THE KINGDOM OF THE FREE

oO lfSu u6uUly 1dR6 COIUc u late declarations of war against Germany that the announcement 'of Chowfa Mana Vajiravudh of Siam caused but a fiutter of in terest.
 Yet an interesting story might be written about thIs action on the part of the Siamese people in declaring war against an empire that is practically fighting the world.
 Siam has no particular griev- ance against Germany. but Siam is the kingdom of the free, as it's name, literally translated, i'm plies, and Siam can see no justice in the present arrogant position of the Teuton war lords.
 Travellers have written much of the intelligence and general excellence of the Siamese. Their king now proves his wisdom. What could be more fitting than Muang Thai, the kingdom of the free, being formally listed against a ombindtion of powers whose outlined purpose is to rule the world?
 It is not because Siam has any diplomatic difference with Ger many, but 1t is because of the dominating action of Germany in the past, the relentless determi- nation to crush out democracy to rule or ruin.
 The chief reason for the decla- ration of war announced by Slams king is that Germany has been unjust to smaller nations, not recognizing their helpless ness, and seeking by force o1 might to reign supreme oyer the world.
 The right to live and let live is the underlying principle that car be found in the king of Siam s declaration to the nations in volved in war. His little king dom will stand with other na- tions seeking the freedom of the seas, the rights of man and the democratic supremacy of com merce and the people.
 As fighting factor Siam can not seriously be considered. In mines and minerals the little kingdom is a country of great wealth. It is independent. It seeks no favors from any nation and orly asks that it be allowed to grow and prosper in state of peace.
 True to tradition, true to the laws of their forefathers, who came from the north in 575 A. D. the Siamese today uphold the right to be recognized as the kingdom of the free, and because of this inherited spirit of free dom the people of Siam are in sympathy ard in diplomatic ac- cord with the allies and are not on the side of might, but on the side of right.
 We honor the courage, the in- dependent spirit, the character istic independence of the Siam csc in their plucky stand.

Spanish variety is best for this purpose and should be planted four months before danger of frost at the rate of 12 to 16 pounds of shelled nuts per acre. The pigs may be turned on the pasture as soon as the nuts are well formed, in which case they eat some of the foliage as well as the nuts. Peanut pasture will furnish grazing for about two months and with a small amount of corn to prevent the pork from becoming soft. will make gains of over pound per head each day.
 COW PEAS AND SOY BEANS
 Plant cowpeas in July for fall grazing. Sow in rows at the rate of 3 or 4 pecks per acre. This gives opportunity to culti- vate and prevents trampling of | the plants by the pigs. COwpeas should be grazed as soon as the first pods formed contain peas i in the dough stage, as there IS mo uniformity in the ripening of the peas. Much of the food value is Tn the leaves. When cowpea pasture is supplemented with a small amount of corn to balance tbe ration the rate of gain is ap- proximately one pound per head each day.
 Plant soy beans shortly after corn-planting tune to pasture in from 90 to 120 days. depending upon the variety. The culture is similar to that for cowpeas. Sly beans should be more mature than cowpeas when pastured, keeping the hogs off until the lower leaves turn yellow and drop off and the beans become firm. Soy beans produce more grain per acre than cowpeas and fatten pigs more rapidly and with less corn supplement-. -O-

CHIGIS BACK TO OLD HOME
Roman Family to Occupy Historic Villa
Farnesina-Descenda of
Original Owners.

After 357 years the historic Villa
Farnesina, on the banks of the Tiber,
a half-mile distant from st. Peters
church, will again be occupied by de-
scendants of it's original owners and
builders, the Princes Of Chigi, says a
Rome correspondent.
The head of the house, Prince Lu-
dovic Chigi, VINO last year was APP
pointed marshal of the Holy church
and the guard of the Conclave and,
therefore, rules the Vatican during the
interim between the death of a pope
and the election of a new one, recently
disposed of the Chigi palace to the
Italian government. 1t is stated that
by this sale lie was put in position to
buy back the Villa Farnesina, erected
in 1509-11 by the Papal banker Ages
tino Chigi, and notable because of its
frescoes by Raphael.
The palace will be restored and re-
furnished as it was when first occupied
by the Chigi family, an auction sale
having been held recently to rid the
palace of the furniture left there by
the king of Naples.
The return of the Chigis is COnsid-
cred remarkable since it is proverbial
in Rome that when once family
leaves it's home it leaves forever.

trade, manufacturers associations and

the campaign. Patriotic societies by
the score have been enlisted, as well

No other Place Would po.

A dentist, who had been made nerv-
Gus by frequent burglaries in his
vicinity, was somewhat startled recent
ly by having man come regularly at
the same hour every evening and SIT
on his doorstep. He finally suggested
that, if ii would be all the same to
him, he would be pleased to have him
divide his attention and sit on some
neighbours doorstep for a while.
''But it wouldn't be the same,
shouted the visitor" nor anything like
it. You are a dentist, and l have an
aching tooth that haven't the cour-
age to have pulled out. | come here
every afternoon trying to make up my
mind to have it out, and as soon as l
come in sight of your house it stops
aching, but when 1 sit on your door
step, and the COMPOUNDED thing knows
it can be pulled out if it gives me
trouble, l have some rest"

With the Fingers!
Says Corns Lift Out
Without Any Pain

Sore eorns, hard corns, soft corns or
any kind Of corn can shortly be
lifted right out with the fingers if you
will apply on the corn few drops of
freezone, says Cincinnati authority.
At little cost one can get small bot
tie of freezone at any drug store, which
will positively rid ones feet of every
corn or callus without pain or sore
ness or the danger of infection.
This new drug is an ether compound,
and dries the moment it is applied and
does not inflame or even irritate the
surrounding skin. Just think! You
can lift off your corns and calluses
now without a bit Of pain or soreness.
If your druggist hasn't freezone he can
easily get small bottle for you from
his wholesale drug house.-adv.

a penny for it stepped timidly up to the
counter of the hardware store.
Il want a-uh, lock washer! You
know, one that goes on a bolt to keel
the nut from slipping, and is station
ary."
The hardware dealer pulled out lit
tie drawer and tossed out few metal
disks on the glass showcase. The boy
examined them. He found thar they
were not only perforated in the center,
but that they were split, and the two
ends bent apart, much like the clincher
rim on an automobile tire.

gravely examining them.
