Darke County Tobacco News.
We are in receipt of letter from
F. T. Brant, of Greenville. written in
reply to our inquiry with reference to
the outlook for tobacco acreage in
Darke county, in which he says:
Regarding the tobacco situation,
would state that while last years
crop is principally all sold. there re-
mains, however, a few crops still on
the farms. The average prices paid
for the various varieties were as fol-
lows: Seed leaf from 10 to IL cents;
Spanish, IL to 16 cents; Dutch about
same price as the Spanish.
"The Darke county acreage last year
was Sc per cent. of the ten-year aver
age. Our acreage this year will ex
coed that of 1920 by at least Is per
cent. The general outlook at this time
reflects a possible range Of prices OF
! from 10 to II cents per pound for the
| 1921 crop. Owing to the general de
cline in prices of farm products it is
reasonably safe to predict a larger
tobacco acreage and slightly lowed
prices. All of which depends on for
eign as we'll as domestic develop
ments, during the few months to come
after which it will be easier to judge
what we may expect to get for the
newly ripened leaf But at any rate
tobacco is no more betraying of oul
confidence in the final result, than i:
wheat or corn, so far as the risk of {
crop and profitable prices are con
cerned."

many valuable and interesting lam

A resolution was adopted unani-
mously which strongly protests
against the transfer Of the United
States Forest Service from the Agri-
cultural Department to another de-
partment, either as a whole or piece
meal, they being united in the belief
that the Forest Service belongs with
the agricultural interests, with which
it, is the most closely identified, and
that it is too great department of
itself for the unit to be divided.
The resolution of protest will be sent
to all senators and representatives in
Congress. 1t was brought about by
the fact that the annual proposition
on the part of some people to make
such a change has again appeared.

Tribute to Major "BiII"

Major William G. Goodwin GOT the
State quartermasters department at
Augusta, who was~in Portland the
other day inspecting the property Of
one of the local National Guard COM
panies. has been connected with the
National Guard a great many years.
fie has been a very efficient officer OF
the State and in his custody is all Of
the government property which has
been issued to Maine. There is little
about the care and preservation of
this property that Major Goodwin
does not understand. He knows all
the ms and outs of issuing it and
keeping track of it and he has at his
fingers ends all the records which
show where it is located and who is
responsible for it. Hundreds of thou
sands if not millions of dollars worth
of property Of various kinds have
passed through Major Goodwin's
hands. and by his system and care he
has undoubtedly been instrumental
in saving the State great many
thousands of dollars. Major Goodwin
is popular among the officers Of the
National Guard in spite of the fact
that he holds them to strict account
ability. Many an officer, having
property in his custody is indebted to
the State quartermastor for sugges-
tons and helps in taking care of it
and locating some of it which has
turned up missing. Like many
another efficient man. Major Bill. as
'everyone calls him. is inclined to be
a little grouchy at times but the Of
ficers soon come to realize that his
bark is much worse than his bite and
that's the reason he is welcomed
whenever he has occasion to make
his trips of nspection.-Portland

Yank Soldier Makes
Criminal Record
AstOnishes Chinese

Shanghai, Oct. 14-(By maiD-
Amos f. Norman, who was an AM
erican soldier in the 10th Infantry at
Tientsin, has proved himself the
most dramatic figure of recent Grim
inal annals in China and after hold
ing the interest of foreigners gener-
ally in China Dor a period of 80 days
he has been taken in charge by the
army authorities and is to face court
martial Norman was arrested as a
deserter in Shanghai last spring and
escaped from his captors by leaping
from a second story window. 1t was
then found that after he had quit the
army he had retained his own name
and has been able to obtain a posi-
ton in the Chinese customs service
He was arrested again in August and
in the first week of September with
companion, Henry Muncie, who
was also being held as,na deserter
from the 18th Infantry, he carried out
a sensational escape from the Ameri-
can prison after he had dashed am
monia into the face of his jaier
Muncie was arrested shortly after the
two escaped, but Norman remajne in
hiding and when a Russian girl with
whom he was infatuated was arrest
ed as an accomplice in the prison
break, he made remarkable effort
to shield her from the blame by
means of daily letters that were adj
dressed to the authorities through a
newspaper. 1t was through these
letters that the police OF the Interna-
tional Settlement at length were able
to ferret out his hiding place.

THE GEOGRAPHY RACE

Dear Sneezy: Web, / guess you are
having a good time getting butter-nuts
over on the island that you told me
about. If we want nuts here in the
city you got to buy them and then only
peanuts. or almonds. or other store
kinds. We can get nigger-toes, too.
but none Of them are as good as the
butter-nuts you sent last year. It's
mighty good for you. Sneezy, to send
some more this year. Us kids will be
glad when they come.
/ wish Dad would move us up to the
country so we could get nuts and
apples right off the trees and milk
cows and all those things. 1t must be
great, and it's good for a boy to have
all that kind of good times. Dad says
II you want to be a great man. or
president, you got to be born in little
town and teach school. That lets mo
out. Anyway I'd rather be a cowboy
or an aviator or a sailor even.
I may go to the country next sum-
mer again. that's if do well in school.
That isn't always as easy as II

sounds. I like some things all right,
but arithmetic and grammar gets my
goat. We got new way of learning
geography, though. and if all studies
was like geography school would be
more popular with us kids.
The new game is called The Geogra-
ply Race, and this is the way you do
it. The teacher marks off the board so
each row has space. Then she writes
the name of place at the top of each
space. We have one called New York
to San Francisco. When the teacher
says Go" the last kid in each row
runs to the board and writes the name
OF a city west Of New York and then
runs back and gives the chalk to the

Uncle Sam Has Bar
gain Sale of Stamps
SHANGHAI Post Office

Shanghai, Oct 12-(By maiD-The
United States Postal Agency at
Shanghai is probably the only AM
erican POST office that ever held what
may be called a bargain sale in
stamps. This happened this fall and
was made possible by fluctuation
in the rate of exchange.
About year ago as measure of
convenience for the public the AM
erican post Office placed on sale
stamps that could be purchased in
the currency of the country. based
in value upon the Mexican dollar.
STAMPS merely were the ordinary &c
and other stamps, but they bore in
black letters on their face-for the
two-centers--the words Shanghai
&c China" Soon after these stamps
were issued, by reason of a fiuctua-

football season is on. Write soon.
Your friend, yours truly.
