there may be some dope to show how
drink acts upon pitchers. Here is the
composite averages of the men, their
percentage of victories for five years:
'O9 10 II II 10
Drinkers go. .614 6p2 500 574 538
N.-Drinkers .547 ST. 612 sos 633
Possibly have picked some pitch
ers lucky enough to be with winning
clubs; and some drinkers Unlucky
enough to be with losers. As a mat
ter of fact, one fellow on the drink
side has been with a winning team
and he boosts the averages of his fell
lows.
Maybe these figures prove that a
bottle of beer once in a while "ain't
goin' to hurt no one" Anyhow, there
are the figures. Either the vets or
the drys may use them.

sentative w: ]. Macdonald of Mich.<
gan. Macdonald had the temerity to
make a truthful report on the Mui-
hall lobby hearings and the National
Association of Manufacturers. He
also told the truth in Congress about
the Calumet and Hecla strike. With
the help of Heating of Colorado he
forced Congress into the official in
vestigation of Michigan and Colorado.
Now Macdonald finds that there are
all these most powerful influences
arrayed against him in his district to
prevent, if possible, his reelection.
He has nobody with him but the peo-
pie.

DWIGHT DIES-T0 PROBE.

DWIOTI DlES-l " EROBEs
Harvey A. Dwight, former .secre-
tary of the Dwight Brothers Paper
Co., died Saturday night. An inves-
tigatiOn into the cause Of his death is
being made.
Dwight had figured much in the
newspapers: His end came as an in
mate of the Dunning Asylum for the
Insane. When DR.. Joseph Springer,
cOroner's physician, examined him
yesterday he found that the left arm
and two ribs were broken. He i'm
mediately recommended a probe.
DR.. Charles Head, superintendent
of the institution, denied the charge
that Dwight had been treated bru-
tally by the police.
Dwight figured in a sensational
chase before his commitment to the
asylum. When his wife appeared in
Judge Owens court early in the year
and declared him insane his two
brothers got him away to Wisconsin.
After several court fights he was
caught in Mobile, Ala, when he at
tackled a physician on the street.

LAID OFF AT FORD PLANT.
Detroit, Mich, May 16.-AbOUt
5000 men are to be laid off by the
Ford Motor Co. within the next three
weeks, according to a report here to-
day. James COuzens, treasurer Of
the company, is quoted as saying that
the annual slack season in the BUSH

of the force and that 200 to 800 men
would be laid of daily.
According to the plans of the COM
pany, it is said single men will be the
first to go, and every effort will be
made to prevent the working of any
hardship. The men will be notified
of layoff of thirty days, and advised
to get other employment. If they
have. not obtained another job at the
end of thirty days they may return to
the automobile plant and efforts will
be made to furnis hthem with employ
ment there or elsewhere. Married
men who have qualified under the
standard of efficiency set by Henry
Ford in his 100000 proft-sharing
plan will be retained in the jobs as
long as possible.

way of treating colds" Is a new thing
just discovered by members Of the
board of control. They are inoculating
with serum to immunize from CATCH
ing cold down in Kansas, which is still
quite an experimental ground for the
innovations of life.
Didn't know they ever had anything
of the sort until we went to Parsons,
Kan, the other day." said Colonel Nc
Conlogue, but they are using a serum
to immuniZe them from catching cold.
And it works out all right, so they
say. At Parsons the superintendent
had had his child treated with the SER
UNI just few days before. It's a new
thing in the serum proposition"
Members of the board and the state
architect took quite swing-around-
the circle, not in any sense junket,
but journey of serious investigation,
with special reference to the epileptic
colony plans now under way. They
went to Dixon. ILL.,. where they are Just

architect, and saw the new Cook coun-
ty hospital; to Newcastle, Ind, where
they have an epileptic institution we'll
under way; to Cincinnati, where they
have a splendid new hospital for in
sane; to St Louis. to visit the big hos
pital in connection with the university;
and to Parsons, KAN, where an cpl
leptic colony has been in operation a
number Of years. Members Of the

VOLUNTEER WHEAT INFESTED.
Hessian Fly Appears in Southern Iowa
and Fields Must 30 Turned.

Special to Times Republican,.
Ames. Nov. 26.-Latest reports from
the wheat fields in the southern half
of the state indicate serious stu
alton with reference to the Hessian fly.
Volunteer wheat has been found badly
infested, notably in Fremont, Mills,
Montgomery and Page counties. If left
standing until spring, flies emerging
from this volunteer wheat will deposit
eggs in the nearest wheat field. Conse-
quently infested volunteer wheat is =
menace to any other wheat nearby.
"All volunteer wheat should be
plowed up at once" says r. l.. Web
ster Of the agricultural experiment
station. This buries the insects SO
they can not emerge next spring to in
fest other wheat. Dsking alone is not
effective enough. The ground should
be turned bottom side up. Where VOL
unteer wheat can not be plowed up this
fall, this should be done early in
spring. 1t must be done very early.
however, else it will be of no use, for
the flies emerge very early. The best
measure is to do it now"

The despised Eastwood has found its
real mission at last. and will aid in
giving light to the world. It has fig
ured in the poetry and history Of the
fatherland in "Unter den Linden
and thru the alchemy of its blossoms
has reached the American market In
the form of honey. Nurserymen of old
time used it's pliable inner bark to tie
gratis and buds in fruit trees, but the
great problem Of what to do with such
part of the trees as was not required
for wooden shoes and chopping bowls
had not been solved. A few farmers
had utilized the growth as lumber to
put floors in haymows, but the linden
was not by nature fitted for the strenu-
Gus strain OF commonplace existence.
1t was too perishable. Now the Joliet
match factory is buying up this timber
in this part Of Linn county for the
manufacture of matches. Recently the
concern shipped many thousands of
feet from northern Benton county. Its
straight grain, light weight and porous
character, which makes it readily com
bustible, renders the Eastwood the
proper material for matches. 1t will
supplant the spruce and pine and a
good market has been found for a
wasted wood.
Cedar Rapids.
A suit of an unusual character has
been started by Mrs. Clara Heath, wife
Of Milton II. Heath, the tailor, against
Victor X. Riley, manager for Miss
Billie Burke, who appeared at Greene's
opera house Saturday. The notice OF
the suit was served on Manager Riley
at the theater Saturday night by Con-
stable Glib Root The amount Of dam
ages asked will be $4,000. Mrs. Heath
and her young child, who is three years
old. went to the matinee Saturday
a
the entrance to the auditorium. ac-
l-cording to her statement she picked
up the child in her arms and started
to enter the theater. Riley refused to
accept her ticket, she says, SO long
as she had the child. The only ex-
cuse he gave was that the child was
under age. He offered to obtain the
return Of Mrs. Heath's money, but she
Che
reported the matter to her husband
and they consulted attorneys. The
law apparently was against them until
an Iowa statute was discovered regu-
lating the admission OF persons "a
theaters. and the suit is brought under
this statute. Mrs. Heath alleges that
she has been in the habit Of taking her
child to Greene's, and never has been
denied admission before. Her husband
says he 10 prepared to prove that an-
other person was present with child
