CARROT SYRUP.

Quite a number of families
in the county are planning to
grow a few sugar beets this
year to make their own syrup
and lessen their sugar require
ments. Sugar beets are not the
only root crops that can be so
used. At the home of Mrs.
Daniel Reimann at Roy. We'd
nesday, the editor of the Press
tasted some carrot syrup, and
il was more palatable than the
common syrups sold from the
stores. 1t is made the same
as syrup from sugar beets, as
explained in a recent issue of
the Press Mrs Reimann uses
the carrot syrup in her cook
ing all the time to save sugar,
and prefers it to the sugar
beet syrup, which she has also
made and used. Some people
who have not had experience
in growing sugar beets may
prefer to grow carrots for
syrup instead.

To Spend Not Less Than $4,000

Under the new road law no county in
West Virginia will expend less than
$4,000 year on its roads. Expendi-
tures for roads including the funds for
nished by the State and Federal gov
ernments will run up to quarter mil
lion dollars year in some counties.
In the opinion of T. S. Scanlon, men,
ber of the State Road Commission
every county should employ a skilled
road engineer.
Some of the members Of the county
courts with small tax incomes have in
sisted that they could not afford to pay
a salary of $500 to S2,4Cn a year to
get such an engineer, but Commisson-
er Scanlon is of the opinion that COM
petent supervision of the road building
and the spending of the money by an
experienced man, who should be under
bond, would save the county much more
than his salary each year. In addition
to that, the commissioner declares, the
permanent result for the public in betf
ter alignments, better grades and better
drainage would be twenty-five per cent
higher.

When They May Wear Uniforms.
lovingly,
BILL.

When the soldiers come home from
the front the first thing they will want
to know will be:
"May we continue 10 wear our un-
iforms ?"
The thing dearest TO soldiers heart
next TO home and mother, is his uni
form. Even seleetive service men who
felt repugnance to donning the khaki
when they were drafted have come TO
feel a great affection for il. The boys
will hate to go back 10 civilian clothing
OFFICERS.
After his honorable discharge from
the army, navy or marine corps, COM
missioned officer may wear the uniform
OF the highest grade he has held on oc'
casions Of ceremony.
This means that all public receptions
dinners, balls, mass meetings, and other
similar functions, any officer above the
grade of ensign or second lieutenant
may wear the uniform OF his rank.
There is no time limit in the law, so
that il he likes he may wear the uni.
form to a meeting of world war veterans
50 years from now. He cannot, how
ever, wear his uniform 10 business or
for pleasure.
ENLISTED MEN.
The Law as applied TO enlisted men OF
any branch Of the service Is not so
considera,e. II permits enlisted men
TO wear the uniform for three months
after the date OF discharge; after that
they cannot wear il without risk Of ar
rest and Imprisonment !
The law specifies that the enlisted
man may wear his uniform from the
place OF his discharge to his home, with
in three months after the date OF his
discharge"
This would indicate that II the soldier
stays in the town OF his discharge for
three months, he may wear the UNIFORM
all that time but that whenever he goes
home he must adopt civilian earb. The
purpose was to give him time to obtalr
an outfit OF civilian clothing.
But the War Department, II Is be
lieved, will be inclined TO wink the eye
at literal violations Of the rlle so Ions
as the soldier is not caught wearing the
uniform after his three months expire.
So that when your boy comes home
he may feel perfectly safe In wearing
the khaki for the admiration OF hio
family and friends until three months
from the date OF his discharge.
