bility that the whole battle cruiser

penditure Of nearly a billion dollars,
Will be abandoned in favor Of a new
type Of cruiser battleship was indi-
Gated today by an announcement that
Secretary Daniels had ordered sus-
pension OF work on the six thirty-five
knot cruisers already authorized un-
Til decision as to the future type of
capital ship could be reached.
There Is a wide difference Of opin-
ion among American naval officers as
to whether the slow battle ship and
the fast cruiser should not give way
in the future to ship combining the
power of one and nearly the speed
of the other.
Advice In Europe.
Because of this fact congressional
committees have deferred action on
six additional cruisers until a full
report Of new types can be made by
the department.
1t Is to gather Information for this
report that Secretary Daniels and his
three chief technical advisers will sail
Saturday for Europe. They will be

Sims, and upon their return a general
conference will be held, at which a
majority opinion of experienced Off
GERS will be worked out as to the
types of capital ships which should
be built.

Disabled Service Men in Wayne County
to be Giiuen New Chance at Vocation

The federal vocational board CO
operating with the home service de-
partment of the American Red Cross
is taking active steps toward fitting
disabled Wayne county soldiers and
sailors who are unable to resume
their former work, to enter into new
lines Of work.
WIN J, McKeown, of Anderson, who
has charge of this work in the Lake
Division, and who was in Richmond
q few weeks ago in its interest, will
return again on Wednesday of this
week to meet and consult with any
Wayne county boys who have been
disabled while in the service. Mr..

Red Cross headquarters in the Ma
sonic temple.
In order that every disabled service
man who Is not able to continue in
the work he did before entering the
service, may resume his useful cit
izenship, It Is urged that all such
men come to the Red Cross headquar-
tiers tomorrow and discuss their plans
with Mr. McKeown, who takes very
active as well as authoritative interest
in this work.
Four Wayne county men have sign
ed up for rehabilitation work. One
Richmond boy is now taking a course
at Valparaiso university, and any
others will be given the best training
possible in any line for which they
show aptitude, or have a desire to
enter. One Of the biggest problems
lies in finding out just what the re-
turned soldier is best fitted to do. In
many cases the examined soldier has
accidentally discovered vocation
which he should, so far as natural
inclinations have been concerned,
have followed years before, said one
of the national workers in regard to
this work.
ut is strange how many men have
missed their vocations altogether,
and when no longer able to follow
the work which they had been doing,
have awakened to new inclinations
which are much stronger than used in
this other work. Finding ones self
is a great thing at any time, but when
a fellow can no longer do what he
has been doing and runs across some

In the larger cities and in some OF

have put very practical ideas into OPP

the poorer members of the community,
without making them objects OF char

drives were made for clothing for the
Belgians and French of the devastated
regions. that nearly everyone had
clothing that could be spared. IT is
almost a crime to keep garments that

January is the month in which most

But aIl-white undertakings will not
hold the center of the stage all the

ESTIMATE VALUE OF MANURE
Where Fertilizer is Not Used Lands
Become Worth Less Than I'M
provements on Them.

1t has always been difficult to deter
mine just how much a load of barn
yard manure IS worth In the eyes
of some farmers ii has always been
invaluable. In the eyes of others 1t
has been valueless.
In a general way manure Is just val
liable enough so that where It Is used
lands increase In value from both pro-
ductive and monetary standpoints,
while where 1t is not used, lands be-
come worth less than the cost of the
improvements on them. This is no
idle platitude. The history OF all
countries proves its truth conclu-
sive1y.
The value of q load of manure is
dependent upon two factors: the price
of land and the price of farm prod
ucts. Farm lands are increasing in
price by leaps and bounds farm prod
ucts are continuing to soar skyward
There was never time when load
of harnyard manure was such a val
liable treasure as it is now. 1t has
always been the dividing line between
profit and loss; today 1t is the divid-
ing line between prosperity and bank
ruptcy.
