Sticks BY the Ship.
The captain of tho stricken liner re-
mained by his ship until it sank. He
declined to comment on the disaster
for publication. Since the official
statement as to whether he believes
his ship was the victim of torpedo
or mine must come from the admiral
ty, although the captain is quoted as
having told an Allen Line official to-
day that the Hesperian was torpedoed.
Try to Save Property.
Captain Main, and the officers who
remained aboard the steamer while ef-
forts were being made to tow the
steamer to port were able to save
some of their effects before the ship
plunged to the bottom, seventy-eight
miles southwest of Fastnet, taking
with her 3,545 bags of mail, much of
it originating in neutral countries.
The Hesperian was built in 1907.
She was 1874 feet long and displaced
2S4 tons. The vessel had a speed VI
% knots.
French Air Raid.
London, Sept. 6.-In reprisal for
German raid on Lumeville, during
market day, which resulted, according
to the French official report, in many
casualties, in most part women and
children, a squadron of II French aer-
oplanes has bombarded the stations,
works and military establishments of
Saarabruken, in the Province Of the
Rhine, Prussia.
Two Boats Sunk.
Two additional British steamers
have met With disaster, either from
submarines or mines,-the tanker,
Cymbeline, of whose crew six were
killed, and the steamer, Mimosa. The
men On the latter vessel were saved.
News Reaches Germany.
Berlin, Sept. 6.-The ne that the
Allen Line steamer, Hespesian, had
been destroyed by an explosion was
published only this afternoon. Def
mite statement that no lives had been
lost and that the steamer had floated
until this morning caused the German
people to take the situation calmly
and there is no misapprehension over
the possible effect the incident may
have on German American relations:
The newspapers abstain2d from
comment aside from advising their
readers in the term of semi-official an
nouncements to await more details,
but in the headlines they indicate
strong doubt as to the accuracy of the
press accounts Of the circumstances,
as to whether the steamer
was torpedoed as described in British
papers.
No reports of the Hesperian from Of
fetal circles need be expected for at
least a week, as the submarine oper-
ating in the waters of "that particular
part of the British coast belong to a
detachment recently sent out.

London, SEPT. 6.-The menace to

Germans still hold the bridgehead at
Friedrickstadt, the occupation of
which effectively cuts off Riga's rail-

Military Duel.
The great military duel in the west
goes on unabated, with the French and
presumably the British the aggressors.
The fact that it has continued for a
fortnight unabated leads to the belief
in some quarters that it may be a pre-
paration for an allied offensive before
the approach Of cold weather.
The Turkish torpedo boat destroyer,
Aver Hisar, has been sunk in the Sea

This is a grand year--a year filled
with the recollections of the Revo-

what our soldiers won upon the field;
a year in which We called for the man
who has torn from the throat of

that has snatched the mask of demo-

MUSSEl MUD AS FERTILIZER
Organic Remains Of sheIIhsh Secure Fertility to Poorest and Most
 Exhausted Soil.

Consul Frank Deedmeyer writes from Charlottetown. P. E. l.. Canada:
 In most Of the bays indenting the shores of Prince Edward island are found extensive deposits of mussel shells. so called locally, being organic remains of countless generations of oysters, mussels, clans. and other bi- valves of the ocean. and of crusta- ceous animals generally. The shells, usually more or less intact. are found imbedded in dense deposits of mud like substance and this combination is a fertilizer of high value and potency. It supplies small quantities of phos- plates and alkalles. An ordinary dressing of 1t secures fertility in a striking manner to the poorest or most exhausted soil. The shells decay slow ly, year by year, throwing of film of fertilizipg stuffs. The deposits around Prince Edward island vary from five to twenty-five feet in depth.

 Miracle.

One Sunday morning a certain young pastor in his first charge an nounced nervously:
 T will take for my text the words, And they fed five men with five thou sand loaves of bread and two thou sand fshes."
 At this misquotation an old gar ishioner from his seat in the amen corner said auGibly:
 That's no miracle-I could do it myself"
 The young preacher said nothing at the time, but the next Sunday he an nounced the same text again. This time he got it right:
 And they fed five thousand men on five loaves of bread and two fishes
 He waited moment and then, lean ing over the pulpit and looking at the amen corner. he said:

ONE OF STAPLE CROPS
Sudan Grass Has Entirely Passed
 Experimental Stage.
Of Especial Value In ser,iario Regions on Account of Its Orousht-Resist. ant 0uaIlties-Superior
 Catch Crop.

iBy DAVID B. CLARKSON. Robstown. Texasi
 Sudan grass has now entirely passed the experimental stage. and has shown itself worthy of place among the great staple crops of America. From bulletins issued by the depart ment of agriculture of the United States and by experiment stations in various states. the following facts re- garding Sudan grass may be stated with authority:
 It is the progenitor of the sorghum family. In appearance it resembles Johnson grass. but 1t lacks the root stalks and therefore never can become c pest. It Is the equal if not the su- perior. of all other forage crops in feeding value. It has a special value as drough,-resistant It possesses re- markable vitality. and will grow and thrive in the face of the most adverse circumstances. On dairy farms it can be fed as a substitute for alfalfa. with out a loss in tonnage. It has been shown that this method of dairy farm ing has resulted in better health for the animals, on account of the greater variety of food. It can be grown in all sections Of the United States. ex- cepting where the altitude is very high or where the climate is exceedingly humid. It has been experimented with successfully as far north as Alberta On account of its rapid growth it prob GhtN has S1lnarinr c catch From seeding to the first crop 75 to so days are necessary. The second cut ting comes on about 45 days after the first. and the third is likely to take a little longer-50 to 55 days. In the ex- trene South as many as four cuttings season have been secured. Sudan grass yields an average of 300 pounds of seed to the acre.
 Sudan grass fits well into most any crop rotation or cropping system prac- ticed in this country. Planted in the spring. 1t produces from two to four crops and is killed by the first freeze of winter. It makes intensive farming an easy possibility where 1t has hith- erto not been practiced. It thus in- creases the possibilities of this coun- try for large population. It produces an average of possibly four tons of hay 10 the acre.
 For this reason our Sudan grass is an ideal crop for the alfalfa growing sections of the United States. To sum up. Sudan grass means much to the nation. because it will augment the supply Of live stock and live stock products; more horses, mules beef cattle. sheep and goats; more milk and butter. Thus the nations food supply will be increased working advantage both to the buyer in the city and the seller iu the country.

Arizona.

A second oil rig has been taken to the Tonto Basin fields.
 The mining camp of Pearce is jubi- lant over the striking of new ore bodies in the Commonwealth mine and the Commonwealth Extensive property. The Commonwealth ore is said to run quite high, with s37 as the lowest assay made from the new body. The Extension ore is said to vary from s20 to s60 per ton.
 With copper slightly off in price from the past several weeks the sit uation carries no fears in the Warren district or to other producing copper sections in the country. The various mines are producing to their limit. The Uncle Sam shaft, down since a year ago, has been put in operation by the Copper Queen Company. The White Tail Deer lease Is now being worked and there is hardly hole in the camp that is not receiving its share of attention.

WHEY IS OF LITTLE BENEFIT
Cheese Factory IL is Usually in No Condition for Calves.

Whey may be fed to calves success fully. but even under best conditions results do not warrant strong recom- mendation. Where whey is taken back 10 the farm from the cheese factory it usually must be fed in fermented or sour condition and is not fit for calves
 Whey contains a little larger propor. tion of fat than is found in skim milk and little more sugar. but only about one-fourth as much protein. Most Of the food value of the milk goes into the cheese.
 In feeding whey to calves add a grain ration that replaces as far as possible the matter removed in the cheese. Corn supplements skim milk but with whey oil meal is to be pre- ferred. Mix half a pound oil meal to a gallon of sweet warm whey and feed like skim milk.
 Where 1t is necessary to raise the calf on whey. you had best feed whole milk until the calf is six weeks old and then change gradually to whey. Some feeders prefer giving the grain dry There are a number of calf meals on the market, of which oil meal or ground fax seed is usually an important constituent, and these can be used successfully to supplement whey and skim milk
