COURT UPHOLDS
COMMISSIONERS
in MARKET CASE
Dismisses Injunction of
Produce Men to Stop
Louisiana Ave. Park.

UNFOLDING the power of Congress
to designate a street Improvement
and the action of the District Com
missioners in performing their
duties in accordance with acts OF
Congress. the Court of, Appeals yes
terday dismissed the injunction pro-
ceedings instituted by the merchants
of Wholesale Row" to prevent the
carrying out of the parking system
on Louisiana avenue, between Ninth
and Tenth streets northwest
The work of narrowing the side
walk along the thoroughfare in
question from 20 feet to 1914 feet
was abruptly stopped last summer
by the Appellate Court and an ap-
preparation of 5000 for the work
allowed to remain idle.
The commission merchants sued in
the District Sapreme Court to re-
strain the Commissioners from car
ryinG out the parking project, but
Justice Gould denied the request for
an Injunction. Then the merchants
appealed. 1t was claimed by the
dealers. through Harry Sherry and
others, that the plans of the Com
missioners to deprive them of IN
feet of sidewalk would be ruinous
to their business.
Associate Justice Van Orsdel in
an opinion declared that the Com
missioners had full authority to re-
their boupdaries when they saw fit.

No accurate estimate is made as to

that artisans will be imported from

principal; as taxpayer he will pay
more than the extra interest cost to the

Lots Of 'blue stuff circulating in
the farm papers these days, much
Of It directed toward the dairy stu
alton. All sorts Of discouraging re-
marks are being made to the effect
that dairying is "the worst business
a man can be engaged in. No money
in it. Mans a slave; can't get away
for single milking. Got to be right
there day and night, the year
year round" So what's the usef
Why not give it up as bad job and
go down town where fellow can
earn something and have his nights
off
! know all about that sort Of talk,
and how it does take the strength out
of fellows knees to be compelled
to sit down and listen to it an hour
or two, or to read it in some farm
paper that ought to know better than
to publish such stuff. 1t is bad
enough to fight open enemies and
we have enough Of them, but why

back to normal for milk and butter

when you are down. Build new bar

thrown down. They win come handy
on the morrow.
And then, how about the farm
barnsf Are they what they ought
to BET Prices for material are GO
ing down, and will go down still
more. Get your plans all made to
take advantage of the fall and be
ready to make all needed repairs
when prices are at their lowest. You
will be too busy soon to do anything
of that kind.
Again, how about machinery
Have you been getting along with
the old tools while prices for new
ones have been so hight Many Of
us have. But the time will come
when you will have to scrap the old
ones and get new. Watch the mar
kets for farm implements. Prices are
falling now. 1t may be they will go
some lower. When that time comes,

A good many Of us have been SELL

were not making a living for them

we were at all smart. And now
whatf Why get better COW to take
the place OF every one that has been
thus disposed Of. We, most Of us,
have hay and stuff to feed more
stock than we have. The price Of
hay is down where it will not pay
to sell it. But it will pay the best

-. living that prevailed IN
In spite of all the praise Of "The
good old days." would you be con-
tent to give up the many convent
ences we have gained in the past
century,
Next time you step into the cor
ner store take a look around. OF
all the articles on the shelves how
many were on your shopping list
fifteen years ago? Make it twenty
years and you will find that most Of
the things you buy today-and could
not do without-were not even made
then.
The telephone now places the
farmer in instant communication
with the source of the latest mar
ket reports and saves him many
hours of precius time in the event
of sickness or accident.
You eat more wholesome food. You
wear better clothes. Your home is
better furnished. You have more
sanitary houses. You have better
newspapers. You seek more health
full amusements.
1t was advertising that first pro-
claimed the usefulness of these
things, that created an immediate
and universal demand for them, that
established a worldwide distribu-
ton which made them readily ac-
cessible to us all.
Your whole standard of living has
been raised-and whyf Because
the men who make these better
things are telling you that you will
be more comfortable, happier and
healthier if you use these higher
grade goods.
You men and women who buy
things, let us impress you. You are
better men and women because of
advertising.
Mccormick invented the reaper
and thereby made himself an ever
lasting benefactor of the farmer.
But it was Advertising that carried
the wonderful news with its far
reaching significance to the imam

1t is the advertising that makes
it possible for you to buy "the best"
with the utmost confidence in the
promises made by the advertisement.
1t is advertising that encourages the
inventor to make new comforts, and
advertising enables you to use them
almost Immediately.
You know what housework used
to be. Realize what it is now, since
the advent of sanitary plumbing fix
lures, hot water heating, vacuum
cleaners and electric household APP
pliances. Advertising has brought
these things into the home. II has
eliminated drudgery.
Advertising is service. Science, in
vention, commerce, are all indebted
to its aid II has raised the standard
of living, elevated business ethics
and put us within reach of more
real comforts, more real blessings,
than we ever enjoyed before.
Use this service most advantage

day more carefully than you have
ever done before. Added economies,
added comforts, added pleasures,

And do this all along the line. Act
just as if you expected good times.
Work for good times and good times

hearts content. Nothing cuts the
life out of a man more surely or
quickly than to be all the time wor-
rying. Worry is the road to sick
ness and it may be permanent dis
ability. More than that. To be all
all the time down in the mouth makes
the young folks, and the old ones,
too, that come in contact with you,
blue and sick and ready to quit. If
you want to win the young folks to
the farm, and keep them there, cheer
up. Take better views Of life. Stop
finding fault. Go to work. Do some
thing for somebody else-anything,
only so you keep bright and sunny
