CONTROL OF COAL TO END
President Orders Government Price
 Fixing Abandoned April I

Washington, March 25.-With q warning against profiteering, Presi- dent Wilson today ordered abandon ment of government control over b- luminous coal prices, and asked min CTS and operators to negotiate new working agreement on the basis of the majority report of the Coal Strike Settlement Commission.
 The president ordered termination of price control April l, when tho new working agreement becomes eff fective. That will permit at least par tial absorption in coal prices of the increase in miners wages, established at 27 per cent by the commission g majority report. The increase in wages, the commission estimated will entail an added annual cost of $2O0. 100000, and includes the IA per cent increase awarded.

LEGION ASKS $1.5O \ DAY
Executive Committee Has a Substitute
 for $50 Month Plan.

Washington, March 2A. The ex- ecutive Committee of the American Legion tonight put uR to Congress the proposal to pay adjusted compensa- tion to former service men and women at the rate of $1.50 for every day of service,
 Thfs action reversed a previous vote taken by the committee which record cd 37 state representatives in favor of the legislative committees plan for cash relief of Sl a day, which was a. dopted as substitute for the original proposal of $50 month. The commit tees determination to boost relief fol- lowed a general review of composite bill which the Legion will crescent tc | tho House Ways and Means Committee Wednesday, including privileged land settlement, home building aid and ex- tension of vocational training.
 All provisions of the bill except the award of cash based on the period of service were adopted unanimously. Strong opposition developed tonight. however, to the $50 month proposal.

Washington, March 26. - Congress has no constitutional authority to pass over the presidents veto a joint resolution declaring state of peace between the United States and Ger many. Senator Thomas, democrat, Colorado. decared today in the senate,
 The senator said he had heard re- port that leaders in congress planned to adopt such a resolution and ln event of it's G'isapproval to pass it over the presidents veto.
 A resolution so adopted, he said would be ineffective because under the constitution the president is em powered to wage way and therefore must have a part in terminating it

GOOD HORSES NEEDED :
Many Farmers Make No Provision for
 Future, Experts Say.

The thing most needed in the. pro
 d"cs1on of work horses for American
 tarms Is greater care in the selection
 of the stallion and the brood mare, say
 animal husbandry experts of the Unit
 ed States Department of Agriculture
 who have been studying the present
 situation with respect to horses. Not only was there a net decrease of aD- proXimately 383 ,000 in the number of horses on farms on January 1, com.
 pared with year ago, but the ex- perts are of the opinion that there mas been an even more marked de- crease in the number of mares bred during 1919. The extent of this de- crease can not be accurately deter mined until the colt crop of 1920 is estimated. However, if the decline in breeding is as great as conditions now indicate, the country will be confront ed with seriously depleted supply of good horses within the next few years.
 Many farmers are using up their work stock without making any pro- vision for the future. Such a policy | is short sighted and will have seri- ous results, according to Department | )f Agriculture representatives The l present need is to increase the per- ,entage of efficient horses by careful selection of parents. One of the prin- 'ipal factors from which the market s suffering is the breeding of too pany low grade work animals. There S strong demand for highbred hor- 'es, at good prices, the department 'ays.

FARMERS SHOULD PLANT
 PLENTY OF COWPEAS
COwpeas are Selling at High Mark But Experts Say Plant Them
 Just the Same.

Little Rock, March 27.-Even though coWpea seed continue scarce, Arkan- sas farmers should not neglect to ob- tain enough seed for planting limited acreage. Seed is being quoted at $6 to $7 per bushel Much of the seed available is somewhat mixed with diff are scarce
 Even with high price of seed, few acres of cowpeas should be planted to maintain the seed supply, otherwise the present high price of cowpea seed is likely to continue for several years. The cowpea crop is altogether too inn portant to Arkansas agriculture to run risk of a continuous shortage of seed supply.
 The high priced cowpea seed may be planted in rows 36 to 42 inches apart in which case one bushel will seed from two to four acres, depend- ing on the variety used and thickness of planting.
 By keeping in touch with the differ ent sources both in the state and in adjoining states, it is possible to se> cure enough seed to plant many seed patches of the crop in every county Persons wishing information concerns ing sources of cowpea seed should write to L. w. Osborn, Secretary, Ar kansas Seed Growers Association, at , Fayetteville, Arkansas. Seed stocks of Griot New Era, Whippoorwill, and Bradham certainly deserve to be in creased in the state.
 One of the chief difficulties with cowpea seed in the past has been the uneconomical methods used in har- vesting the seed. High price of labor is going to make hand-picked seed al expensive proposition. Persons grow i ing cowpeas for seed may adapt ! common grain thresher for threshins the crop, or community may bu, special cowpea and soy bean thrcsh CT.

was visiting the ruins of an ancient
church and graveyard. Digging on
the side of the tomb he uncovered q

"A short time ago the unusual weight
OF the largest of these coins was noted
and scraping off the sediment the
golden surface of the coin itself was

tests, and it is too ancient to be found
IN any of Mrs. Kipp's coin books.
On one side letter S and a human
ngure can be discerned, and the 9th
