anniversary of Abraham Lincoln. He
was born in the year 1809.
Friday, February 22nd, will be
the 197th anniversary o f the
birth of George Washington.
Mr. Hoover will end his stay in
Florida and return to Washington
the first of next week to finish get
ting himself in readiness for his
Inauguration.
Something is going to be done
about a better and cleaner voting
law In the State. If everybody
would vote honestly and let every
one else do the same, any old elec
tion law would suffice.
Congress has passed the cruiser
bill, and the President has asked
for an appropriation to begin con
struction. Should there be another
limitation of armament treaty
there would then be something to
scrap.

The engagement of CoL Cham. A.
Lindbergh end Anne Morrow,
daughter of United States Ambas
sador Dwight W. Morrow to Mexi
co, Is announced. CoL Lindbergh
had Just completed his return flight
from Panama to Florida when the
announcement was made.
The Legislature is still at work
** devising ways for raising more tax
money. The big item it seems
will be adding of an extra cent on
the gallon of gasoline, that will
not be altogether pleasing to au
tomobile owners. But if it Is prop
erly spent on road construction. It
will afford a little balm for the
wound.
Thomas A- RUaon, the electircal
Wizard, celebrated his 82nd birth
"lay on Monday, 11th lnsti .at his
winter home in Florida. President
elect Hoover was one' among the
many to tender congratulations.
Edison has about 1100 patents to
his credit and sttiT he works.
Everythng, almost, that Is electric
ally operated Is due directly or in
directly to Edison's genius.
Clinton 8. Carnes, defaulting
treasurer of the Baptist Hone Mis
sion Board, plead guilty last week
to one of 30 Indictments for em
besslement of the board's funds.
He was sentenced to the peniten
tiary for a term of five to seven
years and was placed In prison
Tuesday. He was tried in Atlanta
where be carried on his defalca
tions and will serve his sentence in
the Georgia penitentiary. He made
away with nearly a million dollars
as an audit of the records show,
around $100,000 for aach year he
was treasurer, and now the limit of
the penalty meted out to him is
seven yean. It is such sentences
as this that bring courts into dis
repute, and, perhaps, encourage
others to do as Carnes did.

Plaaaiij for Celebration
Washington's 200th Anniversary.
Washington, D. C.?Congress has
authrlzed appropriations of $4,500,
000 for a nation-wide celebration In
1932 of the 200the anniversary of
the birth of George Washington.
The commission which has charge
of the proposed celebration met re
cently to formulate definite plans
for this event.
As part of the proposed celebra
tion, the meeting adopted a reso
lution calling for the construction
of a suitable highway to connect
I Mount Vernon, Va., the home and
burial place of Washington, with
the south end -of Arlington Memo
f rial Bridge now being constructed
in the city of Washington over
the Potomac River.
The meeting also adopted a reso
lution for the publication of all of
George Washington's papers, except
his diary which has already been
published. Another resolution call
ed for the restoration of "Wake
field," birthplace of George Wash
ington. It provided further for the
appointment of a committee of
three to consider plans submitted
by the National Wakefield'Associ
ation and Army engineers for re
storation of this property, which Is
owned Jointly by the United States
and the Association.
President Coolidge, chairman of
the Commission, presided at the
meeting. Others present were, Sen
ator Fess of Ohio, vice chairman;
Senator Capper of Kansas; Senator
Glass of Virginia; Senator Baynard
of Delaware; Representative Tllson
of Conn.; Representative Byms of
Tenn.; the Vice President Charles
O. Dawes; C. Bascom Slemp of Vir
ginia; the Speaker of the House,
Nicholas Longworth; William Tyler
Page of Maryland, Clerk of the
House and executive secretary of
the commission, and Mrs. Sherman
of Denver, Colorado.
Dairying Now Clewed as
World's Largest Industry.
Growing, handling and feeding
cowg and dealing In their products
la now the World's largest industry.
Quoting Dr. C. W. Laraen, former
'thief of the dairy Industry bureau
at Washington, Fred ML 'Haig' of
State College says that fifty years
ago, the dairy industry was unde
veloped, unscientific and relatively
unimportant Today the dairy in
dustry of the United States is the
largest and most vital Industry in
the world. It has a far-reaching
effect upon health and property. In
1836, says Mr. Halg, the United
States produced one hundred and
twenty-one billion pounds of milk.
The population of this country Is
^increasing at the rate of about one
'million and a half each year and
since 1810, the production and con
sumption of dairy products has In
creased 51 percent.
The number of dairy cows per
thousand consumers has Increased
only 16 percent, showing that dairy
men are not trying to see how many
cows they can feed but are getting
more milk from less cows. There Is
no economy, says Mr. Halg, In keep
ing 30 cows when ten good animals
will produce more milk than the
30 low grade ones. In 1916, he
finds, the average amount of milk
produced per cow In the United
States was 3,700 pounds. In 1936,
this amount was 4,700 pounds per
cow. *
"Pure milk," says Mr. Halg, "con
tains all food elements In proper
proportion, including minerals and
vitamins, for the growth and the
health of young and old. This food
is In the most digestible and eco
nomical form. Every child should
have at least one quart of milk
each day. There Is no substitute
for butter; cheese Is a real food and
ice-cream Is delicious and nutri
tious. A survey made recently
Showed that 30 percent of the con
sumers food dollar was used for
dairy products."
Food For Chicks ia Greta
and Maah Ghreo By lapf.
The 100 chicks with which one
will start a poultry flock of SO hens
to be raised, will first need 450
pounds of feed up until the ninth
week, and thereafter, for the whole
year, the M hens selected will need
MM pounds of teed.
"The 4M pounds of feed nacdnil
for the 1M chicks up until ths
ninth week should be MO pounds of
grain." says Or. B. P. Baupp. head
of the poultry iVipsilseisil at ths
Slats OePapa- "Then when the M
hens are selected from the lot, these
hens will need M pounds of grain
and S pounds of aaeh per hen for
a year. This nates o total of 4,
M0 pounds of food that should bs
luuelded on the hate farm. Ol
this amount UN pounds is grain

j Did You Ever
Stop To Think
(Copyright 1928)
By Ed son RWaite, Shawnee, Okla.
All the things I had been healing
' about the new Spirit of St. L<ouls
came back to me the other day,
when I was In that rapidly growing
city.
My friend, E. lanslng Ray, presi
dent and publisher of The St. LohIs
Globe-Democrat, has been one ot
the leaders In the development of
this metropolis, and I was eager to
see the evidences of growth there.
The city Is being made over, with
>17,000,000 which was voted in 1923
for a bond Issue. Streets are be
| ing widened. Several imposing
civjc buildings are being built
' around what 1s to be the Municipal;
Plazk, In the heart of the business
district.
nd, with this civic building has!
come other construction?big of-!
flee and business structures, apart
ments, dwellings.
When I was In St. Louis, the
famous Municipal Opera was pre
paring for the opening of its tenth
season. This interesting entertain
' ment feature, with Its mammoth
i outdoor auditorium In Forest Park,
I attracts hundreds of thousands of
dramatic fans summer after sum
mer, and more than pays its way.
St. Louis Is decidedly air-minded,
I found. Col Lindbergh's famous
! U ans-Atlantic flight has fired the
' imagination of the people there.
That city is one of the principal
links in the newly organised Rall
vay-Alrway line, on which pas
sengers may ride by rail at night
and by air during the day to cut
the time of coast-to-cbast travel
in half.
I CAN APPRECIATE NOW WHY
ST. LOUIS IS PROUD OF HER
PAST HISTORY, AND ENTHUSI
ASTIC OVER THE HISTORY
WHICH SHE IS DESTINED TO
MAKE IN THE FUTURE.

ply the 1,750 pounds of mash -feed
also In the ration, the grower should
raise 10 bushels of com and 11
bushels of oats."
Some additional feed will also be
needed on the poultry farm for
young and growing birds, therefore
It. Kaupp says if the average farm
keeping a flock of 50 adult hens
will produce for the poultry, 25
bushels of corn, 26 bushels of oats
and 15 bushels of wheat, the owner
will need to buy only about 400
pounds of fish meal or meat meal,
406 pounds of middlings and 75
pounds of bono meal to have his
birds well fed.
Dr. Kaupp has worked out a
Horth Carolina laying mash and
a north Carolina grain feed which
has given excellent results on the
experimental poultry farms The
formula for mixing these feeds at
home will be supplied to any poultry
