TELL TROUBLES

They Will Be Glad to Help Stamp
Out Reckless Driving Evil,
One of Their Number
States Today.

Keokuk people who know of viola
tions Of the traffic regulations, in
stances of reckless driving, or any
other violations of the speed law are
asked to report their knowledge to
the city commissioners. One Of the
commissioners said today that the
council was a unit in stamping out
this evil, and asked for the co-opera-
ton of the people of the city in help
ing get at the root of the evil.
'If people who see violations of the
law will take the number of the car,
or the name OF the driver and re-
port it to the city council, we will
see that the matter is taken up anc
fled" he said. .-

NEW CADILLAC CAR
BURETION INCREASES
EFFICIENCY
Easier Cold Weather Starting,
More Power, More Mileage.

In the matter of carburetion in
the new type SO, engineers Of the
Cadillac Motor Car Company have
introduced what they believe to
be the ''last word" or in any event,
the last word as far as scientific
research has as yet been able to
accomplish.
Heretofore the intake manifold
has been surrounded by jacket
through which hot water was cir
culated, This has been replaced
by a jacket through which the hot
exhaust gases from the cylinders
are caused to surge back and
forth.
The Cadillac lays particular
emphasis on the fact that instead
of using a small over-heated area
to vaporize the gasoline, the new
device utilizes a large heated
area.
The advantage of this may be
better understood by realizing
that a gallon Of water will be va
porized into steam much more
quickly if the water be placed in
a flat pan an inch deep and heat
applied to the entire under sur
face than it would II that water
were placed in a vessel, say, six
inches square and four inches
high.
In other words, the fuel is much
more quickly and more thorough.
Iy vaporized by passing over a
large heated area than it would
over a small surface, notwith-
standing the small area might be
hotter.
The new achievement is claimed
to present at least three distinct
advantages: First, it utilizes all
of the fuel. some of which. due
to the constant deterioration Of
quality in that now obtainable,
would otherwise be wasted. There
fore the amount saved and better
utilized means more power and
greater mileage for given guam
tity of gasoline. Second, because
the fuel is entirely vaporized, the
engine may be started much more
easily and quickly in cold weather
and brought to it's highest ther-
NAL efficiency much more rapidly.
Third, this vaporization reduces to
a minimum the condensed gaso-
line, which might work its way
down into the crank case and thin
the lubricating oil in the event
that the pistons and rings had be-
come worn.
A feature to which special at
tention is directed is the fact that
the fuel is vaporized by passing
over the heated surfaces and not
by mixing exhaust gases with the
fuel, which latter, of course, would
reduce the efficiency Of the gas.

Seed Potatoes.

In prs-war days Maine sent to south
ern states about 5000 car loads Of seed
potatoes each year, but during the past
few years this business has dropped off
so that the past year only 1900 car loads
were shipped.
Now, the State Chamber of Conn merce
and Agricultural League are determined
TO have this business return to Maine.
Already one full Car load OF certified
seed potatoes bearing the label and guar
tee OF the State Chamber of Commerce
and Agricultural League has been ship
ped to the Cape Cod Farm Bureau as il
has been found that Maine seed potatoes
produce IS bushels more to the acre than
seed potatoes grown in eastern Mssss-
chusstts, and 10S bushels more to the
acre than seed potatoes grown in west
ern Massachusetts,. Through the State
Chamber of Commerce and Agricultural
League another car load of Maine grown
certified seed potatoes will be shipped to
New Jersey. The certified seed pots-
toes being shipped with the guarantee oi
the State Chamber Of Commerce were
grown by the Young Farmers Club OF
Presque Isle under the direction of Fred
Loring.
1t is believed that with the endorse
ment of the new Chamber of Commerce
and Agricultural League the sale of GER
titled seed potatoes throughout the
southern states of the country can be
regained.

Horses on Farms Decline.

Horses In this country reached their
maximum In 1918, and since then have
been gradually decreasing, according to
data compiled by the Bureau of Crop
Estimates, United States Department of
Agriculture. While this statement ap-
plies to the United States as whole, the
information secured by the bureau re-
lates primarily to the supply of horses
on farms and ranches, the gradual de-
crease of which is attributed to motor
vehicles.
That the decline of the horse on farms
Is not due merely to the use of passenger
automobiles is indicated by q survey re-
Gently undertaken by approximately &c.
600 crop reporters representing the bu-
reau in all sections of the country. They
have reported the names Of more than
49, 900 farmers who use motor trucks on
their farms. But the extent to which
these trucks displace horses Is problem
atical. In many cases the introduction of
q truck on farm indicates provision for
increased hauling rather than an actual
reduction In the number of horses used.
The estimated number of horses on
farms and ranches January of this year
was 21. .109, 900, decrease of S73 900 head,
or IL per cent, compared with year
ago. The total value Of these animals
this year IL estimated al 81 ,992 ,542, 900,
as against 90, ia, sos, 900 last year. This
means an average value per head for
horses of all ages of s94 80, compared
with sos 45 year ago. The average
value per head 10 years ago was sos 0S.

handsomely decorated and furnished and
will be open to all during the summer
months.
The complete program will be an
nounced within few days.
1t also has been definitely settled to
hold big Statewide celebration In Port
land during the week Of June 28-July s
of which the city of Portland will pay
one-ha of the total cost. This 1t Ia
fully expected will be the greatest event
of it's kind In the history Of Maine.

Maine News Notes.

The census bureau ID now announcing
the population of towns 10 which enum-
orators have completed their lists. In
Maine the statistics for Lewiston have
been announced. The population as
found by the enumerator In January was
81, ,707, an increase of 8, 400 In ten years,
or 20.e per cent.
Joseph B. Tucker, aged 10 years, who
died March 6 In private hospital In
Dorchester, Mass, after Q long illness,
was native OF Maine, where he learned
the printing trade and had bis first ex.
perience on the Ellsworth American.
he became associated with the Boston
Transcript In 1857 and continued over
40 years. He had been widower tor
many years. His only daughter, Mary
Ellen, married Howard B. Willis OF
Topsham. They have one son. Mr..
Tucker passed his summers with them.
It is proposed to coin special fifty
cent piece in honor Of the centennial
year of Maine, and design by a Maine
man has been asked. Representative
Harry Cocbrane, at the request Of the
Governor, has made q drawing and II
will be forwarded to Washington. It Is
plain and handsome In its simplicity.
The diverse bears the words "Maine
Centennial 1S20-1920" surrounded by
circle of pine cones and spills. The re-
verse carries the seal of Maine In the CEN
ter, with overhead the words "United
States of America and underneath the
words "Maipe' and "Half Dollar"
A man from one of Names country
towns who is the father of II living chill
dren has recently written to the Division
of Vital Statistics of the Maine Depart
ment of Health, asking information as
to whether he 10 entitled to $1,000 and
what steps he must take to obtain this
sum. While the state of Maine makes
no provision to reward or compensate
fathers of large families, 1t is interesting
to note that such still exist In this state.
In the case cited, the children range
from 10 to o few weeks or months in age.
The record family for size In Maine,
however, consists of 81 children of whom
20 are still living. One daughter died
last winter from influenza but up to that
time the family circle, and good sized
one at that, had not been broken.
Herbert Emery Scbonland, youngest
son Of Mr.. and Mrs. Richard R. Schon-
land, 534 Cumberland Avenue, Portland,
has passed examination whereby he has
qualified to enter the U. s. Naval Acad.
emy at Annapolis and will locate there
in June. Young Schonland received ap-
pointment from Senator Bert NJ. Fernald
and has been fitting at Severn School in
Maryland. He made his letter In foot
ball at that institution and also at Port
land High School graduating in 1919.
Competition Is keen for Annapolis, like
West Point, as those who matriculate at
either must be thorough In preparation
and fortified with determination to
work hard. Young Schonlsnd will con-
tinue his studies at Severn several weeks
longer in the fundamentals that will be
useful and helpful when he becomes q
cadet.

Purebred Paw In Poultry.

That the value of purebred males
counts as much in poultry raising as In
stock raising Ia shown by the records OF
three flocks of LeRhorns, the data for
which have been supplied the United
States Department of Agriculture by the
North Carolina Experiment Station.
Flock 1, the egg production of which is
included in these records, consists OF
common hens; flock 2 was produced by
breeding these hens to common males
flock was produced by breeding flock
to rooster from high.producing hen.
The following year the original flock laid
SO eggs a ben; flock Q laid an average OF
SS eggs ben; and flock 8 laid an aver
age Of 136 eggs hen. This increase oil
"a per cent In one year tells very speci6.
cslly the benefits of using purebred
male. But the percentages alone do no,
tell the whole story for big proportion
Of the increase came at season-May
and June-vhen the productions oi
fiocks / and were relatively low and
the prices were good.

THE GIRL ON
THE WALL
By R. RAY BAKER

FS~S~VOUSS0S~SSUU
l@. 1920. by Mcclure Newspaper syndiosts)
From her place on the Office wall
the girl watched Oliver Randall's
every move. The deep, dark eyes fol-
lowed him about the room; the ruby
lips smiled at him continuously.
Oliver was In love with the girl He
had always admired dark-eyed, dark
haired girls, and this one satisfied his
requirements as to an ideal. he knew
he would marry her If he could.
Oliver was rising rapidly in the real
estate business, and in a year or two
would be in more than comfortable
financial circumstances. He needed
wife for an incentive, and, besides,
he was lonely; for In the big city he
had few companions aside from busi-
ness associates.
IF l could find the right girl I'd
marry her-if she'd let me-" Oliver
had often said, but the right one never
seemed to come along. Moreover, he
was one of the backward kind when 1t
came to young women, and he doubt
ed his ability to bring himself to the
point of proposing. Women frightened
him; they made him self-conscious.
Oliver Randall never had girl
except back in the old home town Of
Plainwell, where he used to aspire to
the hand of Irene Earle. Now Oliver,
away from the old home for year
and a half, laughed at Irene, with her
red hair and freckleS.
But the girl on the wall-Oliver
loved her deeply; at least he thought
he loved her, and thought has lot to
do with 1t. He had never talked with
her, had not even seen her outside tho
