 Ignitior, Company

Of interest to battery users is the announcement that the Arizona Bat tery and Ignition company, Vesta dis tributors for this territory, has been purchased by R. J. Jones who was proprietor of this concern for several years prior to it's purchase by Chet MorreH.
 MT Jones started in business in Phoenix in 1911, and is perhaps one of the best known business men in this vicinity. His experience in electrical and battery work approxi- mates Is years, and he was the first man to open an exclusively electrical garage in this state.

MULE FLoATEo OUT OF WELL

RALTIMORE-Elis Parks's mule wandered away from home the other morning. The cool, green grass and a bucket of water beside cistern at the Baltimore County aims house looked good to him and he went up the driveway to refresh himself. He stepped on the wooden platform of the cistern and broke it, and mule, platform and all went plunging into the water below.
 Long and vigorous brays brought spectators from the aims house. who in turn sent for the fire department down at Cookeysyille. The firemen hitched their hose to nearby well and. giving the mule a shower bath for three hours. they succeeded in filling the cistern and floating the mule to safety.
 The animal was in very bad tenn per when he got out.-New York Tribune

MIL [TON CHANGES TO FRON I [ NAC AT LAST MOMEN NJ

INDIANAPOLIS, Ind, May 2S- Special to the Republican, One of the surprises of the big Memorial day race which developed today is the fact that Tommy Milton is not going 10 drive a Duesenberg- Milton has been with Fred Duesenberg for years. and his name was synonymous with Duesenberg. He made numerous rec ords with these cars. the greatest of which perhaps was the Florida beach record, when he stepped along over 156 miles an hour with two 300-inch Duesies hitched up side by side Last year he drove a Duesenberg in the 500 mile race.
 The fan not on the Inside of things doesn't know whether Tommy quit Duesenberg or whether Duesenberg quit Tommy.
 Originally Milton was billed to drive a Durant Special but something seems to have happened, and the dope now is that he will be seen behind the wheel of one of Louis Chevrolet's eight in a-row Frontenacs. Ralpf Mulford, who made the white collar famous on the race track, will drive another eight in- arrow F'rontenac.

LLOYD GEORGE POORLY PAID


 There has been a good deal of talk in London, some of it at an official investigation, about the salary of the prime minister of England As matter of fact, that salary seems q little absurd when one considers the importance to the world of the office as indicated by the events of the salary which, translated into dol lars fnormal exchange rates) would amount to about S25.0eo-s
 The president of the United States used to draw just twice as much till the salary was increased to s75,00o
 There cannot be the slightest com parison between the quarters Of the prime minister of England (the off cial residence) and the White House. The former is on Downing street. a narrow, dingy thoroughfare, which turns off Whitehall at the foreign office, dingy gray stone pile of awful architecture. The official res idence is as dingy as the street.
 Downing street, since the Irish troubles became acute. has .been bar ricaded with a plain. painted board fence. It was not shut off from the balance of London during the world war
 The living quarters of Lloyd George occupy the upper stories of the dingy old house and are inconvenient old ' fashioned and would make an Ameri I can congressman wife gasp with i horror, not to speak of an American l First Lady of the Land' They arc furnished principally by the crowr and the furnishings are rather aw- 1 ful, too.

Car Owners!

Do you know that the life of your battery depends to a very great extent upon the condition of your generator?
 You may be draining out the life of your battery be- cause of the fact that your generator is not charging properly. A few minutes work may be all that we will require to set the generator right, and thereby save you the price of a battery possi- bly, at a time when you can least afford to buy one.
 If you notice anything wrong with your battery slow starting, periodical failure, or anything that af- fects the ignition, drop around and let us see what's the matter. The cost to you may be nothing. In any event, it will be surprising iii it's reasonableneSS.

PREMATURE

The reluctance of some of our res taurant proprietors to cut down their prices brings to mind the story of a certain English profiteer. He had erected a gray, medieval pile on mountain peak and as he was ap- preaching it with a friend he said, "I don't know what to call my place. What name would you advise ?"
 His friend stood still and surveyed the structure. Tt looks like one of those Scotch castles in the High lands " he remarked. Why not call il Dunrobin ?''

does the treatment given while in transit, say specialists of the United States Department of Agriculture. Success in shipping blackberries is dependent largely on favorable wea- ther conditions and the way in which the fruit is handled in transit.
 The shipping weight If a 1G-Quart crate of blackberries is from 27 to 30 pounds, and the charge for post age to points within the first and sec ond postal zones is from 31 to 34 cents. The cost for crate and post age on a 16-quart crate of black berries will vary, therefore, from 58 to 64 cents. It may be possible at times to ship more than one kind of berries in a crate, such as combin- ation shipment.
 Windbreaks are in many ways a farm asset. They tend to prevent the soil from drying out quickly and they protect grain and orchards from injury by the wind. A belt of trees near the farm buildings protects them from extreme cold and from summers heat. Trees make the farm a pleasanter place in which to live. The windbreak may be also a source of wood supply for fuel or for sale.

Poisoned Bait is Best
 For Killing Cut,yorms

Cutworms appear in early spring and cut off the stems of young plants at the surface of the ground They are quickly destructive The best remedy is poisoned bait. For a small garden mix level tablespoons of wh bite arsenic, arsenate of lead, or Paris green into 5 pounds of dry bran. Add from 4 to quarts of water, in which half a pint of sorg- hum or cheap molasses has been mixed. After the mash has stood several hours scatter it thinly over the garden or a small quantity at the base of the plants. Put the poison on late in the day, so it will be moist during the night when the cutworns. feed.

Cherries May Be Easily
 Dried for Household Use

The months of June and July are the cherry season throughout the country. Everybody enjoys canned cherries, but it is not so generally understood that drying offers sim pie and economical method for pre- serving cherries when canning is inconvenient.
 Sweet cherries, especially the dark, solid-feshed varieties, such as the Tartarian, Bing, Lambert, and Dikeman, may be employed for the same purposes as raisins. The sour or pie cherries are also easily dried. The fruit is washed, picked over to remove stems and imperfect speci- mems, then spread in a single layer on the trays and placed in the drier.
 If the fruits are very large, they may be pitted before drying, but large quantities of the juice, which contains a considerable portion of the sugar of the fruit, are lost in the process. If this juice, which amounts to 35 to 50 gallons per ton of fruit, can be saved and combined with apple or other juices in the making of jellies, pitting may be at tempted, otherwise the process IS both time-consuming and .wasteful. The drier should not be hotter than 12O degrees F. when fresh cherries are placed in it, and the tempera- ture should never rise above 150 de- grees, as cherries especially are easily injured by overheating.

and it was necessary to print page insert for the booklets.
 In discussing his new overture MT. Powell said that his intent was to represent---not pictorially but in one-structure---the spirit of the ante-secession South---"unaffect simple, chivalrous and romantic" trembling on the verge of the cata- clysm, menaced from within by the unsound element of slavery but keeping up it's head and dancing gayly to the approaching disaster in the traditional artistocratic manner. The principle theme is founded on the "Cla'r the Kitchen" song, and the secondary theme on the old negro improvisation. This, although not in itself menacing, MT. Powell uses to symbolize the grumbling of the interior menace. For a dance sug- gestion there is an old Scotch air which as said, the whole is bound to- gether by "Dixie."
 The overture starts with the Dixie motif from the trumpets followed by an augmentation of the principal theme, alternating with the military motif ("Dixie"). The negro theme then shades in ominously and, by bal ancing and building up, the struc- ture is brought to a crashing climax in an almost literal reproduction of "Dixie" Speaking of this latter, MT. Powell said that the Dixie motif Fn,rvaI ,V, Dax~zsFaI ,n mann's F sharp minor Sonata.
 It was said that the orchestra did not receive the score of the work until Wednesday morning. Never theless the composition was rendered in perfect manner. MT. Powell con- ducted with energy and his enthusi- asm was contagious, orchestra and audience entering fully into his spirit. There is no doubt that "In Old Virginia" will be remembered as one of the most interesting works in the long series of original compost tions produced under the patronage of the Litchfield County Choral Union.
 The concert opened with Weber's overture to "Oberon". This music precedes Wagner in point of time but it was found to be full of charm. Stanford's Irish Symphony" follow ed. This work was we'll received by all. The four movements have a de- fnitely Gaelic flavor, the final being, based on two Irish songs, "Remem- Der the Glories of Brian the Brave, and "Let Erin Remember the Days of Old"
 MT. Powell, composer and conduc- tor of "In Old Virginia" then play ed Schumann's concerto for piano. forte. This concerto, like all the works of Schumann, contains a TO- manticism that can not fail to stir any audience but when played by a master such as Powell and assisted by great orchestra like that of last night, its splendors are magnifed. The program was divided into two parts and that part following the rendition of "In Old Virginia" was devoted to Wagnerian music. The Prize Song from "The Mastersing- CTS" was sung by George Hamlin with great skill. The Prelude and Death of Love from "Tristqn and Isolde" was played by the orchestra in masterly manner. Henry P. Schmitt conducted all the works eX- cept that of MT. Powell.
 The festival closed with "America" " by chorus, audience an1 orchestra.

OUR FARMERS CORNER
Small Temporary Pastures
 Thought Best for z

hOu&nE best TOT OnGGp
 For health and for economical use of the pasturage it is undesirable to keep sheep on the same ground more than from 10 to IA days, say specialists of the United States De- partment of Agriculture, in discuss ing the question of raising sheep on temporary pastures. The most gen. erally useful size of lot is 1 acre to 25 sheep. This area, oman average, furnished in experiments IA days feed.
 Arranging the size of lots on the basis of 1 acre to 25 sheep is more satisfactory than seeding larger areas and using hurdles to permit ad- vance to fresh feed each day. Less labor is necessary, and by going to entirely new ground after 10 or 12 days the danger of picking up para site larvae on ground grazed over earlier is prevented. With 1-acre lot for 25 ewes, or correspondingly larger ones for larger fiocks, it is an added advantage if their length is two or three times the breadth.
 With a heavy crop of forage that would last longer than was consider ed safe to hold the flock on the same ground, a short piece of cross fence can readily be put down to divide the pasture into two parts. The smaller lots are also convenient with purebred focksf to provide for the separate pasturing of smaller lots of ram and eve lambs.
 Movable fencing is not likely to be satisfactory for the outside-lot fences unless the whole area to be used lies in long strip with side fences, when only two end pieces need to be in place at one time for the ground being grazed.
