EGYPTIAN COTTON
 SHOWS UP WELL

Picking of the Egyptian long staple cotton is now in full swing and those who have pinned their faith in that class of cotton are being amply re- warded for their faith, for the fields are averaging almost as much as short staple, while the price is al most three times better.
 That the Egyptian cotton culture on Yuma Project is but in it's exper1- mental stage all must admit, and that the crop is as good as it is but proves that Yuma Project lands are especial ly adapted to Egyptian cotton, which will be amply demonstrated next year and ever after Some of the fields go considerably over bale per acre.

INTENSIVE TRAINING FOR
SIXTEEN WEEKS BEGINS AT
CAMP WHEELER MONDAY

Camp Wheeler, Macon, Ga, Oct. 1.
An intensive training schedule cover
ing sixteen weeks was begun today
by the Thirty-first division, composed
of the former national guard from
Georgia, Alabama and Florida. The

lectures on the obligations and rights
of the soldier and "why we are at
war"
AS soon as possible both the French
and the American gas masks will be
put into use. The men will be first
taught the use of the masks under
normal conditions. After this is COM
pleted they will try their hands at
exploiting" real gas fields just as if
they were encountered along the wes-
tern front in France
Hand grenade practice will be stres
sed, and as soon IS bayonet runner
frames can be constructed the troops
will be instructed in the important
part the bayonet takes in the war. AS
soon as equipment arrives the artill-
cry brigade will begin practicing cur
tain or barrage firing.
The schedule calls for eight hours
of hard work a day. The morning
drill will be from 7;45 o'clock to H.
45 o'clock.

TRAVELLING MAN HELD
ON SUSPICION OF BEING
GERMAN SPY RELEASED,

V. H. Vetter, the travelling sales
man of Pittsburg, Pa, who was held
for some hours at the police station
suspected Of being a German agent
was released Monday afternoon when
City and government officials de-
cided that his story of "knock the
helmet off the kaiser" game was true.
Vetters arrest followed suspicious
actions around the Fulton county Jail
and various reports circulated around
the police station tina he was a Ger
man spy, and his scheme OF knock
he helmet off the kaiser" was only a
ruse to get into the training camps.
As Vetter explained the game to de-
teceives it is a kaiser head with a he'll
met on, which is peeping over wall
The idea is to sell three baseballs for
a nickle and the throWer pegs aWayat
the helmet, which when is hit imme-
diately changes into head of Uncle
Sam wearing the custom stope pipe
hat and his hand waving an Ameri-
can flag. He thought the game would
take with the soldiers and that was
why he chose the training camps.
