LIFE WAS A MISERY TO HER Says this Woman Until Re lieved by Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound. Carrollton, Ky. —“I suffered almost two years with female weakness. I 0 could not walk any distance, ride or take any exercise at all without resting. If I swept the floor or did any kind of work it would bring my sickness on. I was weak and lang uid, had no energy, to me. • I was under the care of a good physician for sev eral months and tried other remedies. I had read of Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vege table Compound and decided to try it. After taking twelve bottles I found myself much improved and I took six more. I have never had any more trouble in that respect since. I have done all kinds of work and at present am an attendant at a otate Hospital and am feeling fine. I have recom mended your Vegetable Compound to dozens of my friends and shall always recommend it.”— Lillian Tharp, 824 S. 6th St., Carrollton, Ky.

NATIONALIZATION OF ROADS ASKED RAILWAY WORKERS ALREADY OUT—WILL BE JOINED BY MINERS AND DOCKMEN GOVERNMENT FIGHTS STRIKE Government Feels Confident It Can Break The Backbone Os * The Strike Paris. —The strike of the railroad men for nationalization of the rail ways, which is to be joined by the miners and dockmen, has resulted thus far in hindering traffic on four of the big five systems. Temporarily, however,- the state line, which runs to Havre, is tied up. Services on all lines are curtailed. The Parisian forces are operating about 50 per cent except the Lazarre state system, which canceled all trains from the capital. The government’s determination to fight the strike for nationalization hsa been voiced by Minister of Public Works LeTrocquer and Premier Miller and. M. Millerand said the govern ment was prepared to do its duty in the maintenance of order and to pro tect the men who remained at work. M. LeTrocquer expressed confidence in the outcome of the situation. He ex plained that foreseen the con flict, and that as a result the railways, public services and industries had been provided with the greatest supplies of coal that they had had at any time since the signing of the armistice. In carrying out its policy to break the strike, the government again has issued a decree to requisition motor trucks and other transportation equip ment in certain regions. The response of the miners to the strike order is awaited with interest, especially as they have been granted their recent demands. The secretary of the miners’ union in the Loire de partment has asked the men not to obey the strike order. Technical students and volunteers who were organized by the government during the strike last February already are replacing many of the railroad men who have ceased work. Official figures issued give the cas ualties resulting from the disorders as three dead and 102 wounded, of whom six remain in hospitals, two of them in a dangerous condition. The arrests aggregated 103. The foreigners among those arrested are to re deported. STOLEN STOCKS IN WALL STREET BRING LARGE FORTUNES TO THIEVES Amazing Details Os Methods Used In Marketing Securities Stolen By Exchange Messengers New York. —Amazing details of the methods used in marketing securities valued at millions of dollars that were alleged to have been stolen by street messengers for "Nick” Arnstein, and “Nick” Cohn, fugitives from jus-; tice, are revealed in a confession by David W. Sullivan, former member of the Consolidated Stock Exchange, now on file in the federal court. Sullivan’s confession was made in tes timony taken by United States Com missioner Gilchrist, during the last month, and shows that brokers to whom the stolen securities were taken for negotiation obtained loans on them from reputable hanking firms. Sulli van is under indictment and a police search for Arnstein for several months has been futile. According to Sullivan's testimony, about six hundred thousand dollars worth of the stolen securities came in to his possession on which he raised two hundred and fifty thousand and gave the thieves one hundred and twenty-five thousand dollars. The stocks were sold in small lots at one fourth of their market value, changing hands in saloons, street corners and hotel rooms in various cities. Federal and county officials here believe that banks and brokerage houses in the United States and Can ada have close to two million dollars I of stolen securities on hand, but are not aware of the fact, owing to the ingenious methods used in disposing of them as collateral for loans. Irish Hunger Strikers Sent To Hospital j Belfast. —Thirty-five more hunger strikers were removed from the Bel . fast jail to a hospital, making sixty nine who have been released in the past two days. George Murnaghan, a solicitor of Omagh, was arrested by the military and brought to Belfast. He was elected agent for Arthur Grif fArth, founder of the Sinn Fein organ ization.

Church Os England May Bar Sermons London. —Are sermons indispensa ble? This is one of the questions on which a decision may be taken by the bishops of the Church of England at their meeting in Lambath in July. A section of churchmen are declared to be of the opinion that the day of the sermon has passed. They hold that if a man has not the gift of preaching it would be better for every one that he should not preach. The "two sermons each Sunday” custom, they say, im poses a great strain on the clergy THE MONTGOMERY MONITOR. MT. VERNON, GEORGIA. 25,000 JOIN REBEL FORCES I 7 . Secessionists Massing To Overthrow Carranza Regime—Defections From Carranza Government Repoted Agua Prieta. —Rebel troops are pre paring to march on Mexico City from the state of Guerrego, Gen. P. Elias Calles, commander-in-chief of the “lib eral constitutionalist” army, announces at Agua Prieta. The revolution in Guerrero, he says, is more serious for' the Mexican fede ral government than the movement in Sinaloa, where troops under Gen. An gel Flores continue to progress toward Mazatlan. The revolutionists from Sinaloa and Sonora plan to join with the rebels in Guerrero for the attack on Mexico City. In Jalisco, the next state south, the revolutionary forces are said to be making headway, as is reported also in the case of Colima, where the capi tal city is Colma, and the port of Man zannillo, which are objectives of the victorious rebel troops. Michoacan also is reported iu revolt against Carranza, and adjoins Guerrrero. Gen. Alvaro Obregon is said to he directing the revolutionary movements in Guerrro after having fled recently from the Mexican capital. Reports from Ei Paso that a force of Carranza troops in Chihuahua City had revolted gave strength to the rebels assertion that Carranza officials massing troops in western Chihuahua for an attack on Sonora were having difficulty in or ganizing their men for battle. More soldiers have arrived here from eastern Sonora and southern parts of the state. More were en route, it is’ said, and it is stated at military head | quatrers that should Carranza post pone an attack on Sonora, rebel troops from this state will attack Chihuahua. More than fifty thousand soldiers Mexico are now in revolt against tne Carranza government, it is announced at military headquarters here. Nearly half this number, it is said, have joined the revolutionary forces in Sonora. LOUIS E.

Drives Needham Back To Pen Joliet, 111. —Robert Needham, paroll ed three weeks ago after serving part of a sentence for burglary, scaled the walls of the state penitentiary from the outside early in the morning and sneaked back into prison because he found himself unable to cope with the high cost of living as a free man. The prison officials say it is the first time a convict has climbed the walls to “get back” into the penitentiary. Need ham says “the only way to beat the high cost of living is to go to prison.” PRODUCTS FROM TIMBERED AREA Valuable Object Lesson to Farm ers Who Have Not Marketed Woodland “Crops,” SUCCESS OF ASSOCIATIONS Way Pointed Out to Secure Returns on Many Wooded Tracts Now Un profitable—Go-operative Organi zation of Big Benefit. (Prepared by t lie United States Depart ment of Agriculture.) By utilizing the by-products of their business 'and handling them in large quantities many concerns have added materially to their profits. There is a valuable object lesson in this to Dinners in many parts of the country who have not been market ing the products of their woodlands. Most farmers have not realized that tinhered areas can ho made to yield a regular “crop,” which could be counted a profitable by-product. It not a principal product—nor do they appreciate the benefit that would come through handling the output of the woodland in such large quantities as is possible through co-operative pur chasing and marketing organizations £■l ' r«> JKwKS* .-A Through Co-operation Several Owners of Wooded Tracts Can Realize Profits on Land Which Otherwise Would Yield No Return. among the farmers of the United States, and forest service experts in the United States department of ag riculture believe that the principle on which these associations have suc ceeded eon he applied to handling woodland products in many parts of the country. Size of Association’s Interests. A co-operative association of wood land owners should represent a suffi cient stand of timber to provide op erations for a considerable term of years, if not indefinitely. While It might’ pay such an organization to market 0,000.000 feet of lumber—the product of perhaps 1,000 acres of woodland —such an organization would he vastly more profitable if Its members were owners of 25,000,000 feet. In any case, the capital invest ed should he quite definitely limited by the amount of lumber available for manufacture. The kind of forest products to be marketed will of course vary In differ ent sections, but In most coses lum ber will be the chief product. For this reason an association should em ploy ?t competent manager familiar with the lumber business and one able EARLY OUTBREAK OF ! HESSIAN FLY LIKELY Another Invasion of Pest Is Ex pected This Spring. United States Department of Agricul ture Has Made Complete Prepar ations to Make Number of important Studies. It is likely that more will be learn ed this year about the Hessian tiff than in any year since General Howe’s hired Hessians are supitosed to have brought the (test to Long Island dur ing the Revolution. There have been numerous destructive outbreaks of the' Hessian fly and a great deal Ims been found out about it. but nobody was In position to do the job properly. An other outbreak Is likely this spring, and the United States department of agriculture Is ready for It. Two years ago the appropriation for Hessian fly work was increased suf flelently to provide for the principal needs. Shortly afterward the bu reau of entomology established three •nations for the purpose of systematic ntnd.v. They tire at Carlisle. I*a.. Cen tralia. 111., and Wichita, Kan. Each station is equipped with a full sot of weather Instruments, and several readings are taken each day through out the year. Sowings have been made at various dates for several •.-ear.-, to determine the fl,v-f;#e period for each year. Experiments have been conducted with many varieties of wheat to determine their fly-resist ing qualities. Exhaustive lnvestlga to grade lumber. He "Should fa miliarize himself with the woodland resources of association members, and should know the marketing situation with respect to lumber and related j products, as this will be a factor in deciding whether existing plants are sullieient for the association’s Wood land products, or if additional equip ment such ns auto trucks, railroad sidings, and machinery are needed. It is highly desirable that he have a working knowledge of forestry, in order that he “may direct ttie cutting of timber in such away that the stand will lie perpetuated. Use of Portable Sawmill. A specific illustration of the advan tage to l>e derived from co-operative effort is found In the use of a port able sawmill. If properly employed It becomes an exceedingly prolilahle investment for u group of woodbind owners, although an Individual could scarcely afford to buy one. The mill can be moved from one section to an other from year to year until practi cally the entire area lias been cut over, after which. If sulhclent linn* lias elapsed, a second cutting can lie started. It. is not necessary to put a large amount of money into a plant If Ihe association decides to arrange with a local mill man to saw the lumber for its members. In that fvenl: its main function becomes ihe shipping and sale of Its product after Ihe man ner of many fruit shipping associa tions which pool their fruit accord ing to grade and variety and pro rate their receipts. On the hand. If a sawmill, turning plnnl, or other wood-using machinery Is to lie operated, considerable capital will he required and the salary and expenses of the manager ami his co-workers will have to he provided. . Permanent Benefits Secured. Not the least valuable result to be expected from a co-operative forest products association Is the establish ment of permanent local Industries, and prosperity resulting to the whole community, in contrast to the ex ploitation of forests hy temporary in dustries and imported labor. Tin* tende|yy Ims been to develop the wood-using industries entirely apart from the community life. Forest re sources have been exploited so ex tensively ll’ % ‘ Imported labor has largely supplemented local labor. One of the unfortunate results of this pol icy has been to cause the abandon ment of farms in certain communities, notably In New England and Pennsyl vania. Persons interested in securing more detailed Information on this subject should address the Forest Service, United Stales Department of Agricul ture. lions are under way on parasites of the Hessian fly. The main object is to determine what effect the presence or absence of any particular pantsile has on periodical outbreaks of the fly. When the last great outbreak came five or sfx years ago no such com plete preparation for study had been made. If the threatening one mate rializes this spring the preparation that has been made should result In a number of important studies.
