Employees of the Pensacola Shipbuild-

a number of them, felt the heat of the

and We're removed to the city for treat

Friday, the hottest day OF the year,
and when record high temperature
was recorded, the ice supply was ex-
hausted at the plant and it was neces-
sary for the workmen to drink the
warm water from the city supply.
There is usually an abundance of ice
on hand there, but the excessively
warm weather caused it to melt more
rapidly than usual, with the result that

SAVING OF FUEL IN POWER PLANTS

It is estimated by the conservation bureau of
the United States Fuel Administration that
saving of 100000 tons of coal can be accom-
plished in the 100000 plants in the country. A
epoIt made public by the conservation bureau
last week shows saving at the rate of $4,000
tons of coal annually through the system of in
spection put in practice in 300 of the larger
plants of the country.
The saving thus accomplished has put money
in the pockets of the plant owners and at the
same time made available large amount of coal
for war needs and for heating homes next winter.

Horse beans. because OF their
quality and high-feeding value,
should be grown much more extens-

Farmers Bulletin 96s, recently pub

ment of agriculture. Their value,
according TO the belletin. has long
been known in the old world where
from ancient time they have been
grown as a Vegeta bile. a forage and
green manure crop. In some sec
tons of this country, particularly
the Pacific coast states, the large
tlat-seeded varieties are produced in
home gardens and are used either
green. dried or canned as a vegetable
much the same as any of the more
common beans. Although their use
as a stoS1 feed has been limited in

Horse beans are not very exacting
as TO soil requirements. but do best
on well-drained, heavy-lOam or clay
loan soil. A good supply OF mois-

crop requires practically the

the enemy great opportunity for

New Roulers Drive.
Extension Of the Franco-Belgian
drive north Of Gen. Plumer's line,
however. would permit the British
commander to move forward to the
southeast in a wide encircling move
ment. For that reason il is thought
a new drive is to be anticipated on
the Roulers front with large French
or British forces supplementing the
work of the Belgian armies. II has
been reported already that an en-
tire French army has been shifted
to this front.
The evacuation of Lens fore
shadows the early fall of Douai, al

grand strategy OF Marshal Foch

prevailed along the Lens front up

commander is today realizing the
full success of that plan.
Evacuation Not Planned.

this barrier on the flank to be held

DEFENDS LOWER BIRTH RATE
Writer in Leading Scottish Publication
Sees No Cause for Alarm in
Its Continuance.

This is the rule of evolution-fewer
and more careful parental care. Wher-
ever one looks in the animal kingdom
he finds that rule working, writer in
the Edinburgh Review points out.
Among fishes, species that exhibit
no sort Of parental care, the average
of 40 gives 100000 eggs to a female
each year; while among those which
make nests or any apology for nests
the number is only about 10000.
Coming down through human history
Among savage or semicivilized peoples
the birthrate is very high. as is also
the deathrate through enemies and dis
ease. But, as fast as civilization makes
it's influence felt. the result is seen in
a lowered birthrate, accompanied by
better care of the fewer children who
are born.
Havelock Ellis recently pointed out
that the nations in Europe which were
most ready and eager for war-Ger-
many, Russia, Serbia, Austria-are the
countries of highest birthrate. and
hence of greatest economic pressure.
And he adds: 'ThOse who would seek
to restore the birthrate of half cen
fury age are engaged in a task which
would be criminal if It were not based
on ignorance and which is in any case
fatuOus."

PUT MOON BACK IN THE SKY

Once upon day, once upon time,
Nasr Eddin Hodja called TO his wife:
"Hanum Hanum Come and see 4;

She ran, and. looking into the ws:l,
sure enough, she saw the moon float
ing on the wafer.
What shall we do" he asked, "to
get it out?"
II was sad thing to lose the moon
down the well. She rubbed her head to
think better, and finally said:
Il will bring you a hook and rope,
and you can pull it out"
This she did and the hodja let the
rope down into the water and pulled.
The hook, catching on a stone, would
not come up easily, and so he pulled,
pulled, pulled.
Suddenly the stone gave way and
the hodja fell backward to the ground.
As he looked up to the sky, he saw the
moon i'm the heavens.
