London, Feb. 19.-(Correspondence
of the Associated Press. )-Charges
that conscientious DIRECTORS to mill
tary service have received violent
treatment are believed by the army
authorities to be ill-founded, and it is
declared by Brigadier General Childs,
director of personal services of the
War Office, that if there has been
any such violence it has now ceased.
Undoubtedly" he said, Gin many
camps there was rough treatment in
a degree at the hands of their COM
rades but it is a matter of question
whether it was actually violent, and
the problem before the War Office
was to put stop to it.
81 can say that the last case of
alleged ill-treatment which came to
the notice of the War Office was in

AUTO KILLS TURKEY.

Someone driving an automobile
Sunday, June Sd, on the Hartford
and Centertown pike, ran over and
killed a valuable turkey hen and
chicken hen for Mrs. James H. Thorn
as, about two miles below Hartford.
If people driving automobiles do not
own poultry and have not the expe-
rience Of hard work it takes to raise
them, as well as the money invested
in them, and realize they are being
raised for the money they will bring
that the money may be used for the
necessities of life, they should at
least, respect their fellowbeings who
do own these fowls, and are trying
in an honest way, to earn a livin".
They would appreciate very niue
being invited to our country homes
to turkey dinner on Thanksgiving
or at Christmas time. They really
feel they deserve it, and should be
our honored guests. Yet they don't
respect us enough to check the speed
of their car and save the lives of our
fowls. They need not say they didn't
see them, if it had been a rock or
stump as large as the turkey or
chicken hen they would have seen it.
If the person driving this car is
gentleman or lady they will come
and pay me the price of these fowls.

1877 IS DANGER
YEAR FOR SOUTH
Twenty Million Bales More Likely
Than Twenty Cents a Pound,
Says Hastings.

Atlanta, Ga--(Special)-That 1917
is a danger year" for the south, and
that there is dynamite in the pres
ent cotton situation for the cotton
growing farmer" are the warning
words used by H. g. Hastings, presi-
dent Of the Southeastern Fair Asso-
citation and the Georgia Chamber OF
Commerce, in an interview given to
the newspapers here urging farmers
not to increase their cotton acreage.
Eighteen to twenty cent cotton at
planting time in spring." he says, "is
the bait that will lure hundreds Of
thousands Of farmers in the south to
each put in a few extra acres, and
should nature smile on the crop as In
1914, we will come nearer twenty
million bale crop than 20 cents per
pound, for evidence multiplies daily
that they are planting right up to
the graveyard ss 1t Is sometimes ex'
pressed.
"On the Hastings farm we don't e1-
pect to put in an acre more Of cotton
than we did last year, because We
think it q time above all others to
play safe. What we will increase to
tho limit Of our ability will be food,
grain and: forage. beet cattle and
hogs.
"The safe way is to first supply all
needs Of family and stock from. ones
own acres, md then put surplus acre
age in Gotten. With bread and meat
in hand, and q garden producing
steadily through spring, summer and
fall; with home canned vegetables and
fruits on closet shelves for winter ia
Bile use; with corn in the crib and hay
and fodder in the barn or stack, the
farmer can be largely Independent OF
cotton prices In the fall. The farmer
so provided for is never distressed
He can sit on his cotton bales with
mind at ease, and sell in his own good
time when prices are right.
with labor comparatively scarce
and fertilizer high, any material in
crease in cotton acreage must nee
essarily be at the expense Of food and
grain acres that are in reality far
more responsible for the south's pres
ent prosperity than is Is to 20 cent
cotton.
Memories are short, but wise far
mers need only to look back to 1914
and see the disaster due to too much
cotton that can't be eaten, and the
lack of food that one must eat I re-
peat this year of 1917, is a danger
year. Any farmer who increases cot
ton acreage and cuts food crop acres
is gambling with the cards stacked
against him."
