1921 WAR BILL
TO REACH TOTAL
OF $2,593,000,

WASHINGTON, Feb. 15.-War this
year will cost the United States ST.
500, 100000, according to estimates
by Secretary Of the Treasury Hous-
ton.
War expenses thus represent 1853
per cent of the entire amount of
money appropriated for all purposes
by congress for this fiscal year which
ends June 80. 1921. Appropriations
for all purposes amount to $3,416,-
100000, including S2O3. 100000 in de-
f1ciencies mainly absorbed by the war
and navy departments. For govern
ment purposes not related to war
there is left appropriations totaling
$500, 100000.
Every person in the United States
is paying $24.24 a year for war pur-
poses, according to Houston's figures
as against per capita appropriations
for all purposes of $31.92. This
leaves $7.68 per citizen for expendi-
lures other than those related to
war.
In preparation against war the
United States this year will spend
S1,045 in the form of a donation to-
ward the Hague peace palace. This
can be computed in proportion to the
entire total of appropriations only
through the use of an elaborate sys-
tenn of calculation involving scores
of decimals.
To get ready for future wars the
United States this year will spend
SS61,291,S00 or about rs per cent of
the total appropriations.
Wars of the past will cost $685.
198,375 or about 10 per cent.
The great war, or present conflict
in which the United States still is
technically involved, will cost ST.
413,721,0S3 or about Al per cent. For
purposes other than war there will
be left "a per cent.
This years cost Of the present war
may be listed this way:
Interest public debt, mostly great
War risk, $135,324, 400.
United States ship board, war

Four Real "Cooties,'
Once Quite Unpopular,
Bring Price of $500

PLANTSVILLE, Conn.-One of the
queeret relics Of the war brought a
remarkable price the other day when
collection of four coolies sold for
$500. Ex-doughboys will profess
that the collector who sold them
profiteered. Not so, because as you
will learn the man who made the col
lection earned his money.
There was a French ccotie, a Bel
gian cootie, one of English breed
and then an alien cootie-a German
cootie Each of the four coolies was
affixed to a piece of paper by candle
grease that hardened, and today,
owing to the transparency of the
candle grease, the coolies are plain
ly visible.
Thus John Connolly of Plantsville
handed down to posterity the only
collection made on the battlefield, I'M
der fire, of the cootie.
He was in France with a truck
train that carried ammunition from
a munitions dump up to the front. So
in writing home to an inquiring
wanted to know what coolies were
John thought it would be best to
send him one. So one night he tore
the tag off a sack of tobacco and
in the candle light went hunting.
Never was English squire more
proud of a'prize fox catch than John
was with the capture of the French
cootie. With the aid of one of the
spectators John affixed the French
cootie to the tobacco sacks tag with
some candle grease.
Back to the friend in the United
States the specimen came. Later the
three other specimens arrived Then
John came home. The friend hon
ored Johns request and gave him the
only souvenir of the worlds war that
John had collected-the four Coolies
Then John, ungrateful, so the
friend says, sold his souvenirs the
other day to collector for $500
apiece.

S. GLENN YOUNG
HAS HARD TIME
UP IN ILLINOIS
By O. b, KELLER

"A letter from S. Glenn Young, the
federal agent who achieved much.
fame in this section year and a
half ago by capturing several mem
bers of the Crawley outfit after a
military expedition against them had
failed, informs the writer that Mr.
Young is having a rather sour time
up in Illinois, due to the fact that
he was compelled to shoot up g.
moonshiner about six weeks ago.
Mr.. Young asks about the status
of the CraWley case and then pro-
ceedS to a whimsical account of his
troubles in regard to the alleged
moonshiner.
"He got the drop on me-" writes
Mr.. Young, land the states attorney
now has me indicted for murder in
the first degree"
This apparent paradox is explained
by Mr.. Young as follows:
'"The trouble started-and ended
in the dark. 1t seems to be against
the law here to shoot a moonshiner
more than once. The states attorney
contends that one bullet is enough
to stop any ordinary moonshiner, and
as his friend-the moonshiner-had
eight holes in him, it seems 1 was
indicted On the grounds that he was
too shot up.
"The moonshiner had bent bar of
steel over a policeman's head before
he came in contact with me. Two
witnesses saw him push a 3S-caliber
revolver in my face, and so testified
before the grand jury, but that
doesn't seem to mean a thing
when my case comes on for trial
in the federal court, the United
States attorneys will be defending
me and the states attorneys friend
of the deceased moonshiner-will be
appointed a most able lawyer for my
defense. The coroner's jury exon
Grated me. but the states attorney
had me indicted anyway"
The philosophical Mr.. Young con-
"Outside of the above and a few
more frame-ups, which have been
dismissed, everything is going
smoothly"
The shooting referred to took place
last November at Madison, Ill. 1t
seems Mr.. Young has been active in
campaign against Illicit liquor
dealers in Madison county. NeWspa-
per accounts of the killing say that
Luke Vukovic, who was killed by
Young. had snapped his revolver
twice in Young's face, the cartridges
failing to explode, before Young got
his own "gat'' into action.
The Crawley case now is pending
inthe state supreme court, on an ap-
peal. Two of the gang" were SEN
fenced to be hanged and two to life
Imprisonment. An appeal was taken
and the sentence affirmed. A motion
for a new trial was denied and an
other aDneal taken.

Making Corn Grow
''Now here's my system of raising
corn, as 1 learned it from Robert F.
Spence, the Rock Castle county farm
agent:
Prepare the land in the usual way
by blowing and narrowing it.
Spread 16 per cent acid phosphate
when you plant the grain. | used
about 200 pounds to one acre. 1t cost
about Sc.
,"Plant the rows about 1-2 feet
apart. Allow space Of about Is
inches between each group of stalks.
LAS the stalks break through the
ground pull out the smaller ones,
leaving the strongest and best one
standing.
"Then pillow between the burrows.
Pillow again when the corn is about
knee high and once more when it's
about waist high.
"Then let it grow until it is about
ready to mature; then give 1t the
last blowing. This is the most ir--
portant blowing of all. Just scratch
the ground. Don't go more than three
inches deep; then you don't break the
roots and stunt the yield.
Most farmers plow deep the last
time, break the roots and then Won
der why their yield is stunted. All
the blowing is supposed to do is to
bring the moisture to the surface.
Just scratching the ground will do
this.
"Then all that remains is to sit
back and wait until harvest"
Everett figures it cost him go
cents a bushel to grow his corn, in
GLIDING a reasonable figure for his
own labor and that of younger
brother, who helped him plow 1T
once.

SOUTHAMPTON, England, Feb
