He milked the eoWs, and Hazel sometimes helped him. ' "We fell In love," said the young wife, patting a bedraggled feather on her brown felt hat. "George was different from all the boys I knew at high school in Jefferson City. We used to meet in the smokehouse on our farm. I would bring fried chicken and cake.

JOHN GRASSER West McHenry State Bank, Clerking Washington, January 27 -- Speekd message* on specific legislation wanted by the ^hite House wjll fill the void created by .the inaugural address. The legislature was somewhat disappointed that the President voiced broad ideals rather than attempting to arouse public support for practical projects, which he will send up for Congressional approval. The automobile strike involving, as it does, the £eud between the American Federation of Labor and the John L, Lewis School of thought will undoubtedly delay a Presidential policy on the vital question at hours and wages now before the lawmakers' in .Tftrious forms. Other less controversial proposals have( been dispatched from the Chief Executive to the waiting solons. The arrival of a messenger from the President at the threshold of the Senate chamber is awaited by lawmakers gnd others of the political tribesmen. The tidings he brings in writing represent either a list of nominations jn which the concurrence of the Senate is sought or a message proposing a legislative policy. It is the appointment list that arouses Senatorial curiosity to such an extent that they frequently forget their dignity to rush to the clerk's desk for a peek at the names of proposed officials. Just now interest hinges in Cabinet changes as Jim Farley is re-named Postmaster General. While office-holders are encouraged at this trend, they have no assurance that the President will continue them in their high posts. The White House is peeved at the audacity of John/Lewis in presenting a bill to the^President for services during the""eIections. The labor union leader campaigned and his miners' union contributed about $250,000, which, he feels, entitles him to favoritism. He merely asks the President to personally intervene in the auto-, mobile strike, which represents Mr. Lewis' hopes for a labor dictatorship; --and reminds Mr. Roosevelt there is a little debt from last November to Influence official action. Seasoned observers believe, it would be folly for Mr. Roosevelt to accept dictation for it would immediately lessen his prestige and subject him to similar appeal^ whenever other pressure groups the convict learned Ids parole had laid their problems at the White House doorstep. The backwash of the bitter fight against public utilities is noted in an attack on the Federal judiciary. An impeachment proceeding has been brought to the attention of the House been refused, they fled to St. Louis where they stayed with relatives. Later they came to Chicago, living on $70 which they had saved. When that, was exhausted Mrs. Staler wrote to the clergyman asking for money. (1 There never was a love more beautiful," exclaimed Hazel while In her cell. "I want to go back to prison with George. I knew his whole story, and yet I married him." .. „ j i» i Singer has a criminal record dating months on Good Bank- to ion, when he was sent to the Missouri prison for robbery. Released In 1914, he and three compan< Ions held up and killed a paymaster in St. Louis, escaping with $3,000. They were caught and' all four were sentenced to life terms In prison. Singer escaped from the Jefferson City penitentiary In 1020, was captured and returned In 1925. In 1934, as a reward for nine years of good behavior, he was transferred to tbe honor farm.

J. Gore of Tennessee. It seems that' Mr. Rankin's complaint against the jurist is a resentment that nineteen injunctions%iay handicap the spread of government operation of power pro jects in the South. The possibility of a prolonged ligal battle to determine the rights of private citizens against Federal competition in the sale of power is something that irks Mr: Rankin. An impeachment, real or threatened, is considered a form of in* timidation, which accounts for the de lay in the Congress. One of the sore spots about relief administration in all localities is the fact that the Federal government itself stands as a barrier against the uncovering of hidden resources. The regulations of the Post Office Department, which gives the accounts in the Postal-Savings Division sacrosanct status, has caused more trouble for relief agencies than any one factor. It is an illustration of the inconsistency of the Federal government in demanding that banks and private financial institutions open up their ledgers for inspection to relief investigations in cases where applicants are suspected, of having hank accounts. Because it is one of the few instances where government competition with private business makes more of m bookkeeping than a real profit, it is extremely unlikely that the refuge ranted relief chiselers and others will disturbed at this session of Congress. The Post Office Department Epor Soil Needs x^ "Proper Treatment; Land That Produces Lowest Yields Found to Respond * to Building-Up. I,'. ; Supplied by the College of Agriculture. Uni; versitr of. Illinois.--WNu.'Serxjcf. -; Those soils which produce the lowest yields without treatment make the best response to soil-building practices, according to a bulletin, "Crop Yields from Illinois Soil Experiment Fields," , published bythe College bf Agriculture, Uhiversity of Illinois. "With the less productive soils, the increased yield from treatment was several tinges as great as the yield obtained without treatment," the bulletin states- "However, on the , more productive soils yields from the plots without ^treatment were several times asjjr'eat as any increase that could be attributed to soil treatment. • v "Despite this fact, on each field there was found at least one practice tha*'raised the efficiency Of pro^ jdiucticm enough to pay for the treatment. ; •'Whether the crop-producing capacity of the less productive soils can be raised to the present productive levels of the better soils seems doubtful. The gray and yellow soils after 25 years have potential levels only about one-half the level of the better untreated soils." Since 1876 when the Morrow plots, oldest soil experiment field in America, were established, the College of Agriculture has been studying the soils of the state to learn practices which would bring about more efficient production, lower the cost of production, improve -the quality of crops orv the soil and maintain soil fertility/ "With the Morrow plots located on the grounds* of the agricultural college at Urbana, a number of outlying fields have since been established throughout the state to study soil types in each section. During the past year's crop season, 26 permanent fields were in operation. New terest Is Taken in Jerusalem Artichokes A. neW interest is being taken in Jerusalem artichokes as a source of material for the manufacture of sugar and alcohol, states a writer in the Chicago Tribune.

The* Chevrolet 'driven. by Timothy Stone of Harvard was partially destroyed by fire at 5 o'clock Sunday afternodn, Jan. 17, on Route 14, near the Lundstrom farm south of Harvard, Harvard firemen responded to the calf for aid and quenched the blaze before it destroyed the entire car. The flames lire thought to have started from faulty wiring. ^ Earl Chappell of Buffalo, New York, was taken to the Sherman hospital in: Elgin, as 9 result of the collision of the coupe that he was driving and a truck driven by Walter Bailey of Ashland, Ohio, at 6:20 Thursday evening of last week, about six miles southeast ofv Marengo on Route 20. . The truck was destroyed by fire. The accident occurred on a slight curve. Bailey, who was going west, asserted that the coupe, which was east bound, was on the l^ft side of the road. A witness bore him out. in the statement. The pavement was dry, according to W. A. Halbleib, deputy sheriff. The truck yrith its shipment of tires and batteries caught on fire and burned. The coupe, badly wrecked, also caught on fire but the flames were extinguished. A caf driven by Charles Groin, 209 Franklin street, Barrington, collided with a truck owned by William Nolte, Smith road, Palatine, on Dundee road, a mile west of Kitty Corners. According to reports, Mr. Nolte had parked his truck on the highway and was loading milk cans. When Mr. Grom approached from the rear going east he was unable to stop due to the slippery road surface and crashed into the rear of the truck badly damaging his car. Ray Tate, employed by Brandt Dairy on a delivery route, was the second victim of the ice when his truck skidded as he was turning it from Cook street onto Barnes street near the Brandt Dairy and'bumped into a truck owned by Elmer Gahlbeck which was parked nearby. The dairy truck was damaged on one side drowned T«eSda|Sf|rening ©f iast week in the a^nunijaf lank at the Jm*ior high^cffirip Mr, as a guestM Boy-Scot* troep 25, was given permission to. enjoy the tank when the members wentin, followmg a scout session.

It is significant that while and was Uken to a Barrington garage highly praised as a feed and food, as well as a source of carboCharges against William Wagner of hydrates used in the chemical industry, the Jerusalem artichoke is not commonly grown in a community for any great length of time. In some eastern sections this crop is reported to have yielded eight tons or more an acre. Crop experts \jn Illinois report the Jerusalem arti- |£hoke yielding an average of sixteen tons of more an acre. Pigs fed on artichokes along with wheat and oats have made good gains. Sometimes pigs are turned into a patch or and allowed to root up y^e~tbfoetfs and eat them along with supplementary feeds. Pigs have been found to make little gain when fed on artichokep aiepe. Battling Weeds: If anything is to be accomplished in coping with the weed problem, it must be done by attacking the fundamental causes of the situation. The use of clean seed to-prevent the introduction of new weeds and stop the spread of those already present must be practiced, says the Rural New-Yorker. The land must be kept in a good state of fertility to make conditions favorable for crop growth. Lastly, every possible method of weed killing should be practiced. Weed control is a year-around job starting in the fall by cleaning up waste places, cleaning and selecting seed during the winter, clipping, spraying and cultivation during the growing season.

It will be recalled that with the bank failures in 1933 instilling fear as to the stability of private banking institutions that there was a wholesale lmsh to transfer accounts to government agencies, particularly the postalsavings system. Private bankers have complained that when drastic regulations were, issued prohibiting people, who had private «savings accounts, from obtaining a place on the relief rolls the postal system, became increasingly popular, especially when it wag known that the amount of the^tfccount would be kept a secret even -from Federal agents. It is one of the shortcomings of the relief program whfch has- never been emphasized. It is not true, of course, that all the depositors in the postal-savings system are seeking to avoid investigation of their resources for this system was established long before the depression and offer an element of security backed'by the Treasury Department.

As she returned to her machine from a shopping trip, she heard the door slam and saw a man leaving the automobile. In a car parked ^right next to hers she saw the groceries which she had put in her own machine before making another trip to the shopping district. She obtained a good description of the man she had seen leaving her car. This was reported to the police and they started to watch the other car.

Wehrenberg, narrowly escaped injury when the car she was driving east on Rockland road, skidded on the icy pavement and plunged down the east bank of the Des Plaines river, on the north side of the road. Although the car, which had turned around and slid backwards down the bank, took a drop of nearly 12 feet, Miss Wehrenberg was uninjured and no damage was done to the car, a Ford V-8. Two horses and one pony yrere killed, almost instantly, when they were struck by a Rainbo Bakery bread truck driven by William Sutherland of Aurora on Route 63 near Bateman road crossing southwest of Barrington at 6:30 a. m., Monday of last week. The animals were owned by R. W. Kenyon, Barrington township, and were used by him for riding purposes. How they got out of the pasture was not learned. Mr. Sutherland was coming to Barrington on his regular early merning delivery route and when he came over the crest of the hill, found the animals directly in his path. The impact damaged the truck badly, tipping it over on its side, and the horses died of injuries in a short time. The damage was further increased when a car driven by Harold E. Logan, 4600 W. Kinzie street, Chicago, who was going to Dundee, crasherf'into the bakery truck and upset, Neither driver was injured but both were shaken up. Logan's car was also heavily damaged and had to be towed to a garage. James "Chuckie" Stancliff, 10-yearold son of Mr. and Mrs. F. W.
