to be the banner year of the agri-
culture people of the South and West.
We are told that fortune knocks at
every mans door once in life. Let us
hope this will be true to certain
extent in 1917. The world today is
consuming at greater rate than it
is producing. Europe is taking all
oar exports she can get. A great
deal more of the products of Amer
lea in the shape of cotton, grains of
all kinds would go over if only Ger
many could get it. England with her
superior navy, and with her "Bull
Dog" grip Of commerce and her de-
termination to starve the Kaiser and
his bunch of war devils, are keeping
back stuff that Germany would glad
ly buy.
This is the time that the Southern
and Western farmer should awake to
the true realization of their golden
opportunity, that old adage we all
know, make hay while the sun
shines" The cost of living should
not bother the farmer, he first of ali
should make special effort to make
himself self supporting, this can be
done by making what you must have
to live on at home. every farmer
should make his living at home, if he
doesn't he is not making success
OF the greatest avocation on earth.
l cannot picture or imagine anything
more enviable than to see a man sur
rounded by home luxuries, produced
by his own hands.

THE MANNING TIMES.

Next year will be good time to
raise grain crops, vegetable crops,
farm animals Of all kinds and fowls.
Why; this country is now import
ing eggs from China. Just think of
it, when we should be exporters in
stead of importers. The blooming
Cinnamon is digging up eggs buried
by his forefathers fifty years ago and
exporting them tt the foreign devils
in America. The farmer can put his
eggs up so they will keep just as
any intelligent economist can tell you
how to do this.
Nineteen-sevente will be an ideal
time for early truck patches, beans,
cucumbers, squash, ETC., will bring
People are going to buy this kind of
truck to reduce the cost of living. If
things are in big demand now, should
they be in less demand next year,
when people will need them Just as
much as they do now?
This country certainly can not get
the cost of living reduced until we
have made enough for ourselves and
Europe too. See that you are a pro-
ducer in the future, profit by what
you now see and know to be true.
We are to be congratulated upon
the reelection of Woodrow Wilson,
man that has done more for the
agricultural class of people of this
country than all our presidents from
Father George Washington to Woo
row Wilson'S day. He has put the
country on sound financial basis
His mastery over Wall Street in nine
teen fourteen, when he put a crimp
IN the money panic, that the Wnll
street Leaches, were about to put on
the South and West, to prevent them
from getting money to handle the cot
ton of the South and the grain crops
of the West. l will mention only one
thing that he did that prevented this
and that was the establishing of the
Federal Reserve Bank. And Mr..
New York Banker unlike what he did
under a Republican administration
opened his money vaults to the South
ern and Western banker and said bv
this Wilson is for the American peo-
pie" We find that he has more sense
than Teddy Roosevelt, and that we
can not bring money panic as was
brought under our tool Mr.. Roose-
velt and the Republican administra-
ton in 1907"
God Almighty has seen proper in
MS providence to help the American
people beat this bunch of grafters
again in 1917.
Wilson's reelection is absolutely
unparalleled in American history. We
fail to know of man being elected
to the high Office of President of the
United States of America, without
the sanction of New York, Pennsyl-
vania, New Jersey and Illinois.
Wilson won in spite of Wall Streets

He won in spite of the Pcnnsylva

A Distinctive Reason

What is the chief reason for the superb
ority of Royal Baking Powder?
There are several good reasons but there
is one which distinguishes Royal from other
baking powders.
This reason, which every woman should
know, is that Royal Baking Powder is made
from cream of tartar, which comes from
grapes. This means a healthful fruit origin.
1t means natural food as distinguished from
mineral substitutes used in other baking
powders.
There is no alum nor phosphate in Roval
Baking Powder.

Weeks Outing for Their
Past Years Services.

The first annual camp of the
choir boys of ST. Johns Episcopal
church will be pitched Friday morn
ing, July IA, for week or ten days,

worthy by their attendance. deport-
ment and general proficiency In
private work.
Sunday, July 16. will be visitors
day and the adult members of the
choir are invited to spend day at
camp.
The boys will sing the service at
st. Barnabas', Montrose, at IL o'clock
Sunday morning.
This is the first camp that has
been given ST. Johns choir for some
twenty odd years, and is unique be-
cause of the fact that it costs the
individual choir boy nothing, and is
given to the boys by the congrega-
ton as mark of appreciation for
the services rendered during the past
year.

since 1t was opened recently and
there have been no accidents there.

Fishing for Sharks.
NEW YORK, July 13.-With great
chunks of raw beef dangling from
graphing hooks, several score of men
were fishing along the Jersey coast
this afternoon for the man-eatlng
shark, or sharks, that have terror1zed
bathers at Atlantic coast resorts.
Other squads sped up AMI down the
coast in motor boats, armed with
rifles and keeping a sharp lookout
for the man-eaterS that have killed
four bathers and badly mangled a
fifth within week.
A wire net was thrown across
Matawan Creek, the twenty foot Jer-
sey stream penetrated by the shark

were practically deserted this after
