HEAVY SHORTAGE IN
CROP PRODUCTION

The farm crops of the coun-
try, based on the department
of agriculture's October report,
show a decline of over LILO
100000 bushels of grain, 3d.
100000 bushels of potatoes,
26,000,000 bushels of peaches
and 100000 barrels of ap-
pies.
The wheat crop is the small
est since 1904, though our pop
ulation has grown approxima-
-tt 81 V % 20 600 44P since then and
IN competition with home con-
sumers.
Not many years ago we i'm
ported a few cargoes of Ar
gentine corn, but now, for the
first time, we are looking to
that country for wheat, and a
cargo is now on the way to this
country.
With a decrease of over
400,000,000 bushels of wheat,
337 100000 bushels of corn,
311,000,000 bushels of oats
and 100000 bushels of po-
tatoes, eXorbitant prices for
foodstuffs are absolutely GER
tain, and there is no power in
government to change the eff
feet of the law Of supply and
demand.

VALUABLE BULLETIN ON
COTTONSEED READY
FOR DISTRIBU-
TON

A valuable bulletin on the
changes in cotton seed during
storage is available for every
farmer and mill man in the
state who handles seed. This
bulletin has been written by J.
B. Rather, Chemist with the
State Experiment Station at
Fayetteville. At this particular
time, cotton seed oil mill men
and farmers should be interest
ed in the Information which
this bulletin contains.
It is a we'll known fact that
cotton seed mill men wish to
produce {. maximum quantity
Of oil of the best quality from
a given amount of seed. In
storage it is a common know
ledge that cotton seed will
cheat" and deteriorate under
certain conditions. Decomposi-
ton sets up and fatty acids are
farmed which diminish the
quality of oil which can be pro-
dueed. Farmers, ginners and
oil mill men who are holding
seed at this time must remem-
Der that if the seed heat badly
in storage depreciation will
take place even to the extent
of eharring will take place and
as a result will produce an in
ferior product.
Residents of the state who
wish to avail themselves of the
information contained in this
bulletin should write to the
Agricultural Experiment Sta
ton at Fayetteville.

S. E. Kramer Maps Out School Dis
tricts to Facilitate Work in Be-
half of Fairgrounds.

Tentative plans for the collection of
old newspapers and magazines from the

ConvaIescence,

The return from illness to health is
like coming up from dive, supposing
the time from when the swimmer first
sees light through the water until his
head rises to the surface to be the
affair Of weeks. The change in phys
ical condition may be slow, but the
change in orientation takes place in
a twinkling and Is complete. The eye
no longer looks down into unplumbed
deeps, but back toward the light of
day; curiosity for the ultimate yields
to golden memory Of familiar things
friends, household goods, books,
barking dogs, the freshness of grass
and trees. The body has reasserted
Itself. The dreaming imagination is
dragged away from its goal by the
galloping senses. Eye, ear, touch,
taste start upon a rampage. Especially
does the appetite for food wax furious,
discovering itself endowed with power
to transform a cOddled egg into some
thing rich and strange, and to illumine
chicken broth with charm that no
art can equal. The universe, lately
shrunk to the sickroom, now rises
again like the genie out of the bottle
in which he had been imprisoned; the
sickroom becomes house of deten-
ton, and at its door, as in a seashell
clapped to the ear, the convalescent
hearkens to all the rumors of the outer
world.-Henry Dwight Sedgwick, in
The Atlantic.
