SLUMS ARE DISAPPEARING
Address at the Conve 1tion of tn.
World League Against Alcoholism

(By E. S. Shumaker, Superintendent
OF the Indiana Anti-Saloon League)
The most remarkable effect of Pro-
hibition in Indiana has been the almost
complete transformation of what has
been known hitherto as the submerged
tenth. The slums of Indiana have
almost disappeared and will in an
other decade, unless the unexpected
should occur of the state and nation
again going wet, have disappeared in
our Judgment, altogether. Squalor
and misery on account of poverty
ridden conditions are being gradually,
but surely eliminated, and our edu-
Gators tell US that the transition for
better in our public schools has been
little short OF miraculous. Children
are better clothed, better fed, and
have better home conditions now than
under the regime OF the liquor traffic.

No sane person knowing Names

ton. for a moment that Prohibition
has been worth to her many times it's
cost.
Maine, despite the thinness of her
soil, the rigor OF her climate, and the
scantiness of her natural resources,
measures up we'll with other states i'll
financial credit. The last report of
the bank commissioner shows that
Maine has more depositors in her saw

PLAYED HAVOC WITH JAILs

ADDRESS at the Convention OF the
World League Against Alcoholism
(By Robert L. Corradini, N. Y City,
In spite OF politicians and lax en-
forcement Prohibition has played
havoc with the jails and the penal iu-
situations in the state OF New York.
In the first three years of Prohibit
ton there were committed to all the
penal institutions OF the state 85,754 in
dividuals fewer than in the last two
years before Prohibition.
During a recent visit we found thai
in the Monroe county penitentiary
eight out OF every ten cells were
empty. In New Albany county peni-
tertiary seven out OF 70 had no in
mates. In the penitentiary at James
Vile, right outside of Syracuse there
were committed in the last full year of
Prohibition 1000 men and women.
OF these 900 were committed for in
toxication. In the first year of Pro-
hibition the commitments from 9
counties with an increased population,
were to the penitentiary 2S3 persons
and only Fl for intoxication.

was on. North Dakota had very large
acreage of small grain and was de-
pendent on transient laborers to har-
vest and thresh in the fall. This
brought thousands OF laborers to the
state and along with them came the
thugs, hold-up men, and gamblers.
Most of these laboring men were
drinkers and on rainy days would go
into the small towns and at the sa-
looms become intoxicated and there
ensued alterations, fights, cutting
ARRAYS, shooting scrapes and often
murder. '-

SALOONS ARE REPLACED BY
BETTER BUSINESS
World League Against Alcoholism


(By w. L. Wade, Superintendent of
the Wyoming Anti-Saloon League)
Almost without exception the towns
and cities of Wyoming have made
splendid progress and great develop
ment under Prohibition. Buildings
formerly occupied by saloons have as
a rule been remodeled and improved
and continually rented at a higher
rate of rental A walk down the
streets of Cheyenne will reveal the
buildings formerly occupied by sa-
looms now occupied by music, grocery,
dry goods, gents furnishings, ladies'
furnishings, confectionery stores, res
taurants, tailor shops, etc, but with
out exception these buildings have
been improved and we understand the
owners are receiving higher rate of
rental.

please convey to the delegates my
best wishes and hearty congratulations
on the program already achieved. Tell
them not to be deceived by the effort
of the liquor interests to interpret the

the kind In my Judgment America

am happy to state that Prohibition
has wrought wonders for North Caro-
Ina While it has done its greatest
work in the Improvement OF the NOR
ais and happiness OF the people, its
worth to the state in material things
has been wonderful Since Prohibition
became effective in this state we have
grown by leaps and bounds in every
way. In the mountain sections where
once we could not afford to build any
thing but log cabins for school houses
and certainly could not afford to put
many windows in them because pass
ing drunkards would shoot them out
on moonlight nights, we now have
splendid buildings. Our savings bank
deposits have been multiplied by

GREATEST ECONOMIC FACTOR
Address at the Convention of the
World League Against Alcoholism

(By r. p. Hutton, Superintendent of
the Wisconsin Anti-Saloon League)
!. Prohibition took effect Jan. 10,
1920. 1t was year of peak prices.
The last seven months factories were
closing because people refused to buy.
Corporation SURPRISES were wiped out,
regular bank deposits alariningly de-
pleted, yet enormous bond offerings
were sold. To whom? The bonds
were bought by the multiplied thou
sands of new savings depositors with
their multiplied millions of increased
savings deposits-26 per cent increase
that first year; 10 per cent again this
year.
2. Prohibition savings saved manu-
featuring from bankruptcy.
3. BY preventing bankruptcy of the
companies, they prevented unemploy-
ment.
4. Prohibition savings gave the
workmen share in industry, thus pro-
noting better mutual understanding
of each others viewpoint between en-
ployers and employees.
S. Prohibition has increased milk
consumption nearly 50 per cent, thus
saving our largest industry, dairying-
E. Prohibition and its savings slim
ulated home building, thus helping our
next largest industries, lumber and
iron.
Prohibition has been the largest eco
nomic factor in Wisconsin the last
three years.

DAIRY
FACTS
APPLE-PECTIN AS cow FEED
Pulp Should Prove Valuable Adjunct
to Fare Of Animal When Com
pared With sIIaae.

| prepared by the United States Department
Of Agriculture.)
That dried apple-pectin pulp should
prove a valuable adjunct to the fare
OF the dairy COW is the conclusion
drawn from analyses and feeding trials
conducted by the bureau of chemistry,
United States Department of AgricuI-
ture, in collaboration with the Bureau
OF Animal Industry. This feed made
a favorable showing when compared
with dried beet pulp and corn silage.
Apple-pectin pulp is the by-product
remaining after pectin has been ex-
tracted from apple pomace, or, as it
Is sometimes called, eider-press cake.
After the pectin has been extracted
about three-fourths of the total weight
OF the pulp Is water, rendering 1t sub
ject to rapid spoilage. Heretofore It
has been thrown away, but it has been
found that when the pulp is dried
1t can be kept for a considerable time
and, because of its reduced weight,
handled and shipped economically.
Some manufacturers have recently In
stalled evaporators for drying the
pulp in order to market the product
for stock feed.
The feeding experiment included a
preliminary test with one COW for a
period Of 20 days, and a later one
with cows. The dried pectin pulp
was always mixed with three times its
weight of water several hours before
feeding. In the first test the COW was
fed corn silage for 20 days, then, after
a transition period Of days, she was
given pectin pulp for 20 days, and,
after another transition period Of
days. she was fed corn silage for an
other 20 days. In all these periods
grain was fed in connection with the
The average production during the
corn-silage feeding-periods was 312

Of the homes Of friends may appeal to
the prospective builder. Plans of other
homes that the architects have de-
signed, or that the contractor has
erected may be just what is wanted If
some minor changes are made.
1t is as a suggestion to prospective
home builders that the house shown in
the accompanying illustration is pre-
sented. At first glance this house will
appear to be an elaborate structure.
But 1t is not. It is really a square
house, % feet wide and 80 feet deep.
But the pleasing appearance is secured
by the gable In the roof at the front
and by the porch. Before studying the
exterior appearance take a look at the
floor plans that also are shown. The
heavy lines denote the foundation. It
will readily be seen that the founda-
ton walls are straight-there are no
angles that increase the cost Of the
building considerably.
The house is of standard frame con-
set on a concrete foundation.
Up to the second floor the exterior
walls are covered with stucco. Above,
ordinary clapboard siding is used. The
stuccO may be applied over either
wood or metal lath, or the patented
stucco bases that all material dealers
handle. The contrast between the
walls and the clapboards
above the second floor gives this house
a most attractive appearance. Also
the succeed porch walls and pillars
and the turn Of the steps are good fea-
lures of this design.
The house contains seven rooms,

R0ad PROGRAM IS Approved.

Lafayette, La.-John T. Patterson,

tour over four main highway units in
the Lafayette parish road Improvement
program for 1922, and approved all
four roads. These projects include the
portion of the Pershing Way between
Lafayette and Opelousas which st.
Landry is to build to connect with
the Lafayette road, recently complet-

has been hard-surfaced already, but
five miles in St. Martin parish remain
to be done, Federal aid is to be avail
able and the three parishes interested
have the money on hand for their
portion.
