MESS HALL De Luxe
Ordnance Men of Company I
Have Unique Army Dining
Room. Tasteful Decorations.
Good Food. No Swearing.

There may be places that boast of solid
silver, Haviland china, Whitehead wait
ers, delicious viands and voluptuous
music-but not in the army. Yet there is
a mess han that comes as close to the
above description as is possible in army
life and under army conditions. | speak
of the mess and mess HAN of Company Q
of the Ordnance Regiment.
The shack is taStefully decorated with
red, white and blue, relieving the proverb-
ial baroness of those barn-like structures.
The tables aer without cloths but are as
white as some table linen We have seen
heTeaboutS in Augusta and elsewhere.
Upon the tables are arranged punches of
wild flowers, a bouquet for each squad,
Each squad place is numbered,
AT mess, the company files in, each man
taking his place with his squad, and none
sits down until every man is in his place.
Before sitting down, the mess sergeant
calls attention" and reasonable quiet
prevails. The day we messed there, grace
was said by Chaplain Schall of the 10th
Regiment. There is no swearing. AS one
of the boys said, this is a dining room,
not barroom." No loud and boisterous
talking. No rough or vulgar remarks. The
only esthetic thing the army does, viz,
to eats made pleasure, not a riot.
1t would not be fair to close the article
without crediting the mess sergeant, Eu-
gene Bensen, with the honor of having
such an excellent mess and mess room.
At Camp Dodge, he had the same dis
tinction of having the best mess and mess
room, The menu is attractive, varies and
eXcellently prepared. The cooks have the
faculty and ability of knowing how to
season. This saves salt and pepper. And
folks they have pie at lest four times
week. And the pie is delicious. Moth
ing leathery about it, believe me.
We unqualifiedly state that the kitchen,
mess and mess shack, under the direction
and care of Sergeant Benson, is the
best we have seen at Camp Hancock It
invites inspection.

TOBACCO THIEVES
RAID THE BARNS OF ROB SMITH
AND T. r. JONES AT
EDGOTEN.

A raid by tobacco thieves was
madeon the barns of Rob Smith and
T. A. Jones, near Edgoten, Thursday
night and 1900 pounds stolen from
Mr.. Smith and 200 pounds from Mr..
Jones. The farmers barn was not
locked and they helped themselves
TO only the best leaf tobacco, leav-
ing the lug piles untouched. Mr.,
Jones barn was locked but the door
was priced open and a man evident
ly got in through the crack and
handed out the tobacco taken. At
both places a trail led to the road,
where a wagon was evidently wait
ing. The tobacco was worth prob
ably $500.
No clue has been discovered, but
the parties were no doubt familiar
with the location Of the piles in the
barns.

Shortage Of Corn Crop For
1918 Foreseen as a
Probability.
GOVERNMENT TO RESCUE
Emergency Agents For Seed
Corn Campaign Are
Busy as Bees

II the tests and reports Of lead
ing farmers and government experts
all over the Mississippi Valley mean
|anything and are TO be relied upon
then the corn growers and all allied
Industries and persons dependent up
on king corn are facing n most ser
ious situation.
According TO tests only about 10 TO
20 per cent Of the corn Of last years
crop will germinate and come up. Be
cause an ear looks good on the out
side is not conclusive evidence that
the leArt Of the grain is sound and
will terminate. On account Of sea
sonal conditions las. fall a large
percentage Of the corn in Kentucky
did not mature perfectly. Hence,
il is extremely important that all
seed corn be tested before plant
ing.
Reports Of tests in the corn States
north Of the Ohio river indicate that
those States have practically no corn
that will do for seed. They will
have to purchase their seed elsewhere
and the national government reports
say that Kentucky and Tennessee
are more fortunate than any other
States in having a larger supply Of
well matured corn for seed. One
report from Illinois says they want
1000 bushels. One county in
Iowa needs $500 bushels. They
will have 10 get seed corn some
where. Every farmer in this county
who has good corn should imme-
diately set about to test his seed
for his own use and lay aside a
good surplus for those who are not
so fortunate, This corn should bring
good prices. While pedigreed corn
is. in some instances, bringing So
to $40 per bushel but ordinary corn
should readily sell for from So to
IS.
Farmers are urged TO cooperate
with Mr.. ]. w. Keeling who has
been appointed by the government
TO aid and assist the people Of this
county in seed corn testing for the
next 80 days. He will have head
quarters in the II. b. NJ. A. Office
in Hopkinsyille, but will 20 over the
county meeting the farmers at stat
"a places. Any time several viii
agree TO get together for a meeting
and will call Mr. Keeling he viii
be glad to meet with them and in
struct them and assist in making
these tests.
