ton Here on Canning Trip.
Starts Movement for a Local
Contest Among Women.
GOVERNMENT OFFERS PRIZES
Ten Thousand Dollars to Win
ners in Food Campaign.
Matter Before Irene Taylor,
Home Demonstration Agent.

H. D. Hemenway of Washington
D. c.. is in Topeka today to beginsa
movement for local canning contest
He represents the National War Gar
den commission, and is himself a pro-
fessional Gamer and garden agent.
The government is offering to the
people of this country more than $780,
900 in prizes for the best canned pro-
ducts from war gardens. These prizes
are offered in local contests, which
may be either city or county affairs,
and the first prize in local contest
offered for the best canned product
from a war garden is two dollars
worth of thrift stamps and a certifi-
cate issued by the government, which
is said to be more highly valued even
than the prizes with money value.
The plan of the government is to
manage the contests thru existing or
ganizations that have to do with the
The entire country is organized with
county or town societies that lend
encouragement to gardening and can
ming. So it is not necessary to form
any new club thru which the contests
can be operated.
The county home demonstration
agent, Miss Irene Taylor, was visited
this morning by Professor Hemenway,
and the project placed before her.
Hemenway is a practical demonstra-
tor of methods of canning and drying,
and before taking up work for the
government in arranging for prize
contests, he was the state demonstra-
tor in the work OF canning and drying
for the state of Massachusetts,, and he
served also as director of community
canning and garden work for the city
OF Cambridge.
He is spending today in Topeka, and
will go from here to Kansas City. His
work has taken him thru the eastern
states, and to Michigan, Wisconsin,
Illinois and Kansas. He will return
to- Washington after stopping for q
short time in Missouri.

Mailcarrier and Another's Wife
Can Be Together Now.
But 1t Will Be go Days at Coun-
,s - ty Poor Farm.
THEY DISTURBED THE PEACE
That Is Charge Against Couple
From Sylvia.
Story of a POStman Who Passed
Up the. Mail Box.

S. Dinwiddie and Mrs. c. Goforth,
of Sylvia, Kan. will spend sixty days
working on the poor farm north of the
city and repenting of their action in
running away and coming to Topeka.
where they have been living for the
last two days, it was stated today by
Hugh Fisher, county attorney
It's the same ola story. Dinwiddie
was a mail carrier, with a wife and
three children, but Mrs. Goforth
proved too great an attraction for
him, so the officers say. The Goforths
lived about three miles from Sylvia
and every time Dinwiddie had mail for
them he did not stop at the box, but
brought 1t to the house. Mrs. Goforth
told him confidentially that her hus-
band was mean to her and Dinwiddte
sympathized.
Then came the day when Mrs. Co.
forth left home, supposedly to visit
relatives in Missouri. Dinwiddie OBJ
tanned a vacation a few days later.
Friday Goforth himself arrived in
Topeka and communicated with the
police, furnishing them with a descrip-
ton of the couple, then went up on
Kansas avenue and, as luck would
have it, spotted Dinwiddie himself
Husband Watched Them.
For hours he Swallowed the erring
mail carrier, at last tracing him to a
rooming house at 407 Monroe street.
Then he called the police and when
the officers entered the house both
Dlnwiddie and Mrs. Goforth were
serted at the table eating supper. Din
widdie was placed in the county jail
and Mrs. Goforth was left in the care
of Mrs. Delnore McGrath, city police
mstron.
This morning they were brought be-
fore the county attarney. charged with
disturbing the peace, and sentenced to
sixty days work at the poor farm.
Fisher advised Goforth to catch the
first train home.
The couple had registered at the
rocming house as Ed Anderson and
wife O. Atchison. the police say Co.
forth said that he had known of the
couples relations for several weeks
and that while he was i'll in a hospital
for about three months this spring the
visits of the mail carrier had been al
most daily.

MAY SELL OLD TIES
No More VIII Good Fuel Be Wasted
, By Railroads.

Railroads in the central west will
be permitted to sell old ties to individ-
uais under certain restrictions, accord
ing to a letter received by Governor
Capper today from R. H. Ashton of
Chicago, regional director of railroads.
The letter was sent to the governor
following reports that many COM
the waste of fuel.
Millions of tons of railroad ties have
been burned in the last few years,
Governor Capper told Ashton in a
recent letter. If this fuel was con-
served, much of the trouble result
ing from coal shortages could be over
come. For years, tho, the railroads
have refused to permit the sale of ties
to individuals.
Aishton's order applies to all CEN
trail western roads. 1t provides that
ties shall be stored at central points
after they are no longer valuable for
service. They shall be used in build
ing engine fires and for other pur-
poses. Supplies may be apportioned
section firemen and given to farmers
in exchange for maintaining right-of-
way fire guards. Any over supply may
be sold to individuals. In the past
this supply of fuel has been burned
by section crews under direction. of
operating officials of the roads.
Workers in American ship-building
yards have increased in number in
one year from $4,000 to $4,000.

ROSE STOKES WILL
 BE TRIED, FUR HER
 WORDS ON NAY 70

KANSAS CITY, April 23-Mrs. Rose Pastor Stokes, lecturer, and wife of the wealthy socialist, J. G. Phelps Stokes of New York, was arraigned before Judge A. s. Vnn Valkennurg late today and entered plea of not guilty, fol- lowing her indictment on three counts for alleged violation of the espionage act.
 Judge Van Valkenburg set the trial for May 20. Bond was fixed at S10000 which was furnished by surety com pany.
 The maximum penalty for conviction on each count is a fine of $10,000 or inn prisonment for 20 years or both.
 Free in Her Remarks
 Mrs. Stokes was arrested at Willow Springs, Mo, March 2 after she had made an address objectionable to the federal authorities.
 MT. Stokes was present in court and Mrs. Stokes was represented by R. $. Brennan and J. P. Awkward, attorneys of this city.
 One of the causes contributing to the Srrest and subsequent indictment of Mrs. Stokes was the publication of a letter over her signature sent by her to the Kansas City Star in which she s'tih oiiN ii1u DNtli dU Ill., terview previously published by that paper.
 Letter Hurts Her Case | The intearview was obtained when | Mrs. Stokes -as here for an address before the Women's Dining Club. Fol lowing this she spoke in several south ern Missouri towns, until her arrest al Willow Springs.
 In her communication to the Star sht ] said in part:
 | "A heading in this evenings issue O. I the Star reads Mrs Stokes for goye ernment and against war at the sam, time I am not for the government. II the interview that follows I am quoted as having said: I believe the govern ment of the United S:-\es Nhould hay, unqualified support of every citizen il it's war aims
 I made no such statement and be lieve in no such thing. No governmen which is for the profiteers can also b for the people an I am for the people While the government is for the prof iteers.'
 Jacob Frohwerk, formerly of th Missouri Staats Zeitung, who was in dicted on 13 counts for violation of tn espionage act, also pleaded not guilt when arraigned. Carl Gleeser, indicte with him. did not appear in court Bonds of both men were increased fror $2,500 to $5,000.
