DROUTH PROVING EXPENSIVE


Washington, February 21.-The
long drought will cost the country
about S5O,0O0,OOO a year. That is the
calculation of the cost of enforcing
prohibition amendment and laws
hereunder, according to announce
ment made in the Senate by Senator
Francis E. Warren, OF Wyoming,
Chairman Of tie Appropriation Com
mittee. -"
Plans for taking care of liquor in
bonded warehouses included building
of new storage establishments where
in it may be better guarded. Bottiing
facilities will have to be provided and
a tax of $6.40 per gallon will be col
lected on stocks as they are taken out
of bond. For removal of stocks con-
trary to law penalties of $500 fine, a
penalty of twice the value of the
liquors removed and in the Courts
discretion up to five years in prison
are provided. Senator Smoot, Of
Utah, declared that it would be bet
ter and cheaper for the Government
to buy the entire 100000 gallons in
storage and hold it till it can be sold
for medicinal and other purposes
that still are legal.

Sweetheart

I loved her from the day we met
Her fragrance floated to my brain
Her presence brought glad hours
again.
I blessed it yet and can't forget
the day we met,
A slender ring of violet
Has bound us fast turnout the
years,
l have no need to dread her tears.
She does not fret when I'm beset
with grievous debt.
She soothes me-, banishes regret,
Allures me into pleasant ways;
The best companion of my days.
No farmerette, nor suffragette :;
not these you bet!
My only pet, my Cigarette.

LALLEY LIGHT and POWER
For Farms and Rural Homes
Announcer emit

We have secured the exclusive fran
chise for selling the well-known Lalley
Electric Light and Power Plant in this
territory.
For some time I'VE have noticed that
the progressive farmers of this section
are realizing that economical and re-
liable electricity is just as important
if not more so-to the proper develop
ment of their farming business and to
the comfort of their homes, as the tele-
phone, the daily mail, the automobile.
and the most valuable labor-saving
farm machinery.
1t is our intention to give the residents
of this community the very best ma
terial and the best of service for its
maintenance.
When we decided to sell an electric
light and power plant. we set out to
secure thst plant which, in our opinion,
had proven itself to be the most reii-
able. the most economical, and in every
way the best investment for ourpatrons.
We chose the Lalley Light plant, ma
troit. Michigan, one of the largest ma
farm electrical equipment.

Toronto, Ont, April 9.-That the
number of II thought it was deer
shooting accidents may be cut to the
minimum and fish and game of the
great Northern Ontario hunting and
fishing district saved from wanton
destruction, the Ontario Outfitters'
and Guides association is being form
ed here. Its members will be licens-
ed and certain territory will be allot-
ted to each. This will enable guides
and their parties to know just who
il in the woods in their neighbOr-
hood and it is expected a great many
shooting fatalities will be eliminat-
ed.
The three main purposes Of the On
tario Outfitters' and Guides Assoc1a-
ton will be:
]. To insure the securing of COM
petent and qualified guides for the
many visiting sportsmen.
2. To insure as far as possible a
uniform rate in charges made by out
filters and guides for their services,
and provide disciplinary measures for
guides who may be guilty of exorbit-
ant charges.
3. To prevent guides from tres
passing upon the rights Of others who
may be established in certain dist
riots. This to eliminate the many
dangers and Inconvenience arising
when other guides at the same time
bring parties into the district already
being hunted by the guide to whom
the territory is allotted.

OLYMPIC ATHLETES
- ! VERY SCARCE IN THE
-. MISSOURI VALLEY
Jackson Scholz Of Missouri
Will Be One Choice
for Belgium

BY George Y. Henger
44H the sport staff of the St. Louis
Himes. written for the United
Press.)
The Missouri Valley conference
contribution to the American Olym-
bio team for the 1920 Antwerp games
promises to be limited to very smail
group of athletes already highly test
ed In American championship events
Unfortunately for the mid-western
athletic circuit "Wonderful Bob
simpson is no longer eligible for
amateur events. He is still connect
ed with the University Of Missouri
where he demonstrates his hurdnng
-prowess but he has passed into the
professional class, and while ne
might make the overseas trip 1t Will
he as a coach, and not rs competitor.
Missouri has long been the leading
track nursery of the conference and
tho Tigers are reasonably certain OF
placing at least two members OF the
varsity team on the American squad.
Jsckson Scholz, a st. Louis boy,
who holds several collegiate indoor
and outdoor dash records, Is the lead
ing sprinter in the entire west: ne
. recently demonstrated his ability In
New York by decfsively trimming
Loren Murchison, A. A. U. titlehold-
er, in a series of races at Madison
Square Garden.
Scholz is unbeatable in the west
and was q winner at the last Pensyl-
vania games. He has replaced Simp-
son 40 Missouri's brightest star on
the cinder paths.
While Howard Drew Is still at
tending Drake university, it Is re-
ported he will never again lace q
running shoe for competition. Next
in line for a place Is bill" Sylvester,
also OF Missouri, and q cousin OF
Simpsons. Tall, broad shouldered,
and q football star. he achieved his
track reputation in the inter-allied
games when he cleared the hurdles
in first place against the pick OF the
military talent in France.
Rodkey of Kansas university is a
likely candidate for the quarter mile.
In a duel meet with Missouri recently
on an indoor track he pulled up an
easy winner in record time. Confer
ence officials expect him to place
among the quarter mile selections.
There does not appear to be half
miller or miller in the entire circuit
whose record entities him to be rec
.ognized for the Belgium tour Cog
will of Kansas has done fair time in
the $50 but nothing to warrant Sc
rious consideration. Another JAY
hawker, Massey. is the leading miller,
but his record indicates he Is yards
and yards behind the eastern dis
tance runners.
Dick Kremer, of Washington, has
represented that school in the discus
and weight events and doubtless will
be given a chance in the Olympic |
trials. Lewis of Missouri mas shown |
