outlook of getting paying results on

prices now prevailing for seed pota-

seed districts available is not gener-

even to many local people, but the
work that is being done by the local
association and pioneers in this prom
ising movement is going to be fruit
full. For instance P. E. Harrington,
residing seven miles south of Craig
mont, last year raised 10 acres of seed
potatoes which went 100 bushels to
the acre. These passed the seed re-
quirements, and on his Bliss Triumph
variety he took first prize at the In
land Empire show in Spokane last
fall. Harris Bros. of the same neigh
borhood had in large acreage and
on their Melted Gems got the big
score of s35 at the Spokane show.

BAD YEAR IN CHINA IS BLAMED ON LINK
"Year Of The Pig" Is Additionally
 UnfavOrable

SHANGHAI, Nov. 6.-(By Associated Press.)--Business conditions in China are not so good and Chinese mer- blame politics or the jlnx of the pres- ent year.
 The Chinese calendar is divided into cycles of 60 years. According to their reckoning, there have been TT of these cycles since time began, dating from 2697 B. c. during the reign of Huang ri. The cycles are divided into i2 sections Of five years each and each section is known by some special des- ignation such as the years of the sheep, tho years of the cock, the years of the monkey, the story the pig, etc.
 This happens to be the last or fifth year of the pig. The years of the pig are always bad and the last year of the pig is especially bad. In the final year of the pig the last of the Celes- tial stems meets the last of the ter restial branches, to use the terms of the sages.
 Nothing could happen that would surprise the average Chinese in this year. Bad as it was the Japanese earthquake did not disturb the Chinese calm. Influenced by the old tradition Chinese merchants are buy ing only what they need to keep go- ing. One Chinese banker pointed out that exports had virtually ceased and imports of foodstuffs greatly in creased. Customs revenues. records show, decreased 100000 taels during the first half of 1923. No improve ment is shown in the spinning indus try and even the nah jong business has fallen off.
 On the whole the people are glum and resigned.

FEARS PLOT TO
 KILL KLANSMEN
(ContiYued From Page One)

(COntinued From Page One) the home Of Simmons and found him away, Fox broke into an angry tirade against Evans, Brown Haywood, N. J. Mahoney and other powerful members of his own clique.
 o O O
 Seemed Disgusted.
 According to Frei B. Johnston, who talked to Fox at the Simmons home, Fox, who pointed a revolver at him in an undecided sort of way, seemed disgusted with his role in klan mat ters and announced that he was re- turning to his home in Dallas.
 His conversation had the same trend during his visit at Coburn's office just before the shooting.
 The klan IS in the midst of litiga- ton precipitated by the rival fac tions. Simmons is seeking to prevent Evans by injunction from organizing feminine Ku Klux Klan auxiliary similar to his own Kamelia. Coburn had revealed a number of klan secrets in the opening legal battles, secrets which were hastily withdrawn from public gaze with the approval of both sections.
 At FoX's trial. which is expected to be hurried so as to begin next week it now seems likely that many of these secrets will be irresistibly drawn to the surface. Tuesday night they would aid the police to ascer- tain just what sort of conspiracy was behind Foxs ambiguous conversation, his visit to Simmons residence, and the shooting which climaXed his two days absence from his office.

Vote Down Old Age Pension.

l COLUMBUS, to-, Nov. 6.-Early re- turns from today's statewide cleo
 tion tonight showed the vote from 621 of the states S,247 precincts unfavor- 1 able to the adoption of an old age pension system in Ohio. The vote 1 from these precincts was: Yes, 1Si531 No, 49,900.
 | Two constitutional amendments providing for revision of the work mems compensation and for the ad- vertisement in newspapers, instead of
 mailing to voters of summaries of initiated proposals and those sub mitted tC referendum, were also re- ceiving an unfavorable vote on the basis of these returns. A third amend ment providing for the elimination of the words white mails" from the qualifications of voters, had re- ceived a majority of approximately 1000 votes on returns from the 621 precincts.
 The Ku Klux Klan, which had en- tered the mayoralty fights in some communities, apparently had won a victory in Youngstown, where Charles F. Scheible, indorsed by the klan. had two and one-half times as many votes as his five opponents on the early returns. and the board of cleo tions announced that he was prac- tically certain of election.

 Numerous mayoralty contests in New York showed little net change in political complexion. The possible change in the lineup of the state as- sembly did not appear sufficient to cause outcries of joy in either party If the elections showed anything they demonstrated that Tammany can still rebuke Heart in Manhattan and that Governor Smith isn't so popular that he can swing a big democratic majority into power at Albany.
 If the final Kentucky result bears out early indications Lf clean demo- cratic victory, it will probably be hailed as significant repqdiation of the administration in Washington The republican party sent some of its strongest campaigners into the state in an effort to preserve the republican garments donned by the state when it elected Ed Morrow to the governor ship, the office which Morrow is now relinquishing after making a strong effort for a republican successor.

Doctors have found by experience that no medicine for colds. coughs. sore throat and influenza can be de- pended upon for full effectiveness until the liver Is made thoroughly ac- tive. That is why the first step in the treatment is the nausealess calomel tablets called Calotabs. which are free from the sickeninx and weakening effects of the old style caiomel. Doctors also point out the fact that an active liver may 20 a long way towards preventing influ- cnza and colds and is one of the most important factors in enabling the pa tient to successfully withstand an at- tack and ward off pneumonia.
