VETERANS OF THREE
WARS IN PARADE
Attorney M. P. Maurice Delivers Ad-
dress, Emphasizing Need of Pres
ervation of Principles of Bill of
Rights-Fine Weather.

Veterans of three wars marched under
the Stars and Stripes in Brattleboro's
Memorial day parade yesterday and dec
GRATED the graves of their comrades, all
of whom served under one flag. The ex-
ercises of the day were more largely at
tended than for several years, the Audi
torium being well filled and larger num-
Der than usual looking on as the parade
passed through Main street 1t was a
great satisfaction to the remnant of the
Grand Army to see so much interest and
20 know that a new organization, the
American Legion, had come into existence
observance when they shall lay it down.
The Spanish war veterans and the Sons
of Veterans, although few in number,
would not allow Memorial day to pass
unnoticed, nor for that matter would
thei public forget the day, but in the
American Legion is the logical body to
Igradually take over the responsibility
These various organizations, accom-
panied by the Brattleboro Military band,
escorted the members of Sedgwick post,
s. A. R., from Grand Army hall to the
Auditorium shortly before 2 o'clock The
| Grand Army men occupied seats in the
middle of the first floor, together with
the Sons of Veterans. The other organ
izations who marched sat on the north
| side and the Woman's Relief corps had
/ seats on the south side.
/ The stage never looked so handsome
las on this occasion, new SCENERY being
used and the American and Legion flags
and flags of the allies being given posi-
lions of prominence, while across the
front of the stage were banked beautiful
| lowers which later were used in decorat-
ing the graves.
1 One stanza of Nearer, Ny God, to Thee,
was played by the band Principal J.
E. Warren was in charge of the program
and presented Rev. H. P Woodin, who
offered prayer. The Soldiers Dream was
rendered by double quartet from the
high school. following which Mr.. Warren
read the order of General Logan, who was
commander in chief of the Grand Army
of the Republic, promulgating Memorial
day, which Mr.. Warren said would be
the sd time the order had been read
At Memorial day celebrations in Brat
Itleboro. Lawrence Brooks of the senior
class of the high school recited Lin
coins Gettysburg address, the Taps was
sung by the double quartet, with piano
land cornet accompaniment.
Attorney Melville p. Maurice, of Brat
tleboro, the speaker of the day, was then
tpresented. He commented upon the fact
that he had not seen so many persons
, tpresent at a Memorial day observance in
several years. He stated that there was
, more to Memorial day than song OF

Declares that Assistant Sec
retary of Labor Nullifies
Act of Congress
is SELF WILLED
AND AUTOCRATIC
Has Perverted Sympathy for
Criminal Anarchists - Releases Self
Confessed Anarchists of Worst Type
to Circulate Among People.

WASHINGTON, June /. ASSOCIATED
Press. Charging that Louis F.. Post,
assistant secretary of labor, had a
"perverted sympathy for the Grim
inal anarchists, Attorney Gen. Palmer
told house committee today that in
dealing with attempts of the govern
ment to rid the company of dangerous
aliens Mr.. Post had employed ''self-
willed and autocratic substitution of
his own mistaken personal viewpoint
for the obligations of the public law.
Mr.. Palmer was testifying before the
rules committee which is investigating
the official conduct of. Mr. Post in de-
portation proceedings.
''It has become perfectly apparent
the attorney general said "that Mr.
Post g course in all the deportation
proceedings has been dictated by his
own personal view that the deportation
law is wrong rather than by any de.
sire or intention to carry out the law
as enacted by the congress. BY his
self f-willed and autocratic substitution
of his mistaken personal viewpoint for
the obligation of public law, by his ha.
bitually tender solieitude for social rev
olutionists and perverted sympathy
for the criminal anarchists of the
country, he has consistently deprived
the people of their day in court in
the enforcement of a law of vital i'm
portance to their peace and safety. BY
his wholesale Jail deliveries and re-
lease of even self confessed anarchists
of the worst type he has utterly null
lifted the purpose of the congress il
passing the deportation statute and
has sci at large amongst the people
the very public enemies whom 1t was
the desire and intention of the congress
to be rid of. ="

Tn order to make a success of rais- ing live stock, the Arkansas farmer should study the possibilities of his farm from all sides and produce all the feed for his stock that he can. Then he should buy those commercial feeds that will round out his rations properly.
 "To do this, however, he must have a knowledge of the values of the diff ferent feeds offered for sale. Many of our farmers lack this knowledge,

SER VICE FOR
 OUR FARMERS
D. E. RHoADs JOINS HAYES FORCES AND WILL WORK IN COMMUNICATION WITH
 FARMERS.

Service for farmers throughout the Little Rock trade territory will be the object of D. D. Rhoads, who has become associated with the Hayes Grain and Commission Company, at the head of the mixed feed depart ment
 MT. Rhodes has ben interested in the sale of mixed feeds and balanced rations in Arkansas for the past ten years. He conducted a brokerage business in Little Rock the past year, merging his business with that of the Hayes Company on the first of July.
 Just as soon as we have eomplet- ed the installation of machinery" says Mr. Rhoads, which is now in progress and rapidly nearing com pletion, we will begin the manufac- ture of full and complete line of horse, dairy, cattle, hog and poultry feeds
 These various feeds will all be placed on the market under the we'll known Hayes Quality Brand and am tackling the job of making this line famous because it produces re- suits" with a great deal of optimism.
 "The feeding of farm animals, like the use of fertilizers for crops, rests upon quite well defined general prin- ciples. My own personal knowledge of these principles has been derived from practical experience in the feed ing of all kinds of live stock, as well as from the studies of the chemist and the animal physiologist, on the composition and functions of food and the way it is utilized after it is eaten.
 "To supply food in the right pro- portion to meet the various require ments of the animal, without a waste of food nutrients, constitutes scien tific feeding. It is by carefully study ing the composition of feeding stuffs, the proportion in which they are di- gested by different animals and un- der different conditions, and the re- quirements of animals for the various food nutrients when at rest, at work, giving milk, producing wool, mutton beef and pork, that the principles of feeding have been worked out. In applying these principles in practice the cost and special adaptations of different feeding stuffs must of course be taken into account.
 "The object sought in the feeding of animals is he conversion of a unit of food into the largest quantity possible of that product-beef or pork, mutton or eggs, etc.-best adapted to the producers commercial oppor- tunities.
 "Out of this necessity was devel- oped the invention of the balanced ration It is regrettable that many so-called balanced rations are not bal anced for the reason that the man who works out the formula lacks the knowledge of the feeding and care of animals based on experience.
 q am inclined to believe that farmers have not given as close study to the feeding problem as they should, for two reasons: First, many of them do not understand the terms employed by teachers, and, second, the information given was not sufficient ly definite and practical to command the confidence of the farmers.

 uorv good time The farmers were .us,llv behind with their crops, and .rons are all very late. While there l .ont to the Zoo and saw everything fr.m an elephant down to canary hra I then went to Tate and DeSoto eo,mties. Miss, for visit. I have two brothers and one sister there, and bost of nephews and nieces and friends. I had a very nice time hunt ing and fishing while there. l did not have very good luck, but did not get hnngry, for they fed me on good old home emade ham, yellowlegged chick ems. eggs and Jersey butter. Crops are very good but very late, and the farmers are behind on account of the big rains in the Spring. M ississippi will not make one-half enough corn to run it. I then continued my trip east through Marshall. Union and Lee Counties to Baldwin, and spent a week with relatives there. Baldwin is very pretty little town. I also stopped at 'Tupelo few hours, and on July 8 I landed back at Brookland, in grand old Arkansas, and spent the Fourth with a brother here. Crops are very good through this part. While east of the Mississippi river Iran up against some awful hard prop Ositi0ns. The people there called me old Arkansas Hoosier, and I told them that I was glad of it, for that is my home, and I told them if I could get them to cross the Mississippi west they would think that they had crossed the mighty deep and had got out of the grand old United States; but not so, just over in dear old Arkansas. the best old saw in the Union.

TOAD RENDERS GOOD SERVICE
Why. II Pays the Gardener and tho
Housewife to Cultivate Friend
ship With Creatures.

Formerly the toad was held to he a
venOmous reptile, but in our own day
its habits have been more carefully
observed and its great value to the
gardener has been established. Inas-
much as the. toad destroys many spe-
cies OF harmful insects we should cul-
tivate its friendship.
Now, every tidy housewife detests the
cOckroach, the mouse and other ver-
min. Two or three domesticated toads
it Is said. will keep the premises clear
of these. The toad is possessed OF a
tmid and retiring disposition, loving
dark corners and shady places, but I'M
der kind treatment becomes quite
tame.
Many instances might be cited Of
pet tOads remaining several years i'm u
family and doing most valuable serv-
ice, with no other compensation than
that Of immunity from persecution.
All that Is necessary to secure the CO.
operation Of the toad, indoors or out,
is to provide 1t with cool and safe re-
treats by day and convenient access
to water. 1t will then go forth to the
performance Of its nocturnal duty
without money or without price"

TO HELP WEATHER PROPHET
Why Erection Of Solar Watch Tower
In Arizona Will Increase Accu-
racy Of Forecasts.

A new solar watch tower Is helng
built by the Smithsonian institution in
the Hala mountains I'm the Arizona
desert from which great things are ex-
pected. In this region the sun shines
FROM cloudless sky almost every day
in the year, SO that daily observa-
tions may be made OF the amount OF
solar radiation. This information will
make 1t possible TO forecast the wealth
er more accurately than ever before.
The same institution has for some
time maintained q similar station ut
Calama, Chill, where conditions are
especially favorable for such Observa-
tions. TIE weather bureau Of Argen-
tine has received daily telegraphic re-
ports from the Chilli station and as
result has enjoyed remarkably accu-
rate weather forecasts, as well as ad-
vance information as to the amount Of
rainfall. BY combining the observa-
tions made in Chill and Arizona the
weather prophet expects TO greatly
increase the accuracy of his forecasts.
