That the horse has future even In
London was the main theme of a
speech by Lord Lonsdale at dinner
Of the London Van Horse Parade So
ciety. He said that, while automobiles
and other forms Of traction were TAX
ing the place Of the horse. there were
some directions in which the horse
would remain supreme. He felt that
large areas like the Canadian prairies
and the African plains would come en-
tirely under machinery and machine
blowing, but machines could not be
manipulated in the small fields Of
England with success. In London a
great amount Of work could only be
done by horses, and he trusted that
the society would try to design some
form of horseshoe which would assist
the animals to draw their loads, In
stead Of retarding them, when the
roads were slippery.

DISCOVER NEW FUEL SOURCE

In an effort to solve the eyer-recur-
ring fuel problem. two Tacoma in
ventors have turned their attention to
perfecting a wooden coal which In
proving quite practical and is gener-
ally used throughout the state Of
Washington. says the Cleveland Plain
dealer. Waste products Of the lumber
mills form the basis for the briQuets
which the pair have evolved Bark,
sawdust and mill refuse. listed as an
economic waste In the past, aretbeing
utilized. Tests prove that the briquets
possess per cent carbon, 2 per cent
volatile and per cent ash. In addi-
tion, they are smokeless Rated by the
British thermal unit test, the briQuets
as manufactured by the two rank with
the best anthracite coal. Plants for
the production Of the bricks are now
being planned in the various districts,
and a scheme is being worked out to
reduce the cost of manufacture. At
the present time, the actual cost OF
preparing the waste is SO ton. 1t Is
believed that by Installing larger and
heavier machinery and speeding up
the production, this cost can be re-
duced materially.

LondOn.-With but few excep-

favorable reception to the British

former Premier David Lloyd George,

The Westminster Gazette raised a
dissenting voice, saying:
"The Curzon note was even more

This paper pointed out that the com
munication failed to support Secre-

impartial, international committee to
fix the amount of reparations that Ger

The Daily Express said the British

From San Francisco to the Orient is

pies ticket; Ray Lambert, Phil

pies ticket were assured Of strong

organization equally as strong as that
already formed by the men and to
carry heavy woman vote for the
entire ticket.

his income, excluding dividends from
railroads and other enterprises, is
about Si2,000,O00 a year.
Ford himself doesn't know what his
income is. He says he can't tell with
in S15,OOO,0O0 what he has in the
bank. Last year he admitted he paid
$76,000000 income. tax, but this in
