A CORRECTION.

In reporting the automobile
accident on the Bridgeport
road, the Telegram in its Sun
day issue unintentionally did
an injustice to Ira ID. starkey,
one OF the managers Of the
Clarksburg Tire Company, by
stating that he was one Of the
occupants of the wrecked ma
chine. Mr.. Starkey was not in
the machine, and knew nothing
of the accident, and the Tele-
gram gladly corrects Its mis-
take.

ECONOMY DRIVE
 FOR FARMERS
Fourth National Conference
 to Meet In Chicago.

An economy campaign of nation wide extent to be started by American farmers at the fourth national confer ence on marketing and farm credits has been called to meet in Chicago Dec 4 to 9 at the Hotel Sherman.
 The campaign will begin with prac- tical plans for checking enormous wastages in marketing farm products. This annual wastage is of $1,00O,000.- GOO magnitude, according to a state ment of the general committee.
 ''The root of it lies in defective local organization of farmers" says the sec retary, Charles w. Holman. of Madi- son. Wis. "and the delegations will work out machinery for getting the local communities more tightly organ ized.'
 Prior to the conference surveys will be made that will show the movement of crops such as live stock, grain. hay. cotton and perishable products. The milk situation in it's relation to city distribution problems will receive at tention.
 The rural credits section will analyZe the scope and limitations of the federal farm loan act so the American farmer may know what to expect under its terms. This section is to conduct hear ings to develop facts as to the status in America of the farm tenant. the farm laborer and the immigrant in his relation to t e land.

The Moves In Chess.

In the number of possible moves chess stands alone among games, and not only is it perfectly safe to say that no living man has ever made even once every possible move. but 1t Is highly improbable that in all the cen turies of the history of the game has every possible move been made. The different ways of playing the first four moves on each side are so numerous that if every man, woman and child in a city of half million population were to set to work playing them at the rate of four moves minute night and day it would be more than year before any one would be able to leave the chessboard.
