be no period when all of the seed are
ripe. The crop is harvested when the
greater proportion of the seed are
ripe and the bloom is beginning to
decrease materially. Harvesting
should be done preferably, early in
the morning, when the plants are still
damp with dew, as the seeds shatter
easily. For the same reason the crop
is usually cut with a grain cradle
or with drop reaper. The binder
will shatter too many seed.
The grain is used largely for hu-
man food in the form of buckwheat
cakes, but makes good grain feed for
chiefly for bedding for animals. 1t
is splendid for this purpose, as it alb
serbs liquids readily and decomposes
rapidly when applied to the soil in

BET THIS MAN WILL GET NO
IRON CROSS FROM KAISER"
OFrom the Cincinnati Post.

This is Il story about how you
awokc to your duty. II started out
to be story about Thos. J. Davis.
But Tom Davis says it was not he who
got you to buy Liberty bond, but
your conscience pointing out your
duty.
And your conscience and your
neighbours conscience and CON
sciences all over the city working
together caused Cincinnati to sub
scribe S32, 800 900 to the Liberty loan,
or nearly 100 per cent. more than
was expected of it.
1t looks as if Tom Davis may be
right. He generally is called Tom,
even though he is vice-presidcnt of
the First National Bank, where the
continuous click of adding machines
counting money rises ut times to Il
roar. He was chairman of the Lib
erty loan committee that began
Cincinnatans what their duty was.
Just Lige Revival.
The committee turned the Liberty
loan campaign into great revival
Billy Sunday and his assistant re-
vivalists work in great city six
weeks and at the end of that time
they usually collect about $4,000.
But Davis and his crew, working only
four weeks, made consciences shell
out $32 100000 when only $1,000 900
was expected.
Between 10000 and 10000 cincin-
natians shit ire trail" to the altar
of their country and laid down their
"bit."
Appeal is Different.
Why, it wasn't so much the in
vestment itself that appealed to men,
Davis points out. Any bank will pay
almost as much interest on deposits.
1t was that men found in them
selves newborn love for their coun-
try and Il new faith in its ideals.
Thursday they crowded in front of
the Liberty bond counters of banks
and stores as worshipers before the
shrnes.
joicing that they had the privilege
to do their part" says Davis. "TRc
Liberty Loan campaign awakened the
national conscience"
Conscience Answered All.
Conscience answered every argu-
ment of those who delayed subscrip-
tons at first. And when it was not
conscience it was Boy Scout whom
Davis sent after citizens; or the
preachers whom Davis induced to de-
liver Liberty Bond sermons; or the
president of a lodge or union.
And when one went to moving
picture show, Davis had q man there
to speak to him, too.
There was no escaping Davis, his
men-and conscience.
That is how Cincinnti subscribed
$50, 100000 to the Liberty Loan
nearly 100 per cent more than was
expected of it.
Mr.. Davis is native of TaZewell
county. His mother, Mrs. Nancy Da-
Wis and sister, Miss Rcbecca, live in
this county, at Pounding Mill, the an
cestral home. 1t is pleasing to know
that Tazewell man and Virginian
was so largely instrumental in roll
ing up Cincinnati's magnificent Lib
erty Loan fund

FRETFUL BABIES
 NEED A LAXATIVE

When your baby is c-oss and fretful he chances are it is constipated and that a mild laxative is all that is neces- ,ary to make it comfortable and happy. Inactive bowels are the cause of as much discomfort to children as to older people, and unless the condition is promptly relieved is very apt to develop ,erious illness.
 For children there is nothing that will act more easily than the combina- ion of simple laxative herbs with pep in that is sold in drug stores under the name of Dr. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin. It does not sripe and is free from ,,piate or narcotic drugs, i. pleasant to he taste, and positively effective; chil- 3ren like it and take it readily.
 If you have never tried this simple. nexPensive remedy, get a bottle of pr. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin from your druggist and have it in the house to use he next time any of the children seem put of sorts. A trial bottle can be ob- aimed. free of charge, by writing to or. ". B.
