IRISH REVOLUTION
STOPS TOURISTS
TRAVELLERS FEAR TO VISIT
IRISH PROVINCES BECAUSE
OF DANGERS THERE.

DUBLIN-The tourist business in
Ireland has been injuriously affected
by the revolutionary disorders. Tour
ist agents and hotel keepers are in
despair. North Wales and the Isle of
Man have captured the visitors who,
used to come to Killarney and Glen
gariff. There has been notable alb
sence of the usual influx of Ameri-
cans.
Dublin has suffered less proper
tionately than other places, but Dub
Inns visitors did not take the risk of
leaving it for the provinces. There
was no danger to life or limb, but the
dislocation of the railway service
caused by the. refusal of the railway,
men to carry soldiers, police or NUM-
tions made theatfaifl service so IN
certain that nobody could count safe
ly on reaching or returning from any
given destination within the limits of
a holiday.

its annual livestock show and to con-

in the year following the Interstate

which had contributed substantially
to the funds of the annual Lewiston

EXCHANGING IDEAS HELPS CITY
GOVERN MENT

Lawrence, Kans., Feb. 14-OficiaIs
of Kansas cities are waking up to the
value of exchanging with other, ac-
cording to John G. Stutz, secretary
of the League of Kansas Municipali-
ties with headquarters at the Univer-
sity of Kansas. Today officials of
156 cities are pooling their IDEAS of
city administration for exchange
through the medium of the informa-
ton bureau and Kansas Municipali-
ties, official magazine of the organi-
cation.
Getty officials twenty years ago
were generally too prejudiced to be-
ieve their fellow officers of a neigh
boring city had any ideas which would
be useful to them in the adnainistra-
ton of their own city," said Mr.. Stuff
in discussing the matter of awakened
interest tsBut times have changed
City officials are now well aware of
the value of Cooperation and the ex-
change of ideas, and are keeping the
league busy with general legal ques-
tions, drafting ordinances, compiling
city water, tax and electric rates, and
furnishing data on city parks and the
city manager form of government -
The league magazine, edited by Mr..
Stutz, contains in the current issue
an extensive write-up of the city of
Newton, special articles on city mar
kets, municipal administration, sell
ing city bonds, and other articles of
value to the city officials and others
interested in better city goyerum emit

HEREFORD RECORD FOR 1920

Records of public sales of Herefords
for the year 1920 show that 14,432
animals sold for an average of $414-
OF this number 1862 animals sold for
81 900 or more, 199 sold for So, 500 or
more, 81 for $4,000 or more and 10
for $4,000 or more
The figures are based on 264 auc-
lions sales Of which records are a.
valuable and do not include cattle sold
privately.
It is interesting to note that these
264 sales were held in 27 states, with
the majority in the Middle West. Two
hundred and twenty of the entire num-
Der, or S3 per cent, were held in the
states of Iowa, Nebraska, Missouri,
Kansas, SouthDakota, Minnesota, In
diana and Illinois. These states are
among the richest agricultura11y in
this country and it is significant that
purebred- Hereford cattle should be
produced more generally here than
elsewhere.
There were during the year IL sales
where the number of animals ranged
from AZ to 12O head, that made aver
ages on the entire offerings of over
1000. Nine of these sales were held
in the states mentioned above.-Drov-
ers Telegram of February 18th.

HEALTH OF WOMEN.

How many perfectly well women

order to keep up with the march OF
progress the endurance of woman is
often strained to it's utmost, and the

nervous irritability, backache, drag

painful ailments peculiar to women
The reliable remedy when woman
gets into such condition is Lydia

for nearly half a century it has
proved the natural restorative fol
