NEARLY COMPLETED
Farmers About Finished With
Work of Harvesting
Oats.
COMPLAIN OVER QUALITY

Oats thrashing is pretty generally
Completed throughout the county and
already . fair estimate of the Yield
can be made. conservative figures put.
ting 1t at about q bushels per acre.
When the crop was being cut. the
straw foretold . much heavier crop
but 1t was found that the heads were
not properly filed out and many
grains were missing.
From nearly Ill parts Of the county
complaints are being received q to
the quality Of the oats. Many Of the
grains are light and chany. being i'm.
properly developed and of little value
commercially. A great amount Of oats
has already been placed on the mar
ket and the elevators are daily crowd
ed with farmers unloading their grain.
Indications are that the present price
will continue for . time at least.

HAVE NOVEL SCHEME
Board of Review in Fayette
Wants All Building Rec
ords Kept.
TO HELP IN ASSESSING

Fayette county is to try a novel
scheme for making assessments by the
board OF review. The board has asked
the city council to have a record of
building permits kept. From this rec
ord the board and assessors will be
helped in obtaining list of additional
made during the year.
1t often happens room is added to a
house or other improvements are made
and the while building is reprinted.
The assessor then does not know any
change has been made. unless he
CHANGED to have seen it. The board
OF review believes record OF the per-
mits would help in such cases.
A record OF building permits has
been kept in this city for many years.
But the board of review and assessors
have not seen fit to try to obtain a
line on the additional improvements
by looking over the records. 1t APP
pears as good scheme and one quite
practical. Buildings may be remodeled
and their value increased greatly. but
the change escapes the notice OF the as
SCISSORS because of the lack OF strik-
ing change In outside appearance.

senate Saturday of the tactics employ

the comparative prices charged for
their product at home and abroad has
made cash register users all over the

Some time ago it was charged that
the increased price Of commodities
necessary in the home was due to the
fancy price set by the retailers. be-
cause of combination which enabled
them to fleece the consumer on all
sides, but subsequent inquiry has es-
tablished that fact that the retailers.
instead of being combined to boost
prices, are the victims of the manu-

PRESSED HARD
.:offee'a W.iaht on Old Age.

Wiz alinent men realize the in
3urior' fects OF coffee and the
change health that Postum can

timony fer the benefit Of others.
A superintendent Of public schools
IN one Of the southern states says:
MY mother. since her early child

Or, had been troubled with her heart
for number OF years and complained
OF that weak all over feeling and

"Some time ago I was making an
official visit to distant part Of the
country and took dinner with one of
the merchants OF the place. noticed
somewhat peculiar favour OF the
coffee, and asked him concerning It.
He replied that it was Postum.

Postum for short time. she felt so
much better than she did prior to its
use. and had little trouble with her
heart and no sick stomach: that the
headaches were not 20 frequent: and
her general condition much improved.

I'm A BAD Way"
Many Richmond Reader Will Feel
Grateful for This infor.
nation.

When your back gives out;
Becomes lame, weak or aching;
When urinary troubles set in,
Your kidneys are lin bad way"
Doan's Kidney Pills will cure you.
Here is local evidence to prove It:
Enoch Cromer, 800 N. Fourteenth
Street. Richmond, Ind, says: Il have
had no need of Doan's Kidney Pills
since they cured me Of kidney trouble
in 1906. In July that year l gave q
statement for publication endorsing
this remedy and at the present time
do not wish to withdraw anything I
then said. Railroading is very hard
on the kidneys and my case was no
exception to the rule. as I suffered
from kidney complaint for some time.
The passages OF the kidney secretions
were irregular and painful and often
felt dizzy and weak. Being advised
to try Doan's Kidney Pills, procured
q box at A. G. Luken & Cos drug store
and their use brought prompt relief.
In short time l was entirely free
from the trouble and since then.
whenever / have heard anyone COM

the fierce competition due to higher
prices has wrought havoc In the retail
trade. Consequently. when Senator
Beveridge showed that the American
retailer Is compelled to pay q great
deal more for his cash register than
his brother across the sea il compel
ed to pay. the same sympathy went
out to him as went out to the farmer
when It was learned that the harves-
ter trust amply protected. sells its
Chicago-made farm machinery in Aus
tralia at a lower price than Is charg-
ed the farmer. who lives within one
hundred miles of the factory.
Has Come to Stay.
The cash register business has come
to stay. Few retailers. attempt, now
adays. to get along without one, 1t il
a fixture that forms an important part
in the modern retail stores working
machinery. 1t guards against the dis
honest employee and keeps its own rec
ord of sales more accurately than =
skilled bookkeeper could keep them.
Thousands and thousands of the regis
tiers have been sold in the state In
the past few years. far in excess Of
the number Of self-binders sold. and
the harvest of the cash register trust
has swept thousands of dollars from
the tills of the merchants. the very
tills they were designed to protect.

HpriseG engaged In interstate commerce
which to limited extent ID possessed
by the federal government through
the inquisitorial powers Of the bureau
Of corporations and the authority en-
joyed BY the department Of justice.
Must Work Along Federal Lines.
The interstate commerce commits
sion has hong dreamed OF state rail-
road commissions working under the
same general scheme and bringing
about that uniformity Of regulation
which Is desirable both In the interest
OF the public and the railroads. With
reference to pure food, it e realized
by the department OF agriculture that
In order that the people may enjoy I'M
adulterated food and drink and drugs
It is highly desirable that the states
shall have legislation along the lines
Of federal laws relating to this sub
ject. In the case Of the meat inspec-
ton law the department Of agriculture
confesses that it has limitations, ow
Ing to the ease with which meat and
animals rejected by federal authori-
ties as unfit for interstate commerce
may be sold with the state where fed
eral condemnation has occurred.
Almost half Of the meat supply OF
the country Is not subject to federal
inspection and in few states or cities
is there an efficient local inspection.
Revolving and insanitary conditions
have been found In many local abat-
toirs and shops, but federal inspect
ors are powerless to remedy the sit
uation. Moreover, personalities are
frequently found in meats prepared by
local butchers. The health OF the
people demands that the states
change this situt,tion and enact legis-
lation along the lines Of the federal
inspection laws.
Powerless In Divorce Evil.
Congress has confessed Its inability
to deal with the marriage and df-
vorce problem and with child labor.
For the purpose OF creating q public
opinion that would lead to action by
the states the census bureau took a
complete census of marriage and d.
vorce in this country. The report OF
the bureau showed that one marriage
out of every thirteen was failure,
and that during the last twenty years
there had been steady increase In
the ratio.
In the interest of the continuance
and progress of the republic it Is i'm
perative that there should be effect
i've regulation OF marriage and d.
yorce, and President Taft proposes to
use all the means at his disposal,
which is, unfortunately, meagre, to
obtain it. With reference to child Ia.
Dor, the commissioner of labor has
been gathering great deal of infor-
nation supplementary to that which
has been published, and it will be use
full in campaign for uniform state |
law With regard to industrial insur-
ance, that, too, is matter for the
states, and for this reason there is no |
likelihood that it will receive any con-
sideration from congress. The bu-
reau Of forestry is deeply interested in
the proposal to discuss the conserva-
lion of natural resources.

President Pleased With Plan
OF Holding Conference Next

lation.
STATES GOVERNORS
URGED TO BE PRESENT
Chief Executive viii Not Coun-
tenance Legislation Which
The Supreme Court Likely
Knock Out.

Washington, d. G., June 19.-Presi
dent Taft 10 manifesting q deep inter.
est in the project to hold in Washing.
ton next January a national confer.
ence on uniform legislation. He hopes
that as many governors Of states az
can leave their capitals viii come to
Washington for the purpose Of con-
ferring with each other and with him
in connection with the adoption Of
model laws for the country.
The president has no wish to have
the federal government infringe on
the rights of states. He holds there
- line where the power and duties
OF the one begin and the other ends.
His respect for the constitution is we'll
known. and he has demonstrated it in
various ways since he has been in
THE White house, and particularly by
lh!s decision to secure the cooperation
iof the states In the passage OF legis-
lative reforms which will make for
1.-THE advantage OF the people.
Mr.. Taft will not countenance any
Legislation which stands chance of
!Oeing knocked out by the Supreme
court. His action In respect to the
Income tax proposition Is an excellent
Aexample Of the attitude he has as
stunned. Being In this frame Of mind,
The listened with especial interest sew
eral days ago to the request of a
committee Of the civic federation that
ne approve and participate in a ma
tional conference on uniform legisla-
Stion.
States Are Slow TO Respond.
President Roosevelt and Mr.. Taft.
when the latter was secretary OF war,
frequently discussed the need OF uni
form legislation and both were agreed
AZ to the advisability OF enacting laws
Tor the District OF Columbia which
should be models for the states. I'm
der the Roosevelt administration var
ious laws In this connection we're
enacted. Unfortunately the states
have failed to respond with the alacri-
ty that wes anticinated. Local con-
ditiOns were rca~cEsisie For legisla-
ton different from that i. force or
proposed fer the Distric. cf Columbia.
It Is evident to President Taft that
the mere fact that law is on the
statute hooks CT the distric. and that
the representatives in congress of
certain state vced for It. does not
mean that the Legislature Of that state
viii enact the same measure without
modification. But il public interest be
created in the state through, the Wis
It OF It's governor to Washington, the
chances are better for the uniform
legislation sought
The civic federation proposes as
subjects for discussion the regulation
OF corporations and railroads. pure
food laws. marriage and divorce, child
labor. Industrial insurance, and the
conservation OF natural resources.
