A Military Scheme.

James G. Blauvelt. of New Jersey,
. well.known writer and public speak.
er proposes that the standing army Of
500, 600 which General Wotherspoon
ntsorecruited, be made up Of three
classes of reservists. In the class to
first called into service Mr.. Blauvelt
put al men Of families having 500, /.
600 or mors in the second class men
Of families worth SIS. 900 or more, and
in the third class he would include men
of families having $50, 600 or more. 1t
il reasonable to suppose, Mr.. Blauvelt
says, that men who have homes and
property to defend will make better
and more enthusiastic soldiers than
those who have nothing, to which the
latter class most soldiers belong under
the present military system. He also
makes point of the fact that men of
large wealth, recruited as soldiers,
would of course not need to be paid for
their services, and in the event of in
iury or death there would be no need
for the taxpayers to be saddled with a
pension list.

Important as is the employment of

REVEALS AT KENDA1Lv1ILE.

81 The revival campaign at the ~
-. church conducted by the Evan
xelists Wood and Brooks began on
Sunday. Jan. 8, and has continued
throughout the week.
The evangelists have been greet
ed with an appreciative audience
each evening, the members and
friends of the church coming long
distances to hear the music and the
good old gospel.
Sunday night, Jan. 10, the church
was crowded by an interested aud
fence, as Rev. Wood preached. Inc
people drank in every word and at
the close of the service the invita-
ton was given and severa' came
and surrendered their lives to the
Lord.
Rev. Wood is a powerful speaker.
His sermons are effective and are
producing the desired results whlle
ha is an earnest and consecrated
gentleman, also one whom it is a
pleasure to meet socially.
The chorus choir conducted ny
the chorus leader c. B. Brooks is al
40 a great attraction. The young
people seem to be singing with the
spirit and understanding. Mr.
Brooks succeeds in leading the song
service, so the congregation desires
to sing as we'll as he choir, giving
everyone who attends the service an
opportunity to praise the Lord IN
songs.
Mr.. Brooks sings solo each eV-
ening and it seems to be enjoyed py
all, II one may judge by the COM
ments made by the auditors.
The revival will continue all TINS
week, closing Sunday at the morn
ing service, the 18th.
The evangelists will go to the
Albion M. E. church and begin a
revival campaign at that place De-
ginning Sunday evening. Jan. IL.
Everyone is invited to attend the

cultural state in the Union, with q per
capita of farm wealth which in amount
and equity of distribution is not equal
ed by any other commonwealth. AS
between the man who bought Iowa
land twen ~ five or thirty years ago
and the man who bought Iowa railroad
securities at that time, who has had
the best of it? And yet, did not the
men who furnished the money with
which Iowa railroads were built, con.
tribute tremendously toward the great
enhancement in land values which has
taken place in this state? Would the
enhancement, which amounts to hum
dreds of millions of dollars, have been
possible without the railroads?
In round numbers, Iowa has about
IS. 600, 600 acres of farm land. Accord
ing to the U. S. census reports there
was an increase of ITO per cent in the
value of Iowa farm lands from 1900 to
1914 period of ten years. During
the four years which have elapsed in
the meantime it can safely be estimat.
that the increase has been brought up
to ut least 12O per cent. Perhaps,
taking the state as whole, farm lands
have enhanced somewhere around $75
per acre during the above period-but
upon even 80 low Q basis as $4,000 per
acre the enhanced land values of Iowa
have added one billion, seven hundred
and fifty million dollars to the wealth
of Iowa farmers during the last four
teen years. In view of these facts, is
it not to the interest of the farmers of
this state to insist upon a "squate
deal' for the railroads?
AS matter of fact, were it not ESQ
tremendously far reaching in its effect,
the controversy over slight increase
in railroad rates in any great agricult.
ural state would largely resemble a
tempest in teapot-a matter which
should be settled in the brief space of
time required to apply the remedy.

FIRST SHIPMENT
SUMTER'S WHEAT
ATLANTA MILLS
POOLE & SONS MADE SHIPMENT
TODAY AT SIPS BUSHEL.

The first shipment of Sumter grown
wheat, to be converted into wholesome,
nutritious flour, was made today when
J. H. Poole & Sons shipped a large
quantity produced upon their farm
near Americas to the Atlanta Milling
Co., which offers to buy all he Sumter
wheat sent there. The price paid was
$1.25 per bushel, here, with freight
charges additional of six cents per
bushel, the wheat thus netting about
$1.19. In view of the fact that an en-
ormous wheat crop is now about to be
marketed, especially in the middle west
as well as in the South, this price is
considered very good, and many pro-
ducers will doubtless sell portion of
their crop, while other will have the
wheat made into -four at neighboring
mills for home consumption. The
Poole shipment is the first lot of wheat
sold, so far as known, in this section.
