Emerson Hough's Great Story of the
West Now Has Been Filmed and the
Motion Picture Preserves For All
Time a Vivid Tale of the Life of the
Pioneers.

Emerson Hough, who lived and la.
bored in San Antonio, wrote two great
stories of the West. One dealt with
the development of Texas and the
establishment of the great cattle trail
north from the Southwest to the Middle
and Northwest. The other dealt with
me great migration which carried
families from the eastern part of the
nation across the prairies and noun
tains to the Pacific coast and result
ed in the settlement of the western
half Of the continent.
Hough loved the West and the
Southwest. He roamed the plains, the
deserts and the mountains and studied
the history of the West until so thor
cughly saturated with the spirit of
the pioneers that he could no longer
restrain himself from putting into
words the struggle of the brave men
and women who dared fortune in an
unknown land. His stories of the Wes'
are true and his untimely death a
short time ago removed an author
who saw, rs Jew writer's did, the tire
mendous achievement of the pioneers.
In "The Covered Wagon" he tells
the story Of the historic days of 1913
and 1870. 1t is graphic in its deeds
of daring, courage, sacrifices, loves
adventures, tragedies and joys. Now
the motion picture camera has made
his story live and throb with a vivid
ness that the printed word could not
alone achieve.
A Romantic Event.
The Covered Wagon" recalls some
of the most romantic events in Amer
lean history, particularly the progress
ofthe prairie schooners from Missouri

pied. The length of contract in this
particular creamery covers a three
year period, with cancellation
privilege.
The value of cooperative
creamery to this county cannot be
estimated, but it would seem as
though such an organization would,
first, eliminate every housewives
making creamery of all homes
where dairying is now being carried
on; second, it would standardize
dairy products; third, eliminate the
excessive cost of present marketing
practices, such as a man and team
one day each week with not a too
valuable load; fourth, it would make
possible the keeping of more dairy
cows in this county, and we all
know that permanent agriculture is
based upon livestock; fifth, it would
make possible an advertising cam
paign bringing the consumers at
tention to the comparative value of
this county's dairy products as COM
pared to cocoanut oil, cleo, and
other butter substitutes; and, sixth,
it could eliminate the large amount
of money leaving this county each
year for ice-cream, cream and
creamery butter

When the children are out of
sight they often eat too many
sweets or rich foods. This
brings on constipation in many
cases.
Watch these symptoms: Con-
stipation, sour stomach,
cramps, eyes heavy and dull,
bad breath, restlessness, and
biliousness. These are COM
mon to both children and
grown-ups and call for prompt
use of a laxative.

The Laxative with Il Years Reputation
DR.. True's Elixir
FOR THE WHOLE FAMILY
The True Family Laxative

Mothers with their home wor-
ries are often irregular at
meals-have no appetite-are
often restless at night-are
tired and are troubled with dis
tressed stomachs--need a
prompt, pure herb laxative,
and such is DIR. True's Elixir,
the True Family Laxative.
The working man is apt to
neglect his health; may eat too
hurriedly and at irregular
hours. Often this puts the
bowels out of order--they fail
to function properly-causing
fretfulness, taking away the ap-
petite, slowing down the active
mind. To relieve these con-
ditions, have a bottle of
DR.. True's Elixir handy.
Use it as others have done
during the past 70 years.

COOPERATIVE CREAMERY,
(Farm Bureau NewS)

Results cannot be definitely decid-
ed at present, as the creamery ques-
ton has only been talked over at
Eastbrook, Amherst and North Blue
hill annual Farm Bureau planning
meetings.
The suggested plan submitted for
the consideration of the farmers has
been given with the idea that the
plan is only suggested, and that
criticisms are asked for. 1t is ex-
pected that those who do not like the
plan will become interested enough
to submit better one.
The location of the creamery
should be decided upon at the Or
ganization meeting. 1t would seem
that Washington Junction, Ellsworth
Falls or Ellsworth would be the
likely places, due to facilities avail
able for shipping. The capitaliza-
ton, also, would be matter to be
decided upon at the organization
meeting, but the committee agrees
that $4,000 must be in sight and
500 cows pledged before final steps
for organization can be made.
A patronage pledge blank has
been drawn up, and after explana-
tion of the plan at the annual COM
munity planning meetings, COM
mittee of one or more men has been
appointed to solicit patronage.
For every cow pledged, share Of
stock is bought by the owner of the
COW, at $40 per share. A minimum
payment of IS per share is allowed,
with note for payment Of balance,
If cash payment for stock is made,
per cent. discount is allowed. If
note is redeemed in less than six
months, 21a per cent. is allowed
After paying the minimum of SIS per
share, the balance Of shares will be
paid by percentage Of each cream
check (perhaps per cent? until
entire stock is paid up. For in
stance, if man signs up ten cows,
he does not have to dig out 5000 at
once, but will be allowed to sign up
his ten cows and ten shares of stock
for cash payment of $50.
Five hundred cows and one share
of stock for each cow means the ten
thousand dollars spoken of as neces-
sary to start, and also means that
the patrons will receive all there is
in the cream delivered.
1t was the thought of the commit
tee that cream to the summer trade
as long as possible, and then good
standard creamery butter produc-
Cion the balance of the year, would
bring the best returns.
The experience of California is
generally known in regard to CO.
been at the game about twelve years
and approximately 80 per cent. OF
all these organizations have failed,
but they have learned a great deal
in this time, and one of the facts
established by their years of ex-
perience is the necessity of a con-
tract binding the producer. This
has a stabilizing effect upon the or
ganization if rightly handled.
A long-term contract, favored by
such men as G. Harold Powell, has
a cancellation privilege whereby the
dissatisfied patron can withdraw
provided he makes up the expense
he has put the organization to in
order to care for his business. This
is only good sense, and prevents the
organization from becoming Grip

"SEE" WITH NOSES
Also Hear With Finger Tips
Through Substitution OF Senses.

Chicago, March 1O.-Substitution OF
one sense for another to the extent of
hearing with finger tips, and see
ing" with the nose, has proven prac-
ticable through tests made by Profes-
sors Robert II. Gauit, noted psycholo-
gist and criminologist of Northwest
ern University.
Announcement OF the results of
months of painstaking experiments,
through which students mastered the
power to "hear" with their fingers
and 'see" with their noses. was made
tonight by Professor Gault.
Two young men, entirely normal,
have now reached a stage where one,
speaking from a point three rooms
away, communicates with the other
through a speaking tube, the receiver
having his hand in a sound-proof box
at the mouth of the tube, Professor
Gaut stated.
Experiments in clearing" through
fingers were started by Professor
Gault after obtaining some success in
color PERCEPTION tests through the nose.
