COP GUESSING NUMBER OF
FLIES GETS CHOICE BEAT

A new fly trap has been Sc
cured for police headquarters and
is rapidly filling with flies. For
bait" stale beer with small pieces
of bread is used. So rapidly is
the trap filling that the patrolmen
have been specializing on the num-
Der in the trap and guessing how
many will be there by next Satur-
day.
Chief of Police Gormon an
nounced a guessing contest for
the patrolmen today, the prize to
be the choice of beats The
contest will take place next Sat
urday night when the night men
report for duty.
They will be allowed to gather
around the fly trap for ten min
utes, according to Mr.. Gormon's
plan. The trap will then be re-
moved and closed. The guesses
will be sealed and not opened I'M
counted.
The problem of counting the
flies is puZZling Isaac Winburn,
custodian of the building. He
was appointed by Chief Gormon
to count the flies and as a reward
one of the terms of the contest is
that each patrolman must make a
donation to buy Winburn a box
of choice cigars, which will be pre-
sented to him when he turns in
the result of his labors.

LIBRARIES NEEDED
BY COUNTRY PEOPLE
Secretary Milan of Library
Commission Talks at
Earlham.
PLANS ARE PROPOSED
Speaker Says Libraries Must
be Established in Small
Towns.
PLANS ARE PROPOSED

THE biggest thing in library work
in Indiana is Township Library Elk
tension" said Carl H. Milan, secretary
of the Public Library Commission of
Indiana, in a lecture to the summer
library school at Earlham this after
noon. More than half the people of
this state - he said do not have public
library service and do not take advant-
age of the state travelling libraries"
Most of these people who lack the
benefits of public libraries live in the
country. Providing country people
with libraries is therefore one prob
lem. How can we, as librarians, who
believe that no community is well pro-
vided for until it has some means of
getting all the books it needs, help to
get books out into the country"
Indiana tried a county library sys-
tenn nearly hundred years ago. More
than fifty years ago it tried a town
ion of the state department of educa-
ton. Both of these were only fairly
successful and both county and town
ship libraries have ceased to exist in
most parts of the state.
Nov we have a township extension
plan, the main idea of which is to
have a public library in every good
town, and to have that library, through
branches in the county towns and de-
posit collections in the country
schools, churches, stores and homes,
furnish books to everybody in the COM
munity-in other words to make every
town a library center for the people
who use the town as a business cen
ter. Some libraries serve several town
ships, some only one or two.
Nearly so libraries are already do
up every year"

GRAY BREAKS INTO
THE MULHALL CASE
Mulhall Feared Trouble With
Gray on the Labor
Committee.
(National News Association


WASHINGTON, July 15.-There is a
split in the Indiana congressional del
egation over the question as to wheth-
er or not an attorney, or attorneys,
should be employed to assist the spec
ial committee Of the House OF Repre-
sentatives that is to conduct an inves.
tgauon Daseu upon ,ne un.lsva ol
Colonel M. NJ. Mulhall.
Representatives Finly H. Gray and
w A. Cullop voted to give the COM
mittee authority to employ lawyers
and to fix their compensation. The
other members of Congress from Indi-
ana voted against granting that author
ity.
FinIy n. Gray's Reasons.
In stating why he voted as he did
Representative Gray said:
lit goes without saying that the men
who are accused by Colonel Mulhall
will be defended by the ablest and
most astute lawyers that money can
procure. 1t seemed to me that it would
be against public policy and would
hands if it were denied the same right
to employ attorneys that the men &C
cused of lobbying have. | believe in
economy, but not that sort of economy.
Gray Not Worrying.
James E. Watson is not the only
citizen of the Sixth Indiana district
who is brought into the Mulhall mess.

A REWARD RUN MADE

NJ. C. Henley and his son, Harry,

a week ago with P. w. Smith of this
city in his automobile. Leaving Rich

rived in Oden. which is beyond Petos-

is more than 500 miles this is probab.
ly the record run between Richmond
and Petosky or Oden- by automobile
1t was the fourth time Mr.. Smith has
made the trip. On each occasion he
has been accompanied by Mr.. Henley

RAJ" HANDICAP IN
WHEAT 1HRESH|NG
Last Week 5000 Bushels of
Wheat Were Brought to
Local Mill.
INCREASE IN ALFALFA
Litt1G. Rye Being Threshed-
Critical Time For Corn
Crop, Says Carpenter.

The excessive rains during the past
week will handicap the farmers in
their wheat threshing though little
damage will be done to the crop. &C
cording to c. G. Carpenter, pioneer
miller Of this city.
Last week when the farmers started
threshing more than 5000 bushels
were brought to the Richmond Roller
Mills. The wheat this year is the lar
gest yield and evidently the finest
quality raised in Wayne county for the
past four or five years, according to
Mr.. Carpenter. From fourteen to TWEEN
ty five bushels per acre are being yield
ed in this section. Last year the aver
age yield per acre was not more than
ten bushels.
So thick is the wheat and rye that
the weeds have been practically elimi-
mated from the fields and the quality
of straw is better than usual Mr.. Car
penter said
Little Rye Threshed.
Very little rye has been threshed.
The rye brought to the mills thus far
is not as good as last year, though
more of it was sewed last fall than
the previous season. Many farmers are
Tegretting that they did not plant
wheat instead of rye, Mr.. Carpenter
says.
The increasing alfalfa trade in this
section was spoken of by the miller.
Many grains and seed are sold by the
various mills and the increase in the
sale of alfalfa seed has been noted
Though the indications are that the
corn crop will be the largest and best
in years, this is one of the critical
times, according to Mr.. Carpenter.
"Three unusually hot days without
rain might seriously injure the corn
crop, he said. The corn is now begin
ming to tassel and the hot sun might
hurt the tassels to such an extent that
the ears would be stunted.
Scientific Farming.
81 believe farming is done more sci
entifically than ever before. 1t has al
ways been advocated by millers that
good seed be procured and the farm
ers until recently have not regarded
this necessary. The ditching and drain
ing of the farm is also being done on
scientific basis"
Mr.. Carpenter was one of the advo-
Gates of the agricultural agent idea for
Wayne county which resulted in A. d.
Cobb coming here. Recently Cobb Wis
tied the Mormon farm which is under
Mr.. Carpenters supervision. The finest
oats field in this section is said to be

However, Representative Finly H.
Gray, the other one, is not caring, as
he feels that knock which Mulhall
gave him will prove a boost.
In report on April 6, 1911, to Cen
eral Manager Bird of the National AS
ISOLATION of Manufacturers, Mulhall
stated that he had made a careful can
vass of the new House committee on
labor, and added:
Il find that there are but three mem
bers of that committee who will give
us any trouble. Those are Mr.. Wilson
of Pennsylvania, Mr.. Frank Buchanan
of Chicago, and Mr.. Finly H. Gray of
Indiana. Mr.. Buchanan is new mem
Der. This is his first term, and l think
little good work will have him
change his mind"

OF THOSE WHO
HAVE SOLD HEAVILY, CAUSES
AN UPTuRk IN MARKET. NJ

Chicago. Oct 1o.--Uneasiness Of
shorts, to whom the government report
was somewhat disagreeable surprise,
rallied the wheat market today after a
little weakness at the outset. Owing
to the uncertainty regarding the out
come OF recent tariff legislation how
ever, general buying was hindered.
Favorable crop prospects In Argentine
counted also against the bulls.
The opening was unchanged to y
lower and there was slight further
decline, after which prices rose above
yesterdays close. Corn received sub
stantial support from bull leaders and
more than recovered from setback
due to the government report. Open
ing figures were unchanged to Y d y
of and some additional depression en-
sued, but later upturn carried the
market higher than the previous close.
Oats were relatively weak. Longs
