Unarmed but freighted with the heaviest cargo of munitions ever car- ried out of this port and carrying among her 242 passengers six Ameri- cans distributed among her first, sec ond and third class voyagers, the White Star liner Adriatic left New York for England.
 Many in the pierhead throng Won- dered whether she would go the way of the Stephano and the other vic tims of U-53 or would escape that peril and reach Liverpool in safety She was the first big liner to sail since the submarine raids
 That her commander, Captain Jo- seph Ranson, meant to minimize the risk of passing through the danger zone on this side of the ocean. was shown when he brought the Adriatic to anchor off the Ambrose channel lightship and we'll within the three mile limit. It was believed he in tended to wait until nightfall and then, with all lights out, weigh an- chor and start anew, probably taking a different route from the one the Adriatic habitually travels
 All the lifeboats of the upper tier were uncovered, and their ropes were carefully coiled so the boats could be lowered almost instantly.
 The six Americans are MT. and Mrs. Wilson, who travel in the saloon; R. G. Brassington of 319 Canal street and H. A. Emerson. a butter and egg merchant, all of New York, oc- cupying second cabin accommoda- tions, and in the steerage are two Filipinos who are American citizens.
 F'ifty-five of the other passengers are survivors of the British steam ships West Point and Strathdene, sunk off Nantucket by the U-53.
 Tn the 15. 900 tons of freight are sixteen tractor tanks" the new en- zine of war which the British are using on the western front.

SWINDLER RE-ARRESTED
Notorious Henri Rochette, Interna- tionaI Figure, Found Enlisted as NotorcycIist in Army of France

Paris, Oct. IT, 1155 p. m.-The dis appearance of the notorious Henri Rochette, who was sentenced to three years Imprisonment in 1912 in con- nection with vast bucketshop swim dies, has been cleared up by his ar rest at Granville today. Under the name of Georges Bienaime, Rochetts enlisted in Paris as motorcychst In the first month of the war, and was stationed at Amiens.
 The Rochette case was one of the most sensational in the history of the French courts. Rochette was arrestedN in 1908 charged with swindling on ant enormous scale. His operations in- volved more than $20,O00,000, and at his subsequent trial it was stated that some of the most prominent men ln French public life had been either his dupes or his accomplices. A par liamentary inquiry was made into charges that Antoine Monis, former premier, and Joseph Caillaux, formere minister of France, were eXerting their influence to protect the prom oter.
 Rochette disappeared while out on bail and succeeded in reaching Mexico where, it was said, he was welcomed by Francisco Madero, then president to whom he was reported to have rem dered valuable services. The French government demanded his extraditiop, but Rochette was warned in time Thd escaped. Since that time his where abouts have been unknown. A
 The Rochette case was revived irfS 1914 when Gaston Chalmette, editor of the Figaro, was shot to death by the wife of M. Caillaux. The shooting was the result of violent attacks made on Caillaux in the Figaro, and among the charges brought by Calmetto was the old scandal of the former min ister's alleged connection with Ro- chette.

Address Delivered BY Mr. IIoopingarn-
or al Sipnhensnn

The topic that was assigned To me
was Something in the Line of Aids
IN Buying Cattle There are a lot Of
ways OF buying cows and live stock
but first OF all want to say something
about some OF the live stock called
bipeds. These bipeds are supposed TO
run the cows. The farmer Is a big
factor IN saying whether YOU shall
use one system IN selecting COWS or
another Up in our county we ran
farm association and in that farm as
sociation We found that the selection
Of the cows was the important factor
and that there was practically 3 -
times difference between the fellows
that use gray matter in running the
COWS and the fellows that do not.
whether ordinary COWS or what we
term good COWS Every community
must determine what aids they will
use in buying COWS In Ashland the
business men decided they would be
philanthropists and help the farmers
to make plan whereby they would
be provided with enough money TO get
the cows and then could pay for them
on easy installments. The nex1 stage
was TO commercialize IL and develop
II. We wanted plan whereby we
could save some money In dealing for
the farmer in buying COWS. We com
mercialized u by the community buy
ing the cows for the farmer In exam
ming quite carefully the economic

situation OF the locality IN which /
was placed | found that the average
Investment of the farmer Is small and
mo matter how much talk we gave
about getting better sires il all came
back 10 not having the money. This
IS NOT right We must have the money
Tor something that passes AS money.
I'm our communities there are always
certain clubs on people who are able
90 get witch those who are in need and
help them supply themselves This IS
where operation must be crystaliz-
ed 7 discussed tlIe situation from tile
ground ZIP with ten men and wien /

bunch OF men and talk things oyer?"
finally got them together and tried
to study out way of buying these
COWS SO that both the farmer and the
men investing the money would be
benefited We got about dozen men
together and formed live stock or
Eanization called the Mutual Live
Stock Association, of Iron County in
which we have a capital paid in which
forms a reserve fund We have made
arrangements with the banks to ac-
cept notes or credit backed by this as
sociation. We always deposit ten per
cent of the purchase price OF the ami

tmals AZ the close OF the year this
sinking fund would be redistributed
among the purchasers and stock
holders according to the amount OF
business done This organization was
developed and incorporated under Act
III Of 1907. This law was amended
however during the last session. 50
now We are operating uudef 49,
of 1915 The amount Of b1ineNpone
has been determined largely hy the
class Of applications coming in. Our
reason for buying cows Is that we
think Tie more COWS we got into the
community the better Il will be for
the dairy business Tile fixed policy
OF the organization IS that Il IS bc2ier
to keep the purchases down TO
couple Of breeds. The business dur
ing the first year was about $4,000.
The stock purchased last year has all
been registered stock. except that In
the last lot there were seven high
grade Holsteins and one grade
Guernsey. The purpose Of the associa-
ton has been largely the standardiza-
tion of the dairy industry Of the
county. Their aim is 10 co-operat
with the farmers in raising the stann-
ard OF the live stock industry

Frank Forest found the wolf that we
mentioned couple of weeks ago as
having escaped with one OF John
Fribley's traps but the wolf turned
out TO be big fox. The animal had
the trap fastened 60 its foot when
found. In fact the fox had visited one
OF Mr. Forests traps and left his
tracks there which was the reason
for his being caught II took Mr.
Forest nearly two hours to run the
animal down even though the trap
was attached 10 its foot.
