that they had been sending down mes

was telling your fortunes.

District Chosen Headquarters
for Fight to Break Up
"SoIid" States.

Washington has been chosen as
Southern headquarters of the Re-
publican National Committee. Chair
man Will Hays announced last night.
The campaign for breaking the
"Solid South" in the coming Presl-
Dental campaign Will be directed
from the Washington headquarters
Chairman Hays decided, after having
heard arguments from many Soutn-
ern Republicans as to the strategic
possibilities of Atlanta birmingham
or New Orleans.
Selection of Washington was made
on the theory that there was so
much rivalry among Southern Re-
publicans to get headquarters Tor
their respective States that IT would
keen down friction to establish head
quarters here.
Former Senator Marion Butler OF
North Carolina, who first urged estap-
lishment of Southern headquarters
preferably in North Carolina or Geor-
gia. made the announcement OF the
Hays decision. Mr.. Butler said the
psychological effect would have been
better had the Republicans gone INTO
some Southern State, but the south
had won victory by getting special
recognition from the Republican COM
mittee.
Mr.. Butler suggested that Atlanta
might well have been selected as a
compromise instead of Washington,
but the great thing is the South is
at last recognized with "A distinct ana
separate headquarters" Washington
headquarters, Mr. Butler said. would
be very active and go into every
Southern state.

years ago was looked upon as i'm
possible today Is credited even in the
most ignorant or unscientifc circles.
The latest thing Is aerial music"
All you need In your home Is a
small wireless telephone apparatus,
with wires run into the room where
you want the music to be played
with an ordinary graphophone horn
and by simply turning on switch
you can have as good concert as one
would wish.
Every Friday evening from so to
II o'clock the Bureau OF Standards
sends out a concert, which Is picked
up by wireless stations within a
radius of 100 miles. The bureau haS
been experimenting with the wireless
music for several months, and has
reached such an advanced stage OF
deyelopmcnt that further investiga
ton TO them Is useless, and they ar.
going to discontinue the concerts
The officials of the Bureau OF stand

a thing, and have given 1t to the
world, they stop and start some new
experimentation or investigation.

HOG NOW MEASURED
BY BUSHELS
OF CORN

Measuring the price of hogs in
bushels of corn instead of in dollars
is a form OF applied mathematics
used by the United States Depart
ment of Agriculture in keeping tab
on the prices of farm products.
Theoretically, 100 pounds OF live
hogs should be worth about thirteen
bushels OF corn. The ratio varies.
II is generally highest In the corn
belt and lowest in New England,
the far South. and the far West. .
At the present time the ratio is
unusually narrow 49, that Is, 100
pounds of hog Is not worth as many
bushels OF corn as usual. Depart
ment experts draw the inference
that during the next twelve months
hogs will advance more than corn
or corn will decline more than hogs.
