FRIDAY, MAY 9, 1930 LOOKS LIKE DEATH FOR HOME BREW The Federal Supreme Court this week rendered a decision that will he far reaching in checking the making of home-brew. The court held the sale of barrels, bottles, caps, malt and equip­ ment to be a violation of the law where offered or displayed for that purpose. While dark clouds have for some time been5hov­ ering over the prohibition cause and enforcement being some­ what checked d)y a change in public sentiment, friends and sup­ porters of the cause will now have a new basis to continue stricter enforcement-of the law. The public has had a change of mind more from the maner of enforcement than a real desire to return to old conditions. •\ “ konjola easily J I BESTMEDICINE I I EVERTRIED” by Arthur Brisbane The President Hopes Russia, Italy, Peace Workers Live*'Longer Cheap at a billion President Hoover tells the United States Chamber of Commerce, “While the crash only took place six months ago, I am convinced we have passed the worst, and with continued unity of effort we shall rapidly recover." _*dy S u ffe red F o r Y e a r s from In d ig e s tio n t h a t D e fied E v e ry R em e d y P u t t p t h e T e s t That will encourage many.

A GOOD ROAD IS THE CHEAPEST ROAD « There is more interest being taken in the type of road build­ ing today than any time in the past ten or twelve years. There are two main .reasons for this as we see it. First economic con­ ditions are causing people to take stock of not only the cost of public improvements but whether the life of the improvement justifies the cost. Second, the automobile owner is being taxed in various ways to build and provide for the Upkeep of roads and judging from the automobile population this represents a very large per cent of the voters. Just at this time there is much discussion and in some in­ stances some very just criticism of officials who have our road building program in charge. The public looks upon the situa­ tion of a county haying an investment of a hundred thbusand dollars in road equipment to man and support to experiment with cheap road materials, particularly gravel. We know of roads in this section that were built by con­ tract that require little overhead cost for upkeep. These roads are proving to be not only the .most satisfactory to the motorist but the motorist is finding out that little of the money he con­ tributes is necessary to keep a good road in repair. Probably one of the best built roads in the county is the Xenia-Cedarville stone macadam. Another is the Cedarville-Jamestown tar bound macadam. Both have been in use many years and re­ quire a.small cost each year for upkeep. Compare this with the gravel road even tar bound. There is not a gravel tar bound road in this section of the state that in ten ye.ars will not cost more for upkeep than a stone macadam road. Some weeks ago we traveled over the Xenia-Springfield cement road. This type of road construction cost considerable money and there may be some question as to durability. From present indications the life of the road may be ten or twelve years. It h.as a cross-section crack now about every fifteen or twenty-feet. In numerous places the top has sloughed off show­ ing a breaking up of the concrete. From the present condition of the road the cost did not warrant that type. It probably would have been better to have chosen brick even at a higher price. v The automobile development came upon us so fast that much, of our road building years back were but experiments. That stage is now past and the public, must demand of public officials having road building in charge that we get more for our money. Some of the present gasoline tax was forced through the legislature by the road machinery interests who have no in­ terest in the better type of .roads. They know that certain equipment owned by a contractor will put /‘down hundreds of nyles of hard surfaced roads that require little upkeep. With the cheap type of roads the average^piece of road machinery is good for not to exceed five years. A well known farmer stated to the writer some days ago that what each county in Ohio should have was a live taxpayers, association to keep a close . check on road building and the amount spent fpr road machin­ ery. He made some startling statements of how things are be- ing managed and hundreds of dollars of the hard earned money of automobile owners was nothing more than wasted in machin­ ery to work gravel roads. ■ * • Lowering the federal reserves dis­ count rate to 3 per cent in the New York district surprised all that lack advance information. In accordance with our custom we followed the British, lowering our rate here when theirs was lowered. This gratifies England, which feared that a rate lower than ours would cause Britis’i ti.,d shipments to this country. PAINLESS Extractions Asleep i.

Bryan .would be amazed to hear congress discussing tariff protection for silver. He thought silver, at sixteen to one, could stand forever as gold’s younger brother. He did not forsee Chinese wars re­ easing Chinese silver hoards, or India itopping silver purchases that have stabilized silver mining for many generations. . If it were not for moving pictures with “Silver screens” using tens of millions’ worth of silver yearly, more nines wpuld close. Certainly American screens should jse American silver, and t h e . tariff should see to it." While it lasts, a dictatorship seems the simplest form of government. Ev­ erything is peaceful in Russia, where everybody is radical, Russia has dictator. • ' Everything is ^peaceful in ‘Italy, where nobody is allowed to be radical Italy has a dictator. In Russia, reversing the theories of Karl Marx, and managed by extreme­ ly able men, the people are quiet, abedient. In Italy, where Karl Marx would not be publicly mentioned, a nation, naturally radical, is told that there has been too much talk about liberty and people are obedient. The question is, how long?

Eckei% president of the Metropoli tan Life Insurance company, concern ing 19,000,000 industrial policy-holders in the United ^States and Canada, shows that workers are living longer than they used to. Thanks to science and prosperity the death rate among wage-earners has diminished. Mr. Ecker’s statisti­ cal bureau shows a new'low death rate of 9.4 per 1,000 during March. More adults that live, fewer .babies that die, is a good program. . It Is said that the new tariff will cost the United States $1,000,000,000 a year. It will, probably, and un doubte’dly that tariff contains many jobs, deals and mistakes. But if the tariff enables only 5,000,- 000 American workmen to earn $1.00 a day more than they would have earned without the tariff, that would repay the billion with a bonus of 50 per cent, to say nothing of added pro fit that would encourage business men. to build up industry and national prosperity.

Rosebough, 47 .Sycamore street, Dayton, Ohio. “Knowing the pain and distress that was sure to follow every meal, I ate just enough to keep me going, and naturally I lost weight, strength and vitality. There were many days when I was too sick and weak, to do my housework. My complexion was yel­ low, and I was in poor condition gen­ erally, • “Konjola was brought to my atten­ tion by endorsements of Dayton peo­ ple, and I finally made up my mind to try it. Well, I certainly had 0 fine surprise in store for me. My appetite began to improve* and I found that from day to. day I could eat more and suffer less, Improvement kept on steadily and when I had finished my ninth bottle of Konjola I was able to eat anything I craved, My com­ plexion is clear, and I am feeling simply great.” Many express amazement a t the speed which Konjola works.

But he had difficulty in sep arating stations, One Sunday he tried to tune in and got three sta­ tions coming in on the same wave length. One was a minister up in Iowa preaching a sermon, the sec­ ond was a St. Louis station telling of the road conditions and the third was a Chicago station broadcasting a talk to farmers on raising chick­ ens. Here is what he heard: “The old testament tells us that baby chickens should detour one mile south of Salino and listen to the voices of the prophet Sysysy. Use great care in the selection of your eggs and you will find a hard .road all the way to Tulsa. We find in Genesis that the roads are mud­ dy just west of the henhouse and you should use clean straw in the nests if yoU expect to save your soul, After you pass thru Leaven­ worth, turn north to Jericho. There were three wise men who bought an incubator on account of the bad de­ tour. The baby chicks were troubled with living a righteous life and turn south at the school house, “Much care should be Used • in commanding the sun to stand still, as there is a washout on the road jiist south of Paloa, and the road (9 salvation is undergoing repairs, making it necessary to keep the temperature in the brooder house at least and a bond issue a t 70 de­ grees is being talked of by keeping your feet in the straight path. Af­ ter you leave Joplin unless you'do these things the wrath of God will cause pin feathers to fall out and detour one mile south of the ceme­ tery. “Many are called but few have any luck unless the graveled road between Lawrence and'Topeka is mixed with the feed. Out of 500 eggs one should have good roads to Hutchinson and He commanded Noah to build an ark just one mile west of Witchita. I t rained forty days and n ighty and caused an eight mile detour just west of the brood house. Many tourists from Jerusalem are trying Plymouth Rocks this year, mixed with con­ crete and water to the right pro­ portion makes the soul feel free and fresh eggs for breakfast.” m a * * V Criterion 'V alue V irst C lothier# a For Men Young Men and Boys 28 S.
