his head. The police noted his
plight and gathered him in. He ad-
mitted that in former days he had

toxication. but declared that he had
yielded to public sentiment and quit
drinking. His statements failed to
satisfy his honor, who fined him $40,
and gave him a solemn warning to
follow the directions on the bottle

himself for disorders Of the digestive
system.

WIN HONORs
Prizes in Grain Classes Claimed BY
State Growers.

East Lansing, Dec. Pulling
down far more than their share of
awards in all small grain classes.
and scoring practically clean sweep
in certain fields, Michigan farmers
exhibiting at the Chicago Interna-
tional Hay and Grain Show last
week brought home the lions share
of ,honors. The show, which is held
annually in connection with the fam
Gus international Livestock EXPOSE
tion, is the biggest crops exhibit of
its kind in the country, competitors
from all over the United States and
Canada competing for the $4,000
prize money.
The first twenty-five awards for
exhibits OF rye were pulled down by
Michigan growers, George Hutzler,
of South Manitou, ranking first.
Rosen Rye, Michigan variety de-
veloped by the Michigan Agricult-
ural College some years ago and now
grown all over the country, took 90
of the 30 prizes awarded for rye.
Another triumph for Michigan
came in the wheat judging. Red
Rock Wheat, State product, origin
ated by the plant breeders at M. A.
c., took 9 Of the first Ia awards in
its class.
Fine showihgs were made by state
growers in other small grain classes,
but the biggest victories were re-
corded in the rye and wheat fields.
Charles Laughlin Of Three Oaks,
took first honors for the Northern
District at the show, while A. w.
Jewett, Jr., of Mason, won second
place in clover hay.
An educational exhibit of Michi-
gan crops was one of the outstand-
ing features Of the entire show. This
exhibit, which was prepared by the
Agricultural college, showed the CO.
operation of the college, the Michi-
gan Crop Improvement Association.
and the Seed Department of the
State Farm Bureau in developing,
producing, and marketing fine quail
ity seeds. An idea of the diversity
and scope Of Michigan crops was
given by the exhibit, which attracted
the attention of thousands of visitors
at the big show.
j. F. Cox, head of the Crops De-
partment at NJ. A c., A. l.. Bibbins,
Secretary of the Michigan Crop I'm
provement Association; and II. C.
Rather, college extension specialist in
farm crops, were in Chicago all week
IN charge of the Michigan exhibits.
