LICENSES COME
A MONTH LATE
Mercer County Hunters win BE
Given Permits Upon AppIi-
cation to Proper Officers,

Official state hunting licenses
have arrived and are being dis
pensed by w. ID. Emerson, Jr., city
clerk. The permits are nearly q
month late, being due here July 1.
Knights of the gun have not
waited for a dilatory state, how
ever. nearly two dozen applying
for licenses before the arrival OF
the official forms. Among the first
to seek a license was Sheriff John
P. Fleming, who devotes a consid-
cradle period each season to hunt
ing and fishing.
Several changes have been ef-
fected in the state fish and game
laws and are being enforced this
season by city and county of1lcials.
A new provision provides that any
person under the age of 16 shall
not be granted a license to hunt
or trap without the consent of
legal guardian or parent. The
new law also provides that trap
pers must have a license separate
and distinct from that of the
huntsman, for which a dollar fee
will be charged. Taxidermists are
also required to have a state per-
NIT to practice their profession, IL
cense fee being IS.
Open seasons for fish and game
have also been changed in several
instances. The Official game and
fish code of Illinois, in force July
1 of this year, fixes open seasons
as follows:
Bob white quaiI-Nov. 10 to Dec.

SHOWERS SAVE
DAY FOR CORN
: ABOUT COUNTY
Prices On Prepared Stock Foods
Rapidly Growing Although Grain
Crops We're Large.

Rains since last Tuesday, in
Guiding today's shower. proved a
godsend to farmers within a radi-
us of ten miles of Rock Island, At
the time the first storm broke in
the south last Tuesday the grow
ers of corn in this vicinity were
commencing to worry about the eff
feet continued drought would have
upon the corn crop. There had
been no damage although the dan
ger was imminent, and at the cru
cial hour the rain came.
The city of Rock Island did not
get the benefit of Tuesdays rain,
owing to a tendency storms have
to follow the division of the Rock
and Mississippi rivers, throwing
them outside of the point of land
upon which this city is situated.
The southern portion of the county
Ieceived much benefit from it 9th
Ter rains some of which this city
saw, completed the work of wet
ting the ground for ten miles
around sufficiently to dispel all
worries over the corn crop, and to
provide it with enough moisture
to counteract all effects Of the dry
spell.
Although the corn production
this year will not be equal to that
Ct last, it is expected to be a good
crop, both according to estimates
of reliable farmers and to govern
ment figures.
All prepared foods for stock are
continually rising, Notwithstanding
the fact that all cereal crops were
big last year and this year. More
over, to an increase of SO on ton
since March, 1919, is soon to, be
added a jump OF SO, wholesalers
are notifying retail merchants. The
communications give no reason for
ne rise, but local dealers would
explain it as the result of bearish
activity upon the Chicago and
eastern grain exchanges.
Yesterday a rise of 81 went into
effect-the wholesale price-when
scratch food raised from SS0.50 to
$3.50. Two years ago this COM
modify sold at s65 to retailers, one
year ago at $65. and at the first
of last year at $50. There was no
increase so marked as that of this
spring during the last several
years.

CATTLE SALES OFF
RESULT OF STRIKE
OF RAILROAD MEN

Colonel z. clearinghouse and
son. auctioneers, will lose two
weeks work due to the strike of
railroad employees.
Cancellation of six sales distrib-
uted over the next two weeks was
made this morning when a tele-
gram was received from Dick ia
cobs, cattleman of Kansas iCty, an
nouncing that due to the walkout
of trainmen it would be impossi-
BILE to ship the cattle as scheduled.
The sales which have been con-
celled and postponed, indefinitely,
include one at Alpha on Thursday,
one at Viola on Friday and one at
Reynolds on Saturday. The re-

attention. 1t is very clear then
that the clothing of the work
ers should not consist merely
of material to protect them
from the icy blasts of winter.

the dews and deluges of heav-

thing of that subtle something
classed style Style is ex-
pensive. Also. there is not
standard of style. There are
not even standards of dress

that $50 per adult male per
annum is not too much for

the United States.
Mothers Sacrifice for Children.
at is interesting to note that
wives spend less for clothes
than husbands until we reach
the higher incomes - about
$500 per year. It is also of
interest that when economies
are necessary they are made
largely at the expense of the
wife's wardrobe. The first baby
makes a cut in the mothers
clothes money. And every ad-
dition to the family cuts deep
er into this item. 1t is scarce
ly fair to say that American
wives prefer clothes and up
holstered parlor furniture to
children. 1t costs money, pain
and sacrifices to bear and rear
children, however, and the
bureau of labor statistics study
shows with startling vividness
the extent to which the mother
is obliged to sacrifice her house
and her personal adornment to
er children"
Cheaply Paid Merely Exist.
Commissioner Meeker presents
figures to show how thu
family lives and the cos
# housing, insurance, health, fue
md amusements. His conclusion:
re these:
From this very brief anal
ysis of the data thus far work
ed up from the cost of living
schedules, it is apparent that
there is no such thing as the
American standard of living in
the sense of a very superior
standard giving all the neces-
saries, many of the comforts,
and a goodly supply of the lux
uries of life. On the contrary,
we find that there are as many
different standards as there
are different incomes and fam
lilies of different sizes. In the
larger income group, the liv-
ing conditions are hard indeed.
The incomes of the lower paid
workers must be increased and
the cost of food, clothing and
housing must be lowered to
enable these families to meet
the higher costs of existence.
Social legislation is needed to
give them better and cheaper
food, clothing, houses, medi-
cal treatment and insurance.
Even in the higher income
groups conditions are not so
easy as they are frequently
pictured to us. Let us not be
fooled by the cry that the
American standard of living is
the highest in the world. Let
us make the minimum living
standard in America one that
will support life and decency
and health"

grows more pork by first producing
more bushels of hard stock fattening
corn.
