ADVENTURE TRAILS
BIazed for You by Lewis Allen Browne

"Tf we could only have an aquarium
here" said Ted. IT could make a fine
collection
He was examining a tiny baby turtle
with a green back all lined off in octa-
gonal designs with black and brilliant
yellow stripes.
"An right. let's go!" aid his cousin
Ned. You start your collection and
I'll start the aquarium"
Ted laughed. Who's going to both
er to bring a big glass tank out here
in camp? And they won't live long
in tin ones"
This one is going TO be made of
sand. mud. water and rocks declared
Ned.

them. The pools dry up or overflow
and they won't last any time
Bet you just walled off some little
pool beside a pond or stream ex

"of course" Ted answered him
how Else
First, find a little stream about as
wide as your foot. making sure IL
comes from a spring and won't dry up,
and III do the rest" Ned assured
him. THE trouble is. most folks think
any old puddle will do"
Ted began to search and near camp
was a tiny streamlet 50 small one
would scarcely notice it. 1t ran down
to the lake and came from a springfield
marsh.
Take a tin pail and start your old
collection OF ~alligators Inc whales and
such things. and I'll make the aqua.
RUM" Ned told him.
NO, I'd much rather learn how YOU
do It and then both of us can have
the fun of collecting-and IL there's
anything to learn but of doors 1 don't
want to miss it"
They started out with shovel, axe
and other tools and the first thing
Ned did was TO mark off his aquarium
as in Figure l. The little stream
runs from Y to Xxx and the dotted

FORTY FULL GALLONS ,

Deputies Prince and Ferguson
made a descent upon Squire Davis,
of the Ware Shoals section today,
and captured forty gallons of corn
liquor, the liquor being contained in
four ten gallon kegs. A thirsty look,
ing crowd was on the court house
square as the gallons were carried
into the Sheriff's office and depos-
tied for safe keeping.
Squire Davis was brought along
for good measure. He says he is an
innocent by-stander, that the liquor
does not belong to him and that he
does not ool with liquor, that same
parties left it with him he supposes
for safe-keeping.
Davis is an intelligent looking mu-
latto of about so years of age.

The McAdams Farm between Lev

County owned by James and Will
liam McAdams has field of cotton
planted last May on a three year old
clover sod turned under green in the
spring on which they will make over
3-4 of bale to the acre under boil
weevil conditions and without poison.
They believe the yield would have
been a bale and a half to the acre
without the weevil. About 200 lbs.
of acid to the acre-but no mixed
fertilizer was used.
For corn they planted May 18th,
a three year old clover sod field turn
ed under green in the spring, and
on this was used 200 pounds of acid
but no mixed fertilizer. This will
make from 80 to 40 bushels of corn

members Of the Allen clan that on
Marsh IA. 1922, shot up the court
house at Hillsville, were en- route to
their mountain homes tonight ere
formed young men and worthy of a
new trial in life" The ten years they
spent in the Virginia penitentiary
fulfilled the purpose Of the law, de-
clared Gov. E. Lee Trickle today in
granting them conditional pardons
and they are capable and will in the
future lead the law abiding lives.
Sidna Allen and Wesley Edwards,
two other members of the clan serv-
ed 35 and 27 years Imprisonment
respectively for their part in the af-
fair which the presiding judge
Thornon L. Massie, Commonwealth
Attorney w. N. Augustus Foster, q
Juror, and Miss Betty Ayers, q spec
ator were killed and Dexter Goad,
cort cleark, and several jurymen
were wounded, were denied Glenn

short a time for their punishment. !"
The tow other members Of the clan

WILL NOT FILL
VACANCIES NOW
NO RECESS APPOINTMENTS TO
FEDERAL RESERVE.-WHEN
CONGRESS RECONVENES w. P
G. HARDING AGAIN TO BE
NAMED. ...

Washington, Oct. S.-Andrew W..
Mellon secretary Of the treasury, an
nounced to newspaper men today
that the president will not fill vacan-
cies existing on the federal reserve
board until the beginning of the ex-
traordinary session of congress.
1t is indicated that the president
at this time will nominate w. P. G..
Harding of Birmingham to succeed
himself. 1t is believed THAT deter
nlination to make no recess appoint
ment was a concession 30 certain Re-
publican members of the senate ag-
raian bloc, who had expressed fear
that the reappointment of Mr.. Hard
ing would have effect on the farmer
vote in the West just prior to the
congressional elections. H.,
1t is believed that the other vacan-
cy on the board will be filled by the
appointment of j. r. Howard Of To-
wa, president Of the American Farm
Bureau federation. .s.-, .~,
1t is said that the president is de-
termined not to permit politce to
play a part in filling the board vacan
cies. He will not be moved by GER
tain politicians who have talked ag-
ainst Harding for political effect.
And he will mot be moved by those
Republicans who refer to Governor
Harding as a Southerner and De-
mocrat and ask that deserving"
Republican be given the vacant place
on the board. Further, it is said
that the president is aware that the
Democratic party and the South is
entitled to representation on the
board, fact overlooked by some
Southern politicians, it appears.
The most influential business men
of the country have requested the
president to rename Governor Hard
ing, and Republican newspapers are
insistent that the president refuse
to permit politicians to make foot
ball of the greatest banking system
in the world. While politicians have
declared the defation policy Of the
Wilson administration was injurious
to farmers, the business men of the
country compliment the Wilson ad-
ministration for having taken the on
ly course which could have saved
the financial world. .....

NO NOMAN|PULAT|ON
IN GRAIN MARKET
STOCK BROKER HAS NOT SEEN
THESE H. LIVERMORE AP-
PEARS BEFORE THE FEDERAL
TRADE COMMISSION INVES-
eating SPECULATION.

New York, Oct. Jesse H. Liv-
ermore, stock and grain market op-
orator, appearing as a witness be-
fore the federal trade commission in
vestigating speculation in the grain
market declared today that he had
never known of any manipulation"
in the commodity market and stated
that he did not think the operations
of any individuals Influenced mar
ket prices of commodities.
He declared that the grain market
was an institution beneficial both to
the farmer and to the consumers,
stating that market for future was
necessary in order to allow the far
mers to dispose Of their, products.
But for the market, he stated, three
or four large elevator corporations
would control grain prices at their
will.
Mr.. Livermore defined a specula-
tive investor as a man who "sizes
up'' future sets of conditions and
who trades on the basis of his con-
clusions. He declared that both spec
ulator and gambler, who took short
flying chances, were stabilizers of the
market. ..
81 don't know of any manipula-
ton in the commodity markets, che
declared. 81 do not think there are
any attempts at manipulation. Man.
ipulation is only newspaper crea-
tion, because it is an easy explana-
tion of market movements and max
es good copy. Fluctuation in prices
is caused purely by supply and de-
mand. There may beg manipulation
in the stock market 4but never in
the rain or wheat markets. The last
time I heard of an attempt was
eight or nine years ago in the cot
ton market. Socalled combinations
like the Palm Beach group or the
Waldorf Astoria group are mere
newspaper myths. Personally, play
a lone hand

AS to the league Of nations the
two Republican senator's differed,
somewhat from their Democratic col-5

"The league is not operated today

DEPARTMENT, r OF JUSTICE
HANDS DOWN INTERPRETA-

MENDMENT AN ENFORCE
MENT ACT.

Washington, Oct. 7.-All vessels
American and foreign owned, are
prohibited from having liquor on
board in American territorial waters
under an Interpretation of the prohi-
bition amendment and the enforce
ment act handed down today by the
department of justice. Moreover, the
transportation or sale of intoxicants
on American craft, wherever operat-
ed, was held to be inhibited. ..
American territorial waters were
construed to include those not only
within the three mile limit of ccnti-
mental United States, but also those
within the same limit of the Philip
pines, the Hawaiian Islands, Puerto
Rico, the Virgin Islands and Alaska.
The law would not apply in the Pan
anna Canal Zone as that zone is spe-
cifically exempted by the statute it.
self. ........
So far as American ships are con-
cerned, the sale or transportation of
liquor will cease at once, or as soon
as those vessels reach their home
ports, In the case of foreign ships,
the decision will become operative as
soon as the necessary regulations can
be prepared and promulgated by the
treasury department. .s....
Court action looking to final de-
termination of the application Of
American dry laws to foreign ships
entering American ports was fore
seen by both Attorney General
Daugherty and Chairman Lasker of
the shipping board. Mr.. Daugherty
said he had already been advised that
case was about to be filed which
would bring the issue to the supreme
court.
Chairman Lasker was of the opin-
ion that the first move of foreign
lines would be to seek an injunction
restraining the government from
enforcing the law. He said it was
reasonable to suppose that the
courts would grant such an injunc-
ton with a result that foreign ships
would continue to arrive with Ii
quor on board until there was fin
al decision by the highest court. The
attorney general said his department
would cooperate in every effort to
expedite ruling by the supreme
court. .' D..
