MAKING HAY.

In making hay the aim should be to
dry the plant with but little exposure
to the sun and to save all the leaves.
The leaves, whether Of grass or a
legume plant are richer infood than
the stems. Exposure to the sun al
SO causes a loss Of the flavoring ma
terial. and it is this that helps make
the hay palatable. The moisture in
the plant naturally passes out thru
the leaves. If they are allowed to dry
first the moisture in the stem cannot
pass out thru them but out thru the

where PATRIOTISM
REALLY COUNTS

The Kokomo Tribune is moved to
remark:
When recalls the flood of angry
denunciation of Lincoln in the war for
the union, and Of Mckinley in the
Spanish-American war, we can but
wonder what we should have to con-
tend with now if the administration
were republican and the democratic
press and partisans had the same ha-
bits their predecessors had in the COS
and the COS"
In This connection, too, it may be
recalled that since the present diff

the country has upheld the hands of
the national administration in a most

democratic papers and all the demo-
cratic leaders in Congress were fight

so viciously that President Wilson was
forced to the h~umiliating e~xpedient of
asking a republican to lead the fight,
Speaker Clark, Leader Kitchin, and
Chairman Dent Of the Committee on
military affairs, having all Of them
lined up in bitter opposition to his
wishes. Throughout the controversy,
however, he had the cordial support
of the republican leaders in and out
of congress and as we'll that Of the
republican press of the country. 1t
is we'll to contrast this attitude with
the democratic attitude during the
civil war and during the Spanish

WEEDS ARE

Weeds have spent their energies de-
veloping fighting power while the
crops have been developed under the
most favorable conditions so that they
could put all their energies into de-
veloping their qualities valuable to
man. They have largely lost their
fighting power. To allow weeas to
grow in the crop is a good deal like
keeping sheep and wolves in the same
enclosure. Swat the weeds and give
the crop a chance that it needs to de-
velop to it's full capacity.

TOMORROW MINSTREL DAY.

Odeon Offers Thanksgiving Day
Lowery's Greater MinstreIs.
Minstrels are not all alike. To be
able to demonstrate that this Is fact,
the public Is urged to attend Lowery's
Greater Minstrels when 1t appears at
the Odeon tomorrow, matinee and
night.
The management Of this famous
colored organization emphasizes the
unusual quality of its wardrobe, both
that worn in its parade and in the per-
formance. The women perhaps will be
the best judges Of this wardrobe and
will appreciate both the value Of the
material used and the skill Of the
designing and work. Never was a
colored minstrel show dressed as IL the
Lowery Greater Mlnstrels, but for 1t
to be any different would be not to be in
line with the high class entertainment
offered. There are a couple Of merton
ious white Ministries but their success
depends largely upon their ability to
initiate the colored race. Therefore the
management Of Lowery's Greater Min
strels conceived the idea Of assembling
thirty five really CLASSIFY, natural and
capable performers of that race, and
consequently an unusual minstrel or
ganization is the result. Watch for the
big free street parade at noon. Odeon.

the property owners rights after sign

after a property owner has signed a
waiver that he can not then pay the
whole paving assessment in any other
way than by the seven-year plan. Such
Is not the case. BY signing a waiver
the property owner loses none Of his
rights and he can pay the whole paving
assessment at any time he desires by
paying the interest on it up to the
date Of payment.

BOTH ARE EXEMPTED

Were Rs-examined by Army Sur

Robert N. McLeland, son Of County
Auditor W. e. McLeland, secretary of
the local exemption board, and w.
Leon Brintnall, have both now been
exempted by the district board. Notice
OF both exemptions were received by
the local board this forenoon. The or
ders for exemption followed a physical
re- examination to which both youn5
men were subjected here Oct. IS by
army surgeons from Camp Dodge.
Reason fer the exemptions are not Civ
en- in the notices, but presumably both
were for physical disabilities, which
were the cause for both being exempted
by the examining physicians Of the
local board.
The cases Of both were appealed
from the exemption by the local physi-
clans by County Attorney Scott for the
government. The result Of this appeal
was that both were held for service by
the district board without the Formally
Of a second physical examination.
Afterwards the denomination was or
dered. Since then McLeland was bad

and mouth by horse, and Brintnall
has been quite seriously sick Of mas

men now in the same class with all
others who have been exempted or dis

tons. All those exempted or discharged
prior to Dec. 15 will be subjected to
denomination, classification and call
as tho they had not been previously

CHARGE FOR DELIVERY
Reynolds G. Sheldon, 1909 West Main
Street, Will Make a Charge Of 5
Cents On Each Order Delivered
After Nov. 80.

The federal trade commission has Ia
ken such complete charge Of the af-
fairs Of the wholesale dealers and made
so many rules for the retailers of gro
ceries, that old methods must be
changed to conform to the new order
of things.
Mr.. Hoover says the Cash and
Carry plan Is the best, but at present
we do not know how to play the game
that way, so will stick to the phone
order system and deliver at the homes
Of our customers, for the nominal
charge of five cents for each order. No
extra charge for office work, or large
orders. A supply large enough for a
week will be delivered at the same price
as a small order. Other stores think
that this system must be adopted by all
grocers, but have not yet decided to
change. Many articles will be sold at
lower prices than formerly, as the gov
eminent insists on a very small profit
being charged-not enough to pay cost
Of doing business in many instances.
