ghter Of MT. and Mrs. George New bern, has knit six sweaters for our Red Cross. The Hy-We-Sus Camp Fire Girls are completing a beautiful knitted wool blanket for our soldier boys and expect to have it ready to 80 forward with our next shipment.
 Under the direction of Miss Mamie Johnson the little girls and boys, pupils of her room, have made several thousand gun wipers and shot bags for our soldiers.
 Even the little children are anxi- ous to help win the war The men in our training camps and aboard trans ports and stationed somewhere in France are being safeguarded as American soldiers never before were looked after, as regards wholesome food, proper sanitation, prevention of disease and moral guidance.
 And to say it is the duty of the stalwart men and women to keep the home fires burning during the supreme ordeal now at hand. We must raise the crops, speed the fact.
 
 ories. collect the taxes, organize the home guards. conserve wheat and meat and sugar, back up the Red Cross, peddle the Liberty bonds, write the letters, pack the comfort kits and stand ready to do your part at all times. Think of our American boys in the trenches somewhere in France and of those who must soon go overseas Think of our surgeons and our Red Cross nurses, who sleep with their gas masks beside their beds-when they get time to sleep at all, for they are on duty for just as long as efficiency will permit. They are often in the wet. They are generally in the cold. and still they are cheerful, obedient, brave and content. How thankful we should be that so far we have escaped the awful sufferings and the tortures that our. allies have suffered And with heads bowed low, thank God for our noble young American man. hood who are making the supreme sacrifice for God and their country The man or the woman today who is not willing and ever ready to do his or her part to help win this war is not worthy to be called an Ameri can citizen.

The problems which are presenting themselves are numerous and diffi- cult Problems which would ordinarily srise in peace times are now enlarged by the absence of ons or 4,ore of the hiemLe:s of the family and are made more complicated by war conditions. Not only is relief needed in many cases, but prompt advice and informa- ton is of tremendous concern to these families. Mails would be flooded, the work of military and federal authori- ties would be hampered. and families would be in anxiety and distress were it not for the fact that Home Service Sections of the Red Cross have cstab- lished an information service 10 an- swer ell questions. Among other things. they are equipped with ac- curate information regarding the rates of pay of various classes of enlisted men. the proper form of addressing mail to them, the condition of dis

A GOOD POTATO CROP

Here is how l raised 330 bushels of Irish potatoes on 1 3-4 acres of land last year. had sown this land in clover and alfalfa. had cut 1t one year, covered it in the fall with stable manure, plowed it in Febru- ary, narrowed it well and planted the last days of March. l cut the potatoes one eye in piece as near as could. furrowed the land off four feet apart with a throwing blow as deep as could, dropped two pieces to the hill as close as could be worked, l guess about 20 inches apart Covered with hoe, about 3 hoefulls of dirt to the hill. Culti- vated twice before they could be hood. I laid them by as early as l could and planted corn with a one horse corn drill between the rows, hoed this corn twice keeping 1t clean. The corn made fine roasting ears and came in fine to start the hogs and feed milch cows in the late fall. Southern Agricultnrist.

 How to Care fer Pecan Trees.
 Pecan orchards should be kept cul- tivated, and for the first few years of their growth the orchard may be i'm tercropped. using truck crops or any of the farm crops that do not inter fere with the growth of the trees. It should be remembered, however, that it does not pay to get closer than four to i've feet of the young trees with an intercrop. and as the trees grow older the distance must be in. creased from the trees. The question is often asked how old pecan trees are before they begin to bear. Here no definite answer can be made, but usually few nuts are borne in from for to five years after the trees are planted. provided trees are three to four years old when they are set. have known trees to reach an age of ten to twelve years before beginning to bear. The fact that it takes the trees so long to come into bearing is one of the principal reasons why the trees are not more generally planted. It should be remembered. however. that after an orchard once reaches bearing age 1t is ordinarily good for long period of years. Pecan trees seldom pay any profit until they are

of the Western Front

Apportlonment Of the Western Front.
By next year there will be, roughly
speaking, a million British. million
French, and million American troops
on the Western Front, holding clearly
distinct sectors, although under closely
coordinated direction. And when this
situation arrives, the Germans will be
completely outnumbered on each sector
and for the balance of the war con-
demned to face superior numbers with
weaker forces on the line and incom-
parably weaker reserves behind it..
This, IN work, is the general scheme
of the Western Front, when we arrive
in full strength, and it is toward the
realization of this scheme that we have
now made the first move in definitely
taking over one sector, probably very
small one, of the line between st.
