APPEALS TO SOUTH
TO GROW ITS FOOD.
oIREcToR.eENERAL M'Apoo ASKS
SOUTHERN FARMERS TO GROW
MORE FooDsTUFFs.
WILL HELP IN WINNING WAR
Says More MIX, Butter, Eggs, Poultry,
Fruit and Vegetables Can Be Pro-
dueed Without Reducing An
nuaI Production Of Cotton.

Washington. south should
help win the war by raising its own
foodstuffs and eliminating the neces-
sity Of transporting food from other
sections of the country" says Director
General McAdoo In an appeal to the
people of the south, and particularly
to farmers Without reducing cotton
production, farmers ought to produce
more milk, butter, eggs, poultry, fruit
and vegetables, he suggested.
Zone of the greatest tasks confront
ing the American people" said Mr..
McAdoo, lis that of improving and
making thoroughly efficient their rail-
road transportation system. The peo-
pie Of the south, and especially the
farmers, are in the habit of using the
transportation system Of the country
to degree that is highly uneconomic
and unnecessary, for the purpose of
transporting food and feed from other
parts of the United States, because
they do not produce enough foodstuffs
and feedstuffs for themselves.
II wish to urge upon the people of
the south, and especially the farmers,
to do everything possible during the
next year to relieve the strain on the
railroad agencies of the nation by pro-
ducing their own food and feed crops.
The south can, IL 1t will, feed itself
and produce the rations both in rough
age and grain for its own live stock
1.-THE best farmers OF the south rec
ognize the fact that 1t pays as mat
ter OF good farming to produce on each
farm the hay and grain for live stock,
all the garden products, fruit and poul-
try, and If possible a surplus of all
these for sale in the immediate vicin-
ity.
ut is not desired nor do I suggest
that the growing of cotton should be
discouraged. Every southern farmer
should raise all the cotton that he can
well cultivate, since cotton constitutes
the best cash crop of most of the
south, but he should grow the hay and
grain to feed his draft animals. He
should produce his own milk, butter,
eggs, poultry, fruit and vegetables, and
every city and town of the south be
to the largest possible extent supplied
with these commodities by the farm
ers of the south. 1t is not only good
agricultural practice, but it becomes
in this exigency patriotic duty.
'If the south can feed itself 1t will
release from unnecessary service in
the south a vast number of freight
cars and engines and will help win the
war"

HIS MEMORY SOMEWHAT HAZY
Seattle Man Not Quite Certain Wheth-
er He Had Enlisted, but He
Was No Gutter.

Last summer, when every young
mans thoughts were on the war, q
wealthy lumberman from Seattle ar
rived in New York on business trip.
His business having been attended to,
he was q guest at a dinner given one
evening by an officer in the United
States marine corps. AS the hours
and the flowing bowl passed, speeches
became more and more frequent, ev-
erybody was wrought up, and there
was no man so base as to say that he
would not go to the front for his coun-
try.
Early the next morning the Seattle
man started back home.
A few days later the officer of ma
rines received this telegram from him
did I enlist that night? If so, in
struct me when and where to report"

He was visiting in the city and went
with an older relative to the city
library. The relative, who wished to
consult some books in the reference
room, decided to leave him to be en-
tertained in the children's room mean
while. When she returned she asked
the attendant in charge how he had
got along and was told, Hes all right
now, but at first 1 couldn't get him to
look at a thing" Rather surprised
because he is generally fond of books
she turned to the youngster. why
James, didn't you want TO look at the

HURRY CALL FOR AUNT MARY
Still Time to Save Chicken, Though
Usefulness of Bread Dough Was
Thing of the Past

She was entertaining city friends at
dinner in her country home. Anxious
to have the event as nearly perfect as
possible, she had served dinner to her
small son and his visiting cousin, Bill
", in the kitchen first and then ban
ished them to the back yard. But
while she gave apparently undivided
attention to her guests conversation,
she was nevertheless conscious Of the
very frequent opening and closing of
the back door, Of boys footsteps, of
little chickens yeaping and, finally, of
Billy's distressed face peeping in at
the swinging door. But she did not
remember until too late that she had
carefully covered some bread dough
to rise in the one place in the kitchen
where the heat was just right-on the
little platform under the stove. At
last Billy's head bobbed far enough in
to the room for the company to see
bis disturbed look and one guest said:
Come here, little boy, to see me-
won't you"
why" said Billy, encouraged, 81
jest wanted to tell Aunt Mary that one
little chicken Is about to get into her
bread, and another one can hardly get
out"

SAW SMALL CHANCE TO SAVE
Enlisted Man Evidently Had the
Spending Instinct Developed to
Remarkable Degree.

Difficulties of soldiers who formerly
were successful business men, in pay
ing last years income tax on this
years pay are illustrated by a story
brought to Washington by an officer
serving at one of the southern canton
nientS.
Last February, the officer said, he
explained to the men of his command
that all married men would have to
pay tax ON all their last years earn
ings over $1,000, while unmarried men
would have to pay on all incomes over
$1,000.
Coming to him later one of the men,
private, said: .
81 guess l won't be able to pay that
income tax. 1 haven't any money"
ooh, that's all right" replied the
officer, you have until June to pay
it and you can save it out of your pay
by that time"
Il am afraid I couldn't" responded
the private, 81 made $4,000 last year
and 1 blew it all When 1 was called in
to the army"
