The following clipped from the
Marion Chronicle, gives a fair idea
of the way the present feeling is
regarding the liquor laws. In many
places the laws are so fagrantly
violated. and so little heed is Civ
en- to these infractions by the off
GERS, that the people are becoming
Disguised, and in very many places
if the question were to come up
again, results would be different. 1t
shows that the present law has been
tried, and found wanting.
If local option election were to
be held today Marion would 90
"dry' by a majority of from five
hundred to one thousand. Not only
have the results from the commercial
standpoint been Disappointing
revelation to business men, not only
have the moral effects been mani
testify demoralizing, not only has
there been no diminution in the
illegal liquor traffic, but people have
walked up to The. fact that the Proc
tor law creates a commercial and
political trust which insists on try

Q a STo RIA
Overcome by Gasoline.

The following from the Culver
Citizen will, interest many Plym-
outh people, as the men named are
we'll know here, and it may serve
as warning to others who think
to tempt fate by remaining In a
close room where gas Of any sort is
escaping. Pure air is the only sort
that is good for a man to breathe.
Ventilate even if you are cold.
Clark Allerding and Will Myers
of the Poplar Grove neighborhood
had an uncomfortable experience
with gasoline gas one day last
week which will forever put them
on their guard. They were working
In a close room with a corn grinder
driven by an 8-horse power gasoline
engine which exhausted in the
same room. After a time both be-
gan to feel dizzy, choked and weak.
BY going outdoors they revived and
went back to their work, but were
again driven out, feeling worse
than before. This time the effects
were so severe that they went home.
Allerding reports that when he
reached his house he dropped to the
floor exhausted. He could hardly
breathe. His throat was swollen,
his lungs congested and his heart
pounding. The doctor told him that
the gas would probably have made
him unconscious and killed him if he
had remained in the engine room a
few minutes longer.

On Tuesday evening the old and
new neighbors of Mrs. William
Matthew of east CAIRO street, met
and gave her a sort of farewell
party. The Matthew family will
soon leave the city for Gary, and
her friends, numbering some fifteen
of the neighborhood folks, took the
occasion to meet in her honor. They
presented her with a large glass
dish. They also took lunch and had
very enjoyable evening together.
All regret to lose these estimable
people from our midst, but Mr.
Matthew thinks it will be to his ad-
vantage to go where he has bust

will have lots of pleasure through

Protect the Quail.

The following from the Bourbon
News-Mirror is to the point, and
should be needed. The quail is said
by authorities on the bird question
to be worth his weight in gold to
the farmer, and if be is, he is a
most valuable asset, and should be
taken care of, fed and protected,
given the run of the farm, and in
every way encouraged to do his
best. If a quail is valuable it Is
not when he is shot to death by
hunters, for the eating of the bird,
while pleasant, is not a very neces-
sary part of life. His value is not
dead, but when living and enjoying
the utmost freedom, with no one
to modest or make afraid. He is
the farmers friend, and should be
tenderly cared for Here is what
the News-Mirror says:

killing of quail has proceed ed sys-
tematically and that there have been
great numbers killed 'to the de-
light of sportsmen. The true
sportsman makes no pot shots
thus giving the birds a slight chance
for their lives by allowing them tt
start to fly. After the quail have
all been exterminated the scientists

HUNTLEY PROJECT READY
Storing of Floid Water For Use On
Farming Lands Undertaken by
the Government and Paid
for by Farmers With Land.

Approximately sixty-seven million
dollars have been spent by the Gov
eminent In irrigation work, and this
vast sum is less than half of the
amount that will have been expend-
ed when Uncle Sans engineers
have completed ti.e present program
of reclamation. In nearly every
western state the flood waters of the
streams are being impounded and al
ready thousands of families are
benefting by this stored water. The
activities of the federal Govern
ment in reclamation work have re-
suited in awaking a widespread In
terest in irrigation, which is no long
err a local question confined to our
rainless country. Experience has
shown that a more general applica-
ton of its principles throughout the
whole country would result In
material benefit, especially in inten-
sive agriculture such as truck farm
ing and small fruit growing.
The farmer in the east and mid
die west is subject in large measure
TO the within of an uncertain rain
fall What would it have been
worth to him during twenty years
farming experience if he could
have turned on the rain whenever
his crops needed molsture2 His
half crops would have been full
ones. his occasional total failures
would have been successes, and the
money actually saved would amount
TO sum which might we'll make
him thoughtful. The western man
realizes these things. A man who
has practised farming by irrigation
or who has carefully studied its
advantages rarely reverts to either
the theory or practice of rainfall
farming. The farmer In humid
regions realizes clearly the handi-
caps under which he works, but
hesitates to change because he has
not had the object lessons or expert
ence of; the westerner, or has moi
given consideration to the matter OF
applying irrigation to his OWL
fields. ~

his children from which quote as follows'
"our two-year-old baby was very sick
at two different times and we came near
losing her. We had the best doctors,
but they did not know what the trouble
was. In the first sickness she had high fever
for several days, and the doctor said il acted
like scarlet fever, but as there were no other
cases he did not think it could be. After
wards she broke out in n rash all over her
body. The last sickness was similar and
the doctor was puzzled. She was very
nervous and we feared we would lose her.

and after two days use she passed several
