Hickory Record. Men and women who have lived' through a period of some 35 or 40 years and especially those who are able to recall the vears following the civil war find it difficult to complain at high prices and these times. Mr, McLendon in his sermon the. other night observed that poor white peo ple and colored folks lived hard just after the civil war, and he uttered a truth that needs no substantiation at this late day. Mr. J. A. Bowles was looking over some old papers the other morning i when a Record reporter was present, i He commented on cheap prices 301 years ago, though Mr. Bowles can re call farther oack than that. Along in the late 70s and 80s, men worked long hours for little money and the profit of manufacturers were low. A boy would carrv a note two miles for a nickel and plod thro.ueh mud or sand. Mr. Bowles said he preferred these present times, when everybody has more than those considered well off had 30 years ago. We can remember when a good' sized boy could earn little more than 16J cents a day and he remained on the job until he learned to be thorough before he got much more. Fifty cents .a day was a vision. We can also remember hearing the- ex pression that this and that person puts “everything on his back,” mean ing that more attention was paid. to appearances than to saving money for a rainy day. People look on rapid spenders as guilty of offenses against society. It wasn’t popular. Our first milk shake—chocolate, it was—tasted, mighty good and opened up anew vision. Foryears and years trilore that, penny lemonade aud sherbet that was ground off at a cent a cup had been our chief indulgence, though ice cream at Sunday school picnics was the real thing. Picnics did not come often. Very feW people had much money in those days and folks were com pelled to apply the brakes. Some of Hickorv’s successful business men have worn their father’s old trousers made over by several pairs of pants. Economy was a necessity; The mer chant also lived closer and a cent a yard profit was a good hope. If there is anybody in the United States who can’t get along now it is his own fault; it was not the case in other years—both ends simply would not meet for many people. We are recalling these things be* cause there is a lot of unrest in this country, most of it on the part of people who are unwijling to buckle down and make an honest living. We don't pretend to say that there is any considerable number of such people in North Carolina—and the number is very small in Hickory—but there Working Harder There. I Mr. Vauclain declares Europe is working-harder than America. One hour more work each day for everybody t for the next six months would knock prices of Iiv ing down by at least a third. • That extra hour, would actually, ‘‘feed the hungry and clothe the poor. ” It would cut our rent rates, reduce our taxes and cheapen in terest rates. Qur farmers and their unpaid children and wives are the only class in the United States who still worlg as they did a decade ago. The rest of us-work fewer hours a day ^nd strike fewer blows each hour we do work.1 Barring the American farmers and their riiillioon of unpaid chil dren and overworked wives,; who sweat to keep our food prices down, all the rest of the people in the United. States who work at all do not 'average more than forty-two. hours a week. , - Tile old rule was to work a third of the time, sleep a third and play a third. Now you can easily figure, out for yourself that if America does a business of over $90,000,000,- 000 in a year, which it does, by working one hour-in four, what it coulcf do were it to return to our daddy’s program and toil one hour in three. ” - It is no credit to have no credit. An old m ass’s idea of a good baby is an absent baby. . Service Men May Vote. TheioIiowing letter to all county board* of-elections has been sent out from the attorney general’s office at Raleigh. This letter answers a ques tion which ' has- been asked quite often,;, this year, as to whether or not men who were in service, at the time of listing property in 1919 should, be allowed to vote without having, paid their 1919 poll tax. The letter is from the attorny gener al of the state that his office has ruled that men who were in the. ser vice on the first day ol May, 1919, may vote without their poll tax re ceipt. The letter from the attorney gen-1 eral follows: “Thia.Qffi.ee has ruled, with refer ence to -soldiers weo were in France or Cerinany or in service in the vari ous camps thruout the. country at the time for listing poll tax in 1919 that they may vote without paying the poll tax-for 1919. “These soldiers, either by their sense of obligation to their native country, or by the complusion of the fetTeraI government, were in the ir service to that country, placed in such a position that they could neithj er list nor pay these taxes’ It would it seems to us, be manifestly inequi table arid unjust to deprive them of their right to vote under such cir cumstances.’’ (Signed) JAMES S.'

Mrs. Sharp on the Stump. Mrs Mary Sharp has begun . her campaign as the Republican candi date for Superintendent of Public Instruction. Her speech in Mon- nOther ore a few days ago he put on Fonrteen Reasons. ' A local merchant has a good custo mer who had overlooked a bill for a small amount, so in sending out a- roe delivered on Tuesday Jiuie 1, was by reporters to be non-partisan but thoroughly political. She earn estly appealed to the citizens of North Carolina to give woman the light of suffrage but expressed the belief that North Carolina will not have the honor of casting the decid ing vote on the 19th amendment as in her opinion Lousiana will settle that question before the North Car olina Legislature will convene. The speaker also proved to her own satisfaction as well as apparently that of a majorry of those who heard her, that those states that have adopted, woman suffage have made more progress than those ‘that have, declined to give the woman the right to vote. Her speech was said to have been very effective and put several of her hearers on the mourners bench. There is 110 probability that she and her opponent will meet in joint debate, but if they should, we would have a fine example of courtesy and gentility between two opposing candidates. Since we are to have woman suffrage, we hope to live to hear a discussion between the can didates of opposite sex. It would help to make political discussion a little more respectable and eliminate personalities, which would, be a great blessing.—Charity and Chil dren. AGentleHint.

Battle Creek, Michigan H K ra SUCCESS IN RAISING SQUABS •Opportunity Is Well Worth Consider ing for Those Who Have Lofts— Produce Meat Quickly. The ba*ek yard poultry keeper can hardly hope for success with turkeys, geese, ducks or guineas, but for those ■who have lofts over a garage, stable, or coal shed, the opportunity for squab growing is well worth considering. For food purposes pigeons are usu ally classed with poultry. Culturally they are In a class by themselves, pro ducing meat only, producing it very quickly, and able to produce well un der conditions that do not admit of growing any other creature used for food. While the ideal arrangement for pigeons is to have their house on the ground, and a small covered yard, called a “fly,” connecting with it, pigeon keeping may be carried on quite extensively In upper rooms or lofts, with or without open-air flys. Many flocks of pigeons are kept in large cities in quarters provided for them in the lofts or on the roofs of buildings used for mercantile and man ufacturing purposes. A space six feet square and high enough for the attendant to stand erect will accommodate eight to ten pairs of pigeons for squab breeding, the poultry specialists in the United States department of agriculture say. The birds mate and begin breeding when six to seven months old. The male shares with the hen the duty of incubation. The young hatch In about 17 days. At four weeks old, average squabs will weigh about three- quarters of a.pound each. Some of the larger ones will weigh over a pound at that age. A good pair of breeders will produce six or seven or more pairs of squabs a PLAN TO CARRY LIVE FOWLS Bird Wrapped in Cornucopia of News papers and Given Plenty of Air Is Quite Content. Carrying live fowls In a cornucopia of newspapers, In the manner of car rying a bouquet, is a good idea. The bird is laid down on the paper and the legs straightened out on a line with the tail; the wings are held in position at the sides. The newspaper is then rolled around the bird, making a cornucopia, and the lower end is twisted, which' leaves the upper end open. When carrying the bird In this manner, the twisted end of the cornu copia Is held in the hand, allowing the roll to rest on the arm. The bird has plenty- of air and seemingly is content In Its peculiar position. PURE BREEDS ARE PAMPERED Supposition That Common Fowls Are Most Hardy Is Erroneous—Only Strongest Survive. The supposition that common fowls are hardier than pure breeds is not borne out by the facts. Those who hatch chicks of the common kinds lose a large number of them, only the strongest surviving, and every year they are more and more Inbred. The pure breeds, suffer from being pam pered by their owners In many In stances, In . which cases they do not compare favorably with common fowls. SMALL START FOR BEGINNER Safest Plan for- Those About to Em- bark In Poultry Business—Many Hard Problems. The safest way . for those who are about to make their first attempt at poultry ,raising Is to start in a small way with a few fowls and learn the business thoroughly before making latge investments. Mistakes will be made.and many difficult problems will be presented 4>r solution before suc cess In any Iiage measure will be at tained. False Claims. W e hope there is no Mother who thinks she can treat her sick baby without calling in a Physician, or with remedies that she uses for herself. Most Mothers know that Baby requires remedies especially prepared for babies, yet there are some who think that what is good enough for them is good enough for Baby, and it is to these Mothers we appeal to give nothing to their babies that is not specially prepared for babies or recommended by their Physician.

His mind was a blank until his car was turning in and out through the mesh of traffic in State street The newsboys, ever vo ciferous at the day’s end, seemed to liave an unwonted note of excitement In their hoarse cries of “Extra!” De layed at Monroe street by a policeman Mt the crossing, he tossed the news- rcndor on the corner a quarter-dol- Iar and ordered all the papers. The first one he opened was a pink-and- SiIaek sheet, damp from the press, and feiazlng on Its first page this: WOMAN WOULD KILL RUSSIAN ENVOY. DIES BY OWN HAND. This much he read In one hurried glance. What followed he devoured In snatches, getting the gist of the mat ter In a minute's perusal: “Esther Strom . . . Anarchist plot . . . Assassinate ambassador . . . B. & 0. station . . . Secret Service . . . Swallowed prussic acid . . . Found dead In cell." CHAPTER XII. T Fltzhugh awakened next morning to Oie ringing of his telephone. It was .Hunt. He cut short tlie flood of ques tions, and, still in his pajamas, got a small valise from a closet and began Oiling It with shirts, collars, and such other articles as a man needs for a short journey. When he reached his office, for twen ty galvanic minutes, without a wasted word, he outlined concisely what he wanted done during his absence, con sidering and settling various problems that In the interim might arise. Per ceiving the flight of time, he snatched Hs hat from the floor, and, with Hunt trotting along beside, hurried to the elevator, still giving directions and ad- Ylce. Down the elevator shaft, through the rotunda of the first floor, to the automobile In Adams street, and thence to the railway station, he con tinued the terse counseling. As he dashed into the Grand Central station, ran down the midway toward his gate, the conductor called “ "Board I” and his train pulled . out He caught the last Pullman as it BigjSSl trmn the shed. Pitzliugh returned from Washington Id four days, a changed man. There been little he could do; so little, Sufeed, that he felt his trip had been <raste& He had located some mem bers. of Esther’s fgmSly and had given Uiemv quite anonymously, a sum of motuey larger than any Uiey had ever ttnwwn. Then he took a train for Cht- ettgo. There wa3 nothing to dp. Bat he could not forget Vividly Bgninst the background of his mind were marshaled all Esther had done Sw Him, g]l her little acts of kindness, fitr unselfishness, but doglike devotion. Aad then he would Uiink of the re quital he had made. His memory flogged him pitilessly. He thought of bow he had left her alone with Niko lay that morning, of his Incompassion- ateness the last time he saw her alive, of the death-dealing message he bad sent, the needless cruelty . ’ . . “Brute!—I was always a brute to her. . . It was nearly eleven reached his office. He had come di rectly from his apartment in bis auto mobile, and wore a motoring cap and coat, unessentials both, the last of which effectually concealed all ap parel beneath it from the collar down. Hunt, coatless and with his shirt sleeves rolled to his elbows, sat at the great flat-topped desk in the inner sanctum, head over heels In the day's work. With a brief excuse for his tardi ness, Fitzhugh took the chair at the opposite side of the desk and scanned some Important papers requiring his signature, conversing busily with Hunt as he read. He had slgned'but one of them, when, with an ejaculation upon the warmth of the weather, he flung off his cap, and loosening the clasps of his coat collar, walked into the adja cent room. IB a few minutes he reappeared-; and, having discarded the motoring duster, he was outwardly transformed. Snow-white ducks, white outing slip pers. 'vitli silken hosiery 'shimmering ,-i,. '--.Ved, a soft whitfl shirt. when he through the attached collar of which was looped a voluminous tie of blood- red hue. a crush hat, white as nn Easter lily, turned up in front and down behind and encircled by a crim son ribbon—these made up his attire. "You look Uke the epitome of a comic opera,” Hunt !auglied, aside from the phone. “Whither away? Yachting?” "No,” replied FItzhugh1 appending his signature to the rest of the papers. “No, I’m not going yachting.” He put down his pen, picked up his cane, stood up. “I’m going into the pit.” “But what the—" Hunt, who. had half-risen from his chair, sank back, bewildered. “What the dickens do you want to expose your hand for, Dan?” Daniel showed his teeth in an odd grin. For an instant it somehow sug gested to the other something sinister —like a wolf baring its fangs. "Better come along and watch me. Hunt,"—starting toward the door, “I’m going to give ’em something to talk about. Coming?” He waited at the door, flapping his cane against his im maculate trousers. And this day began a spectacular flourish of showy histrionics unrivaled before or since on the Chicago Board of Trade. During the rest of the day’s session In the wheat pit, Fitzhugh, the actor, was the center of all attraction. The visitors In the gallery remarked him and pointed him out to one anoth er; the speculators, dealers, brokers' clerks, officers of the board, all those whose duties brought them on the “floor,” soon or late found their atten tion directed toward him. His extreme height, emphasizing his unusual garb, rendered him strikingly conspicuous among his fellows. Of them all he was the only one who stood out dis tinctly. He was the only one of his sort The dramatic scene comported with him. He was in his native ele ment. This was the moment he had dreamed of long ago when he had stood up yonder in the visitors’ gallery, his whole being keyed to the martial pitch of gold that screamed to him from tlie battlefield. But how different tlie realization! None of those who clamored about him, chafing him, seeking to take ad vantage of what seemed to them a mental aberration, knew he was being tortured by a ghost. The ghost of a I “What the Dickens Do You Want to Expose Your Hand For, Dan?" woman of raven hair and olive skin and sad, accusing eyes that ever re proached Mm, that ever seemed to say: “You were cruel, Daniel—al ways cruel.” They did- not know that when often he gesticulated to no end, or that when he thundered his loudest and appeared most abandoned to the feverish excitement of the pit, the up- braidings of Hie ghost were' cutting him to the quick, were lashing him the hardest ******* As the days passed FItzhugh’s pas sion for "showing off” Increased amaz ingly. Ever prolific with freaks of act- ipg, he kept his associates on tenter hooks of curosity. None could Imag- fee what he would do next He al ways did the unexpected. Nothing was too fantastical. Once during a Saturday noonhour he started a furore In the rotunda of the board of trade by striding through the crowd playing boisterously on a mouth-organ, while round him capered several monkeys, borrowed from some Forquer street Italians; anon at a dinner In his apart ment one evening he received his guests in war paint and feathers and the full regalia of an Indian chieftain. Yet those who knew him intimately —as Hunt and two or three others— were not long In notlclng a change .had come over him. When he thought he was unobserved he was given to’long periods of brooding, and, as they right ly supposed, all his.bizarrerie was not the real Fitzhugh, but- only a mask, all Ws theatrical excitement not genu ine, butonly a cloak tot an inner un- bappiness. ---.S. '• tt was during one at these dart periods that he stole secretly away— not even Hunt ,knew of his where abouts—and for nearly a week was un seen in Chicago. Tlie day he returned he went to his safety deposit vault and locked therein a packet of papers. These papers, obtained at great price and with commensurate difficulty, were the deeds to the Fitzrandoiph home stead in Maryland....................And still he was not happy. Still there remained the void, the dull gap he could not fill. Time and again during Iiis first year of grief Fitzhugh had endeavored, with characteristic audacity, to se# Kathleen, but always substantially In vain. He had followed her to New port, whence she flew with her moth er after the rupture, found she had .cajletl..the day before for Switzerland, had taken the next steamer, only to miss her again, and for three months had played battledore-and-shnttlecock with two defenseless women over the major part of the continent, often stay ing in the same hotel, yet never catch ing more than a fleeting glimpse of the o»e he loved. All efforts at communication were likewise fruitless. His letters were re turned unopened. His gifts, too. Wlien they returned home in the autumn he had ordered a box of violets delivered to KatWeen every morning. The florist was an honest man, and at the month’s end he had rendered a bill only for carriage. But Fitzhugh died hard. Vor three years he never gave up trying. Then the last gleam of hope flickered out. She was abroad most of the time now, returning to Chicago only at rare intervals, and then but for a brief stay. He heard that Artie Sparkle was often with her, and sometimes at the club there were rumors of— But he laughed loudly at these. He refused to listen. The idea was pre posterous—absurd. Yet it was never theless true that this gossip of Kath leen’s engagement to Artie immediate ly preceded some extraordinary per formance that kept the name of Fitz hugh on the lips of thousands for weeks afterward. As another man would have turned to drink, so he turned to stagey extravagance. Un- conventionality was his. dissipation, and in his own way he became intoxi cated. Some four yeaxs after that day In June—four years in which he had seen Kathleen less than a score of times and had spoken to her leas than thrice : —Fitzhugh laid the foundation of the throne upon which he was to reign for ! a brief but blazing period as King of Wheat. These four years had bred an ; unwholesome change, in the man. The amassing of gold had become his re ligion. Its virus had entered his soul. He allowed nothing to stand between, crushing all opposition with an iron hand. Everything was subservient to but one end, and that end was Money. AU his faculties, all his tireless energy and zeal and ambition were concen trated upon it. Waking or asleep, the thought of It was always uppermost Hunt, in the erratic meanwhile, had courageously piloted the deserted ship, knowing its rightful captain would again take the helm when “he came to himself.” More than any other, Henry Hunt enjoyed the full confidence of his chief. He was one of the very few who knew Fitzhugh’s real name and family history. At irregularly recurring periods Fitzhugh entered the wheat pit, and while these instances were generally emblazoned with a burst of histrion ics, he was never for a second' blinded by the glare. When he seemed most ebullient he was really most cool-head ed. He fooled the pit traders. They could never quite penetrate his “bluff ing.” They perceived his propensity for posing, and made the mistake of thinking him too self-centered to be alive to his surroundings. While they were pitying him for his rawness, his crudities, and confidently expecting his downfall, he would astonish them by executing some brilliant coup that sug gested deep-laid plans as splendid as his daring. When in the conflict of the pit every fiber of his being was quiverlngly alert. Seemingly absorbed in thinking of himself and the effect of his pos tures, he was searching his opponents’ faces for the slightest trace of mean ing. Not a tremor of that higgledy- piggledy turmoil escaped him. Ear and eye were quick to grasp every variation. He was instantly alive to every trick, every subterfuge. He was swift to seize upon the merest open ing, swift, to attack the first unprotect ed spot He was the shrewdest of them all, and he played a game none SouTd understand. Outwardly, the rreenest of bunglers at it, secretively he maneuvered with a master hand. It was In the winter of this yeat that Fitzhugh went deepest into the wheat pit. He plunged in farther and farther, and with such apparent reck lessness that many times Hunt heW back, counseling a slower and more cautious gait.: But the leader was ob durate. He would listen to no advice. He rushed yet deeper into the pit, dragging his hesitating follower with him.

Oir.;. “::n- O1.'u peach Sizing Machine—Fruit Can Be Carried Along by Conveyors Which Are Adjusted to Carry the Largest Fruit to the End, Whence It Drops Into the Apron in the Foreground. This year a part of the peach crop may be better graded at less expense than heretofore by use of a new sizer developed by government workers. Two machines were built last year and test ed under commercial conditions at Leesburg, Va., and Mayfield, Ga. In formation gained through these tests was used in perfecting the present machine, drawings of which are now available to all growers or manufac turers interested, according to an nouncement by the bureau of markets. The machine has several unique fea tures and advantages over existing types of sizers which make it possible to handle fruit with less bruising, •rhile its construction permits 10 to 15 packers to work at one time, thus mak ing possible a run of two to three car loads of peaches a day from each ma chine, the amount depending on tlie average quality of the fruit. The over all dimensions of the machine are 24x15 feet. It requires an electric motor of less than one horsepower ca pacity, or a small gas engine, to ope rate it, and it can be run at half ca pacity if desired. Under commercial conditions it should be sold at a price not to exceed $450, according to esti mates of the designers. How It Works. The peaches from the orchard are delivered on an inclined roller convey or, on each side of which sorters stand and pick out culls and damaged fruit. The rotation of the peaches on this conveyor, which is obtained without bruising, enables tlie sorters to see the entire surface of the fruit without touching it. From this roller convey or the peaches are delivered to two sets of ropes running over pulleys. A simple lever arrangement permit!^ the adjustment of the spaces between these ropes to accommodate any size fruit It is desired trr grade. Altliough the ropes diverge from each other un der ordinary operating conditions. they may be set nearly parallel to facilitate the distribution into the bins of fruit which runs almost uniform in size. This control is made possible by a perfected hat rack movement which is one of the unique features of this machine. As the peaches come off tlie roller conveyor they roll down a slight in cline to the ropes on which they travel until dropped through into canvas bins. It is impossible to congest the machine because the peaches are fed one at a time to the moving ropes. Some objections to former rope sizers have been overcome through the use of a special coupling device, an idler which serves to keep the proper ten sion on the ropes and the mechanism which quickly widens or reduces the space between the ropes. The machine, which was devised particularly for six- basket carrier packing, can be used equally well for bushel packs with a slight modification of the bins. Possibilities for 'Other Fruits. In announcing the perfected ma chine, which is the work of tl.e grades and standards project and the tech nological laboratory of tlie bureau of markets, it is stated that the machine has possibilities for grading other fruits such as apples, pears and or anges, while it may be .possible to modify it to handle sweet potatoes. An application for a public patent on this sizer is pending in the patent office, but the department can give no assurance that a patent will be al lowed on the machine or that some of the elements covered by tlife applica tion are not already protected by ex isting patents. The bureau has applied for patents on parts of the machine in order to make them available to ali, and is ready to furnish a set of work ing drawings to growers or manufac turers for $2 , which is Intended to cover merely the cost of labor and materials.

BEST OF AnENTION Don’t Put Away Rake and Hoe Too Early in Season. Surface of Soft Should Be Lightly Stirred and Kept Mellow—Finely Sifted Manure Scattered Over Seeds Is Excellent. (Prepared by the TJnIted S tates D epart m ent of A griculture.) Here Is a message for the tillers of the thousands of home gardens al ready planted In cities and the smaller towns, and other thousands in process of being planted. Let every gardener remember that his work of food pro duction is only begun. Many amateurs make the mistake of putting away the rake and hoe as soon as they have the seeds In the ground. The surface of the ground should be lightly stirred with a rake and kept mellow before the seeds come up. Often a week or so of extremely dry weather comes after garden planting. This is liable to cause many of the smaller seeds to fail to germinate, or, If they germ inate, they may not have enough moisture to keep them alive. There are two or three ways of pre venting loss. One is to use the sprink ling can and keep the surface lightly watered until the seeds are up. An other Is to lay a board directly over the row of seeds until they sprout and are just about ready to come through the ground. It does cot do, however, to leave the boards over the row too long, as the little seedlings on coming up against the boards will be bent out of shape and weakened. Still another method is to scatter a Uttle fine, sifted manure. Here, also, care must be taken that the cover ing Is not too heavy, or the seedlings will be Injured when they come through the ground. A steel rake is one of the best tools for cultivating the garden, because it loosens the top inch or two of the soli. Before the plants are up, break the surface ever so gently over the rows, with the rake. After the plants appear, use the rake frequently along each side of the row to keep the soil loose and mellow. I AVOID OVERCROWDING CHICKS One of Leading Causes of Range Losses During Summer Months— Fresh Air Is Needed. During the hot summer months the greater part of the trouble experienced on poultry plants is found on the ranges where the growing stock Is kept. According to the poultry de partment of the New Jersey agricul tural experiment station one of the leading causes of range losses during the summer is the overcrowding of the birds. There should be a suffici ent number of colony houses to ac commodate the birds. The colony houses are used by the young birds at night, and if they are forced to crowd together, serious results will occur. Chicks need a large amount of fresh air In order to keep growing constantly. If crowded at night they are forced to breathe the same air time after time, a condition which re sults In stunted growth and invites disease. Colony houses with from 50 to 75 birds In each provide much bet ter conditions than In cases where hundreds of birds are kept In a single house. If several emaciated, stunted birds are found on the ranges, look first to the colony houses at' night. They are probably overcrowded.

Dane County Farmers To Visit Test Farm at Statesville Aug. 5th. Arrangements have been made by County Agent WJ F. Reece, with Mr. F. T. Meacham, keeper of the Piedmont Test Farm at Statesville, N. C. for Davie County day, Aug 5th, 1920. The County Agent is anxious that' 200 or 300 farmers of the County avail them selves of this opportunity of seeing what is being done by the Depart ment of Agriculture in-testing out different fertilizers, the'use of lime, crop rotation, etc. The Test Farm is two miles west of Statesville, about 30 miles from Mocksville, and can be reached in less than 2 hours time by automo bile. The party will meet at Mocks ville,-at 7.30 o'clock in the morning so that we may leave promply at 8 o’clock reaching the farm at 10 o’clock. Arrangements will be made to have helpers of the Depart ment of Agriculture there to assist Mr. Meachum in showing the work that is being done. Now after you have done a hard year’s work and have your crops finished and wheat threshed, take a day off as an outing. It will do you good, and let’s have a pleas ant day together. Farmers take your wives. It will do them good as well as you. Take your boy, for they are to be the farmer- in the future. Take your tennants, for they may be more interested than you. Let every one prepare lunch for the day, and after the dinner, we will have some talks from those that are to be with us there. W. F. REECE, County Agt. Elbaville Items. Mr. and Mrs. C. C.

The nearest that he and his family can come to his age is 112 years. His family has never claimed him to be oyer that age. The tax records that were burned in the court house at Harlan gave the date of his birth, as near as they could make it out, as September, 1808. He also counts from the age of his first wife, who died at the age of 107. “John Shell cannot read or write, but for many years he was an expert maker of flint-lock rifles. John Shell rifles, - marked with his private mark just behind the .ock, are prized by collectors. “In order to get a consensus of opinion as to his probable age, I thought it best to secure statements and affidavits from members of the family and neighbors, who have known him for many years. I therefore secured such statements from Judge A. B. Cornett, T. H. Howard, attor ney-at-law, and W. B. Kelly, ex-Umted States marshal, and - others.

LCopyrighl HkimDttWOOfr b ilibOCRWOOOKllewVork T HE age-old puzzle, “How old is Apr,” is now put into the shade by the question lately agitated in the public press as to “How old is John?” Old “Uncle” Johnny Shell, the ' Kentucky mountaineer, who paid a visit to the -Kentucky State Fair at Louisville last fall, has become famous over night as a 'result of this controversy. Such papers as the “New York Herald,” the “Literary Digest,” and other periodicals of national circulation, have printed his picture, with comments on the question at issue. So much interest has been shown in the matter, that a special investigator was sent to Greasy Creek, Kentucky, by The Chattanooga Medicine Company (whose medicine—Thedford’s Black-Draught Liver Medicine—had been used in the Shell fam ily for many years) in order to get more information on the subject. The investigator’s report is given on an- _. other column of this page. The result of this investigation seems to show, on tes timony of friends and neighbors, that John Shell is about 112 years old, that his health is good for a man of his age, and that his mind is clearer than that of the average centenarian. -A statement from his grandson (A.

MOCKSVILLE, NORTH CAROLINA PRODUCTAf OF SORG WRGED Keen Demand for Sugar Substi tutes Favors Growth of Crop in Every State. - YIELD: STEADILY INCREASING Inquiries Still Greater Than Supply Despite High Prices Which Range From 90 Cents to $1.50' Per Gallon—Two Varieties, . A marked increase in the production of sorghum sirup is indicated by re ports received by the United States department of agriculture, which has been engaged in a special campaign to induce greater production of this crop because of the keen demand for sugar substitutes. Yield Has Increasedr At the beginning of the world war the annual yield of sorghum sirup in the United States Was approximately 13,000,000 gallons. This has increased steadily until for the past year it was approximately 30,000,000 gallons. The average yield .of sirup per acre has been about 100 gallons, but the fact that this figure can be increased is indicated by the department’s expert: ments, in which more than 400 gallons per acre have been produced In some localities. In urging increased plantings to sor ghum the department’s experts point out that despite the increasing yields the demand is still greater than the supply, as shown by the price for sirup, m SOME PIGEON POINTERS It Is never t'oo. late to clean out and whitewash the lofts.

Grown In Every State.- There are abundant opportunities :for increasing the sorghum production, the experts say, since this crop can be grown in every state in the Union with the possible exception of Maine. Tn tlie northern states it is necessary- to plant early-maturing .varieties of sorghum. “Early Amber” and “Fol- gers” are among the varieties recom mended by the department, which is prepared to supply inquirers with full Information regarding the cultivation of this profitable plant. ROTTED MANURE PREFERABLE A July —and every morning -when the thougjrt of health enters into the m eal time preparation— This easily digested fbod n eed s no sugar, yet it has a most pleasing sweet flavor, and is fdll o f the Sound goodness, of-wheat arid malted barley. iiTherels a Reason Y* Its Mechanical Condition Is Improved by Organie Matter Being Broken Down. . Manure loses much of its plant food In the process of rotting. Its mechan ical condition, however, Is much im proved, because there is a great deal of the coarse organie' matter broken down.. Much of this’ .will be lost through decay, and the percentage of mineral plant food remaining may be greater per ton of manure in the rot ted than In the fresh condition. These facts make rotted manure preferable for truck crops where quick results are desired and where a large amount of manure is used, says F. L. Duley of the University of Missouri college of agriculture. Too heavy applications of fresh manure may often, bum plants, especially during dry seasons. The coarse organic material keeps the soil open and reduces its capacity to retain moisture. However, there is too much loss of plant food in rotting and It Is advisable to apply manure as soon as'possible. OBTAINING PROFITS IN PIGS More Money Made in Maturing Animal Early Than Otherwise—Skimpy Feed Is Wasteful. Profit comes not . to how little we. can keep the pig on, but In how much we can get him to eat of a balanced ration. The younger the animal the more thoroughly it digests its. food. Therefore, mature pigs early. The six months’ 200 -pound ■ pig costs one-half the 200 -pound eighteen months’ pig.

Forty Per Cent of Birds, in Average Farm Flock Are Nonproductive and Should Be Fattened and Sold or Eaten.. In Missouri last year, 73,765 birds were eliminated from 1,593 flocks which were culled under the super vision of tlie home demonstration agents' sent out by the United States department of agriculture and the State Agricultural college. Tltis re sulted in a saving of approximately $50,161 to their owners. In another state, 486 local leaders were trained, with the result that 717,- 478 birds were culled. Of this num ber 274,399 were found to be nonpror ductive.- . About 81 per cent of all the poultry In the country is cared for my women. For that reason special attedtion is given to poultry by the home clubs supervised by the department of agri culture and the state colleges, and farm women are taught best methods of poultry selection, .breeding, raising, feeding, housing, culling, canning sur plus birds for home use, preservation of eggs, and co-operative selling of poultry products. Lack of proper culling thus far has proved to Be, in the majority of cases, the principal reason why a flock is not profitable. Forty per cent of the hens In the average farm flock today are nonproductive, and should be sold or eaten. It costs about $2 a year to feed each hen. If she does not produce more than that amount in eggs she Is unprofitable. WATER SUPPLY FOR PASTURE Half-Hogshead Will Answer Purpose Fairly Well, but Cement Trough Is Much Better.

CHAPTER' XII.—Continued. —16— The crisis was reached the following summer. They met afterwards In a cafe. Huntwashaggard, unkemptHe had fallen off in weight, and his sunken face, bloodshot eyes, trembling fingers, were signs of the terrific strain he had undergone. Fitzhugh, in marked contrast, never appeared more fresh or more self-contained. They had ordered champagne, and when they clinked their glasses he smiled reassuringly at his white-faced com panion. It was only the bare flicker of a smile that vanished as suddenly as It came. Fitzhugh did not often smile In those days. “How much did you say we had net ted, Hunt? Tell me again. It’s music to my ear.” “Three millions and over, Dan. Three milions and over. Dan—” Hunt ■leaned Impulsively across the table, seized his friend's hand, wrung it with fervor— “Dan, if ever I try to advise you again, I—Dan, I’ll never try to hold you back again as long as I live!” CHAPTER XIII. Selling his long line of spring and summer wheat, Fitzhugh bought three million bushels of the September op tion. He was now become known as the greatest of the bulls. Every big buying order was laid to him. His appearances In the pit grew more in frequent. He distributed his com mands among six or seven different brokers. Crops were universally bad. The United States had not yet felt the European demand, but It would come soon, and he knew It would be heavy. He knew wheat would rise still higher, and he gradually increased his holdings in September to six mil lion bushels. Then came the cry from Europe—an Insistent cry—the cry for bread. He received a code-cable from his agent In Liverpool: “Can negotiate five mil lion wheat. Name price.” He sold his six millions at an ad vance of twenty cents a bushel, sad In one vast swoop bought in eight mil lion bushels of July. And Hunt so far forgot his pledge as to remonstrate. “Aren’t you forcing your luck,- Dsn? It seems to me—” “And it seems to me,” cut in the "plunger,” looking up from the work on his desk, “that I know just what I’m doing. That wheat cost seventy- five cents. It’ll go up to a dollar be fore July.” “But what If it doesn’t?” “But It will. It’ll go to a dollar if I send it to a dollar. And I’ll send it to a dollar. And then— !” “Huh!” Hunt started. “You don’t mean—” “Never mind. I’ll tell you later.” He told him then,-however; had so Intended doing when he entered his ofBce that morning. It was quite the .biggest thing thus far In his career, and of late he had worked on it, quietly, indefatigably, vouchsafing Hunt, because he was not for a while sure of it, hardly more than a hint of what he was planning. He had sta tioned correspondents in all the Euro pean markets. He had held many se cret conferences with two Packing- town millionaires, big gamblers both, who played a hidden game. And now, this morning, the thing which had been building these months past was no longer nebulous to his vision. It stood forth vividly, nakedly, complete and beautiful In every detail. “Today,” said he, leaning across the flat-topped desk and regarding his auditor fixedly, “you and I own, and I •control, approximately eight million bushels of ,July wheat Within two months I shall control fifteen million bushels. By July I expect to control over forty million bushels.” “But, Dani- How the dickens—” “Marsh and AlIport are In the pool.” Hiint subsided, nodding understand ing^. “You’ve, seen the harvesting returns, Hunt? You know America’s crops are going to be smalt Same In Europe. French crops are poor; Germany's worse. Argentine’s will be the small est for the last ten years. Europe will have to look to America-for her wheat But America won’t be able to give it to her? .There’ll be mighty little wheat n Chicago by July; and that little will » locked tight In my pool. Do you begin to understand?” The way Hunt chewed and puffed at his ciga'r proved that he. understood. Yet he dared not utter what he al ready knew. 'SymingtonvOtis is bearing the mar ket,” he.said,.his hands, gripped tight ly round' the arms of his chair. “He ’snows you’re long on July wheat, too, and—” He checked himself,..struck, by a sudden thought: “I’m hanged if you’re.not doing this to beat him!” Eltzhugh’s iron jaw tensed. “Ift thinks I’m" doing it alone. He’ll fight nee for all' he’s worth. So much -the for him.” I" it gave-full vent to bis excite ment: "Where’s he going to get his wheat? That’s what I wanl to know.” He. shoved back his chair, -unable longer to restrain himself, unable longer to keep unvoiced the thing up permost In both their minds. .“We can do it, Dan, we can do it! We’ll corner the market I” Daniel shook his head. “I will cor ner the market.” Hunt pounded his' fist info his open palm. “And smash Otis!” he cried, exultantly. “You owe Mm one, Dan. Smash Otis!” ' ' “Smash Otis?" Daniel laughed. There was no mirth In the langhter. “Smash Otis, you say? If Symington Otis gets In my way Tll—crush him!” And with a spasmodic movement his fingers contracted, and from, wrist to shoulder' beneath their tweed covering the rippling muscles of bis arms stood .out In cords. * » « * * * • Otis was planning another of his celebrated bear raids. He was re solved it should be the mightiest he had ever led. He gathered in money from every available source. Realiz ing the market disfavored him, he was determined to conquer it by sheer force of capital. His first onslaught, started in April, made little if any impression, and he redoubled his attack. Still the enemy showed no sign of weakening. Again and again he charged, but every rush was met-and repulsed. He was over whelmed with buying orders. They swamped him from .every side. He stopped, puzzled. He had not ac counted his opponent half so power ful. Otis, however, was not the hesi tant sort of general. Marshaling his heavy artillery, he dashed upon the battlefield, fighting with the implaca bility that from the beginning had characterized his long career in finan cial warfare. This charge,' too, was easily buffeted. But no white flag was shown. Beating a retreat, the grim old warrior gathered his forces to gether for a fresh onset. The next clash, he decided, would be the decis ive one. By the middle of June Fitzhugh was all but czar of the pit When Fitzhugh formulated the pool to corner July wheat it was understood that, no matter what might arise, he was to be free to follow the dictates of his own judgment. For this and other reasons the names of the Packingtown millionaires were never disclosed, and few knew the main fount of his mam moth resources. His marvelous vitality gave contin ual wonder to his associates. He was made of iron. He would work eighteen hours a day, dispatching with sureness and speed the thousand pressing duties ,“If Symington Otls Oets in My Way I’ll Crush Hlml" that ,crowded upon him. taking his meals on the wing, and requiring of the twenty-four but four or five hours for sleep. Most amazing of all, he displayed never an ill.sign of the red- hot tension under which he. worked, but seemed to thrive on i t He was al ways fresh and eager for each day’s tasks. His last battle-with Symington Gtis was the most spectacular of the final trilogy. It began.on the morning of July first and lasted for three terrific days. As the gong sounded on that first morning Fitzhugh appeared ia the pit, girded for the fray. With the stroke of the opening gong Otis’ lieutenants began' to sell wheat There were three of them, with orders to sell half's million each. Then came an unfathomable surprise: Fitzhugh sold wheat! Bushel for bushel, he sold as fast as his adversaries. The price reeled and dropped diz zily. -The preceding day it had closed strong at one dollar; by eleven that morning It was unsteady at ninety-six and a half. . At the height of the furious conflict Fitzhugh, who was the core of it be came aware of some one tearing at his arm and yelling In his ear: . . “Dan! Dan! Have you gone.crazy?” Beholding Hunt screaming at the top i of his voice, he wrenched loose from the mob surrounding him and. seizing his subordinate under the arm pits, lifted him clear outside -the pit. At the close of the day’s session wheat had dropped to ninety-four iand an eighth, where it swayed uncertain ly. - OOs had sold two million bushels. Fitzhugh had. sold a like amount When he reached hiB office Fitzhugh found his three coadjutors waiting him In ominous silence. “Good-day, gentlemen!” -, .... - There was no answer beyond an un easy cough from Hunt. Fitzhugh looked at the three stony faces silent ly, condemning him. . “In good truth,'" he laughed, “a Dan iel come to judgment I” But when he sat at his desk the ver tical lines were between his brows. He took a deliberately long time to light a cigar, then, extinguishing the match and, depositing it carefully In an ash tray, he settled himself com fortably in his chair and said: “You all remember it was agreed In the beginning I was to ran this thing, and I shall run it in my own way or not at all.” “But :cenfound it, man,” exploded Marsh, who had been holding hts tongue with difficulty, “what in the name of common sense do you mean by selling?” Glad that one of the tribunal bad shown some life, Fitzhugh swupg his chair round briskly so that he faced the speaker. “Who owns the most wheat—Sym ington OtIs or us? How long will his crowd last if they try to outsell us? Don't you see?” “Not for a minute!” broke in All- port, reddening under his collar. ‘TH make it clearer. Suppose Otlsi crowd knocks July wheat off fifteen or twenty points. Very well. Immedi ately they stop selling—perhaps be fore—TH begin buying. Then, as an elastic band that has been stretched to its utmost, July wheat will spring back. It'll go to a dollar. It’ll go be yond a dollar. FII see to tbat!” “It does sound plausible;” -hesitated Hunt, desirous of supporting his lead er, yet still somewhat doubtful, “I don’t like it,” said Marsh sourly. - “Mr. Otis,” continued Daniel, and there was a hard ring in his voice that caused Hunt and Allport to exchange meaning glances, “thinks he has me on the run. He’s boasting how he licked me in today’s skirmish, OS how I turned tall at the .first fire. But wait till he springs my pitfall. W ait! I’ve got him I” The discussion lasted until nearly nightfall. By grace of his power of persuasion no less than by his domi nant personality and strength of pur pose, Fitzhugh finally induced the oth ers to admit that his course was the best one. Wlien they went out through the quiet, brightly lighted offices, the four were on very amicable terms; and the hot words of discussion that had frequently passed between them were quite forgotten. “There's one thing,” Fitzhugh said in parting, “I want to impress upon you three. When we have defeated Otis, I want to deal with him in my own way. Remember that"—looking keenly into each face. “I want to deal with Symington Otis In my own way.” Promptly next morning Otis re newed the combat It occupied every minute of that day’s session, and, as on the preceding day, raged with a tlt- for-tat uproar. When the closing gong sounded , he had sold, altogether, over four million bushels of July wheat: wheat of which he owned not a grain, but which he expected to buy later— and deliver as promised—at a lower price -than he had sold it for. And, the same as yesterday, his opponent had sold with him, bushel for bushel. Otis, was flushed with the elation of his obvious victory. "It’s all over,” he confided to a friend that^ evening, as he sat down smilingly to a well-ordered dinner. Otis was living at his club these days, his wife and daughter having gone abroad for the summer, “AU over but the shouting. Tomorrow Til finish him. He’ll be snapped out of the Chicago wheat pit like a gnat—Just as I once told him a long time ago.” Simultaneously with the dawning of the third day Qf battle Otis took the aggressive. And simultaneously there came a surprise. His promises of wheat were gobbled up as fast as they were offered. Buying orders poured In from all sides, deluging his traders. He increased his selling. The buying like wise increased. He began to fight des perately, flooding the pit with his sell ing commands. But it was as though he poured sand in the ocean. Fitzhugh.had not appeared on the “floor” since the - first day. From his private office he sent orders to a dozen or more brokers. AU these orders were, “Buy July wheat.” AU were to take effect this morning. He cabled his representatives in IJverpool and Paris. These cablegrams also read, “Buy Jnly wheat.” They, too, beeame effective this morning. In aU, he Is sued instructions to purchase twelve million bushels, or approximately double the amount he had sold on the prior two daysi The market that morning was like a kite in a windstorm. It zigzagged crazily. Shortly, however, It steadied, hung stationary an instant, then bounded‘upward. Up, tugging deteri mlnedly. it climbed with a rapidity that outstripped Its failing the day be fore. Otis gave' orders to cease aU.sell ing. Like a released spring, ,the price leaped higher still. At the close of the day’s session it stood at a dollar and. twenty-five cents, with a tendency to mount'beyond. The next, day was Sunday. ■ Mon day's trading increased in frenzy. The ,price .ascended more and more stiffly. Otis did nothing. He ShreS not cover his promises by buying, By so doing he would put up the price oa himself. He dared not sell-, for every- bushel he sold would be sold at a loss. Word passed "swiftly from mouth to mouth' that Symington Otis, the 'big bear,* had fought his final fight and was down at last.' . ’ .

COX OF OHIO. For Vice President. FRANKLIN D. ROOSEVELT, OF NEW YORK., By WRIGHT A. PATTERSON. (Copyright. Western Newspaper Union.) Convention Hall, San Francisco, Gal.—Alter eight days of the most strenuous conventlonlng nny political party lias seen In nianyflj-ears, tlie Democratic gathering at 2:45 Tues day morning of the second -week named Juities 0. Cos of Oliio for Presi dent, and on Tuesday afternoon named SP. D.. Hoosevelt for vice pres ident. Tiie nomination of Governor Cox was made on the forty-fourth bal lot, and after a night of tlie most In tense excitement. When tlie convention convened on Monday morning after a fruitless period of balloting on Friday night Iilid nil day and late into tlie night of Saturday, it seemed to be In a dead lock otit of which no one of the three lending candidates coitkl pos sibly be picked as n winner. This con dition continued throughout tlie day. 'And until after a recess taken at 5:30 until S:30 no evidence of any serious break could be found in tne lines of any of the three leading candidates until after tlie thirty-eifflitli ballot, when Consressinan Carlin announced the withdrawal of Attorney General, Palmer and the release of his in structed delegates. On the next bal lot the Pennsylvania delegation con tinued to vote almost solidly for Palmer, but after that tliey broke, tlie majority going to McAdoo. Oil tlie forty-first ballot tlie JIcAdoo forces began to break, and before the forty- fourtli ballot was completed it was evident that Governor Cox had won, and a motion to make the nomination unanimous was carried with a shout. Convention a Real One. It was a real convention, and more especially a real Democratic conven tion, that adjourned on Tuesday after noon. It was a convention that ivas run by the 1,093 delegates and an equal number of alternates. It was leaderless, and in fact, if it may be said to have had a fault at all, it was tills lack of leadership that for many weary hours made it seem impossible for the necessary two-thirds to reach on agreement on the choice of a efln- , J n \ L JAMES M. COX.FRANKLIN D. ROOSEVELT. posed to reservations so Ions as they did not seriously change the intent of tlie document.. End of First Session. A roil call followed for the appoint ment of tlie usual convention commit tees and tlie first session was over. For the next two days the real activi ties of tlie great gathering was trans ferred to the meeting rooms of the committees. The Committee on Cre dentials confirmed the petion of na tional committee in seating tlie Palmer delegation from Georgia, and in unseat ing Senator Heed of Missouri. It bad been anticipated that botli of these contests would be taken to the floor of the convention, but with the exception of entering a protest on the action on Senator Eeed the contests provided no entertainment for tlie audience. Ill an effort to make time the Rules Coimnittee Iiad recommended that nominating speeches be In order pre ceding the report of the committee on platform, and this became the lirst order of business for Wednesday. That was a day of oratory of the good old-fashioned Democratic kind. Dur ing the all-day session of Wednes day anjj through the flrst session of Thursday, tlie oratorical llglits of the party extolled the virtues of the four teen candidates named In either nomi nating ov seconding speeches. With but one exception the nominat ing speeches were made by men. The one exception was Miss Bessie Dwyer, an alternate from the Philippines, who presented the Dame of Governor Fran cis Burton Harrison. Every candi date whose nomination was seconded at all had provided for one or more women as seconders. Sensational Naming Cf. McAdoo. The event of the nominating session was the presentation of the name of Mr. McAdoo. It was known that Mr. .McAdoo had Insisted that his name be not presented to the convention and had repeated this wish by Ietegripii on Tuesday to Uev. Burris .Tenkins of Kansas City. McAdoo delegates were insistent that the name of tiielr favor ite be presented regardless of his in structions, but Frank R. Wilson, a former newspaper man, tlie leader of the McAdoo forces, was equally insist ent that tbe wishes of McAdoo be complied with. In the end Wilson con sented to an informal presentation, m which it should be stated that it was without the consent of the former secretary, and without, any elaboration on his qualifications for the office. Mr. Jenkins said that while Mr. Mc- Adoo was not seeking tbe nomination, he proposed that Democracy draft him for tlie good of the nation. liberal enforcement legislation for the Eighteenth amendment, and leaving it to each locality to determine the de sired percentage of alcohol. It was characteristic of a Democratic conven tion that all sides were given a hearing before the delegations, and what a hearing it was. Mr. Bryan was given an hour and a lialf to present his side of tlie story, and be went-to bat with all his old time vigor. -While he yield ed a small part of his time to other speakers M made the most of every moment lie retained. His powerful presentation of the subject reminded one of the days of 1896 when he car ried the Democracy of America off its feet at Chicago and captured the nom ination by bis “Cross of gold” speech, «r again In 1912 at Baltimore, when he led the Wilson hosts to victory after a teriffic political battle. Time after time he aroused the vast audience of delegates and spectators to frenzied heights of enthusiasm. But it was en thusiasm for the man, an appreciation of the Individual, and not an endorse ment of his Ideas. He received the cheers but not the vote and his dry plank went down to defeat with only 155 votes In favor of It, and his other planks were beaten without a roll call. Assistance for Soldiers.' Another, minority report providing for the appointment of a commission to investigate cases of personal finan cial loss on the part of soldiers In the world war, and placing the party on "record as favoring financial assist ance In such cases, presented by Thainas D. Lyons of Oklahoma, was rejected by a viva voce vote, and the majority report was adopted without a roll call. THE FORECAST JS FOR HEAVY HARVESTS OF PRINCIPAL CROPS OF THE COUNTRY.

Daring these hours and days there were a number of men- who were quite willing to assume leader ship, but no one of them, or no group of them, could Unci n sufficient num ber of followers to make their lead ership effective. The delegates in sisted that they, and not any self- appointed group of leaders, repre sented the rank and file of the-Demo cratic party,, and each delegate In sisted on voting the way he believed, or professed to believe, bis people nt home wished' him to vote, regardless of any plea foT a compromise, and re gardless of the use of .every, expedi ent known to political strategy to influence him. The opening- of. the great gathering was as featureless as all such "openings are. There Was an air of expectancy In the-great, audience for a large ma jority of whom Jiis was . their first experience in a political convention of such magnitude. The audience had looked for a fight starting witb the fall of Vice Chairman KxemeiaS gavel, but they Wfte rewarded with nothing more exciting Umn the nmsterful keynote address of. Uomer Cummings, In jvblch he; outlined the Issues bn which: the Deniocrutlc party would ask . the people for support This aid- dress was devoted almost exclusively to the League of TMtIoiis, add its point was a demand for ratification without DBintyVng reservations. Mr. Cutnk nii'iijgs laid Hitecial emphasis on tlie -point I lint the President 'was not pp» Stubborn Platform Fight. The platform committee had a long, stubborn fight on Its hands in an ef fort to satisfy many opposing elements. Senator Glass, as chairman of the Res olutions Committee, represented the administration viewpoint on the League of Nations especially, and proposed to put through the Virginia plank. This was acceptable-to practically all dele gates except Mr. Bryan and some of his followers, who could not see the possibility of ratification without- rad ical reservations. Other' planks that caused hours of discussion referred to the liquor question, to Ireland, to la bor and two or three other things. In the end the committee had to tajte sev eral questions to the floor of the con vention, much to the gratification of the audience,-and this resulted In an other oratorical display throughout all of the long Friday session. Senator Glass presented the majority report of tlie'Platform Committee. .Mr. Bryan presented a minority report containing a strong dry plank, with a declaration for., a strict enforcement of the Vol stead act! a plank calling for an amendment to the Constitution giving the senate power to ratify a peace and Indorsing a ratification of’ the league covenant with whatever reser vations might be necessary to secure its approval; ja plank .on profiteeTintt providing that the cost and sale price be shown on all articles of merchan dise,,and a plank providing for the es tablishment.;,^ a national bulletin for the dissemination of information on all Important national questions of tlie day, open ■ to ijl political . parties and through -which all candidates fo* office- on a national Kckat would be privileged to'.announce their candidacy and their qualifications. Mr. Bryan, by request, offered .another minority report on the liquor question prepared by Richmond Pearson Hobson. j f Bourke -Cockran'* Wet Plank. > Bourke Cockran of New Jork,; pre sented a minority report for the wets The One Great Feature. Much as tlie great audience had ap preciated the oratorical displays and the keen competition that bad marked the efforts to ,secure party endorse ment ;lor opposing ideas, the one great feature of the- national show for which all- had -Valted was the bal loting on candidates for the presi dential nomination, and wlien Chair man Robinson of Arkansas announced the.next order of business as the roll call of the states Immediately after the adoption of the platform he was greeted With a mighty roar. . Old-Time Political Fervor. The demonstration for favorite can didates and for favorite policies con tained all of the old-time political fer vor. Time after time came parades of state standards. Time after time came flglits for the possession ' of state standards, and In Which a number of them were destroyed. At the close of Mr.- Bryan's address In support of his dry’plank all ^oi the state standards with the exception of New York, Mis sissippi, Illinois, New Jersey, Alabama, Ohio,, and two-or three others, were carried to the platform in -his honor. Folloiving the address of - Secretary Colby, In support of the majority re port of the platform committee on the League o f Nations every state stand ard was carried to the platform as a. tribute to him.

I think a simple illustration on the practical operation of revalua- tjou will convince any farmer that it? effect w ill be to shift the burden of taxes to real estate. In 1915 farmer owned a price of land assess ed at Stoo-He had three friends who lived in town. Orieof them had a n o t e and mortgage of $100, the otherhad a share of stock in foreign corporation worjh $100, a u d t h e other had a hundred dollars iu money. So ' each of them was assessed at S100. The rate of taxes I * for the state aud county purposes was a dollar on the hundred, so the fanner and his three friends each paid one dollar taxes. In 1920 the farmer’s land was as sessed at $400: his friend’S note and mortgage at $100; the shares of stockin the foreign corporation, by the generosityof the last legislature, is exempted entirely from taxation; and his friend’s money is assessed at $100. Now we are told b y . the “evangels of truth and honesty” in taxation that the remedy now is to reduce the rate. Suppose we re duce the rate to 25 cents, what is the result? The farmer pays a dollar ashedidin 1915; his friend who holds the note and mortgage pays 25 cents; his bond holding friend pays nothing at all because he has been entirely exerripted; and his friend who has the money, pays 25 cents. Inhisreassessment of $400 worth of property, we have lost $2.50 in taxes, but the farmer still pays his one dollar, and releif is found for him. How, will some evangel,, of truth and honesty” tell me why the shares of - corporation stock should be tax free, and the burden I piled higher on the farmer? Now, I who pays this #2.50 of taxes that we have taked off of the tax of the holder of notes and mortgages, money and stock corporation? . If the farmer's land has been assessed at eight times what it .'was assessed at in IQi5, then he will pay back one dollar of th is $2.50. If you think this is an equitable and just system you should vote the Democratic ticket this fall.— I . A. Lintiey. He Soffragette Sisters.

If the admonition of Mr. Crissiri- ger, himself a democrat, comes true," Senator Harding will ride the demo cratic mule' into the white house next November. “I admonish you, my fellow citizens,” he said, “that he will ride the democratic mule into the white house in November as president of the United States.” Going farther than predicting Senator Harding’s election. Mr. Crissirigersaidheknew “your en thusiasm aud appreciation . will prompt your votes to be cast irre spective of party ties so as to make it possible for each of you to extend the right hand of fellowship to Florence Harding as the first lady of the land and to Waaren G. Harding as the president of the United States.” Following a recital of Senator Harding’s years from early barefoot country lad, Mr. Crissinger declared the senator “is neither too proud to fight nor too proud to work” that he is no “silk stocking” business man, but a “real fellow, a man who thoroughly knows his business and does it, and the printer’s rule which he always carries his rabbit foot.” But Senator Harding did not re ceive all the tribute. He was com pelled to share it about 50-50 with Mrs. Harding in welcoming cere monies. . Howshehadsharedinthe trials and triumphs of her husband were related by Mr. Crissinger1 who asserted that her “tactful ways will make her a favorite as the first lady of the land.” The Democratic Administration. ^luring the Republican ,admin? Istratibn in North Carolina in the nineties, Governor AycOck- and other Democratic hot .artists prati- cally attributed all the crime com mitted in our state to the Republi can party. We all remember Gov. Aycock’s “revolver and mocking bird” story. Yes, they practically said crime would cease if the Demo crats were put into power. Yet, likethe “he kept us out of. .war” lies, “too proud to fight,” and all other Democratic statements arid promises, this one proves to have been if possible, more false than all the other falsehoods preceding it. Under the Democratic admiistra- tion crime of all kinds, since Gov ernor Aycock and his compatriots made those charges, has increased in North Carolina more than ten times over what it was under the Republican rule and ten times fast er in proportion to the increase in population. And under the Wil son administration it has increased five to ten times throughout the nation.. What are you going to do about it?

England is reported to be con sidering Cancellation of all her allies’ indebtedness, according to a special dispatch from London to the Phila delphia Public Ledger by Carl W. Ackerman. ‘ ‘So far as the policy of the British goverment is concern ed, ’ ’ Mr. Ackerman reports,' ‘every thing is fairly clean. Eriglaud hopes to wipe the slate of her war; debt, not because she cannot realize in full, but because of the good re lations which she wants to continue, because these good relations are necessary in order to promote trade? The fog, however, immediately ap pears when a question is asked as to what the United States will do if any or all of the European coun tries should ask our govemriient to cancel America’s loans to them.’ ’ Itisperfectly natural that the fog “immediately appears.”’ ’When’ it is recalled that the war loans made by the Uriited States to European countries reached enormous totals, it is quite apparent that the naive suggestions from EnglandJwill re ceive Iitfle serious conditions in- this country. Of course everyone should want to promote “good rela tions,” but the solemn obligations entered into by Great Britain,! France, Italy and other 'countries cannot be lightly cast aside. All of the nations will experience 'diffi culties in the reconstruction days; many years will be required for the reconstruction days; many years will be required for the restoration of normal, financial and economic conditions. But the people ih the various countries can work out their bwn salvation—literally work it out—and the "good^rglations” will continue good. On the other, if- Jbere is to be a serious effort to in duce.this country to forget all the loans it made during the great war, prie need hardly. expect excellent .delations.—Greensboro Record.

T-Bill Mont gomery. The citizens of Mocksville pay their taxes. This money is sup posed to keep our schools going, to keep our sidewalks and streets in good shape, to furnish us police and fire protection. Why should the citizens have to raise a private fund to pay a policeman? What goes with our tax money? What advantages have we over the peo ple who live in the rural sections? Don't all answer at once. A desperate effort is being made to take trains Nos. 21 and 22 away from us, and route them by way of Salisbury 'instead of Winston- Salem. Salisbury has 20 trains to our one, and -the Corporation Com mission would be giving this entire section a raw deal should they take away from us the few trains we have and give them to the main line where they have trains every . few minutes. The people in this section will not soon forget the but- ters-in from Charlotte, Concord, Albemarle and other towns -who are trying to force us to walk. There are many people in North Carolina who do not know that Davie county is one of the finest farming counties in the State, and cannot be beat when it comes to girowing wheat. A nuinberofthe State papers frequently refer to Catawba, Iredell and other counties in making comparisons with other States. For. the benefit of the Charlotte Observer, Hickory Re cord-and other papers we would like to cite a few cases. On the Cooleemee farms, which are under the management of Mr. H. C. Koontz, one of Davie’sbest farmers, the. wheat on a 25 acre farm this year threshed out 1,040 bushels, or nearly 42 bushels to the acre. Mr. Koontz has other fields that will yield about as much as this, or perhaps more. The Feezor farm, on part of the land produced over 25 bushels to the acre, and the M. J. Hendrix farm will do much better than this. If the Obser ver or the Record can beat this we would like . to hear from them. We are going to print the big yield as soon as.the threshing season is over. When it comes to growing wheat webelieve Davie county will be found in the front ranks. Our lands are. also'adopted to growing cotton, tobacco,, clover and corn, If you want to see some fine farms pay Davie county a visit. Hflmonyj Route I, News.

Mi*?Editor:—Much complaint is heard with reference to taking top- soil and destroying of crops where roads are being built, and whether or not parties damaged can get anything. Having been consulted by several persons, I give my views' for what they are worth. Under the 1913 road laws for Daviecounty road commissioners coiild pay dam ages after the amount had been ascertained and assessed. I have always contended that actual* reas onable damages should “be paid,- and I am informed by reliable au thority, that the road commissiorers have decided to pay such damages. To allow the benefits to offset the damages is unfair and unjust, for all. are more or less benefitted’, while, in many;, instances only a few are really • damage. The general public should not, ^ud has no right to receive benefits at the expense of an unfortunate few. In building a certain rpad one hundred farnis might be contiguous, while only twenty were entered and top soil and crops injured in the building; all the hundred are benefitted, why should the twenty only suffer the loss? Payipg the twenty is just simply the square deal. . • E. H.

That the farmers of the country find the weekly weather forecasts of im mense- value, especially during the growing season, is evidenced by a let ter of -appreciation recently received by the weather bureau of the United States department of agriculture from an Illinois farmer. He was highly pleased with the aid the forecasts had been to him and his neighbors in plant ing their corn. -In part he wrote: Of Untold Benefit. “These forecasts have been of un told benefit to us this, an unusual backward spring, and we feel greatly Indebted to you. With this very reli able advanced information you are furnishing us we are able to figure ahead and keepljlanting right up. For instance, this station began plowing for corn last week. When we- re ceived your bulletin predicting rain for Tuesday or Wednesday of this week, we got b*sy with our corn planters, some even turning the face of their calendars to the wall and letting one Sunday get away from them. To malfe a long story short, when j'our predicted rain struck us Tuesday noon and is still coming down this, Wednesday, morning, it found over one-third of the Illinois corn crop In the ground ready to be soaked and germinated. Had we not been put wise by your office am confident that not one-sixth would have been planted. While your daily weather reports, made up by your local- observer, help out some, tlies cannot be compared with your weekly forecast sent out from Washington. I have watched it auite close since you began this-part of the service five or six years ago, and have found it most reliable and dependable.” WeeKIy Forecast In addition to the daily weather fore- casts publlshed in.practically aU news papers, the weather bureau issues on Saturday of eaah week a forecast for the six. days beginning the following Monday. These forecasts are made for nine separate districts' covering practically the entire United States, and necessarily are'less specific than the daily forecasts. , Tliey are given wide distribution during the. growing season, and the letter quoted records but one instance, among many, in which they hafe proved of great value to farmers.

Some of them make earth en nests lined with silk, while others hide at the base of the roots of plants. A. G;' Ruggles, state entomologist of Minnesota, thus explains' how Count less numbers of crop pests can be de stroyed: " " ‘TVlien the insect is in the' transi tional period between the larva or worm and the adult they are very sus ceptible to disturbances. Disking or plowing the ground in the fall disturbs these forms and many of them die. It is also-known-that alternate thawing and freezing weather has a destructive effect upon insect life. Wany insects can endure freezing alone, but alter nate freezing and thawing is fatal. “Also many of the more delicate forms, if the plowing is done properly, can be covered so deeply with soil that they are unable to reach-the surface the following year. Many insects ex posed by the plow are also devoured by birds. ’ For these reasons disking or plowing are operations recommended by all economic entomologists.” SUDAN GRASS YIELD FOR HAY Average About Two and Half Tons Per Acre—Cut After Plants Have Passed Out of Bloom.

The captain of a marine supply, company in France was inventorying his carts and totaling the figures. “Wilkins,” he called to an idle pri vate who hadn’t had the sense to get out of the way; “get me the capacity of this cart.” The captain ran his pencil down the column of figures for several sec onds, keeping one ear open for the result of Wilkins’ research. But no reply came from Wilkins. The captain glanced up to find all of Wilkins except the head protruding from the hole in top of the water cart. A desperate struggle with some unseen monster seemed to be going on inside the cart. Finally Wilkins’ baffled head emerged. "I felt all around the blamed thing, captain,” he explained, “and I’ll be hanged if I can locate that capacity anywhere.”—Home Sector. Many Advantages. “What about this bathing suit?” “It Is well made, pretty and stylish.” “Any thing else?” “You can also bathe in it If you wish to.” Small Girl Feared She Had Somewhat Overdone Matter of Praying for Baby Brother. The little girl came home to her mamma very much disturbed because little Susie, her neighbor, had a new baby brother to play with, while she, herself, was very lonely. Her mother comforted her and told her to ask God to send her a little brother, too. So the child began to pray for a little brother, and occasionally got Impa tient but her mother told her to keep on praying and perhaps her prayer would be answered some day. One day she was called Into the mother’s room, and her delight knew no bounds whenfthe nurse took a wee thing up from the mother’s side and laid it in ter arms. But a moment later, when the nurse picked up an other bit of humanity, the child al most dropped the one she was holding, and a startled expression came into her face as she said: “Oh, mama !-is God going to answer all those prayers that.I prayed?” Things Apart. My little niece was studying her geography and aslced me to bound the state of Nevada. Her grandmother looked up and said: “I am surprised that a little girl that has traveled as much as yon have must ask any one to help them with their lessons.” Caroline said: “Grandma, when I travel, I travel for joy and not ‘jogra- pliy.’ ”—Exchange.

KILL DEVITALIZING INSECTS Paint Roosts With Kerosene Orl to Get Rid of Mites—Use Blue Ointment far Lice. The protection from mites means simply to paint the roosts about once each week with kerosene oil and the lice can be killed off for the summer by giving each bird the blue ointment treatment at the beginning of hot weather. This has ■ been told many times by poultrymen and probably there is ho poultry fact that needs more frequent repetition than the best method of killing these devitalizing pests.

CH-'t Er XIII.—Continued." —17— J1V-M- Ilie close of the day’s session, jrithout .IXf-CtIy knowing why, he went on the “floor” for a few minutes.- A man t-lu-nteii In his ear: "July's v-'iic to a dollar and a half I” Without' answering, without even Jool;inr at the man, he stood watch ing lhe monster turmoil. The uproar was ilcafeuing. The speculator turned away. VerJ- enr-fully, very slowly, he made JlI5 Viy through the hurly-burly, de scended die steps that led to the ground door, his hand sliding Jerkily along the hanlster. When he entered his broiler's office his hair was no more white shun his face,- and as he sat down ami Held his hand a moment over- his eyes his lingers trembled as one af flicted -ivitli palsy. It was the first time In his twenty-odd years of speculating that he had been seen unnerved. He looked at his broker and shook his head. “He's done It," he said, with a pitia ble pretense of 'smiling. “He’s done it, Howard- He’s got us. He’s cor nered iho market.” Auihoritative news of the corner went out over the land. The name of Daniel Knndolph Fitshugh loomed gigantic on the financial horizon. He controlled all the wheat. He could exact for It whatever price he wanted. If lie chose, he could get fifty dollars a bushel. He was the King of Wheat. His name became a household word. Scarcely a man, woman, or child in the middle West but prattled of him. The farmers lauded him as a benefactor of humanity. Others condemned him as a thief. Thousands of letters of every description flooded his mail. Loaves of bread dwindled in size. Mutterings reached him. His life was threatened. His wealth multiplied with prodi gious leaps. At no time could he tell how much he was worth. He knew it was mere than fifteen millions and less than thirty. Then there came a day when he was to settle with Otis. The defeated gladiator made the appointment for eleven o’clock that morning in Fitz- hugh's office. At five minutes to eleven Fitzhugh was alone awaiting him. He had given orders thut none but Otis was to be admitted, and that afterward they ' were not to be disturbed. As he lolled' hack In his cushioned chair before the* mahogany desk, and gazed round the luxurious room, a reverie came over him. He recalled his first venture in wheat, made with a- few thousands won in a poker game; he remembered the time he had worked for Quigg for four hundred dollars a month. And then, hii memory slipping his control end leaping back further still, he Ihonglit of the time when—No! Had he been a dishwasher? Had he slaved In the scullery of a filthy kitchen for a miserable weekly pittance? The door opened. Symington Otis entered. ■ . .. ■ ■" In these days of his monarchy Fitz- hngh saw many sorts of characters es- Msed law and naked to ,his gaze. He saw men come cringing tb him, Pegging nnd pleading. He saw others enter, blustering and trying to outface him. OUs behaved in neither manner. He fcaIked in quietly, and, closing the .o r* remained standing, with no greet- 1K whatsoever. He looked ten years °Wor than Ius actual age. Fitzhugh returned to Ins chair. The silence had fully half a minute -before hespoke. “It has been agreed, Mr. Otis, that I shall deal with you as I see fit.” Otis nodded. He did not speak. . ‘*5 rfcIe has been to give no quar- T an<1 ask none. I see no reason why -Mr case should mark an exception.

His ex pression was one many Chicagoans had seen to their -sorrow since last July; the facial muscles tense, the stern ' Jdw thrust forward, his eyes hard as agate, A young man entered. Fltzhiigh nodded to him, and he departed, re turning. presently with a small, round- top table, which he placed near the; desk. In the. cepter of the table was a plush box hot .unlike a jeweler's ring- case. Otis looked on as a child who fears the dark, He had not even a remote Idea of what the box contained, nor could he imagine what the table portended, yet he felt, .nevertheless, that some sinister torture was impend ing. “You are short to us,” said Daniel, after locking the' door upon his- em ployee, “seven million bushels of wheat ranging in price from ninety-six cents to a 'dollar and ten. I am going to settle our-transaction'in less-than one second;” He crossed to the table, picked up the little box, pressed a spring, in the side; the lid (lew-open, and he extract ed a new gold eagle, which he held up between thumb and forefinger. “This will settle i t A fitting emblem, Mr. Otis. I^old I What a sermon you and I might preach upon it I” Tried beyond all patience, Qtis cried out: “Come,-to the point! What’s your object?” . ■ • Fltzhugh laughed. It was the same mirthlessJaugh that had once remind ed Hunt of a wolf baring its fangs. He poised the coin. “Heads or tails, which do you want? If I win, your wheat will cost you two and a quarter a bushel—” “Two—merciful God I man, that price will ruin me !” “Of course it will.” Fitzhiugh re placed the eagle in the box, breathing audibly a sigh of relief. “Now then, I think we understand each other. If you will only go to her—” “I won’t consider that!” “You know the alternative.” “It make^nd difference. I will not consider It!” ■ ' “Very well”—poising the coin as be fore. “Heads or tails?” “Stop this asinine playing!” “Should you win you will have Just enough to live on modestly.” “The idiocy of such a thing!” Fitzhugh again gave his discomfit ing laugh. “I don’t agree with you. AU our mighty warring, proclaimed broadcast In every country of the- world, has been nothing: more than a game of lieads-and-tails. You bet wheat would fall. I bet it wonld rise. “Absolutely!1 reP^tefl ,,PreposterouS' falsehood you Inith^peated **“* falsehfcOd. It was the fcfcWt siw» i "e!

W ait!” as Otis made an attempt to interrupt. ‘Tm not through. If you will do as I ask, you will not lose a cent You will get your wheat—” “I will not do It!” “Once and for all, will you save yourself?” • . ■ . “In the way you ask—never!” ' “Then, you will .take ' the conse quences !” Daniel' seized the gold- piece. “We’.U toss for it; and if I win you will go bankrupt” Otis, who had remained' standing throughout the conversation, groped behind him for a chair,-staring aghast at his opponent. There, could be no doubting his seri ousness. There was 'not a trafce of merriment in-his hard* face. Nor a vestige of compassion. “Then you do mean it?” “Every word of it!” ' The 'groping hand strpek a .chair. Otis sat down, clutching, tremblingly at the arm, moistening.his lips. “Tails,” he whispered, but so indis tinctly h e ‘was asked, to repeat the word. “Heads,” he said, more firmly. Fitzhugh spun the coin into the air. It fell upon the polished table, wlth-m little ring. The ofder man’s face grew suddenly ghastly, and tiie two *eavy furrows extending from his ,nose to the .corners of his: mouth- deepened. He was on the verge of a collapse. “What is it?

Ter minating the ocean of details, he sailed forthwith for Paris. US’— • In** holldsr.” he told his friends. ,But It was really for quite another purpose. JJiiSt, who swore by the man and potently believed him the greatest he had ever known, settled his specula tive deals and went with him. One evening in the Cafe Martin they met Artie Sparkle. Artie Jiad long since become Sn expatriate, due, ac cording to gossip, to unrequited affec tion and' hope too often deferred. He was with a brilliantly gownedwoman of the French boulevard type,' who wore Just a little too much rouge, just a few- too many diamonds, and a gaiety of -manner Just a ,trifle too 'effervescent. Artie’s animosity toward his former rival had very obviously been'buried, or forgotten, for he pounced-joyfully upon the two Americans, and ..WltL gusto and eclat presented them to her of the gorgeous plumage—his wife of the month. ' Then more wine' was ordered to toast the bride, and Aftie extolled ec statically the bliss'of connubial life, touching In particular upon his_own, which to him, of course, was unparal leled and paramount. Gradualjy the talk turned upon other topics, with the benedict easily lending. “I read all about ;it In.Lunnon, deah fellow.” This to Daniel. “Frightfully clevah;of you, I must say,.getting all that grain and freezing out the' othah chaps. . ... And poor old Otis; I saw him In Carlsbad last week. He looks dreadfully done for. I feah the poor fellow won’t last long.” Always the mention of Otis’ name spelled bad moments for Daniel. Since that Indian summer gay when millions had hung upon the toss.bf a coin the aged speculator, as Daniel knew' had been a bowed-down man. BTe never visited the pit again.- He never went ' near it. The memory of' its roaring sent a shudder through him. He was care-worn, listless, comfortless. . He had lost his “nerve.” Grain gambling topics were taboo in his; household, and those who valued his good will found it politic not to broach such in his hearing. When in October he had left for the German “ ’bad” cures he was broken in health as well as in spirit. His quest was fruitless. One May morning in Florence Dan iel read at his breakfast table of Otis’ deqth. He had died in mid-ocean eu route to New, York. He put down his newspaper, beck oned the waiter, ordered some cable gram forms. Leaving bis breakfast untouched, and Hunt's' questions un answered, he wrote a lengthy message to a-Chicago trust company that spe cialized In mortgages. He fretted with impatience until he received an answer; and then, having read It, he tore it up gnd sighed hopelessly. Daniel heard afterward that Otis had left nothing beyond his life insur ance. The house on the drive Bad gone, !and with it all the pomp of cir cumstances. Mrs. Otis was* residing temporarily in Oconomowoc. Kathleen was with her. * . * *•..* • • * Early in June of that year two wealthy Americans, who had made 'their “piles” in July wheat, booked first-class transportation from Kome to Chicago. When they boarded the liner at Naples there embarked with them a quarter of a million dollars’ worth of European art treasures. When they left the liner at New York the name of the tall, distinguished-looking one, of the black Vandyke beard and white ducks, was not Daniel Randolph Fitz- hugh. It was his own, Hugh Daniel Fitzrandolph. This name juggling had heralded their coming, and they were surround ed at the pier by a phalanx of sharp- eyed men. armed with cameras. , Daniel greeted them warmly, shook hands, gave them cigars, and waxed so jovially-humorqus about his malleable patronymic that he! was voted a shin ing, member of the Good Fellows’ club and lauded, as a thoroughgoing, ’ fine sort. Nothing derogatory was printed of him in the New York newspapers; and the eccentricity of one’s using one’s family name for a “komical !cut out” was made to appear a very fiati ural thing for one to do. , - ' ■ ' His arrival in Chicago received a similar reception. The thing lie. had long been plan ning, the thing* that had prompted his trip: abroad, which had necessitated the pt-oper'rearranging of his name, was made public! With' a fanfare of trumpets, a sounding of cymbals, -a beating of tom-toms, Hugh Daniel Fitz randolph inaugurated his campaign for the Chicago mayoralty. In the Hjjpoary election these were nominated: Hugh Daniel Fitzran dolph, advocating pure politics; Sam Buffington, fat and puffy and a tool of the trusts; John Dinwoody, lean and lank and a patron of Vicel-Vand Ivan Skimkus, skinny and erratic and a champion .of the working man. Before the primaries, Daniel’s chief rivals, Buffington and Dinwoudy, took scant notice of him, shelving, him in. a category, -with Skimkus, ■ the Socialist, who had no chance whatever. . After his nomination they changed their views. They suddenly realized many things; realized he had been working hours to .their minutes; that his enor. moiis volume of advertising., was not unproductive of results; .that he had a happy faculty of making friends wherever he went; that his popularity was boomlng'dally; and that he con trolled, nearly as many votes as they. . This wBuid never do, decided Buf fington nnd Dinwoody. They Immedi ately-set about to crush the intruder who presum edto enter a domain al ways exclusively . .their own. Thus, when the papers- supporting the mal contents were not- casting their har. poons at each other, they took time to. Shy a concerted volley at the IaterIoi per....

It is a great time saver to have the numbers that are most frequently called written conveniently and placed where you can see them. Some per- sons have this on a card that Is post ed on the. wall-beside the instrument but this sometimes does not look very attractive. It Is better to attach theiri to a card that hangs on the phone intended for this purpose. For In stance on. the card .the busy house wife should have the numbers of the butcher, baker, grocer and other tradesmen. Si S l f i l lJWS PT Ar <0 THE mother or anyone else who#— X sponsors a little girl’s clothes, a photograph of a real dress on a real girl means more than any other sort of picture. The merciless camera re cords what is before it, refusing to be kind to shortcomings and imperfec tion. When the plain, unvarnished tale it tells Is a pleasing one, it is re assuring to know that it can be be lieved. Above is a picture of an every day or school frock for a little miss, portrayed with entire faithfulness. It is a model that may be made up in either coton or wool fabrics and will interest the woman whose responsibili ties include choosing the outfit of a lit tle girl. These practical dresses for children make their appearance far in advance of each season, so that school days may find them all ready In the fall and vacations need not be delayed in the summer. This is one of several very happy combinations of plain and plaid materials that are prettier when they join forces than either can possi bly 4>e* alone. Those old and reliable friends—gingham and chambray—defy anything to be more pleasing than they prove in this frock and there are plenty of colors to choose from. In the picture a fairly light green, some thing like jade, predominates, with gray, black and white giving it variety. There is not much to say of this frock that is not fully told by the pho tograph. Its vest, collar and cuffs, girdle and upper part of the skirt are all of the solid color. A very little stitchery in simulated buttons and buttonholes, done with black nnd gray cotton yarn, add a pretty, painstaking, touch appearing on the collar and cuffs. Once more the joyous hair-bow of gay-striped ribbon is poised on the head of youthful wearers, and it is a most important item in their outfitting. Little girls delight in these crisp bows and soon learn to appreciate their smartness. From top to toes this young lady is well dressed, In unpre tentious, neat and carefully selected things, that educate in her a “sense of clothes.” .. W h a t W ffl W e D o N o w ? M ANY earnest and broad-minded women struggled manfully to win the ballot nnd many had it thrust upoii them. But the agitation for it, before It^was achieved, won over most women to a whole-hearted belief in the justice and the desirability of wom an suffrage. And now that millions of women have the privilege of voting they are asking themselves just how they. are.going to go about exercising it intelligently. Likewise sundry pol iticians are anxious to know just what this new voting power will do to them. It may be some time ' cfore women will make this new power feit —as something to be carefully reck oned with. About the first thing that concerns them is familiarity with questions that are vitally interesting to them as do zens—and as women. They have had much experience In women’s clubs and through them have brought about many noteworthy reforms. It is through these already established or ganizations that they con carry on campaigns of education for them selves and for ethers. Regardless of this or that party, women must make up their minds as to what sort of legislation they want and then under take to get It by means of political parties. In local and in national af fairs they must first Inform themselves as to worthwhile Issues and help to inform others. It Is a game of public ity—the spreading of Information, keeping an eye on the performance of men In office and public officials of ail sorts nnd keeping informed, through newspapers and magazines on policies that are beneficial for stfl the people. Any one at all familiar with the teamwork done by women in their clubs and various organizations, will acknowledge that they are always in terested in benevolences; therefore it is safe to assume that they will under take to reform abuses and to institute various improvements when they be come convinced that they are needed. It appears that the thing most useful to them at this time. Is as clear an -understanding as possible of the planks of the two great political parties and a definite knowledge of the things they want to see accomplished, both in their own local affairs and in national .affairs. Busy as they are, they really have more time to dovote to the study of public questions and of politics tliah men have, for many men are too much tied down to -business, to bread win ning, and cannot find time for any thing outside." It is possible, however, even for busy housewives, to set apart some time for this undertaking. Their time is their own and managed by them, which is an immense advance. It may fall to their lot finally to gather and spread information that will bring about, through the education of public sentiment, the things that are desira ble for the welfare of human beings. Already certain large organizations of women have got together and agreed upon certain issues that they wish to see placed In party platforms. The things they have agreed- to advocate are all beneficial to themselves and to thejr children and therefore to the whole country.

Bardlng was officially notified here of Ma nomination as the Republican can didate for the presidency. His speech ofacceptance is, In part, as follows: Chairman Lodge, members of Notifi cation Committee, members of National Committee, ladies and gentlemen: The- message which you have formally con veyed brings to me a realization of responsibility which Is not underesti mated. It is a supreme task to inter pret the covenant of a great political party, the activities of which are so woven into the history of this repub lic, and a very sacred and solemn HDdertaklDg to utter the faith and as pirations of the many millions who adhere to that party. Tbe party plat form has charted the way, yet, some how, we have come to expect that in terpretation which voices the faith of_ nominees mho m ust1 assume specific teaks.

The RepubUeaflS -©ate halted the barter ot ^ dependent American eminence and in fluence, which it was proposed to ex change for' an obscure and unequal place In the merged government of the world. Our party means to hold the heritage of American nationality un impaired and unsurrendered. The world will not misconstrue. We do not mean to hold aloof. We do not mean to shun a single responsibility of this republic to world civilization. There is no hate In the American heart. We have no envy, no suspicion, no aversion for any people In the vorld. We hold to our rights, and mean to defend, aye, we mean ,£o sus tain the rights of this nation and our cithdens alike, everywhere under the shining sun. Yet there is the cor corfT of amity and sympathy and fraternity In every resolution. There is a genu ine aspiration in every American breast for 8 tranquil friendship with all the world. One may readily sense the con science of our America. I am sure I understand the purpose of the dom inant group of the senate. We were not seeking to defeat a world aspira tion, we were resolved to safeguard America. We were resolved then, even ias we are today, and will be' tomor row, to preserve this free and Inee- pendent republic. In the call of the conscience of America is peace, peace that closes the gaping wound of world war, and si lences the Impassioned voices of in ternational envy and distrust Heed ing this call and knowing as I do the disposition of the Congress, I promise you formal and effective peace so quickly as a Republican Congress can pass Its declaration for a Republican executive to sign. It is better to be the free and disinterested agent of international Justice and advancing, -civilization, with the covenant of conscience, than be shackled by a written compact which surrenders our freedom of ac tion and gives to a military alliance the right to proclaim America’s duty to the world. No surrender of rights to a world council or Its military al liance, no assumed mandatary how ever appealing, ever shall summon, the sons of this republic, to war. Thffir supreme sacrifice shall onl/ be asked for America and Its call honor.- There is a sanctity In that right we will not delegate. Leaving America Independent. Disposed as we are, the way is very simple. Let the failure attending as sumption, obstinacy, impracticability and delay be recognized, and let us find the big, practical, unselfish way to do our part, neither covetous be cause of ambition nor hesitant through fear, but ready to serve ourselves, hu manity and God. With a senate ad vising as the constitution contemplates, I would hopefully approach the nations of Europe and of the earth, proposing that understanding which makes us a willing participant In the consecra tion of nations to a new relationship, to commit the moral forces of the world, America. Included, to peace and International Justice, still leaving Am erica free, independent and self-reliant, but offering friendship to all the world. It is folly to close our eyes to out standing facts. Humanity Is restive, ,much of the world is in revolution, the agents of discord and destruction have wrought Hieir tragedy In pathetic Russia, have lighted their- torches among other peoples, and hope to see America as a part of the great Red conflagraHon. Ours is the temple of liberty under the law, and it is ours to call the Sons of Opportunity to its de fense. America must not only save herself, but ours must be the appealing voice to sober the world. It must be understood that toll alone makes for accomplishment and ad vancement, and righteous possession is the reward of toil, and its incentive. There is no progress except In the sHmulus of competition. ' - The chief trouble today is that'the world war wrought the ,destruction of healthful competition, left our store houses empty, and there Is a minimum production when our need, is max imum. Maxiffiums, not mlnimums, ’is the call of America. It isn’t a new story, because war never fails to leave depleted storehouses, and always im pairs the efficiency of production. War also establishes its higher standards for wages, and they abide. I wish the higher wage to abide, on one explicit condition—that the wage-earncr will give full return for the wage received. Production, More Production. I 'want, somehow, tb appeal' to the sons and daughters of the republic, to every producer, to Join hand and brain In production, more production, honest production, patrloUc produc tion, because patriotic production is no tesB a defense of our best civiliza tion than that of armed force. Profi teering is a crime of commission, un der-production is a crime of omission. We' must work our most and best, else the destructive reaction will come.' . The menacing tendency of the pres ent day is not chargeable'wholly to the unsetUed and fevered conditions caused by' the war. The manifest weakness In popular government lies In the temptation to appeal to grouped Cltizensblpj for political advantage. It would be the blindness of folly to Igpore tho activities In.out own coun- jIffy which are aimed to destroy our economic system, and to commlt'us to .the colossal tragedy which has de stroyed all, freedom and made Russia impotent. This movement is not to be halted In throttled liberties. We must not abridge the freedom of speech, the freedom of press, ..or the freedom of assembly, because there Is no p-omise In repression. These liberties are as sacred as the freedom of religious be lief, as'inviolable, as the rights of. life and the pursuit of happiness. We do hold to the right to crush sedition, to stifle . a menacing contempt. for taw, to stamp out a peril to the safety 11 the republic or Its people, when emer gency calls, because: security and the majesty of; the law are the first es sentials of'liberty. He who threatens destruction of the government by ' tree or flaunts his contempt for lawful authority, ceases to be a loyal citizen and forfeits his rights to the freedom of the republic. No party is indifferent to the welfare of the yage-earner. To us his good fortune is qf deepest concern, and we seek to make that good fortune per manent We do not oppose but ap prove collective bargaining, because that Is an outstanding right, but we are unalterably insistent that its exer cise, must not destroy the ^equally sa cred right of the Individual, In his nec essary pursuit of livelihood. Any American has the right to quit his em ployment, so has every American the. right to seek employment THe group must not endanger the individual, and. w e. must discourage groups preying upon one another, and none shall be allowed to forget that the goverihnent’8 obligations are alike to all the people. No Strike Against Government We are so confident that much of the present-day insufficiency and inefficien cy of transportation are due to the withering hand of government opera tion that we emphasize anew our oppo- SiUon .to government ownership, we. want to expedite the reparation and make sure the mistake is not repeated. A state of inadequate. ..transporta tion facilities,, mainly chargeable to the failure of governmental experi ment, is losing millions to agriculture, it,- is • hindering; industry,5 it' is !menac ing the 'American’ people with “a fuel shortage' little less than-a peril. It em phasizes the present-day problem and suggests that spirit of encouragement and assistance which commits all America to relieve such-an emergency. Gross expansion of currency, and credit have depreciated the dollar Just as expansion and inflation have dis credited the coins of the world. We Inflated in haste, we must deflate In deliberation. We debased the dollar In reckless finance, we must restore in honesty. In all sincerity we promise the pre vention of unreasonable profits, we challenge profiteering with all the mor al force and the legal powers of gov ernment and people, but it is fair, aye, it is timely, to give reminder Uiat law is not the sole corrective of our eco nomic Ills. - Drive Against' Extravagance. Let us call to all the people for thrift and economy, for denial and sac rifice if need be, for a nation-wide drive against extravagance and lux ury, to a recommittal to simplicity of living, to that prudent and normal plan ot life which l8_the health of the re-, public. New conditions, wblcii attend amaz ing growth and extraordinary indus trial development, call for a new and forward-looking program. The- Ameri can farmer bad a hundred and twenty millions to feed in the borne market, .and beard the cry of the world for food and answered It, though he faced an appalling task amid handicaps never encountered before. Contemplating the..defenselessness of the individual .,farmer, to meet the or ganized buyers of bis products and the distributors of the things the. farmer buys, I hold that farmers should not only be permitted but encouraged to loin in co-operative association to reap the Just measure of reward merited by their arduous toll.; Our platform is an earnest pledge of renewed concern for this most essen tial and elemental industry and In both appreciation and interest we pledgq effective expression In law and practice. We will’ hall that co-6pera- tion which again: will make profitable and desirable the ownership and op- eration of comparatively small, farms. Intensively cuIHvated, and which will facilitate the' caring for the products, of farm and orchard without' “the” lamentable waste under present condi tions. , . \ > i . AmerI cavWjjld look with anxiety' on thb discouragement of farming- ac tivity either through the government’s neglect or its pSralysls by sodalisHc practices. A Republican administra tion will be committed to renewed re gard for agriculture, and seek the participation of farmers in curing the Ills - Justly complained o t' and aim to place the American .farm where it ought to be—highly ranked In -Ameri can activities and fully^ sharing the highest good fortunes of .American life. ■..?■■.'■. . -'.'V 11 Becomingly associated with’ this subject are the policies of Irrigation and reclamation, so essential. to agri- cttltural expansion, and the continued development of the great and wonder ful rWesL It is our purpose to con tinue and enlarge federal aid, not In sectional partiality, but, for the good sf all America. I believe the budget system will ef fect iH necessary, helpful reformation, and reveal business methods to gov ernment business.

Suppose Coxis a divorced mau— suppose he is in favor of beer and wine—suppose he believes in hold ing political conferences on Sun day instead of attending preach ing—does anybody believe that all these things would cause him to lose a single vote in North Carolina? The Record man is a pretty good gusser. Way back in the winter The Record announced that the population of Mocksville would be 1,143. The official figures were received last Tuesday by The Re cord from the census department, and the population of Mocksville was given as 1,146, We missed the population by only 3. One pf these days we are going to tell the people who is going to be the next presi dent and the number of votes he will get. Some Fine Wheat Yields. M. J. Hendrix, of Cana, on 45 acres of wheat threshed 1,440 bush els to the acre by measure, or a- bout 35 by weight. Granville Leagans, of Cana, made an average by measure, of 23 bushels to the acre on his entire crop, aud the weight went around $6 pounds to the bushel. 0 . R. Allen, of near Cana, thresh ed 870 bushels of wheat, making an average of 21 bushels to the acre. John Emerson, of Route l, re ports a. yield of 27/4 bushels of wheat to the acre this year, which is mighty good wheat. The Record would be glad to get a report from different farmers in Davie giving the amount of wheat made aud the average per acre. North Carolina Wheat. / The Davie Record appears anx ious that The Observer be apprised of what some of the progressive farmers in that county are doing in the way of wheat-growing. It makes note of the fact that on the Cooleemee farms, under the man agement of Mr. H. 'C. Koontz, one of Davie’s best farmers, the wheat on a 25-acre tract this year thresh ed out 1,040 bushels, or nearly 42 bushels to the acre. Other acres on the Koontz farm will yield a- bout the same. The Record also puts into evidence that the Feezor Farm, on part of the land cultivat ed, produced 25 bushels to the acre, "and the M. J. Hendrix Farm will do much better than this” The Re cord says threshing Season is over,” and it declares that “when it comes to growing wheat Davie County will be found in the front ranks. Thepeople who want to see "fine farming” are invited to visit Davie. The Observer has known Davie is a county ^ g M j^ n aly fine crops, not onl^inos&&ty jj„t jn com, cotton, tobacco and clover. A yield of 42 bushels, the record made on the Cooleemee Farm, is bringing the wheat production of North Carolina up in the neighbor hood of what it should be, although The Observer expects the returns from threshers this season to in dicate still higher yields. We are reminded that in passing through California’s golden-brown fields a few weeks ago with Gen. J . S. Carr, the genius of the Occoneeche Farm —the Generalinsisted that the fieid we were looking at was alfalfa, and it turned out to be barley—he told of a wheat field on his farm back in North Carolina from which he will thresh 100 bushels to the acre. The splendid appearance of the wheat field in all sections of the State before the reapers went over them might well incline the people to expect reports of materi ally increase yields per acre in the forthcoming reports. The county papers are engaged in a good work when they devote space to the wheat yields scored by individual farmers. It inspires to competition, and it is a good day for the State when the spirit of competition among the farmers becomes thoroughly arous ed.—Charlotte Observer. Winston-Salem Retains Trains Nos. 21 and 22. Raleigh, July 23.—The corpora tion commission today issued an or der by which Winston-Salem holds her grip on Southern trains number 21 and 22.

Bids Received For Road Work Id Rowan. Greensboro, July 20.—Bids were received at the division office here of the State Highway commission today for the construction of a stretch of highway in Rowan coun ty between Salsbury and the Davie county line. The work includes about six and one-half miles of top soil road and about three-fourths of a mile of macadam. It was an- nouced today that the contracts would not be let for several days, pending consideration of the bids. W. E. Graham, of Mount UIla1 was the lowest bidder on the top soil work, offering to do the work for $42,046.30, J. A. Kreis & Co., of Knoxville, Tenu., were the low est bidders on the three-fourths of a mile of macadam road with a bid of $22,708. World to End August 4th. Marion, Ohio, July 22.—Senator Warren G. Harding has been warn ed in a letter from an astrologist of Orono, Me., that both he and Gov emor Cox may as well suspend their campaign efforts now because after August 4th there isn’t going to be any more world. The letter says: “August 4, 1920, the sun and moon, Venus, Mercury, Mars, Ju piter, Saturn and Neptune will be on one side of the world, with Ura nus in a continuation of the line on the other side. "Isaiah xiii, 13, will be fulfilled and the nations who participated in the World War will be submerg ed by the Atlantic Ocean.” Regardless of ' what Governor Cox may do, the Harding head quarters will keep open.

We are printing below the of ficial population of Davie county, as furnished us by the Bureau of the Census, showing the gains and losses since 1910: 1920 1910 Calahaln 1,259 1,169 Clarksville 1,257 1U28 Farmington ' 2,216 2,305 Fulton 1,251 1,282 Jerusalem ' 3,493 3,368 Mocksville 2,584 2,566 ShadyGrove 1,518 1,570 Advance town 280 283 Mocksville townfe 1,146 1,063 From the above figures it will be seen that while Advance lost 3 in population in the past ten years, Mocksville made a gain of 83. The entire county made a net gain of 184; Jerusalem, Calahaln, Clarks ville and Mocksville townships all made gains, while Farmington, Fulton and Shady Grove town ships show, a decrease. Jerusalem made the biggest gain which was 115, and Farmington showed the greatest loss which was 89. The total population of the county is 13,578. About twenty thousand of Davie’s citizens have migrated to Winston-Salem. The 1930 cen sus ^will show us up better for by that time most of the laud hogs and town knockers will have died and gone to the place where all knockers go. A brighter day is ahead of us. p 1 ...

Upon, irrigated farms, water may be turned into the field to provide moisture which, with the heat,' will start the plague and kill the worms. “From this stage the worm enters the pupa period. He spins no' cocoon, as many caterpillars do, .but hangs himself, head up, among tffe stems and swings In a little loop of silk, like a steeple-jack—see this chap! ' “You’ve heard of the bollworm—so injurious to corn and cotton? He comes to our aid in the fight against the alfalfa caterpillar, and, by one of those queer natural compensations, does us a favor by devouring both worms and pupa. Odd, isn’t it? Lay Eggs All Summer. ‘Unless the worm is destroyed, the butterfly you have admired emerges from the pupa in a few days and be gins to lay eggs to establish a new cycle. This goes' on all summer. “Control is accomplished by cutting alfalfa close and clean. We clear out our fence corners and ditches, and co operate. with our neighbors In clearing their land. This leaves no shelter for the caterpillar to live, in from one al falfa crop to the next, and the few which do survive find food mighty scarce, and many perish of starvation. “Disking with a harrew over the meadows after a crop has been moved destroys many of the Insects in the egg, worm or pupa stage. Besides killing A Parasite ef the Alfalfa Caterpillar. the Insects which are preparing to ravage the next erop, the disking process, as every one knows, is a mighty geed thing for the alfalfa. “We also use a brush drag well weighted and run it over the alfalfa meadows after ,the disking is done. The drag gets Into the hollows and crevices where the harrow has not touched aad crushes the insect in whatever stage it finds him. Elven if the first cut has been ruined by the pest, these methods of irrigation and cultivation will insure the reduction of the caterpillar in time to save the next cutting from his at tacks. “These methods are recommended by the department of agriculture, and we hope to prevent most of the annual loss caused by the activities of yonder but terfly.” BEST PRACTICE WITH CLOVER Crop Should Be Cut When Seed Is In Dough—Chaff Makes Good Bed ding for Stock. The clover should be cut when the seed is in the dough, and when well cured raked up early In the morning and put under cevor. It Is the prac tice with some growers to let the clover after ft Is cut remain in the swath for several Weeks;. there is a loss of seed if the weather should be wet The better method is after the olovor is well cured to haul to bare or barrack and have the seed bulled out when the weather is cold and dry. The clover chaff makes excellent bed ding for stock. It is a good practice to top-dress the grain with the chaff. INFESTATION OF HESSIAN FLY As Rooult of Many Wheat Growers Planting Too Early Last Fall Outbreak Is Likely. A shortage of . farm labor and un favorable weather conditions at plant ing time combined to influence many wheat growers in planting their grain too early last fall. This has resulted in a heavy infestation of Hessian fly in about all of the early planted wheat of last fall. Unless winter wheat growers can be induced to unite In a concerted movement to observe the approved methods of combating the Heflsian fty during the summer and fall of 1920. it seems that a disastrous general out break of the pest very probably will occur In 1921.

Women's complaints often prove*to be nothing else but kidney trouble, or tbe result, of kidney or bladder disease. If the kidneys are not in a healthy con* dition, they may catfse tbe otber organs to become diseased. Tou may suffer pain in tbe back, head ache and loss of ambition. Poor health makes you nervous, irrita- hle and may be despondent; it makes any ona so. But hundreds of women claim that Br.

But those who must think ahead In the matter of the styles, havp already giv en time and attention to frocks for early fall, because they must be ready for the young woman whose school work Is resumed In September. They are fore-handed and blaze tbe trail that mothers from one ocean to the other will follow, In outfitting their daughters who are still in school. Even when materials have gravi tated to something like normal In price, only those of substantial qual ity and plain texture are chosen for school girls. Reliable fabrics and sim ple designing are for them. Many schools prescribe a uniform for every day wear, and this makes easy sailing for those who must outfit the student. But there are other things besides the uniform to consider, among them frocks to be worn on the street and on occasions when the student is not In school. Two new models that are pretty and practical ought to please their youth ful owners, for they are becoming to lithe young figures. Brown is a fa vorite color and the frock at the left Chicago, 111.—Hot weather upsets the strongest stomach and causes seri ous trouble for the weak ones, so word is now going out to thousands of. eatonic users that they should, dur ing this hot weather, be on the safe side and take one eatonic. tablet shout half an hour before meals, as uell as after eating. Do this and Veep the excess acids and poisonous gases from forming in stomach and bowels. Eatonic acts quickly; it will bolp the appetite and take away the hot-weather, feverish, thirsty feeling from mouth and stomach, because it takes up the excess acids, poisons and gases and carries them out of the body and, of course, when the cause ®f the trouble is removed, there can be no bad feeling. Eatonic is like a bit of candy, and is recommended to all as a safe, sure remedy these hot Hays for stomach and bodily troubles, caused from overeating and drinking cold things. Adv.

Caps for M orning W ear y* Zri ' Vfc / -- 1 J Ila 1 ; T f t ; k 4 * n / } ^ T ’r^ r ' i I ¥ THE woman who meets the acid test of the breakfast table and the bathing beach and succeeds In looking attractive, at these places, is the en vied of her sisters. It is no small un dertaking, yet there are many who succeed—and there, are many who fail In it Almost everyone can manage the garb for early morning successfully— but Uie bathing suit is more difficult and takes considerable'study. It is of less importance than the dress for the beginning of tlie day. Morning dress must be suited to the morning’s occupation. In these serv- antiess days most women must en gage themselves with the business of getting breakfast ready or helping to get it. It Is not the hearty meal our forbears indulged In, for most modern households have learned Uie wisdom of a light breakfast, but it requires very practical dressing. Besides the one-piece, simple cotton frocks that come from the weekly laundering look ing crisp and sprightly, there are. pop ular breakfast sets that include a skirt and a jacket, or blouse, made, of the same washable materials. These are the only wear for early morning working hours. The woman who need not concern herself with housework may indulge In silk breakfast jackets or those of georgette or chiffon. Pretty as Uiey are they are not more pleasing than those crisp cotton frocks worn by her busier sisters. mm is successfully made In this color of any of the plain wool fabrics that can be depended on for service. It is a one-piece affair having a blouse ornt rnented with braid in the same color, that has the effect of embroidery. There are flaring sleeves with hand some braiding and a plain skirt set onto the blouse about six inches below the normal waistline. Covered buttons are set on in a loop at each side of the skirt. The plain round neck which youth may venture, to wear, is slashed at the front with a tiny vestee inserted made of lace, and there is a heavy silk cord finished with a knot, about the easy waist. The vogue for accordion plaiting is to hold over into the fall, according to the pretfy 'dress shown at the right This is also a OnejPiece, model with plaited skirt set onto a plain bodice having a short jacket with long sleeves over it A very wide girdle, finished with pointed ends falling from short loops, fastens at the left side. The jacket’ is outlined with two rows of narrow braid In white and the frock, in this instance, dark blue. There is a small sailor collar at the back. These are pretty frocks that will serve with out a wrap for fall, and with a warm coat will last out the winter. Whatever the sort of dress, a pretty breakfast cap worn with it is the strongest ally of fair woman at the breakfast table. These littie affairs of ribbons ,and laces and all other gay and frivolous fabrics are made In un ending variety so that there is a cap for 'every face. One has only to ex periment to find it, and this experi menting is more worth while than we are likely to imagine. The breakfast cap is the least' ex pensive of luxuries and the easiest bit of finery to make, as may be gathered by looking at the samples shown in the picture. One of them is made of wide satin ribbon fitted to the'head by rows of shirrtngs. It has two bands of shirred lace across the front bor dered with narrow flutings of ribbon and a rosette of this narrow ribbon at each side. A frill of lace all around the cap finishes it. Satin ribbon about two and a half Inches wide, and lace cut In triangles form the crown of the other cap. The ribbon is placed In a band extending from back to front and from side to side with the spaces between filled In with lace. Ribbon is ,shirred In a band about the head, finished with bow and ends at the back.

The following will be fo u n d one w o rthq u ite while: Royal Sou p.— Soak one cupfv of bread crumbs In one-half cupfu, of milk. Add the ,ual ~ yolks of three hard-cooked eggs rubbed through a sieve and the breast of a stewed chicken, also rubbed through a sieve; add three and one-half cupfuls of stock, highly seasoned, one and one- half cupfuls of scalded milk, and two awl one-half tablespoonfuls each of flour and butter cooked together. Season with salt and pepper. Pressed Beef Flank.—Wipe, remove superfluous fat and roll a flank ol beef. Put Into a kettle cover with boiling water and add one table spoonful of salt, one-half teaspoonful of peppercorns, a small piece of bay leaf and the bone of a shank of veal. Cook slowly until the meat is very tender. There should be very little liquor in the kettle when the meat is done. Arrange the meat In a deep pan, pour over the liquor, cover and press with a heavy weight Serve cold. Chicken a Ia Stanley—Melt one- fourth of a cupful of butter, add one large onion thinly sliced and two broilers cut in pieces for serving. Cov er and cook slowly for ten minutes, then add one'cupful of chicken stock and cook until the meat is tender. Remove the chickens, rub the stock and onions through a sieve ahd add one and one-half tablespoonfuls each of butter and flour cooked together. Add cream to make the sauce of the right consistency. Season with salt and pepper. Arrange the chicken on a serving dish, pour around the sauce, and garnish the dish with sliced bananas dipped in flour and sauted in butter. Boiled Dressing.—To one cupful of beaten eggs, a mixture of white and yolk, add an ^qual quantity of mild vinegar. Cook over hot water till thick. Season when ready to use. Will keep for weeks In a jar well sealed and placed in a cool place. - If we have whispered truth, - "Whisper no longer; ’** Speak as the tempest does.Sterner and stronger.—John G. Whittier. SUMMER MEATS. Chicken, yeal, sweetbreads and lamb are tbe-summer meats most commonly _ _ _ _ _ _ liked nn8 served. b U f y i Broiled Chicken.—Clean ft tender chicken and split It down the back. I 0 Break the joints, take t f f I M out the breast bone, wipe P * . clean, sprinkle with salt UpjrpKffiyrTj and pepper and rub with soft butter. Broil and serve with melted butter. Breaded Veal Cutlet.—Have, the cut lets less than an inch thick; parboil aDd drain, then cool. Season with salt and pepper, dip in beaten egg and crumbs and fry until brown. Serve with tomato sauce or with a border of green peas. Chicken Galloseh.—Cut into dice two medium sized raw potatoes. But into a fryingpan two tablespooufuls Cf olive oil and when hot add the potato dice. Stir to keep from burning and cook five minutes. Then add a dash of paprika, a cupful of boiling water, a crushed bean of garlic, a cupful, of cooked chicken chopped-fine or a can of boned chicken; salt to taste. Cover and cook until the potatoes are done, stirring frequently. Mayonnaise dressing, using olive oil, is the salad par excellence, but a tasty substitute can be prepared from corn oil, using the same method of mixing. Tlie secret of a good mayonnaise Is freshness of the egg and well-chilled ingredients and utensils. Drop a fresh egg yolk into a well-chilled bowl placed In a pan of Ice water; add a half teaspoonful of salt, a teaspoonful of powdered sugar, a pinch of mus tard, a dash of cayenne and a table spoonful of lemon juice. Beat well before adding any oil, then but a few drops at a time, beating well between each addition. Thin the mixture with vinegar or lemon juice, adding more oil until three-quarters of a cupful has been used. Mayonnaise to be good should be thick and ,creamy. When serving it in the salad It may be thinned with cream. Wood Fibers. The common ideas concerning wood fibers are not justified by the extended tests of the United States forest prod ucts laboratory. Each species of wood does hot have its characteristic fiber length, but a greater difference may be found between the fibers of an Indi vidual tree than between the average lengths in different species. The length of fiber does not seen to affect the strength of the ,wood, as the longest fibers often belong to the weak ist ma terial.

CHAPTER XIV.—Continued. —18— Daniel joined in merrily and more than held his own in the three-cor nered melee. Having bought a paper, he was publishing the sort of-yellow journalism the masses wanted. Very naturally his enemies attacked first what seemed to them his most vulnerable spot “Why did he change his name?” “Why did lie need an alias?” “What foul deed Imd he done and essayed to cover up?” Tliese were the questions hurled broadcast; these thd ones they fain would answer. "In vestigators” were dispatched to Mary land. All went well—or ill for them, because nothing but good could be found of him—until his nineteenth year. Then they encountered a blank wall. There were five years unaccount ed for. His family was unimpeachable. The Daniels of Roanoke county were of the South’s first people. The Fitz- randolphs of England and Virginia had distinguished themselves on more than several occasions. Plainly, there was nothing here for their purpose. But those five years! When they had given up all hope of ever sounding it and were searching In despair for a successful plummet, Daniel very deliberately laid bare on the first page of his newspaper every thing It contained. With genial can dor, and not without relish, he nar rated his five years In trampdom. In justice to himself, In justice to his party, he felt he could do no less. Be tween the ages of nineteen and twen ty-four his had been an eventful life, and the story thereof was not dull. The bomb exploded with a deafen ing crash, and with a howl and a shriek his foes were upon him. Rend ing the disclosure as a pack of wolves, they clawed It, gnashed it, made it ugly and held It up greedily to the public gaze. And then when the rumble and bom bast had died away, when the blood and smoke had passed, Hugh Daniel Fitzrandolph stood before the populace —a hero. The city which reveres the memory of a man who, starting as a clerk, later saddled with debts, hewed his way through adversity and became the “Merchant Prince” of the world, of another who struggled from a butcher’s apprenticeship at two dollars a week to the pinnacle of the Union Stock Yards, of scores of others of ignoble beginnings and vast achievements—such a city was not slow to erect a pedestal for one who had once been a vagabond and was now become a multi-millionaire candi date for the highest honor the city of his adoption could pay him. Thus, for the hour, Daniel had become an idol of the people. Daniel rushed his campaign onward with a tireless zeal that outdistanced his rivals and lost them to view. Here, as In the wheat pit, his endurance and energy were a marvel to all who knew him. He snatched only five hours from the twenty-four for sleep, and less than one hour for meals. Every min ute of the remaining eighteen was a busy minute. ' The campaign came to a whirlwind finish. Daniel rose at daybreak on election eve and was on the go cease lessly for twenty hours. While smoking a good-night cigar with Hunt at two o’clock next morning be remarked: "Altogether, Harry, It has cost me a warm million dollars. . .But It has been worth it—every cent. I’ve had a mil lion dollars’ worth of fun.” Yet an hour later, had one looked In the front room of Daniel’s apartment one would have doubted It The room was quite .dark, and before the front windows overlooking Grant park he was sitting very silent and motionless. A gray fog was rolling damply In from the lake, thickening the night with Its clammy embrace. From the avenue below came sounds of an irresponsible quartette. They were rendering “The Heart Bowed Down,” and even their untutored throats, guttural with libations, could not wholly mar the tragic sweetness of Balfe's sad melody. The melancholy straiDs, something softened by the distance, floated dole fully up to him. Music—even ' the worst—always had a singular effect upon Daniel. Good or bad, he could never listen to it without feeling with in him a responsiveness transcending the composer’s note. It was as though, sounding the keynote, he soared on in to realms the composer essayed, yet failed to attain. BBs elbows resting on the arms of the chair, his chin on his interlaced fingers, he sat for a long while gazing into the foggy .gloom. And mirrored in his face, was an ineffable loneliness which by its very profundity must needs be mute. He pressed his hands to his fore head and slowly shook his head, again and again, his eyes closed. • . Yes. Yes, he had.falled once more; Be would fall uext Ome- He would always fail. He could not forget He could never forget. Daniel started, sat up suddenly, looked round with a jerk. It was past nine o’clock. He had been asleep in his chair five hours. After casting his ballot the day seemed a void. There was nothing more to do. It was all over now. Al ready the election was practically set tled. He lunched In an obscure little restaurant and went motoring. Returning, however, he left the car at Twenty-fourth street continued afoot toward town, his raincoat collar turned up, his soft hat down, and wan dered aimlessly about, tailing studi ous care to sliun his usual haunts. , CHAPTER XV. Al! afternoon of that raiDy April fourth, Daniel roamed restlessly about the loop, until, shortly befpre dark, the returns began coming In. About the newspaper offices he mingled with the crowds, black smudges againstYsaining streets, watching the figures flashed by precincts on screens; and when, as often occurred, he was greeted effu sively by friends and acquaintances, he would answer perfunctorily and stride on to the next bulletin. From the start it was plainly seen which way the election tended. Din- woody was carrying the First, Fourth. Fifth, Tenth, Sixteenth and Eighteenth wards by a big plurality. Fitzrandolph and Buffington were running neck and neck. Skimkus, the Socialist, was last. Before eight o’clock the winner was known. John Dinwoody, champion of vice and crime, was elected mayor "of Chi cago. With a sickening dissolution, Dan iel’s castle came crumbling about his ears, and he lay among the ruins and the dust, bruised and stunned by the utter havoc, yet unreslgned to the in evitable. Scenting a storm of questions anent his unexplained absence, Daniel fore stalled it by outlining to his secretary a philanthropic plan of such magni tude that the curiosity of the two was drowned In astonishment. “I believe you’re kidding I” exclaimed Hunt. “Do you know what such a thing would cost?” “Fully”—glancing over the letters and telegrams beside his plate. “It would take the bulk of your for tune, rich as you are.” “Not ‘would,’ Harry, 1Wtll.1 ” Putting aside his mall, and devouring a thick steak as he talked, Daniel continued: “I shall establish these houses In every Goose! What Did He Mean? He Was a Full Hour Early. town of a hundred thousand or more. In New York, Philadelphia and Chi cago there Wdll be one to every two hundred thousand inhabitants—or more if needful. They will be self-sup porting, nonprofit-making. Those who can afford will have food and shelter at the net cost of provision. Those who cannot will have both free. Above all else, I want no publicity. In fact, I prefer having my name left out of it altogether. I wish you two would re member that, and act ^accordingly. Each of these settlements, by the way, will be known as an Esther Strom me morial.” Hunt interposed. “Esther Strom? Let me see—why, that woman was an anarchist I” “She was something more besides, Harry. She was a great altruist.” Daniel looked down, stirring his coffee slowly and thoughtfully. “And she did me an irremediable wrong,” he quietly ended. Hunt burst out: “Then why the—” ‘Tm hanged If I know, Harry I. I suppose it is a queer notion. We all have them, don’t we?” He added in an odd voice: “Perhaps I deserved all I got Anyway; I believe she was a martyr,” _ , “A martyr to anarchy!” “But still a martyr to what she con sidered right.” . “Steady, Dan," said.H unt “You’re getting morbid. .Come along to the pit today. 'There’s something' stirring in summer wheat It’ll wake you up; make, you your old self-again.” . “No use, Harry. Pm finished with speculating.” 11You- talk -like a has-been! Why, you’re JuSt starting In life. You’ve got to do something. A man like you can’t loaf. WhaPs it going to be?” “Giving to others.” ' Hunt jerked his head Impatiently. “I mean what business, what line?-You’ve got some big. thing up your sleeve, Dan. .Out with it” - Daniel dabbled hls fingers In a fin ger-bowl. While -drying them on a napkin the vertical lines appeared sharply between his brows. He lighted a cigarette. He shoved his chair back, stood up. “Henceforth I am going to take my happiness in my own way. I learned how at daybreak this morning. I am going to give, gppi, give. And I won’t atop giving until the last cent is gone. “Dan, I believe you’ve gone crazy.” “And I believe,” said the secretary, who read his Bible on occasion, “that Mr. Fitzrandolph shows a very keen wisdom. Furtoermore—well, there is a verse in Saint Matthew, which runs: ‘Ye are the salt of the earth. . . .’ ” Jor.as, the valet, touched his sleeve. “A special delivery letter, sir.” Taking the square envelope from the servant’s salver, without observ ing the superscription, toe secretary opened it and perused the contents. He knitted his brows. “Puzzling,” he-murmured, scratching the back of his?hend. “It’s anonymous, has neither beginning nor end—” He looked suddenly at the envelope, then, with an apology, handed the message to his employer. “I didn’t notice it. It’s marked ‘personal.’ ” One glance at the sheet of note- paper, and Daniel sank into his chair. With his strong fingers he pinned the note to the table, breathing rapidly through dilated nostrils. Hunt, sitting next to him, recalled afterward that it was the only time in all toe years he had known him that he had ever seen toe man’s hand tremble. Daniel looked up, stared blankly a moment at the two silently questioning faces. His lip quivered slightly. “Boys, Pve received startling news. Pve changed my mind about giving everything away. I’ll go ahead with those houses. But I’ll go a little saner. In a little saner manner, you under stand. And, boys, I am going to do that big thing!” He sprang up. “Jonas! Call a good livery stable. I want their best saddle horse at twelve sharp. Craig, make an appoint ment for tomorrow morning with Stanley Graham, the architect ’Phone for toe head barber downstairs, Jonas. Mention ten dollars to him." Then, without any of them know ing what It was all about, toe specu lator, the secretary, and toe valet, had their hands seized and wrung with' a vim that crushed their fingers. Hunt, burning with curiosity, per mitted his eye to rest momentarily upon toe opened note lying on the table. He could make nothing out of it. It began without preface and was un signed. It consisted of two questions, written In a flowing, girlish hand: “Do you remember our last appoint ment? Will you keep it today?” * * * • . ~ * * As the superbly lithe, red-haired young woman mounted with cool com posure on the sorrel horse, cantered serenely past toe Grant monument in Lincoln park she glanced at her watch and saw it was one o’clock. A garden er spading the soft ground beside the bridle-path stopped his work, as well anyone might, to follow her with ad miring gaze. There was a delicious “earthy” smell of spring In the air, a vernal quickening all about. Presently—she had passed toe end of the hillock just north of toe monn> ment—she turned in her saddle, and perceived far to the south a dark shape growing rapidly larger. She jerk ed the reins precipitately, wheeled about, started back in alarm. Her ad mirable tranquillity had vanished. Goose! What did he mean? He was a full'hour early. Escape was cut off. Quickly she guided her horse into the concrete arch monument—and waited. Her per turbation increased. Her gloved hand toyed nervously with her riding crop. Her heart pounded against her side. She smoothed for the fifth time her stylish riding-habit, adjusted for the tenth time the pointed hat atop her Titian hair. What did he mean? He was an hour early— Now she could hear the rhythmic thud of toe hoof-beats. They were coming with break-neek speed. Louder and nearer, louder and nearer, louder and nearer— A form shot past. Her heart leapt to her throat. Tlien toe scuffle of a horse checked in a headlong gallop, swiftly return ing sounds, and toe archway was dark ened by a broad-shouldered, athletic man astride a heaving, foam-flecked steed. His age sat lightly upon him. Hs looked much younger than he was. He had swept pff his hat, and his thick black hair, matted damply against hla forehead, showed never a trace of gra/. He was distinguished rather than good-looking, and the skin of his newly—and wholly—shaven face was as fresh, as clear, and as glowing as her own. Stirring within toe minds of these two, who had beyond question proved their love for one another, who had known sorrow and bitterness and de spair, who had traveled years to reach this moment, treading a long circle to fuse It at last, were—who shall say what thoughts and emotions? But suppose I tell you what the gardener, spading the soft ground be side the bridle-path, overheard? “ . . . Well, Kate, how are you? You came a .little early. Two was the hour, you knqw. . . . ” “ . . . Dan, I like you ever so much better without toe beard. . . (THE END.) F A R M P O U L T R Y BREAK FOWL OF BROODINESS Hen Should Be Confined to Small Coop Raised Off Ground, Preferably With Slat Bottom. TVlien hens become nroody, they should be “broken up” as quickly as possible, for the sooner this is done the sooner they will resume laying. To break a hen. of broodiness she should be confined to a small coop raised off toe ground, preferably with a slat bottom. Give her plenty of wa ter to drink; she may be fed or not, as desired. Not much difference will be found in the time required to break her of broodiness, whether she is fed or made to fast, United States depart ment of agriculture poultry specialists say. Usually from three to six days’ confinement'will break her, but some heas require 10 to 12 days. The broody hen will be recognized by her inclination to stay on toe nest at night, toe ruffling of her feathers and her picking at anyone who approaches her. and by the clucking noise sho makes. The-fact that her broodiness has been broken up can be recognized by the disappearance of these symp toms. Took It Back.

Pickpocket—He thinim fie did. POULTRY FOR GENERAL FARM Hen Is Main Dependence for Increas ing Meat Supply—Farmer Mcvt Determine for Himself. The hen, first and last, is the main dependence for increasing the supply of white meat and eggs on a farm, but she requires the aid of turkeys, guineas, geese, and ducks just as, on a dairy farm, the cow requires the aid of pigs, sheep, and goats. The setting' of toe standard at 100 hens per farm is safe, but no such arbitrary stand ard can be set for the other kinds of poultry, »iy,the poultry specialists of the United States department of ag riculture. The small farm, with grain fields of neighboring farms in proximity to the barn and dooryard. would, perhaps, be better without turkeys.* The farm through which no streams run an-i which has no large pond would per haps be better without ducks. But the circumscribed farm on which tur keys would be a disadvantage may b* well supplied with streams and ponds so that ducks would be unusually profitable, and the farm that has n-> streams and ponds may have lar^s range for turkeys. Each farm family will have to determine for itself what S u r e ReSiei I IKDJKSTiCsi25 Ca s (j? ® Isu-A U S not V-iQfer I S ureR eiief f m S l f i g i g r TheAEtIsepticPoivd^rt“» Sb ^ - ^ “ OUt OiBlisipr*an q si\ !takes the friction fron*^ • jens the feet and sniiHe*) light.

TaK= FOOD SUPPLY FOR CHICKENS Mineral, Nitrogenous and Carbon aceous Constituents Should Be Furnished for Hens. In supplying feed to fowls, there are three kinds of constituents which should be present in certain fairly well fixed proportions if toe desired results are to be obtained most economically. These constituents are mineral, ni trogenous, and- carbonaceous, all of which are contained in corn, wheat, oats, and barley, but not in the right proportions to give the greatest egg yield. In addition, some animal feed and green feed should be supplied.— United States Department of Agricul ture.
