THROW APPLES IN RIVER?

MONTGOMERY CITY, Mo-, Nov.
|27. - Sam Jordan, lecturer for the.
State Board of Agriculture, address,
ing an audience here Saturday on the
high cost of living, said he had been
told that in st. Louis in one year he
knew of 100000 barrels of apples be-
ing thrown into the river by the deal
ers there for the purpose of keeping
the supply low and the price high.
He said he had reports that not
long ago on a certain day in Kansas
City there were over 800 car loads of
potatoes on the tracks and that more
than 100 car loads had been frozen.
The intimation was that this had been
purposely allowed by certain specula-
tors to keep down the supply.
Jordan stated that he had been told
that each season the dealers in Kan
sas City set day on which no more
old potatoes could be brought by the
consumer, that after that day only
new potatoes could be found on the
market.

Situation. The farmers, one of the
powerful classes of producers IN
country, already are planning a

be few times in history when they
had chance to get a big price

The only recipe for the present

PASTOR GIVES RULES
FOR HAPPY MARRIED LIFE
Baptist Pastor Has Set of Rules
Which He Asserts Will Insure
Domestic Happiness.
RULES FOR HUSBAND AND WIFE
Tells Wife Not to Nag and Warns
Hubby That He is Not to Con-
slider Himself sit"

NEW YORK, Nov. 20. = Ten mat
rimonial commandments for husbands
as put forth by the Rev. Frank Ride
out, pastor of the Second Baptist
Church at Bridgeport, Conn, are de-
signed, he says, to insure perfect we'd
lock. They cover every contingency
that might wreck a happy home, the
pastor thinks, make an insurance pol
icy covering perfect matrimony.
The decalogue for the perfect wife
is:
/. Thou shalt not be spendthrift.
Do not squander thy husbands hard
earned money. 1t is sacred to him
and should be to you.
2. Thou shalt not talk shop when
thy husband returns at night. Re-
member he has had shop all day.
Study politics or base ball so as to
interest him in something new.
3. Thou shalt not fail to have his
meals on time. When the animal is
fed you will have a gentleman to
spend the evening with you.
A. Thou shalt not quiz thy welded
husband. Do the quizzing before the
marriage. Be adriot and he will tell
you all.
5. Thou shalt not nag thy welded
husband. Hit him with an AK. 1t is
more kind.
6. Thou shalt not fail to dress up
for thy husband as thou didst before
thy marriage.
Z. Thou shalt not try to fight thy
husband. The male has always been
the best fighter of the two. Don't
fight. Crying will fetch him sooner.
8. Thou shalt not expect thy hus-
band to apologize - even when he is
wrong. Let it pass. Kiss him and
give him hot steak for supper. Then
forget it.
0. Thou shalt not hesitate to assure
thy husband that he is the greatest
living man, and that thou dost admire
him far more than Hughes or Roose-
welt.
TO- Thou shalt never remind thy
husband of the awful sacrifice thou
didst make to marry him. If thou
ldidst love him then there was no sac.
Irifice.
What the husband must do is set
out as follows:
1. Thou shalt not praise thy
neighbor's wife. Praise thine own,
2. Thou shalt not be stingy with
thy wife. Thou mightest as well be
generous. She earns half the salary
anyway. Thou dost work eight hours
a day, but she never knoweth wher
her work is ended.
4. Thou shalt not share thy love
for thy wife with the booze shop She
deserveth it all.
5. Thou shalt not keep any secrets
from thy wife. Secrets breed sus
picion and wreck condolences.
| 6. Thou shalt not refuse to tall
with thy wife after the days worl
is over. Don't shut up like clam
and, besides, if she wants to talk sht
can't help it.
7. Thou shalt not fail to provide
life insurance for thy wife and chill
,dren.
8. Thou shalt not scold thy wifi
when the meat burns up, as it will
even in the best regulated home
Don't rage, but go out and blow up ;
pr wder mill.
8. Thou shalt not fail to kiss tn,
wife good-by in the morning.
10. Thou shalt not forget through
all the passing years that thy wifi
whom God had given thee as thy com
panion is thy superior

Turkey for the Jail Birds.

To to Editor of the Post-Dispatch:
| herewith wish to enter my objec-
ton (before it is too late) to the city
and state furnishing the inmates of
our city Jail and state penitentiary
with turkey and cranberries on
Thanksgiving day. /, an honest and
paying citizen, cannot afford this
eating myself, and why should | help
nav for such luxuries for bunch of
crooks. | have never been able to
figure out. l think a good scheme
would be to give them nothing on
that day to remind them that it would
be better for them to behave them
selves and be out of Jail on that day
and eat their turkey at home.

Four or five Mcmillan boys will go
to the Y. M. C. A. Convention, which
will be held December 1st, End and

offered half their railroad fares if
they would go, and so far two have
volunteered. They are Frank Nor

Mcmillan is a school which awakes

delegation, but now through the Of
