Lancaster Away Up in
Agriculture Again
Pennsylvania pushed into high
rank among the corn-raising states
and took first place as a producer
of buckwheat in 1919 and took out
a crop ,of more than 28,556,200
bushels in .spite of pests and adverse
weather and labor conditions. Fig
ures issued to-day by Secretary of
Agriculture Fred Rasmussen show
an unusually good yield of potatoes
and records in corn and buckwheat.
The value of the crops will run
higher in the millons '/ia*i ever
known before.

Silas S. Riddle, recently appointed

Labor and Industry, has arranged
for the start of the survey required
by the act establishing the bureau
and the reports of accidents filed
with the offices of the Workmen's
Compensation Bureau in this city
will be utilized. Special attention is
to be given at the start to the rail
road, steel, coal and other industries
where the largest percentage of ac
cidents occur and cases will be se
lected for trying out the scheme in
the new law. Mr. Riddle having
made a study of accidents and re

ii for State permits for
i -i of bridges which has
H-A-RRJSBUTtG TELEGRAPH
been such u feature of the work of I
the Pennsylvania Water Supply Com
mission the last nine months appears
to be over, as very few such papers
are being filed these days. The
Commission at its last meeting
authorized only one bridge. Permits
have been given for the construction
of walls and making of creek
changes for coal companies in sev
eral western counties and for the
Victory Park Commission of Lewis
town to build a retaining wail and
make fills in creating a park in mem
ory of overseas men.
In the next few months the State
Public Service Commission will hand
down decisions apportioning costs in
construction work that will elimi
nate a score of grade crossings and
involve many thousands of dollars.
Some of the projects alone involve
between $150,000 and $200,000 and
a few even more. These cases have
been argued and the only question is
apportioning costs and the time for
starting construction.
Inspection of units by Federal of
ficers for Incorporation into the new
Pennsylvania National Guard will be
started the latter part of this month,
according to present expectations at
the Capitol. In a number of com
munities companies have been
formed for presentation to the com
manding officers of regiments and
following appointment of field offi
cers, which is expected to follow
the visit of Major General W. G.
Price, the commanding general, here
this week more will be organized.
Divisional and brigade staffs will
I soon be formed. Many former serv
ice men are enrolling in the new
companies.
Tims far comparatively few hunt
ing accidents have been reported to
the State Game authorities consider
ing the large number of hunters in
the field. State Game protectors 1
have been instructed to investigate I
all serious accidents and to make I
reports. The small game season has |
entered upon its last fortnight, as
hunting of almost everything except j
deer, whose season opens December i
1; bear, rabbits and raccoons, will :
close on November 30.
Detailed reports on health eondi- :
tions in Pennsylvania during the ;
first half of November show 225 cases
of diphtheria, a marked decline:,
from the same period of October
There have been reported 94 cases
of scarlet fever, 6 4 cases of typhoid
fever, 178 of measles, 177 of chicken- j
pox and much whooping cough. The
latter three diseases have shown in

The State Compensation Board
finished hearings in the anthracite
region Saturday.
"No act of the widow could
in any way prejudice the rights of
the children," rules the State
Compensation Board in Gass vs.
Aetna Chemical Co., a Pittsburgh
case. The widow of a deceased em
ploye married, but did not appear 1
to have reported the fact and re
ceived compensation for the death ,
of the first husband for several 1
months after her second marriage. '
The compensation was ordered
stopped in her case, but the second
I marriage could not change the status
of the children as claimants. The
board has ordered new hearings in
Marsh vs. Vinton Colliery Co., Vin
tondale; Rendt vs. Wheeler, Rey
noldsville; Runioid vs. GiUen, Phila
delphia. In Bodner vs. Berwind-
White Mining Co., Windber, the
board says that it has "no power to
graduate an award in proportion to
the loss of vision." The board dis
allowed the claim of Gandolfi vs. ;
Rosenthal, Pittsburgh, holding that .
the claimant was not an employe at !
the time of the accident, ana d s
missed the petition in Alvano vs. 1

Big Erie Gas Case
to Be Determined
The Public Service Commission |
has fixed December 15 as the time |
for the argument in the complaints i
of the cities of Erie and Corry j
against the new rate schedule of the !
Pennsylvania Gas Company which ;
will bring nearer determination the j
big questions of natural gas supply |
in Northern Pennsylvania. The ef- I
fective date of the new rate schedule,
which would revolutionize things in I
that section of the State as far as .
rates are concerned, has been post- |
poned until January 20, and mean- |
while the Commission will digest the i
findings of its engineers and ac
countants and hear argument. The j
decision will have wide effect in the
natural gas regions.
Anotlier interesting matter sched-j
uled for December is the action in
stituted by the Commission against !
the Punxsutawney and Lindsay!
water companies which are charged '
with failing to provide the service I
ordered. This grows out of a re- j
fusal of the Commission to author- '
lze certain changes in water service j
for the Punxsutawney district and j
the companies may be compelled to i
do as directed in the way of substan
tial improvements.

Workman's "Luckstone"
Is a SIOO,OOO Ruby
Omaha, Neb., Nov. 17. A "luck
stone," carried by John Mibok, a
Russian laborer, for the last twenty
years, has turned out to be a pigeon
blood ruby, the largests of its kind
in the world, weighing twenty-four
carats and valued at more than
SIOO,OOO.
Some time ago a friend of Niholt
suggested that he show the stone to
a jeweler and find out if it was worth
anything because of its unusual col
oring. The jeweler, after examin
ing it, advised that it be sent to a
Chicago gem expert fOT inspection.
There its real value was discovered
at once.
