HE BLAzED NEWSPAPER TRAIL
Young Ohio Printer Established In.
dianapoIis' First News Dissemina-
tor in 1922, in Log Cabin.

The first newspaper published in
Indianapolis was the indianapolis Ga
zette, started in January, 1922, by Ma
thaniel Bolton, a young printer who
came from Ohio. He was born at
Chillicothe, once an Indian town, and
later for a few years the capital OF
Ohio. He learned the printers trade
there and moved to Indianapolis
year after the capital was located
there. In a reminiscent address many
years later he said:
'The Gazette was established in
buckeye log cabin of but one room,
part of which was occupied for FAM
lily residence. 1t was printed on new
type. The ink was put on with balls
made of dressed deer skin stuffed with
wool. The balls, when out of use,
were kept soft by the application of
raccoon oil. There was no post office
nearer than Connersville, distance of
60 miles; but a private mail was es-
tablished and person employed to go
to Connersville every four weeks to
bring the letters and newspapers. In
February, 1923, the presidents mes
sage, delivered in December, 1922,
came to hand and was published in
the two or three succeeding numbers
of the Gazette. During the year 1922
a United States mail was established,
and in a short time we had our mail
from the East every two weeks unless
detained by high waters" A year
after starting the Gazette Mr.. Bolton
became mail carrier. In his reminis-
cent address he says:
''In 1923, having received a contract
from the postmaster general, l pro-
ceeded with the first United States
mail north of indianapolis to the then
recently deserted village Of Anderson
town. A post office on the route was
established at the home of William
Conner, four miles south Of Mobiles
Vile, and there was another post office
at Strawtown, prairie of consider.

of the Indian village that had been To-
Gated there were still standing"

Germs.
By the time this letter reaches the
readers considerably over half OF this
county's crop will have been bought
up. Indeed three-fourths may have
been taken, at the late rate of buying.
Some packers, in fact, even last week
expressed the belief that Is per cent of
the crop had beer taken. But careful
inquiry shows that their estimates were
away off. 1t is claimed by those in a
position to get good idea on this point
that the General Cigar Co. got more
than enough of the crop to make III, 200
cases and the Eisenlohrs enough to
make nearly 10000 cases. These two
concerns were the heaviest buyers and
with what was bought by other parties
the growers have no reason to complain
of slack buying. Nobody knows how
much more of the crop the big concerns
that have been buying may take yet.
But even if they were to leave the field
there are enough outside parties to-
gether with such local dealers as may
buy to clean up the crop. The con-
Germs now buying will undoubtedly pay
prevailing prices and in order to get
what they want, may bid higher. So
far, not many local packers have been
buying for themselves and it is not
likely many will buy.
It has been stated previously that 30
per cent of the crop was more or less
damaged by hail and frost. Probably
only 10 per cent was badly frosted and
among the rest was great deal OF
sound tobacco The least damaged
crops brought from Is to 18 cents, while
very badly frosted goods brought as
much as II cents. One concern is cred
tied with buying 1900 acres of the dam
aged crop.

HEALTH FOUND In GARDEN
Precipitation That Results Carries
Away Noxious Elements, and
Strength and Vigor Are Certain.

To the man who WOOS her earnestly
nature offers a store of unexpected
gifts. Our thousands of amateur gar
deners who have put in the leisure
hours in their little garden patches
have begun to realize that one OF the
biggest rewards of their labors may
not be the actual produce they will
obtain, valuable as that may be, but
in the less tangible results on their
own bodily and spiritual welfare.
There is health in the soil of Mother
Earth. The perspiration that results
ious elements from your blood.
Strength and vigOr come from contact
with the soil. In this kinship to the
earth is found one reason that nearly
all Of our greatest men have been
country-bred boys. 1t is why farmer
able than youths reared in cities. Do
not be afraid if your hand acquires
few callOuses or q bfownish tint A
well-tanned hand is more fitting sub.
ject for pride than a soft, white, use
less hand. You may meet with some
failures from not knowing the how and
why of things, but there is joy which
cannot fail.
The miracle of planting a seed and
seeing the growth, though a common
thing, contains joy and food for the
heart. Gardening not only brings nour-
ishment for the body and food for the
mind, but it expands the soul.--Mil-
