THOUSANDS OF CHURCHES WILL
OBSERVE TUBERCULOSIS SUN
DAY.
Seventh Annual Observance on Decem
Der Srd to 10th.

More than 100000 churches and
other religious organizations are ex-
pected to observe tuberculosis Sunday
on December 3rd or 10th, this year
making the seventh annual participa-
tion of religious bodies in an intensive
campaign to educate the public on the
subject of tuberculosis.
Two Sundays have been designated
by. the National Association for the
Study and Prevention of tuberculosis
in order that the churches may choose
the one which will best fit in with their
program of services. These dates come
at the beginning and end of Tubereu-
losis Week, which is conducted under
the direction of the National Associa-
tion. For those worshipping on Satur-
day, December End or 9th have been
set aside.
The fact that tuberculosis Sunday
is an undenominational and non-sectar-
ian movement is being emphasized in
order that all possible religious groups
may be reached. In addition, many So
cial, fraternal and civic organizations
are planning to hold meetings on one
of these days or at other times during
tuberculosis Week. Fifteen hundred
state and local anti-tuberculosis asso-
Citations in every state in the Union
are assisting in arousing enthusiasm
and organizing the campaign so that
on these days the subject of tubereulo-
sis will be presented to the greatest
possible number of people.
1t is estimated that last year 2,000,-
900 pieces of literature were distribut-
ed during tuberculosis Week, a half
million of which were sent out by the
National Association. This year the
Association has prepared sermon on
Indifference to tuberculosis an a

NATIONAL NEWS NOTES.
Brief Bits Of News and Comment on
Men and Women.
How Indiana suppresse Lynching.


Indianapolis, Indiana.-The Washing
ton Qndiana) Herald says: "Many
years ago the state of Indiana passed a
law which operates to remove a sheriff
who permits a mob to take prisoner
away from him. The removal is auto
matte. The burden rests with the sber-
iff to regain his Office by a showing
that he did his whole duty in defense
of his prisoner. Since that time, the
year 1899, there has been but one case
of lynching in Indiana, in which in
stance a mob took a prisoner from a
Sullivan county sheriff and hanged
him. But the prisoner was seized as he
was being brought into the state from
Illinois and before he was placed into
the Jail. >This case happened shortly
after the passing of the law, and there
has been no lynching since. Before
that statute went into effect, the crime
of lynching was common in Indiana.
There is but one county in southern
Indiana, we believe, that has not had
one or more successful appeals to lynch
law. The exception is this county
(Daviess), and there have been some
narrow escapes here, the mobs having
been frustrated several times by brave
and resourceful sheriffs. AS a matter
of fact, sheriffs frequently, if not u.s.
ually, either were in sympathy with
the purpose of the mobs or were indif-
ferent. But they changed their attitude
when the law presented to them the
alternative of losing their offices if
they fail to protect their prisoners
There is not a Jail in Indiana which
is not proof against mob if it is in
charge of a brave sheriff who respects
his oath of Office"

The Lynching Mania.

Washington, D. C.-Another wave of
lynching seems to be sweeping over the
South, Negro women, children and men
alike being ruthlessly slaughtered to
make Southern holiday. These lynch
ings are probably due as much to
"moonshine" whisky and illicit dis
tilling as to any other cause. Honor
able William H. Osborn, Commissioner
of Internal Revenue for the National
Government, points out in recent re-
port that: "Bootlegging is principal
ly carried on in States operating under
local prohibition laws, and appears to
be one of the hardest propositions that
revenue officers are called upon to
solve. This class of violators of the in
ternal revenue law are at no time sta
tionary, but move from place to place,
offering and selling their wares. 1t is
impossible, owing to the limited num-
Der of revenue officers in the field, to
break up this practice entirely, and
without the hearty cooperation of the
local and State authorities, it is be-
lieved that the conditions will grow no
better. As the various States vote
"dry," the operations of the boot
logger grow larger"
In the report of the same Commits
sioner for 1915, he says: "The business
of the moonshiner in whisky in the
Southern States, from the number Of
illicit distilleries reported seized during
the fiscal year ended June 80, 1915, ap-
pears to be increasing"
Then, after giving the names of the
persons killed in connection with the
capture of "moonshiners, the Com
missioner goes on to say: "There does
not appear to be any abatement re-
specting the illegal sale of liquors by
bootleggers." Many reports are re-
ceived in this bureau from the law
abiding elements throughout the coun-
try, reciting conditions as to illegal
sales of liquors in the various loeali-
ties by bootleggers and asking this
bureau to assist them in stamping out
the conditions complained of. These
conditions are largely brought about
by failure of local officers to enforce
the provisions of the State laws gov
erning the manufacture and sale of
liquor"
1t is safe to say the lynchiag evil
in large part grows out of this failure
to enforce the laws of the Country, and
that when crazed with vile whisky
little other encouragement is needed to
work up mob to ego after a niger"

KEEP YOUR EYE ON PREACHERS

At the Purity Congress in Mime
apolis a resolution was adopted recon-
mending "that religious organizations
take greater care in investigating the
moral and spiritual character of men
selected to occupy their pulpits. The
reason given for the resolution was
that scandal has been recently brought
upon the church in numerous cases BY
gross immortality and criminality in
the ranks of the clergy and priest
hood"
According to above even the holy
believe and admit that many of their
clergy are unholy and need watching
But how about God, can't he keep his
representatives honest and moral, and
keep their hands off the forbidden

CANADIAN GRAIN INSPECTION

In the matter of grain inspection
Canada is unique. Grain is not only
stored by grade; it is sold by grade
wholly. This is the most noteworthy
difference between Canada and the
United States i'm connection with grain
marketing. ~
Grading is entirely under the con.
troll of the Dominion Government and
uniform grades are fixed by law for
the whole country. The Canada grain
act, 1912, divides grain into five class
es: no-grade, condemned, rejected.
commercial grade and statutory grade
according to its freedom from moist
ure, heat, dirt and foreign seeds. The
statutory, grades are, however, the
real criterion. They comprise grain
Of the highest quality, and do not
vary from year to year with the crop.
There are four of these for Manitoba
spring wheat; three each for Alberta
red and white winter wheat; three
each for Alberta mixed winter wheat.
There are statutory definitions for
other grains, which can be changed,
too, only by legislation.
The commercial grades mean grain
that because of climatic or other con.
ditions, cannot be included in the
grades provided for in the act. More
particularly it means that the grain
of one year may vary from that of
the preceding year, and that a por-
ton of it cannot therefore be dealt
with under the grades defined in the
act, but must be provided for by
grades defined by the standards

Western spring wheat, for instance,
is divided by the act into four sta

Washington, Oct. Twenty
thousand pure-bred pigs raised by 20,
900 youngsters on 10000 farms!
That is the 1916 outcome Of the de-
partment of agriculture's "pig club
experiment. ..,.. -.
The department, nosing around to
see why swine husbandry was not
profitable in many sections, found
poor stock, bungling and improper
methods largely responsible. -.
For years scientific men of the de.
partment had been writing learned
treatises on hog raising, but farmers
didn't pay much. attention.
In 1910 E. w. Jones, superintend.
emit of the rural schools Of Caddo
Parish, La, started the first pig club
In the United States. The State Agri.
cultural college became interested and
in 1912, the bureau of animal indus.

started. in small way, to cooperate
with the college in the work. BY
1913 the clubs had a membership of
1000 boys and girls.

a position to rely upon the grading
rules current at the time the deals
are made; in other words, the grain
when it is reaped should be graded
on its intrinsic merits according to
rules which should not be changed
from season to season. Canadian
law and practice embody this prin.
ciple. When the weather has been
bad during harvest in Canada and
the quality of the crop has therefore
been deprecated, the statutory
grades have nevertheless not been
changed and the buyers have obtain
ed grain of the quality they expected
and had a right to except" CONNER.

Under Secretary Of Agriculture
Houston. the work has been pushed
rapidly. BY the end of the fiscal year
1916, the clubs had a membership Of
10000 in 10 states.
The club members are required to
secure a pig, feed and care for it
according to instructions, keep rec.
ords Of the amount of feed consumed,
the gains in weight, cost Of the gain
per pound, breeding records, ETC.. /
At the end of the year the members
are required to send reports to the
state pig-club agent, and wherever
possible the pig club member must
show his or her pig at the county fair.
AS a result, pure-bred swine are be-
coming common in many parts Of the
country where heretofore only poor
pigs or none at all were raised. Farm
ers who used to spend thousands Of
dollars each year for meat are now
producing surplus. And pork pack
ing plants are springing up In the
wake Of the pig clubs"

10000 AUTOS ARE

Duplicate Tag Proposition Losing
Money to the State

Ten thousand North Dakota auto
mobiles are paying no tax.
Secretary of State Hall estimates
that at least his number of cars are

loss in revenue to the state through
the use Of duplicate tags; the repaint.
Ing and REMEMBERING of old tags and
the operation of two or more cars un.

Duplicate Tags Mfsused.
The secretary of state Is required
TO furnish each license with two tags,
but the auto owner is not required to
display both tags on his car. The
law probably contemplated that this
would be done, but it made no specific
provision for the doing. Consequent
~ Jones can afford to be liberal and
turn over his extra tag to Neighbor
Brown. The fact that two cars are
operating under the same license
number is not easily detected. \
1t is probable that the secretary of
state and the tax commission will
recommend some very radical chang
es In the present automobile license
law when the legislature convenes
next winter. A system of reporting
car sales which will enable the Sec
Rotary of state to check up owners;
