Baked Bean Labels
Aid Careful Buyer

Black pots Of beans and fat-bacl
pork simmer on the stoves in man!
American kitchens today, but many
housewives prefer to buy their porl
and beans or baked beans at the
store, says V. B. Bonney of the Fed
eral Food and Drug Administration
And the wise buyer will read labels
on the case before she makes hel
purchase, he adds.
Bonny points out that there are
several kinds of pork and beans, anc
a number of different cooking pro
.cesses. Baked beans are cooked, be-
fore canning, in an oven, with dry
heat, says Bonney, and are preferred
by many people. "Boston baked"
and New England baked" beans are
Favored with molasses, and have
salt pork.
Canned pork and beans, he ex-
plains, are combinations of different
varieties of beans cooked with pork
The beans will vary in size, depend
ing on the variety used. Such beans
are not dry-heat baked beans, but
are sealed in cans and processed
with steam.
Baked beans and pork and beans
are usually cooked with some kind
of sauce, such as plain or tomato
sauce. The sauces of different man
ufacture differ to some degree, since
different quantities and kinds Of
spices are used for flavoring. To-
mato sauce, commonly used is made
with tomato pulp and water, some
times lightly spiced and sweetened.
Not all baked beans and pork and
beans are put up in the same size
cans. The buyer, however, can make
sure how much she is getting for
her money by reading the quantity
of-contents on the label. The ma
tional pure food law requires that
such statement be printed on the
labels of packaged foods shipped in
terstate.

devotion to high principles of govern
ment," the telegram continued. "They
are convinced that the only practical
way to make victory certain in No
vember is by assuring that the party
will enter its convention financially
ready to start an effective campaign as
soon as the convention is over.
IN view of the vital need to put the
party in a strong position financially,
am confident that we may expect
Ohio to do its full share just as | am
confident that our assembled delegates

man capable of leading the party to
victory and the country to the way out

Ohio's quota may be difficult. 1t can
be done, however, and will be done if
every citizen who demands an admin
istrative change at Washington and
the retention of the services of able
Governor George White through re-
election contributes according to his
means"

whether that chart will reveal that
Ohioans have met their share of re-
sponsibility of helping to finance a
winning campaign depends upon the
extent of forthcoming contributions.
Many Ohioans are among the $4,000

Among some of the features OF
camp life at the various camps that
visitors will enjoy this summer are:

McBurg Man Asks
Verdict be Changed

Motion to set aside and vacate the
verdict Of the jury in the case of
Clarence Trainer of Mechanicsburg,
against William M. Whitacre, drug
store proprietor and city commits
sioner of Springfield, was filed in
the Clark county common pleas
court Saturday by attorneys for the
plaintiff.
The jury returned verdict for
the defendant Thursday, refusing to
award any of the $4,000 damages
sought by Trainer, who claimed to
have been i'll for 13 months of "jake
leg" paralysis, allegedly due to de-
fectively prepared Jamaica ginger
which was purchased in the Whitacre
Drug Store in Springfield, March 10,
1880.
The plaintiff set forth six points
as its reasons for having the verdict
set aside and vacated. 1t charges,
among other alleged discrepancies,
the following: Misconduct of pre-
vailing party, verdict under influence
Of passion and prejudice, error on
law in that the defendants case was.
not sustained by sufficient evidence
and accident and surprise which or
dinary prudence could not have
guarded against.
The motion was filed by Deaton
and Bodey, law firm of Urbana, and
w. Y. Mahar, of Springfield.

Rockne Reports Gain
1. + 1. + !. + + + = I. + 1.

Detroit-A gain of 1927 per cent
in Rocl1ne retail deliveries by dealers
for May over April was announced
today by George NJ. Graham, vice
president Of Rockne Motors Corpora
ton. This is a further gain over the
1O5 per cent increase in Rockne reg
istrations for April over March,
Graham said.
'tThe May figures were compiled
from our regular Today reports
from Dealers" Graham said, land
they show an upward trend for every
Today period. For example, every
period in each Of the two months
showed a substantial gain over the
previous period, as well as over
the corresponding periods for the
previous months"
Deliveries reported IN the last l0
days of May were especially i'm
pressive, showing a gain of 42.3 per
cent over deliveries in the cores
ponding period in April.
'The fact that the last 10 days in
May also showed gain of 25.1 per
cent over the previous Today period
in May" Graham added, ''is one Of
our most encouraging symptoms of
returning prosperity"
Another interesting comparison
showed that deliveries in 22 key
points throughout the country had
made steady gains during the three
May Today periods. The second pc
riod registered a 10 per cent in
crease over the first, while the third
showed a further gain of 20.9 per
cent over the second May period.
Chevrolet Report
Chevrolet dealers reported the sale
Of 4S,2l8 new passenger ears and

the last period it climbed to 1921

This entrance into June on rising
sales curve is one Of the most hope
full signs for the month now evident,
Mr.. Knudsen pointed out.
In June the Chevrolet company,
largest in the industry, is conducting
an intensive new car campaign
among more than two million owners
of low-priced cars, two and three

ment, Mr.. Knudsen stated.

S7-Year-Old War
Veteran Learning
To Drive Auto

Knoxville, Tenn.-An 87-year-old
Civil War veteran is now taking les
sons at the Chevrolet agency here to
learn how to drive the first automobile
he ever owned. As soon as he has
mastered the few simple operations,
he is going to nose the car toward the
Pacific Coast, and with his wife parked
on the front seat beside him, he and
his 88-year-old mate are going to go
places for the first time in their lives.
They will go to Texas first, and then
to California, and en- route they will
call on some of their immediate fam
lily, of.whom there are twelve children,
fifty grandchildren and seventy great
grandchildren.
Hale and hearty, smoking cigaret
and with springtime sparkle in au-
tumnal veins, R. M. Petty, the veteran,
swung down automobile row here re-
Gently with a firm and purposeful
stride.
Perhaps the patriotic fervor which
plunged him into the Civil war inn
PEELED him to do battle now against
the depression by distributing the
work and wages which a new car rep
resents. Perhaps he wanted to get un-
der the wire before the sales tax add
ed to the cost of his car. Or it might
have been simply that springtime
urge.
At any rate, he liked four-door Sc
dan on the floor of the Spiers Chevro-
let sales room. He liked its looks and
the way it sounded and the ease with
which he could learn to drive it. And
he liked its price, too, so he signed the
order.
Now he is taking driving lessons,
while Mrs. Petty is busy gathering to-
gether the things which will fill the
rear of the car when they cross the
no-longer-restricting boundaries of
their county.
They were married 81 years ago,
and Petty suffered two wounds as a.
member of the Ninth Tennessee Cav
alry in the Civil War;

BILLION ACRE SURVEYED

Nearly billion acres of farm lands
in the United States have been map
ped by soil surveyors of the United
States Department of Agriculture.
This area is greater than the COM
bined area of European Germany,
France and Great Britain. The work
is now progressing at the rate of
more than 15,000,O00 acres each year,
and department officials estimate that
between 20 and 30 years will be re-
quired to complete the survey. The
cost of the work is between and 3
cents an acre.

"I'm glad | killed him. If you'll

So declared Chester Beedy, %, of
Washington C. H., who late Thursday
night shot and killed Clyde Rowe,
80, who had taken his sweetheart,

Beedy sits in the Fayette county

Police say Beedy had warned the
