WATERMELON A. LA FILIPINO
WeII-Meant Effort OF. Native Chef
Spoiled Surprise American Army
Officer Had Planned.

!
The Filipinos, it seems, have more
than one way of serving a watermelon.
The melons grown in the far eastern
archipelago are small in size and in
feriOr in flavor Lieutenant Smith,
stationed in one Of the towns OF north
ern Luzon, hankered for the juicy
Iusciousness of melon from bis own
sunny southland. So his family in
Tennessee carefully Grated choice
watermelon and shipped it to him BY
express. 1t cost him a good many
pesos, but no matter. 1t was beauty
and arrived in perfect condition.
He instructed the cook to prepare
good dinner that very day I; the SPLEEN
did melon was to be served as crown
ing glory. The provincial treasurer,
the school teacher and the few Ameri-
cans in the town were invited to par
take Of treat that was to be sur
prise TO them.
The dinner went forward success
fully; but there was much curiosity
concerning the surprise that the host
naO PROMISED MS guests, duu oil EYES
were turned frequently toward the
door through which it was expected to
4 appear. At last it came. The cook en-
tered, bearing aloft an immense plat
ter, and there came from the company
q chorus of "Ahs !" The platter was
placed on the table under halo, no, a
cloud of-steam. The melon was
boiled, thoroughly boiled.
The quick rising of the host to his
feet with the carving knife in his hand
convinced the cook that he had better
make the quickest exist possible,
which was through the window, and
involved leap of ten feet to the
ground. reports from the second
barrio on the road leading north were
that he was still running when he
passed through. Lieutenant Smith has
not been able TO smile about that wa
termelon yet-New York Herald.

Encouraging
Bolsheviislll

Everything that falsely en-
courages unrest also encourages
holshevism.
Misunderstanding of Amer
lean industrial organization, and
of its benefits to mankind, leads
to unrest, dissatisfaction, and
radicaism.
For example, the Federal
Trade Commission tells the pub
lie that the large packers had an
agreed price for lard substitute
(made of cotton-seed OIL
It reproduces letters taken from
the files of one Of the packers,
showing that such agreed price
existed.
But it failed to mention that
the agreed price was deter
mined at the request of and in
cooperation with the Food
Administration!
Even the Department of JUS
tice, in its unjust attempt to
create prejudice against the
packers, has made public these
same letters, withno explanation.
How long must this kind of
misrepresentation continued In
SO far as it is believed, it not
only breeds discomfort, but re-
suits in injustice to our industry

Deafnesscannot be curecs


by local applications, as they cannot
reach the diseased portion of the ear
There is only one way to cure deafness,
and that ls by constitutional remedies.
Deafness is caused by an infamed con-
dition OF the mucous lining of the Eus-
tachian Tube. When this tube gets in
famed you have rumbling sound or
imperfect hearing, and when it is en-
tirely closed deafness is the result, and
unless the inflammation can be taken out
and this tube restored to it's normal con-
dition, hearing will be destroyed forever,
nine cases out of ten are caused by ca
tarrh, which is nothing but an inhamed
condition of tie mucous surfaces.
We will give One Hundred Dollars for
any case OF deafness (caused by catarrh)
that cannot be cured by Halls Catarrh

The last solution is in the hands of the farmer ant

with any industry or set of who make it their bust
ness to decry the efforts the farmers and business men
in the South to protect their own interests
Fertilizers used in the 1918 crop were priced ON 80
cent cotton and the 1919 prices for fertilizer are based
oa5 and Accent cotton 1t is the duty of every farmer
to farm nteligenty and to fertilze accordingly but
there is very little sense of business in buying
fertilizers at present prices to make cotton at loss to the
producer
I'VE refute the statement that is being urged that it
unpatrotic in the to reduce his cotton

as fully other class of citizens He has had his
labor drafted into the army has replaced them with
his wife and children He has purchased freely of Lib

his efforts in the production oodstus to feed the ma

the call of his the production to assist in

ruin brought about by designing spectators and cotton
gamblers who have spared him even in the hour of

He owes duty to his family and his native coun-

citizen of this country imbued with all the patriotism

yourself and if you have a friend who is interested in
things aeronauc and in the future relations of Americas
with the world aerial map, bring him along
The Chamber of Commerce is now receiving dozens of
inquiries about Americas and Sumter county many OF
them from who looking for places to make in
vestments in farm lands other enterprises The num-
Der of such inquiries is than double the number
being received few months ago. Secretary Perkins was
asked how he for the increase to which he
replied:
'Souther Field is the only explanation Soldiers 60
ing from here have carried reports about Sumter county
and Americas all over America"
Souther Field has done to put Americas on the
zap than other institution ever connected with the
city and it is of direct interest to Americus-to every
business man and property owner-to work in connec-
ton with the air service in every way possible and to
lend cherry effort toward accomplishing Greater
souther Field.
Such effort will be a big step toward Greater

by the farmers Sumter county Saturday when they
expressed their appreciation of the fight being waged by
this newspaper for cotton acreage reduction.
1t is a delight to please ones friends but it is
corders and soul in the cotton acreage reduc
movement it of vital interest to Sumter
county where much has depended upon cotton in the
past and where much will depend in the future upon
dversiying and becoming manycrop county, instead of
q one-crop county.

HURLING THE MONKEY WRENCH.


Observers who know the methods the money
powers that have been waxing fat off the South for
years while keeping the South in comparative poverty
have been watching ntently the disguised of
these interests bob up serenely in unexpected
quarter start movement calculated TO wreck the
of the farmers cotton acreage reduction move
nent
At last the watching has been rewarded the attempt
has been made to throw monkey wrench into the ma
chinery of the farmers movement Comes the that
the Saturday advising against
hte reduction of cotton acreage in Texas this year
The farmers of the Southeast have been watching in
tently for sign of the true sentiment in Texas for big
crop Texas always means cheap cotton this
need be dsconcertng any particular for the
aes action be put the very beginning the
result of the work mill lobbyists bent breaking the
resolve of the farmers of South to take the control
of cotton out of the hands mills and Wall
gamblers, and keep it in their own hands
pretty safe assertion that the farmers of
about intelligent their representatives in their
state senae-and honest-and that they know their
own salvation lies in acreage reduction They know that
it's bad business to plant big acreage that will bring
them less money than a small acreage raised at much
less expense The Texas representatives at the
New Orleans cotton congress few days ago said that
Texas going to reduce-and farmers word is usu
ally better than politicians
But whatever Texas does there is only one sens
bic thing for the remainder the South to doand that
applies particularly Sumter county That one thing is
to reduce. If Texas makes big crop and we plant and
make big crop, will get to nothing for our time
AMI labor and expense 1t will mean poverty indeed
and poverty of own choosing
But apparently the farmers of Sumter have ALREADY
chosen the lot of independence and prosperity for the
reports made at the county meeting here Saturday show
ed that the farmers pledging reduction almost
without exception.
Reduction is patriotic But it is moe than that.
REDUCTION is MISREPRESENTATION Orgn,,
COURSE is SELF-DESTRUCTIoN
Here is what J. H. Mills president OF the GEORGIA
division of the Farmers Union saws Of our COTTON sal

There are two solutions to this question: One is
the removal of the embargoes on all cotton and rhe o.
Establishment of the financial conditions of the wor,A

THE secsnd solution is for the cotton that is now
unsold to be held off the market until it reacts 70 t
