Floydada Seeking
Shorter Route to
Railroad Points

Floydada, Texas, March Be
cause Floydada Is vitality Interested
in getting a shorter and more direct
route 10 Fort Worth, there Is BEING
considered a plan for running an au-
tomobile service line from Quanah,
a distance Of 10 miles, by way OF
Matador and paducah, making the
trip each way daily. C. {. Wright
Of Floydada Is making plans to in
stall this service, which will run on
a schedule, leaving Floydada at 3
D. m. and arriving In Quanah at Z
y. m, and leaving Quanah upon the
arrival Of the Fort Worth a Denver
train in the morning, arriving in
Floydada about noon.
Il is declared such line would
enable people in Floydada to make
the trip TO Fort Worth in fourteen
hours. whereas the best time that
the trip can be made now is some
thing like twenty-five hours. An
average Of one to two business men
90 10 Fort Worth daily, and many
from intermediate points.
Attention is called 10 The facts by
its proponents that this line would
in a measure indicate the POSSIBLE
ties of a Fort Worth to Plains rail
road, and is put on only to serNe
the present emergency. With an
automobile line placing Floydada
within thirteen or fourteen hours Of
Fort Worth, only one Of the advan-
tages Of n railroad connecting the
same territory is suggested.

E. A. Miller, Sweet Potato Specialist
ofA.&M. College, Writes Of the Diseases
And Curative Steps Peculiar to Them

There are some diseases Of sweet
potatoes which are doing consider
able damage to the potatoes IN the
field and while in the storage houses
The worst Of these is the black rot
which is being scattered over the
State by infected slips and unless.
potatoes are carefully selected and
created, Il will become worse from
year to year. Black rot Is usually
carried from the seed bed to the
field by infected slips. From the
field It Is brought to the storage
houses, where It may spread and
from there II is taken back to the
seed bed unless the potatoes are Sc
lected and created.
For these reasons all growers of
slips whether for home use or for
commercial purposes, are urged TO
use the following method in order
TO grow good healthy slips.
Before bedding, be sure to care
fully select the seed potatoes and
discard all that show any black
spots or other signs Of diseases.
Then dip all Of the sound potatoes
for ten minutes in a solution con-
tanning one ounce Of bichloride of
mercury corrosive sublimate) 70
eight gallons of water. This solu'
ton will kill the disease germs or
the surface of the potatoes, but
cannot reach those which have al.
ready gone through the skin anc
hence il is very important to select
the potatoes carefully before beinl
dipped.
The dipping can be easily done II
shallow vat or in barrels or hall
barrels. Wooden vessels should b'
used as the bichloride of mercury
is corrosive to metal. This solution
is poisonous and should not be left
where livestock or children can have
access to IL.
A handy way to do this dipping II
TO place the potatoes in bushel bas
kets and then immerse them in tins
solution for ten minutes. They arr
then ready to be placed directly II
the seed bed, after the solution hai
drained off. While they are beini
bedded another lot can be dipped
This method is very simple and eN
tremely important to keep dow
serious diseases.

Early to Marry
By Associated Pressl

Washington, Feb. 16.-Sixteen
hundred boys and 1884 girls, Is
years of age, in the United States
were listed as married in 1920, the
census bureau announced today in a
statement presenting special anal
ysis of marital statistics. Eighty
two boys and 499 girls of the same
age wede recorded as widowed or
divorced.
The analysis revealed distinct in
crease during recent years or since
the 1910 census in the percentage of
married persons for each year of
age from Is to "a, especially among
the younger members of this group.
The age group from S5 to "a, inclu-
sive, also showed an increase in the
ratio of married persons in the dec
ade, although less pronounced, espe-
cially among the women, while the
proportion for persons As years of
age and older showed a decrease.
In 1920, the figures show, 1922
boys of 16 years, of three-tenths of
/ per cent of the total of that age,

cent in 1910, were married, while

bered 1869, or eight-tenths of 1 per
cent of the total of that age COM
pared with half thta proportion ten

The number of married girls 16
years of age increased from 34,829,
or 81 per cent of the total female
population at that age in 1910, to
Al ,626, or AZ per cent of the corre-
spending total in 1920.

Actions of Burch
Raises a Question
in Mattie's Case

Los Angeles, Cal, Feb. 16.-A
technical legal argument was to
open today's session of the trial of
Madalynne Obenchain, charged with
the murder of J. Belton Kennedy,
young broker.
Defense attorneys raised the point
late yesterday, contending the acts
of Arthur Burch, co-defendant, sub
sequent to the commission of the
murder, could not be admitted
against the woman.
This developed when the state
sought ointroduce through Thomas
Haley, proprietor of downtown ho-
tel, testimony as to Burch's alleged
hurried departure the morning fol-
lowing the Staying.
Haley, at Burch's recent trial,
which ended in a disagreement of
the jury, testified Burch left the ho-
tel, leaving in his room newspapers
accounts of the murder
and folded on the pages bearing the
last part of these articles.

Bank of England
Reduces Discount
to Pre-War Level
By Associated Press)

London, Feb. 16.-The Bank Of
England today reduced its rate of
discount to four and one-half per
cent.
The discount rate of the Bank of
England has been five per cent since
November 3, aslt, when it was re-
duced from the five and one-half per
cent rate established, on the preced,
ing July 21. Todays action was fore,
cast in London dispatch last night
in which it was pointed out that the
treasury had suspended temporarily
its issue Of five per cent treasury
bonds.
The highest rate was reached in
August, 1914, after the outbreak of
the world war, when it was set at
10 per cent, which had only been
equaled on two previous occasions,
those of the panics of 1857 and 1866.
Since then the rate has fluceuated,
but the figures today are the lowest
since the outbreak of the war.

Mail Order House
Only One Having
Ear of Officials
Try Aaanninfad RraasN

Chicago, Feb. 16-H. E. Hart, of
Long Prairie, Mimi, speaking before
the interstate merchants council
here today, said that there seemed to
be only one class of merchandise dis
tr.butors that have had "a good
standing with either the democratic
or republican administration. and
those are the mail order houses" He
charged that Attorney General
Daugherty is ignorant of true condi-
tions and is inspired by mail order
houses.
What would it be worth to the
mail order interests to have the pub
lie educated by the attorney generals
and the radical newspapers to believe
that every time they made a pur-
chase at retail store they were be-
ing held up and robbed? 1t would
mean millions of extra trade for the
mail order concerns" Mr.. Hart said.
"If you are going to be successful
in 1922 you must meet this vicious
propaganda, you must answer the
question in your advertising to your
own community. You stand convict
ed without a trial by one of our ma
t:onal officials"
