ELDRIDGE-.FRANC

One of the prettiest events of the
season was the marriage Of Miss
jeanette Arthur Eldridge to Mr..
Harry Lee Francis at Paint Lick
Presbyterian church, last evening at
eight O'Clock
The church was beautiful with its
decoration Of white clematis and
ferns which were banked to form an
altar around which tall cathedral
tapers were burning. The pews
were marked with clematis, tied with
tulle and white satin.
The first to enter the church were
the four groomsmen. Messrs o. 7.
Wallace, Of Wilmington. N. C., Rob-
ert Walker, Miller Lackey and Rob-
ert kinnaird, who came slowly in
pairs on opposite aisles and stood in
front Of the altar while the others Of
the wedding party entered. Slowly
from each side came the four brides
maids. First came Misses Isabel
West and Annabel Burnside who
crossed in front of the altar and
took their places opposite each
other. The next to follow were
Misses Elizabeth Gibbs and Mary
May Walker. These girls wore love-
ly dresses of green satin and tulle,
with short wells of green tulle. and
carried sheaves of white lilies. Next
the matron Of honor, Mrs. Rufus
Isle, Of Lexington. entered alone,
dressed in white and silver. with sill
yer lace hat, and carrying boquet
Of Mrs. Ward roses. Following her.
came the maid Of honor. the brides
sister, Miss Elizabeth Eldridge, who
wore IA dress of pink tulle and taffeta
and carried pink lilies.
At the same time, on the opposite
aisle, the groom entered with his best
man, Mr.. Salem Wallace. of Lexing-
ton. Following the maid of honor,
was the little flower girl, Miss Eliza
beth Barnes, of Columbia. South
Carolina, who was dainty and lovely
in white organdie and green tulle.
She carried AN exquisite French has
ket filed with rose petals which she
strewed in the path Of the bride.
The bride entered the church on
the arm Of her brother, Mr.. John
Eldridge, and met her betrothed at
the altar, where the solemn ceremony
was said by the brides father, Rev
erend William Mosely Eldridge.
The bride was unusually lovely in
her beautiful gown Of embroidered
white Georgette crepe, with satin
court train and tulle veil caught with
orange blossoms.
As the bridal party approached
the altar and during the ceremony
the sweet music Of the harp and two
violins added much to the happy oc-
casion and was furnished by Miss
Telford. who played the harp, and
Misses Deatherage the violins.
After the ceremony, many of the
guests went to the brides home for
an informal reception, before the
bride and groom left for a short trip
of week or ten days.

MOBILIZE THE FARMER

Prof. A. Nj. Ten Eyck, who was
for so many years connected with the
Kansas Agricultural College, and
who, since leaving there, has been in
ed with one of the large implement
manufacturing companies, in writing
on the need of modifying agriculture
to increase food production, says that
on the whole there has not been
enough change in farm practice TO
sufficiently increase food production,
and that in his opinion some more
definite policy must be adopted, The
propaganda carried on by the Depart
ment of Agriculture, the state aSri-
cultural colleges, the business men S
organizations, ETC.. has had a good
effect in developing patriotism and
a proper public spirit, but has not
brought about the increase that we
must have.
Prof. Ten Eyck thinks that We
must go about the matter in more
definite way, and suggests that as
the various counties are organized
into farmers associations, individual
farmers should be asked to enter in
to an agreement to SOW so many
acres of wheat or other grain, and to
agree to keep and breed a certain
number of brood sows. He thinks
that in all counties where there is a
farm improvement association and a
county agent, there will be no diff
Guilty in getting signatures to an
agreement of this kind, and that
most of those who sign it will stand
by ii absolutely.

II. O. Fishback, state insurance
commissioner has written to the
mayors and city councils of the state
suggesting that the sale Of fireworks
be prohibited during the period of
the war. The suggestion is a good
one and, if carried out, will tend &c
conserve labor, money and property.
Instead of using labor to manufac-
ture fireworks for the amusement
of the children, it could be used in
the manufacture Of munitions for the
overthrow of the Kaiser. Instead OF
burning up money in the form OF
firecrackers and skyrockets, the
boys and girls could give a far better
demonstration of their patriotism by
buying thrift stamps. Instead of be
ing a menace to life and property, the
Fourth of July could be transformed
into a day Of quiet rest and enjoy
ment,

We are inclined to agree with Prof
Ten Eyck, both in his judgment of
the best methods of increasing pro-
duction and in the workableness Of
the plan he proposes. The main
trouble is that no one seems to have
any definite knowledge as to Just
what We need in the way of increased
production. We lack a working pol
icy. But one thing seems to be ,ear.
and that is the need for an increased
wheat acreage. There has been a
lot OF loose talk about the need for
increased animal production, but
there have been no reliable figures
submitted
As we suggested a few weeks since
the first thing to learn is Just what
we have in the way of food supply.
both grain and animals Once We
know this, it is simply matter of
calculation to determine what we are
likely to need for next year and the
year following. Farmers can then
adjust their production to this end,
with the assurance that prices will be
high enough to at least make hem
whole on the cost
1t is, of course, too late to do much
this year in the way of increased pro-
duction. understanding time has
gone by. The acreage of corn has
been determined, and nothing could
be done now to change it much. The
farmer is going to put in his best
ticks, and work from / to 16 hours
a day The result of his efforts will
depend almost wholly upon the
weather But it is none too soon to
plan for next year, and for the sake
of humanity we hope that the people
in authority in Washington will lose
no time in making a survey of our
situation as to foodstuffs, and let us
know early this fall just what VIC
ought to grow in the way of grains
and live stock, and about how much,
If a national agricultural policy,
based on real knowledge, can be
worked out, there will be no Ques-
ton of the farmer working to it and
making good so far as he is con-
cerned Wallaces' Farmer
