The farmer in the cotton country who calculates on making a killing by planting the fence corners" to cotton is destined to a sad awaken ing unless he first plants a large part of his acreage to food and feed crops, and arranges to produce the meat he and his family will need.
 Wheat yesterday sold at $500 per bushel, which means $15.00 flour, according to men familiar with mar ket conditions. July wheat was low CT, closing at $2.32. Corn went to $1.75, with July at $1.45 and Septem- Der at $1.37. Hogs sold at Kansas City at above s15 per 100 pounds.
 These quotations emphasize the necessity of the farmer in the South producing more food and feed than he has been accustomed to produce, And instead of disposing of his cattle and hogs now, he'd better hold onto them. If the war continues another year, the supply will not be sufficient to supply the demand, and prices will be higher than they are now.
 There is no need for panic. The South can be made the most prosper ous and well-fed country in the world. But this will not come through growing cotton only.
 The South can produce feed and food crops, pork and beef cheaper than any other section. If we take advantage of our opportunities, we'll have money to burn and plenty of feed to eat But if we depend upon cotton, expecting to buy our needs with cotton money, we are going to find that we cannot raise enough cotton to pay food and feed bills, and leave fair profit.
 Grow something to eat. and make the South the richest country in the world!

NEW TYPE OF WHEEL
 FEATURE COLE 8

The Cole eight, product of the Cole Motor Car company, oi Indianapolis, and distributed here by the Senyard Motor company, among improvements adopted this year, is equipped with a new type of especially constructed wheel. Many regard this wheel as the most effective and substantial yet offered by American wheelwrights.
 In place of the former type of bent wood felloe, the new wheel has a roll el steel fellce in it's place. Al, Cole Fights are so equipped.
 The spokes in the new wheels are dovetailed at the hub and are essem- bled alternately from opposite sides of the wheel All spokes are forced into the felloe and together at the dove-tail under pressure of forty tons.
 The steel felloe eliminates the slip ping on of the old-fashioned fclloe band which, at times ,loosened. It also eliminates the locking ring on the rinn since the tire rime fits directly onto the felloe band itself and is held

WORkMEN'S COMPENSATION
 LAWS.

The United States supreme court by recent decisions sustaining the va lidity of certain workmen's compen- sation laws rendered secure the po- sition of this class of legislation, so fa1. as the federal government is con- cerned. Awards totaling many thous- ands of dollars and extending over the lifetime of beneficiaries were in volved.
 The April issue of the Monthly Re view of the bureau of labor statlst1cs of the United States departmen' ol labor gives an account Of these de- cisions. one of which uphclds the law of New York, compulsory in regaro to compensation, but allowing options as to insurance: another that or Washington, likewise compulsory put in addition requiring employers un- der the act to contribute to state insurance fund from which all pay ments to bcneficiaries are maoe' while the third sustains the Iowa statute, which is elective, permitting emplovcrs and employees to choose whether or not they will adopt the svstem of compensation. The three general types of compensation les's- ,ot;on ware therefore under revleW' and the constitutionalitv of every es- sential feature of the 'aws was sus- tained.

Now, if submarine ruthlessness can be justified in Germany, why can't other things be justified? For in stance:
 As the men are so overwhelmingly in the minority, and the toll of deaths by the war so tremendous, why cannot the law set aside the marriage relation as we know it and permit every man-for number of years-to have more than one wife
 The end in view would be to re- plenish the empires man-power; and to a certainty this is worthy pur pose fer any nation to follow. The o;iG. then, being the creation of life, why not allow lawl:ss shortcut to that end?
 Perhaps the Germans will immedi- ately reply that the morals of the nation are against it. though the end is worthy one, the means are be- meath consideration. They couldn't set aside the law in that fashion.
 They have done so in regard to the submarine warfare, however; and they did so in regari 70 Belgium. The end to be achieved was victory, and everything that stood in the way was knocked over-including Belgium and international law and morality.
 When it comes to a pointed anal ysis, it would appear that polygamy isn't as bad an infraction of morality as the murder of innocent neutrals- the polygamic system would only af- feet the German people and their morals, while submarine and Bel gianic ruthlessness affected the ln- nocents outside of Germany. who were no party to her quarrel.
 In none of these eases does the end justify the means.

AS THE YEARS PASS
"DO you think, Margie, that l am a
light woman? If Dick should die,
would you be discOnsolate all your
life? Do you know, dear, although
love Max devOtedly, it makes me feel
as though l were not worthy to be
loved as he loves me, for l am always
asking myself if l should lose him
would l live to love again?
1T hurts me, MaTgie, not for Jacks
sake but for my own. l don't want
to feel that l am tickle, but oh, Mar

nothing so dead as a dead love.

started out to write you was that we

coast line slopes back to a chain of
hills.
1T was built in the last half of the
eighteenth century by an Italian car

this morning what had become of
her when the hall boy brought me
couple of letters from Mary
and one from Donna Tenny.
1 opened MaTy's letter first and
read with joy of her happiness, her
pride in her baby and her love and
gratitude for her husband.
DO you know, Margie, Il never
cease to be thankful that my life has
fallen in such pleasant places? Max
is devoted to me and the baby. He
is one of those lonely souls that is
perfectly content to let the world
rush by while he sits with those he
loves about him and dreams.
After my more or less turbulent
youth, this seems to me also the
only way to be happy. Most of
Max's time is spent in acCUmUlatng
a wonderful library. He grows more
excited over a tall copy uncut Of
some first edition than he does over
a letter from his man Of business
telling him that some Of his stocks
have gone up five points.
You would hardly know me now,
Margie. I have grown plump-pO-
sitively fat, I say, but Max insists I
am only plump. All that eXquisitely
happy time, all that terribly unhappy
time with Jack is to me like one of
those dreams which are particularly
vivid when you first awake, but
which Immediately grow so dim that
you cannot remember any Of the
tragic details.
'Margie, there are times when I
cannot even remember how Jack
looked even in those wonderful
weeks when we we're both madly in
