REDUCING The
COTTON ACREAGE
John H. Page Presents Fig

Brood Sow And Ten
Hens Will Do.

The following is from the week.
ly letter of Agricultural Commits
sioner John H. Page:
If three classes, . the landlord
who rents the land, the merchant
who sells supplies on credit to make
the cotton crop, and the local bank
er who loans money direct to the
small farmer and the merchant as
well, will all come together and
come to an agreement to take live
stock and other farm products than
cotton as basis of credit, they
have the power to reduce the cot
ton acreage for one year or perma-
nently,
IF these men will supply one
good brood SOW and ten hens to
each tenant farmer 1t will work
wonders, be the best of security,
and feed half the people. One
brood SOW will average six pigs,
With 1000 tenants that would
mean 100000. By next winter
they could be made weigh an aver
age Of 100 pounds each, That
would produce 80 million pounds
of pork, Ten hens to each of the
10000 tenants would be 100000
hens; the hens would produce an
average of ten dozen eggs In a
year, amounting to | million dozen
eggs, The eggs would weigh a
pound and d half to the dozen, or a
total weight of sixteen and a half

to the % million pounds Of pork
would make ll5,500000 pounds Of

THOUGHTS ON THE WAR.

The European war is the most
sigantic struggle in the worlds his
torv of wars. Only short while
ado and very many people were
willing to say that the face OF the
earth would never again run red
with the blood of human beings at
war, and there was, seemingly,
GOOD reason for this belief. The
Greatest men of every country
we're preaching peace, and the
sentiment of people everywhere
seemed turned toward a cessation
of hostilities between men and ma
tions forever. Universal peace
seemed at hand. Peace confer
ences were plentiful, and arbitra-
ton of differences between nations,
it seemed, would take the place of
armies and guns. 1t is sad blow
to the dreams and hopes of those
who believed international peace
to be an assured fact and war
thing the future would never know
that right now tens of thousands
are daily facing and meeting death
in all the horrors of a terrible war.
One frequently reads the predic-
ton from some enthusiastic apostle
of universal peace that the present
European struggle will be the last
great war the world will ever know,
and some 90 even so far as to say
that with the ending of this war
all nations, seeing more clearly the
futility and absolute uselessness of
armed conflict, will begin disarm-
ament and peace will be establish
ed throughout the world for all
time. Certainly it requires the
mind and the mood of the real op-
timist to subscribe to that theory
War is an old art. The horrible
ness of war has been made plain
to all the people, either by means
of history or through actual exper-
ience, in every age OF the world,
yet in the twentieth century; when
the whole earth is at the height of
its boasted civilization and educa-
ton millions of men shoulder arms
and are led into a struggle that
startles civilized people everywhere.
A few months ago it would not
have been believed that Europe
would convulse herself with battle
slaughter her people and devastate
her land, but Europe has done and
is doing just that. And Europe
knew beforehand that Gen. Sher-
man was right when he said that
war is hell
There will be wars just as long
Sharp County record., 1914-10-23

as there are crowned heads, mon
arches and greed. And there is
certain to be greed as long as there
are crowned heads and mOnarchies.
In the republic, where the people
rule and where the chief officer of
the land is responsible to the peo-
pie for his official acts, the people
can not be rushed into war on mere
pretext or because Of the greed and
ambition of the head of the gov
ernment There is no excuse for
the European war except the greed
for conquest and for territory of
ruler of one of the mightiest nations
on the globe.
Public sympathy in this country,
in spite Of President Wilson's re-
quest by proclamation that all citi-
zens remain neutral, seems to be
heavily against the Germans. AS
the writer of these lines has viewed
the matter from the beginning the
German emperor is responsible for
the great struggle now going on,
and deserves to lose the fight, yet
it cannot be denied that the Ger
man people have claims upon pub
lie feeling that are worthy of the
strongest consideration. They are
a brave people, as every battle
proves, and a loyal people as their
whole fight for the interests of their
ruler will show. They are pro-
gressive people. 1t should not be
forgotten that the German people
have contributed more to science
and invention, to literature, to
music and to art than any two of
her present adversaries, and per-
haps all of them. Then it should
be remembered that the private
life of Germany is ten times more
chaste than that of disSolute France,
if not superior to that of any other
nation she is contendine against.
So long as there are ambitious,
greedy crowned heads with pow
erful navies and immense armies
to do their bidding it would be folly
for peace-loving republic like the
United States to move toward dis
armament. More than that, it
would be self-destruction. We
once believed it a useless waste Of
funds and energy for this country
to maintain a large standing army
and navy, but that opinion has
been changed. Without both some
fine day somebody about like the
German emperor, who it has been
shown can 60 to war at the very
drop Of the hat, would swoop over
this way and literally eat US all
alive.

Premier Asks For and is Granted An
other half Million in Addition 10
Those Already Enlisted.

London. Sept. 10.-Parliament to-
day voted to increase the regular
army to the unprecedented strength
of 100000 men. This followed the
request made by Premier Asquith III
a white paper, asking that 100000
men OF all ranks be added to the reg
ular army and that parliament show
no niRgardly spirit toward the men
who were rushing to join England's
far-flung battle line.
The first half million men were
voted August 6. More than $4,000
men, exclusive of territorials, have
answered to this call. These. with
regulars and first reserves that com
posed the army before the first call
and the 100000 that England expects
win enlist in response to the second
call, will make the army stronger
numerically than at any time in Eng
lands history.
The premier, in his communication,
paid a tribute to the war office organ
ization and dealt also with the vari-
Gus difficulties connected with the
rush of recruits. Measures had been
taken, he said, to meet the cOnges-
tion. These included an allowance of
rs cents a day to those for whom no
accommodation could be found in the
barracks. If the grant were passed
he was sure the response would be no
less keen and ample than was that to
the first levy. He could then put
something like 100000 men in the
field. That was the provision of the
