Explosion startles
 Bridgeport Residents

An explosion following attempts to cool hot ~slag, in the yard of the American Tube & Stamping mill in Stratford avenue, shook residences for a mile around, ~and startled the city at 12 o'clock yesterday. Windows in the factory were shattered, dishes were hurled from tables and pictures from walls.
 No one was injured by the accident, workmen in the plant escaping harm. The cause of the shock is supposed to have been due to the fact that when employees tried to cool, too quickly a three-ton slab of slag, it created a gas which was exploded.

RAISE MORE WHEAT AND MEAT.
Urgent Appeal to Farmers Sent Out by
Director w. w. Long.


The following letter has been is
sued to the rural schools throughout
the State asking the farmersto pledge
themselves to help make up this
shortage of wheat and meat:
Il am sending you a card asking
for your cooperation with your
government in a service that is
equally necessary with that Of serv-
ing in the trenches and that is to as
sist in increasing the food supply Of
the world in the growing of at least
two acres of wheat to the plow and
the raising Of at least one additional
litter of pigs more than you have
been doing in the past few years: If
you expect to have your usual quan-
tity of flour bread for the use Of
your family and plantation. you
must grow it. The government will
not permit you to draw upon the
surplus supply of the West. This
is going to feed our army and those
of our allies.
There are fewer hogs in South
Carolina than there was in 1915.
The meat supply Of the United
States and the world is less than at
any time in the history of the world.
80 far as information is recorded.
A 2O0-pound hog will bring you as
much as you used to receive for a
5OO-pound bale of cotton. Remem-
Der that we are asking you to only
increase your pork by raising the
pigs from one additional sow. II
all farmers comply with this modest
request the meat situation will be
solved and the requirements Of our
government met. Could we ask you
to do less?
These cards do not need to be
stamped. Fill them out, sign them
and mail and they will be delivered
without postage.

dition. Has Spent $4,000 For Other
Remedies Without Receiving
the Least Benefit.


If everybody knew about the
wonderful good Vitona has done me,
you wouldn't be able to make it
fast enough to supply the demand"
said Mr. F S Leak, a well-known
hostler engineer, who lives at 666 S
Pryor street, Atlanta, Ga, in telling
the Vitona representative of the re-
suits he had obtained from the pre-
paration.
Il gained thirty-ive pounds by
taking Vitona," he continued, and
I feel like brand new man.
Il suffered with catarrh of the
head and stomach for years, and
got into a terrible rundown con-
dition. My head ached terrible
and my nose was so stopped up l
could hardly breathe. | was also
bothered with indigestion and had
to be very careful about what / ate.
l couldn't sleep good and got up
every morning feeling about half
dead and hardly able to make it to
my work. had such terrible pains
in my back at times I could hardly
get on and off my engine. | SEEM
ed to be losing weight and strength
every day.
Il heard of Vitona and the good
it was doing people with troubles
like mine and decided to give it a
trial; and 1t is just wonderful how
it has helped me. 1t got right in
after every one of my troubles, and
now l am sound and well in every
way. l eat just anything l want,
everything agrees with me, and |
have gained thirty-fve pounds. |
now sleep fine every night and get
up in the morning feeling fresh and
ready for big days work. I'm
not nervous any longer, my head
and nose are not stopped up, l
don't have headaches; in fact, | am
in tip-top shape in every way. Vi
tona put me in good condition again
after I had paid out over 5000 for
other medicines that didn't help me
one bit. l consider Vitona in a
class by itself.

Asks Release from Contracts.

1t may be interesting to many OF
our readers who own victrolas and
grafanolas, and heard the sweet
strains of his music, to know that
Fritz Kreisler, famous Austrian
violinist has asked to be released from
existing contracts becase of the at
tacks made upon him in different
parts of the country. Bitter at
tacks have been made upon me as
an Austrian and because at the out
break of the war l fought as an Of
fcer in the Austrian army on the
Russian 'front.'" said a statement is
sued by MIR Kreisler. i have been
criticised for fulfilling engagements
under contracts made long ago. |,
therefore, am asking all concerned
to release me from my obligations
under existing conditions. My prom
ise will be kept to play without com.
pensation for those charities to
which have already pledged my
support. u shall always remain
deeply sensible of my debt of graft
tude to this country for past kind
nesses and appreciation of my art"
By his action, it was said, Kreisler
will forego engagements which
would have brought him $85, 900.
