McLrfmghlm of the state department of agriculture has announced that 'less than 500 herds of dairy cattle in Illinois have not befen tested for bovine tuberculosis. The only untested herds in the state are in Randolph, Hancock, Warren and Winnebago counties. I In view of the recent, decision of | Circuit Judge L. E.

Fay toqk a small pad from his pocket and sketched a picture of Robert. The latter's son, Abraham, saw the sketch and asked for it.

Crihfield, editor of the Atlanta Argus at Atlanta, who with several relatives recently visited Lincoln's tomb and Herbert Wells Fay, custodian of the tomb, who have been friends many years, talked at length oh an incident in connection with Robert Lincoln, son of Abraham Lincoln." Forty-nine years ago both men were on the "Dispatch" ,in the Merrimac Treatment centers for 125,000 home less and transient persons in Illinois are to be established by the federal relief administration in eight Illinois cities. The purpose of th^yrogram 1s to stop the present policy of passing transients on from one community to another. At each treatment center, transients and homeless are to be given physical care including shelter, adequate food, case work treatment, clean bed linen, barbering, medical service, work when possible, recreation, laundry service, bathing facilities and clothing.

" ' Laboratory tests will be made by the state department of finance of all supplies purchased by the state to make certain they are up to standard* The new rule applies especially to foodstuffs. With the purchasing on: a stricter basis, it is believed that there will be additional bidders. If I am reliably informed, Governor Horner bought two million barrels of cement from the Marquette cement company at an average of $1.- 44 per barrel, while Governor Emmerson bought cement at the close of his administration at 94c per barrel. This makes a difference of one million dollars. ' It is also reliably fcrought to my attention that had Governor Horner purchased the cement from the different compaines who put in bids at $1.62 per barrel, it would have cost less than the price of $1.44 per barrel on account of the location of the different cement companies over the state and the excess freight. While negotiating the waste of this money about 30,0(k) men were kept? out of employment, and the state probably fed the men during that tiipe. Relief from Illinois' epidemic of automobile thefts is promised through the administration of the new Illinois certificate of title law, which will becorpe effective on Jan. 1, 1984. Illinois automobile owners, before obtaining their 1934 state license plates, will be required to register with the secretary of state thek- title to their vehicles. A fee of fifty cents is charged for the certificate and it is good for the life of the car with its present owner.; % > TVp men," prominent ih public, life, for many years, wore elevated to hew positions when Judge Louis Fitz- Henry was sworn in as judge of the United States circuit court of appeals at Chicago and Congressman J.

Under the Illinois law, prison-made goods cannot be sold on the open market. ^ The code, which has been submitted unofficially to federal authorities at Washington is designed as an answer to charges by outsiders that unfair prison competition is responsible for conditions in some of the industries. The state's general revenue fund was increased $100 recently, when record was made of the first conviction under the state beer act. The fine was paid by Charles D. Boys, Kewanee, for operating a beer tavern without a state license, the; department of finance announced. Briefs and arguments in support of the 2 per cent sales tax were filed in the state supreme court refcently by Attorney General Otto Kerner and Assistant Attorney General Montgom ery S. Winning. This completes the record for arguments on the case Oct. 18. "The briefs iff behalfvof the state contend that the act is valid and that the judgment of the Sangamon circuit court, where Judge 'Lawrence Stone held the law constitutional, should .be sustained.
