These statistics are based on the &C

that not all farmers were asked about
their automobiles, trucks, and tractors

Hudson and Rockville Interested in
Lining.

TO prove that these two COMMUNE
ties are interested in lining their land
to produce better clover was fully
demonstrated last Tuesday and
ednesday nights when about IS men
from each respective community came
out to an illustrated talk and NOV
ing picture given by P F. Schowen-
gcrdt, Assistant Extension Profess
sor i'll Soils, College Of Agriculture,
Columbia, Mo.
A demonstration was given at
Rockville, showing how the soil was
tested for acidity. Much interest and
enthusiasm was shown at these meet
ings and several men agreed to use
more lime, leaving check plots for
demonstrations, to add to the several
demon stration fields that are good
proofs now that lime will help make
clover grow where it didn't grow be-
fore.
There are local and community
lime pulverizers in and near these
communities and the owners are more
than pleased with their work.
One OF the best demonstrations rh.:
County Agent and Mr.. Schowengeedt
have seen in the county is in field
belonging to B. Wix, at Pleasant Gap
where he lined part OF the field and
left part unlimed. The whole field
good stand OF clover where he lined
and none where he didn't lime. Does
anyone need better proof:
The county agent will be glad to
supply bulletins and help to anyone
desiring it.

FIFTY YEARS AGO

A young man who practiced medicine
in Pennsylvania became famous and
was called in consultation in many
towns and cities because of his sue
cess in the treatment OF disease. This
was DR.. Pierce. who finally made up
his mind to place some of his medi-
cines before the public, and moving to
Buffalo, N. Y, put up what he called
his "Favorite Prescription" and placed
it with the druggists in every state.
DIR. Pierce's Favorite Prescription has
long been recognized as a tonic for
diseases peculiar to womankind. After
suffering pain, feeling nervous, dizzy,
weak and dragged down by weak
nesses of her seX-a woman is quickly
restored to health by its use. Thou
sands OF women testify that DR.. Pierce's
Favorite Prescription has entirely
eradicated their distressing ailments.
More recently that wonderful dis
covery of DR.. Pierce's, called An-uric
(for kidneys and backache), has been
successfully used by many thousands
who write DR.. Pierce of the benefits
received - that their backache, rheu-
matism, and other symptoms of uric
acid deposits in joints or muscles have
been completely conquered by it's use.
Send l0c to DR.. Pierce, Buffalo, N. Y,
for trial pkg. of any OF his remedies, or
write for free medical advice.

FASHION NEWS NOTES

Furs bid fair to be more fashionable
than ever this winter and it is not nee
essarily the costly pelt that will claim
Dame Fashions favor, according to d
fashion authority in the New YORK
Tribune. Even the humblest Of ami
mails, not excepting the alley cats,
have been called upon to give up their
hides j., satisfy the demand.
Own. /, to the use of cheap furs, th3rc
are many dyed effects, One of the
chic things will be ito use fur thas
Exactly matches in color the fabric c.
the garment which it adorns; thus cat,
rabbit, hare and squirrel furs are be-
ing dyed in beige, gray and brown
tones to match materials. Caracul,
one of the more expensive furs, is also
being dyed in these fabric tones.
In addition to these smart, so-callcd
inexpensive furs, which are frankly
what they are, there are many imita-
tions of mink, chinchilla, seal and
beaver. There are the japanese mink,
Columbian mink and marmot, all Of
which approach real mink in appear
ance. There are golinsky and the
blended marten, which initiate ISABEL,
There are chinchilla rat, wiscatch, the
hybrid animal from Bolivia; the Aus

rare chinchilla of the Andes.

Talks Literally.

/ sac. tDs United Prcss.) 't'.
Washington, Nov. T. Woodrow
Wilson, now thesilent, solitary figure
of S street, but for the eight years
previous to 1920 a stormy petrol in
American politics, believes the Demo,
Gratis may gain control of the House
in today's election
He is absolutely confident that at
least the present large Republican
majority in the House will be virtu~
ally wiped out and that the G. o. P's
strength in the streets will be re-
duced.
The former President expressed
his views to a prominenet Democratic
leader who conferred with him few
days ago.
He believes President Harding may
be faced with the same situation dur
ing the next two years that confront
ed the Wilson administration dur
ing the period from 1919 to 1921,
when the Republicans gained control
of Congress-, and thwarted most OF
his moves. If the Republicans do re-
tain a small majority in the House,
he foresees tt., possibility of enough
progressive" Republicans combining
with the Democrats in the next Con
greSs to male things hot for the reg
ular party organization
Wilson's confidence that the Dem,
ocrats will make large gains today
also is reflected in messages he has
sent to Democratic organizations
throughout the country which have
sent him kilograms and letters praiS>
ing the principles for which he stood
In these replies, the eX-president has
referred repeatedly to "triumphs"
and victories" in the near future"
The war president, who sacrificed
his health in fight for the League of
Nations and the Versailles Treaty, ~
still said to be confident that his
stand on international relations will
be vindicated ain the long rum" and
the sting of the overwhelming defeat
of the Democratic party in 1920
wiped out.
Close friends of Wilson say that
Democratic victory today would
hearten him greatly in his long fight
to recover his health It is said tina:
the tremendous ovation the broken
down war leader received here on
Armistice Day last Year was a great
stimulant to his health and that the
messages of tribute he has received
during the last year seem to have
their reaction in improved health.
Wilson is now in better general
health than at any time since his
breakdow. He probably ever will re-
gain his health completely, and is
still far from that goal. But there
seems to be more color in his face,
he appears cheerful, takes his daily
automobile rides, visits the theater
once week, and spends much of his
time reading and is gradually devot-
ing more and more attention to the
large volume Of mail he receives.
Some comment from the eX-presi-
dent on the significance Of today'S
election may be forthcoming Satur.
day, Armistice Day, when MS admir-
ers will make their pilgrimage to
the house on S street" Last year,
several thousand people gathered at
his home to cheer Wilson, who hobb-
led out on his front porch and, lean
ing heavily on his cae, made short
speech.
