WHEN HE WAVED ELOQUENT
Photograph Record of Just What Mr..
Smith Said Might Have Been
Interesting.

Speaking at a dinner, Representa-
tive Joseph ]. Russell of Missouri re-
ferred to the glory of feminine fash
ions and ffttingly related little story
along that line.
Recently Smith and Jones met in a
restaurant, and while daintily manip-
ulating the abbreviated bits, their talk
turned to comparison OF domestic
expenses. First 1t was beef, next 1t
was butter, and finally millinery came
up for few sighful remarks.
"You should have seen the peach
of hat my wife toted home few
day ago." said Smith. at was all
plumes and other embellishing things,
and after telling me that 1t was stand
ing against my account at $50 she
sweetly asked me what l thought of
it,"
II see" was the smiling response
of Jones. "Of course you told her"
"oh, yes" answered Smith, with a
grim expression. 81 simply rayed over
that hat for an hour Philadelphia

Aid Farmers.

When a business concern wants to
borrow money it makes a business
statement showing the inyentory-or
money invested at the beginning and
end of the year--the money taken in
during the year, the expenses and the
profits. With this statement banker
knows whether or not it is safe to
loan money to this company-in other
words, whether the company has a
good chance of securing profitable re-
turns from a further investment In
their business. A company with a
good business, as shown by such a
statement, usually has good credit
and can borrow money cheaply.
There are many farmers in this
country who keep records of what
they have on hand at the beginning
and end of the year and of what they
take in and what they spend. These
men can borrow money more easily
and cheaply than most farmers be
cause they have the figures to show
the banker.
But before a farmer borrows any
money he should have very clearly In
mind what he wants to use 1t for
and be very sure that in the end II
will pay him to borrow.

Rlee IN the United states.

During the last two years the pro-
duction of rice In this country has
been at Its maximum, between 36,O0O,-
600 and 100000 bushels or, roughly,
one and one-fifth billion pounds. So far
as climate and soil are concerned, the
rice acreage In the United States
might be increased many fold, accord
ing TO the United States department
of agriculture, since in the states of
North Carolina, South Carolina, GSor-
gia, Florida, Alabama, Mississippi,
Louisiana, Texas, Arkansas and Cali
fornia. as well as in small areas in
Missouri, millions of acres are adopt
ed to the cultivation of this crop.
while less than one million acres lo-
Gated within a comparatively few
states are now occupied by rice. One
of the quickest ways of increasing the
crop, the federal specialists say, is
to expand the acreage in the areas
where rice is already probably
grown,

IN RUSSIAN HARB0R
STEPS TAKEN BY PRESIDENT
WILSON TO PROTECT AMERl-
CAN INTERESTS
Situation at vIadivostok, Where the
czeeho-sIevak Forces Have Taken
Possession Of Military Affairs, Is
Most Pressing for Moment

ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS 10 protect
American interests in Russia were APP
proved by President Wilson on July 6
at an important conference at the
White House Following the concIu-
sion Of the meeting, Secretary of the
Navy Daniels, who was present, con-
frmed the reports that American ma
rines had been landed at yIadivOst0k
10 protect the American consulate at
that important Siberian seaport.
Official Washington is fun Of rumprs
concerning important announcements
to come. Attaches of the entente EN-
bassies, who have been most active ia
urging American approval Of a general
allied military intervention In Wash
ington, were frankly in the dark as to
the decisions, if any, that were reached
4 at the conference.
Although it is conceded that the
situation at VIadivostok. where the
Czecho-Sloyak forces have taken pos
session and where huge stores of mill
tary supplies are piled up, is the most
pressing for the moment, the vital
spot is declared to be the Murmansk
peninsula, about which neither Secre-
tary Daniels nor any of those present
at the White House meeting would dis
cuss.
Drive a Wedge.
Secretary Daniels refused either to
affirm or deny that the American
marines or bluejackets have landed
at Kola in the Murmansk region TO
assist in the protection of the Muir
mansk railway. II is through this
region, allied military experts in
Washington insist, that Germany with
the aid of Germanized Finland, pro
posed to drive one of the wedges by
which she means to cut OF Western
Russia from all outside aid. The other
, | wedge, it is declared she means Il
drive through from the Ukraine.
Not even in American official quar-
: tiers is there any disposition to mini
: mize the seriousness of the threatened
|. declaration of war by Finland. TIL
q Finnish authorities, in cooperation
with Germans, latest reports to tn
state department say, have almoS

u line from the Gulf Of Bothnia TO the V

COUNTY AGENT
BECOMES LEADER
Has Come TO Act as Clearing
House of Cooperation Be-
tween City and Country.
CAN DIRECT WHERE NEEDED
None Of His Time Can Be Devoted to
Work That Does Not Concern
Agricultural Development
Likely to Be Busy Man.

The growth and the Strengthening or
the county agent system has resulted
in almost all cases In the county agents
coming to be recognized as the agri-
cultural leaders in their counties, &C
cording to reports to the United
States department of agriculture.
Help for City and Country.
The county agent has come to act
as the clearing house of cooperation.
He is available to both the city man
and the country man and can trans
NIT from one to the other requests for
help and offers of help. He can d.
rect, to places where it is needed, farm
labor offered; he can assist farmers in
their problem of cooperative market
ing; he can inform chambers of COM
merce, county councils of defense,
merchants associations and other ur-
ban bodies, of the problems before the
farmers in his county; in general he
is in position to act as the medium
through which the town will meet the
needs of the country and the country
will meet the needs of the town.
Must Concentrate Efforts
Every county agent is required to
know and observe that his services be-
long to all the people in his county,
but it is evident that none of his time
can be given to work that does not
concern agricultural development. He
is placed in the county to stimulate
good farming. Therefore, he must con-
| fine himself TO work on definite prob
| lens affecting farmers. 1t is neces-
sary for him to utilizeSthe aid of COM
| munity organizations to the fullest
| extent and it is within his duties to
| impress upon the town people how
vital their interest and help is to the
| farmers.
In the war emergency the county
| agents are not only representing the
agricultural colleges and the depart
ment of agriculture, but are assisting
the food administration, the treasury
department. the war department, the
navy department, the department o.
justice and the department of labor.
Help In Direct War Work
They have aided, in addition e
their regular activities. in such worl
as food surveys, seed surveys, seek
distribution, obtaining credit for farm
ers, selling Liberty bonds, eradication
of livestock diseases, surveys of live
stock diseases. surveys of insect pest
and campaigns for their destruction
marketing farm products, preferential
or priority shipments by railroads 0
farm products and all farm supplies
and the dissemination of information
given out by the war department, tn
council of national defense and tn
committee on public information re
garding the war and other matters al
fecting the national policy under wa
conditions.
Thus it can be seen that the count
agent is likely to be a rather bus
man.

Hot weather always starts those
quick chemical changes which pro-
duce poisons in meats, fish, fruits,
vegetables, milk and food products.
Such summer poisons in foods not
only make well stomachs sick but de-
velop with dangerous rapidity in
sensitive, sick or ailing stomachs and
bowels.
These poisons not only generate
gases and fluids which cause that
bloated, lumpyfeeling, heartburn, sour
stomach, belching, acidity, but endless
other stomach and bowel miseries.

RED CROSS PIG CLUB

The county agent in Carroll
county, Mississippi, started out
last winter to combine pork pro-
duction and Red Cross work.
He tried to get $500 people
each to raise one pig to be
known as a Red Cross pig. In
stead of $500 members, he got
1900 in a county that has only
1,600 voters. In September
the club members are to send
5000 hogs to the st. Louis mar
ket. This will mean a contri-
button estimated at $4,000 to
the Red Cross, In addition TO
more pork for the country and
more money for Carroll county.
A SIS registered pig is given
each month as a prize to the
member whose pig has made
the greatest gain.

him. stating that she had kept one

"But you will let it slip some day,
