With all due respect to Mr..
Root, who has been a great cor
poration lawyer and was a
good Secretary of State when
it was perfectly easy to be one,
the allusion to his late mission
is not happy.
Mr.. Root went to Russia
and look at Russia today, If
the measure of the old gentle
mans greatness and fitness for
some wonderful service to the
nation today is to be taken by
the result of his Russian fiasco,
we do not know exactly where
he would fit.-Boston Post.

There is no chance for peace
until we have whipped the

some reports from Berlin and

show the enemy population is

AN URGENT REQUEST
FROM PRES. WILSON

''The reply of the German govern
ment to my note of inquiry, dated
October 9Th, gives occasion for me
to say to my fellow countrymen that
neither that reply nor any other re-
cent events have in any way dimin~
ished the vital Importance of the
Liberty Loan. Relaxation now, hest
tation now, would mean defeat when
victory seems to be in sight; would
mean years of war instead of peace
upon our own terms.
81 earnestly request every patriotic
American to leave to the Govern
ments of the United States and the
allies the momentous discussions in
itiated by Germany and to remember
that for each man his duty is to
strengthen the hand of these govern
ments and to do it in the most I'M
portant way now Immediately pre-
sented-by subscribing to the utmost
of his ability for bonds Of the Fourth
Liberty Loan. That loan must be
successful. I am sure that the
American people will not faid to see
their duty and make it successful"
The above statement from the
President needs no further word of
explanation. AS Americans and Pa
triots let us do our duty now.

CHAPLAIN
IN THE MELTING POT
Rev. Jno. Paul Tyler Is Chaplain in
France of Company Made up of
Eighteen Nationalities, Includ-
ing Many Religions.

In this country every American
worships God "under his own vine
and fig tree" but three thousand
miles from our peaceful shores, with
and accompaniment of shrieking shell
and spluttering machine guns where
green vineyards have been wrecked
and blackened by ruthless Prussian
armies, million and half Ameri-
can boys worship God according to
the dictates If their individual hearts
under one banner-the American
Flag. Contributing largely to the
courageous faith of these soldiers are
many chaplains and welfare workers
of various religious callings, but the
watch word of all these are "God and
America" and the undying spirit of
this supreme call will have much to do
with Americas Victory over Prus-
sianism.
Capt. Oliver @. Melton, Company
K, 525th Infantry, somewhere in
France" who is the undying kfikkns
France" who is the son of DIR. Wight
man F. Melton, of Emory University,
tells in an article in the Atlanta Con-
stitution how the american soldiers
feel towards religious and welfare
workers and at the same time empha-
sizes the fact that the American
Army is a veritable melting pot"
"Our regiment is made up of some
twenty or more nationalities, writes
Capt. Melton. In my company alone
there are eighteen different national
tiles represented. To be chaplain to
such a body of men is no little job.
Fully forty percent are Catholics, ten
percent Jews, and the remainder
range all the way from good old
shouting Methodist to Holy Rollers. "
Capt. Melton pays tribute to his
company chaplain, Lieut.. Jno. Paul
Tyler, of the Baltimore Methodist
Conference. Chaplain Tyler is our
friend" he says. Recently the chap
lain held services for my battalion on
the top of very high mountain.
The top fattened out into plateau

lies, Jews, Protesants and even Athe-
lists sat at his feet and listened to his
message. And his message was an
inspired ore. more than Conquer
ers," was his text.

SP|NNERS ARE NOT
BUYING COTTON
AHEAD
HAND TO MOUTH POLL
.CY KEEPS PRICE DOWN
Interesting Facts About Pea
nut Values, as Given Out
BY j. j. Brown

Atlanta, Ca, October II Especially
Important information bearing on the
cotton market and cotton crop, reach
es the State Department of Agricul-
ture from Washington. E. A. Calvin,
special representative of the Cotton
States Marketing Board, at the Natl
onal capitol, wired President j. j.
Brown as follows:
ut is reported that spinners are
adopting hand-to-mouth policy, and
will buy sparingly and only as they
are compelled to have cotton. This
with other things, will cause a limited
demand, and the farmer should meet
the situation by refusing to sell until
the spinners need the cotton and are
willing to pay fair prices for it. Far
nlers should not sacrifice cotton mere
ly because there is a combination
trying to beat the price down.
Commenting on the foregoing dis
patch, Director L. B. jackson of the
State Bureau of Market, said:
'"This Bureau endorses what Mr..
Calvin says, and urges the farmers
to follow his advice. Only by market
ing cotton gradually, can we hope to
get near it's real value. 1t would be
better still if the cotton were held in
the seed, as this will serve the double
purpose of strengthening the cotton
market and solving the acute seed
problem which is causing so much
concern, before it has opportunity to
become more acute"
Commissioner of Agriculture j. j.
Brown announces an advance in the
price of the nitrogen bacteria, now
being furnished to the farmers of the
state at actual cost by the Depart
nent, from 20 cents to 80 cents an
acre. This advance was made nee
essary on account of the increased
cost of producing the bacteria, and
even at the increased price Georgia
farmers will still get at actual cost of
manufacture to the state, and way be-
low the price in the open market.
This nitrogen bacteria has been
widely used by Georgia farmers for
treating the seed of leguminous crops,
and in practically every instance
splendid results, in increased yield,
have been obtained from it. In writ
ing the department of agriculture for
nitrogen bacteria, the crops with
which it is intended to be used should
always be stated, as it often makes
difference in the particular nature
of the bacteria to be used.
The State Bureau of Markets has
ascertained that the products made
from one ton of peanuts, at present
market prices, are worth $142.58.
The Weld is based on the results OBJ
tanned from the 1917 crop, as these
are the only figures now available
but the value is figured at present
market prices. According to this
basis ton of peanuts will yield So
10 gallons of oil worth $1.36 per
gallon, or total Of $113.02, and
1875 pounds of ~ peanut meal,
worth $500 ger ton, or $29.56,
making the total above stated. This
will no doubt prove very interesting
information to Georgia farmers who
are preparing to harvest peanut crops
this fall.

KIDNEY DISEASE Is FATAL

When disease gets into the kidneys
it is just scertain to take a person
off as leprosy, unless it ischecked be-
fore it goes too far. If people just
knew the danger that lurked in dis
eases of these delicate organs they
would be as careful of them as they
are of their eyes. People who have
sound kidneys should know how to
protect and take care of them. Kid
neco is a sure remedy for treating
kidney diseases because it removes
the poisons.,hat collect in the blood
through the inactive kidneys.
Just go to any drug store and get
about a dozen Kidneco Tablets. They
are inexpensive and will relieve your

SIKESTON MILLING CO
HOLDS new RECORD
Heads Mills Of The Country In
Production OF Corn Meal
This Year

Sikeston, Mo-, June 14.-The Scott
County Milling Company, operating
here one of the largest flour mills of
the State, has established a record
during the last year. In 1917 the
Scott County Milling Company ex-
ported more corn products, which in
cluded grits, cream and pearl meal,
than any other mill in the United
States. About 100000 barrels of all
classes of all products were shipped
during that time.
1t has been generally believed that
the corn products would not ship to
foreign countries and be sweet when
it arrived, but the Scott County Mill
ing Company has proven that such
is not the case. The amount of mois-
ture in the. products was reduced
from 13 per cent, as formerly, to 10
per cent and every one of their pro-
ducts arrived in foreign countries in
the very choicest condition.
Vita the increased use of corn and
its products it is believed that this
years output of the mill will largely
exceed that of the previous year.
