WHISKEY VS..
TOBACCO

1t is said that the fusil oil in
a pint of whisky will kill a
rabbit in ten minutes and the
nicotine in a chew of tobacco
would kill rabbit in one min
ute. Yet there are political re-
formers working" the coun-
try with enough fusil oil in
their hides to stock a picking
vat, and spatting tobacco
juice on their shirt fronts, and
screaming that the country is
going to the bad.-Conway
Farmer.
The editor of The Journal
is not a tobacco chewer, hence
we know nothing by expert
enee of the dangers its habi-
tutes are subject to, but there
is one thing we have noticed
and that is that we never saw
a man get so badly" soused"
in tobacco poison that he
would go out and get into
trouble, try to beat up his
neighbor, commit murder or
break into jail.
The tobacco habit is not
good one by any means, and
very little can be said in its
defense, but when it comes to
comparing it to the whiskey
habit, it is like comparing a
bedbug to a rattlesake.

a signed editorial by w. j.

ton With Increased Prices.
It takes neither an Indian nor the
wilds of an unsettled country to bring
about a good trapping business, for
the farmers boys have it right here in
Boone County.
Trapping was an ordinary occupa-
ton during their grandfathers' time.
1t is again popular, especially since
fur is SO fashionable. For instance,
the skunk is an il~l-favored animal.
but all the same, Milady has made
the hide of that once despised crea-
ture bring as much as So to the trap
per.
While not noted for its trapping,
Boone County might furnish a COM
Portable living by that occupation for
three months in the year at least.
Coon, 'possum, muskrat. mink and
skunk are the principal sources Of
hides. Coon hides bring from IS
cents to 81; 'possum, from rs to rs
cents; muskrat, from Is to 80 cents;
mink, from $3.50 to So: and skunk
from rs cents to SO, depending upon
the size and condition Of the hides.
The season lasts through Novem-
Der, December and January. Most Of
the hides are brought in by the farm
ers' boys, who catch them during
these months, when less work is done
on the farm.
The number of hides brought In de-
ponds upon the prices. Last year.
prices were low and, consequently,
little trappings was done. This year..
however, as fur is worn so much. the
prices are high. and more trapping is
being done.
Another reason for the increase In
the amount of trapping is the heavy
yield Of corn. The muskrats are 30

catch them to get rid of them and. OF
course, are glad to make something
at the same time. Taken all In all.

HORSES wEPT WITH MASTERS
German Gases Make Cavalry Mounts
Burst Into Tears.
By WILLIAM PHILIP sIMMs

UNITED Press STAFF Correspondent
PARIS, Nov. 20 (by mail).-Weep-
ing shells, used by the Germans to
blind the enemy with his W tears.
precipitated in at least one instance
a ludicrous incident.
During a recent weeping-shell bonn
bardment by the Germans, a regiment
of French cavalry dismounted back
of the line of fire. A gust Of wind
caught the sorrowful fumes and watt
ed them gently to where the horses
and cavalrymen we're at their ease.
Suddenly, without apparent reason,
every cavalryman beheld his horse
burst into tears as though the price
of oats had suddenly risen to a figure
beyond equine financial possibilities.
Then. as if in sudden sympathy, the
c~avalrymen also burst into tears.
The situation is declared by the
officers to have been incredibly ludi-
crous. The cavalrymen were impelled
to such gales of laughter at sight of
the crying horses that If the Germans
had attacked at that moment the en-
tire regiment would easily have been
wiped out. So far as could be as
horses and men suffered no
serious consequence from having
availed themselves Of a woman's priv
lege. The distance the fumes had
been carried by the wind reduced
their strength.

The
Country Merchant

We believe in the retail
merchant.
We believe in doing ev-
erything possible to help
the American manufactures
make his goods we'll known
to the buying public
through the dealer.
We believe in making
every customer feel secure
when he buys a product
bearing the advertised trademark
of a reputable manufacturer-and
that security is enhanced when he
buys it from his local merchant
whom he knows and in whom he
has confidence.
We believe that one of the pow
erful assets of the manufacturer
who advertises to the farmer is the
assistance this advertising gives to
the local dealer.
We believe in the retail dealer
as a vital factor in the process of
national distribution.

Difficult To Understand
Changes In Market

Copyright 1915 by the New York Ev.
ening Post.)
New York, Sept. Boa market such
as today's, with early advances Of one
to five points and subsequent decline
of three to ten points in numerous
stocks, followed by subsequent violent
recovery to the, days highest point will
be regarded differently in different
quarters.
To the speculative outside public, the
fact that the violent midday break
brought such heavy buying orders as to
promptly cancel losses, rs the outstand-
fact. Their inference will be that moth.
ing can really shake the market.
The more conservative are more like.
ly to remark that the mere fact Of a
break testifies to the precarious nature
of the present speculation.
The days news was only on the pro
gress Of plans for floating the European
loan. This has no immediate bearing on
stock values, but is Of the utmost inn
portance as an indication of confidence
of our financial houses in the financial
strength and resources Of our country,
II is particularly fortunate for the
borrowing governments that the opera
tion comes at q time when their armies
on the western front are achieving
something.

Confirmation Received
Of Telephone Success

San Francisco, Sept. 30.-Confirma-
tion Of the success Of the experiments
in wireless telephony between Washing
ton and Honolulu last night was re-
ceived by wireless telegraphy today by
the officials Of the American Telephone
and Telegraph company here.
Confirmation in the form OF a tele-
phonic reply could not be received from
the islands last night because there was
only receiving instrument there.
Today's dispatches told tho officials,
and j. j. Carty, the inventor, however,
that the words "hello, hello, hello" and
the numerals "one, two, three -four
and five" could be distinctly heard in
Honolulu shortly after they were spok-
en- in Washington.
"The success Of this achievement" !"
said j. j. Carty, chief engineer for the
American Telephone and Telegraph com
pany, "depends entirely upon high
wave vibrations.
"We can take any ordinary telephone,
hitch IL to our apparatus and 30 modify
the current that II will be strong enough
TO kill any person touching one Of the
wires
~ cannot give out any OF the techni.
cal details because the apparatus Is not
patented, and we must protect ourselves
from haying our ideas stolen.
"Trans.Atlantic wireless telephone
communication is assured as soon as the
European war is settled. Telephoning
by wireless across the continent Is
much more difficult feat than il would
be to talk across the Atlantic.
Communication can now be estab'
lished between points whore 1t is inn
practical TO extend wires. Wireless
telephony will never take the place Of
wire system because of tho interfer'
ence OF atmospheric conditions but IL
may be expected TO supplement them In
many why's

equipped may listen in on the wireless
