He was fourth exhibition cockereI

cockerels in his class. Owned by W.

They are active birds, largely non-sit-

close confinement.
The Mediterranean breeds are Leg

type and noted for the large number
Of eggs they lay.
The Leghorns are typical and the
most popular of this group. They are
hardy; feathers lay snugly to the
body; weight is three to five
pounds.
The American races contain what Is
generally known as general purpose

would not be supplied for dog con-
sumption at his hosiery.
MANY sweets and meats and milk
are purchased for blooded dogs, he
said, in explanation. This food is
needed here and by the allies. Even
the bones that are given to dogs are
in demand.

so, the problem will be solved, but un-

Demonstrate Possibility
of Obtaining Potash From
Chilean Nitrate Fields

Some of the profits made in NUM-
lions by Americans in the last three
years is being put to good use in I'M
covering new resources to aid our pro-
duction and establish independence
from German domination, says Finan-
cial America. One essential of which
our farms stand most in need is pot
ASH Germany is the possessor of the
worlds largest known deposits. Our
crops have long suffered for the want
of this plant food with German ports
all closed. German leaders boast that
they will force commercial concessions
from America in return for potash
after the war.
To relieve this situation comes the
news that the Du Pont interests operat-
ing in the Chilean nitrate fields have
demonstrated the possibility of extract
ing potash in large and profitable
quantities from nitrate ores. This
opens new source Of supply in the
field that also produces the chief ma
terial in explosives, which is also an
other essential plant food, that is, nj
trate.
The Du Pont company has performed
patriotic service at this time in CIV
ing the secret of its processes to the
allied and neutral countries operating
plants in Chile. All are strengthened
against the common enemy of mankind
and one more club for the neutrals is
lost to the Prussian.

himself still. the military genius of old,
starvation forced his retreat.
And so it will be in all ages and
for all times A well-nourished body
means victory, whether in civilian or
military pursuits, while hungry per-
son can neither fight nor work.
This country has been asked to save
wheat, meat, fats and sugar. Why ?
Wheat is the grain most easily trans
ported. 1t takes up less space and
does not spoil Europe knows nothing
of handling cornmeal, and, even if she
did, it would do her no good, because
corn easily spoils. Wheat does not.
The sugar shortage in Europe has been
caused by lack of transportation, hence
it is up to America to get this neces-
sary food to them In our own ships and
from our own supplies.
Fats are vital in making ammunition,
such as nitroglycerin, and in keeping
the soldiers in neutrality-suspicious. food.
The chief reason why so much stress
is laid upon the saving of pork is be-
cause it is the easiest kept and con-
tains nourishment and fat. Pork prod
ucts, such as bacon and hams and
shoulders, may be kept for an indefi-
mite period, whereas other meats will
spoil unless they are kept upon ice.
Refrigerator ships cannot be had, ex-
cept in limited numbers, hence it is de-
sirable to transport only those supplies
which take up the least cargo space
and with the minimum risk of spelling.
No man or woman in this country
would refuse a starving person a slice
of bread, but this is, indirectly, what
we are doing. The allies are holding
back the German hordes while the
American armies are preparing. Yet
these people are in want; their chill
dren are suffering from lack of proper
foods and if we refuse to give up
some of our pleasures of taste that
theft sufferings may be relieved. we
are placed in the same position as one
who has plenty yet will not give to
the hungry.

American Mills Are Urged
to Manufacture Peanut OH;
Good Market for By-ProduCts

It is possible with the use OF I'M
proved machinery for cleaning, she'll
ing and pressing peanuts, to make a
high grade of oil in American mills
which is well suited for use in cook
ing, according to the United States de-
partment of agriculture. Before the
war cut off practically all imports of
French and Dutch peanut oils, the
United States was importing nearly
100000 gallons year at an average
price for all grades, including soap
stock. of more than half that of
edible olive OIL Specialists of the de-
partment state that American oil mills
should prepare to make this oil at
home both to utilize the large peanut
crop and to increase their profits.
Peanut oil mills, the specialists, say,
should be located where the farmers
can profitably grow the Spanish type
of peanuts, which are high in oil con-
tent and have less shell than the larger
Virginia varieties. The mills should
be equipped with peanut cleaners, and
all the nuts, after going over screens
to remove the stocks, stones and other
trash. should be thoroughly scoured'
For the by-products obtained in the
manufacture of peanut oil there is a.
growing" market especially for the
press cake, which stockmen now real
ize is a very high-grade cattle feed.
There is also demand for flour made
from hull-less peanut cake for human
food, and there is no reason why it
should not become popular article
In human sustenance. the specialists
say. Eg-
With the manufacture of high-grade
peanut oil for cooking and shortening,
the manufacture of hull-less peanut
cake for human food and peanut-hull
cake for stock feed, the millers can
utilize all of the peanut crop to best
advantage.

PRAYER OF THE ARMY MEN

AT the going, when we stumble up the
gangway to the ship,
While we wish, and curse the wish, that
we could stay;
On the channel as we watch the yearn-
ing cliffs of England dip. ~
Help US, Lord, to hide our sackened hearts
away! as
On the rnarches-oh' the marches with
the blisters on our feet,
When our kits weigh not much less than
half ton,
And our one idea of heaven is a place to
sleep and eat
Give US strength, Lord, sill our thirty
miles are done!
Through the weary, starlit vigils when we
guard the sleeping tents,
When they huddle gray behind us In the
gloom,
Bid us challenge every phantom that our
fear of death invents;
Keep your ears alert to hear the creep
ing doom!
In the trenches, with the buIlet-ridden
earthworks squirting dust,
And the peering rifle muzzles splitting
flame;
In the sweating bayonet charges. with the
thrust and wrench and thrust,
Hear us when we, dying. cali upon Thy
name
In the winning, in the losing, in the
triumph, the despair,
Be we victors or the holders of defeat,
Keeps us mindful of the honor of ma
ton that we bear;
Let our souls. Lord be above the fate. we
meet!

Do Not Hoard Canned Foods
if You Have a Large Supply

What difference a long row of
canned foods in your fruit closet makes
in your state of mind.
1t answers the question, "What am I
going to have for dinner tonight and
how am / going to get it?" It also
does away with the terrors of the un-
expected guest. Your problem is
solved, the row of canned foods has
simplified life for you.
Last summer the entire country was
smitten with the healthy contagion of
canning. Women who had always. deli
cately avoided even speaking Of what
went on in their kitchens, rolled up
their sleeves and spent hours studying
and putting into effect the "cold pack"
method, other women who generally
only preserved" last summer canned
vegetables, meats, soups and, some Of
them, even fish.
Now that we have all this canned
foodstuff on hand, don't hoard, use it,

Lord OF the Sun and Moon,
Great Magician and Great

The youthful shah of Persia has an

poetical attributes as 1.-The Rose of De-

1.-The Mirror of Virtue" while his ma

as Emperor of Arracan, possessor of
the white elephant and the two ear
rings, and in virtue of this possession
legitimate heir of Pegu and Brahma !
Lord of the twelve kings who place
their heads under his feet"
Somewhere in the wilds of Afghanis-
tan there is an Ameer who boasts of as
many high dignities as there are days
in the year, among them being:
1.-The sovereign of the universe, whom
God created to be as accomplished as
the moon at her plenitude; whose eye
glitters like the northern star; king
as spiritual as ball is round, who,
when he rises, shades all of his people,
and from under whose feet a sweet
odor is waited" But perhaps the most
remarkable title any monarch was ever
proud to own was borne by the king of
Monomotapa, whose praises were sung
by his court poets and musicians as
Lord of the Sun and Moon, Great Ma
gician and Great Thief"
Another striking example of royal
dignity is that of the former emperor
of China, whose recent coup .d'etat
ended in such failure. He was hailed
by his subjects as "The protector of
religion, whose fame is infinite andeof
surprising excellence exceeding the

Homemade Solution Makes
!. PasteurIzed Cream Whip.

People who use pasteurized cream
often have trouble in getting their
cream to whip. This is due to the
substance called viscogen, being de-
stroyed by heating. This trouble can
easily be remedied by adding a small
amount of homemade viscogen, which
can be prepared as follows.
First dissolve two and half parts
sugar in five parts water.
Second. dissolve one part of quick
lime in three parts water.
Mix the two solutions and let stand
few hours. Siphon off, or pour or,
the clear liquid, and what is left Is
an excellent substitute for viscogen,
which with proper care, will keep
for long time. Use about tea
spoonful for a pint Of cream.
