In which the gasoline tax Taw, enacted by the legislature In 1923 and Imposing a tax of 2 cents on each gallon of gasoline sold for use in operating vehicles, was held constitutional and valid. The decision was written by Louis B. ' Ewbank, judge, and concurred in by all the other judges, except Benjamin M. Willoughby, who was absent. The Supreme court upheld the decision^ made by the St Joseph Circuit court. I The decisions were made in the suit which Bruce Gafill of South Bend filet! against Robert Bracken, auditor of state, to restrain Bracken from enforcing the terms of the act. Indianapolis.—Under the general supervision of Pliny H. Wolfard, chief deputy secretary of state, the official canvass of the vote in Indiana for Presidential electors and for state officers began in the secretary of state's । office here. Because of the close race between Benjamin M. Willoughby. Republican, and George K. Denton, Democrat, for election as judge of th< Supreme court from the First district, there was unusual Interest in the canvass. Those in charge of the canvass, . besides Mr. Wolfard, are: Herbert Spencer, representing the Democratic state committee; E. H. McCafrey, representing the go'vernor, and Frank | Denius, assistant deputy secretary o! state. Indianapolis.—Ed Jackson, governorelect, said that in a few days he would announce the appointment of a committee of probably four persons to make a study of the various boards and commissions of the state government with a view to eliminating the unnecessary bodies and consolidating their work with the work of other departments. The governor-elect practically has decided on the personnel of the committee, but said that he would not disclose their names until he had received their acceptance of the appointment This, he said, will be several days. Indianapolis.—Lewis S. Bowman of Richmond, the newly elected auditor of state, announced that he had definl'.ely decided on three major appointments in his office, and that he would be in Indianapolis soon to discuss and, if possible, reach a decision on the other appointees. The three persons he has selected thus far are: Lewis C. Johnson, chief clerk in the state highway commission; Archie Robbitt of English, Crawford county clerk and Republican chairman for the Third district, as gasoline tax clerk, and Charles Schultz, formerly of Newcastle. as settlement clerk. Indianapolis.—With the opening of the hunting and trapping season in Indiana. November 10, officials of the fish and game division of the state conservation department issued a notice to hunters setting out the dates of the season and a request to protect the rights of farmers and land owners as to obtaining consent to trespass and the leaving of fires. George N. Mannfeld, chief of the division, especially asked hunters to refrain from shooting near live stock or poultry and not to tear down fences’ or gates. ’ Indianapolis.—Governor Emmett F. Branch announced the appointment of Pliny H. Wolfard, chief deputy secretary of state, as the personal secretary to the governor beginning December 1, and serving throughout the remainder of Governor Branch's present term. Frederick E. Schortemeier, the present secretary to the governor, will leave the office December 1 to take up thf^ duties as secretary of state, to which office he was elected by an impressive majority on November 4. Indianapolis.—Appointments to be made by the new state administration, matters expected to come before the tiext session of the Indiana generaj assembly and plans for lending a dele- i gation from Indiana to the inaugura- • tion of President Coolidge next March, i were discussed at a series of informal conferences by newly elected state officials and party leaders at Republican headquarters at the Hotel Severin. .

HOW TO KEEP WELL $ . Dr. Frederick R. Green, Editor of “Health.** (©, 1924. Western Newspaper Union.) Are Microbes Real ? THE microscope is just ninety years old. Yet in that short time, no I । longer than the life of many persons | ! still living, it has changed our ideas ! of the world we live in. We naturally think of the world as 1 limited to what we can see. Yet we I know that there are many things in the world beyond our vision. The sailor knows that (he land too far away for him to see will be made visible to him | by the telescope, which brings far objects near. The human eye is Hmlted, not only j as to the distance which it can see but also as to the size of the object It can see. The microscope makes small objects visible just as the tele--1 scope makes distant objects visible. When the watchmaker has a delicate job of repairing to do, he uses his microscope, so that he can see the tiny j ' springs and wheels plainly enough to : work on them. The wheels are there, even if they are .oo small for his eyes to see. They are just as real as * larger objects, only we can’t see them ; until the microscope has given addli tional power to our eyes. ; The microscope was invented In its present form in 1835 by three men—j Lister, an Englishman; Chevalier, a Frenchman, and Amid, an Italian. The microscope is used today tn hundreds of factories and workshops, and is indispensable in any work which is too fine for the unaided human eye. Yet there are still many people who regard anything seen through a microscope as Imaginary rather than real. The microscope doesn't create anything or imagine anything. It doesn’t Increase the size of the object looked at, any more than a telescope brings , a distant ship any nearer. It merely Increases the power of the human eye, [ so that it can see an object too small to be seen by the unaided vision. One of the first discoveries made with the microscope was that there were many living things in this world too small for the human eye to set*. These tiny living creatures were called “animalculae” or little animals by old Van Leeuwenhoek, the Dutch spectacle maker, who first saw them In IGS3. He thought they were animals. In 1878, Sldillot, a French scientist, called them “microbes'’ or “little lives.'’ They are little plants, very small but just as real as an oak tree or a cabbage plant. There are many different kinds and they grow from seed just like wheat and corn. (©. 1924. Western. Newspaper Union.) Dodging Diabetes r T'HE discovery of insulin Is a great 4- advance in the treatment of diabetes. But insulin does not in any i way prevent this disease. It only enables the doctor to control It and to keep the diabetic alive a few years. No one knows why. In some persons, ; diabetes occurs. But we do know that it is increasing. Doctor Joslin, one of the best-known authorities on j this disease, says there an* probably more than half a million persons in this country suffering from this, disease. We do know that it Is more common among rhe well-to-do than among those I In moderate circumstances. It is more , common among those who lead sedentary lives than among those who do hard physical work, and, most impor- । tant of all, it is much more common among the fat than the thin. During middle life, a fat person Is j 40 times as apt to have diabetes as a person of normal or slightly under i normal weight. So diabetes seems to be a disease of the prosperous. Those who over- ! eat and under-exercise are preferred I Candidates for this disease. After you once get it, there is no cure. You can control it by proper । living but you can never get entirely well again. You've got to pay the 1 price, the rest of your life, of eating 1 too much, especially too much sugar . and starch, and working too little. After you get It. the first thing the ! doctor will do will be to cut out sugar and starch and to reduce your weight. | Knowing this, isn't it sensible to do these things yourself, before you are sick, rather than to wait and do the same things after it is too late? The most common defect of middle age is overweight. Fat is not, only I a b*urden but a danger. Cut down on candy, pie, pudding and other sweets, j ; Eat less white bread and cereals and more fresh fruit and vegetables. Drink more milk and fewer ice cream sodas. I If your work doesn’t give you enough , exercise, give your muscles something ; to do that will keep them active. Drink : I plenty of pure water and breathe plen- ■ I ty of fresh air. Good health is easy, if you will live simply. It costs less than th? j disease and is a great deal more comfortable. (©, 1924. Western Newspaper Union.) A Tragic Comedy The proud possessor of a palatial j ' home was much Importuned by a i movie company to let them use it for ; a few takes. One day he assented, left for his office as usual, and in due time returned. He found a bath tub on the lawn, half the windows broken, j and the front door in splinters. “I j didn't know it was to be a comedy.” remarked the owner as he surveyed the scene. Slitting Tongue of Crow There is no truth to the notion that a crow can be made to talk like a parrot if the tongue Is slit. It is a cruel practice which has no justification whatever. Crows sometimes learn to speak almost as well as parrots, but it is not made possible by slitting their tongues. —Pathfinder Magazine.

Ability to Keep Horses in Shape

+ Good Horseman Has His Animals Ready for Call to Work at All Times. (Prepared by the United States Department of Agriculture.) A man who has the ability to keep ' horses In such condition that they are । ready for any call Is a good horseman, says the United States Department of Agriculture. There is comparatively little scientific information on which to base conclusions relative to the fundamentals that go to make up good horsemanship, but there is a wealth of experience gained through years of handling horses that might be gum- । marized. The methods which good horsemen have found to be the most satisfactory are therefore discussed in a new' bulletin on the care and management of farm work horses, just issued by the United States Department of Agriculture, as Fanners’ Bulletin 1419. Fundamental Factor. The fundamental factor, say the authors, is the name. In no phase of animal husbandry Is this “man” element more vital than in the care of horses. When a man has the ability to keep horses in good condition and ready for the call to work at all times, he is sab! to have a knack with , horses. This Is often the result large- I ly of Interest and fondness for horses. | and is acquired In the natural course of handling them. But there are certain factors involved in the care and management of horses which even the man with a “knack” for horses should have at his command. Besides having the ability to keep the horses in a thrifty condition, the man shoufd have the advantages of convenient stabling facilities. paddocks adjoining the stables, and suitable sheds for wintering tn order to provide for the health and comfort of the animals. Feeding must be adjusted to seasonal require- i tnents and thorough grooming practiced. The harness must be well fitted and cleaned regularly to Insure satisfaction and durability, and the shoulders, feet, and teeth of the animals must be well cared for. Suggestions for the most satisfactory results in feeding under work conditions, salting, and watering, wintering idle horses, preparation for spring work, grooming nnd clipping, harness fitting, preventing sore shoulders. caring for the teeth, are offered In the bulletin as a guide In the best management of farm work horses. Hints for Horsemen. The bulletin concludes with a paragraph of “Hints for Horsemen" in which some of the following are suggested: Make hitches carefully, in order that the pull will be at the cenj ter of draft, and that each horse will pull his share of the load. The strong- ; est horse should usually have as much of the loud as suits his power. Do not 1 work a slow horse and a fast horse

LIME IS MOST SATISFACTORY TO NEUTRALIZE ACIDITY OF SOILS

No Reason for Discriminating Against Any Material. | Ground limestone, screenings, I burned lime, hydrated lime, air-slaked lime, shells, refuse lime and marl may all be used for neutralizing soil acidity. Which of these different forms of lime should be used In any particular case • should be determined by the cost at which a given amount of calcium car- * bonate or its equivalent. In a reasonably fine condition, can be delivered , to the soil. Aside from this, there is , no good reason for discriminating ' against any of these materials. Neither I should magnesium limestone be considered either more or less valuable ! than the ordinary calcium limestone. Theoretically, 100 pounds of finely ground limestone. 56 pounds of freshly burned lime, 74 pounds of hydrated I lime and about 90 pounds of air-slaked i lime have equal acid neutralizing power. In calculating the cost, the । price of the material, the freight if any, the cost of hauling and the labor Involved In spreading It on the land, should be taken into account. If finely ground limestone can be secured delivered at the nearest railroad station nt $3 per ton, then, allowing for the smaller cost of handling equivalent । amounts of the more concentrated I forms, fresh burnt lime should be secured at the station for $6. hydrated [ lime for $4.50, and air-slaked lime for about $3.50 per ton. Usually ground limestone will be the most economical and most satisfactory material to use. In considerLarge Losses of Swine Caused by Tuberculosis Tuberculosis is shown to be a promi- ! nent cause for losses in swine by a recent report of the Meat Inspection division of the United States Depart- ( ment of Agriculture. Os about 54,- : 000,000 hogs federally inspected during the year ended June 30 a total of 232.670 dressed hog carcasses were condemned for various causes. Nearly one-half of this number were condemned because of tuberculosis infection. In addition to the 100,110 whole carcasses there were 1,009,253 parts । of carcasses condemned because of I tuberculosis. This represents a great loss to the swine raisers of the countfy which, i according to specialists of the United States Department of Agriculture, can be prevented to a large extent. Following infected cattle in feed lots Is said by the government specialists I to be a chief means of swine becoming infected. Avian tuberculosis has ; been shown to be another important cause of infection in swine. Fowls that have died from tuberculosis, when fed to swine, pass the disease on to the swine.

h . together. There will be friction and loss of power. In addition to irritation to both driver and horses. At the beginning of the day’s .work, warm up the horses gradually. The digestive tract will be emptied, the muscles and joints limbered up, the collar will be made pliable, and the whole machine will be in better condition for the day’s work. Work the horse at his normal gait in the field. Sweating during hot weather indicates that the | cooling system is working. Puffing may be a serious warning, especially If the horse has ceased to sweat, and overheating may result If the horse Is ■ pushed at this time. A brief rest, a swallow of water, or a sponging of the mouth will often restore normal action and avoid serious consequences. A copy of the bulletin may be obtained free as long as the supply lasts, by writing to the United States Department of Agriculture, Washington, D. C. Study Record Book Data to Keep Track of Sires One way to stimulate Interest of the dairyman In the value of better sires can be accomplished by making ■ proper use of the data which Is found in the herd record book headings, provided that they have been filled in 1 completely and properly. Get the | name and number of each cow’s sire, I and the dam’s name if possible. In many Instances the sire my be “gone i and forgotten.” but one can usually find out which cows are sired by a ' certain bull, and in that way determine the value of the sires formerly heading the herd. The Ideal data on sires Is arrived nt by comparing Ids daughters with their dams. Know your bull through his daughters. The daughters should show n decided Improvement over j their dams In respect to their production and' conformation If selected for the future herd. When you have found the rating of a sire nnd he has proved to be exceptionally good, and Isr still j living, continue using him in the herd. Too often a good sire goes to the block before his value is known. Breeders should exchange sires or , loan them to someone until their daughters can be tested. There 1s no better way to make cow testing work more effective than to promote the use of better sires. Thin-Shelled Eggs Recent research work In Kentucky Indicates that the absence of calcium carbonate results In the production of fewer eggs and thoee produced become thinner shelled, although the j lack of carbonate Is not the primary j cause of soft-shelled eggs. Rock phosi phate Is valuable ns a bone builder but not as an egg shell producer. Limestone and oyster shell both aid In shell production, but do not replace I grit ns a grinder.

Ing the price, the fineness of grinding anti the freight rate must be taken Into account. The fine material is worth more than-the coarse. If coarse material is used, it will require more to get the same immediate acid neutralizing effect. A good grade of ground limestone should be fine enough so that all will pass through a I<X>mesh sieve. The objection to coarse material, such as screenings, is that it acts too slowly. Only the fine dust will act immediately.—Purdue College : of Agriculture. — It Is Very Profitable to Rat-Proof Any Crib Corn is never so cheap that one can afford to feed it to the rats. The present price of corn makes it very profitable to rat proof any crib. A good concrete foundation will keep I rats from working under the floor, and I a strip of hardware cloth and a strip ! of tin above it will keep them from going through the walls. The hardware cloth prevents the rats gnawing through the lower part of the walls, and the tin prevents them from climbing higher. It is important to keep the garden free from weeds and Insects. • • • “Co-operation means to so conduct yourself that others can work with you.” • • • The ice from a home-built ice house is just as cold and just as effective as that from a commercial plant. • • • Trimming out fence corners with a scythe has rather undeservedly become a lost art in many sections of the country. * • • Which did you bring home from the county fair, prize money or experience?

If the winter supply of potatoes Is to be stored under the best conditions, the temperature must be lowered and kept between 36 and 40 degrees. This should be done as soon as possible.

Physical strength and endurance, । knowledge, ingenuity, cleverness, sound reasoning, a good memory, patience, > courage, honesty, thrift, friendliness, and love of home, are some of the re- “ quirements for complete success as a farmer.

It is narrated that a band of pilgrims, headed by an old peasant from Raya zan. recently visited Lenin's mauso leum in the Red Square, Moscow. ' Above the tomb, on a marble slab, are inscribed the words: “Lenin Is dead, but his works I've." On reading this Inscription the old peasant, in the fullness of his heart blurted out: “Ekh, Hitch. Hitch I It would be better if thou were alive and thy works were dead!” The unconscious humorist was promptly arrested for his blasphemous utterance. — London Morning Post.

IMPROVED UNIFORM INTERNATIONAL Sunday School ' Lesson ’ (By REV P. B FITZWATER, D.D.. Dean of the Evening: School. Moody Bible In- : Btitute of Chicago.) ((c). 1924. Western Newspaper Union.) Lesson for November 30 THE GOOD SAMARITAN LESSON TEXT—Luke 10:25-37. GOLDEN TEXT—Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart and j with all thy soul and with all thy strength, and with all thy mind; and. thy neighbor as thyself.—Luke 10:27. PRIMARY TOPIC —The Story of a Good Neighbor. JUNIOR TOPIC—The Parable of the Good Samaritan: INTERMEDIATE AND SENIOR TOP- ! IC—-How to Be a Good Neighbor. YOUNG PEOPLE AND ADULT TOPlC—Whose Neighbor Am 17 I. How to Inherit Eternal Life (w. 25-28). 1. The Lawyer’s Question (v. 25). "Lawyer” here means one versed In religious law, the Scriptures—not lawyer in our modern sense of that term. | It would more nearly’ correspond to a theological professor. The lawyer’s object was to trap Jesus —to induce Him to take such a stand as would weaken His Influence, as a teacher, i He expected Jesus to set forth some new ceremonies* which would conflict with or disparage the law. 2. Jesus’ Question (v. 26). Though Jesus knew the motive of the lawyer he did not evade his question. He sent him to the law, the field which was familiar to him. He thus was rollbed of his own weapon. 3. The Lawyer's Reply (v 27). He made an intelligent answer declaring that the entire content of the law was embraced in love to God and man. This expresses the whole of human duty. 4. Jesus’ Reply (v. 28). This straightforward answer went to the heart of the lawyer. Perfect love to God and mt.n is truly the way of life. No man has yet had or can have such love. His sinful condition precludes Its possibility. Man's failure to measure up to tills requirement is his condemnation. The lawyer keenly felt this thrust. He was defeated on his own grounds and convicted of guilt. 11. Who Is My Neighbor? (vv. 29-37). 1. The Lawyer's Question (v. 29). This question reveals the insincerity of the la. yer. Christ’s answer had reached ids conscience, and now he seeks to escaiie the difficulty by asking a captious question. Lawyerlike he sought to get off by raising a question as to the meaning of words. 2. Jesus’ Answer (vv. 3<i-37). This more than answered the lawyer’s question. In the parable of the Good ' Samaritan He makes clear who is a I neighbor, and also what it means to be a neighbor, or what loving a neighbor means. Christ's answer had a double meaning. He not only made clear who is my neighbor, but made It clear that the lawyer was not playing the neighbor. He thus was convicted of n<>t having been a neighbor. (1) Who is my neighbor? This destitute and wounded man left on the highway by the robbers is the man who needs a neighbor. My neighbor, therefore, is the one who needs my help, whether he lives next door or on rhe other side of the world. Those who have the Spirit of Christ can see ; their neighbors on every hand. (2) Wha: being a neighbor means, our supreme concern should not be “Who is my neighbor?” but "Whose neighbor am I?” To be a neighbor is, (a) to be on the lookout for those in need of our help (v. 33). (b) To have compassion on the needy (v. 33). Christ’s compassion was aroused as He came into contact with those . who were suffering and in need. All those who have His nature will be likewise moved, (c) To give to those in need (v. 34). Many are willing to give money to help the poor and needy, but are unwilling to personally minister to them. Many times the personal touch is more important than the material aid. We should giv a ourselves as well as our money, (d) To bind up wounds (v. 34). (e) To set the helpless ones on our beasts while we walk (v. 34). This is proof that love is genuine. Christians will deny themselves in order to have something to give to those who have need. This kind of sympathy is greatly nee<led today, (f) To bring to the inn and take care of the unfortunate (v. 34). Genuine love does not leave its service incomplete. Much Christian service is spasmodic, helps and then leaves a man to take care of himself, (g) To give money (v. 35). It costs a good deal to be a neighbor. Love is the most expensive thing in the world. It cost God His only Son. It cost Christ His life. May we go and do likewise! To Repent To repent is to begin over again in devotion to do the better thing we should have done. That is the very alpha of the gospel. And we begin over again not with tears but with joy. The very sins and blunders of the past may be caught up into some divine atonement that may make grace and joy to abound. That is the omega of our gospel. When sin abounded grace did much more a >ound. —Biblical XX orld. Higher Faith B Is easy to believe that Providence Is directing us when eve’-ything seems to be going our way. but to believe in God's loving guidance when circumstances are adverse calls for higher faith— The Mennonite. Conversion Conversion to true, broad, large and magnanimous ideas is as much a vital part of Christian experience as turning from sin to righteousness.— The Congregationalist. Christian Life Probably the most of the difficulties in trying to live the Christian life arise from attempting to half live it.— Drummond.

The thermometer sometimes gets very low, but it is never vulgar. Permanent roads are a good investment —not an expense. Building Far Behind the Automobile Millions now recognize the automobile as a necessity. It is no longer a luxury for the few’. Sixty jxr cent of its use is for business. Because of this the moder n paved highway has become an economic necessity. Yet although the mileage of Concrete Roads and Streets has bean steadily increasing, our highway system today lags far behind the automobile. The great majority cf our highways are as out of date as the singletrack, narrow gauge railway of fifty years ago. Such a condition not only seriously handicaps the progress of the automobile as a comfortable, pre fitable means of transportation, but also holds back commercial, industrial and agricultural advancement in practically every section of the country. It is costing taxpayers millions of dollar annually. Highway building should be ; corunued and enlarged upon. 'four highway authorities are rea Jy to carry on their share of this great public work.
