WEST SIDE FAIR
Agricultural Fair and Chau-

Same Days.
Editor Edgefeld Advertiser:

Editor Edgefeld Advertiser:
Why did you not come to our
Fair? 1t was great. However,
since you did not come I will tell
you and your readers something
about it. This year doubled our at.
fractions, for we turned it SO that
the Fair and the Radcliffe Cbau-
tauqua were held on the same days.
We had brand. new building on
lot adjoining school property and
this building was filled with farm
products. The school with Womens
Work and school exhibits. And
our school grounds was the big
Chautauqua tent. I hardly knew
which to tell of first, the crowd, the
Fair, the brides, or the Cbautanqua.
Parksville's two charming brides,
Mrs. Newt Edmunds (nee Miss
Lizzie Cooper and Mrs. Paul Adams
(nee Miss Warren) made their first
bows-And then-all the babies in
town were in evidence and of course
the babies mothers, too. All ages
were represented from the babe of
seven weeks to the old man or
woman of eighty. People from all
over the county, and all were happy.

TIE gathering in of the crops is
about finished now, but all the grain
has not been sowed, that the far
mers want to put in. Help is so
hard to get and when they get a
hand they daily away the most OF
the day, and get nothing done,
They are moving from place to
place already. Several horses and
mules have been bought, also COWS,
to be starved out during the win
ter, for the corn and hay crops
were so very short that their feed
will soon be all gone, and the money
too. They have great ideas OF
renting another year, and then
either kill out their stock riding 1t
to death on very little feed, or let
ting their Factors take it in next
fall on their debts,
Those who had money have about
spent it all, already. One of the
cotton men told me Saturday, that
he has no idea there will be much
cotton planted another year, as sc
much of the labor have already
been consc-ipted and will be
great deal more sent off, before
planting time. Besides the bol

HARDY'S HAPPENINGS.
Missionary Society Met With
Mrs. Reese. VIII Knit For
Soldiers. Moving For
New Year. !:

The snow in Atlanta Friday and
Friday night sent US some mighty
cold disagreeble weather, which we
do not appreciate at all. Keeps us
all drawn up, around a good FIRE.
Now, ! said us all, and I dosnot
get to the fire only to replenish it
every little while, for my work is
everywhere except to sit by q fire.
The Woman's. Missionary Socie-
ty met at Mrs. John Reese's on last
Thursday and had a splendid at
tendance. The subject of writing
to our neighborhood boys in
khaki was discussed, and several
of the ladies volunteered to cores
pond with them, so as to keep them
informed of the news from home,
We are also to knit something for
them. Mrs. T. ]. Briggs suggested
that we meet twice month, 50 as
to devote one afternoon to working
for the soldiers. After the program
was over, our hostess served AIDE
licious sweet course, and itabelng
late and the most of us from some
distance, we dispersed, hoping TO
meet the next evening at Mr.. H r..
Cooper's but the threatening clouds
and cold winds kept us home. We
have not heard how many attended,
but hope they had a good crowd,
and all enjoyed the music.

Southern States of over 22,000,000
barrels, it has been estimated that II
the practice became universal, the use
of % per cent of -four substitutes
grown in the South would save over
$4,000 barrels of flour. AS a matter
of fact, however, the saving would be
far greater than this because a much
larger proportion of -four substitutes
can be used in the preparation of bis
cults than in bread. In view of this
fact, the total saving might amount to

FLOUR SUBSTITUTES FOR THE
SOUTH

Washington, d. c., July - The
South has at its command variety
of foodstuffs which can be used to ex-
cellent advantage as part substitutes
for wheat -four in making bread and
biscuits. Housewives are urged by
specialists in the United States De-
partment of Agriculture to try some of
these in their bread making. Not only
will they be able to effect saving in
household expenses, but by reducing
in the South the consumption of wheat
-four brought in from other sections
Of the country, they will be helping
materially to leave the railroads freer
to transport necessities.
Among the wheat-four substitutes
recommended by specialists for the
South are:
l. Banana, cassava, dasheen, and
sweet potato.
2. Rice and kafir.
3. Soy beans and peanuts.
The substitutes in group should
be mixed with good white -four in the
proportion of l to 3. The resulting
bread is excellent in every way. Only
little less rich in protein than ordi-
nary breed, it is much richer in min
erals and other important constit-
uents. Dried bananas should be used
in making banana -four; the dasheen
and sweet potato may be boiled and
then mixed with the -four, or the dried
product may be used
Rice and kafir should be mixed with
flour in the same proportion as the
substances in group Ii to 8. Bread
made from kafir is somewhat darker
in color but richer in protein and ash
than white bread. Brown rice -four
, mixed with wheat Is also somewhat
darker In color than white bread but
II is as rich in protein and other food
constituents. The use of polished
rice does not add either to the appear
ance of the bread nor to its nutrtive
value
Soy beans and peanuts are extreme
ly rich in protein and fat. Flour pre-
pared from either of them, when mix
ed with white -four in the proportion
Of l to 8, is we'll adapted to make
nutritious bread. Bread made from
white -four alone contains less than 9
per cent protein and only about 0.3
per cent of salt-free ash, while bread
made from soy bean and wheat -four
contains about IA per cent protein and
per cent salt-free ash. Bread made
from peanut and wheat -four mixture
contains about IL per cent protein
and about 0.62 per cent salt-free ash.
Thus it is seen that even when only

COAL ENOUGH - OFFICIAL FIG.
URES FOR SIX MONTHS REAS.
SURFING TO COAL USERS.

Not only food but fuel is a vital
need of this country and of our allies
coal to run the ships and railroads,
to feed the iron furnaces and furnish
steam for all the manufacturing
plants, coal in greater quantities than
have ever before been mined in the
United States or in any part of the
world-and this need is being met in
truly American fashion by the opera
tors and owners of the mines and by
the diggers of coal. With these words,
Secretary Franklin X. Lane began his
statement regarding the coal institu-
ton as reported to him by the statis-
ticians of his Department.
The production of coal in the Unit
ed States last year, he continued, was
the greatest in the history of the coun-
try A new record, however, was set
for the first six months of this year,
fully 270,00O,0O tons of bituminous
coal being produced since January LIST,
thus exceeding the output of the first
six months of last year by about TO-
100000 tons. Even better news Is that
the limit has not yet been reached, for
as the railroads are able to work out
to better advantage the problem of
car supply and give to the mines
greater facilities for transporting
their product to market the supply Of
coal that reaches the consumer will
be In steadily increasing quantities. In
the early months of 1917, because of
the congestion of the railroads and the
difficulties Of transportation, the pro-
ductioh of bituminous coal fell behind
the high mark set in January and Feb
ruary, o year ago. As result Of the
patriotic and earnest endeavor OF the
railroad officials and the coal opera
tors and representatives OF mine
workers who have volunteered their
service to the Federal Government In
this emergency, production has been
spssded IN within The last few months
and the output Of soft coal which In

Prisoners exceeding ten thousand
and the capture of the village of Kon-
iuchy and strongly fortified positions
southwest of Brezezany are the first
fruits of the new offensive movement,
of the Russian forces in eastern Cali
cha. North of Koniuchy the Russians
have attacked and fresh battles are in
progress.
The Russian artillery, long inactive
from lack Of shells, played an impor-
tant part In the defeat Of the Austro-
Germans at Koniuchy. For two days
a rain Of iron was thrown into the
German positions and Berlin says Of
ficially that they were turned into a
crater field. The Russians not only
carried three lines Of German trenches
and Koniuchy. which was strongly

BUILDING Of BNRHNL &SQL SHELTER THE BIG ACHIEVEMENT Of THE YEAR
Reuiew of the Work Accomplished in the
Construction of Plant That Seems Des-
tined to Reuolutionize the Reduction of
Lead-Siluer Ores of the Coeur dAlene
District.
Don P. Campbell, Kellogg. Idaho)

The Bunker Hill & Sullivan smell
ter, which was started last June, is
rapidly taking on form and every
week sees marked changes in the out
ward appearance of the plant where
a large force of men is busily engag-
ed in the construction of the most
modern and complete silver-lead
smelling plant in the United States,
the institution to represent an outlay
of a million dollars.
The plant was designed by the firm
of Bradley. Bruff & LaBarthe and is
being built by the Bunker Hill &
Sullivan company, no contract having
been let for the work. The construc-
ton Is being done under the direction
of w. X. Mallette as superintendent.
1t is expected that the plant will be
completed by next June and that
means that it is over half done at
this time.
The smelter was designed primarily
to handle the output of the Bunker
Hill & Sullivan mine and mills, but
it will also do a certain amount of
custom work. The capacity will not
be great enough to handle great
amount of outside work, but the plant
has been so designed as to permit Of
it's enlargement as the demands may
be made.
> 1t is essentially a silverlead smell
ter, also fitted to handle certain
amount of silicious ores. 1t is not
equipped to handle zinc ores or cop
per ore. A comparatively small
amount of zinc would prove source
of trouble as the zinc has a tendency
to freeze up the furnaces, resulting In
the loss of time and costing thousands
of dollars in the operation of the
smelter What zinc finds its way in
to the furnaces must come out in the
Stag and be discarded in the waste
Enlargement Contemplated.
The capacity of the smelter as con-
templated is 900 tons of ore or con-
