FEED OUT YOUR HOGS
SIX WEEKS EARLIER

In every lot of hogs on feed two or
three weeks quickly and actually eat
less than other. If all would fatten
like these, the entire drove would be
ready for the market six weeks
earlier and to save six weeks feed is
an item that you fully understand.
The hog that fattens easily must
be in prime physical condition. The
B. A. Thomas Hog Powder is con-
ditioner for hogs. 1t keeps their sys-
tenn clean and healthy and enables
them to fatten quickly without fall
ing a prey to the usual diseases or
hogs. The B. A. Thomas Hog Pow
der is not stock feed. It's straight
medicine and we took the agency be-
cause it enables you to feed out your
hogs much earlier. Sold by G. E.

THE LAND AND THE MEN.

i Cut-over lands in the United States
TO the extent of 2OO,OOO,OOO acres
await clearing; 100000 acres of
swamp land, 100000 acres of arid
land, await drainage and irrigation.
A million young men returning from
France after the war may, if oppor-
tunity offers, wish farms to cultivate.
With statesmanlike provision, Sec
rotary Lane desires to bring these
men and the land together. There
are farms for all of them, and land
still to spare for future applicants
But one man by himself cannot drain
swamps or irrigate dry land; nor can
he often finance the work of putting
cut-over land into crop condition
These things the Government can do
and Mr.. Lane is right in thinking ii
should.
The war has suddenly revealed ou1
lack and our need in food production
The Government might have worF
ready for the boys when they return
in making ready the new farms; /
might have the farms for them wheJ
made ready. all upon some equitable
system of deferred payments, with II
surance safeguards against death c.
illness. which should in the end &c
pay the cost of the vast under taking
A million farms reclaimed iron
idle wastes. a million families turning
to food production in comfortaoi
homes, would be an addition of meal
culable value to the Nations physl
cal and moral resources The pre-
Iiminary work of land reclamation 70

CHRISTMAS NOT AS USUAL.

Christmas this year, the country
second war Christmas, will be regu-
lated by the War Industries Board.
BY an agreement with retail inter
ests, the normal holiday working
force in stores will not be increased
or the shopping hours extended, and
buyers will be urged to confine pres
ents to useful articles, except in the
case of gifts for children. Deliveries
will be restricted and customers will
be asked to carry their purchases
home wherever convenient.
This puts Christmas on war basis
like other industries.
These restrictions, to be sure, do
little more than embody reforms lone
advocated to check the abuses that
had overgrown the observance of the
anniversary and made holiday shop
ping a scandal The point is that
they are now applied with the weight
of Government authority and as
conservation measure. Christmas as
usual" would mean the borrowing Of
employees from more essential indus
tries and a waste of heat, light and
transportation facilities over and
above the money waste involved. To
return to the older and simpler condl-
rions of Christmas giving and Christ
mas shopping would be an individual
benefit and in the aggregate a con-
seryation of war resources.
The true spirit of Christmas will
gain rather than suffer from the
change. But both dealers and shop
pers must cooperate if the reform
ts tn be effectual And the injunction
still holds good to ''shop early" The
statement that many of the toys on
sale this season are made from the
refuse of material from former pro-
cesses of manufacture is an instance
of-tfe possibilities of Christmas econ
Omy in industry.

OCEAN CROSSINGS.

The first air-borne mail to Chicago
broke no records of speed The eX-
perienced aviator was forced to de-
scend at Cambridge, O., and again in
Cleveland, where he passed the nigh;
The shorter air course from New
York to Washington has not always
been traversed without delays.
In ones own land in time of peace
an emergency halt is an incident; in
a neutral country in war-times it
means at worst interment; in a hostile
country it means only imprisonment.
But the aviator forced down far out
at sea faces probable death.
Excepting the long, roundabout
route by Labrador, Greenland, Ice
land and the Farce Islands, in fog
and cold winter darkness, over wastes
cruelty inhospitable to emergency
stops, there is no possible air route
from the United States to Europe that
does not demand a single flight con
siderably longer than that from New
York to Chicago, That most recently
advocated calls for one long jump
from Newfoundland to the Azores.

WHO'LL WIN THIS PRIZE.

Over in Dougherty county a blue
ribbon has been offered the first far
mer who destroys all of his 1918 cot
ton stalks-the which is one of the
most effective of all methods of fight
ing the boil weevil.
In this county The Times-Recorder
will do even better-it will give a
years subscription to the first far
mer producing proof that he has de-
stroyed every this seasons cotton
stalk on his farm.
Entomologists have pointed out,
says the Albany Herald, that the far
mer with the boil weevil in his fields
makes a poor investment when he
leaves stalks standing through 0cto-
Der for the sake of the few locks OF
cotton he will still be able to ga
the-. It is a poor investment for two
reasons. In the FIRST place, with Ia
bcr as scarce and expensive as it is
aow, it does not pay to pick cotton
where there is only a boil here and q
boll there, with some stalks entirely
bare. In the second place, and OF
far greater importance, leaving the
cotton stalks standing affords food
for tens of thousands of adult wee
wills. They feed voraciously on the
cotton leaves, and when the first
J frost comes they go into Information
strong and vigorous. AS the result Of
that condition, they are able to with
stand the rigors of severe winter

THE CITY OF LILLE.

The evacuation of Lille. the largest
city in France occupied by the Ger
mans during their entire four years
sojourn, is about to begin. 1t is i'm
minent as well as certain, and in d
few days the Huns will have aban-
doned this most important possession
Confidently the close-by cities of
Roubaix and Tourcoing will also be
vacated
These three cities, whose combined
population is nearly half Of million
or was when the war started-com-
prise one fthe greatest industrial
centers of all France.
Lille has a most interesting his
tory
In the eleventh century castle OF
the counts of Flanders stood on an
island in the Deule river. A town
grew up around it and became known
as "LLsle," or Lille.
Out of those humble origins great
industrial city grew. "Lisle thread"
and Elsie lace" bear testimony in all
civilized lands of the chief industries
of the community.
When Lille passed back into the
hands Of the French, another chapter
was completed in the annals of
city, the wealth of which made it for
centuries the prey of greedy princes.
It has passed successfully under the
rule of the counts Of Flanders, the
dukes of Burgundy, the emperors Of
Austria. the kings of Spain and those
of Flanders. None were ever able to
take from it the customs and priv
i!eges and liberties its citizens early
wrested from the feudal lords OF
Flanders.
In 1892 the inhabitahts of Lille
waged an heroic struggle against an
Austrian army. Carlyle, the great
historian tells in his own inimitable
style the result:
1T is in vain; Lille, after burning,
is always quenched again; Lille will
not yield. The very boys deity wrench
the matches out bf fallen bombs;
+ " Memorable also be that nimble
barber, who when the bomb burst be-
side him, snatched up shred of it,
introduced soap and lather into 1t,
CRYING, = = My new shaving dish!
"The enemy abandoned the siege
and the heroic city, blackened and
shattered by fire and shell, proudly
and triumphantly faced the future as
it shall again now"
