Word comes from Los Angeles that
a detective agency has begun a ma
tion-wide search for still more wo-
men, who may have gone through mar

former vice crusader, held here pend

the Los Angeles Times recently in
lconnection with its publication of a
diary kept for two and half years
by one of Stewards wives. Mrs. Ethel
Turner Osbaldeston Stewart, who says
she loved him now and always will
love him Another document credit

GOVERNMENT BooTLEGGlNG

1t happens that it was a ST. Louis
brewer who sent a letter to President
Harding about the sale of liquor on
Shipping Board vessels. 1t happens
that he is of German extraction, as
Chairman Lasker taunts him with be-
ing. But what bearing has that on
the case?
OF course, President Harding knew
that liquor was openly sold on Ship
ping Board liners outside the three
mile limit. The st. Louis brewer told
him nothing new. 1t was matter of
common knowledge. The Shipping
Board widely advertised the fact with
an eye to attracting passengers. With
that purpose it had deliberately set
aside the Volstead act on American
vessels at sea and operated bars and
sold wine, whiskey, beer and other
alcoholic beverages. Naturally Chair
man Lasker does not deny it. He CON
firms it. He could not do anything
else. And he intends to keep on SELL
ing liquor The Government is not
going TO quit bootlegging until it IS
forced to.
It is absurd for members of Con-
gress to pretend to be panied. shocked
and surprised at the discovery of the
Shipping Boards methods. Will cant
and hypocrisy never end in Washing
ton? So long as foreign ships are
not run on Prohibition lines the Ship
ping Board must meet them on equal
terms or abandon the passenger-carry-
ing field. 1t has accepted the advice
OF its counsel and disregarded the Vol
stead act outside the three-mile limit.
Either that, or admit that it cannot
face competition on the sea.
Rather than authorize the Shipping
Board to do legally what it is doing
Tor business reasons, it is proposed
IN Congress to retaliate on foreign
vessels by denying them the right
to touch at American ports if thew
have liquor on board This is prohibi-
ton run mad. The Government pro-
fesses to shut off the sale of liquor
on land, which it has not done: then
sanctions it on Government ships
in violation of law, and now is asked
by way of punishment to outlaw for
eign ships that carry liquor for the
use of their own passengers at sea.
What next will we undertake as the
most virtuous people in the world for
the regulations of eyerybody's priv
ate habits New York World.

THE "wEAKER SEX" PROVING EF-

A special from Ojus. on the east

country where there are women
sherlfis. such officials for the most
part rely upon male deputies to do
the heavy work" necessary to en-
forcement OF the law but in Florida

MILK. THE INDISPENSABLE FOOD

For a long time students of nutri-
tiCn have said that milk. is about the
most valuable food known. Now they
are beginning to say that il is neces-
sary-or Indispensable food.
In verification of this latter conten-
zion, certain experiments with rats
have been carried on ut The Florida
State College for Women. Miss Juan
ita Darrah, who conducted these ex-
periments, in explaining the ,eesson
to be learned therefrom, has the fol-
living to cay:
I'm order to illustrate the value of
milk in the diet, white rats of the
SAME Hitter were separated from the
mother and fed as follows: Number
l, diet typical of certain rural sec
ticns of Florida, minus milk; Number
2. the same food, plus milk equivalent
to cupful a day In che diet of a
child; Number 3, the same food, plus
milk equal to a quart a day in the
diet of a child.
RAT Number 2 grew to more than
double the size and weight of Number
l. Number more than outstrippcd
all the rest. At the end of ten months
Number weighed little less than
four times as much as Number /, all
tho the only difference in care and
feeding had been the milk. Further
more, Number bore two litters of
young and reared them successfully.
milk supplies complete protein,
all minerals except iron, and the vita
mines necessary for health"

SELECT YOUR SEED CORN WHILE
THE STALKS ARE STILL
GREEN

4 pedigree for an ear Of corn is
just as important as a pedigree for an
animal. Perhaps it is more important
for the corn, because the animal itself
is some indication of the offspring it
will produce. But the ear of corn is
full of surprises.
If the farmer waits until next spring
to select corn from the crib, the size
and apparent condition OF the grain
will be the only basis of selection.
OF course large ears are desirable if
they were produced under average
conditions, but such ears are usually
grown on stalks that received an
abundance of food, plenty of mois-
ture, and sunlight, and when subject
ed to average conditions they will pro-
duce a large majority of inferior off,
spring.
Every farmer should know the par
entage of every ear from which he
plants, according to the specialists of
the College of Agriculture. The only
way to know the parents is to go
into the field and select the seed while
the stalks are still growing, and when
the conditions under which the. ears
we're produced can be determined.
No ear grown upon a stalk that en-
joys the advantages of rich soil,
plenty of room. and moisture should
be selected. Its offspring will not
enjoy such advantages. A big ear
does not indicate much. but big ear
produced on a stalk in competition
with other stalks is a good ear for
seed.
Attention should be paid TO the To-
cation of the stalk. condition of the
leaves. position of ear on the stalk,
size OF ear, the shuck, and length OF
shank. Ears that are selected should
be marked so that further selection
can Oe made when they have matured.

WANTS JOB WHILE
SERVING JAIL TERM
SEEKS CONTRACT WITH THE
COUNTY TO PAINT PRISON
WHILE AN INMATE.

Judge L. c. Hoyl, who is clerk of
the board of county commissioners,
has received letter from J. H. Har-
per, a white man who is serving jail
sentence imposed in the city court for
violating the prohibition law, in which
the prisoner seeks employment by the
county commissioners to paint the jail
while he is confined there. In his let
ter he says the jail surely does need
it," and that Il could pass off the
time that way and make some money
to leave here on when | do get out. "
Writing of his trouble the prisoner,
who has an eye to business and wants
to make some money for himself dur
ing his confinement, says: Il have been
trapped all the way. Them fellows OF
fered to pay my fine il | would take
everything on myself. SO | did, but
they fell down OF me, and if some
body don't help me | will stay here
three months a dead expense to the
county. What good will it do to keep
me here three months and you peo-
pie paying my board? ?"
A prisoner offering to contract with
the county and work while in jail III
order to make money with which to
pay his fine is unique and something
heretofore unheard of. Whether his
proposition will be entertained by the
authorities will not be known until
the commissioners hold their next
meeting.
Upon payment of SIS Harper can
be released on probation.
