TWO LAND
TRANSFERS
Harrison Property in Port Gibson
and Owings Place Near Pat
tison Change Hands.

Two important sales of real
estate were made within the past
week in Claiborne county, both oi
which properties brought much
more than their former owners
paid for them.
The Chas. Owings tract of SOC
acres, on the Port Gibson and
Pattison road. was bought by Will
bur c. Trimble of Walnut, Illinois.
This property is a part of what
was formerly the Jeferies Vaucluse
plantation, Mr.. Owings buying 1t
from Mrs. Mollle Briscoe about
two years ago.
Mr.. Trimble expects to get pos
session of the place Jan. Ist next,
and will move his family there.
1t Is not known whether Mr..
Owings, who Is also an Illinois
man, will remain In the county or
return to that state.
The other sale was the Harrison
place of 200 acres In the corporate
limits Of Port Gibson. 1t was
formerly the Williams property,
bat for many years has been known
as the Burch place. A little more
than a year ago ]. 1. Harrison, a
Tennesseeian, bought the place,
and has raised valuable crops upon
his year. The land is rich and
; well for cultivating. The pur
chasers. Hay brothers of St. Lou
Is, will take possession as soon as
the present crops are gathered.
George Hay, who will move his
family here the first of next year,
expects to return within the next
few weeks and begin planting
grain. However, stock raising
will be bis chief aim.
Mr.. Harrison hopes T. be able
60 locate another suitable place in
this neighborhood, as he does no,
wish to leave the county.
Both properties are attractive,
on account of desirable location as
well as adapaibility to farming.
The sales were made By Nj. z
Headley, real estate dealer.

way can there be an assurance that
Americas food supply will meet
our own needs. In no other way,
surely, can we answer the enor-
nous demands made upon us for
furnishing food for our Euro

Every pound of food products
grown this year will be needed to
combat food famine. The loss that

tanned In no other way.
Drying must not be regarded as
taking the place of preservation of
vegetables and fruits In tins and
glass jars. 1t must be viewed as
an adjunct there to.
Drying Is important and eco
nomiCal In everV home, whether
on farm, In the village, town or
city. For city dwellers 1t has es-
pecial advantage, that little stor-
age space is required for the dried
food. One hundred pounds of
fresh food will reduce to 10 pounds
in drying without loss of flavor or
food value.
This year need for drying is
given added emphasis by the short
age of tin for the manufacture of
cans. For. this year. therefore,
drying Is of more than normal I'm
portance. Dried products can be
stored In receptacles that could not
be used for canning.

Recently the home of A. D.
Ragsdale, near Peyton, in the
fifth district, was destroyed, to.

furniture and household effects.
Mr.. Ragsdale carried no insurance,
therefore the loss is a heavy one.
He and his family are occupying
a tenement on the place until the
residence can be rebuilt.

Red Cross nurse and has gone to
Louisville, KY, to begin training.
Miss Allen Is the first Claiborne

UKULELE CLASS WILL
BE STARTED AT Y. M,

The Y. NJ c. A. is breaking into
the Tourist League" this week with
the opening of class in teaching the
ukulele. For long time many tour
lists have been coming to the Hawai-
ian islands and in their short stays
have found that the ukuleIe; instruc-
ton price was above their mark and
consequently many have gone back
with a ukulele and an instruction
book and with little knowledge of the
instrument itself:
The Y. NJ. {. A. will start a class
opening Friday night under the tutor
ing of Ernest Kaai, the master of mu-
steal things Hawaiian. The course
will consist of ten lessons. A part of
the course that makes it attractive Is
that a ukulele will pc given to each
member Of the class enrolling. Mr..
haai, who is also a manufacturer Of
the uku'e,e. has been able to furnish
these instruments to the Y. M. c. A..
class at a very reduced rate. The
class will he feld from to 8 O'Clock
at the Y. NJ. c. A. Already there are
a number of men enrolled and 1t Is
expected that there will be no trouble
in filling the class to its limited ca
pacity. r. K. Thomas of the educa-
tional department is in charge of en-
rolments.

Bodily Housekeeping

(By Samuel. Hamilton, NJ. d.
The subject OF drinking water with
meals has been misunderstood.
In recent years investigation by
means of X-rays, the observations Of
Pavlov, Fowler, Hawk, prove that an
abundance of water taken during d.
gestion is necessary to good bodily
housekeeping. To drink a pint of hot
water before meals is good practise.
and those suffering from a catarrhal
condition of the stomach will find
benefit in adding about 10 grains
(one-sixth of a level teaspoOnfuD of
baking soda, drinking it an hour be-
fore each meal. Those who are in
clined to hyperacidity should drink
slowly a pint 81 medium cold water,
two hours after meals.
IL your kidneys are sick, or you
suffer with lumbago er rheumatism at
times, pain in the back or back Of
the neck, take a little Anuric Iefore
meals. This can be found at any
good drug store, and was first dis.

Institute, in Buffalo, N. Y.
When run down, when life indoors
has brought about a stagnant condf-
ton in the circulation-most everyone
is filled with uric acid-especially is
this so of people past middle age.
This uric acid in the blood often
causes rheumatism, lumbago, swelling
of hands or feet, or a bag-like condi-
ton under the eyes. Backache, fire;
quent urination or the pains and stiff
ness of the joints and high blood pres
sure are also often noticed. Every
one should drink plenty Of pure water

as possible. l have found that An

GUN RUNNERS
OPERATED FROM
Dutch F. indies
South African Mine Manager
Tells of Conditions Among
the British Forces

Two ships, loaded with munitions
OF war, and in all probability oper-
ating from a base somewhere" in the
Dutch East Indies, have recently sup
piled the German armies in German
East Africa with munitions. One of
these vessels succeeded in returning
to Java in a sheH-riddled condition.
The fate OF the other is unknown.
The feat performed by these gun-run.
ming vessels wildly recalls similar at
tempts by the Maverick and other
vessels operated by Fred Jebsen.
This is tne statement OF Carl Ray.
mond Davis, manager OF the Brakpan
gold mines Of johannesburg, South
Africa. Davis is an American who
passed through Honolulu recently on
his way to San Francisco to place his
two children in school.
According to Davis, the campaign
against the Germans in their East
African colony is now largely conduc.
ted by force Of 10000 negro Askaris
and by troops from British India, stiff
fened by a few white troops. The
whole force Is under command of the
Boer general, van Deventer, who made
his mark in the great Boer war. Da,
Wis says that fever is taking numer.
Gus victims among the white troops
operating in East Africa, and so per
cent OF the whites have to be re-
patriated to Capetown, Johannesburg,
or Durham shortly after they arrive
in the fever-haunted East African
country.
Davis stated that one of the YES
sells which, flying the Swedish flag,
entered Capetown harbor for supplies,
and afterwards planted mines near
Capetown and Ceylon with disastrous
results to shipping, has since been
captured by the British and is now
anchored in al port of the island of
Ceylon.
Davis says that the late Boer re-
bellion under Gen. de Wet was largely
based on the prophesies of so-called
prophet from the Cape Colony, named
van Rensburg, who predicted an indie
pendent South African state.
