AHot Letter from
a Pipe Smoker

Larus & Brother Co., Richmond, Va.
Gentlemen:
am nor than surprised to dis
cover that you are advertising Edge
worth and are offering to oire some Of
Il array.
It has never been my policy to ad-
wise other people concerning their
business. as I have had enough to do
to take care Of my own affairs. But il
l manufactured Edgeworth. I would
see all the smokers in the world dead
and buried before l would give away
Is much as a pinch Of it.
Three years ago my dentist heard
me complaining because l could get no
pipe tobacco that was worth a cent q
carload. He Immediately introduced
Edgeworth. II | had a million dollars
l would be al
~ most willing to
49, give half the
Ts@@ sum for what he
l0oNfCp1Dm, did for me.
kuyWvtTHE Since that time
unn VI have smoked
pcAHvmspogDy Edgeworth and
Tw1~A nothing else.
Hd1EAcr.~ And it has the
M 6S0RTuA same flavor to-
~ exsSS~ day that II had
~ sIkr the first time I
~ smoked il. /
V0SS have told a
~oH~ thousandfriends
D about it and
they are now
all Edgeworth devotees. Pipe smokers
who come to my house go daily"
my Edgeworth. Hence / cannot
understand why you have to give any
OF 1t away.
Very truly yours.

Secretary Forest City Live Stock and
Fair Co.,
General Manager The Forest City
Fair, Secretary The Grand Circuit.
Nh. Kline has expressed surprise
that We give Edgeworth away. Yet
until a friend gave him some, he knew
nothing about its quality.
There are still thousands OF pipe
smokers to whom Edgeworth Is an
unknown quantity. That's why we
offer samples to anyone willing TO buy
. postcard to send for them.
It's good business for us to let men
unfamiliar with Edgeworth smoke It.
II these samples didn't make regular,
happy, and often enthusiastic smok-
ers Of Edgeworth. we would stop Offer
ing them
The above letter came to US from
Mr.. Kline ven years ago. We wrote
TO learn il he still held the same high
opinion Of Edgeworth.- He replied:
Trojan Laundry Company,
Flint, Mich.
Gentlemen:
My opinion Of Edgeworth has not
changed, for the very good reason that
Edgeworth is still the same. / would
make my endorsement stronger than
ever il ! knew how to do it.
Very truly yours,

Disgraceful Neglect.

The American Legion has present
ed to the American people a state
ment directing attention to the sui
fering, the shameful neglect and in
justice which marks the administers
tion of the affairs Of disabled veter-
ans. Now then, let the American
people engage in an intensive influ-
entail drive in behalf of these dis
abled men, who are entitled to the
very best that the country can af-
ford. Is it not time for the people
to give some thought to their home
folk-and the brave men who have
suffered beyond measure in behalf OF
humanity? These gallant soldiers
are entitled to better treatment at
the hands of the government they
fought for. There is no excuse fol
their neglect. Criminal negligence
should be charged up to the admin
istration for its lack of care Of the
ex-service men who are physically
unfit to aid themselves. It is 8
shame disgrace to the country that
the American Legion has been forced
to issue it's appeal to the people OF
the United States in behalf of com.
rades who have been so shamefully
neglected in their hour Of need.

1920 with the Railroads

An interesting summary of the
| railroad situation has been furnished
| by Thomas Dewitt Cuyler, chairman
of the Association Of Railway Exec.
utives, in a statement reviewing the
railroad situation for the year 1920
Mr.. Cuyler says that under private
operation during the year, the rail.
roads moved larger gross tonnage
than ever before, and also established
new records in the amount of trans.
portation gotten out of each car
These records, Mr.. Cuyler says, were
not achieved by the railroads alone
but with the aid of shippers in un-
loading cars, and with "the day and
night, rain or shine, work of hun
dreds of thousands of employees
There has been a great deal of discus
sion in the newspapers as to what
course the railroads will pursue in
their attempts to collect the six per
cent return pledged to the railroads
by the transportation act, in view of
the fact that the earnings fall consid-
erably short. Mr.. Cuyler in speaking
for the railroads sets this question at
rest by the statement that !" the rail.
way executives realize that they are
trustees of a great public interest in
the reduction of railroad operating eX-
pense to the lowest possible figure,
and every effort will be made dur
ing the coming year to accomplish this
by further economics and efficiency"
1t is a noteworthy achievement
that the increased average movement
per freight car per day has grown
from 22.3 to 1856 miles, while the
increased average load per car has
been brought up from 1913 to 80 tons.
Mr.. Cuyler states that there has been
a substantial reduction of unmoved
freight cars, which amounted to 103.-
237 on March 1, was brought down
to 1891 on December 3, Of which
only 1886 were detained because of
the inability of the railroads to move
them. The relocation of box cars
between the east and the west fur
nished another record of efficiency for
the railroads. In addition the lines
have moved the third highest coal pro-
duction in the history Of the country,
and have made expenditures of over a
half billion dollars in improving the
of tracks, bridges, cars
and locomotives; in addition to which
they have contracted for additions and
betterments, and for new freight cars
and locomotives and for reconstruction
work in sums hitherto unknown in
railroad development.
Private ownership and operation
of the railroads as a measure of
sound public policy" said Mr.. Guy
Ter, in concluding his review, rests
largely upon it's superior efficiency
and economy. In my judgment the
American railroad companies during
the present year have fully justified,
and during the coming year will make
every effort to continue to justify,
the support and confidence which
public opinion, in gratifying measure,
has already accorded them" Ex-
change.

No Enterprise Can Do
More for All the PeO-
pie Than the Parks

Unrest among people can be stopped
by the development of parks, particu-
larly those owned by the state, Rich
ard Lieber, director of the Indiana De-
partment Of Conservation, informed
the National Conference on Parks in a
letter read by his secretary, C. N.
| Sauers.
"The road back to nature" Mr.. Lie
Der said, lis the safe one and no en-
terprise can do more for the good of
all the people than our glorious parks.
Thinking of the state parks in all
states as places of rest and service
| quarters for interstate automobile
Travellers" said Mr.. Lieber, "I can
visualize many places along the high
| ways that connect our centers of pop
ulation with the centers Of recre-
alton that would be glad and willing
to make provisions for the wayfarer.
Travel has largely given way to the
Individual manner of the automobile,
and hence we must think up supple
mentary service to this modern mode
OF locomotion by supplying the need
ed intermediary provisions for rest.
| All of us have seen compromises
along the highways: automobile
tents, trailers, improvised kitchens
and laundries. The people that carry
on in this fashion are by no means
gypsies but generally staid home and
nature loving folk who merely are
gratifying the most natural wish of
sightseeing. Many of these tourists
are bound for the romantic and pic
turesque west and provisions must be
made to take care of this constantly
increasing stream by providing ade-
quate stop-overs, not camps or hotels.
Il visualize such a place of rest as
follows: A sufficiently large enclos-
ure, large gate to check in an open
center space, against the walls shell
tered partitions for sleeping, shell
tered kitchen or pantry, wherever
possible water and gas connection,
garbage incinerator, sanitary army
latrines, septic tank, gasoline and oil
filling machinery, first aid repair
shop, gatekeepers' lodge and staple
grocery. Enterprising towns will
quickly avail themselves of the oppor-
tunity.

An ordinary putty knife is one Of
the most useful tools which the
amateur gardener can use. II serves
many purposes and is especially use
full in setting out small plants. II is
an efficient instrument for cleaning
other tools, is found convenient at

can be tucked into the side pocket,
occupying but little space, and he
ready for use at any time. BY all

ImportatIons OF Meat.

Although the United States is the
greatest meat-producing country in
the world, II has received considerable
quantities of meats from other coun-
tries. according to the records Of the
United States Department Of Agricul-
ture. Last year the United States inn
ported 160000,000 pounds Of meat OF
all kinds, about two-thirds of which
was New Zealand lamb. This lamb is
now being exported to England. While
meat imports of last year show an
Increase over the preceding year, they
do not establish a record, as imports
for 1911 were a2s000000 pounds.
