IMPORTANT CHANGE
IN RAILROAD TRAVEL

On November LIST the railroads will
sell a ticket covering both the charge
for a section in a parlor or sleeping
car and the additional passage charge
for occupancy of the section, 1t was
stated by the Railroad administration.
Hitherto a passenger bought his par
lor or sleeping car section and sep
arately paid the passage occupancy
charge. The change is made for the
convenience of the public.
The Railroad Administration also
announced that as rapidly as the
ticket Office could be altered the SELL
ing of straight railroad tickets and
parlor or sleeping car accommoda-
tions would be combined at one win
dow. Now a traveller usually buys his
railroad ticket at one window and his
parlor or sleeping car ticket at an
other The purpose is to have him
attend to all of his ticket purchases
at the same window and at the same
time.

DID THE EARTH QUAKE

A number of residents of Annapo-
lis, in various parts of the city have
been disturbed the past two days by
the windows of their houses rafting
at intervals, and the houses. in some
instances, seeming to shake on their
foundation. So marked has been the
rafting of windows and doors, that
persons in the house have gone to the
front door to see if any mischievous
boys had knocked on the window
pane.
So far as known, there has been
no seismic disturbance in this local
ity, and the vibration felt must be that
from the firing of big guns at the
proving grounds some distance away

COTTON AND FOOD CROPS

In many quarters the planters of the South are being urged to plant less to cotton and more to food crops. That seems like a good policy. and The Journal has advocated it. But it does not advocate any policy that will materially reduce the crop of cotton.
 Cotton holds an important position in our food economy. Every bale of it represents about half ton of seed From this seed we get an important oil, rich stock feed and, if we chose, we might also get bread food. There were almost 5,0O0,0OO tons of seed produced last year. The products yielded from this source, which were mostly food and feed, were one and a half million tons of oil and two and half millions of meal, besides one and quarter tons of hulls.
 The oil is of great importance as a substitute for lard and cooking fats; and also is valuable for making gly- cerine soap and medicinal compounds. We are asked to save fats; the surest way to do it is to increase the supply of substitutes so there need be no deprivation. Cottonseed meal is much richer in protein than corn or any other grain, and is important in mak- ing meat.
 It is important that the South raise omre bread crop, especially corn, this year It should also raise more pork and fatten it on it's own corn. There is no other part of the country which can render as much assistance in meeting the world demand for food as that section of the country. The task is no pigmy undertaking. The state experiment farms show that the yield per acre of cotton can be doubled, but to do that in actual prac- tiee, and do it in one year, is like climbing up the side of wall.
 Wherever there is idle land it should be planted. The South has more in proportion than any of the other of the older sections of the country. Can more of this be utilized, and at the same time better cultiva- tion given to the cotton; and can the fertilizers be provided? These are the problems. If they can be overcome there will be an actual gain in the food supply of more avail than to de- crease one crop to a serious extent in order to increase another-Journal, New York

IN MEMORY OF
 MRS. NANCY A. NORMAN

Her maiden name was Nancy A. Mcdonald. She was born in Hemp stead county, Arkansas, in 1S41, be- fore the formation of Nevada county, and all her life was spent in that part of the latter county that was taken from the former. She died at Emmet February 26th, 1918. She was of Irish descent, and possessed in a large degree the genial, happy dispo- sition of her race. Her ancestors came from Ireland to America in 17S4, and they were always loyal to their adopted country.
The Prescott daily news., 1918-03-27

In 1860, amidst the stirring. stormy scenes that preceded the war between the states, she was married to John M. Norman, a young gentleman of hign character, strict integrity, splen- did ability and excellent physique. The marriage was happy but tenn porary separation soon followed. The war clouds hickened-sectiona bit- terness grew stronger and stronger: finally accession came; there was a call to arm both North and South. Her patriotic husband answered the call ot his state and faithfully served the Confectionery, while she. during the war, earned her own support cared for her family and protected the home. When peace came the sol dier husband returned to his wife There were born to them eight chil- dren who survive her: Mrs. w. A. McMillian, Prescott, Arkansas; Mrs. Iyrza Ware, San Antonio, Texas: Mrs. l. P. Tyree, Idabel, Oklahoma: Mrs. P. E. Shope, Fl Cajan, Cali fornia; Mrs. c. V. Johnson, Beau mont, Texas; MT. E. E. Norman, Emmet, Arkansas; MT. w. V. Norman Basile, Louisiana, and Mir. J. M. Norman, Blevins, Arkansas. She has twenty-two grandchildren now living. Her husband died in July, 1880, but she remained on the old homestead until she had reared all her children and fitted them for positions in life. The old farm war dear to her, and until her strength failed she could not be induced to leave it. The latter years of her life she often became reminiscent, and it was interesting to listen to the story of her eventful life, told in her quaint characteristic man. her. She was devoted to her friends, ever ready and willing to share their eIoubiSS dilu SOIIUWS. Ouc was eS- pecially thoughtful of the stick-it was never too hot or too cold for her to visit them if her services were needed. She delighted to do the many little kindnesses that go to make a real neighbor, and she had the love of all her neighbors.
 She joined the Methodist church at Moscow in 1869, and to the end main- tained steadfast faith in Him whom she then confessed. As the end ap- preached not one murmur of rebellion or complaint came from her chilled lips-only this simple prayer, "Oh, God, if I have suffered enough, take me home. I am ready" When her children, men and women, once her babies, were weeping over mother, with triumphant faith and Christian resignation she said to them: Don't cry, but kiss me-" When asked if she feared death she looked up and with a smile said, "Oh no, not at all-just waiting for my Master to say Time enough" Such were her last words {; but even when her voice was inaudi- ble her heart seemed to utter that loftiest shout of human triumph:
 70 Death! where is thy sting?
 o Grave! where is thy victory?"
