LEGION WINS COURT BATTLES
Damages Allowed National organiza-
ton in First Litigation Instituted
Two Editors Indicted.

From the first cOc2t action which it
ever instituted to protect it's name,
the American Legion emerged victori-
ous Judgment by default and dam
ages were awarded the Legion in the
suit against Francis III. Shoemaker of
Omaha, Neb, who was quoted as say
ing that the Legion was subsidized by
big interests" and was opposed to or
ganized labor"
Shoemaker, who is an alleged radi-
cal worker, made a speech last Deem
Der in Omaha, during the course of
which he is said to have referred to
the Legion as ian organization of
trained murderers opposed to organ
ICED labor" Suit was brought by the
Legion commander in Nebraska on the
ground that the statements were
wicked false and malicious and for
the purpose of stopping such con-
temptible lies and showing union labor
that we resent charges of being OPP
posed to them"
The Legion has also secured indict-
ments against two editors Of the Illt-
nois Stats Zeitung, a German-lan-
guage newspaper, for an editorial
which appeared in their paper libeltng
ax-service men.

Government by Commission.

The commission form of city gov
eminent varies widely in the different
the combining of all legislative and
executive powers in a single body, usu-
ally consisting of from three to seven
members. These members are elected
at large. The mayor, as rule, is one
of the commission, but has no more
power than his associates, though be-
ing the official head of the city. The
administrative work of the commission
is divided into departments, each
headed by one commissioner. AS
safeguard the commission form of gov
eminent almost invariably includes ini-
tiatiye. referendum and recall.

Representative of New York is the
case of Chas. E. Van Colts family re-
siding at 129 Fourth Ave., Albany. nc
says: Every member of our family Is
enthusiastic over Tanlac. It's certainly
medicine for all the family"
From far-away Canada comes TINS
message: MY little girl, my son ana
myself are all enjoying splenulu
health now and Tanlac brought 1t all
about" Mrs. Bert Hewer, 1913 East
Avenue, Toronto, Ontario.
"We call Tanlac The Family Medl-
cine here in our Virginia home De-
cause it restored my mother ana slsIer
to perfect health, just the same as IL
has done me-" is the enthusiastic
statement of Mrs. ]. f. Robertson
Danville, Va.
And on through the list, men, women
and children from every state IN the
Union and every province of Canaua
unhesitatingly come forward and ten
in words ringing with sincerity OF the
wonderful benefits of health and nap
piness that Tanlac has brought into
their homes that were formerly dark
ened by the gloom of sickness, surfer
ing and despair.
And should yours be one of those
homes where any member of the fam
lily is thin, run down and weakened
from loss of appetite, caused by indi-
gestion and stomach troubles, you have
at your very door the means that will
no doubt bring the sunshine of vigor-
Gus health back into their lives and
yours, just as it has done in so many
thousands of other cases. Do not de-
lay. Get bottle of Tanlac froIG your

I've put Tanlac to the test four
times right in my own family and it
hasn't failed me once" declared Mr..
Gingras. MY wife, my son and my
daughter, as well as myself, have all
been built up from a half-sick, run
down. WORKOUT set of people into a
healthy, happy family brimful of new
life and energy"
And the experience of this family Is
only typical of thousands of others
whose statements are on file in the
Tanlac offices. Hardly a day passes
that does not bring scores of such mes
sages of praise from every part of the
United States and Canada from fami-
lies where mother, father, son and
daughter have all found health, con-
tentment and the joys Of living
through simply taking a course of
Tanlac.
Take, for instance, the case of John
Widner, 1871 Roosevelt Ave-, Los An
geles, Calf, who says: "My wife, my
self and little boy are now as healthy,
happy family as you will ever see
and it's all due to Tanlac."
Or that of Mrs. John Marquis and
her family of sixteen living in Man
chester, N. H., at 292 Belmont st.
She says: "Tanlac has been the only
medicine used in our house for two
years and it has kept every one of the
sixteen here in the best of health"
In Chicago, Frank r. Richards, of
AL South Wood ST., writes: "We will
never be without Tanlac in our house
after the remarkable way it has built
up my wife, my son and myself to
where we are the very picture of
health"

quires no more time or labor to care
for the one than for the other.
At the last census-1920-les than
3 per cent of the dairy cows in the
United States were pure-breds. The
average milk production per cow was
under 1000 pounds. 1t is a mighty
poor pure-bred and lone that breeders
do not consider worth keeping, that
does not give more than twice that
amount.
The second requirement for success
with dairy herds is the right sort of
housing. Dairy animals to produce at
their maximum must have warm, we'll
ventilated quarters during the five or
six months they are not on pasture.
They must have continuous supply
of fresh water. Those are the re-
quirements for maximum milk flow.
Shown in the illustration is the type
of barn that dairymen build to house
their herds. This dairy barn is small
designed TO house 20 cows-but it
has the requirements that go to make
dairying profitable. 1t is well con-
strueted, weathertight frame building,
set on a concrete foundation. The
stable floor is of concrete, also, max
ing it easy to keep clean and sanitary.
Above the dairy stable is NOW room
for a supply of hay large enough to
carry the animals through the winter,
while by adding silo at one end
the dairyman will have storage
capacity for all the feed the cows will
require during the months they are in
doors.
The barn is of what Is known as
"plank frame construction" method of
building that eliminates posts in the
NOW floor, the roof being self-support-
ing. The barn is SO feet wide, a size
that barn architects have found to be
the most economical to build and suf-
ficient for two rows of stalls. feed
ing alley through the center and lit
Ter alleys along the sides.
The floor plan that accompanies the
exterior view of the building shows
how the stalls are arranged. They are

anything that would make him look

If you want to be typical you will
have to stack up as follows: Height, 5
feet 101a inches; weight, 100 pounds;

Mettlen's other specifications are that
he enlisted when nineteen years old,
while still freshman at Nebraska uni

for bravery; that he is as active in the
American Legion now as he was in the
Sixteenth infantry then, and that, in
addition to being typical American,
he is Scotch-Ir Irish.
