IN.GERMANY Lies
Circulated In CANADA

Canada is also having trouble with
Made-in-Germany lies calculated to
hinder Canadian food conservation &C
cording to an official statement re-
ceived from the Canadian food con-
troller by the United States food adj
ministration.
The stories bothering Canada are
the United States food administra-
tor recently denounced In this coun-
try, such as the ridiculous salt and
blueing famine fakes and the report
that the government would seize
housewives stocks of home canned
goods.
The Canadian food controller esti-
mates that when the people listen to
and pass on such stories, each one
has the power of destruction that lies
In a battalion of soldiers.
Stories without even a vestige of
foundation have been scattered broad
cast" said the Canadian statement
"Nor have they come to life casually.
They have started simultaneously In
different parts Of the country and In
each instance have been calculated to
arouse public Indignation.
"They are insidious, subtle, persist
ent Bit by bit they dissipate public
trust, the great essential In the work
of food control.
"It lies with every individual to for
bear from criticism; to refrain from
passing on the vagrant and harmful
story, and thus the more effectively
to cooperate In work which Is going
to mean more than the majority Of
people yet realize"

NEW TRIAL GRANTED
ON UNUSUAL REASON

ATLANTA, Ga, May 2.-The judg-
ment of the lower court in convicting
B. H. McWhorter on a charge of steal
ing automobile tires and accessories
was denied yesterday by the court of
appeals on the rather unusual ground
that Judge Ben H. Hill of Fulton Su-
perior court, undertook to give judic-
ial Endorsement to the character of
testimony rendered by police officers.
In the trial of McWhorter, the prose-
cution depended mainly upon police
officers and detectives as witnesses.
Their testimony was attacked by the
defense on this ground, it being claim
ed that they should be supported by
other witnesses. In charging the jury.
Judge Hill said: "The fact that these
witnesses are officers is nothing
against them. We rely upon these Of
ficers." The court of appeals holds
that this was equivalent to giving
these officdr-witnesses judicial in
dorsement and approval and gave an
improper potency to the influence of
their testimony"

MORE FOOD CROPS
WILL Be PLANTED

ATLANTA. Ga, May Georgia
farmers will continue to plant food
crops until the middle of May as
means of increasing food production
to the maximum, and thereby helping
to win the war, according to plans
outlined by the Georgia Farmers Union
ct a special session now being held
in the state capitol in this city.
Attention was directed yesterday to
the fact that corn and other food crops
can be planted and grown successful
" after May 1, and that farmers should
overlook no space where such crops
can be placed, utilizing the skips in
cotton rows and later planting the
dows with peas and otherwise increas-
ing food production to the very utmost.
Strong Endorsement was given to
United States Senator Hoke Smiths
position in regard to the proposal to
fix a price on cotton by congressional
enactment The farmers are not OPP
posed to cotton price-fxing if it
should become an absolute necessity,
but they can see no necessity for 1t
at the present time, and they insist,
as does Senator Smith, that the price
of manufactured cotton products
should be fixed the same time as the
price of raw material, should Con-
gress attempt any price-fixing at all.

SPECIAL CAMPAIGN
FOR SAVINGS STAMPS

ATLANTA. Ca. May All county
chairmen for war saving stamps in
Georgia are being asked to complete
their county organization not later
than June 1 in preparation for big
drive to be launched early in that
month. Georgia's war saving stamp
quota of S50,oOQ,OO0 cannot be sold
without perfect organization. and that
is why State Director Hugh Richard
son and his executive committee have
decided TO lay special stress on this
work for the next four weeks. Com
plete organization means that one war
saving stamp society must be organic
ed for every three hundred persons at
the outside, and one sales agency for
thrift and war saving stamps must be
established for every three hundred.
It means that every industrial, bust
ness, civic, commercial, educational,
religious and fraternal group in every
county must be organized to buy war
saving stamps Systematically and to
take an active and enthusiastic part in
the great patriotic movement.

WIVESIHAD BETTER
Be CAREFUL WITH
THEIR HUBBIES NOW

ATLANTA, Ca, May wives had
better hold on to their husbands in
stead of throwing them away in the
divorce court, and especially so with
the dread specter of polygamy star
ing them in the face as possibility
of the war.
That's the view of the matter ex-
pressed by Judge w. D. Ellis of Full
ton superior court, who has listened
to so many tales of domestic unhappi-
ness, and presided over so many di-
vorce trials, that he can almost tell
by looking at a woman when she en-
ters the court room whether she's go
ing to accuse her husband of habitual
drunkenness or infidelity or cruel
treatment
Judge Ellis deplores the growing
divorce evil in large cities, seeing in
It a menace to the very foundations
of society, and has often gone before
committees of the legislature and
urged them to recommended the pass
age of stricter laws on marriage and
divorce.
Yesterday he CHANGED to be in face-ti
Gus frame of mind and threw out the
suggestion above quoted in the course
of heavy calendar of divorce cases
where it looked as If regular cpl
demic had broken out among married
women to get rid of their Husbands

Catarrhal Deafness Cannot Be Cured

by local applications, as they cannot reach
the diseased portion of the ear. There is
only one way to cure catarrhal deafness,
and that Is by constitutional remedy
Catarrhal Deafness is caused by an in
famed condition of the mucous lining of
the Eustachian Tube. When this tube Is
infiamed you have q rumbiing sound or i'm
perfect hearing, and when it is entirely
closed. Deafness 10 the result. Unless the
Inflammation can be reduced and this tube
restored to its normal condition, hearing
will be destroyed forever. Many cases OF
deafness are caused by cataFrh which is
an inflamed condition OF the mucous sur
faces. Halls Catarrh Medicine acts thru
the blood on the mucous surfaces of the
system
We will give One Hundred Dollars for
