A word to madden and con-
jure with--a word that is a
blasphemy, a sword, bomb. a scare
crow, boo-bool in the ears of the
illiterate and the sentimentalists.
In the early years of the last CEN
tury children used to be taught how
to behave by saying to them: Tom
Paine'll get you!" In certain books
of the time one of the saviors of the
Colonial army and the great enemy of
cant and camoufiage was represented
with horns and tail.
Then, again, little further back
there was q certain Benedict de Spi-
noza, a quiet, ascetic thinker of Am
sterdam, who was accommodated
from the Jewish church in that city
with the most formidable and heartless
anathema that has ever been pro-
nounced anywhere. This God-intoxi-
Gated man was called AN atheist and
a menace" This man. who lived in a
little furnished room, ground lenses
for a living and ate a bowl of oat-
meal with some bread and eggs three
times a day, was put down in the

AREA PLAN OF TUBERCULOSIS
ERADICATION ON INCREASE

The plan for eradicating tuberculo-
sis in cattle from entire areas. such
as counties, is daily growing in pop
ularity, according to reports coming
to the United States Department of
Agriculture. The idea has taken hold
in Michigan and is spreading rapidly.
Already five counties have been freed
of the plague, and reports from the
inspector in charge for the govern
ment show that the boards of super
visors have appropriated money and
made provision for cooperating with
state and federal forces. When one
country joins ranks for eradication
its action stimulates others to follow.
The prospect for ultimately Kidding
the country of the disease never
looked so promising as at present,
say those in charge.

FEDERAL AID ROADS
INCREASED 600 MILES

Nearly 600 miles nearer the goal
of completed system Of highways
for the United States is the report
of the Bureau of Public Roads of the
United States Department of Agricul-
ture for the month of July The final
goal, the construction Of a system
of approximately 10000 miles of
federal aid highway consisting of a
network of trunk line and secondary
roads reaching into practically every
county is still long way off, but we
are 5.392 miles near than at the be
ginning of the year. according to the
bureau.
Completed federal aid roads now
total 1929 miles with 1892 miles
under construction and approximate
ly so per cent complete. Including
projects not yet under construction,
federal aid roads in all stages now
total 40,33S miles.
slackening. of the greatly increased
rate of progress which began with
the season of 1921 as the states con-
tinue to pour in plans for new prof.
ects and place them under construc-
tion as rapidly as possible. Nearly
twelve and one-half million dollars
was obligated to new projects in June
and July, and in the week ending Au-
gust reports were received of the
letting of 6S new projects and an
nouncemeDts of 81 to be let.
At the present time the force of
the bureau is taxed to the limit with
the examination of new plans and
projects, inspection of roads under
construction mad the planning of the
fedearl aid highway system which is
being gotten into final shape.

MOVING PICTURES ITO SHOW
MANY TYPES OF HIGHWAYS

A series of One-reel motion picture
films illustrating modern practice in
the construction of the various types
of highways has been prepared under
the direction of the Bureau of Public
Roads and are now available for free
distribution by the motion picture
sYction of the United States Depart
ment of Agriculture
The films, consisting of one reel
each, are as follows: Modern con-
crete road construction, building BIZ
luminous roads, mixed asphalt pave
ments, brick from clay pavement,
granite block paving, high roads and
sky roads.
In addition there will be completed
in a short time Building Forest
Roads" and Around the West by
Forest Roads" A film on gravel
road construction is in course of pre-
praation.
These MINIS are intended for use in
engineering colleges, road meetings,
and other public gatherings. They
may be obtained upon application to
the department for use ON specific
dates without cost other than that
of paying for transportation both
ways. On account of the limited num-
ber of copies of each film it is best
to make reservations some time in
advance.

FARM WOMEN IMPROVE
HOME SEWING METHODS

Farm women IN many sections are
cooperating actively in clothing work
as carried on with the assistance OF
state and county extension workers.
In this work local representatives or
leaders, selected by the various com
Dlunities in a county, come together
at some convenient point for train
ing. Provided with the necessary
teaching help, these women repeat
to organized groups in their own
neighborhoods the instruction they
have received and gather up reports
on work done. The success of local
leadership is due not only to the
ability and devotion of local women,
but to the simple, practical basis to
which extension workers have reduc-
ed their teaching.
According to reports received by
the United States Department of Ag-
riculture the things that are receiv-

ing and use of dress forms; altera-
tion of patterns and making of fitted
to-measure foundation patterns; pro,
cess of clothing construction; remod-
cling; garment finishes; use of ma
chine attachments; clothing hygiene,
including the selection of shoes and
corsets; millinery, and selection OF
textile materials and ready-made
clothing for quality and design. AS
a result of the work, farm women
have been enabled to improve their
ability to select materials and to
remodel and make garments and
other articles of clothing at home.

CATTLE DIPPING RECORD
AGAIN BROKEN IN TEN

Texas broke it's own cattle dipping
record when in July 6.7S3,5O3 dip
pings in that state were recorded by
the bureau of animal husbandry, Un-
tied States Department of Agricul-
ture. The figure is more than 15O,-
900 greater than the dippings for
June, which, as recently announced,
broke al lrecords for progressive tick
eradication since the work began in
1906.
There are nearly 10000 watts in op-
Grafton, of which more than 200 were
built during July. The rapid progress
being made in eradicating ticks is
the result of thorough preparation
and the excellent spirit of co-opera-
tion among the state and county Of
ficials, cattle owners aud representa-
tives of the United States Depart
ment of Agriculture.

So far this year Studebaker has
built and sold more cars than dur
ing the entire year of 1921. And
1921, in spite of a general business
depression, was the biggest year in
Studebaker's 70 years history.
This steady volume of business, plus
the savings resulting from Stude-
bakers methods of complete manu-
facture, reduces manufacturing and
selling costs. And it is a Studebaker
policy of long standing to share
these savings with the customer.
Hence, the new low prces.
