MOT LONG ago blowing the only operation N associated with the tractor. Today, however, there hundreds of uses to which the tractor may be adapted, among them some AZ belt uses, thus converting the tractor from piece of equip ment of seasonable use only to one of constant service. In other words, from machine that orig inally started simyly as piece of ground-ting equipment with yearly period of usefulness cover ing but few weeks, the tractor has developed into a year round machine.

Boy Of Fifteen Writes
$500 Check For Hogs

The firm Of J. Kasper & Son, farmers
Of Medford, Mimi, has just invested
$1,000 in three purebred pigs. The
junior partner of the firm is Valdimore
Kasper, 10 years Of age. Valdimore
has been pig club member for two
years and he knows good pig when
he sees one. So the senior of the firm
handed him the company's check book
and sent him to an auction SALE When
an uncommOnly fine looking gilt was
brought into the ring, the boy ran the
bids up to $3.50. Eventually this pig
was knocked down for 81 600. Valdi-
more was disappointed, but he stayed
by his guns and outbid his competitors
for three likely looking gifts and wrote
his check for $500 for the lot, signing
it J. Kasper & Son. "Its a good days
work and all in the days business"
said the Junior partner as he helped to
load his pigs for the return to the firms
headquarters. Pig club membership in
the boys and girls club work Of this
state has helped to make young Valdi-
more self reliant and independent

he had an average of $50 hens which
produced 26,OO7 eggs, or 2,116 dozens,
which were sold at an average Of 40
cents dozen, or for $S6694. Besides
the eggs, $500 was derived from the
sale Of chickens, and Mr.. Davis and his
family used all the eggs they wanted
Tor their table and for COOKING, and also
consumed between IS and 100 fowls
valued at 81 each. The Davis chicken
ranch is on lots back of the family resi-
denee. The story is not complete, in
that the Star-News ignores the expense
account, but at that it is clear Mr..

THE WAY GERMS PASS FROM
ONE PERSON TO ANOTHER
(By a Red Cross Nurse)

(By a Red Cross NurSe)
Germs are passed around in two ways
either in public, as through milk,
water, food or insects, or in private
ways, Of which the human hand is the
most important Milk, water, or food
which is not kept covered or which has
become infected with the germ Of some
disease may spread this disease through
a whole community
Insects, which feed on decayed fruit,
vegetables or food which are spoiled or
infected.by germs, may spread disease
to hundreds Of people For this reason,
garbage cans should always be kept
tightly covered, and discharges from
the body Of a person who has germ
disease should be destroyed or thoro-
nghly Usinfected. (.
Left over food fromsa patient who
has q germ disease should meyer be
eaten by anyone else. It should always
be burned, and liquid food left on the
tray should be boiled ten minutes be-
fore it IS emptied. 5
OF the private ways the human hand
is by far of the most importance.
After handling patient the greatest
care should be taken to. scrub the hands
Immediately.
Many people wonder why nurses and
doctors often escape contracting the
diseases that their patients have. It is.
partly because they understand how
very important it is to wash the hands,
using soap and water and brush, and
sometimes also disinfectant after.

fected by the germ of that disease.

All Wool and
A Yard Wide

j. b. Groose is an extensive wool
grower and he keeps pretty close tab
on anything that effects wool and sheep
and he discovered the other day that
there was law before Congress that
would be great benefit to everybody
but profteers if it could be passed.
The law is in regard to wool.
Everybody knows that great deal of
the wooden goods we buy today and pay
fancy prices for has not got the quality
OF the woolens-:W used to buy years
ago. The reason for this is that it has
been worn out two or three times be-
for we get to wear it. y
When you buy an all wool suit you
probably get one that is made from
shoddy. ~
ShOddy is made from wooden cloth
that has been worn by someone and
worn out, sold back to the manufact-
urer by the rag man, torn to pieces, re-
carded, respun and woven into cloth
and finally reappears as new wool
suit. Going thru this process two or

ened and otherwise injured. You don't
know it when you buy it and you pay
the fancy wool price for it.
The law before Congress which is
known as The Truth in Fabric Law,
proposes to require every manufacture
er, jobber, wholesaler, ETC., Of wooden
fabrics to, according to certain pre-
scribed rules, truthfully designate the
proportion and presence Of shoddy, Of
cotton and of virgin wool in all fabrics
purported to contain wool.
We believe that this law if enacted
and enforced would be a benefit to the

The Usual Thing
Faithful Hard Working Rural Mail
Carriers Get It In The Neck.

A new ruling has been put into effect
by the postofdce department whereby
rural carriers when they are unable to
traverse their full routes, shall be paid
only according to the number Of miles
Of route covered. If carrier is able
to go cut only four miles on his route
because Of heavy drifts and inclement
weather and returns, although he really
has Travelled eight miles, including the
distance home again, and although he
may have spent the entire day travers-
ing that short distance, he is paid only
ALI Of the carriers have had difficulty
making their routes In the cold, biz
zardly weather the past month, and it
is often necessary for carrier to dig
his horse out Of the snow when the
drifts are deep. Because horse and
a man can face our cold winds only for
limited time, the government docks
the pay check of these hardworking
men, although the full day has been
spent in government services When
carrier is unable to make his full
route he reports at the postoffice and
remains there to distribute his unde-
livered mail in case patron of his
route calls at the postofice for it. It
seems like a very unfair ruling, espec-
tally in view of the manner in which
the government wastes money In inn
mense sums in every other direction

come largely from eastern Euro
pean countries and tho opportunity
for imposition and unlawful practices
will be much increased.
Despite the excellept arguments
advanced we believe that legal aid
should be a municipal function, rath-
er than connected with the admin
Iistration of our courts. The tendency
in many communities to impose extra
judicial duties upon our judges has
not only resulted in a distinct lower
ing Of the judicial dignity. but also
in many cases has nterfered with
tho ability OF our judges to render
prompt. correct and impartial deci,
sions upon legal questions.
The duty Of the municipality, on
the other hand, to conduct q legal aid
bureau Is just as much a civic duty
as cleaning streets and providing
water. A bureau to investigate ana
defend impositions upon the poor and
the ignorant and to furnish proper
and rational defence for men, women
and children without means is just
as much an obligation as 20 fill the
office of District Attorney for Tho
prosecution of crimes, or to provide
a City Solicitor to enforce health
mandates and building restrictions.
Owing to the large number OF first
offenders in crime. Mr.. Tussln said
There is a great need OF a nLhhc
defender In all our large munica-
palities." He foresaw. however taat
| it would be many years before this
office would gencralv adop.cd and
said that until this was tone, duties
of the office should be performed by
a municipal aid bureau.

OFFICIAL LAWYER FOR POOR.
Bar Association Told System Would
Overcome Radiealism.
BY Associated Press.


st. Louis. Aug. 27.--There is a de-
mand in all the great cities of the
United States for the establishment
of municipal legal aid bureaus, Ernest
l.. Trustin, OF Philadelphia, told the
American Bar Association at Its an
nual convention here today. Mr.Tus-
TIM is director OF public works in
Philadelphia. He said the purpose OF
such bureau or department would
be to enable the poor to obtain justice
and the foreigner to be relieved from
imposition, to establish place where
the weak, helpless and ignorant
would have their wrongs righted.
THE development of virile legal
aid association within our great
municipalities is question OF vital
concern to every patriotic citizen"
declared Mr.. Tdstin. 1.-THE need has
become imperative and its creation
and careful development should be
undertaken by all Of our large cities.
'In the past our best authorities
have agreed that social injustice is
responsible for the creation of more
radical enemies to our government
than any other cause.
THE mayor of one Of our largest
cities, who has had great experience,
has stated within few weeks that
trifling misunderstanding concern
ing municipal and social injustice is
responsible for 80 per cent of the ex-
trerne radicalism in the country.

quota to be raised in fifty-one cities,
which he said contained about one

This figure, he contended, had
nothing to do with large amounts
being collected in hundreds of small

tiles. Furthermore" he declared,
"the quotas of some cities had been
considerably exceeded thru the zeal
Of the republican money ratsers."
On this basis, he asserted, he had
ample justification for his charge

Governor Cox charged that Sena-

nominee, had detailed knowledge OF

that the massing Of the big cam

ENDS OWN LIFE
Joseph II. Cox Takes Strychnine at
Newton, and Dead Body is Found
in Hotel Room When Employer
Tries to Learn Why Young Man
Fails to Report For Work.

Newton, Aug. 27-When Lee
Gage, contracting lather, went to the
Miller Hotel this morning to see
why Joseph III. Cox, an employe, had
failed to report for work, Cox was
found dead in his room, q victim of
strychnine poisoning. Coroner M. R
Hammer conducted an inquest and
the jury found that the poison had
been lf-administeyed.
Cox, who was % years old, was a
native of Ira, this county, where also
he was reared He was lather by
trade, and had been working for
Gage for some time. When Cox quit
work last night he.paid he would be

he failed to show up, Cages first
thought was that the young man

in bed.
No cause was found for the act in
any testimony introduced before the
coroner's jury. Cox had not been

ent.
Cox was an ex-service man. He
