SOME STARTLING MARRIAGE
AND DIVORCE STATISTICS

Washington, March 2O.-Approxi-
mately one out of every nine mar
riages IN the United States is termin-
ated by divorce, according TO figures
compiled by the bureau Of census and
made public today
Excluding South Carolina, where
all laws permitting divorce were re-
pealed IN 1878. the three lowest di-
vorce rates in 1916 for which year
returns are now complete, are shown
for the District Of Columbia
North Carolina and New York.
where the rates were 13 81 and 80
per 100000 respectively The high
est rates were returned for Nevada
Montana and Oregon, which show
607,323 and 225 respectively.
In all states except Maine, West
Virginia, South Carolina, Alabama.
Mississippi, North Dakota, South Da-
kota, and Colorado. the divorce rates
were higher Ia 1916 than in 1905. In
81 per cent Of the eases In 1916 the
divorce was granted 60 the husband,

farms in this state today are valuable
farm implements that have stood un.
protected during the winter OF
course there has been great deterior-
alton because Of this ill-usage, and
the deterioration represents total
loss of good dollars to the farmers
A shed, little oil and grease and
small amount Of time will add
years to farm machinery. Not only
that, but foreign countries are going
in for agriculture on a greater scale
than ever before, and they will be
heavy buyers of farm machinery
This means it is going TO remain high
in price, and goodness knows that as
long as it costs anything at all il is
worth taking care of.-Pampa Week

so careless with their farm tools.

people in the world treat their work

buggies, autos, saddles, harness etc,
take all kinds Of weather the year

kind of treatment shortens the life of

tended as an instrument Of war and
one which has been kept secret until
now, was mentioned by Newton D.
Baker, secretary Of war. during his
speech Monday in Fort Worth. when
he and General Pcyton C. March,
chief of staff of the United States
army, were here to visit Camp Bowie
on an inspection tour Secretary Ba-
ker referred to the invention when
impressing his hearers with the pos
sible horrors of future wars if there
is to be no league Of nations
The invention is an automatic
guide for airplanes and was made in
America, according to Mr. Baker.
When the war ended the invention
had been so nearly perfected that in
actual test an airship without an oc-
eupant was successfully sent on a trip
Of over 100 miles An airplane was
first sent out under control Of nil

Then was sent under the automatic

designated point and it effected the

considered a good shot.
