WEEDS SOLDIER BOY

Mrs. Minnie Richardson Turley,
Of this city. and Private Lewis 0.
Myers, of Camp Zachary Taylor,
were married in Winchester Friday,
Dec. 81, Rev. J. w. Harding officiat-
ing. The wedding is of much inter
est in this county where both are
well known and widely connected.
The groom is son of Mr.. T. O.
Myers, of this county, and was
drafted for military service in the
FIRST Montgomery contingent and
has since been stationed at Camp
Taylor He is a young man of
many admirable traits and has
made a splendid record in khaki.
His bride is a daughter of County
Jailer John F. Richardson and is
the widow of the late William Tur-
ley. She wall continue to make her
home here while her soldier hus-
band is in the service. We join in
rendering best wishes.

They were not prepared to take
care of us at the Arsenal so we
spent the night in the Pullmans and
went out to the Arsenal next morn
ing. Let me draw the curtain on
the scene for it makes me shiver to
think of the four nights spent in
the Barracks there trying to keep
warm with two blankets and can
vas cot, while the mercury lowered
around Zero. But after all there's
many a poor fellow who would be
thankful for even that much.
"Watervliet is just across the
Hudson from Troy, N. Y, and is un-
doubtedly the coolest place in the
World. When / left there Friday
morning-ten days ago-the River
was frozen over so that it reminded
me very much of the Klondike reg
ions. But after all it's mighty
fine place in which to spend few
days, for getting to it and coming
from it takes one up and down the
hudson; a very worthwhile trip.
We went up on the west side and
came down on the east. We were
afforded a splendid view of Vassar
College on the Cup trip" and an
fine one Of West Point Mill
tary Academy from the east side
of the River.
''The scenery is very rugged, fur
nishing ideal sites for all the '0n
the Hudson schools, and for the
palaces Of some Of
our Country's mult-milhonaires.
We were told that one Of these
places is an exact reproduction of
one Of the castles on the Rhine; ]

"Many of you will remember DIR.
Earle Whitley, who held series of
meetings at the Christian church
four years ago. had the very
happy privilege of meeting him this
afternoon and answering his in
quiries in regard to some of his Mt.
Sterling friends. DR.. Wiley pre-
sided at meeting addressed by the
Hon. Henry VanDyke, the noted
writer and former Minister to Meth
erlands. The meeting was held un-
Ger the auspices of the District
War Service Commission and it is
indeed rare that one hears such a
wonderful address. He opened his
speech with this very significant
statement: eve have hard task
before us" Continuing he said eff
this war is to be won The conscience
of this country must be aroused to
its very foundations to the. whole
duty and to the realization that we
are fighting righteous war" In
the course of his address he showed
in the clearest possible manner
that the Gedmans not only planned
this war but forced it upon the
world DIR. VanDyke was upon
the scene Of action at the outbreak

carry conviction.

DEMAND FOR MEN WITH
SCIENTIFIC TRAINING GREAT

Secretary of War Newton D.
Baker urges men in scientifil insti-
buttons to continue their training.
"The Government service will de-
mand more and more scientifically
trained men," said he, "and l hope
those who are in charge of scien-
tific institutions will impress upon
the young men the Importance of
continuing their studies, except to
the extent that they are necessarily
interrupted by a mandatory call
under the provisions of the selec-
tive-service law"
Every effort will be made to use
each students special training in
connection with specialized occupa-
tons in the Army, to afford techni-
cal students liable to call as great
an opportunity through the National
Army as if they had enlisted.

Uncle Sam is taking care of his

FEED THE SOFT CORN

Farmers in the frost-stricken dis
tricts of the corn belt are urged by
Joseph p. Cotton, head Of the U. S.
Food Administration meat division,
at Chicago, to save the soft corn
and feed it to livestock. Organi-
cation of farmers TO equalize ship
ping receipts at the larger livestock
markets is also recommended.
"The extent Of the damage done
to the great corn crop" said Mr..
Cotton, twill make the market
problem for soft corn an important
one. In the judgment of the meat
division the best way to market this
corn will be in the form of meat.
The world situation promises extra
ordinary opportunities to hog grow
ers, and the Food Administrators
price policy for the spring farTow-
ed crop of swine should be an add
ed incentive"
"The government program for in
creased production and saving of
the soft corn and feeding it are in
harmony, and every bushel of soft
corn thus utilized is an aid to win
ming the war"
In line with the United States
Food Administrations program of
increasing the production of pork
and as means of utilizing the
large quantities of soft corn in
Ohio, N. E. Shaw, secretary of the
State Department of Agriculture
and DIR. Theo. A. Burnett, chief of
the bureau of live stock industry
have announced a plan whereby
feeder and stocker hogs can be
shipped from Cincinnati stockyards
to farmers in Ohio for feeding
purposes.
Instead of permitting the slaugh-
ter of hogs at 100, this plan will en-
able farmers to put them on the
market at 800 pounds. On account
of the great amount of soft corn in
the hands of farmers in Ohio there
is great demand for this size hog.
This corn cannot be marketed.
Stockyard hogs are always more
liable to infection from cholera
but the state has taken every pre-
caution against the spread Of the
cholera through the distribution of

"Washingon, d. c."

TIE hussiar Bolsheviki seem to
have been handed lemon in the
German peace proposals. The
Kaiser's government modestly de-
handed control of the Russian
whea market for Il period of fifteen
years, that she retain all Russian
territory now occupied by her
troops, aud that all German-made
goods be imported into Russia duty
free. Doubtless there were few
minor concessions she would Lave
also, lat she hoped 70 have no
trouble in securing these when she
had her victim securely tied. But
even a Bolshevikl has glimmer ngs
of reason and the proposition was
not received with enthusiasm.

CHRISTMAS QUIET DAY

Christmas passed off very quiet
ly in Mt Sterling, owing largely to
the fact that a blizzard ragged
throughout most of the day and
the thermometer dropped to the
neighborhood of zero. Services
we're held in all the churches as
usual and several organizations
had Christmas trees for the young
sters. Local business houses re-
pvt unprecedented sales on Satur-
day and Monday and many state
that this seasons business was the
largest in. their history. Big
crowds splashed through the rain
and mud doing their shopping, but
the Indictment weather did not seem
to deter them.
