Queer Stunts are Staged
by Soldiers OnBattle Front

/ irto small pieces SO that as many OF
his men as possible could share the
dainty with the officers. The eating
OF the oysters was disturbed twice
by the enemy's batteries, and when all
was finished, the colonel turned to his
guests and said:
Nov, my friends, want two volun-
teers to throw the oyster shells and
the remains OF the crayfish into the
German trenches"
The whole party volunteered, and
two were chosen, who carried out their
queer mission under hail of lead.
Among the wounded who came in
from fighting on the User, was young
German whose bloodless, intellectual
face was but the head-piece of a
mass of bandages. A little group of
nurses gathered round him, for pinned
to the blood-stained blanket was a
blood-stained sheet of paper on which
was scrawled. HE saved the lives OF
seven French soldiers" Naturally
such a recommendation insured for
the sufferer the best possible atten-
ton and the English doctor who is in
charge of him hopes to pull him
through. From the broken sentences
which fell from the wounded mans
lips it transpired that his company
having captured seven Frenchmen,
were about to shoot them, when he
interposed and refused to allow his
comrades to perpetrat the crime. His
interference might have cost him dear
but the company was under fire. and
before they could make up their minds
bursting shrapnel and charge of
French cavalry swept the little group
in different directions. The defender
of the prisoners was badly wounded,
as were some of the men he tried to
save, but one of the latter crewled to-
wards his benefactor, and managed to
scribble the simple sentence which
told that the wounded man was
hero.

KEEP CALM AND
HOLD YOUR COTTON
Excellent Advice to Farmers and
Business Men from the Depart
ment of Agriculture

Washington, August S.-'fKeep
calm; use the nations great credit
and business staunchness to the full
est extent; withhold cotton from the
market and give careful attention to
warehouse facilities for grain"
This was the advice of the depart
ment of agriculture today to farming
interests as a means of relieving
threatened crop conditions on ac-
count of the European war.
Cotton is the most important fac
tor in the situation" said Charles J.
Brand, in charge of the Office of
markets, in a statement. Cotton is
the international crop, and the only
crop that goes into the industries
and is used only in manufactured
state. The continental situation is
bad, so far as cotton is concerned;
the greatest continental centers are
in Alsace-Lorraine, and the imme-
diately surrounding section.
England, no doubt, is able to or
ganize her cotton spinning in very
short time. While there will be a
restriction of the English market for
cotton, there is no occasion for the
conclusion that seems to have enter
ed some minds that there will be no
market for the crop.
THE consumption of American
mills will be greatly increased if war
goes on, thus reducing the surplus
that will have to be cared for. The
war will furnish an essential oppor-
tunity for American manufacturers
to develop South American markets
Farmers able to do so owe it to
the well-being Of the South to with
hold their cotton from the market
Bankers must for the moment mix
patriotism with their business and
assist both farm owners and tenant
farmers to hold their cotton until
the situation has had an opportunity
TO clear"

dreadful drama with no time for a

OF all the nations which must an

more severe ordeal than Great Brit
ain. Her position is of overshadow-
ing Importance, from the aspect not
only of military and political results,
but Of international morality.
Her policies and her acts will be
subjected to merciless scrutiny Be-
cause she has asserted higher vir-

MEAL AS
SUBSTITUTE FOR MEAT

The increasing high price of meat
is stimulating the search for other
foods supplying the protein that y
obtained from meat in the ordinary
diet. Experiments recently carried
out in Texas by J. b. Rather point
to cottonseed meal as a promising
food in this connection. This cheap
substance is extremely rich in pro-
tein. Mr.. Rather finds that a pound
of digestible protein is twenty -one
times as expensive in eggs and fifteen
times as expensive in meat as it is in
cottonseed meal. Numerous expert
ments in the use Of this food were
made on human subjects. 1t was
found that the meal could not be used
alone, but, in order to be palatable,
had to be mixed with corn meal or
wheat flour, the cottonseed meal
forming not more than one-fifth of
the mixture. In this form it was
made into bread, mullins, cake, ETC.,
by the ordinary recipes. In the diet
ary, however, it does not occupy the
place of bread or cake, but of meat,
which should be partly or wholly dis
pensed with when the cottonseed meal
is used. DILUTED as above described,
few people win be able to eat more
than two ounces of cottonseed meal
daily. In addition to protein, cotton
seed meal contains nearly as much
digestible fat and carbohydrates as
beef flank, and more than beef loin
or leg of mutton. Whether the long
continued use Of this food, to the
complete exclusion Of meat, would be
healthful is, for the present, doubtful,
in view Of the well known and still
mysterious toxic effect Of cottonssed
meal when used in large amounts and
for = long period in feeding stock.
