FEEDING SEED Is VIOLATING;
LAW.


William Elliott. food administra-
tor has issued the following state
ment:
Reports have reached this Office
that farmers in sections of the State
are feeding seed to cattle, and In
some instances using seed for fer
tiiizers. Such policy on the part Of
any producer is shortsighted when
the prevailing price for cotton seed is
obtainable and results in an econom-
ic loss as we'll as destroying valuable
food for man and beast.
"The food administration would
like to see this wasteful practice elm
mated. Rule of the special rules Of
the United States food administra-
ton prohibits the use of cotton seed
for feed or fertilizers without the
written consent OF the State food ad-
nitnistrator. 1t is probable that few
farmers who are thus practicing this
wasteful method realize the loss both
to themselves and to their fellow man
resulting in the utilization Of cot.
ton seed I'm this manner.
America is the greatest food
storehouse Of the world today, and
we must all practice the strictest
kind of economy. There must be no
waste of the essential food products.
The oil which is extracted from the
cotton seed is food product"

Secretary Of War Cross Examined
Tuesday.

! Washington, Feb. 2.-While sena-
tors prepared speeches for delivery
next week in support Of measures to
establish a war cabinet and create a
munitions director, the senate mill
tary committee today arranged to
recall Secretary Baker Tuesday for
cross examination regarding his state
mept before the committee last Mon
day ON achievements Of the war de-
partment.
Senator Hitchcock, Democratic
member Of the military committee,
plans to address the senate Monday
in support Of the bills and is expect
ed to reply to Mr.. Baker. He and
others who are supporting the legisla-
tion which President Wilson is active
ly OpOsing are preparing to sharply
cross examine the secretary Tuesday.
Another speech In support of the
war legislation is planned by Sena-
tOI WdUSW OTll OI new OTk, u ne
publican member of the military COM
mittee. Administration spokesmen in
the senate are ready to )rcply both to
Senators Hitchcock and Wadsworth
and also are confident of preventing
consideration of the measures in the
senate by holding them in the commit
tee. With a vacancy on the commit
tee, due to the death of Senator
Brady Of Idaho, the members are now
said to be evenly divided on the bills.
With the dispute over the war bills
reaching the senate floor, the military
committee plans to close it's inquiry
as quickly as possible.
Howard Coffin, chairman Of the
aircraft board, testifying before the
committee today in executive session,
urged q centra lized war control.
Mr. Coffin told the committee the
productive capacity of the country
could not be developed fully unless
government purchases were put into
the hands of a central agency with
full powers. A definite program of

Peru Buys American Shoes.

American shoe manufacturers now
control the market in Peru and in all
probability will continue to do SO af-
ter the war, says a report on tho
subject issued today by the bureau of
foreign and domestic commerce, de
partment Of commerce.
Peru has just emerged from O pe-
riod of prolonged economic depres-
sion and is now reaping the benefit OF
the era of high prices i'm the metal
and food products brought on by the
war. Every branch OF the agricu,-
tural and mining industries has been
correspondingly benefited, and in this
connection 1t is interesting to note
that In 1915 the value Of the agricui-
tural products exported was more
than $4,000, 900. or nearly 27 per
cent. greater than the value of the
mineral products exported. The pro-
duction of sugar mas increased enor-
mously.
The present prosperity will increase
Peru's importance as market for
American goods, for shoes as we'll as
other products. says Special Agent
Herman G. Brock. author Of the gov
ernments report. 1t is a market that
should receive as careful attention "a
our own war needs will permit. Our
Indebtedness for such essential pro-
ducts as copper and sugar should be
paid at least in part by manufacture
goods needed in Peru, and it is the
part OF wisdom to so conduct our
present business as to leave us in an
is, over.

FORD U-BOAT CHASERS.
Pians Made 10 Turn Out Maximum
Number In the Shortest Time.

Washington, Feb. 1.-Producton
plans for the navy's new anti-subma-
rine craft contemplate the delivery OF
finished boat every day when the
cycle of production is complete. The
first vessel has already been started
In the fabricating shops at the Ford
Motor Company plant at Detroit.
Construction will go by stages. To
turn out a boat day after the lapse
of several months requires that q
boat day be started. Materials that
so into construction are fed into one
end OF the plant as rapidly as it il
phnned TO produce the completed
product ut tho other. The whole num-
ber OF boats contracted for will be
under production simultaneously at
one stage.
The design was worked out to re-
duce to minimum the necessity OF
shaping plates. There are MANY fai
surfaces to the vessel and on that ac.
count bent and curved plates having
been avoided wherever possible.
The power will be furnished by
geared turbines and since stability and
reliability was sought rather than
freak performance no effort has been
ra7de tn go beyond a safe and con-
scrvative speed estimate.
The boats will all be fabricated ut
the Ford plant, progressing by stages
until they are launched at Detroit.
They will measure 200 feet and dis.
place about 900 tons.
No attempt has been made to give
the design the refnements of navy
craft built in peace times. They will
be rough. hewn into shape in the in
terest OF speed.
Military characteristics Of the de-
sign have not been disclosed.

less days a week. Monday and Wed.

been sent to all the hotels and cafes
