Cheap Corn Does
Not Mean Burn
ing. 1t for Fuel

Chicago, Sept. 13.-Farmers that
raise corn are generally going to burn
none of it for fuel this winter ne
cause of low prices. That is the
judgment of agricultural authorities
in big corn raising states
II never burned any nor ever heard
of anybody burning any corn" said
ID. o. Thompson. secretary of the
Illinois Agricultural Association. Il
guess somebody figured out it could he
done and jumped TO the idea that it
was.
There will certainly be not much
if any of it done in Illinois We are
close to the coal fields and our fur
naces are better fitted for coal"
From Iowa comes this word from
Charles d. Reed. director Of the State
crop and weather service:
The idea that Iowa farmers might
burn corn this. winter is based on the
assumption that we are going to. have
80 cent corn. Even at that price the
margin would not be great enough to
warrant burning corn Farmers will
haul their corn to market and ex-
change it for coal. because corn makes
such very poor fuel"
j. c. Mohler. secretary of the Kan
sas State Board of Agriculture. said
Kansas farmers will feed their corn
to livestock, not put it in the stove. 1

statue of General Simon Bolivar in
New York that freedom in the Amer
lean continents was due principally
to two heroes. Washington and Bo.

an old controversy regarding the rel.

should pass a law providing ssOO,0M
Argentine paper with which to make
a motion picture film showing The
part played by the Argentine hero in
the struggle against Spain. The
plan is to have the picture displayed
in South America and in other lands
so that the world may have a better
understanding of the exploits of the
leader who captured Lima. Peru and

Historians of the southern part Of

Funeral de Luxe
For Alberto Alterio
A CamOrra Leader

Naples Aug. 26-(By Associated
press)-A funeral de luxe" is the
way the Naples newspapers de-
scribed the burial of Alberto Altcrio,
reputed to have been one of the
chiefs of the Camorra in America.
He was formerly n Camorra leader
in Naples but fed from here several
years ago
He settled in America. and is al
legged to have amassed a fortune OF
$4,000 by black mail. He was as
sassinated in New York a few weeks
hack and his body brought back to
Italy by his wife. Tho funeral was
attended by thousands of Neopol-
itans. The body was borne on the
elaborate hearse which is reserved
only for notables, among them of
recent memory. Enrico Caruso.
Alterio's funeral was an event.
The religious service in the church
was marked with all the possible
pomp and ceremony attendant on flu
nerals given to high dignitaries of
church and state. An orchestra of
almost 100 pieces accompanied the
mass which was still augmented in
impressiveness by a large choir.
The church, st. James of the Span
ish Mobiles. was deliberately hung in
mourning. folds of tapestry being
suspended about the walls and CELL
ing. Quite a number of priests of
ficiated at the ceremony.
The funeral procession was of
great moment. In it, marched prac-
tically all of Alterio's associates in
his profession. A dozen or more men
shouldered a large floral offering
which was carried in the procession.
The design on it was that of clock
which registered the hour of half
past twelve, The cost of this has
been announced as 1000 lire.
The coffin also attracted much at
tention. 1t has been chronicled that
it came from America, cost $4,000
and was engraved in silver. The
crowd which followed the body to
the grave was a veritable amending

Stomach trouble is almost always
followed by a complication OF dis
eases. One of the first being an
overworked liver, with all the symp-
toms of biliousness, followed in turn
with headaches, coated tongue, nau-
sea, dizzy spells, pain in the back
paIpitation of the heart and other
distressing symptoms. Sooner OF
later the kidneys will become in
volved and that is just why these
danger signals should be needed IN
time. A wise man puts out the flre
before there is too much destruction;
the same theory should apply to
stomach trouble.
Gas in the stomach means fermen-
tation instead of digestion; decay,
instead Of nutrition for fermehta-

quently bring on the condition known
as auto-intoxication or self-poison-
ing. This is also why we develop
acidosis, which brings on so many
complications such as rheumatism,
pressure and other conditions. which
may mean permanent loss of health.
Acidosis is one Of the main fore
runners of Brights disease and dia
betes hence it is evident that if we
have stomach trouble, however
slight, we are foolish indeed if we do
not take prompt steps to correct it.
If we are not fit as fiddle in the
morning; if we don't feel better than
when we went to bed; if. our breath
is offensive and we have that bad
taste in the mouth; nature has set
the danger signals for us and we
cannot afford to neglect the warn
ing that she gives us. That is just
why the demand for Tanlac, the

The old English settings were

rooms. and scenes were filmed in each
of the rooms.
Later this setting was torn away

a beautiful Italian villa, with prone
