ship Of all official news as TO mo.e-
ments of individual units of the Ma
tional Guard was applied for the first
time.
Maj. Douglas Macarthur, engineer
corps, attached to the general staff,
assumed his duties as military aide to
the secretary and directly in charge
of all war department information
dealing with the Mexican crisis. He
issued his first official communica-
ton as to troop movements and de-
partmental activities during the day.
Information that might be of value to
an enemy was deleted.
Doing Better Than Expected.
1t was stated officially that the
progress of mobilization exceeded the
expectations Of the general staff. Eff
ficient cooperation from railroads and
merchants has eliminated confusion
and delay. 1t now is estimated that
the entire force called out will be on
the border within two weeks, equip
ped for a campaign of any kind.
The framing of proclamation ap-
plying to the National Guard the
draft provisions authorized by con-
gress was begun at the war depaI +
ment. 1t will be made ready for Pre-.
iGent wilson's signature whenever he
decides that the step is necessary.
Officials believe the machinery has
been furnished by congress under
which the whole enrolled strength of
the guard could be rushed quickly to
the border if necessary.
With regard to ordinance and quar-
termaster's supplies now being for
warded to the front, it was said Off
cially that ample provision has been
made for all the present force and
also to care for proper reserves.
There is no shortage of small arms or
ammunition and field artillery can be
supplied faster than men can be
trained to handle the guns.
Considering the great distances
the troops are forced to travel to
reach the border, officials feel that
exceptional speed is being made with
the movements to the South. There
is no instance, it is stated, where
trains have not been available when
called for.
Officers of the general staff are
elated over the success of the mobil-
ization plans. 1t has been accom-
plished through decentralization Of

MORE PEANUTS FOR PROTEIN
Necessary Feed for Profitable Live
Stock - Southern Farmer 10
Particularly Fortunate.

Protein supplements are necessary
for profitable livestock production. 1t
is comparatively easy to provide the
starchy feeds, those which do for en-
ergy and fat production. But protein
is Just as important and frequently
the limiting factor In profitable feed
lr-. Protein feeds are expensive when
purchased on the market. Consequent
ly as many as possible should be
grown on every farm.
The southern farmer Is particularly
fortunate in having natively adapted
protein crops. The corn-belt farmer
must buy most Of his concentrates.
The southern farmer n produce all
he needs at home. Peanuts have long
been recognized as an excellent source
of protein. and John NJ. Scott, animal
Industrialist &c the University of Flor
idh experiment station, urges greater
production. The only factor limiting
their widespread use is the supply.
Peanuts are better adapted to Flor
ida conditions than soy beans. They
they are just AS good feed and are as
easy to harvest. They are tatter feed
than cottonseed meal. because they do
not injure the aigective equipment Of
animals. Hogs can range freely on
peanut pasture. but continuous feed
Ing OF cottonseed meal to pigs is likely
to result disastrously.

attention OF the trade is especially d.
rected TO the change In the nomencla-
ture of the standards for blue cotton.
Since the United States cotton-futures
act became effective. the lowest grade
OF such cotton tenderable on con.
tracts for future delivery made on the
exchanges has been known as low
middling blue-tinged. In the new
standards this cotton is designated as
stained and the grade names are
raised. The reasons for these changes
are
|. There has never been n separate
standard for blue cotton In general
use. Heretofore such cotton has been
sold on type or sample. or else 1t has
been classified according to its
value. based on the white standards
for grade
g Blue In cotton is a stain rather
than a tlnge.
3. In the application OF grade names
II Is considered that each of the color
standards should contain approximate
ly the same amount of leaf and trash
as the corresponding grades of the
white standards. The standards estab-
lished for blue cotton correspond in
grade most nearly to the standards for
middlng. strict middling and good
middling white cotton.
4. Under the fifth subdivision Of sec
tion of the United States cotton.
futures act, stained cotton of the grade
OF middling is the lowest grade Of such
cotton deliverable on contract.
The new and official standards be-
came effective at once and cannot be
changed within a year. nor without
due notice. Practical forms will be
furnished the cottonfuture exchanges
and the spot markets at the earliest
practicable date. The cost OF these
practical forms, or copies OF the
standards, will be s25 for each full set
OF IL boxes, or $3.50 for each box In
fractional sets.
The official standards for color take
the place of the tentative guides for
color issued on February IS, 1915. The
latter may be considered as represent
ing the lower limits OF tenderability
for tinged and stained cotton on future
contracts made on the exchange.

Soy beans seem to be one OF the
most promising crops before the
southern farmer. Every particle of
the plant has economic value. and a
great number of commercial products
are produced from the seed.
II seems that the machinery OF our
cottonseed oil mills is suited TO the
manufacture of soy bean meal and
oil. The soy bean straw Is a good
stock food and the fertilizer resulting
from feeding the plant Is OF much
value.
The roots and nodules left in the
soil improve the fertility. Millions OF

Allen M. Fletcher An Appreciation
BY HOWARD L. HINDLEY

The first impression of Allen NJ.
Fletcher is one Of great mental alert
ness, resolution and tenacity of pur-
pose. One gets a glimpse, through the
eagle glance Of steady and observant
eyes, of spirit of directnoss, courage,
sincerity and one feels the force and
possibility of the man. A few minutes
talk discloses the personal equipment
of the public servant. No one can
meet him without recognizing strong
and potent personality, and no one can
know him without discovering the re-
sources of trained and useful mind.
Mr. Fletcher has been accused of
the Richelieu attitude toward public
service and politics. He has been cred
tied with motives as obscure and as
subtle as those of Maehiavelli. but he
The Brattleboro daily reformer. (Brattleboro, Vt.) 1913-1955, 1916-08-28

cajolery and conspiracy have all failed
to swerve him from fixed course.
Fears for his political future, threats
of public indignity, bitter personal at
tacks and unbridled public criticism
have all been disregarded, so that he
has today a set of political enemies as
solved to prevent his further public
service as any society for reprisal in
the Latin countries of Europe.
AS a public official, the salient char
acteristics of Allen NJ. Fletcher are
courage, diligence, thoroughness, sys-
tenn, shrewdness, independence, hon
esty and integrity Although given to
breaking into new fields and setting
new precedents, no Vermonter has a
higher regard for the ancient land
