SIX HORSES ARE
BURNED IN FIRE
Livery Barn Of Robert Biggs
Entirely Destroyed By Fire
This Morning

DANvlLLE, Aug. 13-Fire com.
pIetely destroyed the Robert Biggs
livery barn In Buckeye City at 1915
this morning.
Six horses were burned to death In
the fire.
In addition, two automobiles, sew.
eral busgies and large amount OF
hay and grain we're destroyed.
The origin of the fire Is a mystery
The whole structure was in mass OF
flames before It was discovered and
1t was impossible to save any of the
contents of the barn.
The flames spread to the Cochran
elevator and it was thought for few
minutes that this building would be
destroyed. However, residents of the
village turned out and saved the
structure.
The loss to the Riggs barn was
about $1,000.
The insurance carried by Mr.. Biggs
amounted to $2,450

RACE HORSES ARRIVE
At FAIR GROUNDS
Judge Critchfield To Have
New Stopper On Track
This Year

The race horses for the contests
on the turf at the Knox county fair
are already beginning to arrive on the
scene and are on the track every day.
working out for the great races of
next week.
Judge B. M. Critchfield will appear
on the track this year with n new
horse, Billy Sunday, 2:19A, for which
he traded his fine racing horse, Gum
drop, while racing last week at the
Urbana races. The new horse is a
beauty and will be the surprise Of the
tracks.
Loyal W., owned by r. b. Wilson
of Fredericktown, was sent to Zanes-
vile this week to enter the races
there the latter part of the week.
The horse made the trip in big au-
tomobile especially prepared for his
passage. He is expected to win some
good money at the races.
Lady A., owned by T.. j. Case of
Granville. o.. and trained by James
Webb, has arrived on the local
ground and has begun intensive train
ing for the coming races next week.
Little Star, owned by Sam Mason
of Ashley, o., is now snugly located at
the fair grounds and is doing her best
to keep her in fine condition for the
races that she will enter next week.
White Sox, the senior of them all
is back in his old stall and is making
ready for the races of his life. He is
one of the horses that thrilled the
race fans years ago, and the owners
are confident that he can show some
of the younger set where to go in a
race. The owners will not reveal
their names at the present time, but
the fans will see them when races be
gin next week. White Sox is bound
to be one of the great drawing cards
OF the races and everyone needs tt
be on the lookout for this famous
racer

sure hold on the farmers directions
"Horse sense" gives n value to the mo-
tive power Of horses that will never
be gotten out of mechanical power.
Then there is the value of the mare as
an investment in the breeding indus
try.
A good mare will produce a colt a
year which will be worth far more to
the owner than the time that he is de-
prived of her services on the farm as
a worker
This condition existing between the
tractor and the horse is born out in
Knox county. Dealers estimate that
the number of tractors of all makes
! now in use in this county number
about 55, or co. and that they are in
creasing very slowly for wealthy
county. The number of horses in the
county has remained stationary for
the last two years, and the figure is
| approximately 1854 horses and 279
| mules.

ENTRIES COMING IN

The progress of the improvements

Gently are surprised mt the newness
of the whole park. The track Is be-
ing worked every day and by the day
of the opening races 1t will be in first
class condition and ready for the fast
est races In the state.
The entries are now coming In u.'
ter fashion that is highly pleasing
to the promoters OF the fair. Many
have entered their fine chickens.
their rabbits and their cattle. Aud to
show that the good women are up to
the top on every principle OF eflicien'
cy, il can be stated that one woman
has already made "a entries. all OF a
separate nature, and another has
made 80. These two women deserve
all the praise OF the county and are
inspiring examples of home count,
patriotism. When the goods of the
county Is finally on display the prod
acts that represent the efforts o
these two ladies ought to have spec

pYRAMlDINo SHOE PROFITS

Recent arguments OF shoe-industry
representatives to the effect that
there IN no proiiteering in shoes In
spite of high prices seem discredited
by the report of the federal trade
commission. The report covers the
shoe business for the last four years.
II charges that there has been eXtor'
ton all along the line-that the pack
ers and other slaughterers have
charged too much for the hides, the
tanners have charged too much for
their leather, and the iobbers, whole
salers and retailers, In turn, have all
taken more toll than they deserved
all of which, of couse, comes out OF
the final price paid by the shoe-wear
ing public.
The commission suggests more rig
i'd enforcement of the anti.monopol,
laws against the manufacturers, will
some new legislation on the subject
and n system of publicity of sho'
costs. 10 that purchaser could tel
when he was being charged too much
These suggestions have obvious mer

WHAT THE POOR DON'T EAT

Many housewife, appalled, at ihe
inroads made even on comfortable
income by the cost of foodstuffs, has
remarked Il wonder how those who
are really poor manage to get along,
and what they live on"
An investigation, made in New
York, said to represent "a fairly typ
ical crOss.sectiOn of the city, FUR
nishes an illuminating, though mega
tive. answer to the question. The
investigators have reported on the
kind of food eaten by a little more
than 1000 families, half of whom
have incomes of less than $500 year
and three-fourths of whom have less
than $1,000.
II was found that SO7 families, or
more than one-third of ALL did not eat
any meat whatever.
In 8S2 families, or about 40 per
cent, there were no eggs eaten.
There were 6l5 families that used
no butter and 143 that used no su-
gar.
In one family out Of every seven
there was no milk.
The results on the health of the
working members OF the families ana
on the development of the children
may readily be imagined Most nu
thorities agree that some meat Is es
sential for the normal growth Of
child, and still more essential are
milk, eggs and butter.
This limited diet is serious enough
in the summer and still more ser
ious In the winter, or in time or sicK
ness. The director of the New Yorl
health bureau believes that the raw
ages of influenza would have far les
severe if 80 many thousands OF pee
pie had not had to deny themselve
the kind OF food they needed.
1t IN bad outlook for next winte
unless the authorities now concer
trating on the fod problem can Il
something to reemdy the situation.

horse and his rival the tractor. Per-
haps It is wrong to call the tractor
rival of the horse in that In the end
there will be not rivalry but just the
adjustment of both to the work to
which they are each the best fitted to
do.
In 1918 the country produced 21,555,-
600 horses. and exported S4,765 Of this
number. In the same year this coun-
try manufactured 132,390 farm trac-
tors, for use on the great farms of this
country. In 1919, it is estimated that
this country will produce 21,534,OOO
| horses and export 1891 of this num-
ber. The number of tractors that it is
estimated that this will manufacture
in this year is 314,963. So in the great
, est of all motorized years SO far in the
worlds history the production of hors
es kept at about the same figure, des
pite the fact that thousands of the
best horses were shipped to urope for
war purposes.
The great decrease in many Of the
larger cities were due to these wal
shipments, and will this year be made
up again, because large numbers OF
horses are used in the cities to do the
hauling in the contested districts
where speed is newt to impossible.
And the reason that the motor will
never replace the horse on the farm is
because of he horses greater versatile
ty and flexibility in all kinds of farm
work. The inventors have not invent
