ARMIES MUST HAVE TOBACCO
Soldiers in Trenches Get Vast Amount
of Comfort From the Fragrant
Weed-A Necessity Ranking With
Food.

If you have ever served in the
Army or Navy, and especially if you
have ever soldiered in the trenches,
you will agree that tobacco is only
secondary as a necessity in war time
to ammunition. Commenting on this
phase of war necessities, contem-
porary says that next to ammunition
the greatest necessity in time of war
is tobacco. 1t is not only the greatest
necessity, but the greatest comfort.
You might imagine that food or
shelter is more important to fellow
out there than his cigarette or pipe,
but take it from one who has been
there and knows, tobacco is the most
important of all. A soldier can fight
without food and without shelter, if
he has to, but his nerves will go to
pieces if he can't get chance to
smoke.
Maybe you remember the authenti-
Gated story of the young English lieu
tenant who held a first-line trench
angle single-handed without food or
sleep for forty eight hours against a
company of Germans. He used the
old type of hand grenaies with fuses.
He smoked cigarettes and lighted the
fuses from the cigarettes. The to-
bacco kept him going. He couldn't
have done it on concentrated beef ex-
tract or biscuits.
Maybe you have seen real motion
picture films of troops going into bat
tie. If so, you have remarked the
cigarettes and pipes and stogies
stuck between the grim determined
lips.
If you have happened ever to be
at field hospital when the wounded
came in on stretchers from the front
the poor fellows who have given

BRUNSWICK TOBACCO
Lawrenceville Getting Ready to
Handle Biggest Crop Ever Grown.

Lawrenceville, Va.,-The outlook
for greater business in loose-leaf to-
bacco in the Lawrenceville market is
very bright. The crops of both
bright and dark, especially the
brights, will be- larger In Brunswick
County this year than ever before.
1t became evident very early that
Lawrenceville will require more ware
house facilities and the Business
Mems Association took the matter up
some time ago.
At special meeting of the Asso-
citation held last week, arrangements
were made for the building of an
other brick warehouse Of the same
dimensions and the same facilities
as the one that has been so success
fully operated here for the past four
years. Work will be commenced on
the building the latter part of this
month and the contract calls for it's
completion in ample time for the fall
business.
In addition, another warehouse for
the handling of dark shipping tobac-
cos will be opened the coming season.
A building that has already been
operated as a warehouse for both dark
and bright will be utilized. In addi-
tion to it's warehouses, Lawrenceville
has two other air-drying prize houses
and three tobacco packing houses, and
others of like character will probably
be built very soon.
With these increased warehouses
and packing facilities and with Bruins
wick and adjoining counties enlarging
their tobacco crops this year, it is be-
lieved that the Lawrenceville market
will sell during the coming season
from seven to ten million pounds of
the weed.-Times-D Dispatch.

Few people fully realize the Won
derful development which has taken
place in the Missouri Slope country
during the past few years. Less than
ten years ago range cattle and horses
were grazing over the land shown in
the above picture, which shows the
farm home and the buildings on the
w. R. Everett farm, located in E-6
township in the northeastern part of
Slope county, in the fertile valley Of
the Cannon Ball river. =,
In the spring of 1911. w. R. Everett
of Dickinson bought a half section Of
raw prairie land and commenced the
same year to cultivate the rich soil.
improvements have been added to the
place from year to year until it IS
now among the best improved farms
in the county. These improvements,
additional buildings, etc., were made
gradually under the management Of
George Gerlich, who has been in
charge of this farm while holding
down a homestead adjoining it.

ing.
Slope county shows a remarkable
development and the pioneers of this
new country deserve much credit for
the thrift displayed. Even with the
big start it must be realized that
North Dakota is just at the beginning
and it will only be a short time, with
the spirit Of cooperation shown by
it's farmers, until they will live in
settled communities that will compare
f%avorably with eastern states.
Mr.. Everett has always had great
faith in the future of this country.
He has been actively working and
writing, urging that legislation be
passed making marketing conditions
better for the farmers. In writing
the News this week he says, "I be-
lieve that all the farming communi-
ties should form cooperative clubs,
establish social centers and get to-
gether on everything that concerns
the welfare of the farmers and I pre-
dict that in the next five or ten years
that the western North Dakota farm
ers will have their land on a basis
Of from $50 to $75 per acre."-Slope

head of horses and additional room for
about rs head of small stock, granar-
les, hog houses, chicken houses, etc.,
now stand on a corner of what was
a piece of wild prairie land about a
half dozen years ago. Such is the
progress in this new country, whose
soil yields enormous profits under the
progressive methods employed by it's
farmers.
On the Everett farm an excellent
water system is in use, called the
Milwaukee Air Power System where
by they are enabled to use fresh
water from three different wells for
the house and the stock in the barns,
all pumped from one central plant.
The plant at the same time gener-
ates electricity for lighting all of the
buildings.
The Everett farm at the present
time handles n hundred head of cat
tie, thirty head of horses and a good
sized bunch of porkers. 1t will be the
policy of the manager in the future
to raise ample feed to increase the
livestock to the maximum. The grain
raising will only be on the basis to
balance the farm up for mixed farm

Copenhagen. July 30-Philip Schiede-
mann. socialist member of the reich
stag, gave yesterday the views of the
socialists on their participation in the
government. Herr ~Schiedemann said
that If a really parliamentary govern
ment was formed with a program which
the socialists could approve, they must
participate n share responsibility. II.
however, members OF the %reichstag were
to become subordinates to under secre-
taries and chancellories they would not
accept the invitation to participate.
Russia should serve as a warning to
the German socialists not to follow dan
gerous advice from abroad to work for
a revolution amidst war.
Herr Schiedemann also said that to
attain peace all sides must hold fast to
the program of the council Of work
mems and soldiers delegates and the
German reichstag, u~ninfluenced by q
momentary military situation. He
warned against a new attempt to offer
Russia a separate peace and declared
that announcement should be made that
Germany has no desire for conquest on
any side and hat Belgian independence
would be guaranteed, as well as the in
tegrity Of France.

Against Expecting Record

was issued by Lou D. Sweet b Colo
RADIO potato expert Communicated by
he food administration.
Municipal storages in cities and
towns are urged by MI. Sweet to en-.
able producers to sell at a figure just
to themselves and to enable the buyer,
particularly the poor buyer, to buy as
he needs without paying tribute to
spectators or middlemen Who control
. certain amount OF storage space" !
Careful grading and precautions to
prevent rot are urged and a reform in
selling methods advocated by which
buyers can purchase potatoes by the
pound instead of by measure.
TT is highly possible" said Mr.. Sweet,
that the food administration viii at
tempt to get around the problem OF
transportation for the crop by calling
into use the established European prac-
tice of drying potatoes. Drying reduces
the potato to one-fifth it's original bulk,
causes it to los none of it's food value,
saves storage space reduces the tax on
transportation facilities and keeps well
nigh indefinitely in common storage"
