A farmer may use his own cot
ton seed for fertilizing his land for
wheat In other words, there is no
specific law against such action On
his part, but we have been earnestly
requested by the food administration
to discourage this practice because
it results in the wasting of the oil
contained in the seed, which amounts
to about AZ or more gallons per ton.
The oil is a most valuable and es-
sential human food at this time, as
it supplies the needed fat for which
the world is suffering at present.
The oil is of no value as a plant
food. consisting entirely of carbo-
hydrates. Therefore, the food admin ;
istration has asked every loyal and
patriotic citizen of our country TO
see that every pound of available
and essential food is saved and made
of service to our war industries, our
local population, and the population
of our fighting allies. 1t is desir-
able. therefore, that in so far as pos
sible you discourage the direct use
of cotton seed as fertilizer for the
reason set forth.

One of the troubles of the peanut
grower in the south, as you doubt
less know, is the considerable per-
centage of pops which he ordinarily
produces. This is due almost entire
" to the absence OF a proper amount
OF lime in his soil, a condition which
can be remedied by the use Of ra-
tional amounts of crushed raw lime
rock. Our belief Is that 1t Will pay
the average peanut grower who eX-
meets TO specialize i'm the production
Of this crop TO apply not less than
one ton Of lime rock every third
year. There may be cases, Of course,
where every fifth year will answer.

present il should be used every third

THANKSGIVING

Never in the history of the word
has there been such a time for uni-
versal thanksgiving. Day unto day
uttereth speech, and night unto night
sheweth knowledge" can be said of
these times quite as truly aS ii can
be said that the earth is the Lord ;
and the fullness thereof,
Many thousands have gone up TO
the house Of the Lord and in their
anguish Of heart, i'm their grief over
separation from sons and husbands
have asked how long, oh, God, VIII
this cruelty continue? And to many
the "still. small Voice" has given
peace and confidence. There have
been many protesting Christians, the
sort that forget that we must never
be cast down nor discouraged, the
sort that draw down the corners or
their mouths and look solemn and
say, 1.-The Germans are sure to come
over here and revenge themselves
for our interference-we should have
let them alone" the sort who forget,
or have never read the Ola Tesla
ment. and think of nothing but ma
terial things at Thanksgiving time.
Get your Bibles and read LIST ana
I'd Kings. See how God spoke
through his prophets and let the

pfe. Did he tell them to sit still and
be made slaves? Not once. Ana

when Ben-hadad sent the threaten;
ing message to the king of Israel
and received this answer: Let not
him that girdeth on his harness
boast himself as he that puetteth 1t
off"
And it might be well for all these
pacifists to read the goth chapter or
First Kings and see how. God eau
toned the king of Israel that the
Syrians would return. The king lis

fear I shrank back from him involun-
tarily putting up my arm before my
face.
Dicky gave a short, ugly laugh, and
there was an utter silence for B. mo-
ment. When / looked at him again
his face was drained of color, and the
fury had left his eyes.
"I--Beg-Pardon.'
This is no good business, Madee,"
he said in a curious, almost mechani
cal voice. You ought to know I'm
not the kind of a man who would
strike a woman, but I suppose If I
get SO angry that you're afraid I might
it amounts to the same thing. If I
frightened you I sincerely beg your

There was but one thing for NE to
do and do instantly. I saw that for
Dicky's self-respect and mine I
mustn't let him think that I imag ined
he might give me a blow.
'Dicky, don't be idiotic!' I said
sharply. You didn't frightsn me in
the least. But-frankly-I don't like

NEWARk'S ROUGING
CENSORS GET BUSY
PoliceWomen Guard Town Against
Cheeks That Bloom Too Much

Newark, n. J., Nov. 30.-Two New
Park Place station, the Pennsylvania
station, and the Public Service termi
nal in Newark last night, overaWed
them by a display Of their police
badges, and forced them to wash
rouge and powder from their faces.
This was done under orders issued
by Police Inspector Thomas j. Cor
bally, who said last night that he
derived his authority for this proceed
ure from the common law.
Four terror-strickerI girls had been
forced, up to II o'clock last night, to
restore their natural tints. Six COM
plexions were unmade OH Thursday
night, when the decree was first Is
sued under Inspector CorDally's read
ing of the common law, som etines
referred to as the sum of human wis
dom.
Now go right back and wash your
face" said Mrs. Margaret T. Dugan,
one of the policewomen, when a girl
about 16 years old emerged from the
Woman's rest room at one Of the sta
tons, with cheeks a shade more
blooming than ten centuries of Anglo
Saxon jurisprudence would allow, un-
der the opinion of the Newark eX-
FOUNDER.
The girl was inclined to rebel until
she saw the sparkling metal badge
of authority. She went quietly, with
some tears while the policewoman
stood by and saw that the spots were
attacked with the yigor of Lady
Macbeth. Other girls went through
the same process meekly until the un-
constitutional color was removed, and
then hastily left the stations.
The second discrimination against
this conspicuous color which has
taken place in large cities within two
weeks, was inspired, according to In
spector CORDIALLY, by the fact that the
well-being of Newark has been
menaced recently by invasions from
New York and other places by girls
with dangerous compilations, also be-
cause some Newark girls, whose
parents forbid cosmetics put on their
makeup III the rest rooms at the
stations, make their public appearance
in color and then disarm themselves
at the same place before returning
home.

mon law said Inspector CORDIALLY.

His voice held cold determination
finality. I knew the issue couldn't be
postponed much longer. But how /
longed for Lillian! I wondered
"Dicky," I pleaded, turning to him,
I'm going to very frank with you.
Lillian has been 'meddling' as you no
doubt put it, and 1 have helped her,
because I realized that the thing she
was doing was the only thing to be
done under the circumstances. And
I have only one request to make Of
you. Won't you please ask Lillian
herself about it? If I telephone her
now she'll be here within two or three
hours. Then, I promise, you shall
know everything. And it really isn't
fair either to Lillian or to me for me
to tell YOU"
"Of course the question of what is
fair to me doesn't enter into the mat
ter at ALL Dicky commented 'dryly.
But go ahead, get Lii out here if you
want to. She's a, good old scout and
an old friend, but I've got few words
