COUNTY should
Have POOR farm
Attorney Hodge Favors
Movement Which Was
Once Discussed BY
Commissioners.

Assistant County Attorney John L.
Hodge is one official who is heartily
in favor of the county owning and
maintaining good farm where the
poor and helpless may be taken care
of at the same time, the county own.
ing a piece of paying property under
efficient management.
At present there are several
charges maintained by poor and
insane fund. but the assistant county
attorney says this is very unsatis.
factory manner in which to admins.
ter to the needs Of those who are no
longer able to take care of themselves
and he believes it would be not only
saving of county funds, but a good
investment as well for the county TO
maintain good farm for this pur-
pose.
Carter county at one time owned O
farm north of the city, but for some
reason it was sold, and is known at
present as the Primrose Dairy farm.
For some time old and infirm people
NSit htpl tflcit, Dut tut COiniillsSlOH-
ers thought it too expensive to main.
tain large farm for the few people
on their bounty list at that time so
It was disposed of.
Mr.. Hodge is of the opinion that a
good farm under efficient manage
ment will pay for the upkeep of every
county charge it now has to dis
burse money for, and pay a profit as
well. This" he says, "can never be
done if the commissioners installed
one'crop farmer, especially a cot
ton farmer, and expected him to make
good. A good farm with dairy cat
tie, hogs. poultry and diversified crops
would go a long way toward solving
the poor peoples problem in Garter
county in my estimation.
Some time ago the matter was
discussed by the commissioners, but
nothing was developed. 1t may be re
vived, however, if interest enough is
manifested by the taxpayers TO urge
| the commissioners to action"

Thousands Have Kidney
Trouble and Never
Suspect It
Applicants for Insurance Often
Rejected.

Judging from reports from drug
gists who are constantly in direct
touch with the public, there is one
preparation tnat has been very sue
cessful in overcoming these condi-
tions. The mild and healing influ-
ence of DR.. Kilmer's Swamp-Root is
soon realized. 1t stands the highest
for its remarkable record of success.
An examining physician for ones OF
the prominent Life Insurance Com
panies, in an interview Of the sub
ject, made the astonishing statement
that one reason why so many appli-
cants for insurance are rejected Is be-
cause kidney trouble is so common
to the American people, and the
large majority of those whose appli-
cations are declined do not even sus-

RATIFICATION OF
Irish HPEACEPACT
| MAY come FRIDAY
Dali Started Work With a
Sharp Debate on Issue
This Morning; Five
Councils Favor.

DUBLIN,-The Dali Earean lost
no time after reconvening today, fol.
lowing its holiday recess, in plung
ing again into sharp debate on the
Anglo.Irish treaty. 1t had before it
once more an order of the day calling
for consideration of both Arthur
Griffith's ratification meeting and
Eamonn de Valeras alternative pro-
posais
It was not generally thought the
debate. would run many days longer,
many members anticipating vote
by Thursday night or Friday.
=, A review of the attitude taken by
the Irish people at large would seem
to indicate overwhelming sentiment
in favor of ratification of the COM
pact Since announcement was made
that the treaty had been signed in
London, 101 public bodies have adopt
ed resolutions in regard TO the treaty
and in many cases, have demanded
that their representatives in the Dali
Eireann vote for it,
Five more councils - Limerick,
North Tipperary, Tyrone, Louth and
Wexford yesterday added their
voices TO the chorus approving the
treaty. The. unanimity Of the farm
ers on the question is a notable fea'
ture Of the demand for ratification.
They have held scores of meetings
throughout the country and, without
exception, have affirmed their support
of the pact
The peace agreement has been un.
der consideration by the Dali since
December IA. and it was generally
belieyed here today that the present
session would not be protracted.

"SLACKER" HEN
MUST GO FROM
TULSA COUNTY

TULSA, Okla.-How profitable it
is to get rid of Stacker hens is dem
onstrated forcibly in report by
Kathryn Z. jackson, home demon
stration agent for Tulsa county, on
the case of Mrs. T. S. Gray, of Ca.
toosa.
Because the Grays landlord refus-
ed to build larger poultry houses,
Mrs Gray was forced to Gull her
flocks. Miss jackson says. She Gull.
ed SO hens out of flock Of so. but
during the month succeeding the
culling, she got 900 eggs in place
of 400 laid by the flock the month
before. During the four months sue
ceeding the culling, Mrs. Gray made
5000 on her poultry. Crowded con-
diton Of the flock had been partly
responsible for the laggard work OF
her hens.

The HNDnore schools are fast forg-

recognition of their work from men
of prominence. This fact can be sub

ceived by c. w. Richards, city super

The first is from. ]. w. Searson,
professor of English. University of
Nebraska. Professor Searson was one
OF the judges of the Better Cities

In a letter from the state high
school inspector, Z. f. Tourtellotte
to Superintendent Richards, he wrote
as follows:

he was appointed county commission

The fight for the place is a three
