Save Winter Oats For Seed.

Washington, June 18:-Farmers in
the South who have winter oats of
good quality are urged to save them
for seed rather than to feed them.
This crop was killed very general
ly over the South last winter, and
specialists of the United States De-
partment of Agriculture say the in
dications are that the seed supply
will be very short. Many counties in
the Southeastern States will have to
purchase all their seed from other
localities, and those favored sections
where partial or full crop was pro-
duced should save every available
bushel to meet this demand. Farm
ers are urged to feed corn or other
grain to work stock or to purchase
northern-grown spring oats for feed
ing in order to save the winter oats
for sowing.
Because of the scarcity Of winter
oats of good quality, those who have
them are quite sure to profit by saw.
ing them for seed rather than feed
ing them. Farmers who do not know
where they can sell seed oats should
communicate with their county
agent. the director of their Scate ex-
pertinent station, or R A Oakley,
chairman, Committee on Seed Stocks,
United States Department of Agri-
culture, Washington, D G. Present
indications are that there will be a
ready market for all good seed of
this crop this year.

ONE THOUSAND MEN SAIL FOR
 FRANCE

Washington, Sept. 26. - Clad in new uniforms, and equipped with sweaters and helmets furnish ed by the Navy League Comforts Committee, one thousand men from the Allentown Ambulance Camp have sailed for service at the frout in France.
 With their gray knitted helmets snuggly fitting over their heads and around their necks the thousand bright fellows who have gone-to al- lGviate suffering in the trenches looked like so many''water aviat- Ors" as they hung over the deck rails of the transatlantic steamer which was to carry them into ser vice abroad.
 The Comforts Committee of the Navy League, knowing that these men would be exposed night and da to the hardships of bleak, cold winter of Northern France, made three shipments of warm wOolen garments to the Commander of the Allentown Camp.
 Sweaters, helmets, mufflers, and wriSt.cts, made by the loving hands of mothers, sisters and sweethearts left behind, were included for the boys who volunteered to labor for the suffering.
 That the Ambulance Drivers ap- Ureciate the patriotic labor of the American women who unsefishly gavo time and money to provide them with necessary warm clothing is demonstrated by a letter which has been received by an official of the Navy League from Commander ]. R. Devereaux of the Ambulance Corps going to France.
 We have the boxes containing the sweater, helmets, etc, wrote Colonel DevereauX, and tho final distribution will take place today for the thousand men who are go- ing abroad with me.
 "In this connection I desire to thank you sincerely for your per sonal efforts in getting these to use ill time, and officially to thank the League for their generosity to- wards this Corps. l do not believe that a man who has received these is not appreciative of the gift"
