WHAT is A RUsHEL2

"Thirty-two quarts make one
bushel," recites Young America
glibly and positively. But the
housewife who has purchased family
supplies for years is not at all sure
but that this is one of the many
rules that have their exceptions.
Specialists of the Bureau of Mar
kets, U. S. Dept. of Agriculture, say
that the heaped bushel varies with
the price of the product land the
weight bushel varies widely in diff
rerent States. A bushel of sweet
potatoes is 46 pounds in the Da-
kotas and 60 pounds in Maryland.
A bushel of tomatoes is As pounds
in Oklahoma and so pounds in Vir-
ginia. A bushel of unshelled green
peas is 2S pounds in Massachusetts
and Sc pounds in PENNSYLVANIA.
The Bureau Of Markets recommends
the adoption of the Struck" bushel
the Winchester bushel of 2,15O.42
cubic inches-as the unit for pack
age standards.

Mr.. Editor:-~
You no doubt will be interested to
hear that our direct orders for L. &
M. Semi Paste Faint, exceed previous
years by ITO per cent, for the same
period of time.
This large increase confirms our
judgment, that the Weekly News
paper which circulates among the
Local Merchants customers, is the
most satisfactory advertising medi-
UNI to pull business for the Adver-
tiser
The business pulling power of the
Weekly Newspaper is in our opinion.
due to its keeping in close touch
with it's town people-their habits
and ways-that it's part of their
life; and becomes a welcome num-
Der of the household, and read by
all.
That your paper has been an i'm
portant factor in our success, should
be very gratifying to you, as it is
to us.
Sincerely yours,

A measure of light has beer

A measure of light has been
thrown upon the mysterious elev-
enth-hour decision of the House
Ways and Means Committee to place
a high protective tariff-not to say
prohibitive tariff-upon crude and
fuel oil imported into the United
States, a decision arrived at after
the bill had been printed and dis
tributed confidentially to represent
atives of the press.
1t is announced in authoritative
quarters that the purpose of this
tariff is four-fold. 1t is designed
first to punish the alleged monopoly
maintained by the Standard Oil
Company; next, to make it possible
for Independent domestic operators
to live and prosper once more;
again, to bring down the price OF
gasoline to Is cents a gallon and
finally, to save "the common people

The biggest problem in Washing
ton today is disarmament. Every
where the Harding Administration
turns in it's effort to cut down ex-
penses or to reduce taxes it meets
the disarmament problem in some
form. 1t has taken months for
the true importance of disarmament
to be appreciated, but the question
has at last gotten so big that in its
solution lies the key to the domestic
and foreign situation combined.
Back of the disarmament problem
lies, for instance, the whole attitude
of foreign governments toward the
funding of their debts to the United
States. How much interest can
they afford to pay annually, how
much toward the principal if the
chief item in their budgets is mil
itary and naval expense for the next
war? And while President Harding
has sent informal feelers to the
foreign powers to determine their
attitude toward a reduction of
armament expense, the same in
formal responses have been made to
the effect that when a plan of in
surance has been provided, some
thing that will assure the safety OF
European countries from attack,
then a disarmament program will
become plausible.

EXPLOSIVE FOR FARMERS.
Over 5000 Tons of Picric Acid to be
Distributed by u. s. Government.


Distributed by U. s. Government.
More than 5000 tons of picric
acid, one of the highest known ex-
plosives, accumulated for war pur-
poses and made useless to the war
department by the armistice, will be
distributed to farmers for agricul-
tural purposes.
The question of what to do with
100000 pounds of pictic acid
puzzled government officers for
some time and the war department
had almost decided to tow the ex-
plosive out to sea and dump it over
board in the interest of the public
safety when it was decided to insti-
tute series of experiments in an
effort to find some safe commercial
use for it.
The experiments were conducted
by the bureau of mines and dis
closed many ways in which picric
acid could be used safely and profit
ably on farms, such as in blasting
out stumps and rocks and breaking
up land. 1t was accordingly decid-
ed to distribute the explosive, prac-
tically free Of charge, to farmers.
The 100000 pounds surplus
stock will be distributed to farmers
thru the bureau of public roads of
the department of agriculture. The
only cost to the farmer, it is an
nounced, will be freight charges and
a charge of six cents a pound for
placing the powder In the necessary
cartridges. 1t will be ready for dis
tribution about July LIST.

The North East Star remarks
that while there are candidates ga
lore and they keep a-coming, there
is no apparent political excitement
anywhere. Aspirants are having
free entrance to the race, and are
seemingly on a still hunt, with no
overhead or unseen handicap, save
such as the multiplicity of candi-
dates would create, and this in
some instances may prove to be any
thing else than a handicap.

CAPTURE STILLS

Recently our officers have been get
ting in some good work on the whis-
key business. We have been remiss
in publishing accounts Of their cap
lures but will try to do better in the
future. On last Sunday Chief of Po-
lice Jacobs and Rural Policeman
Brock found about 400 gallons Of
mash used for making Peach Brandy
on Hard w. Hendrix's place on Thomp
son Creek. They failed to find the
still but found a platform erected out
in the waters of Thompson creek
where evidently the still had been
operated. They poured out the mash
and destroyed the tank.
On Tuesday Mr.. Brock found a
crude still in the home of Alex Spen-
Ger on Mr.. Eugene Teal's place near
Chesterfield. In searching the house
Mr.. Brock also found a squirrel and
entered a charge of violation OF the
game law against Spencer, in addition
to the one for having the still. He
furnished Bond for appearance at
Court on both charges.
