BRITISH ARE WATCHING
U. S. FOOD LEGISLATION
Nation Cannot Now Tell Where It
Stands, Says Head of Board
of Agriculture.

LONDON, June 1.-THE progress of
food legislation in tina American Con-
gress Is being watche here with the
keenest anxiety. In a statement TO the
Association Press R. E. Prothero. presi-
dent of the board of agriculture and .
worldwide authority on food produc-
ton, said that until decision was
reached in Congress Great Britain could
not know exactly where she stood re-
garding her own food situation.
food for man and beast is not the
least urgent need of the allies" said
Mr. Prothero. The United Kingdom,
If II exercises careful economy, has no
reason to fear starvation. and our PEG.
pie do not shrink from necessary 'pri-
vations. But fodder may run short for
our live stock, especially for those dairy
herds on which 80 largely depends the
child life of our great towns.
Policy Hangs in Balance.
I'VE therefore follow with anxiety
the discussion of measures designed to
control the food situa tion in your coun-
try Until decision Is reached we
cannot know exactly where we stand.
Precision. is at present impossiDie IN
our calculations. and our policy to-
ward our live stock to some extent
hangs in the balance.
whatever may be the result OF the
deliberations in the United states. we
hope for speedy relief from uncer-
tatnty. In the o1iStlIS CHI CuHfs edHSSe
we are compelled to leave large mar
gins for safety. We cannot make. for
example, accurate estimates unless We
know the quantities of maize or oats
which America can allocate to our
needs On this and kindred subjects
detailed facts can alone enable us to
make adequate provision. Every adj
ditional factor which makes for un.
certainty aggravates situation al.
ready complicated by SUCH uncertain.

LAST CALL Y M c A

Those who have been working on
the Y. M. c. A. campaign are more
than anxious to make creditable col
lection in Cordele and Crisp county
and they have been busy in a busy
time trying to give everybody an op
portunity to make a fair and reasona
BILE contribution. But while the fund
so far is creditable, it is not what we
should have given and it is not what
has been assessed against the city
and county. Those who have charge
want to do better by this cause simply
because it is one of the most worthy
yet coming our way as an aid to the
war.
Cordele has not given to this cause
as it would have given under ordinary
circumstances. 1t is true that We
have had many things to hold our at
tention of late but we must not grow
weary now and try to convince our
selves that we have done our part.
Our part is all that we can do an(
we have not done that. The mos
interesting part of it all, too. is thu
fact that we seldom know when W,
have done our best. The state o
Georgia is behind with its assessment
and Cordele is one of the towns tina
have not done all that has been ex

Feeding pias.

Stockmen are often troubled with
pigs that refuse to be weaned but
suck their milk out of the trough.
This will cause them to start slowly
feeders. The best method of breaking
such pigs of the habit is to use SIKH
milk or buttermilk mixed with shorts
and a small amount of corn meal If
you will put some dry Jumps of the
feed in the milk, the pig will soon
learn to chew and eat properly.-The
Southern Ruralist.

pected Of them.

If you have not given anything to
this cause you ought to see some mem
Der of the committee and make the
fund larger by just as much as you
can reasonably spare to such fine
and worthy cause. Please do not put
it off if you intend doing anything 1t
will be too late tomorrow. We are
going to pass to something else as the
new day approaches. There are 9TH
er things that win need our attention
just as badly when the morrow APP
proaches and this cause must be put
behind with the satisfaction that we
did our duty by it. We could be made
happy with nothing short of this.

OFFICIAL ORGAN CRISP COUNTY
RUSSIAN PEACE.

The people Of this country are in
their hardest study and greatest con
Germ over what is going to become OF
Russia while it is in the hands of the
people who are now pretending to be
guiding the destinies of that unfor.
tunate country. Recent developments
have given the people of this country
cause for deep concern for it is almost
certain that America has more finan-
ciai interest III the government that
has been set aside by the bolshevilIi
than any other nation at the present
time. The United States Should be
more interested at this time for il
will mean much in men and finance
to this country for developments to
turn in such manner as to give the
war shorter duration.
There is no immediate peace for
the people of Russia. The people
of this country need look for moth
ing in this line at least for the pres
ent. But all of us are intensely in
terested in the daily developments If
the conferences with Germany anC
her allies with regard to peace with
those countries. We cannot help
having an interest in these develop
ments because it would seem that the
bolsheviki are going to let them
selves be used by the Teutons to ar
advantage in the prosecution of theil
side of the war. In that case the help
really intended and directed by us
would be diverted and used against
the very people giving it. The PEG
pie of America have a right to be con
oerned, but they are not going to sec
in reality anything that can be called
Russian peace, There is no sucr
thing as Russian peace to be had al
this time. We have yet to wait awhil,
and yet afew more developments tc
watch through their course.

SUPPORT THE PRESIDENT

The best news that has yet come to
us through the press dispatches from
our own national capital was that con-
tanned yesterday in the statement that
President Wilson is to have the undi-
yided support of all party interests in
the prosecution of the war. And it
can hardly be said that we know the
full meaning of all this. 1t ought to
mean all to the nations chief execu-
i've He not only will have the sup
port of the party leaders, but he will
be given the right to take the lead in
all legislation pertaining to the nation
al best interest wherever the matter
Of pushing the war is to be cared for.
This is a condition far different as
compared to that with which the pres
ldent started out. At the outset it
looked at times as if the democratic
side Of congress was going to be for
aed to fight some of its own members
and that hard. This situation has by
his time improved very great deal
and, while the president is entering up
II a work the gigantic meaning of
which could hardly be comprehended
by the ordinary individual, he will at
least have an assurance that those
who should lend their influence and
support are doing it heartily and with
the hope of helping win the war The
president would not be able to do as
| much unassisted as he will with the
support of the congress. Those of
rs who remember Hardwick, LaFol-
Iette and few others have cause to
feel relieved if we can take the dis
patches to mean that there is not so.
ing TO be any wrangles by these luke
| warm patriots at time when there
shuold be no wrangling.
There is every indication that this
country is in the conflict for one of
the greatest struggles of all history.
None OF Us know how long or how hot
The conflict will be and none of even
know how important it is going to be
for our national lawmakers to remain
strong supporters of the measures of
greatest concern to the president. 1t
is very certain that we are going TO be
most effective in our fight with Ger

many when we are more nearly united
in our purposes. The dispatches OF
yesterday read very much like we are
starting into the new session of con.
gress with all interests strongly cen
tered in the prosecution of the war
and in the most effective manner pos
sible
No one need fear that we will be
come slothful or ineffective so long as
we can say we are together in our in
tention to do our best with what we
are undertaking in our efforts to de-
feat the purposes of our Teuton foe.
The one purpose ought to be strong
support for the measures that will
mean most discomfort for the enemy
and the administration ought to have
these measures studied out in most
careful manner so that it will be pos
sible to move forward as the time is
at hand for action.
If the president and the congress re
main together, the enemy may fig
ure that this country is going to make
some trouble at least before the year
is gone.

UP TO CONGRESS.

Says the Baltimore American:
What the Kiel canal is to Germany a
connected inner way along the Allan
tic coast of the United States would
be to this country in case war should
be brought to this side. The United
States has a much vaster sea front
than Germany and the proposed inner
way from Boston bay to Galveston bay
would be upon a'smuch greater scale
than the Kiel canal. The United
States is upon much greater area
scale than Germany, and comparison
between our proposed inner way and
that which Germany has so advantage
ous1y nsed dlring the war now in prog
ress is based upon relative proportions.
The Atlantic Deeper Waterways AS
sociation, which assembled this week
at Miami, Fla, has again urged upon
the attention of congress the tremen-
dous Importance Of opening protect
ed way for ships along the eastern and
southern coasts of the United States
1t is not an impracticable scheme; it is
not scheme that is prohibitively cost
ly. During the past fifty years success
sive Congresses have wasted enough
money on entirly useless waterway
schemes to finance this linked-up way,
as proposed by the Atlantic Deeper
Waterway Association twice over.
The proposition in its larger aspects
will be up to the Sixty-fifth Congress
when it assemblies in regular session.
The surveys have all been made. The
time for debating the question os over
or, should be over. This inner way is
needed in Strengthening the national
defenses. The time for creating a de-
fensive inner way is before trouble is
right on us. Much can be done during
1918 if Congress makes way for the do
ing.
