of loss on the cotton market? Here is
the Insurance Policy am talking
about and air it will cost is a part Of
your land, some labor, tools, little
fertilizer and some seed: a@
Farm Insurance Policy for Uncertain
Cotton Market.
1. A home garden for every family
to provide vegetables as near as pos
sible the year round and additional
ground for plot of potatoes, either
Irish or Sweet, or both. Raise sorghum
or cane enough for the syrup of the
family.
2. Produce the corn necessary to
support the family and the live stock
en- the farm for year with absolute
certainty.
3. Produce the necessary oats or
other small grain to supplement the
corn as food and for the winter graz
ing.
4. Produce enough hay and ofrage
to supply all your livestock for
year. In doing so don't forget the
Iegumes because they produce hay and
also enrich the soil.
S. Produce enough hay and chickens
and hogs to supply the meat for the
family. Increase your own livestock
gradually but insure your meat supply
with these.
In other words, Produce Your Living
First. That is the best Insurance
During the past year you were advised
by practically all the agricultural ORC
es in the country to provide these
things as an emergency. When condi-
ticns in the world market are as uncer-
tain as they are at present why not in
sure against absolute loss by putting
this policy into effect?
Safe farming consists in making the
farm self-sustaining whether the cash
crop fails or not and whether the
market fails or not.
To put an Insurance Policy on your
business for the year to protect you
against uncertainties and risks that
you ought not to try to carry your
selves means to produce a living on
TIE farm in the form of things to eat so
as to be independent of the market and
protected against disaster.
Mr.. Business Man, is not this safer
ard surer plan than to risk all on the
price of cotton? Is it not better for
you and better for the farmer?
Farmers, having done as we'll as you
have under the necessity of the past
kear and brought the South thus far
on the road to a self-sustaining agri-
! cultural and independence, are you 60

Teaching a New Dance

The Folk Dance Is a new feature
IN the schools of Cape May County.
1t has formed a part of the County
Field Day program for the past two
years. Wildwood is to be represented
this year for the first time. Cape May,
Upper Township, Middle Township
and Woodbine are also to take part.
The object of the Folk Dance is to give
pleasure to the spectators at the meet,
and to give gymnastic drill to the girls.
To make the contest more interesting,
a pennant is awarded to the school pre-
senting the best dance.
The value of the Folk Dance as a
part of gymnasium work for girls, has
been acknowledged for some time, but
in limited fields only. Recently an
effort has beer made to introduce this
form of physical exercise into our pub
lie schools, and especially where the
girls have the advantage of no other
kind of gymnastics. Cape May Coun-
ty schools have found the practice quite
beneficial.
So far the girls Of Wildwood High
School have shown much enthusiasm,
and they have had a number of enjoy
able and successful practices. The girls
being trained in the dance by Mrs.
Roland Corson and Miss Helen Davis
include, with Dorothy Finn as pianist,
Natalie Holmes, Ethel Cameron, Helen
Geisenberger, Louisa Mack, Florence
Donation, Martha Geisenberger, Joy
Bright, Frances Smith, Helen Coombs,
Margaret Coleman, Helen Mckinley,
Zazel Castor, Gertrude Chalmers, Dor
othy Gerstel, Pauline White, Mary

busy in the House the other day sue
cessfully defending items in the Rivers

The flower exchange held by the
Civic Club at Van Horns store was
quite a success, many calling and quite

given out and exchanged.
This is to be an annual event and it

Surgeon General of the United States Public
 Health Service Is
 Strong Advocate.
'IS BODY REBUILDING
To Improve Materially Health and VigOr of Country'S Entire
 POpuI alton.

NEW YORK, Nov. 21.-Surgeon General Rupert Blue, of the United States Public Health Service, in a letter made public gives his unqual- flied endorsement to universal mil itary training, as beneficial to the public health.
 "I believe system" says Dr. Blues letter, under which all the young men of this country could re- ceive military training would be Of inestimable value. The outdoor life and physical development which such training guarantees could not fail to improve materially the health and vigor of our entire population
 Such a system would mean that every young man would receive care fully supervised physical training at an age when the upbuilding of bod fly strength is most important-and unfortunately, often neglected. As a preliminary to such training, every youth would be given a thorough physical examination, and the value of this one phase of the system would be enormous, for it would re- suit in the discovery of many physi- cal defects or ailments of which the men themselves might be unaware, and which could be remedied by proper measures.
 Tt should be remembered also that the elementary principles of hygiene and sanitation form part of the training of every soldier The public health value of inculcating these principles in the mind of ey- cry youth in the land cannot be oy- erestimated."
 President John Griel' Hibben, of Princeton University, writing on the subject of universal training, said: What we need in this country is universal military training. This will not only insure proper pro- lection in time of war, but through out the years of peace. which we all hope we may enjoy. it will knit to- gether the citizens of our coun- try in a common work. and give them all a feeling of obligation to serve the nation not only in arms, but through the best efforts of citi- zenship."

Three Carloads Daily Are Taken to Anchorage for Railroad and

R. R. PAYING OPERATION
Country Development Is Given Impetus by the Railroad; Resources
 Are Now Open.

SEWARD, Oct. z7.-CBy maiD - The Alaskan Engineering Commis'
 sion is operating @ daily train be. tween Anchorage and Moose Creek on the Matanuska branch, and three
 carloads of coal are being brought to Anchorage daily This coal is for the use of the Commission and llso for the supply of the people It Anchorage. Material and sup plies for the construction of the rail- road are being hauled on this train, as well as freight and passengers, 10 points along the line. The com mercial freight and passenger traf- Tie is paying for the operation Of the train, which enables the Govern ment to transport lts construction materials free of charge from An chorage to its camps on the rail road.
 The population of Anchorage which is the main construction base on the railroad, is between 4,0OO and 5000. At Matanuska. the junction of the Matanuska branch with the main
 inc, townsite was recently sur yeyed by the Government and town is now in course of develop ment. There is also a small town 1t Moose Creek, about fifty miles from Anchorage. where the first mine on the railroad is in operation. At Wassilla, the name of the town where the railroad crosses the Knik- Willow Creek wagon road. several people are gathering. Wasslla will be the distributing point for freight and supplies for the Willow Creek mining district. The Government is taking immediate steps to survey small townsites at these places.
 The railroad north and south from Anchorage passes through and de. velops a large agricultural country. There are now between 800 and 1000 homesteaders along tue line of the railroad in this section, and the az ricultural land is being rapidly de- veloped The homesteaders are sup plying a considerable portion of the food stuffs for the railroad employ ees and other people in that section of the country Recently the Alas kan Engineering Commission con tracted for 400 tons, or over 1S,OO0 bushels of potatoes with the Matan- uska farmers.

Deadly Instrument for War Purposes Secured by United States
 for Its Army.
TO USE FOR DISTANCES
New Device Is Declared to Be Harmless under Ordinary Conditions
 in Peace Times.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 21.-Within a short time the United States ar my will have what is likely to be the most deadly hand grenade of any of. the armies of the world for use in trench warfare and in close fighting. It is a wonderful invention of warfare, invented by an American army officer on duty at the War De- partment It is of the shape and size of the ordinary baseball of the "big leagues" It is thrown ex- actly as baseball h, thrown, and therefore can be "pla:ed with dead ly accuracy"
 The most marvellous feature about the new grenade is that it can be handled with complete safety when not intended to deal destruction to the enemy Unlike the hand gren- ades now in use in Europe, it will not explode, no matter how far 1t drops to the ground nor where 1t strikes, under ordinary conditions.
 In order to explode the grenade 1t is thrown from the hand, just like a baseball with a curve, much as the famous spit ball is thrown. Instead Of the bare hands, the thrower uses a small instrument which he holds in his hand and re. tains there after the ball is thrown. The slight twist given the ball as 1t leaves the hand causes this little instrument to set the plunger in the grenade 80 that it explodes when it reaches it's destination. If it is thrown in the ordinary way it will not explode.
