Georgia Delegates' entry into Boston Greeted with Cheer— Visitors Accorded with Cordial Time by Citize Boston, Mass., Sept. 1914. The Beinnial Movie Committee of the Grandhited Order of Odd Fellows avened in this city on Monday sept. 14th. The opening session as called to order by Grandmaster Edward H. Morris of Gago at 10 o'clock Monday morng. About five thousand deleges and visitors from all over e country were in attendance.The sessions were held in Bole's Temple, Berkeley streeted Columbus avenue. Beginning with Saturday night, when the Savah delegation and others aided, things began to boom and city took on a different air. The buildings we decorated with bunting and pious other decorations which led greatly to the occasion, and during the entire week the citie presented a patriotic appearance. The citizens, in general, joined in the movement assisted in every way in entaining the visitors, and every caution was used to protect strangers while here. A hear welcome and courteous treatment were accorded them on everside. On the Saturday meeting, everybody as looking forward to the spec train that would bring the Georgia delegation to the convention the other states in the union seemingly being forgotten. "On any corner you could hear the title query "When will the special arrive bearing the 50 delegates from Georgia?" Thousands of people were gathered in Back Bay station at 6 o'clock on Sunday afternoon when the Georgia spiral pulled under the shed, withts twelve coaches. There was an animated scene as the delegates alighted from the train. A rousingneer went up and singing whichasted for fully a quarter of an hour resounded for blocks bound the station. It was a moment in the history of the B. M. C. chich will long remain fresh in the memory of those gathered to wness the arrival of the stalwar sons of the state whose numerical strength surpassed that of any other state in the union. The public exercises were held on Monday morning and the temple was packed to its apacity. After the usual formalities, the meeting was turned over to the master of ceremonies. There were many piminent speakers on the program and some interesting and impressive speeches were made. Leutenant Governor Erry, of Mass., spoke in behalf of the state and Mayor Curley made the address in behalf of the citizens of Boston. Col. Henry Lincoln Johnson, of Atlanta, respliding in a very eloquent manner. After the literary program was concluded, Grand Dister Morris appointed the credentials committee, Dr. B. W. S. Luiels, of Savannah, Ga., being one of the appointees on this committee. In the afternoon the meeting was again called to order, or the purpose of going into a temporary organization, but was called off on account of the starment of Grand Secretary James F. Needham, that the roll of th delegates was left at the order's headquarters in Philadelphia. Monday night an electrical street, parade was held under the management of the "count honor." The procession burned at Dartmouth street and Commonwealth avenue with 1200 i line. At, Hamilton street, where the "court of honor" was located, upwards of 800 lights were turned on. by Councillon James Vatson, who was appointed to the duty by Mayor Curley. Tuesday morning's session was opened at 11:15 o'clock by the Grand master. After reading the minutes of the previous session; the election of a chief secretary was called for. There were three candidates placed in nomination, namely, W. R. Smith, of Illinois; W. T. Francis, of Minnesota, and J. H. Johnson, of North Carolina. the real race for the position being between Smith and Francis. The roll call of the states was had and the first battle for supremacy was begun. Georgia lined up for Francis and out of 317 votes, delivered to him 311, six voting for Smith. This fight tested the strength of the two factions, and Georgia appeared the weaker, as her candidate only received 88% votes from all the other states. The election resulted in Smith being returned victor with 793% votes, while Francis received but 399%. Tuesday afternoon eleven committees were appointed. Practically the entire afternoon was taken up in listening to the grand master's address which consumed nearly four hours. The grand master took this opportunity to defend himself against the many newspaper statements that were made against him for the past year or so and in answering questions that he was called upon to reply to concerning these attacks. Never before in the history of the order was such a tirade of abuses which lasted for several hours, heaped upon the anti Morris administration faction. Morris was indeed very strong in denouncing those who had attacked him. Many things that were called for and many that were not, were mentioned by him in his address. B. J. Davis, of Atlanta, Ga., made several attempts to gain the floor for the purpose of refuting some of the statements of the grand master, but was unable to do so, the grand master ruling him out of order. During and after the onslaught of the grand master upon Davis, Link Johnson and A. D. Jones, of Atlanta, Georgia was the recipient of many a slur and complimentary remark by delegates from other states, but it appeared that all from the state whose vitriolic remarks of the grand master were aimed at was composed and allowed them to pass unnoticed. At the conclusion of the grand master's address, the session adjourned. Wednesday morning at 10 o'clock, the meeting convened for its third day's session. The best portion of the time was taken up in hearing reports of the grand officers, at the conclusion of which the question of propositions was gone into. A resolution was read not to consider any propositions in the book of propositions, on the ground that the book of propositions was not sent out within the limited time as specified in the general laws. No sooner had the resolution been read than a motion was made to lay it on the table. Immediately another heated fight was precipitated, which lasted for some time, every now and then, during the course of the spirited arguments, cheers resounding throughout the house. The balloting began and every political scheme was resorted to. The motion to lay the matter on the table finally prevailed and then began the passing on resolutions. Only one proposition was taken up and that was rejected. But very little business was transacted on Thursday morning and that consisted of hearing the reports of a few committees. The session lasted about one hour and adjourned on account of the parade that was scheduled to take place. Early in the morning, the crowd began to gather in the streets. In every part of the city you, could see hundreds of people going to and fr preparing for the parade, and it was indeed a The Knights of Moses held a very impressive funeral service at Glenwood, Ga., last Sunday. Supreme Grand Chief S. T. Redd, D. D., of this city was to have officiated at the funeral but through an unavoidable delay missed his train and therefore could not attend the services. About 100 members present and the friends who attended the funeral were very much impressed with the rites performed. The funeral services were in memory of T. W. Williams of Glenwood, who was killed on the 14th of last month. The death of Mr. Williams is one of the first among members of the reorganized Order of Knights of Moses which occurred two years ago. Up to last month, there had not been a death among the 1,000 or more members of the of the society. He had only been a member of the order for a month or so and his wife received from the order a death payment of $200.00. Rev Holmes, one of the deputies of the order, preached the funeral sermon, in the absence of Rev Redd. The procession formed at Com monwealth avenue and Arlington street and marched through the principal streets of the city. There were seven bands ad one drum corps in line and they kept the air ringing with music from the moment the procession moved off. The line was about seven miles long and fully six thousand people took part in it. Vehicle of every description were to be seen. The lodges of Massachusetts, West Virginia, Deleware and the Odd Fellows Marching club of Washington, D. C., made a lost creditable showing. There were several hundred men representing these states in line and they all were attired in black once Albert suits and silk hats. To picture the showing made by the Patriarch companies almost impossible. With hundreds of men in line, they arrived with a graceful air and made an impression on the citizens of the Hub that will last formany years. The most striking feature of the Patriarchy was while the procession was moving up Columbus avenue, where thousands of people were gathed to witnessed the parade as playing by the Chicago band of "Onward Christian Soldiers arriving as to War". For blks the crowd cheered as they marched on. It was unquestionably a very fascinating and credita demonstration and brought fish words of praise from all class of citizens. It terminated Fenway park, where the prizdrill was held. The contest at the park between the various conanies was very close and dicisid as to the winners had to be deemed by the judges until the next day. Every company made splendid showing on the field, the Pittsburg company winner first prize by a narrow margin. The banquet on Tuesday night was a brilliant aff.. It was held at the Ninth renent armory and it was enated that there were fully or thousand present, who paid a dollar admission. The diar was served at the price of dollar a plate. Music was furnish by the Chicago band of twer-five pieces. The armory was tily decorated and the scene pruced by the beautiful gowns the women and the dignifiedaring of the men was one th was impressive and will cause his social side of the 17th B. M. to linger long in the minds of use who were present. On Friday, mong, the meeting reconvened business and long before the air of opening the delegates we on the scene. Caucuses were on the held here and there and everybody was prepared for a long hard fight. The interest in a session was intense on account of the fact that the propositio would come up to be voted ond every one The delegates, and visiting friends of Georgia who were in attendance at the 17th B. M. C., of Suffolk Odd Fellows at Boston, Mass. Last week, were entertained on Wednesday afternoon from 2 to 7 o'clock by the Georgia Link Society of Boston at the home of Dr. Alice Woodby McFane, No. 3 Marble street. The ladies serving were Mrs. Maud Trotter Stewart, Mrs Annh Bisbee, Mrs. R. Lynch and Mrs Susie Stevens. The officers of the society are Mrs. Anna Mill McNeal, president; Mr. Lucius Carter, vice-president, Mrs. Rachial Carr Davis, secretary; Mrs. R. Lynch, assistant; Mrs. Susie Stevens, Chaplain; Miss Sarah Wright, treasurer. Jack Farrell and Hock Bones Fight a Draw Before a crowd of 150 people, Jack·Farrell of New York, and Hock Bones, of this city, fought a fast five round boxing contest at Lincoln Park on last Wednesday night. The contest was full of action from the tap of the gong until the finish. Both men were careful not to open up. They mixed it good and strong and the spectators were furnished an exhibition of the manly art which was full of exciting situations and fast fighting. The first and fourth rounds were a shade in favor of the local fighter, while the second and third gave the New Yorker a slight advantage. In the last round, both men were cautious, though the fighting was fierce and hard and each tried for a knockout blow, but to no avail, and the contest was returned a draw, to the full satisfaction of the crowd. The fight was to have gone ten rounds, but on account of the small crowd and the late hour the fight began it was cut to five rounds. Hoke Bones attempted to work on his adversary's face and landed several telling blows while Farrell tried for the stomach and body and put in several staggering punches. The comparative weight of the two men was, Hock Bones 161; Farrell 151. The preliminaries were all farcical and attracted little or no serious attention. Neither man showed much effect of the gruelling contest. Invitations Out Invitations are out announcing the marriage of Miss Gussie Jackson of this city to Mr. Boedna C. Turner of Chattanooga, Tenn. The wedding will take place on Tuesday evening Oct. 6th at 6 o'clock from Mt. Zion Baptist Church, West Broad and Waldburg streets. The future home of the bride will be at Chattanooga. Tenn.

MANY CHANGES MADE IN THE TEACHING FORCE Cards of Admission Will be Issued Wednesday Morning at 9 O'clock—Schools Expect Large Attendance—Seventh and Eighth Grades of Old Schools will be Transferred to Cuyler Street School. During the week the assignment of teachers in the public schools of the city was made and, as was expected, showed quite a change in the teaching forces of the various schools. The many changes this year are due to the operation of twelvey grades at the Cuyler street school and the transferring of all the seventh and eighth grade pupils to that school. There will be two seventh and two eighth grades conducted at the school in addition to domestic science, manual training and sewing departments. The new school has which was completed during the month is one of the finest. Negro public schools in the Spur. It is two stories high, of red brick, steam heated, has a laundry and domestic science room, a principal's office and twenty class rooms. At present all of the class rooms will not be used, but in course of time the entire building will be in operation. The removal of the seventh and eighth grades to the new school will make room in the schools from which they are taken for additional lower grades and this, it is expected, will relieve the great congestion in these grades which has been the source of much handicap in these grades. The scholars of the seventh and eighth grades will report at the new school on next Thursday morning October 15 at 9 o'clock. Flat for rent, three rooms and bath, airy, well appointed, and in excellent condition. Apply to 218 Park Avenue, east the opening date of all the public schools.

General Paul Pau, long one of France's popular heroes, is winning new laurels for himself in the present war, although he has reached the ripe age of sixty-seven. A recent dramatic success was when his adventurous cavalry near Crepy-en-Valois swooped down on a German ammunition column nearly five miles long, captured it and blew it up. General Paul Pau commands one of the French armies and was born at Montellar, in France. He was trained at St. Cyr, the West Point of France, and was graduated J. GENERAL PAUL PAU. in 1867. General Pau fought through the Franco-Prussian war of 1870. He lost an arm at Froceschviller. On account of his gallantry in this battle he has been popularly known ever since as "the hero of Froceschviller." Pau was made a general of brigade in 1897 and a division commander in 1903. He was formerly commander of the Sixteenth army corps and when a general of division commanded the Twentieth army corps. General Pau retired from active service in February, 1911. In August of the same year the French people demanded that he be placed on the active list again and made commander in chief of the army of the republic. A popular campaign was started to force the government to make the appointment, and this action was about to be taken when the Monis government went out of office. Its successor appointed General Michel. This, however, did not suit the French people, particularly those whose sons were at that time serving with the colors, and the new minister of war, M. Messimy, created the new post of inspector general and named General Pau for the post. This time, however, General Pau declined. "My one arm," he wrote, "is always at the service of my country, but in times of peace I need it for the support of my family." GOVERNOR ELECT OF MAINE Democrat Wins by a Close Margin Gives Republicans and Republicans Over Republicans and Progressives. Oakley Curtis, recently elected governor of Maine by the Democrats, won out in quite a close fight, in which he was assisted by the Progressive party, inasmuch as it lessened the Republican P. A. OAKLEY CURTIS. vote. Mr. Curtis is not widely known outside his own state, where he has won golden opinions. He has been mayor of Portland for three consecutive terms, and his administration of civic affairs was so successful that he has been given the opportunity to exercise his talents and acumen in a wider field. After a number of experiments with the use of a vaccine which it was hoped would be effective in rendering horses immune from attacks of glanders, the federal department of agriculture has announced that the vaccine is a failure and advises horse owners against using it. It is a humane thing to let the hen with the brood of chicks out of an evening or in the middle of the day to dust and stretch her legs and wings. If one can imagine himself in a coop for a week at a stretch in hot weather the service mentioned will be the more cheerfully rendered. The Massachusetts forestry department is making an effort along the line of trying to reclaim the commonwealth lands of the tip of Cape Cod by planting trees there and sowing beach grass. If these two things can be successfully done it is believed that the shifting of the sands, by prevailing winds can be prevented. There recently passed the upper house of congress an agricultural appropriation bill carrying the huge sum of nearly $20,000,000. This will mean a more effective as well as more extensive prosecution of agricultural experiment and demonstration work in all parts of the country than has ever been carried on before. The press bulletin of the United States geological survey calls attention to the discovery of an important deposit of asbestos some thirty miles north of Globe, Arls. It is found with limestone and has a remarkably fine fiber, a yarn spun from it .03 of an inch in diameter, being strong enough to support a weight of fifteen and a half pounds. It is estimated that to properly harvest the bumper wheat crop which will soon be ripening in Kansas 40,000 nands will be required besides the number usually required. Many counties that did not ask for help last season are asking for as high as 3,000 hands this year. The figures given are furnished by the state's free employment bureau. A good many housewives may not be aware of the fact that beans and peas will boil tender in a much shorter time in soft water than in hard; that onions and a number of other vegetables boiled in soft water tend to lose their flavor rapidly, and that for extracting the juice of meat for broth soft water is best, and hard water or soft water containing salt is preferable if the juices of the meat are to be retained. A Canadian reader, reporting his experiences in the Rural New Yorker, tells of having much success in the catching of sparrows with the aid of one of the small pocket electric flash lights. The sparrows were poked from their roosting places by fish poles and at once flew toward the light, being seized as they reached it or falling to the floor, where they were easily caught. He reports that all the sparrows in a barn can be got by this method in fifteen or twenty minutes. --- The short crop of apples in a good many sections this season is due to the fact that the trees had an overload of fruit last season and the further fact that it was very dry during the three or four weeks preceding the ripening season. Fruit buds for the following season's crop are formed during the period mentioned, and the trees being put to it to furnish nourishment for the fruit already set formed no buds. This is one of nature's wise precautions for the protection of the life and vitality of the tree. A well known melon grower claims that he sometimes gives his melons a special flavor in the following interesting manner: When the melons have attained full size and just before they are ready to pick he takes a strand of yarn, puts one end in a bottle of sugar strup containing the flavoring extract desired and by means of a darning needle runs the other end through the stem of the melon to be treated. He states that in dry weather a melon will absorb half a cupful or more of the sweetened extract, which imparts a delicious flavor. The lad whose high school training has not served to make him consider it unbecoming for him to buckle in and load and spread a good sized manure pile has a proper notion of the value of education. On the other hand, the boy who thinks his diploma sort o' puts him above work of this kind, or the girl who gets it into her head that such evidence of scholarship puts her above dishwashing and mopping serves as a mighty poor sample of the output of an educational system, is doomed to lots of grief in the days ahead and is more than likely to prove of mighty little comfort or help to those who have sacrificed most in his or her behalf. Those who are not interested in poultry raising have little idea of the extent to which the business in the shipment of day old chicks is now carried on. One Ohio firm claims to have a capacity of 35,000 day old chicks a week. The writer saw a shipment from this firm the other day consisting of more than 500 Brown and White Leghorns and White Wyandottes. They were a lively lot at the end of their 600 mile trip, and but one chick died in route. The little fellows are shipped in corrugated pasteboard boxes, each containing fifty chicks, and provided with holes to give necessary ventilation. The chicks are not fed or watered in route, as they require no nourishment for a period of seventy-two hours after being hatched. Germany's Big Guns, Engines of Destruction, New Features In Warfare ONE of the outstanding developments of the great war in Europe is the terrible efficiency of the German artillery. On the stubborn battlefields of Mons and during the continuous rear guard fighting of the retreat to La Fere the German artillery was up at the front harassing the forces of the allies at every stand. The Germans first developed the idea of massing their artillery close to the front, where it could get into action early and by its shells cut up the enemy's troops so as to shake their morale and thus make easier the success of the German attacking infantry columns. Artillery had been considered a cumbersome, slow moving weapon, of great value in battle, but so defenseless against an enemy's surprise attack that large bodies of infantry called supporting troops were always attached to the artillery to protect it. Similarly to guard against surprise it was placed well to the rear of the columns when marching. The Germans in 1870 brought forward the new tactics of showing the artillery up to the front, even at risk of surprise and capture, and thus they gained the advantage of a powerful artillery fire on the enemy while the latter was wulth for his artillery to come up. After a long series of tests Germany in 1890 adopted the revolutionary expedient of building the gun loose from the carriage so that on firing the gun recoils without tagging the carriage with it. In 1901 it adopted a still further improved gun which allows a longer recoil. Bery effort had been made to keep seet the details of its construction, but they gradually leaked out. France adopted his general type in 1897 and the United States in 1902. All the nations of th world have now armed their artillery with this long recoil gun. Each country has also invented various modifications to improve the service of the gun. The big improvement of our day is that, instead of being made fast to its carriage by the trplons that permit only a swinging up down in elevation, the gun now rests freely in a trough, called the radle, that guides the gun in its six inch recoil. To SPECIMEN OF HEAVY GERMAN ARTILLERY. hold the gun to the guild it has clips near the front end, and the rear, or breech, it has a lug to which is attached a buffer to stop it recoil. The general technique of the artillery service in battle is to delay to get the exact range of target; the enemy exposes himself to brief a time to permit this. The method is to fire at ranges chanced 6200 yards each time until one shells short and one goes over. The intervening ground is swept by storm of bullets, delivered by firn eighteen shrapnel aimed to cover is district on each side of, beyond in short of the estimated range. In this way quick results are obtained though at large expenditure of ammunition. So great has been the movement in artillery fire that the point guns can entirely destroy any be of men that is reached by their fire security is obtained only by concealing. Even the opposing guns must be beceived behind hills or grooves are directed on the enemy by be aimed at a given angle with sondefinite visible object. This requires special sight and a rapid determinat of the necessary angle, making the tillery a very technical branch of thirvice. The greatest surprise to military men of the world has been rapid success of the Germans in during the forts of Liege, Namur in Longwy by means of their heavy artillery. These were constructed at a great expense and were provided with every known device for strengthen the defense. Infantry assaults reed in terrible slaughter without effect. The immense shell fired by Genny's heaviest guns weighs 760 pound and carries a charge of high explosives that blasts out an enormous hot well aimed, the fire of these guns will reduce any fort to ruins. The field gun shell is a potpourri der three inches in diameter nine inches long, total weight fifteen bounds, filled with a powder charge when exploded will blow a hole in enemy's parapet and will send fragments of the steel shell trying every direction. The projectile against men and animals is the shrap which is a shell filled with balls on explosion send a shower of bits over the troops within range. Unless farmers are sufficiently interested in farm bureau work to form an effective organization which truly represents the farming interests of the county there is small chance of the county bureau meeting with great success, says the department of agriculture. It is not enough for professional and business men to interest themselves in the work; the farmers must feel that the bureau is theirs, that it is a means by which they can all cooperate in securing for the community at large every possible benefit and not an institution for conferring benefits on them individually. A county organization imbued with this spirit is a necessary preliminary to successful work by a county agent. HOW TO KILL, POULTRY. Unseightly Product Is Caused by Incomplete Removal of Blood. Complete Removal of Bone. "Grasp the chicken, when killing, by the bony part of the skull. Do not let the fingers touch the neck. Make a small cut with a small, sharp pointed knife on the right side of the roof of the chicken's mouth, just where the bones of the skull end. Brain for dry picking by thrusting the knife through the groove which runs along the middle line of the roof of the mouth until it touches the skull midway between the eyes. Use a knife which is not more than two inches long, one-fourth inch wide, with a thin, flat handle, a sharp point and a straight cutting edge." The above instructions on the proper methods of killing poultry were issued by the department of agriculture. At least 30 per cent of all the poultry coming into the New York market is incompletely bled. Much of it is so badly bled that it results in a loss of from 2 to 5 cents a pound, as compared with the corresponding poultry which is well bled and in good order, continues the department. Aside from the bad appearance of incompletely bled chickens, their keeping properties are very inferior. The flesh loses its firmness sooner; its flavor is not so good; the odor of stale flesh and finally of putrefaction comes sooner, and in every way the product is more perishable. A very large proportion of the unlucky poultry in our markets, aside from the rubbing and tearing of the skins, is caused by an incomplete removal of the blood. This is evidenced by red dots which frequently occur where the feathers have been removed, especially over the thighs and wings, or by the small veins, which mar the appearance of the neck. Generally it is the neck which shows most plainly the presence of blood in the fowl, or that a wrong method has been used in cutting the blood vessels in an attempt to empty them. The neck is the first part to discolor, becoming first red, then bluish red or purple and finally green as aging progresses. Vitality of Seed. Assuming that every care has been taken to get seed well adapted to the conditions of culture, it is still important to see that the seed is of good vitality and capable of producing strong, vigorous plants. Great waste of land and labor results every year from the use of seed of low vitality. Poor seed cannot produce good plants, and poor plants give poor returns or none at all. Seed should always be tested before planting and seed of low vitality rejected. Some of this poor seed is introduced to blend with good seed so that it can be sold at a lower price. Some of the worst weeds have been introduced and spread in this way. The loss from weeds and the cost of fighting them is great and is so well understood as to need no discussion. Farmers often buy cheap seed thinking that they are saving money, when as a matter of fact they are paying two or three times as much for the small amount of good seed obtained as they would pay had they bought good seed in the first place at twice the rate per pound paid for the poor seed.-A. F. Woods, Dean Department of Agriculture, University Farm, St. Paul. SOME CHICKEN HINTS. The cripple and the malformed chicken should be put to death immediately after hatching. Such little unfortunate will bring nothing but disappointment. They will give you more care than ten well and whole ones. They will make you sick of the chicken business and give your entire flock a black eye from the first. Kill them the instant they are born. Lousy fowls are necessarily weaker than fowls that are free from lice. Strength and vitality are quite important factors while the fowls are producing their new suit of clothes. Corn is a very poor grain when fed extensively. It produces fat at the expense of other tissue, and when laying hens are fed too much corn they soon become too fat to lay There is no grain superior to wheat for chickens. It is readily eaten and is a rule laying hens thrive upon it. Those who grow wheat have a fine opportunity to raise chickens and sell eggs, for the fowls may glean the stubble fields and save much grain that would otherwise be lost. The person who has never fed grit to his fowls will be surprised at the amount a stock of heens will pick up in the course of a year. The feed dealer keeps the best kind of grit, it being ground granite or other kind of rock. On awakening one morning at his hotel in Vienna Paganini, the celebrated violinist, was informed that the cabman whom the previous evening he had employed to drive him to the concert hall where he was playing was waiting to see him. On being admitted to his presence the man, after having advanced poverty and a large family as an excuse for the request that he was about to make, prayed the great musician to make his fortune. "What do you mean?" demanded Paganini. "Authorize me to write in large letters on the back of my vehicle these two words, 'Paganini's Cub.'" was the answer. Consent was given, with altogether satisfactory results.

JOHNSON Editor and Proprietor JAS. H. BUTLER Asso. Editor and Manager Published Every Saturday 1009 WEST BROAD STREET Phone 2171 If there be any truth in the statement, "pepole who live in glass houses should never throw any stones," then this truth was certainly brought home to the American people by the Turiksh Ambassador, who was recently called upon by the department of state, for explanation anent certain statements of international import he is alleged to have made. Charges among other things that he represented a government which indulged in persistent persecution of those of the Christian faith within its border, the Ambasador in a stinging rebuke made it plain that America has no cause for holding up herself as the ideal nation in matters of a humane nature, as long as the lynching of so many of her black subjects go unpunished. The Ambasador is right. While it is true that two wrongs do not make a right, it is also true that America cannot hope to wield the proper influence as a leader in humane matters, as long as she allows such barbarous practices as lynching and the like to go unpunished within her borders. Think of it! During the year of 1913, seventy three persons, Negroes, met their death by the lynch route. This means that these unfortunates were given no trial, no opportunity to acknowledge their guilt or prove their innocence. Think of it! In civilized America, such a state of affairs is allowed to exist year in and year out. If America thinks that she can indulge in such uncivilized practices without attracting the attention of the world to her, she is sadly mistaken. Each American lynching is a blot upon the nation's escutcheon. Each stands out by itself in bold relief. Each in its own way lessens the influence of our great nation among powers of the earth. Let this country cut out lynching, which she can, and she will demolish one of her glass houses. Meantime may she ever remember that people in glass houses should never throw any stones. T That there is much merit in the movement now going the rounds of the country, looking toward the abolition of toy pistols, toy soldiers, toy battleships and the like as play implements, for young and playing children, is attested by the wide-spread popularity which the movement has gained in thinking circles. For some time, we have been unable to see how it was otherwise than the height of folly to place at the disposal of a child as play articles, those instruments the chief purpose of the manufacture of which is death dealing. The divine injunction, "train up a child in the way he should go and when he is old he will not depart from it," brooks few if any exceptions. If we are to expect the children of today, who, we all know, will be the men of tomorrow, to be peace lovers and advocates of the same, then we must not bring to their lit. tle minds suggestions, material or otherwise which will cause the emo becometoo familiar or at homewith those implements whose only mission is that of death. In giving to our children such play article as heretofore mentioned we have been training, uncousciously perhaps, so called defenders of the republic by means of arms. In this we have made a great blunder. Far better would it have been, if during these many years of the life of our republic, our young peoples' minds had been made to exercise themselves rather along channels of brotherly love and peace than otherwise. As we see it, there is absolutely no efficacy whatever in the toy pistol or toy soldier. If we are to wipe militarism entirely off the map, as we believe some efforts are now being put forward to do, then we must do away with these toy implements of death which are such fair reminders of the life of warfare.. The movement for abolition of the toy implements of war is a good one. As far as we can see, it is taking root in soil altogether fertile. May the day speedily come when a safe and sane substitution for the toy implements of war be made in order that there may be in the near future a larger and more effective number of peace advocates. Editorial .Notes Those who are able should join the "buy a bale" movement and help the tillers of the soil. There are many hundreds of acres of land in this county that can be purchased at a price cheaper than ever will be again. It behooves our young men to make investments along this line. They will make no mistake in doing so. It seems difficult for a person to stick to a principle. This is a great weakness that many of us should overcome. The mass of our people need an industrial education. Every boy and every girl should be taught to work. This does not mean that we are averse to a higher education. During the past two weeks two of the largest organizations among our people have had national gatherings. These gatherings have cost thousands of dollars and the greater part of this amount is out of the pockets of those who the least afford it. Efforts should be made to have these gatherings less frequent in order that the people will not be so much taxed. For instance the National Baptist Convention should meet every two or four years instead of annually. This question should be seriously considered by the leaders of this denomination and some action taken. The largest pork barrelever presented to congress was that of the Democratic river and harbor billcalling for fifty-three million dollars. This amount is asounding, especially in the face of the fact of a nearly depleted treasury. The Republicans would not stand for it and fillibustered against its passand succeeded in reducing it to nearly twenty-two million dollars. Get into the saving habit, it will do you good when in dire trouble. Should not our ministers in an organized way adopt some practical plan whereby a more effectual hold can be had on our young people? Are they not partly responsible for the present condition of affairs? The large increase of property holdings by our people in this county last year was indeed gratifying. The record should not be broken, the increase the coming year should be greater. Our young men should have high ideals and persistently live up to them. The national platform of the democratic party says "We favor a single Presidential term and to that end we urge the adoption of an amendment to the Constitution to make the President of the United States ineligible for re-election and we pledge the candidate of this convention to this principle." President Wilson subscribed to the above; can he conscientiously violate it? Never become discouraged; success comes to him who continues to plod. In the Maine election the Republicans more than doubled their votes of 1912. The Progressives reached only about 17,000 votes despite the fact of the presence of Col. Roosevelt who boosted for them during the campaign. The saving and economical qualities of the Jews and other individuals should be an incentive for all of our people. One of the best ways to furnish our boys and girls employment is to unstintingly support our men in business. If this support was given those of us now in business, the result would be an increased business and the need for more help, and of course our boys and girls would reap the benefit. Secure a copy of next Saturday's Thirty-two page Tribune. There will be a happy,throng of children wending their way to the several school buildings next Thursday. They will represent the future men and women of our race and no little care should be taken in their training. St. Philip's Church Sunday was Educational day at St. Philip. Rev. R. H. Singleton preached the educational sermon at 11 a.m. The Sunday school had their excercises at 3 p.m. At 8 p.m. there was a fine and interesting program rendered by adults and children of the Sunday school. We thank the members of other churches and the public for the splended attendance at the cantata on last Monday night Our fall rally is just one month off; each division must do their duty. The Singleton division will have the next two weeks for entertainments. There will be a special sermon by Rev. Singleton on Sunday night subject, "Evils of the Times." There will be preaching nearly every night next week. The following services on tomorrow Sunday: Prayer meeting at 5:30 a.m. Preaching 11 a.m. Sunday school at 3 p.m. A.C. E. League at 7 p.m. Preaching at 8:15 p.m. Among the Masons. If mankind were governed by the principles of our Order the name God would be professed. There would be no prejudices or hypocrisies, noingratitude, pride, nor self-complacency under the smiles of Providence, nor any murmuring under its frowns. If mankind obeyed these teachings, to honor and obey God would be their constant delight, they would love their neighbors as themselves, consequently there would be no wars, nor envying, no strikes; no slanders, litigation, intrigues between neighbors, no persecuting, bitterness, frauds nor deceit; nor murders, robbers nor theft; no unkindness, treachery, nor implacable resentment among friends. Everyone would pursue that only, which would be conducive to the happiness of all. I believe there is no death. I belive that man has a continued existence and takes on new organism that I can no more understand than a caterpillar can understand the construction of a butterfly. What I believe in one single sentence is that man never dies. Death is a launching. Death calls us and says; Come, come, you are tired; come, you are tired, and sleep." I often look forward to the time when that voice will tell me that I may sail over the unknown sen.—Lyman Abbott. There are some people in this world who are not satisfied unless they can dictate the policy of everything with which they are connected. There are a good many Masonic bodies burdened with members of this kind. There are brethren who, having been honored with the highest positions in the lodge, are not satisfied to make an honorable retirement from official position and "see who best can work and best agree," but who persist in trying to run the lodge, elect its officers, pick its workers and determine just what it shall and shall not do. And when they do not succeed they commence to make mischief and adopt the rule or run policy. We often hear the brethren high up on the Masonic ladder who are guilty of this misdemeanor. No. presiding officer should allow himself to be intimidated by a brother of this kind, no matter what his Masonic standing and antecedents may be.—Illinois Freemason. Always abide by the will of the majority in your lodge if you want peace and harmony to prevail. Don't be a knocker because everything idosen't go just to suit your fancy.—The Globe. astend, Sept. 23 (via London) The power of Freemasonry is illustrated by a story told here by a citizen of Louvain, who, with the masonic sign, says he saved fifty of his fellow citizens from being shot to death by German troops. This group of citizens, according to the recital of Belgian Mason, had been lined up for execution. The German firing party had their rifles at "present arms" when the narrator gave a Masonic sign. The German officer commanding the firing squard happened to belong to the craft. "He recognized a brother Mason and ordered him to leave ranks, but the Louvain Mason refused saying: "My fellow citizens are no more guilty than I am. If you are going to kill them I shall be killed with them" The German officer thereupon ordered the released of the entire party.

Mutual proclaimed itself a modern business missionary, intending to preach this gospel and showing that the six Negro industrial insurance companies of this city had an income amounting to $566,775.50 in the six months ending December 1912 according to official report. Now comes the startling announcement from a local statistician saying, that the seven Negro companies paid out during the first week in July 1914 right here in Savannah $1,766.70 in salaries and commissions to their employees for one week's work. The Ga, Mutual is going to bring out more facts, but is sorry to say that these figures are getting so large that a good many of our people can't read them.

BOWEN --- eam aS IN TITANIC STRUGGLE Bat in Northem France Undecided. vo TERRIBLE ARTILLERY DUEL Strongly Entrenched the Two Great Fighting of the Present Terrible 3 Buropean Conflict. | One of the fiercest battles of all times, which has been raging &cross northern France for a week past with first a slight advantage on one siae and then on the other, remaing un- “Aecided. ‘The two great ‘armies which have been fighting for a month, with few, if any, intermissions, have dug them- selves into entrenchi@fits on rivers sad mountain ranges on a front reach from the Olse to the Meuse, and thence southeastward along the Franco-(?erman frontier. Artlitry duels such as never before have been seen are being carried on with the hope of compelling the evacuation of the strongly held posi- tions, with occasional successes to the opposing sides, while the infantry. in the face of a galling fire, ‘have charged right up to the guns, on¥‘to make their opponent? give way slightly, or to be repulsed with great losses. Fighting has been flercest on the allies’ left, which Hes on the right bank of the river Olse, in the vicinity of Rheims, the famous cathedral of which has been set afire by German shells and between that town and the Argonne ridge it has been give and take all the time. French official reports again claim alight progress on the French left and that the allles again have repulsed strong frontal attacks between Cra- onne and Rheims. Around Rheims itself matters have been about equalized, as the Ger- mans have recaptured the heights of Brimont, while the French have taken the defenses of La Pompelle. "The French also have scored a suc- cess between Rheims and the <Ar- _gonne. * om >, CATHEDRAL IN RUINS. ms = Celebrated Edifice at Rheims Re- ported Destroyed. The minister of the interlor, Louts J. Malvy, announced from Bordeaux that the famous cathedral of Rheims had been destroyed and other historic and public buildings either laid in ruins or serlously damaged by Ger- man arillery. If the reported destruction of the cathedral of Rheims is true, it is the greatest loss from an historical and artistic sense of the present war. Begun on the site of an earlier church erected by Robert De Courcy, in 1212, and continued at intervals down to the fifteenth century, it has been “described as “the most perfect ex- ample in grandeur and grace of Gothic style in existence.” It was in the cathedral of Rheims that the successive kings of France from Philip Il. to Charles X. were crowned, and it was there the Maid of Orleans stood, banner in hand, be- fore the great altar and saw dhe coronation, of Charles VIL. which marked the fulfilment of her vision ESCAPED GERMAN TORCH. — Louvain Art Works Becca taiical Can Be Restored. ‘The Nordeutsche Allegemeine Zci- tung publishes official dispatches from the German administration of Lou- vain stating that though from a fifth to a sixth part of the city is in ruins most of the publie buildings have been preserved, including the beautiful city hall, regarding which\there has been so much discussion. The dispstches say that the dam- age to St. Peters cathedral was such that the building can pe restored easily and the art works were pro- tected by German soldiers. The Ger- man officers did everything possible tc check the fire. Many of the residents are returning and some of the shops have been reopened. Trains ere be- ing eperated on the railway between Louvain and Brussels. The courts of justice kave resumed thelr ses- sions at Louvain. Duel in Air Won By French Aviator. Newspapers related the story of an air duel between 2 French aviitor and a German airman at.an ‘unnamed place during a battle. After long Maneuvering the Frenchman ascend- ed above the German. Both men used ‘revelvers. The German was seriously wounded and hig machine turned ever, falling among British troops. He was dead when picked up. Famous Corps Almost Blotted Out. . The Paris correspondent of the London Exchange Telegraph compa- ny says: “All accounts received ip Paris.¢cree that the famous Prussian guard corps, the elite of the empire and the especial pride of the Gerraun emperor, has been yirtually blotted out in the battles waged along the Meuse, Marne and Aisne rivers.’” Austrians Cordoned by Russians. ‘The Rome correspondent of the Ecke de Paris states under reserve that reports from Petrograd indicate that General Dankl's Austridn army has been ‘surrounded by the Rus- pians. .

It Hae Beon Destroying Wheat In West- | ern Kansas—Preventive Measures. | ‘The mysterious worm which has | been reported to be destroying wheat in western Kansas {s none other than the cpmmon clayback cotworm, ac- cording to George A. Dean, professor of entomology in the Kansas Stute Agricultural college. ‘When the first report of damage ‘wes received an entomologist was sent ito the infested region. Infestation was found to be confined practically to wheat flelds containing much votun- teer wheat and to grass lands and al- falfa fields. Unless weather conditions re unfavorable for growing crops. the worms will probably, says the ento- mologists, cause no great loss of the wheat crop. ” Preventive measures are best for controlling cutworms. If the wheat fields are plowed during the summer and the volunteer wheat is kept down until after seeding there Is very little danger. Cutworms often migrate from field to fleld, in which case a good dust barrier should be constructed In which the worms may be destroyed. Where the worms are migrating or are con- centrated In a small area, they can probably be killed by using the poisor, bran mash employed against grass- hoppers. This should be sown in the evening along the edge of the field that the worms are entering. Growing Alfalfa. In preparing the land for alfalfa It is best to go slow. The first step is to plow the soil deep and prepare it the first year for potatoes or corn, using ten londs of manure per acre, pulveriz- ing or harrowing the land down in good shape. The corn or potato crop should then be kept thoroughly clean for a season. This will destroy weeds and the ground will have time to settle properly for alfalfa. Then the follow- Ing spring the land should be double disked, rolled and harrowed. ‘Che seed lean then be sown with an ordinary wheat drill us follows: Mix, und mix thoroughly. about six pounds of cornmeal to ten pounds of alfaifa seed. The ordinary drill! when closed to Its finest calibration will sow about sixteen pounds per acre. Thus sixteen pounds of the ‘misture- will mean ten pounds of alfalfa seed. This 4s considered about the best amount to sow per nere under field conditions. Another method of sowing Is to cov- er or plug up all but the first. seventh, ete., holes In the drill with the indl- cator set at the same position as be- fore. This will take about one pound of seed pet, acre and will put the rows forty-two inches apart, far enough to be cultivated. Straw as a Fertilizer. A large amount of straw is shipped from a county in Missouri to a nearby Paper and strawboard factory. This straw brings the farmer hibout 50 cents per ton. A county agent recently found a pile of about 1,000 tons at Sikeston ready for.shipment. Hé com- putes that as a fertilizer this straw is worth $2.50 per ton, in addition to its value as a means of adding organic matter to the soll. He is making a campaign of the county in an attempt to show the inadvisability of the farm- ers selling their straw and urging its more extensive use as bedding in sta- ‘bles and feed lots. Straw used! as a topJdressing on fall wheat has been found to practically insure a good stand of clover on lands where clover fs otherwise grown with great diffi- culty: Cure or Kill Trees. It is very unjust to neighbors to per- mit trees to grow that. are covered ‘with insects or troubled with disease. ‘The disease or ingects will spread and finally destroy other trees on the prop- erty where they are growing, and the trouble rapidly’ spreads to neighboting grounds, Either cure or kill If un- able to do the first cut down the trees and burn them, and do !t promptly. A Good Whitewash. A pound of'cheap bar'soap dissolved in a gallon of boiling water and added to about five gallons of thick white- wash will give it a gloss like ol! paint. Silicate of soda in the proportidn of one to ter of whitewash produces a fireproof cement. ities’ tea: Plas Bak tiv The wise farmer does nut try to raise a crop of fruit und a crop of hay from the same land. By so doing he falls to get the best possible results from el- ther. Better put all the attention to the orchard and raise the hay on some other tand. “!

The most Fe- markable point about the encounters is that the thoops scarecly see a other before they actually come hand te hand. | HORRORS OF BATTLE. : Women Bury Dead. On account of the unceasing fi in the battlefield along the Aisn many wounded are lying where the, fell. The Red Cross ambulanc could not venture out to pick the! up beeause of the heavy fire. Many wounded must have died upon the field for Iack of medical attention in the past week. It ts terrible to imagine what these wounded soflers must have suffered, lying upon the wet, soggy ground. with the cold wind and rain sweeping over them while the pain of a shat- tered leg, or arm, or rib, racked and tortured frames. Day and night bursting shells fell around these wounded, covering their feverish bod- les with showers of mud. In the wake of the battle the task of clear- ing up the carnage goes on slowly. Around Senifs women are helping the men bury corpses. The streets of Senlis are full of mounds, each eleva- tion markingthe graye of a French, British or German soldier. They are unnamed, and in the official reports of the governments they 86 down as “missing.” . Similar carnage has marked the fierce fighting around Caronne, where both sides showed the fury of fiends in their attacks. VALLEY OF DEATH. Loss of Life Reported as Colossal in France. In the-ralley of the Meuse and fn the Vosges the fighting is less severe, but is still golng on. The destruction along the valley of the Alsne is appalling. Wounded soldiers, returned officers and pris- oners from the front describe the loss of Iife as colossal. The stretch of lowland between the hills flanking the Aisne Ix described as a valley ot death and desolation. =. Day and night the bombardment goes on, untll one wonders in amaze- ment how the Germans are able to bring from their distant base of sup- plies sufficient ammunition necessary ‘to keep their -batteries in action all the time. Another Prince Wounded. A message receired from Berlin says Prince August William, the fourth son of Emperor Willism, -wae shot in the teft arm during tke bat- tle of the Marne. Emperor William has bestowed the iron cross of the first class on him. All Northern France Devastated. No matter how the great battle now raging along’the French frontier goes. all of northeastern France from Barts to the Belgian and German borders will have been ravaged, devastated and scourged. It is as though the hand of God, sweeping in divine wrath, had withered and wasted the land for the sins of Its people. NOT TIME FOR PEACE. Paris Papers on Cessation of Hos- titltles. According to the semt-official press the opportune moment for peace ne- gotiationa is not In sight. The Paris Journal Des Debates says: “Tieaties, written prohibitions and restrictions Will not suffice. All these the imperial chancellor, Dr. Von Betti- mann-Hellweg, has declared to be merely ‘scraps,of paper.’ “What are needed are material measures, immediately executed, that will strike all of Germany and con- &titute guarantees for the future. This ig the destructiog of German terri- tory, organizations, and instruments of war.” «= ‘The Temps says: “No delusive peace. It ts necessary to pursue a single Idea—the end of the militarist German empire.” Ducal House Mourns. The ducal house of Saze Meiningen has been sorely stricken by war. Prince Frederick, the grand duke’s brother, and his son Prince Ernest have both been killed. The Princess Brederick ts dying from the shock of losing her husband and son, a8 well as cher cousin and a nephew, The house of Lippe has also lost three princes. 7 It Farm and : Garden ‘SULPHUR FOR POWDERY SCAB “ Séed-Potatoes With Sulphur. On accouat of the possitility of in- fection with powdery scab, the depart. ment of agriculture is now recommend- jng,all potato growers to treat thei: seed potatoes with sulphur, This Is made expedient by the fact that in- fected seed potatoes have been shipped out of Maine, where powdery scab now exists.

The department advises the use of both formaldehyde enq sulphur, Before cutting the potatoes should be soaked for two hours in a solution of one pint of formaldehyde to thirty. gallons of water. They should ther? be, allowed to dry quickly either in-the open or while spread out on a clean floor. This ts kndwn to be effective against common séab and blackleg and should therefore be employed in all cases. Whether it Js equally effective against powdery seab 1s doubtful. and for this reason the use of sulpbur ts strongly adrised in addition.

Every possible effort is being made to prevent this disease making Inroads on our po- tato industry. and the co-operation of all interested In this crop is much need- ed in dealing with this new potato malady. Powdery scab does not attack the portion, of the potato vines above the ground. It is primarily a disease of the young tubers, which develops as they mature in the ground.

Where this is practiced the result will be potatoes hardly superior in quality to those badly affected with the canker.

The destruction of telegraph lies and the lines which crippled communication in previous conflicts and soiled sections no longer counts. When per toll shall be taken of the results the present collision of natins the side of the ledger will carry the vice to commerce of the wireless messages which, have been finishing to amphips and from steamships to and since hostilities began. The huge stations capable of ending messages 400 miles and more are controlled by the nations engaged in the conflict. Of these Germany his three—at Helgoland, from which Germany is in communication with it fleet; Danzig, Norddeich and Swietaunde. There are a number of Germn stations of smaller range—the Bremerhaven, Barkurn, Bulk, Cuxhaven and Sassrutz, averaging about a hundred miles of range and having best serv- ```markdown ``` A WIRELESS TELEGRAPH STATION. iceable in saving many German boats from capture when war seemed imminent. France, has a station of tremendous range in the Eiffel tower, which was ideal from the first for the transmission and reception of messages. It is a means of communication with the French fleet in the Mediterranean. In addition there are at least six locations with a range over 350 miles — at Frest, Cherbourg, Dunkerque, Rochefor, S. Maries de la Mer and Ouessant. Little can be gleaned regarding the range of Russia's stations. These are scattered over Baltic sea points, the gulf of Riga and the gulf of Finland. The average range is believed to be 100 miles. Great Britain's important naval and commercial interests have forced the installation of numerous and powerful stations. Twenty have a range of over 60 miles; thirty more can transmit 300 miles. Her warships carry apparatus with 300 miles' capacity. Austria-Hungary's four stations at Pola, Castelnuovo, Sebinico and Trieste average about 400 miles. Communication is going on constantly between France and Russia through the Eiffel tower and Moscow and St. Petersburg. Attempted interference by one hostile nation with another's messages have proved futile because it has seriously interfered with its own service. In the case of the Eiffel tower apparatus its electric waves are so peculiar that only special instruments can harmonize with them. The stealing of messages by the enemy is, in the case of most stations, rendered impossible by a process called "timing." An apparatus is tuned or timed to receive and send electric waves of certain rapidity and length, just as a tuning fork can be made to sound when a tuning fork of the same pitch is sounded near it. This, supplemented by an arrangement of codes, eliminates the dangers of tapped messages. The value of the Marconi equipments in this direction was proved in the Balkan war. In all Marconi stations secrecy is secured by a change of electric wave length at stated periods, so that any one who is cutting in would be utterly confused. In the present war the portable wireless has been of use in keeping various points of the armies in constant contact, no matter how separated. This has resulted in quicker and more certain movements of bodies of men. The portable apparatus can be secreted, and spies have put it into tree tops at night and wirelessed to awaiting commanders at distant points. Small patches of quack grass may be pretty effectually exterminated by spading them up to the depth of eight or nine inches and carefully shaking the roots free from dirt and hanging them on the fence. When dry they should be burned. The cranberry marshes in the state of Wisconsin are said to produce as high as $1,400 worth of fruit per acre in a single season. Under clean cultural methods the yield of the berries has been increased in a good many cases nearly 100 per cent. Heating stoves may be kept from rusting during their periods of nonuse by coating them inside and out with any good graphite stove blacking, which should not be polished. The nickel plated portions should be polished and coated with vaseline. --- One of New York city's largest milk retailing firms has 8,000,000 bottles in service, and of this number about 8,000,000 are lost or broken annually. It would seem as if there were a lot of folks whose milk bill might be cut down materially if they would take better care of their bottles. There are said to be nearly half as many dogs in the United States as there are inhabitants. This seems to be a pretty strong statement, judging from the number of dogs in the localities in which most of us live. However, if there are 20,000,000 dogs in the country there are about 19,000,000 too many. There are at the present time about 2,000 consolidated rural schools in the United States, Ohio, Indiana and Massachusetts having made the greatest progress in this much needed reform. A fact of interest that has been noted in this connection is that about one third of the roads in these states have been improved. There may be some retailers of milk who do not realize that there is a federal law against putting any chemical into milk to keep it sweet, and as many more in a good many states do not seem to appreciate the fact that most state laws require that milk sold at retail shall contain not less than 3 per cent of butter fat. The director of the Colorado experiment station is authority for the statement that if cut while young Canada thistles may be used quite successfully for silage. This observation should not be construed by the unwary as justification for letting these pests get a foothold on the farm in order to have stuff with which to fill the silo. There is no need of any farmer buying commercial fertilizer if the soil and climatic conditions make possible the growing of alfalfa, red or sweet clover. The statement made does not hold in case land has been robbed for generations, for in such cases the application of commercial fertilizers with manures and the groying of legumes are necessary. While but 1 per cent of the American people are said to be college or university bred, it is interesting to note the figures prepared by one college investigator, which show that twenty-nine of the fifty-one governors of states and territories have come from this 1 per cent; also sixty-one of ninety-three United States senators, 272 out of 305 congressmen and nine of the nine justices of the supreme court. Dr. Crumbine, secretary of the Kansas board of health, gives the following recipe for a homemade dry potion that will not be injurious to children in the home if they should get hold of it: Beat together the yolk of one egg, one-third cupful of sweet milk, one level teaspoonful of sugar and a level teaspoonful of black pepper. Put mixture on a plate and place where flies abound. According to the opinion of a good many, the laying out of the front yard does not as often as it should give proper recognition of the value from the artistic point of view of a stretch of unbroken blue grass. It is better to reduce the beds in the lawn space to a minimum, arranging them for the most part as border features. This is just as well for the flowers, simplifies the care of the lawn and sets off the beauty of the carpet of grass in a becoming manner. The German plan of setting out fruit trees along the highways is to be tried in Missouri. What is known as the Blue Book route, extending from the Missouri river at Kansas City to the Mississippi river at Louisiana, Mo., is to be planted to peach trees and will be hereafter known as the Elbera route, as it is to be lined with trees of that variety. A law is to be passed which will insure the protection of the trees, while the fruit produced by them will become a part of the road fund for the upkeep of the highway. A reader of this department living in Washington writes for the government bulletin giving in detail the experiments which have been conducted in the line of raising beans in semiarid sections instead of allowing the soil to lie idle under summer fall. The bulletin in question is Farmers' Bulletin No. 561, and may be had by directing a request to the department of agriculture, Washington. The fact that our correspondent has written as he has for this bulletin seems to justify the statement that any bulletin or bulletins on a given subject may be had without expense by sending a request for them to the department at Washington, as stated. Ancient City of Malines; Cardinal Mercier, Primate, Deplores Bombardment CARDINAL MERCIER, primate of Belgium and archbishop of Malines, one of the cities devastated by the German forces, had a difficult time in returning from Rome to Belgium. Because the cardinal had refused to give a denial to the charges of German atrocities in Belgium the kaiser's envoy in Rome had rejected his request for a safe conduct back to his archdiocese after the papal conclave, so he was compelled to return through England. In England the Irish Catholics seduced the occasion of showing their sympathy for Belgium by inaugurating a huge procession which was reviewed by the cardinal, who sat on a balcony with John Redmond on his right and T. P. O'Cannon on his left. The procession numbered more than 50,000. Later the cardinal was warmly welcomed upon his arrival at Malines by the burgomaster and citizens of the town. He expressed great grief at the sight of many damaged houses. It was during the cardinal's absence from Malines and while he was attending the conclave for the election of a new pope that Malines was attacked by the Germans. The city in a sense is the religious capital of Belgium and is situted on the Wye river about halfway between Antwerp and Brussels. It has a population of about 70,000. It gave the name to mechlin lace, for the making of which Malines was once famous. It is one of the busiest railroad centers of Belgium, the lines from Antwerp to Brussels and from Ghent to Liege crossing there. It has had a somewhat troubled history. During the religious troubles of the sixteenth century it was sacked. During the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries it was captured in turn by the French, Dutch and English. The French finally removed the fortifications in 1804, since which time the city has been unfortified. The city is also called Mechlin. Its ancient walls and most have been replaced by a wide boulevard and canal, the streets are wide and regular, and the city has fine squares and public buildings. Of its numerous fine THE CITY OF LONDON Photos by American Press Association. MALINES CATHEDRAL AND BELGIAN SOLDIERS DEPENDING THE TOW. churches St. Romband's is the most noteworthy—a vast Gothic structure adorned in the interior with many fine paintings. The manufacture of lace and cloth which flourished in the former centuries has been largely transferred to Brussels. It was at first reported that Malines had been greatly damaged by the recent bombardment it suffered, but later reports have corrected this impression. It has been visited by a correspondent of the London Chronicle, who sent the following dispatch to his paper: "On reaching the gates of Malines we first realized* that all accounts of recent events were grotesquely exaggerated. No doubt thousands of windows were smashed and a large number of houses were nearly destroyed, but not a single public building had substantially suffered. "The towers of St. Brombaud hardly showed any damage or traces of bomb-shells. Only its large stained windows had been shattered. It was at once obvious that the moral effect of the German raid had been out of all proportion to the material destruction, and the revelation was made that a city can be bombarded for three days with heavy artillery without any decisive result. "As we moved through the town we found the streets deserted. I went down into a number of cellars and there saw the most uncanny scenes I have witnessed during these eventful war weeks. Underground passages extended in every direction, and everywhere the earthen floors and walls were oozing with moisture. I perceived through the darkness the shadows of about 200 old men and women stretched on mattresses, shaking in all their limbs. "They stared at me in a frenzy of terror. In vain did I try to reassure them. They only asked; 'Are they coming?' 'Are they here?' 'Are they coming to kill us?' EGOS VERUS FEATHERS. Quite a controversy. M. on among poultrymen over the question whether the White Wyandottes of Tom Barron of England, entered in the international egg laying contest at Storrs college, Connecticut, and really Wyandottes or hybrids, from a gross with some light bodied Mediterranean breed, such as the Leghorn. Mr. Barron has cabled that this charge that his Wyandottes are cross, or hybrids, is absolutely false. American poultry show standards call for a Wyandotte hen of nearly the shape and carriage of a Partridge Cochin, minus feathers on the legs. The Barron fowls are long bodied, as slender as the Rhode Island Reds or Whites and remarkably active. This controversy is very natural and was bound to arise. American poultry standards have been laying altogether too much stress on form and feathers and not enough on performance. The Barron Wyandottes might not rank high as show birds, but what is important from the utilitarian standpoint is that they deliver the goods and pay for their board bill. It would seem as if the show standards ought to be overhaul so as to give place for fowls that can do something besides look pretty. Until they are changed buyers of the Barron stock or eggs should not look for show birds from this English stock. WHAT ONE MAN DID. Last year a resident of Scott Bluffs county, Neb. kept an accurate record of what he produced on two and a half acres of ground adjoining a good sized town. The record is by no means phenomenal, but it shows what industry and intelligence will accomplish when rightly directed along the line of intensive agriculture on a small scale. Of the land mentioned nearly three quarters of an acre was used by the buildings and a lot for the cow to run in. On half an acre devoted to small fruits, plums and cherries $135 worth of fruit was produced. $10 worth being used at home. A half acre of sweet corn netted $13.55, and there was enough left over for seed, chicken feed and for fodder for the cow. One-fifth of an acre of tomatoes yielded him $104.55, while from another quarter of an acre he sold $48 worth of popcorn. The rest of the garden was devoted to miscellaneous garden truck, from which was realized enough to bring the total income up to $130.70. SOME NEW PLANTS. This year the department of agriculture has distributed in all some 20,000 packages of seeds of new forage plants and grains, chiefly feteria and Sudan grass, which are particularly suited to the semiarid conditions found in the west and southwest. Nothwithstanding the extreme drought of last year, these two and some other new dry belt crops came to maturity and furnished forage where practically all other crops failed. Feteria is a grain and forage sorghum similar to Kaffir and milo, while the Sudan grass is a wild form of sorghum somewhat coarser than millet. Among other new crops, the seeds of which were distributed, were the Amroti and Bangalla varieties of field peas, also new strains of wheat, millet and Tepary beans, which latter are especially drought resistant and give much promise as an article of human food. THE USELESS BOOSTER. South Dakota has joined the anti-rooster campaign, and Saturday, June 6, was appointed by the state pure food department as a day for killing all roosters not needed for breeding purposes and converting them into potple for the Sunday dinner. The move is a good one and should become general. Hens lay just as well and their eggs keep a whole lot better if the roosters are kept away from them. It is contended that there is not a single factor that is responsible for more rotten and added eggs than their being fertile during warm weather. A few hours under a hen does the business, and the eggs are not fit to market and soon become unit for anything but fertilizer. SOME SUGGESTIVE FIGURES. Here are some interesting facts that ought to furnish a suggestion or two for corn growers. In no ten year period in the history of corn growing in the United States has the average yield per acre exceeded, twenty-eight bushels, while no state has averaged for any year over fifty-four bushels per acre. In contrast to these figures is the significant fact that in most every section of the country that pretends to raise corn yields of more than a hundred bushels per acre have been secured. With such low average yields, it is humiliating to contemplate what the production per acre must be of those growers who bring the average for the country down to so low a level. BATTLESHIPS AND BUGS. From the standpoint of the agriculturist it would seem good judgment to put the next $20,000,000 which will be called for for the building of two new battleships in a campaign which will have for its purpose the waging of a war on the insect pests of the country. The work might be started in New England, where the gypsy moth is continuing its destructive work, and wind up with the chinch bug in Kansas and Nebraska. Incidentally the money spent in this fashion would be devoted to just as patriotic a purpose as if it were put into battleships, powder and sixteen inch shells. J.C. Pijg A group of boys and girls in southwestern Iowa are this season taking part in a contest that ought to bear fruit in a better and more intelligent type of dairying in the near future. One hundred and seventy-two of these boys and girls are sending in to the office of the State Dairy association monthly reports covering the performance of the cows in their home dairy herds along the line of milk and butter fat production. In view of the fact that some of these youthful reporters are keeping tab on as high as fourteen cows it is estimated that more than 500 cows are being checked up. All boys and girls between the ages of twelve and twenty are eligible for entry in the contest, which has been set for three months. Each contestant is furnished with a dairy record sheet, on which the weight of each milk is recorded by accurate scales. Twice each month a sample of the milk must be taken and tested to determine the per cent of butter fat which it contains. Wherever possible the contestants furnish a small testing outfit and do the work themselves, but where testers cannot be secured the samples of milk are tested at the cremery or station where the test is made. The kinds of feed used and the amounts of each consumed are carefully recorded in order to determine the actual value of each cow as a producer. Feed schedules giving the value of the common grains and roughages are furnished, so that the cost account may be figured on the same basis. Each contestant is required to write an essay of not over 500 words describing the manner in which the work is carried on and the benefits derived, the prizes awarded being upon the thoroughness with which the testing work is done and the fullness and accuracy of the records kept. Breeders of dairy cattle and dairy supply houses have assisted by offering valuable prizes for the boys and girls who make the best showing. Three of the winners are to have their choice of a pure bred Guermsey, Jersey or Holstein bull calf, while others will receive cream separators, Babcock testers and other dairy equipment. HORSES VERSUS MOTORS. HORSES VERSUS MOTORS As long as ten years ago it was predicted that the automobile would put the horse out of business. That this process is likely to be one covering a very long period is shown in the following figures giving the census of horse propelled vehicles and motor vehicles of one kind and another in the city of Chicago in the years 1911 and 1914: In the former year there were 40,109 one horse vehicles in Chicago, 17,640 two horse vehicles, 331 three horse rigs and 34 four horse rigs. In the same year there were 436 and 363 auto delivery trucks of less than one ton and more than one ton capacity respectively. Early in the present year the census for the four kinds of horse vehicles were in the order above given as follows: 38,305, 15,851, 256 and 17 respectively. The two sizes of motor trucks had increased to 2,448 and 1,750 respectively. GETTING RID OF CROWS. Where crows do not pull corn and kill little chickens it is general7 considered that they do more good than harm because of the fact that they devour large numbers of beetles, caterpillars and mice. Where they do indulge in the two practices referred to an excellent method of putting a stop to their depredations is by killing several crows and hanging them up on long poles. There is something quite suggestive in the sight of a still crow at the end of a long pole, and the lives that remain are quite likely to fight shy of the places where such crows are, on exhibition. The writer has tried this method and found it very satisfactory. If the crows are too wary to sit for a shot at from twelve to fifteen rods one ought to get a bead on them at a greater distance with a good target rifle. A CHINCH BUG PARASITE. An entomologist of the Kansas experiment station has discovered a parasite which lays its eggs within the eggs of the chinch bugs, and it is his, ophion that this parasite will ultimately mean the control of the chinch bug pest. When hatched the larvae of the parasites feed upon the contents of the eggs in which they are laid. Last season Professor McCulloch, assistant entomologist, collected fifty-one insects, and he bred out 786, of which number 512 were females. It was found that these females laid on the average from twelve to twenty-nine eggs daily. Their life period was found to run from twelve to thirty days, depending upon weather conditions, from eight to ten generations being produced. KILLING PLANT LICE. One of the worst foes of plant life during the warm summer months are the different species of lice. These may be kept in check by spraying the plants or trees with either a soap or a tobacco solution. The first is made by dissolving whale oil soap in water at the rate of one pound to about six gallons of water. The latter is prepared by diluting the commercial tobacco extract preparations according to directions or by steeping a pound of tobacco leaves in foamy or five gallons of water. Both sprays should be applied thoroughly, care being taken to get the spray into all curled leaves and on all the lice present. J. C. Piigg ```markdown ``` Had All the.

From the moment the gavel sounded at- 10 o’clock it was evi- dent that the fight was on. The opposing factions were busy lin- ing up their men and everything was ina bustle. + The considering of propositions ‘was taken up-and many hot ar- guments were engaged in during the proceedings. _ At 3:30 o'clock this session «:d- journed for dinner, to reconvene at 5 o’slock and to remain in ses- sion until all business was fin- ished. Promptly at the appointed hour the delegates were-on hand prepared for the long and tedious ‘task that lay before them. The considering of propositions was then taken up and some of them were bitterly contested and lasted way up into the early hours of the morning. About 2 a. m.» the committee on grand master’s address re- ported and in their report, which was rendered by the chairman, J. C. Asburry, they renewed the attack on B. J. Davis and H. L. Johnson and strongly denounced their actions against the grand master, which’ was entirely un- called for and only seemed to create strife and confusion. ‘At the conclusion of the read- ing of the report, Davis was given an opportunity to speak and in strong language he presented his cause, claiming that the grand master took advantage of his official ‘position to heap abuses upon him before the B. M. C. + . Johnson in a cold and deliber- ate way refuted the statements made by the grand master and claimed that Asbury misrepre- sented him in his report. Answers to these statements were made by Morris and Asbury and during the time that Asbury was on the floor there were shouts of, “sit down,” “we don’t want to-hear you,” and many other uncomplimentary remarks. 2 The discldsure, charges and counter-charges by both sides, of each other, and which covered several years, were disgusting and much to the displeasure of the delegates, which caused the house to be in a continuous state of uproar. Ge gas 545 o'clock Friday morning before the election of officers was called for. The bit- ter contest which was anticipated by many had faded away, the election’ being very quiet and moving-on with hardly a hitch. Rev. E. P. Jones of Mississippi, placed in nomination the present grand master. Edward H. Morris, and Rev. Wm. Decker Johnson of Georgia placed ‘the name of Henry Lincoln Johnson before the B. M. C. Both made very strong appeals for their respec- tive candidates. As was conceded at the early part of the convening of the B. M. C. by some who kept a close watch on the situation, Morris and his entire ticket were elected without any struggle. Morris received 876 votes and Johnson 366, 306 votes were given Johnson by Georgia, he receiving only 60 votes from the other states. Georgia had a total vote of 317 and 11° of them went to Morris. ‘The officers elected are: & * Edward H.

Morris thought, that as a reward for the manly stand taken by the representatives of the Savannah Lodges, this section of the ‘country, especially this particular city should have places upon important com- mittees, Asa" result Bro, B.S. Daniels was given a place on the credential committee, to ex- amine into elligibility of all con- testants, regardless of whence they came; Bros. J D. Powell and W.S, Roundfield were also named as members of important committees, and aquitted them- selves like men, as the others whose “names are mentioned above.

The splendid representatives who were so loyal and stroye sohard to carry out the wishes of the lodges whose money they were spending, should be commended by their lodges for endeavoring to do what they weretold todo.
