Says Farmers Are Doing Big Business

'"- . a. "eiS FiS bOihS Dig DuStNeSS.
The Washington County Farmers
Cooperative Company, organized in
Hagerstown in July with a capitaliza-
ton of $4,000, is doing business at
the rate OF half million dollars YEAR
ly, State Senator Frank w. Mish, presi-
dent OF the company, stated few days
ago. He said the organization had
sold 100 carloads of fertilizers and that
wheat was being bought at lie rate
of a carload a day. Corn, hay and
wool also are handled.
I'VE have increased the price of
wheat in Washington county consider
ably" said President Mish, "and this
at time when the farmer is engaged
in lifeand-death struggle for exist
ence. One day, when our organization
was paying S1.21 for wheat, Martins
burg was paying 81, Frederick 81 and
Mercersburg S1OS. calculate that
there is raised in Washington county
and marketed here from adjoining ter
ritory 100000 bushels OF wheat an
nually. Of this amount estimate
that by reason Of our cooperative or
ganization a total Of Sf5O,OOO has been
added to the farmers income from the
sales Of wheat"
The success of the cooperative
movement, he stated, was beyond the
most sanguine expectations and the
movment is rapidly expanding.

Identifying a Soldiers Body.

The body of Austin G. Michael, Of
the Twenty Division, who was
killed October. 1918, n France, was
buried last Sunday afternoon in Antie-
tam National Cemetery, Sharpsburg.
The funeral was in charge Of the Amer
lean Legion. Michael was a son OF
Daniel and Lettie V. Michael, Of
Bponsboro. Shortly before the armis-
tice was signed Mrs. Michael was noti-
fed that her son had been killed. La
ter she received from the Graves Reg
istration Service a photograph OF her
sons grave in France, but the cross
over the grave bore the name Andrew
A. Michael, instead of Austin c..
Michael. After the War Department
had written her that it was unable TO
explain the mistake, Mrs. Michael
received conflicting reports from two
chaplains, each claiming to have of
fciated at her sons funeral. Mrs
Michael then received several letters
from her sons fellow-comrades, one
stating that he saw Michael alive in a
hospital behind the lines. She also
received reports that her son had been
seen in several hospitals in the United
States. Mrs. Michael visited several
| hospitals but did not find her son.
For manv months she was in a state
OF uncertainty. Michael's body ar
! rived in Boonsboro Friday, and at an
undertaking establishment the casket
was opened and the body viewed by
his mother, DR.. E. T. Smith and DR..
Robert Lakin, a dentist. There was
very little flesh on the body and
Identification was made possible only
by fracture of the left arm.

pecially for booze running. The search
was in charge of Internal Revenue
Collector Kennedy and Dan Thompson
When the upholstery in the tonneau
of the car was ripped away, a deep
chamber reaching TO the metal of the
body came into view. The chamber
was filled with bottled whiskey, care
fully padded with excelsior.
The front seats of the ear were
searched and about 20 quarts more oof
whiskey were discovered cleverly con.
cealed in the cushions.
At the Chittenden county court
house, the rum runners gave their
names as George Besner, George Sonois
and Georgianna Sonois. They were
brought to Jail by officers of the local
police force in company with F. A.
