Gentlemen: I wish to take thle opportunity to tell you what I think ot your Edge-Wort- h Plug Slice Tobacco. I have been a pipe amoker for about 18 years and during that time heve naturally tried many different brande and blenda of tobacco. I could not eeem to find an ideal blend until about lx months ago when, at the euggee-tio- n of a friend, I tried a pipe of Edgeworth Plug Slice. X have been a constant user of Edge-( worth lines and can truthfully aay that "Day by Ny in every way Edgeworth is getting better and better." You have my permission to use this letter in any way you may desire if by so doing it will enable other pipe smokers to find a really cool, enjoyable and perfectly satisfactory man smoke. I beg to remain, Edgeworthlly yours. AL F. Whitlock. We are Indeed glad Edgeworth haa given Mr. Whitlock such unqualified satisfaction, but we fee I obliged to side- step his sugges- tion that "day by day in every way Edgeworth is getting better and better." Oar constant aim is quite to the contrary. Just as it Is, Edgeworth thoupleases ' t Warm Weather Every Means Must Be Taken to Prevent Contamination. sands and thousands of pipe smokers throughout the country. If we should try to "improve" Edgeworth or change it in the least, we might be doing an injustice to the men who have smoked Edgeworth for years and years and who expect to find it always the same good smoking tobacco. And so we hope Mr. Whitlock will agree with us that, all things considered, it is best for us to go on making more of the same Edgeworth. To add to our list of friends we are always glad to riend free samples to anyone who cares to send us his name and address. Just drop us a postcard and we shall immediately forward to you generous helpings of both Edgeworth Plug Slice add Ready-Rubbe- d.

Farmers in many sections of the country-havrecognized the scrub bull to be as great an obstacle to progress as bovine tuberculosis, have placed him in the same class, and the two are being drlyen out together. The state of West Virginia Is making' a strong drive against both. On January 1, 1923, approximately 8,000 herds in the state, containing 35,000 cattle, were under supervision for the eradication of bovine tuberculosis. On that date a law went Into effect making it unlawful to use the scrub bull, stallion. Jack, boar or ram which Is not purebred, for public service for pay. As evidence of sentiment In support of the law, in one day recently the bureau of animal Industry of the United States Department of Agriculture received enrollments from 100 live stock owners In West Virginia who placed their live stock operations on a strictly purebred basis by enrolling In Better Sires Better the natlqn-wld- e Stock campaign.

The curved, entrance does not need to be large to 'be bene-' ficial. Simply filling and rounding the groove at the. bell end of a vitrified pipe with cement mortar will Increase the capacity. The same result can be secured with any kind of pipe by placing the end a few Inches back from well-know- i the face of the head wall Instead of setting It flush and rounding the conencrete so as to form a trance. Such an arrangement is particularly effective when the entrance to the cnlvert Is submerged and greater capacity Is needed. From actual tests made on a pipe flowing full of water it was found that the bell end of a sewer pipe at the entrance increased the capacity 10 per cent over that of a pipe of the d ensame size with a trance. Filling In the bell end and rounding to an elliptical shape with mortar caused an additional flow of 2 per cent or 12 per cent more than the entrance.
