From the Editors Desk

Vacation days are over. School be-
gins next Tuesday. Everyone for
fgnate enough TO have change OF
scene and recreation from the daily
routine is supposed 10 have come back
from The mountains or seashore rested
ard ready for o more weeks Of toll
until another vacation time rolls
around. II you have no family and
no youngsters TO get into school per.
baps you yet have your annual time
off in store for you aud feel sorry
for those whose vacation days are
over Perhaps you have been to sea
side or mountain resort, seen the fine
hotels, fine summer estates and the
weIl-te do burning up gasolene IN
their heavy high powered cars II
YOU are sn extreme optimist this may
not have made the least impression on
you. On the other hand If you are an
extreme pessamist you may have re-
turned with "a crouch and the belief
that the worldly goods are not dis
tfibuted equitably. II you are nor
NAL healthy person you are prob IDLY
glad you are alive and getting three
good meals day, a comfortable place
10 sleep and plenty OF good country
air and vegetables. You thank good
ness you are not cooped up in hail
bedroom or a crowded tenement Of
large city. Putnam is your home
town, you are proud Of ii and glad to
get back. That is the right way TO
feel and if you look ut IL in that light
your vacation certainly has been a
healthy benefit to you.
One day this week we noticed an
automobile parked in front OF fire
headquarters on Union Square block
ing the way OF our eight thousand
dollar fire truck should its services
suddenly be required. This brings TO
mind that some months ago the COM
mon council voted to have sign
painted on the building so that the
drivers OF vehicles would not mistake
1t for the city hall, public market or n
storage warehouse. Perhaps in the
concentration of intensive food pro
duction the sign has been forgotten.
Up on the corner Of South Main and
Grove streets city employees were seen
Tuesday morning handling large
slices of granite. We do not need TO
tell you that 1t was not for,the founda-
ton OF, the new post Office building
In the first place you wouldn't be-
iieve IL and In the second place il
wasn't. The street department was
just putting in the cufbing nj this
sharp corner and thereby transforming
the acute angle into a graceful semi
circle. The United Estates govern
ment allowed the city about 10 feet of
land to Improve this corner. How
ever Ii is now up 10 the city to con-
struct sidewalk on the three sides OF

Il minimum price for 1917 crops the

that eggs are now going into cold

FEED MORE C0TT0HSEED MEAL
Greater Profit Realized by Method
Suggested by University AgricuI-
tural Experts.

Fayetteville, Ark, Sept. 17.-Instead
Of using cottonseed meal as a fertil-
yer Arkansas farmers should feed it
70 their cattle and then use the manure
according to DR.. F. Hungerford, assis-
tant professor of agronomy, College of
Agriculture. Professor Hungerford as
serts that by doing this the value of
the meal would be increased by from
so to So percent.
1t is pointed out by Professor Hun
gerford that the purchase of Texas
cattle by the farmers of Arkansas
makes is especially necessary to Sc
cure additional feed. Only about 25
per cent of the fertilizer value of the
meal is lost by feeding. Thus the
farmer who feeds his cottonseed meal
and then uses it as fertilizer realizes
on its high fool value and at the same
time gets IS per cent of its fertilizer
value.
