Baby's Sore Eyes

No infantile affection should be taken
in hand more quickly and treated more
carefully than baby's sore eyes Babies
are SO often born that way, and neglect
may mean blindness for life. The nur-
sery outfit for every baby with sore
eyes should include a bottle OF Hoilan' S
Eye Water, which will relieve the
worst case of ophthalmia or infected
sore eyes in twenty-four to forty-eight
hours. Hollan's Eye Water is 25c a
bottle and a glass eye water dropper
is furnished free with each, bottle.
This remedy for weak, inflamed or
sore eyes is perfectly safe and abso-
lutely painless. 1t may be used full
strength in the eyes of infants with
out the least danger OR sense or pain.
If your druggist cannot supply Hol-
lan's Eye Water, do not accept any
substitute, but ask him to order Hof
lan's Eye Water for you.-Adv.

NON-MILITARY ACTIVITIES

Raymond B. Fosdick, chairman of the Ameri-
can War Department Committee on Training
Camp Activities, has returned to Paris after a
tour of week on the American front, where he
made detailed survey of the work and relation
ships of the non-military organizations engaged
in furnishing recreation and home comforts to
the American expeditionary forces.
The survey is being made for Mr.. Baker, Sec
rotary of War, under the direction of General
Pershing, and has as it's object the coordination
of non-military activities among the American
troops on both sides of the Atlantic and the for
mutation of a method by which the organizations
officially recognized for service with the Ameri-
can expeditionary forces in France and England
can be brought more closely together. At the
same time Mr. Fosdick will determine where the
funds and energies of various other American
social organizations which are anxious to get
into the field can be applied effectively.

FEEDING THE NATION.

According to the report of the United States
Department of Agriculture, the total production
of early cabbage in the United States, will be
142, $50 tons, of which 121 900 tons will be in
the South, the only other producing State being
California with 81 500 tons.
The output in the Southern States shows an
increase of about $4,000 tons, while California;
production shows probable decrease of 5000
tons. South Carolina jumped it's output from
$3.50 tons last year to $4,000 tons this year Flor
ida makes the amazing growth from IL, 400 tons
last year to Al 600 tons this year. while Alabama
jumped from 1000 tons to over 10000 tons, and
Mississippi from 5000 tons to 1248O tons.
There is heavy decrease in Texas, which
doubled its acreage but cut its production in half
by reason of the long drouth in the cabbage
growing section of that State. Virginia also
shows decrease of $500 TOMS, while the total
increase in North Carolina, South Carolina, Flor
ida, Alabama and Mississippi is "a $40 tons.
The contribution of 10000 TONS or more than
5000 carloads of cabbage from the Central
South for the feeding Of the North and West is
but one Illustration of how the South is helping
to feed other sections.

CAPTURING JERUSALEM.

When General Allenby's forces marched to
Jerusalem and captured it from the Turks their
victory was made possible by the building of a
pipe line across the Sinai desert, $50 miles, sup
plying them with water. Moreover, this pipe
line was made of pipe from the National Tube
Co., of Pittsburgh, so that American industry
co-operated in most effective manner with the
British army in restoring the Holy City to Chris
tian nations.
This great engineering feat is described by
Major Maurice, Chief director of military opera
atoms of the British War Office who says:
tIn the campaign as whole the greater
complshment has not been in the defeat of the
Turks, but the conquest of the Sinai desert.
The troops which fought at GAIA drank water
from Egypt pumped drought American pipe
line, and were supplied over a broad gauge
raroaod laid clear the $50 miles of desert
which has defeated almost everybody that tried
to conquer Egypt for centuries. Every ounce of
material for the pipe line the railroad and the
other works came either from Great Britain or
the United States
Cali the time this conquest of the desert has
been going on the official communications have
been able to say only nothing to report, and the
public thought were idle. The fall of Jerusa-
lem was made possible by industry, organization
and the help of material from the United
States

new wheat crop that can possibly be saved
against lean crops of the future.
with the arrival of large harvest" says Mr.
Hoover in message to the Food Board, ''some
of the most inconvenient restrictions can no
doubt be modified. But if we are honest with
ourselves we will maintain restrictions requiring
the use of some substitutes, both domestic and
commercial We will continue the requirement
of high milling extration and the elimination of
the non-essential use of and waste in flour and
bread
at is worth while remembering that the
famine in Egypt eight thousand years ago was
saved by little government foresight and it
does not require any illuminating dream to antici-
pate that so long as the war lasts, with its in
creasing drafts for soldiers and munition work
ers, the world will steadily produce less food. If
we are wise, great harvest will mean the will

"Organized labor is on record here

FREE SPEECH RULE FOR

WASHINGTON, May 2.-That con-

charge late Wednesday of Senator
johnson, California, attacking the
conference report on a bill to punish
seditious utterances and writings.
''The free speech rule is now for
the first time repudiated and denied
expression in a law" said Johnson.
"What harm can be do4e by preserv-
ing right that has existed ever since
the United States was a. nation?
,''1t was with feeling of the great
est delight and great security that I
read the wise and statesmanlike letter
Of the president putting his stamp Of
.disapproval on the bill presented the

mittee."
Johnson referred here to the Cham
berlain court-martial bill, killed by
the presidents disapproval.
