THE SUGAR WASTE IN COFFEE AND
TEA

The following bulletin among the most
forceful and effective bits of conservation pro-
paganda at the New York Food Show last
month.
Save the waste!
100 million cups coffee used daily in United
States.
ITO million cups tea and coffee.
eff even an average of half teaspoonful of
sugar per cup is left undssolved at the bottom
of cups of tea and coffee, the waste would be
1,7O0, 900 pounds of sugar daily!
Stir your sugar until it dissolves! It's es-
timated that one-third to one-half of all sugars
used in homes is used in tea and coffee.
Think it overflow is it in your home?
Isn't there a chance for saving?"

BATTLE.
FEATURES GAMES IN

In pitchers battle between Kent
and Hartman, with the honors equal
" divided, the Company G team de-
feated the Shop Boys by a score of
one to nothing in one of the best
games yet staged in ,sie Twilight
League.
Both teams played top notch ball
and neither had made a run until the
last half of the fourth inning when
the Company G came to bat. With
two down Luellen was hit by pitched
ball and Immediately stole second:
stiles hit a drive to right field, the
fielder fumbling it, for moment, then
making the throw to the plate and
Luellen was safe on close decision.
In the Shop Boys half of the last
inning they attempted a rally. After
Rukey had struck out, Livingstone got
a hit to left field, Giest the next man
up was hit by pitched ball; Robert
son struck out. With Smiling George"
Hartman, the pride of the Shop Boys
at the. bat, Livingstone attempted to
steal third and over ran the bag by
four feet and was an easy out for
Dempsey. the crack third sacl>er of
Company G. Thus ended an attempted
rally.

WAR ORATORS PLACE THE SOUTH IN
FALSE POSITION

Ever since we entered the war, the South has
been placed IN false position by prominent in
dividuals organizations and publications of the
North. which have maintained that this section
was for long time backward in accepting the
war as serious call upon the nation and slow
in rallying to support of the government
The latest offender is the National Security
League very patriotic, though somewhat mis-
informed rganization-which, in summarizing
a lengthy report, states that its representatives
have found, 1.-THE gradual arousing of the South
and Southwest to an aggressive war spirit, from
an almost complete ignorance of the reasons for
the participation of the United States in the
fict and the meaning of the German menace"
It is quite probable that the university pro-
fessors whom the league sent South to teach the
people of the war, willing to learn more of the
great struggle But the statement of one of
them in the report CT was impressed everywhere
by the almost total unanimity of feeling with re-
gard to our just cause in prosecuting the war.
Each locality seems to feel that it is one center
and that it is responsible for the successful
prosecution. of the war. So far as [ was able
to detect there was no backward pull the
these lines I found in every community will
ingness to go to any sacrifice which the Govern
ment may call upon the citizens to undergoO,
does not indicate that of the South are en-
tirely in ignorance regarding either the war or
our duty, nor that there is gradual awakening
of an aggressive spirit
The fact is that teh South has had had the
true spirit of the war from the start. 1t has
responded to every call and has never failed to
do its part-and more The war orators who
first came South created an impression in the
North that this section was luke-warm. Those
who followed found the first reports exaggerated,
but instead of saying so frankly they informed
the North that we 'are just awakening"
Dr. E. E. Sperry of Syracuse University, says:
''The people of the regions which l visited
need instruction concerning many Of the ele-
mentary aspects of the war. For example, the
PAN German plan of conquest was unknown to
many, even by name. The events which I'M
mediately preceded the war, and the attempts
made by England, France and Russia to avert it,
are known only in the vaguest manner, if at all"
1t would be interesting to know what regions
the doctor visited-he certainly does not refer
Z West Florida. The people here know why
we are at war and probably understand their re-
sponsibiities as fully does the professor him
| self.
The South is pleased to have the Northern
orators visit this section, we are glad to learn
from them, but if the professors would stay here
long enough and mingle sufficiently with our
people it is quite probable that they, too, would
learn much of sincere patriotism and its honest
application.

VEGETABLE SEED PRODUCTION SURVEY

Total production of vegetable seed with the
exception of cabbage, lettuce, satisfy, and tur-
nip, will be ample for the needs of the coming
year, according to preliminary returns from the
seed-production survey of July l, 1918, and
crop reports from important commercial seed
growers. In some cases where the condition
of crops is not satisfactory Increased acreages
are expected to bring the total production up
to normal, while more than normal production
of seed is indicated for some kinds of vegetables.
This condition, it is pointed out, does not
necessarily mean large surplus, for it is
known that large orders have been placed for
certain vegetable seeds by foreign concerns for
export to countries in Europe which formerly
have been exporters of these seeds to the
United States.

also narrated how the Germans had
controlled and operated the wireless
stations in Mexico during 9he war,
and argued that this would prove
even a greater disadvantage in time

United States in its fight for reason

The Pan-American company. which

Nally said he found in April last that
secretary Daniels had changed his
announced plans and then favored
government ownership. The. seere-
tary's request TO complete the con-
.truction OF the company's high-power
station in Argentina was refused.
Regarding the Mexican situation
Mr.. Nally said:
Although the Mexican government
claims title 10 all these stations. the
apparatus is strictly German There
have been German operators in every
one OF the twenty odd stations. More
over. there have sprung up govern
ment electrical shops with German
supv -intendents. and this whole sys-
tern has been supervised by German
radio experts who were formerly en-
aloyed al Sayville and Tuckerton and
m German liners which were intern
ed In this country at the beginning OF

On the South American conditions
Mr.. Nally declared:
IL the Pan-Am erican Wireless

could go forward freely with its plans
