ton in his lonely hut, by the chill
dren of Lish Pipkins last Thursday,
April 10. 1917 and he passed out a

End him in that unconscious state.
He had gotten his toes singed from
the fire, and could never be aroused
to explain his plight He was
nearly hundred ii not 100 years
old, his exact age not being known,
aud he claiming about ninety but old
citizens Of the community compute
him older than the four score aud

much with the weight of many wears

Bay Springs News.
Now the school has closed, and
prents see to 1t that every boy and
girl has something to employ their
time, that is worth while. Don let
them be on the streets except when
necessary. If they hang around
town the devil will get most of their
time, and they will bring disgrace on
on themselves and sorrow to you.
Old satan is always hanging around
the corners and at the depots to win
your boy or girl, he offers many
propositions that look good, but
when accepted lead to ruin OF body
and soul. The parents who let
their boys in knee pants hang around
town are to be pltied, for the boys,
as we'll as the parents need guar

ed here by stave. limit the possible
production of crop?
II, for instance. there Ii only enough
nitrogen In the soil to produce 20
bushels of corn or IT'S pounds OF cot
ton per acre, while there is enough
plant food elements OF other kinds to
produce enormously more, how then
can greater yields be obtained than the
nitrogen will permit?
The problem of plant feeding Is,
therefore, no simple one 1t has en-
gagged long and most careful investi-
cations OF scientists. who have delved
deep into the mysteries Of how plants
feed and what they feed upon. On the
basis OF the most exact knowledge thus
obtained. modern fertilizers have been
manufactured Soil deficiencies, or
limiting factors" modern fertilizers
are designed to remove, and to call
into fullest action the natural re-
sources of the soil.
Since there Is limiting factor In
all soils. 1t is worth while for each
farmer to undertake to remove that
limitation. Intelligent use of fertilix.
ers will accomplish 1t, II food elements
be this limiting factor. In no other
way can 1t be done than by the help
or man. He must bring to the plant
the food II needs and cannot find when
this Is the factor limiting production.
The plant. OF course, must be given
the best OF surroundings. 1t must not
only have plenty Of plant food. but
the soil must be properly drained of
excess water. 1t must be well supplied
with lime, and organic matter: its
moisture must be conserved, and
weeds killed through proper cultural
methods. These things man can pro-
vide. Therefore. II man is not the
limiting factor and he looks after
the plant food requirements. the great
est possible yields will occur.

ash. Every soil may be said to have a
limiting factor OF production. This
may be shortage OF some plant food
element IL SO. this should be sup
pied through fertilization II the larg-
est possible yields are to be obtained.
NO matter how much Of other plant
1000 soil may contain, II there is .
shortage OF nitrogen, for example, then
nitrCIen will fix the limits of produc-
ton Likewise with phosphoric acid or
other elements.
Plants differ from animals in taking
FOOD. in that plants will take foods
only when the elements composing
them are in soluble form, that is, when
they are dissolved In water. When
one element is deficient, the plant
ceases growing.

MORATORIUM. Nov that Conscrip-

congress should go the other step in
following European war methods and
declare MORATORIUM as etfecting all
who answer to the call of the colors y
either by choice or compulsion for
where so great body of men are to
be taken from our population and
carried away into war, they should
have the strong arm OF the govern
ment to protect their affairs back at

EDITORIAL

CONSUMPTION, that is Selective
CONSUMPTION, has been practically
jammed through Congress. While
the Herald has been opposed to 1T,
we have believed and said in person
al conversation. that the administra-
ton knows more than we all do a
bout the needs of the military stu
alton. and we frankly admit that
there is something in the argument
which is agging them on to adopt
such coercive measure involving so
many OF our citizens, summed up in
the expression Fight fire with fire.
Germany is up to the last word in
selective CONSUMPTION in conversihg
and distributing the forces of her
nation to the greatest effective needs
in pushing their worldwide war and
our military chieftains have con-
WINGED president Wilson that the
way to come back at them and for
ever end such a menace to civilian
tion is to summons great citizens
army upon the same plan, and in that
way tC quickly and the better and
with less loss of blood and treasure
do our part in the great war so de.
vasta.ing earth.

PASTURE VELVET BEANS.

Inquiry-"What is the most profit.
able use Of the Velvet Beam"
Plant the velvet bean in the corn
and get double crop. They do well
together. Plant an early variety and
fertilize for q good growth.
The most economical use Of velvet
beans Is to let cattle feed on them
in the field and then to turn under
the vegetable matter remaining II
there are not sufficient cattle on the
place, get them and feed them. Why
go to the expense OF gathering beans,
grinding and shipping the meal of to
some one else to feed and get the
benefits 81. N. HARPER

Well, as a matter of war eXpedlen-
cy, its best now to drop opposition
to conscription and let the military
heads have their swing. The conse-
quences that we feared were more
than the immediate intruslons upon
personal liberty The latter can be
swallowed as "a matter of patriotism
and submitted to in order to meet
the demand OF the times, but what
we have feared and still fear is what
will follow in the wake of such a
brushing aside Of all resistance to
military domineerlng of our great
democratic country. Rome and
other olden time nations suffered
from military dominaucy, but our
country can escape from it after This
war is settled by the people rising
up IN their might and if necessary
land we hope it will never be neces-
sary) resorting TO revolution to
wrest away such an assumption of
authority and wholesale throt-
ting of public sentiment Maybe
by then the last surviving monarch
les of earth will have gone the way
of Russian autocracy and Referen-
DUN war clauses have been written
into the constitutions of all coun
tries OF consequence upon the planet
placing then all on an equal basis,
and allowing their soldiers and citi-
zens to have a voice and real voice
in the declaration of war except wars
OF invasion.

FOOD PREPAREDNESS PROGRAM

There are in the eleven cotton
states 6, 500, 600 horses and mules.
If each of these were fed 2 lbs. of
cotton seed meal per day, it would
release 4 lbs. Of corn each per day
and 200 days of such feeding to all
horses aud mules would release l00
900, 600 bushels Of corn for human
food-and the mules would be bene-
flied by the change.
lbs. of corn at 81 80 per bu. costs
ii cents.
lbs. of cottonseed meal at $40 per
ton costs cents.
The feeder would thus save Z cents
per day or $14 on each head of
stock.
We suggest such feeding now and
the planting OF soy or velvet beans
or peas in all corn as an economic
and patriotic duty.

Newton Record.
1t seems to be the mission of some
of the papers to discredit Senator
Vardaman 10 the eyes of the people
in every possible, while on the other
hand Others are trying to do the
same thing as regards Senator Will
liams. S1ch tactics smacks of poll
tics, and it seems that IN this crisis
politics should be laid aside. AS the
Record sees it, each one should be
given credit for acts aud deeds of
merit, without seeking to impugn
their motives. None of US may "a
gree with them in every thing they
do, but they are doubtless honest
and conscientious in what they are
doing, and it is not becoming, to say
the least of it for the press to be rak-
ing and scraping up and publishing
every thing they can find that sounds
detrimental to them. 1t is all right
to disagree with them, but to de-
nounce and malign and reproduce
such things from other papers is not
creditable at all on the part of those
who are so doing.
