Control of Oats Smut.

A good example of the value Of
treating oats for smut as recommend
ed by the University of Missouri Col
lege of Agriculture is found in the
Porter district, Adair County. Forty
acres was rented, 20 acres to one
man and 20 to another. One renter
treated the seed oats and there is
not a trace of smut. The other man
did not treat his seed oats and ten
per cent of his crop has been destroy
ed by smut.

FARMER RUINS HIS CROP

H. W. Curtis was down from Mud
Lake this week, having spent the
summer on his farm. He rented 1t
to a man from California and has
plenty of water for irrigation. He
had thirty-five acres in grain and the
California gentleman irrigated it too
early in the spring when it was doing
very nicely without any water. The
neighbors advised him that that was
a damage to the grain and would not
recover from it. The California
man said he had irrigated before the
other gentleman was born and knew
how to raise crop, so he went on
with the irrigation. AS soon as the
watering was done the grain quit
growing, lost its good color and
never has been revived since. 1t
yielded light crop but never looked
like anything after the watering.

live CAMPAIGN
ON IN WASHINGTON
Although District Is
Voteless Many
Will Vote

WASHINGTON District of
Colbumia-despite the fact that 1t is
voteless-is head over heels in the
presidential campaign.
An active campaign is being car
ried on here by both parties for the
votes-by-mail of both males and fe-
males. Many states are now permit
ting absentee residents to cast their
ballots by post, and large proper
tion of those who dwell in the Dis
trict of Columbia still maintain their
home residences in other states. This
fact has swelled the actual electorate
Of the District. and the result Is a
lively tussle for votes in a District
where ballot boxes are as scarce as
Republican victories in Texas.
A large percentage of those who
work in Washington have taken up
their residence in Virginia and Mary
land, just across the District lines,
and therefore the political battles of
these two states are also being
fought out in the national capital.
Harding and Coolidge clubs have
been organized here, and notwith-
standing the fact that there has been
some petty squabbling as to who is
the real Republican leader in the
District the organizations have
started in upon whirlwind cam
paign.
John F. Costello, Democratic Ma
tional committeeman, has conferred
with Chairman White, of the Demo-
cratic national committee, and is now
outlining vigorous drive to capture
the mail votes of the District of Col
umbia for the Cox and Roosevelt
ticket. Particular pride is taken in
this campaign by the Democrats OF
the District, as they claim that
Franklin D. Roosevelt is District,
product, despite the fact that he is
New York resident. John Costello
and John Colpoys, delegates to the
San Francisco convention from the
District of Columbia, were RESPONSE
BILE for the launching Of the Roose-
velt for vice-president boom.
Campaigning within the District
is leading to a situation which may
call for congressional action. Re-
strictions are placed upon the politi-
cal activities of government en-
ployes and this has led to an ex-
change of fire between some OF the
officials of the Civil Service commits
SIGN and representatives of the Fed
eral Employees union. 1t is probable
that congress may be called upon to
define strictly what political activit-
les are barred for government en-
ployes if the restrictions laid down
by the Civil Service commission do
to meet with the approval of the Of
ficials of the unions of government
employees.
Altho no voting booths will be
open in the District of Columbia next
November, there is going to be lot
of mail ballots cast, and until next
November torchlight parades and
campaign speeches will burst forth
as energetically in voteless Washing
ton as in enfranchised Chicago.

new CARS ADD
TO ROAD WEAR
States To Receive More
Revenue for Road
Repairs

That the present interest in the
construction of new highways should
not divert attention from properly
maintaining highways already inn
proved is a point which the bureau OF
public roads, United States depart
ment of agriculture, has had oc-
casion to emphasize many times in
recent months, particularly in view
of the enormous increase in motor
vehicle traffic which Is taking place.
Cars Increase % Per Cent
The bureau recently completed a
compilation of statistics from all the
states of the Union showing that
there were total of 1866, 446 reg
istered motor cars Gncluding motor
cycles and trucks in the United
States in 1919. This is an increase
of 23 per cent, or 1,41S,S29 motor,
cars over 1913. Such figures indi-
cate that the country's highways are
being used far more than in the past
it is pointed out, and in consequence
added attention must be given to the
repair problem. The increase in the
number Of cars for 1919 over 1918
represents about 10 per cent more
cars than the total number registered
in the entire United States for 1918.
Additional use OF. roads and streets
has, of course, been accompanied by
additional revenue paid to state and
local governments in the form Of IL
cense fees, which in nearly all states
are devoted to highway needs. The
registration and license fees for
automobiles, trucks and motorcycles
in use in 1919 totaled $64,697,-
255,5S-an increase of 20 per cent
over 1918. The total revenues for
New York and Pennsylvania the past
year were about double the revenues
received for all motor vehicle regis
trations and licenses in the entire
United States in 1912.
Repairs Hampered
Certain of the states, notably
Maryland have experienced difficulty
in securing road-building materials
owing to labor shortage, hampered
transportation facilities, etc. Mary
land has had to make special ap-
peal to the interstate commerce COM
mission for aid in getting enough
material shipped in to properly care
for road repairs.

Business men and women are apt
to fall for the peculiar theories ad-
vanced by food faddists. But it isn't
what you eat but what you digest and
assimilate that should command
thought and attention. You may eat
fried eggs, sausage, ham or bacon for
breakfast, and feel tip-top at lunch
time if you follow the meal with a
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablet. OF if your
stomach is full of gas, sour, or has
a gnawing sensation of heaviness in
stead of the keen sense of appetite,
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets relieve
these distresses and introduce you to
the next meal or days work with
a quiet, restful stomach.
Many physicians prescribe these
tablets for Indigestion. dyspepsia, and
other digestive disorders, as they con-
tain harmless properties that work
with an alkaline effect just as the
stomach does when in perfect health
They are particularly adapted for bust

called upon to discuss important bust
ness matters at a luncheon or dinner.

people to work for them.
Dear Mrs. Thompson: am a girl IS
years old and would like to join the
movies. Could you suggest any COM
pany could join? ..-..
Could I join and still be a good
girl?
My girl friend who is Is would also
like to join. Is she too young?
TWO CHUMS.
The moving picture magazines give
the locations Of the different studios.
1t would be wise to chose one near
home so that If the manager does not
think he can use you, you can return
at little expense. Unless your friend
is accompanied by her mother she
would not be given work.
Of course girl can be in the movies
and still remain good" The life is
exciting, however, and it takes a
strong character to resist the many
temptations which are offered.
I would advise you to choose some
other line of work for two or three
years. When you are older you will
have more discretion and will be wiser
to meet the problems of stage life.
