In Memory of Josie Mai HadIey
Gone hnt moi foreotten.

Gone but not forgotten.
On Thursday night, August, 2, at
1890 o'clock, the Death Angel Wis
tied our community again and took
from us one of our most precious
jewels. Little Josie Mai had been
sick for several weeks, but not dang
erously until the morning before her
death the following night. She suf-
fered many hours before her death,
but at last voice called, "come,
little Josie Maj
She left behind many weeping eyes,
aching hearts and minds, wondering
why God would permit death to take
from us one so much loved. Little
Josie Mai was of such sweet dispo-
sition-a disposition that everyone
loved, and she was always so kind
and playful and bore her sufferings
so patiently. She gave no one trou-
Bile. Little Josie Mai was a favorite
and pet of relatives and loved by all
VINO knew her, perhaps too bright for
this world. We eannot say or do
anything to heal the broken hearts
Of the parents but, we think, they
should take comfort in the thought
that little Josie Mai is singing with
the angels in heaven.
A precious one from us is gone,
A voice we loved to hear so well,
A place is vacant in our home,
Which never can be filled
Al LOVED ONE

Apple Pot Pie.
An old-fashioned Arizona cook
makes a pot Apie of apples instead
of meat, using the following reci-
pc:
Nearly fill a deep granite ware
baking dish with tart apples pared
and cut into thin slices. Sprinkle the
apples generously with sugar and dot
over with small ,bits of butter and
cover with soft crust, made as bis
cult dough without shortening. The
crust should be about half an inch
thick. Cover the dish closely and set
back on the range where the apples
will cook slowly, and the crust will
steam and cook thoroughly. When
done place in a hot oven to brown
quickly. Tip out on a platter and
serve with butter and sugar sauce.
This pot he may be used as the main
dish of simple lunch, or as a hear
ty dessert to supplement a slender
dinner.

OVERSEE FORCE TO NUM-
Der 100000 MEN

Washington, Aug. 19.--The Wal
Department is planning to send more
than 100000 infantrymen to France
On the basis of two infantrymen tx
one artilleryman the ratio reserved
in the organization of the new divis'
ions this will mean that at the very
least our overseas forces will mum.
Der 100000 fighting men.
OF the million or more the United
States will soon have under arms
the remainder will be retained in the
United States as depot troops from
which the vacancies in the expedi.
tionary forces will be filled.
This statement, the first authori-
tative indication Of the actual num-
Der of fighting men to go abroad
was contained quite incidentally in a
bulletin from the committee on pub
lie information today.
Officials have hitherto maintained
strict silence on the matter and to-
day no further information as to the
time or order of the moving Of
troops was permitted to be published
1t is known, however, that 100000
men a month can be transported to
Europe and kept in supplies there
with the shipping now at hand. If
the full possibilities of the shipping
facilities are availed of and it has
always been insisted they would, this
will mean that the 100000 men will
be in Europe within the year.
The bulletin of the committee on
information on which this state
ment was contained related to the
cost Of the equipment of infantry
men.
Each mans full equipment to start
with will cost $156.3O, divided as
follows:
Clothing, ETC., $lO1.21; eating
utensils, etc, $7.73;. fighting equip
ment $47.36.
The fighting equipment, which
includes steel helmets and gas
masks, is to include the United States
rifle, model 1903, generally known
as the Springfield. 1t is announced
that the first 100000 to 100000
troops to go to France will carry that
weapon, but that the so-called En-
field rifle, used by British troops, is
being manufactured to equip other
American troops and had been Off
cially designated as the United
States rifle model 1911 Sit s This means
all the infantry of the original ex-
petition will carry the Springfield"
1t is not stated in the announce
ment where the British Enfield is
being manufactured, but recent re-
ports have it to the effect that it is
being made in England.
The estimates Of cost have been for
infantrymen only, and only those who
are to go to France are mentioned.
Figured ON a basis Of 100000 it will
cost in round numbers $125,000,O00
for infantry equipment alone.
These figures do not, of course,
include transportation, subsistence,
medical supplies, ammunition, etc,
except that on the item of ammu-
milton each man is furnished, as a
starter, with 100 cartridges. The
addition which will be needed at the
front is not mentioned, nor many 9th
err items.

Ready for wheat


Every possible acre should be sown
to wheat OF rye except that which is
needed for q summer crop next year.
Give the corn or cotton tate cuitl-
walton to improve the seed bed for
wheat.
Cut and shock the corn and begin
soil PREPARATION between the shock
rows at once. On level, clean land the
seed may be prepared by thoroughly
double disking one or more times. On
rolling land this is liable to wash, the
subsoiler should be run once under
each row and once in the middle be-
fore disking.
If the turn pillow is necessary to
turn under weeds and grass, use the
disk before and after turning. In
the absence of packing rains use the
roller Immediately before sowing. The
corrugated pipe is preferred.
Green Feed for Poultry.
Dwarf Essex rape is one of the most
satisfactory and succulent green feeds
for poultry. At this season Of the
year, when the early summer garden
has served its usefulness, what
ground can be spared should be spad-
ed, prepared well and sown to Dwarf
Essex rape for green feed for winter.
1t is also cover crop which will
make the garden more productive
again next year.
Lettuce, beet tops, turnips and
mustard salad may be used as green
feed. Small potatoes and waste veg
etables may be used to advantage as
chicken eed.
Cow Testing For Profits.
The first cow-testing association
was organized in Tennessee in Deem
Der 1915, composed of dairymen in
Jefferson and Hamblin counties. 1t
was known as the jefferson Hamblin
Cooperative Cow-Testing Associa.
ton, and was not only the first one
organized in the State, but was also
the one farthest south in the United
States. 1t completed its first years
work December 81, 1916, and was
Immediately recognized as the JEFF
ferson County Association. All Of
the Jefferson County dairymen who
were members the first year joined
the second year. The cow-testing as
sociation is becoming very popular
with the Tennessee dairymen who
are fast realizing the efficiency
Of this means Of placing the dairy
herd on a more profitable basis. There
are now eight associations in Oper-
alton and several more are being or
ganized.
Don't Vaccinate Sick Hogs.
Anti-hog cholera serum prevents
but does not cure hog cholera. You
cannot replace structures once des-
troyed by injecting serum. To make
vaccination pay in the treatment of
sick herds we advise the following
methods:
Make three divisions of your hogs
as follows: First, well hogs; second,
infected hogs that it will pay to treat;
third; infected and sick hogs that it
will not pay to treat. This is easily
done by taking out all hogs showing
symptoms of disease. This must be
done carefully, and mark them by

winter in America. Trees shed their
bark instead of their leaves; fruit
has the stone or the kernel outside;
swans are black; there is a species Of
fly that kills and eats the spider
and a fish called the climbing perch
walks deliberately out Of the water
and with the aid of its fins. climbs
the adjacent trees after the insects
that infest them. When to this We
add that most of the birds have no

MedfOrd Bonding
Plan Is Illegal

The supreme court, by a unani-
nous opinion rendered Thursday,
knocks out the so-called Hanson re-
bonding plan for Medford and holds
that the Bancroft act is valid and, as
the street improvements Of that city
we're ordered and laid under the pro-
visions of that act, those provisions
must be followed in the payment of
the assessments therefor.
Medford paving assessments are
largely still outstanding. In an ef-
fort to clean up its Indebtedness and
get the city finances in ship-shape,
the city council employed Colonel
Hanson of Seattle to canvass the sit
uation and devise plan that was at
the same time workable and as fair
as possible to all concerned. His
plan was adopted by vote Of the
people and called for general re-
bonding Of the city to retire out
standing paving improvement bonds,
This act Is the one declared illegal,
which probably means that the prop
erty owners will be called upon to
pay their original assessments in
full.
