Potato Bugs Return
to Annoy Gardeners

The potato bug has come back"
Richmond gardeners have been
lulled into sence of false security
by nearly exterminating the striped
pests, says Civic Gardener Murphy
and the bugs have taken advantage of
them to thrive and multiply.
They aren't as bad as they were
earlier in the summer, but Murphy
advises gardeners to go over their
gardens again.

Unexpected Efficiency
in COnservatiO nOf Food
Fools Contractors

In some army and national guard
camps some contractors who under
took to dispose of garbage at price
based upon the amount they expect
ed to get are threatening to throw up
their contracts because the amount is
so small.
The Surgeon Generals office and
the Quartermaster's Department are
cooperating to secure the best nutri-
tion of soldiers with the least waste.
Officers Of the food divisions give
instructions in food values, balancing
of menus, and methods Of cooking and
serving. At one camp a conference
Of this sort was attended by $50 cooks
mess sergeants, and mess officers.
The allowance provided by the army
regulations is liberal and permits of
considerable savings. These accumu-
late to the credit Of the organizations

Buy a Home, the
Tenant Farmers
Golden Opportunity

The present high prices afford the
tenant farmer an opportunity that
may never come again-an opportun-
ity to buy and own farm and a
home. Cotton, tobacco and peanuts,
the South's principal money crops, are
bringing record prices, and tenant
farmers all over the South have more
money ahead than they have ever had
before. The use to which this sur
plus is put is going to determine many
a mans future-whether he is to re-
main a tenant farmer or become
home-owner, working his own land
and living in the shadow of his own
vine and fig tree.
Right now is the time of all times
to make the supreme effort. Money
is more plentiful than we have ever
seen it, and certainly we will never
see Southern farm lands any cheaper
than they now are. In fact, out of
very plentitude must come high-priced
farm lands, because Of the increased
demands for them. Already in the
North and West lands at $100, $500
and $500 an acre are practically out
of reach of the poor man. He has not
the cash to buy them, and if he buys
on credit it is almost impossible for
him to keep up his interest payments,
let alone paying the principal.
Just so surely as day follows night,
similar conditions are coming here in
the South. Already Southern farm
lands in some sections have gone up
to $75 and $1O0 an acre, and it is our
firm belief that the present generation
will see most Of our lands at t.
figures and even higher. This being
the case, now is the tenants golden
opportunity to become a home-owner.
And the privilege of feeling ones owr
soil under foot is worth the effort
worth all the saving and privation
that may be necessary; for, as old
DR.. Knapp used to say, "the home
owning American farmer is king in
his own right"
Let us not let the golden opportun-
ity pass.-The Progressive Farmer.

Care of the Bees
During the Winter

Clemson College, S. c., Dec. o.
In the south the wintering of bees
Is not as serious as in the north. New
theless the southern beekeepers should
bear several important matters in
mind relative to the proper care of
this little faithful money maker during
the winter. Double walled hives afe
used in the north but it is generally
conceded that single walls can be used
in the south.
The bee hives should be kept in
an enclosure, preferably a hedge of
trees or shrubs, especially Ammor
River of California Privet hedge.
One of the greatest dangers to the
bees during the winter is starvation.
This danger should give the beekeep-
er most particular concern. A col
ony Should have twenty-five pounds
of sealed honey when it goes into the
winter and it is desirable that this
should be provided month or so be-
fore the winter comes on. In warmer
temperature the bees are more ac-
tive in the hives and therefore con-
sumo more than the bees in cold eli
mates. For this reason it is partic-
ularly important with the southern
bee keepers to see that the bees are
sufficiently supplied. Sufficient stores
may be supplied by placing sealed
combs in the hive frames or feeding
the bees with granulated sugar syrup.
Robbing by other insects and rod
ents is another danger. The beekeep-
er should discover any of these dang
ers and eliminate them as quickly as
possible. Where the bees have been
robbed they should be supplied with
sufficient amounts Of honey and gran
ulated sugar syrup.
The size of the entrance should al
so be lessened so as to reduce the en-
trance Of cold air and lessen the dang
er Of robbing.

Consider the Lilies of the Field, How
They Grow"

The life of the lily is but few
weeks or months. The life of man is
"three score years and ten." But tc
live ones life in it's fullness, women
like the lily, must be nourished by
those same rival elements which ma
ture provides for nourishing every liv-
ing thing; and these include the val
liable phosphate so often lacking ir
the usual food we eat today. Argo-
Phosphate is rich in these wonderful
elements. 1t contains them in concen-
trated tablet form which is easy to
take and quickly assimulated and alb
sorbed into the system, and from youth
to old age, builds and rebuids body and
brain in beautiful harmony with Ma
ture's perfect plan. "That's why
Argo-P Phosphate makes good solid flesh
and muscles.
SPECIAL NOTICE.: Argo-Phos-
phate contains the Natural phosphates
which thousands of physicians are
prescribing daily to build up thin, pale
colorless women to give them rosy
cheeks, red lips, and beautiful COM
plexion. Many cases have been re-
ported where women have increased
their weight from Is to 25 pound
with few weeks treatment, and any
woman who desires a we'll rounded
and developed form, should secure
from her druggist, this new drug
which is inexpensive and is dispensed
by any reliable druggist with or with

druggist will not supply you, send
$1.00 to the Argo Laboratories, 10
Forsyth St., ATLANTA, Ga, and they
will send you a two weeks treatment

Franklin's Fish Story.

Frauk1lu . FISH OGOFy.
The quaint wit of Benjamin
Franklin is we'll known, but the
sayings and doings of this pion-
eer Of the Printing Arts is alway S
interesting to the Craft.
In 1765, when he was colonial
agent in London, some one. in
exploiting his knowledge of the
New World had gravely asserted
that there were cod and whale
fisheries in the Great Lakes.
This appealed to Franklin as a
great joke and was responsible
for the following article:
Ignorant people may object
that the upper lakes are fresh and
that cod and whale are sclt water
fish; but let them know, sir, that
cod, like other fish, when attack
ed by their enemies, fly into any
water where they can be safest;
that whales, when they have a
mind to eat cod, pursue them
wherever they fly, and that the
grand leap of the whale in the
chase up the falls of Niagara is
esteemed by all who have seen il
as one of the finest spectacles. in
Nature.

Although the failure to receive
letters from men in the service
is not pleasant to relatives anC
friends at home, the adage nc
news is good news" never was
more true than at present. The
report of every casualty at home
or abroad is Immediately wired
or cabled to officials at Washing
ton, being relayed from there
without loss of time to the emer-
gency address of the soldier or
sailor affected. 1t is also at once
released for publication in the
newspapers. No news of casual
ties has or will be held up.
NJ man in the service has re-
ceived orders not to write home ;
he has been urged, on the con-
trary, to keep in touch with rela-
atives and friends. The forces
in France have at their disposal
post cards giving general infor-
nation in regard to health and
the receipt of letters and parcels,
