East Chicago Is Celebrating
Loudly Today Over
Councils Action.
Especial to TIE T1MEs)

East Chicago, Ind, March 22.-
While Mayors Becker of Ham
mond and Parks of Whiting slept
the untroubled sleep of democratic
righteousness last night, in their
several hunks, Mayor Schlieker
with his heaviest artillery moved
on the peaceful and unguarded en-
virons of Hammond and Whiting.
Without the firing of a single vol
ley, however, the Schlieker CO.
horts captured the two municipai-
ties and hoisted the tri-colored
guidon of Calumet.
The members Of the East Chicago
city council are certainly no pikers.
They don't believe In starting some
thing and then leaving the job half
finished. AT their meeting last night
they annexed Hammond, and while
the spirit moved they took in Whit

COPS NOW
HOUSED IN
NEW HONE:
Larkin Maxwell First Pris-
oner to Be Immured in
New Bastile;; No Night
Chauffer Has Been En-
gagged for Auto Patrol.

1t will be some time before the
hammond police who are now housed
In their new quarters in the city hall
Will be comfortably at home there.
The boys. are delighted with their
quarters. and each one is willing to
lend helping hand to help make
things convenient at the new place.
The first person to enjoy the hos-
pitality of the new station was Lark
ing MAXWELL. the president of the
Teamsters' union, who spent a few
hours in the new lookup pending the
arrival of his bondsmen. he having been
arrested on charges preferred by his
wife against him and Emma Hinman.
Roughly speaking, the new station
has six rooms. These are the chiefs
room. the desk sergeants room, the
squad room, the cell room, lodgers.s
room. and the women's ward At the
entrance there is a spacious lobby, and
a wide corridor leads to the different
rooms.
VIII Eeautify Grounds
With the exception Of the office and
squad rooms the floors throughout the
station are OF cement. There are ample
water. light ard heat facilities. N
fact. the improvements over the OLD
Quarters are So aasl6e - ~
no room for coinparison.
As soon as the interior is fitted nm
the biuecoats will devote their spars
time to- beautifying their SURROUNDINGS
by laying out flower beds and lawns
The auto patrol wagon is kept in the
city, back of the city hall. and is at ali
times ready to go out on a call Thus
far no night chauffeur has been pro-
vided. but it will not be long before
some of the regular policemen will
learn to drive the wagon, and their
services may then be required for an
emergency call.

USE OF THE ROAD DRAG.

The surface of the average coun-
try road should be covered in one
round with the drag. One horse
should bed i've on the inside of the
wheel track and the other on the
outside, the drag being set, by means
Of the chain, so that it is running at
an angle of about As degrees with
the wheel track, and working toward
the center Of the road. In the spring
when the roads are more likely to
be rutty and soft it is generally better
to go over the road twice or more.
The drag should be floOred with
boards which are separated by open
spaces Of sufficient width so that the
dirt which falls over will rattle
though.
On roads with heavy traffic the
drag should be used much oftener
and with more care thar on roads
with light traffic.
The distance from the drag at
which the team is hitched affects the
cutting. A long hitch permits the
blade to cut deeper than a short hitch
likewise q neayy doubletree will
cause the cutting edge to settle deeper
than a light one.
There are very few periods of the.
year when the use Of the drag does
not benefit the road, but it does the
best work when the soil is moist and
yet not too sticky. This is frequently
within a half-day's time after a rain.
When the earth is in this state it
works the best, and the effects of
working it are fully as beneficial as.
at any other time.

people beginning the use Of it become
discouraged before they are we'll

as it often takes a whole season for
the road to become properly pud-

worked with a drag only a short time
it is not we'll to expect it to tand up

COWPEA HAY.

The genera opinion seems TO be
that the are especially hard
- cure into hay. All around me [ see
farmers moving cas- and letting
them lie in the u till dry and then
taking up a pile Of k stems, the
leaves being all lost, thogh they are
the best part Of the hay.
Treated in this a h peas make
n rough hay, far inferior to h they
would make if properly cured In
stead of being difficult to cure, [ have
always found cowpeas as easy to cur
as any other forage plant. / have
cured the hay in fine shape for many
years and never so far used a stake, a
oush. or a scaffold, but ave simply
made the hay Just as / would make
clover by keeping it from the sun as
much as possible while curing. Curing
partly in the cock and windrow, and
letting it finish in the barn, I ave
always had clean, sweet hay with the
leaves on and green in color.
COwpeas will cure if you will sim
ply let them cure and do not monkey
with all sorts Of c~ontrivances to spoil
the hay. My plan has been to start
the in he morning and cut
till noon. Start a tedder right after
the lower and keep it going to toss
the hay up loosely to facilitate the
whiting.
Rake in to windows that afternoon.
Next mOrning.t turn the windrows and
that afternoon cock the hay into as
tall and narrow cocks as Will stand
we'll AS soon as you can take a
bunch in both hands and give a twist
and can see no sap run to the twist,
haul it into the barn while the leaves
are still limp, and when in the barn
LET it strictly alone, and it will cure
bright and sweet.
HOW long it should stay in the
cocks Will depend on the condition of
the crop and the weather. l have
stored it the third day after cutting
when the crop and the weather were
both favorable, and | have had to let
a ranker growth stay out a week.
Caps of cotton cloth are useful for
protecting the cocks, but rain does
not DO the damage that it does with
red clover hay
Some cure by setting stakes over
the field and shocking the green pea
vines as fast as cut around the
stakes, after the n Of curing
n 1t Will cure in this way, but
there will be a great loss Of the leaves
after they get crisp, and as [ nave
always made the best Of hay in my
method, ! cannot see the advantage
of the labor and expense OF Setllng
stakes.
The first point to observe is to let
the pea mature to the yelOWlnS Oh
the pods, but not to let them get so
mature that they will begin to cast
their leaves, which they do very soon
after the ripening of the pods.
have seen this summer a number
Of fields of peas with corn sown among
the peas There will be a smaller
growth of the pea by reason of the
presence of the corn, and the hay VIII
be harder to cure and worth less taan
without the corn. for the great value
of peavine hay lies ia it's high pro-
TEN character. and half corn Will
diminish this.
If anything is mixed with the peas,
I would prefer the all-yellow soy bean,
for this by its upright growth VIII
help to hold up the peas and make
the moving easier. and the soys VIII
increase instead Of diminishing, the
pOrtcin content of the hay.

Mrs. Higgins. who was sitting near the
fire in one Of the large drawing rooms
and called her attention to some pho
tographs on the table close by. She
went over TO him and he invited her
10 sit on the ottoman. There he sat
between the two ladies until nearly 40
o'clock.
Then he played round of bridge
with Mrs. Keppel. after which he re-
marked that by way of a change" he
would ask Mrs. Higgins to be his part

she does not excel at the game, as most
OF his majesty's friends do; but she

So two folds with huge diamond
buckles. Mrs. Higgins was in plain
