It did not come into general use as a food until about 1870. Since that time many and types have be.ei produced. 2—Q. When was butter first made’? 2A. Butter has been in use from early historic days. It is first men tioned in the Bible, in Genesis 18:8, It Was used as food and medicine, as an ornament and for burning in lamps. The Greeks probably learned of it from the Scythians, or Thra cians, and the Romans from the Ger mans. It was jriade from the milk of sheep and goats, and later of cows, the method of making being to jar the milk roughly by placing it in skin bags or pouches hung over the backs of trotting horses. 3Q. How could the Old Testa ment be translated if there were no vowels in the Hebrew'? 3 -A. The translation of the text of the Old Testament is due to the work of a special guild of scholars, who, by many years of study and research were able to supply the original text with a system of and accents. This work is called the "Massorah.” 4Q. What is the geographic cen ter of North America? 4A. The geographic center of North America is in Minnesota. SQ. Do canaries know people, and do they like certain people? 5 A. There are many well authen ticated instances to prove that cana ries know and care for certain people, usually evincing joy at their presence with bursts of melody. 6Q. What is the meaning of the expression “a year and a day?” 6A. Under a peculiar rule of the common law, a fraction of a day was not recognized, and the last day of any given period of time was com pleted for legal purposes as soon as it began. Therefore, to provide for the actual expiration of a calendar year it was necessary to add a day. 7—4 J. When was the largest amount of revenue collected on intoxicating liquors in the United States. 7 A. In 1919 the amount collected was $483,000,000. This is the great est amount ever collected, and was largely due to the increased ,size of the tax x 8 — £j. What is meant by morganatic marriage? 8 — A. This is a marriage between a member of a reigning house, or of high nobility in some countries, and a person of inferior rank. Such a mar riage may not exist simultaneously with a "perfect” marriage, since the morganatic marriage is considered valid from an ecclesiastical and to some extent from a legal point of view. The roots of the morganatic marriage go back to early German law, and its chief disadvantage is that the parent of lower rank and children, born of the union, does not hold or succeed to public position or official estates. 9Q. What is the longest baseball game on record? 9A. The longest baseball game played in the major league was a twenty-two inning game between Brooklyn and Pittsburg, May 22, 1917. 10— Q. How many horses are there in the United States at present? 10—A. The bureau of crop esti mates says that on January 18, 1920, there were 21,709,000. CASTOR IA For Infants and Children IN USE FOR OVER 30 YEARS Always bears- Signature of Lnuxated IWSI iron raLlfeg Helps Make Strong, Sturdy Men and / Healthy, Beaulifu,, MO X Women MANY PLEAS ARE BEFORE CONGRESS FOR SOLDIERS’ AID WASHINGTON, April 24.—Con gress today finds that it is receiv ing more appeals for the passage of soldier aid legislation than for any other measure pending before it. Running a fairly close second, however, is a nation-wide demand that the bonus be refused and that taxes be reduced and repealed. It is held to be obvious that congress cannot grant the latter appeal, if it passes the soldier aid bill. These two outstanding indications as to what the American people want were revealed today by a sum mary of the petitions recorded in the congressional record since April 1. During that time thirty-eight peti tions, mostly from soldier organiza tions, were filed urging immediate enactment of legislation to aid the 'service men. In the same period, protests against the soldier bill and any increase in taxes totaled 27. Os this number, eight were denuncia tions of the bonus, 14 were demands for general reductions in taxes and five asked the repeal of the excess profits levies. Disapproval of universal military training ran third in the summary of petitions, with a total of 15, while the number urging the Wads worth bill, which contained such a program was seven. There are fourteen petitions for amnesty toward political prisoners and eleven for the freedom of Ire land or the recognition of a repub lic in that country. The record shows one petition ask ing for an amendment to the Vol stead law allowing sale of light beer and wine. Protests against the high cost of living numbers seven. The senti ment of the country on other ques tions may be indicated by the fol low! ng numbers of petitions. $50,000 DRIVE - IN ALABAMA FOR STORM VICTIMS BIRMINGHAM, Ala., April 24. While Red Cross workers were mak ing tabulated lists of the dead and injured and estimating property dam age wrought by the tornado last Tuesday, plans for relief took defi nite shape today with the formal launching of a drive for the collec tion of $50,000. On account of the difficulty of reaching the more isolated sections of the storm stricken area, it will be two or three days before final figures can be obtained on the havoc caused by the great storm, accord ing to J. K. Brockman, chairman of the Jefferson county chapter of the Red Cross, with headquarters in Birmingham. In the meantime reports at the office of Governor Kilby have been taken as the basis on which the ap peal for funds has been issued. These reports place the deAd at 78 and the injured at 500. Information at the office of Gov ernor Russell, of Mississippi, shows 150 killed and 200 injured in that state, according to Lieutenant-Gov ernor Casteel. The loss in live stock and property has grown with the progress of the investigation and may exceed the $2,- 000,000 mark. With the receipt of supplies from Birmingham, New Orleans and other cities, emergency relief work is well in hand at Hamilton, Ala., and Me ridian, Miss., the central points of the storm areas in the two states. Taft Eliminates Self As Possible Candidate Os G.O.P. for President CHICAGO, April 24.—William Howard Taft, former president, has eliminatedw himself definitely from the Republica npresidential race, according to a letter written by him to David Herriott, retired newspaper publisher, announced here tonight. Mr. Taft’s letter was in answer to an appeal from Mr. Herriott to en ter the Republican" presidential race in support of the peace treaty. The letter to Herriott, which was sent from Augusta, Ga., read as fol lows: "I have yours of March 20 and am glad to know you feel as I do in respect to the treaty. Your sugges tion of a remedy I value as a com pliment, but not as a ossible solu tion. My attitude towards the treaty has put such a proposal out of the ring of practical possibilities. Ap preciating your good will, believe me, I am, “Sincerelv yours, "WILLIAM H. TAFT.” Mr. Herriott’s letter, wl’itten the day following the senate’s rejection of the treaty, suggested Mr. Taft again become a presidential candi- COTTON NEW YORK, April 26. —The development of unfavorable weather conditions in the belt over Sunday led' to a violent advance in the cotton market here during today’s early trading. Cables were lower than due and the opening price was 10 points lower for May, but the tone was firm, 'with later months 17 to 55 points higher on active cov ering inspired by the bullish weather and crop advices. July soon sold up to 38.50 c and October to 35.45 c, or 87 to 95 points above Saturday's closing. Showers in the southwest were considered beneficial, but cool 1 rains in the central belt, with pros pects that they would spread eastward, caused increased anxiety over the new crop outlook. Realizing became more active around 38.90 for July and 35.68 for October, or about 97 to 118 points above Saturday’s closing quotations. Reactions of 25 or 30 points followed, but trade interests were buyers, while there was continued cover ing and the market became less active, but held steady during the early afternoon. A private cable from Liverpool reported a quiet market there owing to dullness in Man chester. It also said heavy tenders were expected at the end of the month and that both finance an dwarehouse room was tight. The market showed increasing strength after the publication of detailed weather reports which showed heavy rain in central belt sections, and the advance was stimu lated by private reports of further rain east of the Mississippi. July sold up to 38.94 c and October to 35.98 c, or 101 to 148 points net higher. NEW YORK COTTON The following were the ruling prices tn lhe exchange today: Tone, steady; middling, 42c, quiet.

The buying went ahead in the face of rains in Oklahoma and Texas over Sunday, which W'ere ac cepted as relieving most of the droughty area. General opinion seemed to be that the effect of these rains was more than bal anced by the injurious effect of rains in the central and eastern portions of the belt. In the first hour of business prices advanced 100 to 107 points, July rising to 38.77 and October to 35.35. The forecast of colder weather in the western half of the belt and of more show ers in the eastern belt increased the de mand to large proportions and the new crop months became much stronger than the old. Late in the morning December was the sttrongest month in the list and stood 141 points up at 34.71. Other active months were 100 to 132 up, July not getting above the early high price of 38.77. Buyers found the ring poorly supplied with contracts. ' The storm warning for the Texas coast and private reports of snow falling in some portions of Oklahoma made the market more excited and active than ever and forced prices to advances of 130 to 168 points, where December stood at 34.98 c. Late in the session there was sufficient realizing from the lon gside to cause recessions of 20 to 30 points from the topmost levels.

UNDERWOOD LEFT UNOPPOSED AS SENATE LEADER WASHINGTON, April 24.—As a result of the withdrawal of Senator Hitchcock, of Nebraska, from the contest for the Democratic leadership in the senate, it was believed gener ally among - party leaders today that the selection of Senator Underwood, of Alabama, for the post would be unopposed when the Democratic con ference is held Tuesday night. Sen ators Hitchcock and Underwood were the only candidates and the race was so close that a deadlock existed for several months. The Nebraska senator announced his decision to withdraw last night in a letter to the members of his party in the senate. "I now desire to terminate thisi deadlock,” wrote Senator Hitchcock,! “and hereby withdraw my name from! the contest. This will conduce to] Democratic harmony and will accord] with my individual plans, which will] not permit me during the remainder of the year to undertake such con tinuous service in the senate as I have had during the past twelve months. * “The year during which I have ; acted as Democratic leader has been 1 one of responsibility and difficulty | but one of pleasure also, because of I the consideration shown me by party] colleagues, whethei- they agreeed] with me or not. -i “I desire particularly to thank! those who have supported me in this! contest and to say to all that I shall be glad, in resuming my position as 1 vice chairman, to co-operate as here tofore with the chosen leader.” Senator Hitchcock’s friends ex plained that the presidential cam paign would take the senator away from Washington at intervals aneffi that aside from this he would make 1 Classified Advertisements WANTEDHELF—Maf. ~~~ RAILWAY Traffic Inspectors earn from sllO to S2OO per month and expenses.
