1t is a fact, of course, that host
of farmers have been working very
hard for mighty small incomes, for at
least a year, but that they have been
working for two cents per day is news
to us.
According to the Indianapolis News
the president of the Bartholomew
county farm bureau remarked as fol-
lows: His (the farmer's) earning
power has been reduced until his av-
erage wage is less than two cents
day"
Having duly weighed this calamitous
statement the editor of The News cog
itates in this manner: This amounts
to less than $3.50 a year, and even a
plain fabric tire costs-well figure it
out for yourself. But it looks as if
it couldn't be done
In Order to Succeed.
A speaker at the farm bureau con-
vention told of the requisite qualities
10 insure success at farming. He
named six of them as follows: The
first is integrity. Next comes industry,
after which come four other essentials,
namely: Intelligence, initiative, inten-
sity and inspiration.
Now. gentlemen. you know all about
it. Very simple, isn't it?
Eggs and Chickens.
Farmers are not complaining of the
prices paid them for eggs, il they have
eggs to sell, but are objecting to the
prices quoted on live chickens. Gro
GERS are now paying SEC a dozen for
eggs and but IS cents per pound for
chickens, either fryers or roasters.
This means that you can get a little
more money for a single dozen of eggs
than for a three-pound fryer. More
over the three pound pullet will lay
| hundreds of eggs if saved and given
/ the chance. Better keep her.
Some are wondering why we have
/ been quoting chickens at IS cents for
so long a time. The reason for this
is the fact that the price has been
| pegged at that figure for weeks. We
give the buyers daily chance to quote
a new price, but the same old figure
apparently suits them. In a round
| of phone calls on Wednesday one man
| was discovered who was paying IS
/ cents for hens and "A cent or two less
for fryers. His prediction was that
chickens would soon be cheaper.
AS matter of fact, with ThankSgiv-
! ing and Christmas Teasing days so
near, we would rather expect an ad-
vance in all poultry prices.
The Holes in Swiss Cheese.
Not being a cheesemaker we are
unable to tell just how they manage
/ to get the right number of holes in
Swiss cheese, or to put them in the
+ right places. But the holes are there,
plenty of them, free of cost to consum-
ers.
Ohio is getting quite a reputation
| for this delicacy and Ohio makers of
Swiss cheese are to hold a state assoc
| iation meeting at Sugar Greek, on Nov.
e. at which point they are making
some fine imitation Swiss. Two of
/ the Ohio factories are using cultures
and adopting stricter grades and so
| have been able to sell at SO cents a
| pound against "a cents for the OUTPUT

 OF MAN ALLEGED
 TO BE EXT0RTl0NER
(By Associated Press.)

Philadelphia.-Det early to- day inadvertently spoiled the capture of a man alleged to have attempted to eXtort money from l.. T. States bury, widely known banker and mem Der of J. P. Morgan & Company, New York, on q threat of harm to him and his family. A letter had been sent to MT. Statesbury instructinS him to place a sum of money in a black box at the entrance of certain church. Detectives carried out the instructions and hid in a dark corner. When a man came along and picked up the box he was covered with pis- tols by the detectives. Thinking he was being held up by bandits the man started to hand over his money and watch. He claimed he was on his way to work when he saw the box. The police after investigation found his story true and released him. There is no clue to the writer of the letter.
 Detectives said a number of per sons socially prominent have re- gently received similar letters.

TO PAY HOMAGE
 TONIGHT

To one little group of men in Bridgeport, today. Lincoln's birthday means more than a mere holiday. It is a day set aside for the whole United States to do honor to the memory of the Great Emancipator, and the members of Elias Howe, IT,, post, G. A. R., who were part of that great army of the "Boys in Blue,' have not forgotten their chief He will never be forgotten by true Americans.
 Not least among the veterans of the local G. A. R. post is John Jarvis, of 749 Main street, a colored bug1er Abraham throughout the bloody struggle of 1S61-65. John is now an old man, but he still clings to his campaign hat. one of his most prized possessions. EXcel the hat, John has little but memories to remind him of the war in which he fought.
 At the time of Lincoln's assassina- tion. Jarvis was on detached duty in Washington, D. C., having been or dered to the Capitol after the con- clusion of the war Several men were hanged for participating in the plot, and Jarvis sounded taps over their bodies after the execution.
 In honor of the members of Elias Howe, Jr., post, the Harry Congdon post, American Legion will hold an entertainment tonight in the club house in Golden Hill street. It is ex- pected that every local member of the G. A. R. will attend >the good time.
 Today, the one hundred ana twelfth anniversary of the birth o Abraham Lincoln, is a legal holiday marked by quiet observances ir Bridgeport.

BRIDGEPORT TOPS STATE
 IN SAVINGS

Bridgeport is leading the state in postal savings deposits. Figures is sued at the local post office this morning show that s6S6,14O has been deposited here as against S41,314 in Hartford and S45S, S,421 in New Haven.
 During January, postal savings de- posits in the United States increased s250,O00. It is estimated that the total deposits on February 1 amount ed to S163, ,650,000. Twelve post of fees, most of them in far western states reported an increase of more than S20,O00 during the past month.
 Through a new ruling recently is sued at Washington, postal savings accounts may now be transferred from one post office to another. This will make possible a transfer of funds without drawing the money from the post office in which it was originally deposited When changing an ao- count from one post office to another in the past, the depositor lost inter est which was accommodating and also had to pay the cost of a money order to the new post office.

MIR. CUPID KNOTS 76
 IN MONTH

Dan Cupid has been a busy little fellow in Bridgeport and seems to show no concern for the economic problems that are fast adding grey hairs above fathers wrinkled brow. An unusual preLenten rush for mar riage licenses has been reported by the Bureau of Vital Statistics, which today stated that licenses issued dur ing the first six weeks of 1921 were the largest recorded in five years.
 Although the total of licenses dur ing the first 10 days of February was not so large as the number issued in the same period in January, neverthe- less it is a big increase over the same period a year ago. Five licenses a day were given out during January for a record total of 160 during the entire month.
 Since February ss licenses have been issued in the period that is usually marked by a rush to marry before the starting of the Lenten sea son, during which weddings are not sanctioned in Roman Catholic or Episcopal churches.
 A marked decrease is looked for by the officials during the Lenten periods.

McCRACKEN IS HONOR GUEST OF AUTO SHOW MEN

One of the pleasant sidelights of the Bridgeport automobile show was staged in the breakfast room at the Stratfield late last night l.. J. Mo Cracken, manager of the show, was .abused,' afterward made the hero .o of the occasion and presented with a ssolid gold watch, gift from the as sociation, topped off with a gold chain and pencil, a token from the officers.
 About so members were in attend ance with John c. Mattice, presiding in the. absence of President Schiott, who is in Norway.
 MT. McCracken was in despair at 10:30 last night when tales of dis satisfaction from different member reached him of the Unsatisfactory manner in which the show was con- ducted. At Il o'clock NcCracken was inviegled by Secrejlry and Treasurer Pawlett to stop fin at the Stratfield.
 After some persuaton MT. Me Cracken consented. Presently he found himself in the brilliantly light ed breakfast room where the guests were assembled.
 The meeting got underway and Mir McCracken found himself again the target. The tide turned when Will jam Smith, chairman of the show committee, took the floor and warml, congratulated McCra cken and pre- scented him with the timeDiece, mono grammed with his initials.
 One Of the features was a congratu latory cable sent by President Schiott
