stlde It41ian liner Ancona The de-
partment does not know the source of
information contained in consular
dispatches and dispatches from Am
bassador Page, at Rome, and is yet
unable to determine how many Am

It is entirely without official ad.
vices as to the circumstances of the
sinking or the nationality of the sub.
marine which shelled or torpedoec
the ship. Dispatches from Malta
Lebon and Bizerta, Rome and Naples
all contained fragments of informa,
ton.

thorities here investigating the re-
ported forcible search of the Ameri-
can steamer Zealandia at Progreso,
Mex, by a party from a British
cruiser have information which leads
them to believe the Zealandia when
searched was lying more than three
miles off shore and was therefore on
the high seas. They are investigating
further and the state department is
making inquiries.
Latest information TO British
sources is that the Zealandia, which
has been suspected of being engaged
in unneutral operations since she
cleared mysteriously from Pensacola,
Fla, last month was intending to go
from the Mexican port to Sweden.
She carried rosin which is used for
making shrapnel.

MAGIC OF THE PALM.

The Arabs have saying about the
palm tree, that ii stands with its feet
in salt water, and its head i'm the sun
They often cannot drink of the brak-
ish water found in the oasis where the
palm grows, but they tap the tree and
drink the sweet palm wine. The
palm tree, by the magic of its inner
life. can so change the elements found
in the unkindly soil around in that
they minister TO its growth and its
strength and fruit bearing. SO, you
and l, in our earthly life, must often
have our feet in the mire of bitterness
of sin around us, and upon our heads
will often beat the fierce heat of temp
tation. But, in spite of these things
we shall be able to grow and grow
strong, rejecting the evil and assimi-
lating the good, if within us there is
the making of new life through Je-
sus Christ.

RAISE THINGS THIS YEAR.

The slogan for 1915, is Raise
Things" not "raise sand" or raise
Cain, but raise things to eat for the
family and for the stock. Yes, raise
cane, too, for we need molasses for
our buckwheat cakes next winter.
Wagon loads of baled hay and straw,
arc still passing every day from the
depot to the country, and also loads
OF chop and seed oats. Why should
a farmer living in country as rich
as IS Tazewell, pay taxes on boundary
OF land, keep from two to six head of
horses, and not make enough on the
farm to feed it 1T least? Why?
Whose fault? Somebody's misman-
agement, that's all. If the farm is
too poor" whose fault is that? Such
a farmer had better quit. Sell the
farm TO some man who knows how
and will take care with it. Better still
change the methods and plans of work.
Some one has said that "a bale of
bought hay or straw or chop in the
hands of farmer is a badge of dis
grace" We would not say that much
Circumstances alter cases. There are
times and conditions when the best
OF farmers run short of feed, and
have to buy. But the general
proposition holds, that farmer
should and can, if he will, grow
enough and more, on his farm, to take
care Of the farm. If he cant he had
better quit. He is wasting his time.
His years are Slipping away from
him and he is not getting anywhere.
Some one hsis-neticed- and remarked,
that every team passing the road,
loaded with feed shipped in, is a poor,
hungry looking team. The farmer who
has to buy feed seldom ever feeds his
team as much as they need. He is
compelled to "be stingy and saving. ;"
The slogan this year is, "Raise
Things" Stop the leaks. Stop this
buying feed. Raise things during the
good year 1915.

HAULING DIRT.

"What you haulin', Bill, fertiizer?'
"Yes," said Bill. "I've got ton, and
its heavy as lead, too, logged if |
eyed seed such heavy stuff. It's jist
about all my horses can do to pull it.
They are weak anyhow; hain't had
much to feed on this spring" "Going

Joggin'. It'll be feedin' time before
l git home now. Goodbye and Bill
was gone.
Let's see. Bill had on 1000 pounds
of 1922 fertilizer. This means eight
pounds phosphoric acid, pounds pot
ash and 2 pounds nitrogen in each one
hundred pounds of fertilizer-12
pounds of plant food in each 100
pounds. In his ton of 1000 pounds
'hSANioiS, liz Ittu l. pcICcHl ltTlll-
izer or 240 pounds in the ton. Sub
tract 240 from 1000 pounds and 1850
pounds is left. What is this 176O
pounds? Nothing in the world but
dirt. This is what Bill was hauling
"as heavy as the dickens" which he
paid for at the rate of $3.50 ton
and no better dirt than he has on his
own farm. But Bill wanted ton OF
cheap fertilizer, and the fertilizer
people had to make it for him and
for thousands of brethren of like
mind. If Bill had known how and
chose to do so, he could have bought
the ingredients and mixed them with
1850 pounds of his own dirt, and had
his ton of fertilizer for about $3.50
or less.
And another thing Bill should know
The most costly ingredient, land the
most valuable, perhaps), in his ton
of fertilizer was nitrogen. Over every
acre of his little farm there hovers
like blanket $4,000 tons OF this val.
liable plant food. All Bill has to dc
in order to get it into his land is to
grow, now and then crop of the
legumes-the clovers, peas, alfalfa
etc. But, he doesn't know all this
Some folks do know, but go on in the
same old way, "hauling dirt" anc

Hon. II. C. Galloway ,ex-postmaster,
of Graham, Tazewell. Strange as it
may appear, it is fact, that these
distinguished luminaries of the po-
litical armament, remnants of a de-
funct political party, known in histo-
ny as the G. o. p, omitted and over
looked a very important indictment
against the Democratic administra-
ton. The resolutions name and con-
dem the impotent foreign policy of
the administration, which has kept
us out of war in Mexico and in Eu-
rope and condemns also our refusal to
resent insults to the flag, lack of pro-
lection to American citizens, on which
subject the distinguished committee
of three were eminently qualified to
judge, and whose criticisms should
have great weight in this country and
in Europe; and further the resolu-
tons condemn" the policy of ex-
travagance and mismanagement
which has brought about the "prcs-
ent business depression" and which
has changed this country from pros
perity to poverty" And light here
the weak points in those rcsolu-
tions, destined to become historic, and
to render the names of the trainers Of
the immortal document, famous. when
the political history of this country
is written, viz: the resolutions do not
specify "whar in" 1t should have
been stated that the recent disas-
trous scourge of foot-and-mouth dis
a a
both were due to Democratic misman-
agement. Here is the point of glar-
| ing weakness in the great resonu-
ton. Strange these facts should have
been overlooked. Senator Royal and
Mr.. Witten, the nominees, were pres
cnt, and no doubt fully endorsed the
Platform" upon which they were nom
mated, but there is no record of pro-
test or suggestion of amendment to
the resolution on the part of either of
these lawmakers of platform of
criticism and judgment of great
political administration. Only the
broad, unqualified statement appears,
that this country, the once great and
rich and pawerful United States, has
been changed from prosperity to
poverty" We arc not at a loss to
divine how the great change has been
wrought in so short time. 1t was
the Democratic foot and mouth dis
case at home and the European war
abroad. that brought all this poverty"
