Especial to The Palladium)

NEWCASTLE, March 15-Predict-
ing a favorable prospect for the estab-
lishment of cooperative live stock
commission firm in the Indianapolis
yards. J. H. Settle. of Bluffton, ex-
planned the proposition before a group
of about so farmers, representing six
counties of the Sixth district, at a
meeting held in Newcastle Wednesday
morning.
The directors of the farm bureaus
of these counties were to make known
their decision late Wednesday after

Results of similar firms in other
parts of the country show that the CO
operative firms can handle live stock
for less than one-half the cost charged
by the old-style companies, Mr.. Settle
said
The experience of a st. Paul firm
was cited. This firm averaged a
charge of S705 per car since it was
established eight months before, and
in that town a charge of $22 per car
was made by other firms.

SUNDAY GOLF MOOT
QUESTION Since GAME
YOUTHFUL, is REPORT
6Rv Associated Press)

& CHICAGO, March 15-That Sunday
golf has been moot question since
the game was youthful is shown by the
researches of a student of the games
history, and golf has been played in
its present form probably longer than
any other competitive sport.
Many seedlings by preachers, pub
lie concentrations by magistrates and
even fines by judges have been I'M
covered from the lore of Scotland. but
also an antique writer of the native
heath of golf has recorded that no
less strict a teacher than John Knox
was not opposed to golf during the
afternoon of the Sabbath. The Golf
book of East Lothian contains the fol-
lowing about Sunday golf in a country
where golf is not now played on the
Lords day:
Our greatest reformer John Knox,
who was an East Lothian man and a
golfer, did not believe in a Sunday
observance that was wholly made up
of religious exercises. Tradition has
il that he was seen more than once
golfing on Leith links on Sunday
afternoon. Certainly his idea and the
idea of our early reformers was that
the early part should be given to wor-
ship in the house of God, and that
after divine service all were free to
indulge in bodily recreation.
On the other hand also back in the
sixteenth century there was entered
in the records of the Kirk of Tyning-
hame that certain members were
"rebukit for playing gowff on the sab
bottle and they promeisit not to use
any pastyme on We sabbothe, both
before noone and efternoone, as they
had done except that day-qrin if they
faillit againe they were qtent to be
censurit with all rigour to the utter
most"

APPLE
INDUSTRY AT PEAK,
SAYS j. s. CENSUS

HARRISBURG, Pa, March 15.-The
apple industry in the state of Wash
ington has reached its peak and the
United States census of 1880 will place
it below Pennsylvania, New York and
Virginia. in the opinion of S. W.
Fletcher of the agricultural extension
department, Pennsylvania State col
lege The western industry he de-
clares, is more speculative than that
of this section and to that cause he
attributes it's fall in comparison with
the more conservative eastern states.
Citing the 1920 census report, Mr..
Fletcher explains that the state of
Washington has advanced to second
place in number of threes and in 1921
to first place in production. In 1910
the state, he said, had 4,862,702 trees
Of bearing age and in 1920 only 1885,
500. Pennsylvania, Maryland, Virginia
and West Virginia he explained have
continued to plant in a conservative
manner and from 1859, 1856 young trees
in 1910 they only dropped to 1861
913 in 1920 The present rank in the
number of bearing trees he said fol-
lows:
New York 9,636,69S; Washington
7,964,167; Virginia 7,3S5,277 Pennsyl-
vania, 6,9S1,128 In the number of
trees not yet of bearing age the rank
is: New York 2,932,2S1; Virginia
1857, 007; Pennsylvania 2,603,516.
Washington he asserted is not in the
first II and in another decade either
Virginia or Pennsylvania will wrest
the leadership from New York.

GENEVA, March 15.-Winter in the
Swiss Alps has been so severe that
scores of wild boars, wolves and other
animals have been driven to the towns
and lowlarids in search of food The
authorities are offering bounties for
their death or capture.
Recently several thousand persons
at a football match at Besancon, near
the western frontier. were thrown into
a panic by the sudden appearance on
the field of huge tusked boar. Goad-
ed by hunger, the animal charged the
players and bowled several of them
over. 1t then turned its attention to
the football. apparently mistaking 1t
for something edible.
The boar ran wildly about the field,
making finally for the spectators, who
took to their heels. A gendarme
rushed upon the field and ended the
animals escapade with revolver
shot.
The boar which weighed 120 pounds.
was later served to the players and
their guests at banquet in the town
hall. the referee meanwhile having de-
clared the game draw.
