Why CHICAGO IS
LOSING ITS Trees

The reformers of Chicago are re.
sponsible for the rapid disappearance
Of trees from the city streets. All
OF the trees were planted at the per-
sonal expense of householders. The
reformers had a city ordinance passed
by the City Council forbidding the
planting Of trees without permit
which the citizen would have to go to
the City Hall and pay for The tree
owner is also prohibited by this ordi-
nance from trimming or spraying his
trees without paying for City Hall
permit Hence in the name of graft
and reform, city trees are dying off. A
defunct daily newspaper that was de-
voted to dolly reforms and that died
OF overwork in this direction was re-
sponsible for this outrageous ordi-
nance on account of its influence with
feeble minded aldermen.

Beats Gasoline at
 IS Cents a Gallon

New Invention Makes FOrds Run 34
 Miles on Gallon of Gasoline and
 Start Easy fin Coolest Weather -
 Other Cars Show PrOpOrtiOnate Savings.
 A new carburetor which cuts down gas soline consumption of any motor, including the Ford, and reduces gaso- line bills from one-third to one-half is the proud achievement of the Air Friction Corburetor Co.,, 3020 Madison St. Dayton, Ohio. This remarkable in- vention not only increases the power of all motors from 30 per cent to 50 per cent, but enables everyone to run slow on high gear. It makes also it easy to start Ford or any other car in the coldest weather without pre- viously warming the noror. With it you can use the very cheapest grade of gasoline or half gasoline and half kerosene and still get more power and more mileage than you now get from the highest test gasoline. Many Ford owners say they now get as high as 45 to 50 miles to a gallon of gaso- oline. So sure are the manufacturers of the immense saving their new carb- uretor will make that they offer to send it on 30 days trial to every car owner, As it can be put on or taken off in a few minutes by anyone, all readers who want to try it should send then name, address and make of car to the manufacturers at once.

BANKERS OF STATE TO
 ASSIST THE FARMERS
Arkansas Bankers Will Help Farmers To Reduce Cotton Acreage in
 Next Planting eason.

Little Rock, Nov. 17.-(SpeciaD D-At largely attended special meeting ol the Arkansas Bankers Association held here yesterday, important action was taken with relation to the agricultural conditions of the state. The associa- tion went on record in support of:
 "The finance corporation being or, ganized in the South under the provis- ions of the Edge bill with capital stock of s6,oOO, 900 to promote the mar keting of the South's crops.
 "The plans and objectives of the Ar kansas Division of the American Cot ton Association, which is being organ ized in every county of the state.
 Favor Reduction of Cotton.
 "A 33 1-3 per cent reduction in the cotton acreage of the state, the land thus released from cotton to be planted in food and feed crops The greatest discussion arose over the question of crop reduction, Nathan Adams. a Dallas, Texas, banker and president of the Texas Division made one of the strongest talks of the meeting and in sisted that the bankers of the South must demand reduction in cotton acreage if the desired results are to be obtained After thorough discussion of the subject, the following resolu- tions, presented by w. A. Hicks of Little Rock were unanimously adopted:
 Be it reolved that we recommend the reduction of the cotton acreage in the state of Arkansas for the year 1921, thirty-three and one-third per cent planting the reduction to food and feed crop and intensified farming on the entire acreage and that the officials of the association endeavor to obtain pledges from all members to assist in their communities to bring about this condition
 That we endorse the efforts that of the Cotton Association follows:

Topeka, Kan, Nov, 17-J. H. Mercer, state live stock sanitary commissioner and secretary of the Kansas Live Stock Association, who several days ago sent out letters urging the forma- tion of an association to finance the foreign marketing of live stock pro- ducers, today received a letter from W. P. G. Harding, governor of the fed eral reserve bank board at Washing ton, D. C., promising assistance in the plan.
 Governor Harding suggested that such trading company might not be able to get a federal charter under the Edge act and in this case he sug- gested the advisability of operating under some state law.
 'The board has always recognized the importance of sustaining the Am- erfcan live stock industry" said Gov. Harding's letter. "It has repeatedly advised the federal reserve banks to do what they could legitimately to as- sist by rediscounting eligible paper for the banks. Members of the board have also had conferences with prominent bankers and I am informed that steps were taken in Chicago few days ago to organize a $30,0O0,000 pool to assist the cattle loan companies in taking care of their obligations without forc- ing the slaughter of breeding COWS"
