Warning on Our Commerce.


Three American ships were sunk
Sunday, one of which, the City of
Memphis. had made a notable record
in carrying and landing contraband
supplies. Two were homeward
bound in ballast and were sunk by
gun fire. The third vessel was tor
pedoed without warning and it is
probable that a number OF her men
were drowned. These attacks upon
American ships prove that the Ger
man campaign against the American
flag is on with no qualifying condi-
tions, and give justification for the
use OF defensive methods by such
American vessels as may enter the
war zone prepared TO resist attack.

SOW CLOVER FOR THE
CHICKENS.

If we would have eggs when they
are highest we should begin now to
sow rye, barley, crimson clover, ETC.,
for the hens this winter. Vacant lots
near the lighthouses should all be
sown to a cover crop of some kind
where the hens can roam at will on
mild days. These will pay the cost of
seeding many times over in increased
egg production, for hens simply won't
lay unless they have green food of
some kind; so let's get busy. Ada C.
Hall In Southern Agriculturist.
1t is to be regretted that more COM
mercial apple orchards are not being
planted in the hill sections of the

ever, until the farmers of this section
organize and cooperate in both pro-

of the home apple orchard too, is

BIG FAMILIES.

Much is printed nowadays about
big families. DR.. William ]. McCrann,
of Omaha, Neb., is the father of one
OF these much-read-about families.
Here is what he says:
"As the father of thirteen children
certainly know something about
your great medicine, and aside from
my own family experience l have, in
my years of practice, found Castoria
a popular and efficient remedy in al
most every home"
Charles H. Fletcher has received
hundreds Of letters from prominent
physicians who have the same esteem
for Castoria that DR.. McCrann has.
Not only do these physicians say they
use Castoria in their own families, but
they prescribe it for their patients.
First of all it is n vegetable prepa-
ration which assimilates the food and
regulates the stomach and bowels.
After eating comes sleeping, and
Castoria looks out for that too. 1t al
lays feverishness and prevents loss of
sleep, and this absolutely without the
use of opium, morphine, or other
baneful narcotic.
Medical journals are reluctant to
discuss proprietary medicines. Halls
Journal of Health, however, says
"Our duty is to expose danger and
record the means for advancing health.
The day for poisoning innocent chill
dren through greed or ignorance
ought to end. To our knowledge Cas-
