DENIED BY DUVALL
Indianapolis Mayor Never
Promised Appointments for

INDIANAPOLIS. Ind. September

apolis. testifying today in his trial on
charges of violating the corrupt prac-
ticeS act denied that he ever had
promised William H. Armitage, local
politician. the privilege of naming Of
persons for city offices in exchange
for $4,000 and Armitage's support at
The polls.
Duvall said he had not discussed
the matter of appointments with
Armitage prior to the 1925 primary
the time the prosecution charged the
mayor with having made an agree
ment with Armitage. Duvall de
scribed Armitase as having sought
him rather than he having asked
ArmitaEe for his support.
Duvall said he had known Armitage
three years and that the first political
conversation he had with him occur
red just a few days before the 1925
primary. He said he met Armitage
at the latter's request in a hotel, and
at that time they discussed the po-
litical situation.

business asset to every COM
munity; and as a privilege to all
men who carried Government In
surance during the Service, the
Importance of this closing date
cannot be overestimated.
Its Importance is shown by the
fact that the President of the
United States has issued a Procla-
nation asking all spublic minded
people to call these facts to the
attention of the ex-service men.
The same action has been taken
by the Governor of the State of
Minnesota and by the Mayors of
Minneapolis and ST. Paul. The
local forces of the American Leg
ion and other service organize
lions have endorsed the policy,
and their officers are prepared
to give necessary information
to ex-service men who make in
quiry.
In addition to the $1,000
Smiths, there were $4,000 per-
sons by the name of Brown;
$4,000 Williams; 2S,05O Jones,
$4,000 Andersons; 1880 Walk
ers; $4,000 Millers and $4,000
Johnsons by various spelling, all
of whom, together with the other
hundred of thc-Gands ex-service
men are eligible for like bene-
fits.
Attention is $50 called to the
fact that this is. the cheapest and
best insurance available to ex-
disabled in the service and who,
therefore, would not be able to
take out life insurance through
commercial companies, are eligible
for this insurance. 1t is a pri-
vilege which is open at present
time, but which will soon close
and, therefore, there is urgent
need of present action.
Information can be secured at
the offices of the local service or

Crops have to be marketed. Buy
ers take only a small percent of
all the crops grown on American
farms by the bushel, bale, ton or
wagon load, according to the Blue
Valley Creamery Institute. Most
of the crops are fed to animals.
The statistics are startling. Few
people realize, for example, that
chickens alone consume more
wheat than is exported.
The yearly lay of a four pound
hen represents 20 pounds of feed.
A pound of butter is merely from
eight to Is pounds of grain, hay,
grasses, canned compliant and
beets, converted into a concen-
trated, nutritious food substance
readily eaten and easily digested
by humans. Every "a hours the
cows of the United States re-
quire about 500, 600, 900 pounds of
feed to maintain themselves and
supply the milk and milk products
demanded by American house
wives. y
This gigantic amount of feed
crops is marketed each day by
farmers who sell them, so to speak,
to the 25, 900, 900 cows in Unit
ed States used to produce milk.
But, unfortunately for farmers,
only about "a to 33 per cent is
sold at a fair profit because only
one out of every three to four
cows produces enough milk to
make a real profit over feed cost.
How farmers are losing millions
of dollars month after month by
feeding poor cows and the careless
feeding of what might be "fed
up" into good cows is illustrated
Fby a study of 554 cows in 35
herds made by the Illinois Agricul-
tural Experiment Station some
years ago. The highest fourth of
these cows produced an average
of 301 pounds of butterfat in one
year and the lowest fourth, 133
pounds. At prices paid for feed
and received for the product at
that time, the high COWS made an
average profit over feed cost of
$31.32 per cow, while the low pro
ducing cows only a little more
