BLANTONS HYBRID IDEA

II remained for Representative Blan-
on of Texas, to add a new definition to
the encyclopedia of tariff lore. While
debating the emergency tariff bill in
the House the other day, Mr. Blanton
seriously declared: will say this, that
am for tariff for revenue only. 1t
is a Democratic principle, and | am
standing on that principle. But am
in favor of putting only sucn tariff on
any article, farm article or otherwise,
as not to form subsidization, but on
ly to be difference in equalization of
cost as between the cost of production
in this country and in foreign countri.
es. There is not an item in this bill
that covers more than that difference
in cost of production.
And then Mr.. Blanton serves this
warning on his Republican colleagues:
81 want to put you on notice now. as
to every bill that you bring in here
with tariff provision in it that seeks
to place duty highdr than the differ
ence in the cost of production between
this and foreign countries, that | am
going to fight against it, and you have
got to keep within that rule to get my
vote"
OF course the whole principle of pro-
lection to American industries, cham
ioned by the Republican party since its
organization, has been postulated on
that difference in the cost of produc-
tion Gin this country and in foreign
couutries," while the Democratic par
ty has championed the policy of free
trade, opportunizing now aud then with
talk of tariff for revenue only, or
what the late Representative E. j. Hill
called, ''free trade with a handicap" "
Mr.. Blanton's threat will not disturb
the Republicans. He is cordially iuvit-
ed to make good, and the majority of
the voters of his state are for protection.

POTATO MEN DEVELOP
OUT-OF-STATE MARKET.

Opening of markets in other states
for certified Michigan potato seed is a
result expected to follow demonstra-
tion work being started this spring by
the Michigan Potato Growers Associa-
ton. Comparison of the local stock
with the best that is being grown in
the other states is another Fundamental
object of the project, which is to be
carried on in Illinois, Indiana, Ohio
and Iowa.
Seed from ten different Michigan
growers of certified potatoes is being
sent out in each demonstration, thus
insuring broad basis for the compari-
son. County agents in the neighbor-
ing states are handling the cooperative
work from the planting end. A carload
of stock is being shipped for the tests,
about 100 demonstrations being plan.

EX-GOVERNOR FERRIS
GAVE SPLENDID
ADDRESS

One of the very best addresses that
East Jordan has been fortunate in list
ening to in long time was delivered
by Ex-Governor Ferris at the high
school auditorium last Friday night.
Mr.. Ferris talked on the subject of vo-
cational guidance and the elements that
enter into ones makeup which
tend to equip person for particular
line of work. The subject which is of
vital importance to everyone was
handled in a scholarly and scientific
manner. Young people who heard
this announced it the best and most in
spring lecture they ever listened to.
Mr.. Ferris spent all day Friday in
the East Jordan High school comforting
with the members of the senior class
relative to the work they are best fit
ed to do. Beyond doubt, the East
Jordan High School never spent more
profitable day than last Friday.

BULOW BROS. Sue
CEED L. c. MONROE
AT BILLIARD PARLORS.

Messrs Glenn and Fenton r. Bulow
have purchased the Billiard Parlors OF
L. C. Monroe, the change in manage
ment taking place last Sunday. Both
these gentlemen are well-known and
esteemed by our citizens, having grown
to manhood in our city, and will un-
doubtedly continue the success OF the
business which Mr.. Monroe established
a number of years ago. Both have had
considerable experience with East Jor-
dams business interests which will
serve them well in their new position.
Since "Larry" established the busi-
ness he has given it strict attention,
putting in long hours indoors, and
feels the need of getting out in the
open. He will undoubtedly resume
his former position with his father in
contracting work.

Garden Notes
(By M. A. c. Horticultural Dept.)

Early cabbage plants should be in
the garden now. If necessary to pur-
chase plants, Early Jersey Wakefield is
good variety.
A small tarred felt disk placed on the
ground around the stem of each plant
will help control the cabbage maggot.
Early potatoes are now being planted
on warm sandy soils. Irish Cobbler
and Early Ohio are excellent varieties
to grow in Michigan.
For potato scab, soak the tubers 80
minutes in a solution of Formalin q
pint to 80 gallons of water). This
should be done before the potatoes are
cut.
This is good time to divide and re-
set perennial Towering plants such as
larkspur and phlox. These often do
better if the clumps are divided every
three or four years.
strawberry Shortcake in October.
You can have it if you set everbearing
strawberry plants now. We have
found the Snperb one of the best var
ieties of this type.
Better tomato plants are secured by
giving them plenty of space in which to
grow. Remove the plants from the
seed boxes and transplant them at
least two inches apart in flats or shall
low boxes.

SMOOT SALES TAX.

Senator Reed Smoot of Utah has in
troduced his bill for a sales tax to take
the place of the excess profits tax
which it is proposed to repeal. The
measure places levy OF per cent on
all sales, both of raw materials and
finished products, in excess of $1,000.
The exemption is made for the benefit
of farmers and small merchants. Ii is
estimated that the tax would yield
about 1900, ,OOO,O 900 annually. Senator
Smoot says that his tax would be simple
in application, easy to compute, and
exceedingly difficult to escape. He
declares that it would add an average
of only 81 per cent to the selling price
of an article, whereas the Department
of Justice has asserted that the objec-
tional excess profits tax is responsible
for an average increase in brice of up
wards OF % per cent

Tuberculin Tests
Need fOrWOrkShOwn by Increase
of tuberculosis Cases.

Two years ago DIR. Theodore S. Rich,
director of tuberculosis eradication of
tbs state department of animal industry
predicted that by 1921 entire counties
would apply to place their csttle under
state and federal supervision for the
purpose of wiping out tuberculosis and
obtaining healthy herds. At that time
individual herd owners were beginning
to demand the test.
Within the past few weeks DIR. Rich's
prophecy has come true. Supervisors
OF Jackson county have $1,000 to coop
crate with the division of animal in
dustry-now a branch of the new de-
partment of agriculture-in eradicat-
ing bovine tuberculosis in that county,
while Wayne and Hillsdale county sup
ervisors have each appropriated $500
for similar purpose. Emmett, Charlie
voix, Antrim, Grsnd Traverse, and Go
gebic counties have also made approp-
riations.
Early in the year the tuberculin test
ing OF cattle In Livingston county was
begun, with the result that up to April
l, 500 herds-composing more than
5000 cattle-were tested and placed
under state and federal supervision
But percent of the 5000 head were
"reacters rs"-declared to be an excep-
tionally low percentage, since on the
average apout 5 out Of every 100 cattle
in Michigan are tuberculous. People
are low being urged to use milk from
heads that have been government test
ed and shown free from disease.
Need for the combined effort of all
organizations and agencies in fighting
tuberculosis of every form is shown,
according to officials of the state de-
partment of health, by the increase of
491 reported cases of tuberculosis
among humans during the first quarter
of 1921 over the same period of 1920.
Recent governmental studies have
proved that Is percent of tuberculous
individuals receive their infection from
, bovine sources.

The Screen Mountain Boys" was a
name assumed by body of soldiers
from Vermont In the Revolutionary
war. They captured Fort Ticonderoga
at the battle of Bennington. They
were organized originally by Ethan
Allen to oppose the claims Of New
York to the territory of Vermont. The
Green Mountain Boys were the first
to ask that Vermont be regarded as
state. This was not granted until
1791, when Vermont was admitted as
the fourteenth state.

SCHOOL OUTLOOK
MEETINGS

AT recent meeting of school offic-
ers from districts adjoining Bay Shore
the officers present seemed favorable
to consolidation. They believed, how
ever, that Hayes township could not
form one complete school district, as
there was geographically no common
center. If districts from Emmett county
could be induced to join with them, the
districts near Bay Shore seemed to
think Bay Shore would be a natural
community and school center. They
fixed the campaign for the later-fall of
1921 and early months of 1922. Mr..
Archie Chew of Burgess district was
elected leader to call the first district
meeting next fall in forming campaign
plans for bigger better school.
School and township officers of Mel
rose township met at Walloon Lake on
the evening Of April 16 to discuss prob
lens similar to those of Hayes town
ship. The officers present decided
that Melrose is geographically fitted for
S central school. They believed that it
would be mistake to consider a dist
rict of any other formation to begin with
than the entire township. This wonld
give a taxing area large enough for
school purposes and the school center
could be easily agreed upon. If only
one or two districts joined and later
one or two more, the original school
site might not be suitable for the en-
tire district as finally arranged for. For
these reasons the Melrose officers wish
to vote on consolidation in two steps,
first on township unit of control, and
secondly on consolidation. A petition
is now being circulated to get the re-
quired number of signers for calling
special election in this township.
Miss Stewart is explaining the diff
erence between the township unit and
the consolidated school in each distsict
OF the township at mass meeting call
ed by the school board in every school
house. Much interest is manifested
and prospects are good for successful
consolidation campaign with the first
step resulting in township unit dist
rict in Melrose township. Even tho
strongly for consolidation, Supt. A. A.
Metcalf of Boyne City has consented
to debate the negative of the question
with Rev. r. w. Merrill in the affirm
ative in Walloon Lake at the United
Brethren Church on the evening of
May IL. 1t is very difficult to take the
negative side of this question and it
speaks well for Mr.. Metcalf's unselfish
interest in school problems of the
county. He promises to make Mr..
Merrill work hard for at least once in
his life.

Meetings of school officers in Bay
township, Norwood and Chandler will
be held this week. The problem is
far reaching and must be solved one
way or the other at some future date.
Since most of the school electors of the
county are studying the question from
day to day, it seems best that each
should have in mind some definite ter
ritory to which he may apply his argu-
ments and defense.

"Area of Possible Locations Ex-

Otto B. Cutler. president of the To-
peka Hotel company. stated today that
the plan to se-funds for hotel here
did not include the support of any
particular site.
There has been, and probably will
continue to be. much discussion as to
the proposed site of the hotel" Mr.
Cutler said. I'VE think the need of
a hotel is paramount in the minds of
all, but at the same time, and very
properly, there is great interest in its
location.
This seems to be natural and fair
enough. As one man said:

more than probable that this board
will have no more to do with the Sc
lection OF q, site than anyone else. If
the necessary stock is subscribed, the
common stockholders will elect direc-
tors who will select the site.
TT might become necessary or adj
visable to receive proposals by which
property IS taken and paid for in
stock rather than cash. But whether
that situation arises or not, my opinion
is that the men who will finally de-
termine the site are men whom no one
yet knows.
.'The site will eventually be deter
mined in conference with the architect
selected and your proposed lessee. One
location may Justify a better return
than the other. Neither the architect
nor the lessee has been selected, and
