Future Prosperity and
DiYersification of CrOps

Georgia stands second in the pro-
duction of cotton. She can hold her
place in the total value of farm crops
if her people profit by the opportup
tiles she offers. Though her planters
may suffer temporary loss by diversi-
f1cation they will more than balance
the account in the increased produc-
ton of dairy products, beef and pork,
poultry, peanuts, velvet beans, pota-
toes, fruits, vegetables and cereals.

During the coming year, and per-
haps for several years, the United
States will be called upon to supply
the food requirements of her allies
as well as her own civilian popula-
ton. Above all it is imperative that
the armies have sufficient supplies,
even though the folks at home suffer
hunger. Only by each person doing
his share can the war be brought to
a successful conclusion. The soldier
boys do their part in fighting ruth
less foe; your part is to produce and
conserve the food supplies Your duty
is:
l. To grow staple fruit, garden and
farm crops. Let new and untried crops
alone.
2. To organize community farm la
Dor so as to utilize farm machinery to
the best advantage. A traction en-
CINE in community should be kept
busy. Business men should club to-
gether to furnish machinery to farm
ers who cannot afford to purchase at
present.
3. To assist the Demonstration and
Canning Club Agents in their work
Every family should can or evaporate
sufficient vegetables and fruits for
their own needs. In addition hand
some profit may be derived from the
surplus.
4. Each community should take
stock of its resources and require

New Weather Words.

The esteemed weather bureau has sprung q new one. It is the word "smOg," and it means smoke or fog. The bureau explains that very ire quently there are times when the mix ture is apparent in the atmosphere, and it considers the new word a great little idea.
 Very well, "smog" let 1t be. But why end there? Let's call mixture of snow and mud "smug," mixture of snow and soot 'snoots" and mixture of snow and hail snail" Thus we might have weather forecast:

Bone Surgery MarveIs.

A reserve officer in the United States medical corps who recently re- turned from Great Britain is loud in his praises of the work in bone sur gerry being done in British hospitals. He says: "They can take a rib from a man and use it to replace crushed bone in his arm. Patients who in earlier times would have been consid- cred permanently disabled are now fixed up in few weeks so that they can go back to the front. In a single month, in one hospital, we had 1850 bone cases, and 1000 of them were ready at the end of the month to go back and fight again."

What girl or woman hasn't heard of lemon juice to remove complexion blemishes; to bleach the skin and to bring out the roses, the freshness and the hidden beauty? But lemon juice alone is acid, therefore irritating, and should be mixed with orchard white this way. Strain through a fine cloth the juice of two fresh lemons into a bottle containing about three ounces of orchard white. then shake we'll and you have whole quarter pint of skin and complexion lotion at about the cost one usually pays for small jar of ordinary cold cream. Be sure to strain the lemon juice so no pulp gets into the bottle, then this lotion will remain pure and fresh for months. When applied daily to the face, neck, arms and hands it should help to bleach, clear, smoother and beautify the skin.
 Any druggist will supply three ounces of orchard white at very little cost and the grocer has the lemons. Adv.

SEE NAPOLEON IN KERENSKY
Many Regard Great Russian Leader, Now Thrty-SIx, as Like
 French Hero.

A writer in the National Geographic magazine observes that those who, like Plutafc5 seek for parallels In the lives and characters of men whose genius directs He fate of nations, will find many interesting points of similarity between tts man of destiny of the French revt%stion and the man of the hour in Russia's day of liberation from the oppression of autocracy. Napo- leon was in his thirty-frst year when he became first cousul of the French republic; Kerensky, premier of the Russian cabinet and now exercising the powers of dictator in order to re store order in the empire, is just thirty-six.
 Throughout his career Napoleon suf- fered from all incurable internal mal- ady, supposedly cancer of the stom- ach; KerenslSy IS also tortured by a disease (supposed;y tuberculosis of the liver), which prevents his working at fever heat more than a few weeks at time; then he is forced by weakness to recuperate for three or four days in sanitarium in the Crimea.
 Napoleon's judgment of men was in- stant and almost infallible Kerenslzy is reputed to possess the same faculty to remarkable degree.
 Kerensky is an impassioned orator of forceful, incisive style. His exhor- tations to the soldiers of the new Rus sia have much in common with the in- spring appeals of Napoleon to his soldiers before the Battle of the Pyra- mids and elsewhere.

FIVE PETITIONS ASKING ExPUL- SION OF WISCONSIN MAN
 PRESENTED.
LA TOILETTE IS SILENT
Senator Pomerene, Who Is Chairman of Committee On Privileges and Elections Said He Would Discuss
 Question With the Committee.

Washington.-There is little dispo- sition in the Senate to discuss the loyalty of it's members. For that req son there is little likelihood that the charges of disloyalty lodged against Senator LaFollette by the Minnesota Public Safety Commission and other individual citizens will be pressed. This was strongly indicated following presentation of five petitions for ex- pulsion of LaFollette on the ground that he has preached sedition.
 Senator Kellogg, Minnesota, intro duced the Minnesota Public Safety resolution. bearing the signature of the governor, attorney general and members of the commissicl, who de- clared that LaFollettes speech at St. Paul September 20 was "disloyal and seditious." It was such that Urea sonable sentiment in the State of Min nesota" has been created and .he sup port of the government has been weakened.
 The other four peIlLlons were pre- scented by Vice President Marshall upon recommendation of local citi- zens representing the Washburn, Wise, Loyalty League, demanding inn peachment of LaFollette flor his trea- sonable utterances and disloyalty to our government" by w. A. Coombe. a Washington, D. G., attorney; c. w. Canton, New York City, who said 'our sons giving up their lives for the cause of their country should not be compelled to listen to such traitors in our midst" and D. M. Jones, Washing ton, D. c.
 All five petitions are in the hands of the committee on privileges and elections of which Senator Pomerene is chairman. Pomerene said he will talk with committee members.
 Until then I can't say what the committee will do," he said, "of the 15 members of the committee, nine are in Washington. Two of these strongly favor committee action. Neither, however, would permit the use of his name in connection with his views" k
 MOSl IuGIuDcIS Ol tAO COlliullCOSs though unwilling to discuss the proba- ble action, indicated they believe the petitions will be allowed to lie on the table Meanwhile LaFollette, ap- parently undisturbed, went to ? acct ing of the finance committee. Pr<ssod for statement, he said, smilingly:
 "Im not making any statements whatsoever"
 It was in anticipation of a speech by LaFollette answering his critics that leaders determined to put the lid on any discussion by calling an execu- tive session.
 "We can't prevent any senator from speaking" said member of the rules committee, but we can prevent him using the Congressional Record for dissemination of speech indicating a serious lack of harmony in this body"
 If the committee should vote in fa- vor of expelling LaFollette, which no senator held likely, long and bitter fight doubtless would ensue. A two- thirds vote is required to expel a sen- stor. This could not be obtained. 1t is generally believed.

Nurses Are Fighting Winning Fight
Against Pneumonia.

In the office of the Henry street set
Element on the lower East side OF
New York there is war map of New
York city. 1t is different both in pur-
pose and appearance from the war
map of Europe. 1t is peace time
war map, but it depicts the advances
against pneumonia, one Of the worst
enemies of mankind, just as those
maps of the western front picture the
progress against the imperialistic enc
my Of democracy. This peace time
war map shows graphically the need
for replenishing the war-decimated
ranks of our army of nurses just as
those wavering and ever changing
lines on the face of Europe argue for
keeping our army up to full strength.
This map in the blouse on Henry
street" was made under the direction
Of Miss Lillian d. Wald, director of
the Henry Street settlement, who is
one Of the foremost leaders of the in
creasing army Of public health nurses.

The nurses of the House on Henry
street" are striving to remake this
pneumonia map just as the contendine
armies are striving to remake the mar
of Europe.
Each blue headed pin represents q
case of pneumonia that the nurses
under the direction of a physician
have cared for in the patients home
Each black headed pin represents a
death.
In certain sections of the East side,
particularly where the Italians live,
these pins are clustered SO closely
that there is literally not room for a
pin point between them.
The map is a constant reminder to
the nurses of the task they have set
before themselves. This is to get rid
of the black pins entirely and gradual
ly to eliminate the blue pins.
Last year the Henry Street settle
ment had more cases of pneumonia
under it's care than all hospitals of
the city put together. The nurses in
their house to house visits cared for
1888, while the records of the hos
pitfalls totaled 1904.

nurses was among the Italians and
foreign born Jews. About 43 per cent.
of the cases were babies under two
years and 70 per cent. were children
under five.
Home care of pneumonia is not easy
to give. The nurse must have infinite
patience. She must convince the
mother that fresh air is imperative
She must persuade her that bathing
will be more likely to save the baby
than to kill it. She must also fight
for open windows as well as for clean
Illness. She must make two or three
calls day in the early stages of the
disease and she must supervise the
administration of all medicine.
While this all means hard work the
results have been gratifying. OF the
1888 cases cared for by the Henry
street nurses last winter, 1878 were
cured. The case death rate was 8.67
per cent, which was. much lower than
that of the hospitals Altogether the
effects of home care of pneumonia have
been so satisfactory that the nurses
believe that their ultimate goal, the
elimination of the blue and black pins.
is within the possibilities Of the future
