SWEET TOOTH LANDS
 FAT BOY IN TOLLS

New York, Sept. S.---Josoph R, White, Jr., is 15 years old and weighs 201 pounds. His propensity for stealing money in order to buy candy was hobbled yesterday when Justice Wilkin in Children's Court sentenced him to the s. Berkshire Industrial Farm at Canaan, N. Y.
 The boy was brought to court on the complaint of his father, Brook lyn business man, who charged that he could not stop his son from steal ing money with which to buy candy for which he had craving.
 Joseph. his father told the court, had lost a dozen positions in the last two years, all of them through stealing. He ate as much as $2 worth of candy day. which. ac- cording to Joseph senior, was more than the lad earned.

BATTLE OVER REVISION OF
 TAX INTENDS
Desperate Struggle Expected Over Two Features of House Bill-Party Lines Dissolved.

Washington, Sept. S.-A desperate battle will be fought in the Senate over retroactive repeal of the excess profits tax and the reduction of the maximum income surtaX from 65 to 32 per cent.
 Democrats are nearly unanimous ly opposed to these proposals and lining up with them there will be just enough Republicans to make the contest exceedingly close. Just how close it is is indicated by the fact that Chairman Penrose IS counting on a majority of only one in the Senate Finance Committee to approve an amendment making the repeal of the excess profits tax and the re- duction of surtaXcs effective January 1, 1921, instead of January 1, 1922, as provided in the House bill.
 President Harding insists upon fulfillment of Republicans campaign promises that the excess profits tax would be repealed without delay, which he construes as a promise to exempt 1921 profits from the tax.

Oklahoma Man Is On The Job Every Day and Feels Just Fine Since
 Taking Tanlac.

"At the time l got Tanlac three years ago I hadn't been able to put in full days work for two years; but the medicine fixed me up to where I felt fine and I've not lost days work on account of ill- health since,' said Charles Ham, blen, well-known farmer residing on R. F. D. No. 1, keefeton, Okla
 About five years ago my system got out of order and I went down in health until I was so weak l could hardly stand up. As for work, was scarcely able to do anything 1 had no appetite and what little I ate seemed to do me no good, and I had headaches constantly. I was cough, and it seemed that my old time strength and energy were gone for good
 But it didn't take Tanlac but a little while to straighten nc out and I was soon full of new life and en- ergy. Ever since then I've been praising Tanlac. and I'm glad to give this statement for what it may be worth to- others. Tanlac is the best medicine I ever saw or heard of"

NO TANGIBLE CLUE
 TO TRAIN ROBBERS

Texarkana, Sept S.-There were no new developments of d definite character yesterday relative to Tues day nights Kansas City Southern mail robbery. Local officers have been busy since shortly after the robbery, but so far no arrests have been made and no definite clue has been found as to the identity of the robbers. The fact that they made the engineer bring them to the suburbs before leaving the en- zine causes the belief that they arc TeXarkana men.
 As to the amount of booty se- cured, nothing has been given out, and chief clerks in the railway mail terminal here say they could not make even an intelligent guess. It may have been large or small.
 The robbers wore handkerchiers for masks. They showed no signs of nervousness, and worked like veterans, it is said.

 of 1900 cars. There were several points from which reports were not received and it is believed the total commercial acreage will reach 20,- 900. About 35 per cent of the crop is grown for selling purposes. It is also indicated that 73 per cent of the commercial crop of nearly 6,000,000 bushels will be cured. The capacity of the curing houses is practically 973,000 bushels. This is a large increase over last year when the storage capacity was estimated at a little more than half million bushels. During the year a number of curing houses have been built and in Northwest Arkansas a num- Der of the large apple storage houses are this year being used for curing and storing sweet potatoes.
 Arkansas is especially favorably situated for the stimulation of this industry" says C. $. Bouton of the Reporting Service; the future mar ket is to the northwest and there the demand is increasing rapidly. Arkansas and Oklahoma are the nearest states to this market and in this respect they have d large ad- vantage in freight rates over the heavier producing states to the east.
 "A study of the carloads expected shows that not all points reporting acreage will ship carloads. This indicates that in some cases the crop will be disposed of near at hand; in other cases it means that there is no data on which to base esti- mates. The total figures indicate that it takes about six and one half commercial acres to produce d carload of shipping potatoes. The average yield in this state is not far from 105 bushels. though in the commercial plantings it is doubt less larger. Usually something like 20 per cent of the total yield is culled out or lost, so that of first shipping potatoes there is much nearly an average of 80 to 85 bushels per acre, than more and this indi- cation practically 6 1-2 acres to a carload of $50 bushels.
