We want to get their approval so that we can go before the general assembly with the cont mittee's backing. In fact, the final wording of the bill depends on the outcome of the committees deliber- ation this afternoon.
 The states needs will be adc- quatcly covered by one bill accord ing to Judge Johnson, which will contain several sections taking care of various phases ot the emergency. These sections will be so wordeG, Judge Johnson said, that if one is declared unconstitutional, others may stand as valid. Among the sections will be one validating the acts of state departments performed | in good faith under the assumption | that laws which they executed were valid. Other sections will attempt | to validate acts of municipalities, l private corporations and other pub lie and private entities affected by | the McCook case opinion.

HOG PRICES STILL
MOVE IN CYCLES

Records have been compiled by
the United States Department of
Agriculture covering the price of
hogs for the last 80 years.
Throughout this period hog prices
have continually changed. The ten
dency has been to reach a high
point every three to five years, then
to swing down for a. year or two,
and finally to swing up to another
high point. These price fluctuations
have been just as marked during
the last few years as formerly, says
the department. 1t is evident that
the forces tending to produce the
familiar hoy cycle are still in oper-
alton.
Generally, the high point in the
price cycle corresponds with a low
point in production, and vice versa
The ratio between the price of corn
and the price of hogs has much to
do, as every farmer knows, with
changes in hog production. Changes
in this ratio affect the relative pro-

their carnival season as opening
Thursday evening, June 9Th, and
closing Saturday night, June 18th.

and Better Carnival" and have
adopted as their slogan "The Big
gest and Best Yet" The carnival
booths and grounds will be much
more attractive than heretofore. The

scale than has ever been attempted
before. The act consists of the
filling and cutting loose of a large
balloon with two women aboard. At
IL to Is hundred feet one of the
women makes a parachute jump. At
approximately 1900 feet the other
woman makes her jump. Thrills
and excitement aplenty for every
one.
Another added feature of this
years carnival will be the giving
away each night of one or more
pieces of gold to the person on the
grounds whose name is drawn. Dur
ing the carnival season SIPS will be
given away in this manner. Satur-
day night, June Sth, will also be
featured by a chicken salad and
roast chicken supper, served by the
ladies of the st. Johnstown Com
munity. A mighty fine supper it will
be for so cents. Homemade ice
cream and cake will be extra at 10
and cents respectively.
Wednesday night, June 18th, will
be featured by pie and milk, cof-
fee and sandwich counter, conduct
ed by some of the ladies of Green
