GEORGIA TO HARVEST
BIG CROPS THIS YEAR
THE STATE DEPARTMENT OF
AGRICULTURE COMPLIES ES-
INMATES OF PRODUCTION.

Figures compiled by the state de-
partment of agriculture show that
Georgia will harvest one of the most
abundant crops in her history this
year, and will sell practically every
thing she raises at splendid prices.
Highest Cotton Prices.
Of course, it will be necessary for
the state to purchase food supplies
this year, but the proportion bids
fair to be smaller than ever before,
while a good cotton crop will bring
the highest prices since the civil war
According to the estimates, with
due allowance on the side of conserv-
atism, Georgia will make at least L.
100000 bales of cotton that will
bring in round figures S209,000,000,
as compared with a cotton crop
worth S1O9,256,340 last year
The cotton seed, according to es-
Inmates of the United States govern
ment, will be worth in round figures
100000, as compared with $685.
100000 in 1915.

be 63,974,000 bushels, and at the ex-
tremely conservative price of 1925
a bushel it will be worth $79,967,-
500 Corn is now bringing around
$3.50. A good many authorities be-
heve it will bring from $3.50 to 81
when the new crop comes in.
2,O77, 900 Bushels of Wheat.
The states wheat crop is estimat-
ed at 2,077,0 900 bushels, which, at
the estimated price of $500 for the
new crop-which is likewise conserv-
ative, being the minimum price pro-
posed in the food bill-will be worth
$4,154,000
The oat crop is off nearly SO per
cent. this year, owing to unfavorable
weather conditions in the spring. 1t
is estimated at 8,717,OO bushels. At
the very conservative price of rs
cents bushel it will be worth &c.
537,750.
The states potato crop is estimat-
ed this year at 1,438,000 bushels, as
compared with 100000 bushels last
year. At price of $500 a bushel,
the crop will bring $2,876,000.
Georgia sweet potato crop is near
ly so per cent. greater this year, ac-
cording to estimates, than it was last
year. The 1917 figure is 10,148,0
bushels, as compared with 100000
bushels for 1916. At an estimated
price of $3.50 a bushel the years
crop of Sweets" will bring $15, 222,-
600. being second only to cotton
seed.
It is estimated that Georgia's hay
crop this year will run to 4O8, 900
tons, as compared to $4,000 tons
last year. At an estimated price of
$3.50 ton the crop will be worth
$7,140,000.
Fruit Crops Are Past.
The peach crop in 1917 has been
one of the best since the industry was
established. 1t has been gathered and
shipped to market at rare prices, f. 0.
b. the orchards. According to the
Georgia Fruit Exchange it brought
the growers in round figures $4,000

Use Zen,o for Eczema

Never mind how often you have tried
and failed, you can stop burning, itching
eczema quickly by applying a little zemo
furnished by any druggist for Csc Ex-
ira large bottle, $100. Healing begins
the moment zemo is applied. In short
time usually every trace of eczema, tet-
ter, pimples. rash. black heads and SIM
liar skin diseases will be removed.
For clearing the skin and making it
vigorously healthy, always use zemo, the
penetrating, antiseptic liquid. 1t IS not .
greasy salve and it does not stain. When
others fail it is the one dependable treat
ment for skin troubles of all kinds.

THE FOOD FIGHT ON.

The call issued by Herbert C.
Hoover. the nations new food boss, is
a strong. sensible. and timely appeal
for wartime aid from the housewives
of the land.
Food will decide this war;" Mr..
Hoover says, and there is every evil
dcncc OF the truth of that state
ment. Germany is centering it's
hope of winning the war upon It's
ability to send enough submarines to
cut off the supply of food for Eng
land and France. The necessity for
producing the last ounce of food Of
which our country IS capable has
been very thoroughly impressed upon
our people by the administration and
the newspapers. Mr.. Hoover lays
special stress upon the serious duty
of the women of the land to see that
there is no waste and he has formu-
lated a large plan for this work
The women are to be enrolled dur
ing a campaign of registration from
July to July Is. through the Council
Of National Defense and the State De-
tense Councils. Ninety per cent OF
American food consumption passes
through the hands Of our women. 1t
is found that a single pound of bread
saved weekly from each family will
inc!g use our export of wheat 10O,-
100000 bushels. The average saving
of two cents on each meal. every day
ton for war purposes. $4,000 900 900 Il
year. That is a goal worth working
for and it would seem that no one
would suffer seriously by the depriva-
ton.
The greatest thing first is to save
wheat. This ought to be easily done
as Mr., Hoover suggests by having one
whcatlcss day, substituting corn bread
and other cereals. We doubt if the
average man would even notice the
change and two wheatlcss days might
do as easily as one when we consider
the great variation of food to choose
from. The Germans are suffering from
lack Of fats, yet, 1t Is said. that we
consume three times the fats
needed for nutrition. TO supply de-
ficicncy of food of these lines we may
have increased use of fish and vcgc-
tables, and especially corn, buckwhcat,
rye and rice.
Mr.. Hoover makes an especial ap-
peal to preach the gospel of the
clean plate That means a great
deal We need not await the enlist
mcnt of our women in this army to
save and keep, but We may begin
economy of food without further
notice along the lines planned for the
organization which Mr. Hoover has
started. We would like to have the
women of The Missoulian family try
1t out and tell us how it works.

THE RED CROSS NEEDS YOU.

This is Red Cross week. That means
that the people Of Missoula count,
must take active part in driving
campaign to swell the funds OF one OF
the noblest. worthiest movements in
all the history of mankind.
The Red Cross is closer to our
hearts and homes than a year ago
Then we were giving to save the
thousands of Bclsians from starya
children who were victims of the
brutal Huns.
That relief continues. but now the
work takes on a far broader mean
ing. We are giving to save the lives
of our own boys who will soon be ly-
ing broken and wounded on the bat
tie fields of France.
Every dollar is an instrument in
an enterprise to save the lives the
homes. the liberty of the American
people. To help is the stern duty of
every citizen who must remain be-
hind the firing lines while others go
forth to sacrifice.
The share of Missoula county is
100000. Tho work is splendidly or
ganiZcd throughout the land. Every
dollar will be put to the best use.
Let us hold Missoula's record to the
great standard of patriotism set by
the purchase Of Liberty bonds. Let
us over subscribe the Red Cross fund.

Reference was made some time a-O
in these columns to the problems of
dealing with certain aliens who came
to America to avoid service in their
own country and with others who had
lived here many years for other
reasons and had not thought it worth
while to become citizens. Former
Mayor Fitzgerald Of Boston proposes
Il war tax on these aliens That seems
should be sent to the allied armies
Certainly there should be no privileges
given TO aliens which are denied TO the
