A statement, urging that as a patri-
otto duty city and town residents trans
form their yards into gardens. and
farmers 40 diversity their crops as to
make each section self sustaining. was
issued last week by the L. S. Depart
ment of Agriculture The statement
insists that two or three crops of some
sort should be raised during the coming
summer on every vacant square foot of
ground in the cities as we'll as in the
smaller towns and the country
IF national policy DEGREES that there
should be big increase in our acreage

statement says, then the nation as
whole. and not the farmers "a class.
should and must assume the major part
of the risk involved. The department
is urging each section of the country to
become AZ nearly as practicable agri-
culturally independent. This is good
policy in time of war. when our trans
portation systems necessarily would be
chiefly occupied with the transportation
of soldiers and war supplies.

A country lawyer was defending a
prisoner who had killed a man by hit
ting him on the head with brick.
The case against the prisoner being
quite clear the counsel endeavored to
get his client off by making per-
fervid speech. He said: "The respon-
sibility of defending my client is al
most overwhelming. This morning, as
was walking in my garden enjoying
the lovely sunshine and balmy air, lis
tening to the birds singing, and look
ing at all the beautiful flowers, I said
to myself, My poor client, immured in

the court shouted: Neither can the

GIRLS! MAKE A
BEAUTY LOTION
WITH LEMONS
Observation-Disclosures

At the cost of small jar of ordinary
cold cream one can prepare full quar-
ter pint of the most wonderful lemon
skin softener and complexion beautifer,
by squeezing the juice Of two fresh
lemons into a bottle containing three
ounces of orchard white. Care should
be taken to- strain the juice through q
fine cloth so no lemon pulp gets in,
then this lotion will keep fresh for
months. Every woman knows that lem
on juice is used to bleach and remove
such blemishes as freckles, sallowness
and tan and is the ideal skin softener,
smoothener and beautifer.
Just try til Get three ounces Of
orchard white at any pharmacy and
two lemons from the grocer and make
up quarter pint Of this sweetly frag-
rant lemon lotion and massage it daily
into the face, neck, arms and hands. 1t
should naturally help to whiten, soften,
freshen and bring out the roses and
beauty Of any skin. 1t is truly marvel
GUS to smoother rough, red hands. ADV.

Taller Order.

Jones had been q member Of the glo-
rious company of the voorhees, for
some time, SO that when the offer OF
work as a carter came Jones jumped
at 1t.
But even to be carter requires ex-
perience, particularly in loading up,
and when one has two-wheeled
spring cart to load it is better not to
put all the goods at the back. This,
however, was what Jones did, with the
consequence that when they were 60
ing up hill the horse, unable to stand
the strain, stopped.
1t did not strike our friend that his
method Of loading was at fault. He
tried vainly to induce his steed to pro-
coed, and then, noticing that the ami
mails feet only just touched the ground,
he turned and drove back at full speed
to mis- guv-nor.
Haven't you got taller horse, guv'-
nor?" he queried, artlessly. "This one
amt high enough for the work"

runway. The frame is divided into
compartments by boards extending
from end to end, each compartment be-
ing for one hen. The frame is placed
on level ground and staked in place.
At opposite ends Of each compartment

space is covered with wire netting,
with shelter boards placed loosely over
1t. Under one of the hinged covers the
nest should be placed on the ground,
and at the opposite end food and water
are provided. Each hen has plenty of
space to exercise in, and must at least
get up for food and water. The indl-

GOOD BRAND OF PATRIOTISM
Business Men Should Cooperate to
Utmost With Farmers In Market
ing All Staple Crops.

Southern business men can show no
better brand of patriotism this year
than by cooperating to the utmost
with farmers in marketing. We be-
lieve excellent prices for nearly all
staple crops will prevail this fall, but
local market gluts, because of unor'
ganized, badly directed selling meth
DDS, are always possible. This is the
business mans problem as much so as
1t is the farmers. Ask your merchant
and your broker what plans are under
way for insuring, in so far as possible,
fair prices for corn, beans, peanuts,
hogs ana cattle this fall. If nothing
is being done, insist that something be
started.-The Progressive Farmer.

Children and Untruths.

Why do children lie? Edwin s. Pull
Ter in the Mothers Magazine answers
he question by saying that the imagi-
nation of a child is stronger than his
intellect, that fiction is as real to a
child as fact.
"The cure for lies inspired by imagi-
nation" he asserted, 'is the education
of the child's intellect to distinguish
between fact and fancy. AS his error
is mental, not normal, his cure must
be mental. 1t would be grave error
Of training to attempt to suppress his
Imagination as a cure for his untruths.
Imagination is the handspring which
moves his mentality to growth, hence
1t should be directed into rational
channels and not curbed.

cream supplied to the creameries Of

leo should be arranged, the most eff
fective and economical method Of pre-
venting the entrance OF the pest into
the United States would be to under
take its determination in Mexico. This
probably would involve large expendi-
lures, but the nature Of the emergency
might fully justify them.
The exterminatior Of local infesta-
tions in Mexico near the United States
border would be undertaken with the
cooperation Of the Mexican govern
ment or local Mexican authorities, BY
this means the pest would be kept SO
much the farther from the cotton
fields Of the United States.
Fund Now Being Used.
Fifty thousand dollars was made Inn
mediately available in the regular agri-
cultural appropriation bill for 1918, APP
proved March 4, 1917, to prevent the
establishment Of the pink boil worm IN

being used, the secretary states, in in
speeding and safeguarding the territory
surrounding ten cottonseed-oil mills In
Texas which had received considerable
quantities of seed from Mexico before
the importation of seed was prohibited,
and in the inspection Of border com
merce and the enforcement Of the cot
ton seed quarantine.
In summing up the need for the
emergency appropriation of S5OOOOO'
Secretary Houston says in his letters
to the committee chairmen: 1.-THE pink
boil worm situation in Mexico proves
a grave menace to the cotton crop OF
the United States, and the nation
should not fail to adopt any measure
of control which appears to offer pro-
lection from this pest. The appropria-
ton now requested is a matter OF the
greatest urgency and to be Of service
