FREIGHTEB ESCAPES U-BoAT.
Speed of Japanese Vessel Saves II
In Exciting Chase.

A PACIFIC PORT. Oct. IA
large Japanese freighter arrived
here today after an 0=eiting chase by
German submarine in the Atlantic
on August 16 last. about 600 miles off
the European coast.
The captain said the U.-boat's first
shell fell only about so yards short
of his vessel. He Immediately signal
ed full steam and was soon walking
away at a 16-knot clip. Apparently
the Germans thought they had to do
with slow target, for the freighter
drew out of range before a second
she'll came. Then for Is minutes the
submarine sent in shells numbering
220. but all failed to reach. When the
Germans realized they were OUTRAGED
they submerged.
The freighter. the captain said,
is of a new type. with a potential
speed that bellies its appearance of a
slow ocean tramp.

After days of most intensive IlgnI--

times changed hands and men fell IN
hundreds, in attacks and counter at

constructed to defend Carbria from

GARDENING AND CANNING

Home Garden Pays Big Dividend
Make Every Inch of Ground Count
Can All Surplus Vegetables and
Save for Winter-Prize for Best
Garden
The following report of a meeting
reid at East Lumberton Monday
night OF last week was put in type
for Thursdays paper but was crowd
ca out and had to be held over.-Ed-l
itor.)
There was much interest in the
meeting held in the auditorium at
the Lumberton and Dresden cotton
mill village Monday night for the
purpose of discussing with the peo-
pie the Importance of raising all the
ftodstuff possible in their gardens.
A crowd that practically filled the
large auditorium attended the meet
ing and the East Lumberton band
furnished music for the occasion.
M. T. B. Parker, head Of the farm
ers' institute work of this State was
the first to speak. He was introduce
ed by Mr.. H. B. Jennings, general
manager of the mills.
Mr.. Parker told the folks the ne
cessity of gardening in order to help
eliminate the high cost of living.
He declared that it is the people who
are working in the mills and other
public work that are being hit hard
est by the h. c. l. AS to what to
pant, the speaker told his hearers to
plant what best suited their taste. He
explained the fact that there is moth
ing about the home that pays larger
dividend than garden. He urged the
folks to make their ground count, to
plant something between rows and
when one crop was off to have some
thing else coming on.
After Mr.. Parker was through, Mrs.
F. S. Eubanks Of Durham, an expert
in canning, gave some valuable sug-
gestions as to canning vegetables and
fruit. She had a small canning outfit
along and told how to use it. The
outfit, she said, cost only $3.50. Mrs.
Eubanks said, however, that those
who could not buy Gamer could use
wash pots and other things which are
found in evry home for canning their
surplus vegetables. She urged the
ladies not to allow anything to go to
waste, but to save it all for next win.
ter, when canned goods will most
likely be much higher than they nov
are.
Mr.. E. L. Hamilton, manager of the
company store, said he was going tt
buy a canning outfit and can OF
shares, or any way to suit the people
who live about the mills.
Mr.. Jennings agreed to offer :
prize for the family growing the bes
garden, and judging from the clos
attention given to what was said, NJ
doubt the people who operate the mill
will all have good gardens this sum
mer.
