Plant Land to Castor Beans

Castor oil is the only lubricant found salts
factory for airpane fabrication. 1t is the only
lubricant that will flow at high attitudes. I'm
less the United States can secure its quota of
castor oil, the $4,000 airplanes now under con-
struction will avail us nothing; they cannot as
cend without fabrication. The airpane is the
eye of the modern fighting machine; 1t is the
most vital factor in presentday fighting meth
DDS. The success Of American arms in this war
will depend primarily upon our ability to mobi
lie and completely equip a monster fleet Of SUI
perior aircraft.
Florida must necessarily play an important
part in supplying castor oil for arplane lubrica-
ton, as this State is one of the few localities
where conditions both as to soil and climate are
suitable for the successful cultivation of castor
beans. To supply your government with its nee
essary quota of castor oil it will require the i'm
mediate planting of thousands and thousands Of
acres to this crop. You can render real service
by planting castor beans.

Easily GrOwn---ASsured Market

To facilitate this work and make it possible
for Florida farmers and growers to enlist their
acreage with the least delay and without confu-
sion the government has awarded contracts to
one or two individuals who will make sub-con-
tracts, supply seen, furnish instructions for cult
walton and agree to purchase the entire crop
when harvested, paying a remunerative price at
the growers shipping point.
Such a contract has been awarded to d. C.
Gillett, Of the Buckeye Nurseries, and the en-
tire office, field and executive forces Of this insti
tuition are being employed to promptly secure
subcontracts with growers to the total of at least
10000 acres of castor beans.
If you own citrus grove plant between
rows no detriment to trees. II you own truck
ing land plant between your truck after the
spring crops are harvested. If you usually plant
forty acres to corn, plant half to castor beans
this season. If you own cleared or uncleared
land that can be planted serve your nations in
terest and your own by planting beans.

guns?
What is the worth CT all tA'se D"'-
tie drums,
IL from the field the loved one never
comes?
What all these loud hosannas TO tne
brave,
II all your share is some forgotten
grave?"
THE ANSWER
DR.. James D. Hughes, for over
thirty years superintendent Of edu
cation of the schools OF Toronto
Canada, answered this poem. Great
er significance is given to the an
swer by the fact that DR.. Hughes
own son was killed In battle ana
lies somewhere in France. HIS
answer follows:
God gave my son in trust to me;
Christ died for him and he should be
A man for Christ.
He is his own, and Gods,
And mans; not mine alone.
lie was not mine to give" Ele/gave
H imself that he might help to save
All that Christian should revere,
+ All that enli2 htened men hold dear
20 feed the guns" Oh, torpid soul
Awake. and see life as a whole.
When freedom, honor, Justice, right
Were threatened by despot's might,
With heart afame and soul alight
| He bravely went for God &c fight
Against base savages whose pride
The laws of God and man defed;
Who slew the mother, and her chill,
Who maidens pure and sweet defiled.
He did not go ito feed the guns"
He went to save from ruthless Huns
His home and country, and to be
A guardian of democracy.
What if he does not come back?"
you say;
All, well, my sky would be more
gray,
But turn the clouds and the sun
would shine
And vital memories be mine
Gods test of manhood is, know,
Not will he come" but did he
go?"
My son we'll knew that he might die,
And yet he went, with purpose high
r, fight f6f peace, and overthrow
The plans of Christs relentless foe.
He dreaded not the battlefield
He went to make fierce vandal;
yield.
If he comes not again to me
1 shall be sad; but not that he
Went like mana hero true
His part unselfishly to do
MY heart will feel exultant pride
That for humanity he died.
Forgotten Grave" This selfish ple;
Awakens no deep response in ne,
For though his grave l may not see
MY boy will ne'er forgotten be.
