We have decided to increase our

acres more than we originally figured.
This is the last call. Your returns per

cattle may seem like joke but they

London.--A dispatch to Reuters
Telegraph company from Petrograd
says:
"A graphic account has been re.
ceived here of the end of the Russian
transport Truth, which the Russians
sank rather than surrender her to the
Turkish cruiser Goeben. When called
upon to surrender her captain headed
the Truth for the shore, opened the
valves and blew a hole In the bottom
of the vessel. Lieutenant Ragowsky
perished while attempting to fire a
second charge of explosives. Part of
the crew got OF in boats. while the
others jumped into the water and were

went down the chaplain was seen on
deck giving his blessing to the men

Plenty Of Birds and Fish.
II the land is of little worth, the
sea and the air bear an inordinate
share of the burden of food for man.
Small as the islets are, the number of
birds passes all reckoning; one may
mention a million merely as con-
venient unit of measure.
The albatross grudges mankind the
room to walk about in, the BOBBY Is
as absurd and foolish and altogether
well named on Midway as wherever
found, the Sandwich tern is under foot
and an excellent table bird, the bos'n-
bird and the frigate are found at GER
tain seasons on their nests, and the
plover and the cIrlew are in sufficient
quantity to find their way to the bill
OF fare. In the lagoon is abundance
of fish, cod, sea perch, the always
toothsome mullet, mackerel and the
gaudy coryphenas, so brilliant in their
varied coloring that to pu. them into
the pan seems almost to desecrate
the rainbow by cooking 1t. The tre-
pang, or beche-de-mer. may be had
with no more exertion than that of
picking its dark ugliness from the
clear bottoms of the tide pools, and
those who have had oriental table ev-
perience recognize that 1t may be
made into the most savory of soups.
A delicious cookie is somewhat sparse

afford plentiful supply OF. palatable
foods.

TO the members of the Farmers I'm

Your committee on banking and cur
rency and cotton warchousing and
marketing was represented in WASH
ington by the president and r. M.
Cooper of the executive committee.
We attended the hearings before Mr..
A. F. Levers committee OF the Cotton
Congress on the cotton grading bill
that is pending. attended the sessions
OF the Cotton Congress-, went; with a
committee Of bankers to see Secretary
McAdoo. protested against his dis
crimination against the small banks in
depositing treasury funds for crop
moving purposes and held conferences
with senators. representatives and the
leading members Of the Farmers I'm
Ion from ncary every Southern State.
We believe that many amendments
VIII be made to the laws on banking
and currency that will be of much bon
efit to the people who need TO borrow
money 10 hold crops. and that new
legialatfon Will soon be enacted to
make farm products available as Sc
curttics on terms more near meeting
our needs Rnd that will make such
securities as liquid as the best COM
mercial paper and many times safer
to the money lender.
These improved conditions are very
largely duo to the yane presentation OF
the facts by the Farmers Union dele
gates. We call upon the members all
over the state to attend their local and
county union meetings.. to attend all the
mtings called under the auspices OF
the Cotton Congress and to inform
themselves SO as to help shape the poll
icies OF those meetings and secure the
full benefit OF the best plan TINT is
adopted.
There never was better time to
enlist the farmera ali, over the state
and get them to joint the Farmers
Union. This quick campaign that has
already done 30 much to restore con-
fidonce was the direct result Of the ac-
tion of tho State Farmers Union at
Andcrson when 1t appointed this com.
mittee with full power to act. 1t wa.
becaIHe Of tho call of this committee
that Col. =. j. Watson called tho
