-14-4 walysis. should be used. More nitrogen may be advisable where the ground has not been recently manured or clovered. After the corn crop, fertilization of wheat should be especially liberal, as the corn has reduced the available plant food supply almost up to the wheat seeding time. The same is true of wheat m soybean stubble since the nitration of the roots and stubble loes not become available until ■hey decay during the followingspring. • “Fertilizer for Indiana Soils and Crops,” a Purdue bulletin.

Dr. Treadway has been appointed chief of the Narcotics Division of the service, a new office created to supervise the narcotic farms. It was agreed, said Dr. Treadway, that the eastern farm should be located somewhere within the ■territory of Kentucky, Tennesee, Southern West Virginia, North 1 or South Carolina, Northern Alabama, or Georgia. The western i farm should be in Arkansas, Ok-
