will begin, entrainment for cantonment
September s; the next 80 per cent,
September 16 and another 80 per cent
September 80. The remaining 10 per
cent will be mobilized as soon after
that date as possible.
The plan to assemble the new forces
in three increments distributes the
task Of furnishing supplies and equip
ment through September.
The order issued today means that
about 100000 men will reach each sof
the sixteen cantonmenrs soon after
September S. They will first be ex-
amined physically by army doctors
and finally accepted Or rejected. This
will take some time and the men will
have to be furnished with temporary
quarters and rationed while awaiting
examination.
If the full quota was assembled at
one time, great confusion would re-
suit.

Winter Care of Colts.

Colts can be housed satisfactorily

be dry, sanitary and provide fairly
warm protection from winds. Sew
eral foals may run together If the
weaker ones are not driven away
from their feed by the stronger The
quarters should be kept clean and
we'll bedded and occasionally should
be disinfected. Lice are to be sus-
pected when the animals get to rub
bing and loose patches Of hair ap-
pear. Thorough washing with the
proper solutions of coal-tar disinfect-
ants will kill lice 1t costs money to
feed lice, consequently efforts should
be made to keep them down. The
foals should be out in the open every
day that is not stormy; 1t is harm
full, however, for them to remain out
in a cold rain. The foal should be
taught to lead and to stand tied dur
ing the first winter.

Eumigation Of stored Grains.

Stored grains of all kinds are at
tackled by numerous insect pests. and
just at this time when it is impera-
tive to conserve to the utmost the re-
serve food supply of the nation, it is
especially important to prevent the
work of these pests.
Fumigaticn with carbon bisulphide
is the most important treatment OF
grains, according to F. H. Lathrop,
assistant entomologist. To be effect
i've, the bin must be as nearly air
tight as it is possible. The carbon BIZ
sulphide may be obtained in liquid
form from the local druggist, and
should be applied at the rate of four
pounds to every 1000 cubic feet of
space to be fumigated. The material
should be placed in shallow pans on
top of the grain, and the bin immedi-
ately closed. The liquid will evapo-
rate, forming gas heavier than air,
which will pass downward through
the grain. The bin should be allowed
to remain closed for at least twenty
four hours. The effect of the gas
varies with the temperature. and at
a temperature of 60 degrees or less
the treatment is ineffective and
should not be attempted.
Carbon bisulphide is highly inflam-
mable and lights and flame OF all
kinds must be kept away from 1t.
This treatment is effective for
dried fruits as we'll as for seed of all
kinds. 1t does not affect the germi-
nation of seeds or the food value OF
the products fumigated.

Remedy for Worms.

Give the chickens no food or water
for "a hours before treating; then
feed them half the usual amount OF
ground feed in which has been mixed
finely chopped tobacco stems soaked
for two hours in all the water they
will absorb. One pound Of tobacco
stems (weighed before soaking) is
sufficient for 100 birds. Two hours
after the chickens have eaten the
medicated mash, give them or
fourth of the usual ration of grca--d
feed mixed with water in which Ep-
som salt has been dissolved, using IL
ounces Of Epson salt for 100 birds.
To reduce the chances of further
infestation all manure and loose dirt
should be removed from the chicken
yard and the pens and roosts thor
oughly scalded and cleansed with hot
water.

Last Week Men May
Volunteer in Army

Portland, Ore, Dec. 10.-Up to
December Is, but no later, any man
registered under the draft who is not
already in the military service or
needed to fill vacancy in the first
draft quota may enlist as a volunteer
in the army, navy or marine corps.
After December Is no man of draft
age will be accepted as a volunteer
in any branch of the army service.
While voluntary enlistments in the
navy and marine corps will still be
permitted after December Is, they
can be made only if a man Is able to
produce certificate from his local
board showing him to be SO far down
the list that he would not be taken
on the current draft.
But up to December 10 any regis
trant may volunteer. A special rul-
ing to this effect has just been made
by the provost marshal general. This
ruling includes even men who have
been called up for physical examina-
tion by their local boards, but have
not yet been inducted into the army.
In order to keep the states quota
filled on the first draft, good many
more men we're called up for physical
examination than we're actually re
quired. Now they can volunteer VI
to December Is.
Each such man must obtain from
his local board certificate that ht
will not be needed to fill any deferred
percentage Of the first draft quots
of that board. This certificate mus
be presented to the recruiting officer
OF course men of draft age whit
have not yet been called up for phys
ical examination by their boards will
not need such a certificate. They car

AS the Kaiser
Sees Himself

In a public speech March 22, 1905,
Emperor William, the German kaiser,
said:
God would never have taken such
great pains with our German Father
land and its people If He had not been
preparing us for something still
greater. We are the salt Of the
earth"
In 1914 he issued a proclamation
to the army of the east in which he
said:
Remember that you are the chos-
en- people! The Spirit of the Lord
has descended upon me because I am
the emperor of the Germans! I am
the instrument of the Almighty. I
am His sword, His agent Woe and
death to all those who shall oppose
my will! Woe and death to those
who do not believe in my mission!
Woe and death to the towards! Let
them perish, all the enemies Of the
German people! God demands their
destruction-God who, by my mouth,
bids you to do His Wilt"
What the world thinks:
He is the most brutal, bloodthirsty
and destructive monarch that ever
lived, and the curse Of his people.
The most hated man alive, and he
and his followers must be crushed to
save the world from destruction.

jim SMITHS WILL IS
FOUND IN OLD PAPERS

ATHENS, Ca. Nov. 14.-The will
OF the late James NJ Smith, million
aire farmer of Oglethorpe county, has
been found-in a bunch of discarded
Iapers in the old house-and yester-
day this was probated in the court
Of ordinary at Lexington.
Unless another will made later shall
turn up-or, indeed, if it does not turn
up--this discovery, after nearly two
ears, will cause radical changes in the
disposition of the vast estate, much of
which has been administered upon and
sold last monahs The will was made
on ecember 4, 1S85-thirty-two years
ago Col. Jim Smith died in Decem-
Der, two years ago.
d. w. Meadow, for many years judge
of the circuit, is the sole surviving eX-
ecutor named, and he was one of the
administrators first named after Col.
Smiths death. The late Judge Alex
nnder Erwin, another judge, father of
one Of the present administrators, was
another executor. Two sons of half
brother. Jim Smith, Robert and John
Z Smith, were the other executors.
The two nephews, Robert A. Smith
and John A. Smith, are given the great
er part of the land and estates; after
talf hundred relatives, half-brothers,
sister, nephews, many tenants, SER
wants and personal friends are remem-
bered in amounts of 500 to several
thousad, the will directs that the death
of his two nephews, the property shall
90 to their children.
The will was witnessed by Henry
Heard. ]. H. Matthews, Sr., and James
D. Power.
Since the two principal benefciarles
of the will are both dead, dying within
a few weeks Of each other in 1901, and
John II. Smith left no children, the
bulk of the big estate goes to the one
surviving daughter OF Robert Smith, it
is said. She is now Mrs. Shehaa, II
Crawford.
