There are doubtless many farmers
right among US who feel that the
agitation for a very safe acreage In
cotton will have a general effect in the
direction desired, and they have forth.
with made up their minds to increase
their own planting, using the old fal.
lacy, that they will profit as one of the
few large cotton producers, and there.
fore one Of the few buyers of cheap
corn.
The reasons for being ultra cautious
in our distribution of crops for 1918 are
manifold. We have no guarantee that
a favorable year is ahead of US. There.
fore we cannot forecast the price limits
of bread-making cereals. Meat is al
ready so high that it is we'll nigh un-
safe to furnish it to labor, and we are
not sure it will not mount still higher.
1t is not impossible that the south will
face an embargo on food shipments out
of the middle west, due to military use
of railroads, or mayhap also a general
food shortage at home and abroad. 1t
is not unthinkable that our 1918 crop of
cotton cannot be moved readily and will
therefore have no more than trifling
market value. II any or a combination
of these conditions appear. the south
will indeed know poignant suffering.
Cotton at thirty cents is alluring. It
is indeed such "stuff as dreams are
made Of" Half close your practical
eyes, you who sit pages at the feet of
the great white king. and dream. You
are transported with him to castles of
marble and chalcedony. You lie basking
in the lap Of affiuence, while she fans
you under the spell of poppy leaves, and
as you lazily gaze ppon the old king, 10!
his great white locks have taken on the
hue and simmer of gold.
But suddenly the traders coming out
Of the north. their clustering iron trans
ports laden with burden of food, are
checked. Then, oh what pangs harass
the bellies of King Cotton's pages, and
the old king himself loses the robust
color Of gold and turns back pale and
white.
Naked indeed people may live. but
food they must have or die.
Getting back out of dreams, let Us be
practical and safe, instead of visionary
and perhaps sorry. Make sure of plenty
corn, molasses. peas, potatoes, hogs,
etc., then look to cotton.
II we have bountiful supply Of food,
and 1t so happens that cotton has lin
tied market, we can store the cotton
against better times, live at home out Of
our own cribs, bins, COW lots and gar
dens, make the old clothes do service
for another year and be content. How
shall we bring about the proper and
safe limitation Of cotton planting? !

Darker Gray, Faded Hair
with Sage Tea.

Grandmother kept her hair beauu-
fully darkened, glossy and attractive
with brew of Sage Tea and Sulphur.
Whenever her hair took on that dull,
faded or streaked appearance. this sim
pie mixture was applied with wonder
full effect. BY asking at any drug
store for "Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur
Compound" you will get a large bot
tie Of this old-time recipe, improved
by the addition of other ingredients, all
ready to use, at very little cost. This
simple mixture can be depended upon
to restore natural color and beauty to
the hair.
A well-known downtown druggist
says everybody uses Wyeth's Sage and
Sulphur Compound now because 1t
darkens so naturally and evenly that
nobody can tell it has been applied
it's so easy to use, too. You simply
dampen a comb or soft brush and
draw it through your hair, taking one
strand at a time. BY morning the
gray hair disappears; after another
application or two, it is restored to its
natural color and looks glossy, soft
and beautiful. This preparation is a
delightful toilet requisite. It is not in
tended for the cure, mitigation or pre-
vention Of disease.

Salvation Army, $3,500,OOO.
THE difference between subscribing
to the United War Work Fund and the
Liberty Loan should be also under
stood. Subscribing to the Liberty
Loan when stripped of its patriotic
elements, is strictly an investment.
Subscribing to the United War Work
Fund is giving outright. The Liber-
Loan buys food and clothing and
guns and ammunitions for the light
,rs. The United War Work Fund, as
somebody has said, buys the smiles.
Its sole object is to furnish entertain
ment, comforts, conveniences. diver
sionds, and relaxation for the fighting
men; in other words to lends a touch
of home life in the camps and at the
front. The fund furnishes those thou
sand and one things which the gov
eminent does not furnish.
THE United War Work Fund is to
furnish your boy with a warm hut,
with hot food and hot drink when
he comes out of the trenches in these
winter months; it is to furnish him
with stationery on which to write
home; it is to furnish him with bar
chocolate when the fight is thick and
his company kitchen is miles away;
it is to furnish him with a real smoke
if he smokes; it is to furnish him
with music and singing and good de-
cent entertainment in his spare mo-
ments; it is to furnish him with base
ball and football and other sports,
and to make him happy and keep
youth and laughter with hm; to
furnish him with an agreeable place
to meet his friends when they visit
him at camp; it is to furnish him with
good books and magazines-the scope
is unlimited.
All these are things which the boys
who are fighting for us are entitled
to, and l know the people of this coun-
ty are not going back on the boys
who marched away from here not so
long since and many of whom have
already acquitted Themselves with
glorious bravery in battle"
