may bring the levy to SO cents,
lower by 2 cents than this year.
Criticism was aimed at several
units today, including courts and
Sunnyside tuberculosis sanatorium.

election fraud probe a coke"
Tell them to take that and go
to hell" Dunn declared. The re-
mark was heard by numerous spec
tators.
Dunn launched further criticism
at the management of the tubercu-
losis hospital, asserting revenue re-
ceived from patients there are too
low" The council will attempt to
find a loophole to escape paying for

Good Will Makes
Better Railroads

Many.great Improvements have
oeen effected in raiIroading in the
last generation. One Of the great
est Of these is in the relations Of
the railroads with the public.
Every mature person today can
remember when railroads were
viewed and treated with sus-
pieion, distrust and open hostil-
ity. 1t seemed then to be the
prevailing idea that they must be
held in restraint. Regulation de-
veIoPed into stranguIation.
All that is changed now. The
prevailing attitude toward the
railroads is one Of fairness based
upon good will. As a result the
railroads are better servants of
the public. The splendid record
which they have made in the last
decade has been due in no small
part TO this enlightened attitude.
Good will has proved its value
to the railroads and to the pub
lie. 1t deserves to be continued.
To its continuance our railroad,
with the cooperation Of its many
friends, hopes to contribute.
Constructive criticism and sug-
gestions are invited.

CABBAGE PLANTS MAY
SERVE AS PASTURAGE

Bartholomew County Farm Agent
Suggests Salvage From Crop Failure.
BIZ Times Special
COLUMBUS, Ind, Sept. 2.-There
will be practically no yield from
500 acres of Bartholomew county
land planted in cabbage this year,
according to William A. Douglass,
county farm agent, drought having
prevented the plants from reach
maturity.
Douglass suggests that the stalks
may serve as a substitute for pas
turage which is in poor condition
due to hot, dry weather.
However, he cautions against per-
hitting dairy COWS to eat the stalks,
as ar odor in milk will result. How
ever, this may be overcome if the
COWS are removed from the cab
bage plant diet about five hours
before milking.
