THROUGH psychic BOND"
TWINS FEEL SORROWS AND
PLEASURES EACH OTHER
Mrs. Chester Porter, of Baltimore,
and Her Twin Brother, Clarence l..
Marsh, of Akron. Ohio, Feel simi-
lar Experiences in Illness and in
Health.

Through a psychic bond' Mrs.
Chester Porter of Baltimore, and her
twin brother in Akron, Ohio, Clar-
ence L. Marsh, are able to share each
others joys and sorrows!
. Though miles apart, they say they
feel each others griefs and expert
ence each others pleasures and
happiness.
Before her marriage, Mrs. Porter
was Miss Clara l.. Marsh, Frederick,
Md. Their mother, Mrs. A. P. Marsh,
still lives at Frederick, and with the
twins away from her when she
hears from one of them she consid-
ers that she has heard from both
that Us, from the standpoint of their
health, joys and griefs.
When Clarence l.. Marsh was put
under an anesthetic at the University
of Maryland hospital, his mother was
a. his bedside. Knowing her daugh-
ter, Clara, was generally affected by
whatever happened to her twin
brother, she, called up her home in
Frederick and learned her daughter
was also ill and that while her broth
er was under the anesthetic her few
er went u pto 104.
During the war Clarence Marsh
was a lieutenant stationed at Camp
Lee, Va. His sister could at all times
keep track of his movements, she
says, through the medium OF this
pyschic bond. She had other broth
ers in the war. but she knew of their
movements only when she received
letters.
Mrs. Porter said she first discov-
cred this remarkable phenomena
few years ago, while a patient at
the Baltimore hospital. When she
was ill, her brother also suffered.
when my brother is happy, /
also am happy" says Mrs. Porter,
land when l am sad or worried, he
feels the same regardless OF the cir
cumstances which arises causing
these changes of moods. even have
to blow my nose when my twin broth
er has a cold, although there is no
reason for me to have cold"
A few years ago Clarence was at
Fighstown, N, Y. He became Ill and
a physician was called to attend him.
After his recovery he wrote home,
giving details of his illness. The
details correspond with the similar
experience his sister had suffered.
However, fortunately, these twins
experience more joys than sorrows.
They are both the picture Of health.
Clara got married five years ago and
moved here and Clarence was mar
ried a little over a year ago.
In order to further determine just
the extent of this psychic force, the
twins have decided TO keep diary
and compare notes.
The American Genetic association,
Washington, D. c., which makes en-
tensive studies of heredity and the in
fluence of one mind or person upon
arother. has asked the twins TO make
q record Of everything revealed by
the pyschic bond and furnish il with
statistics. This society will also in
terview their mother at Frederick.
She has consented to reveal all the.T
similar experiences from childhood il
order that the record may be preser-
we'd.

LOCATE OIL
BY ELECTRICITY
Current is Used in Detection Of Crude
Oil Instead Of Boring For
the Product as in
Former Times.

New uses for electricity are con-
stantly appearing. One of the latest
is the detection. of crude. oil in the
earth instead OF boring for it. 1t is
stated that crude petroleum has been
located electrically in the shallow
oilfield near Corsicana, Texas, and
that further tests are being made
around Burkburnett. A series of bat
teries is used for the test, the mega
tive terminal being connected to a
wire, which is dropped into dry
waterhole. valley or indentation, and
the positive terminal being con
nected to "land WIRE" which is
used to make contact at various
points ON the surface OF the field in-
yestigated. 1t is stated that the
higher electrical resistance of oil
compared with other constituents OF
the earth, permits it to- be located by
the reduced DETECTION of sensitive
instrument in the circuit.

Discussed.

FORT DODGE, May IS. - Poll
tics oyershadowed industrial questions
at the opening of the state federation
of labor conference here today.
President Fred Garfield injected po-
litical color into the meeting when he
intimated in his initial address that he
opposed endorsement of the national
labor party.
A hot fight over this issue is fore
cast. as some delegates have openly
announced their intention of making
an effort to put the conference on
record as supporting the national la
Dor organization.
The open shop and further union
with famers bodies will be the out
standing questions to come before the
conference, delegates predicted.
Secretary Carl E. Thompson, Of the
Public Ownership league and Colonel
Smith Brookart, were scheduled as
the principal speakers this afternoon.
More than 800 delegates are attend
ing the conference. Representatives
of farmers organizations were seated
as fraternal delegates.

The Secret of Keeping
The Skin Wrinkle Free

The great secret of keeping the
face smooth, wrinkle-free and re-
fined in texture is to use an effective
astringent when the skin shows a
tendency to become Z loose or the
pores to enlarge. The best thing of
the kind is simple solution made by
dissolying an ounce of pure powdered
saxolite in a half-pint of witch-hazel
Used as wash lotion, this promptly
tlghtens the skin, which of course
smooths out the lines and wrinkles
and reduces too large pores.
Large pores, by the way, encour
age 6lackheads, being so easily clog
geo with dirt and CRIME. The lotion
referred to therefore serves as
piackhead preventive. 1t is also val
liable in cases of sagging cheeks and
chin, the astringent action OF course
serving to draw in" the folds and
ooliterate the creases. Powdered
saxolite now being sold by druggists
generally in this country, any woman
can make this lotion herself.

Advertising is commonly thought OF
only in connection with selling COM
but recently - advertising
space has been employed extensively
to sell ideas. This type of adver-
Using has been termed educational
or institutional. Swift & Company
has used both forms extensively dur
ing the last two years.
The institutional advertising Of
Swift & Company has had two OBJ
jectives first, to place the facts of
our business before the public, in or
der to build good will; and, second,
to counteract Misrepresentation and
propaganda directed against this in
dustry We have tried to make this
advertising constructive and the great
est care has been taken to see that
every statement agrees with the facts
and does not misrepresent conditions.
We have been accused of Interior
motives in inaugurating such a wide
spread campaign as we have engaged
in. Some have even accused us of
trying to influence editorial opinion.
In fairness to the American press
wish to 60 on record here as saying
that in placing our institutional ad-
given to the editorial policy of the
paper or magazine. Circulation and
territory have been the only factors
which have Influenced us, for we
have felt that our advertising has
been needed equally in papers which
are friendly and in those which are
antagonistic to the packing industry.
1t has been my experience that the
average editor has been absolutely
by the fact that we were
or were not advertising in his paper.
except of course, as his opinion might
be affected by the facts presented in
the advertisements. On the other
hand, many editors with whom we
have advertised have almost leaned
backwards-have been less outspoken
in favor of the packers, then they
would have been had they not been
afraid that their readers might feel
that they had been unduly influenced
by the financial returns from the
space occupied by our advertisements.
So much for policy. Has the poll
cy paid?
To the casual observer, noting our
recent compromise agreement with
the attorney general, it might seem
we had failed. But the casual OBJ
server hasn't his finger on the pulse
of public opinion as we have. Public
opinion has changed in way which
it is difficult to describe in concrete
terms. Perhaps / approach it when

lizing that there are two sides to the

KEEP MILDEW
FROM GRAPES
SuIphurine Fruit is Often Advisable
And is Said to Result in Con-
siderable Saving in
|. the Vineyard.

Grape mildew or odium attacks the
young tender vine stems and young
grapes and does considerable damage
some years. One cannot tell when
it is going to be destructive and can
not correct the damage AFR it is
done. One can only prevent the mil
dew from developing by use of fine
sulphur.
Use a good sulphuring machine of
which thee are number on the
market, and apply the sulphur as
soon as the new shoots are or 8
inches long. 1t is essential that the
sulphur be we'll distributed but it is
not essential that large quantities of
sulphur is thrown on by hand, it is
left in such quantities on the leaves
that they burn; this does more harm
than good
A rain or heavy wind may make it
necessary to Tesulphur. In case it
does, do not hesitate to go over the
vineyard again, as care in the early
stages may mean quite a saving later
The second sulphuring should be
given just before poisoning or at
blooming time. The third may be
given in two weeks and the fourth
in three weeks after the last.
The number of sulphurings will de-
pend upon the variety and weather
conditions, but as a rule, four SUI
phurings should be sufficient.
The time of day the sulphuring is
done has little or no effect upon re-
suits The fuzz on the leaf and
stem will hold the fine sulphur. 1t
is not necessary to sulphur while the
dew is on. A high wind, however,
that will blow some of the sulphur
too far, is detrimental to good job.

WHY A GREAT PACKING
CONCERN ADVERTlSES
BY Louis r. Swift

packing question and that there is
danger of the American public's bit
ing off its nose to spite its face
Citing fact after fact in our advertise
ments, substantiated in many cases
by government figures, we have
brought fair-minded editors from the
viewpoint where they were seeing in
the findings of the federal trade com
mission proof positive of monopoly
and collision, to a realization that,
while many assertions were made.
practically no conclusive evidence was
given to support these assertions.
The Public and the Ad.
At the same time we have sought
to develop, step by step, the services
rendered by the large packers and the
economic necessity for large, central
lied organizations.
Our campaign has started the pub
lie asking two questions: Are the
packing houses guilty OF monopoly as
the federal trade commission charges
is not their continued existence an
economic necessity to American pro-
gress and welfare? Our two obJec-
tives have been captured and institu-
tional advertising has been our heavy
artillery in this fight for public good
will. We have tested it in critical
period and have found that 1t comes
up to our expectations.
At the same time, there are obsta-
cles that institutional advertising will
not batter down-obstacles that will
come down of their own accordslater.
Among these 7 count the blind fear
in the public mind aroused by our
handling SO many lines of food pro-
duets.
Sinces our success is dependent
upon public good will, and since that
fear did exist and represented public
opinion that was strong for the mo-
ment, we felt it better to make the
compromise with the attorney general
as a concession, although we might
have convinced the American con-
sumner that our business in side lines
was to his interest; and although we
had no doubt at any time that fav-
orable verdict would have been given
US if we had gone into court.
We do not feel that the need for
educational advertising has passed.
As long as batting big business con-
tinues to be a favorite and profitable
sport for political aspirants, paid adj
vertising space will be the most eff
fective way of getting the facts of
big business before the public.
The advertising of ideas and insti-
tutions is still in its infancy, and I
look for a marked increase in this
type of publicity in the future.
