Franklin's Face On Stamps.

The United States Treasury, realizing
that the name of Benjamin Franklin is
synonymous with thrift, has selected
his likeness to adorn the 1919 issue Of
war savings stamps
The United States government has
summoned the nations to join in paying
tribute to Franklin's memory on jan
uary II. More than $780, War Saw
ings societies and other organizations
will hold public meetings. Special ex-
ercises will be held in the schools
throughout the country. The public
libraries will make the day special one.
The purpose of this Franklin birthday
celebration Is to stimulate increased in
terest in continuing the habit of thrift
acquired during the war.
Franklin was living apostle of thrift
and business foresight. Franklin made
a bequest of S25, 00U, known as the ''Dr.
Franklin fund for loans to young mar,
ried artifcers," in 1870, and it, making
it Franklin looked ahead. estimating
that in 1890 the fund would be 1865, 900.
But it reached only 500, 1888. go.
Franklin did mot intend the entire
fund to be continued for loans after
1890, but directed that in that year $500,
600 be turned over to Philadelphia fol
public improvements. In 1907 the boarc
of city trustees turned over the money,
about $l33, 900. to the Franklin Insti:
tute to erect a Franklin memorial
building.

Road Director and Mrs. Chichester
Return From The South.

Road director and Mrs. VIM. S
Chichester, of Aquasco, in the extreme
southern end Prince Georges County,
have returned from delightful stay in
Jacksonville, Florida. Mr.. Chichester
was appointed by Governor Harrington
a delegate from the County to the
Farmers National Conference, and
was the only one of several named who
attended the big gathering of men who
till the soil. The genial road director
is not only competent and energetic

appreciates and loves farm work. Mr.
and Mrs. Chichester have done their
bit, also, towards winning the war
Thew gave two husky and enthuastic
lads to the cause. Lieut.. Peter w
Chic tester who is stationed at Camp
Lee with the infantry and Lieut.. Fred
S. Chichester, who is in the. aviation

retiring disposition and is one of the
county's best and most highly respect
ed citizens. His sons, both being ad-
yanced to the rank of lieutenant, are
Young men of exceptional worth. 1t

Farmers to Have Big Building in
Washington.

A temple of agriculture, to cost ST.
$50, 900, is to be erected in Washington.
Plans for the erection of such a build
ing were discussed at meeting of the
National Board of Farm Organizations
recently.
The site for the building, which will
be above fifteen stories in height and
one of the most modern in Washington
city, has not been selected. The build
ing committee however, has under con-
sideration several sites in business
sections. This committee, of which A.
A. Elmore, of Spokane, Washington, is
chairman, consists of other members as
follows: Clifford Pinchot, former fores-
ter United States Department of Agri
culture; Maurice McAuliff, of Salina,
Kans. J. A. McSparran, of Philadel-
phia. Pa; J. H. Hill, Jenkinsburg Ga;
Milo D. Campbell. Coldwater, Mich. !;
S. J. Lowell, Fredonia, N. Y; and F.
j. Nicolls, Windfeld, Iowa.
A large portion of the funds for the
erection of the structure already has
been secured. 1t is proposed, however,
to solicit funds from farmers in the
various States. 1t was pointed out
that the farmers of America have never
had such headquarters and have suffer
ed grea thy from the lack thereof. The
bull ding will serve as general head
quarters for the organized farmers of
America.
The various farm organizations con-
nected with the NationafBoard are:
Farmers Educational and Co. operative

Farmers Co operative Association, Ma
tional Dairy Union, Pennsylvania Pro-
gress Association America Association

ALLIED FOOD SHIPMENTS
REACH LARGE total

A general idea Of the quantity Of
food sent TO European allies by the
United States from July l. 1914, to
January l. 1918, Is given BY fgupes
Just announced by the q. 8. Food Ad-
ministration. In that period the Unft-

Great Wheat Stocks
Isolated.

It's the shortage In ships that
is putting the Allies and tbs
United States on wheat rattona
Great stocks Of wheat are iso-
lated in India. and Australia. At
great sacrifice In ship space and
use the Allies are forced to &C.
cure some wheat from Argentina.
On January 1, Australia had
stored 100000 bushels Of
wheat that was ready for ex-
port-but there were no ships.
Then came the new crop with
an exportable surplus Of S0,0OO,-
600 bushels. Now Australia has
approximately 100000 BUSH
els waiting for ships.
India, at the same time, had
100000 bushels Of wheat
stored for export During April
OO,UOO,OOO bushels more OUT OF
the new crop will be added to
the pile.
Argentina closed the last ship
ping season with 100000
bushels of wheat left In the
stock available for export The
new crop will add 1875. 100000 to
the left over.
1t Is not a problem that the
wheat does not exist in the
world-it Is entirely a problem
Of shipping, which has thrown on
America the obligation Of divid-
ing our stock with the Allies.

Tobacco In Good Demand.

The demands for the tobacco leaf is
s % great at this time and the prices art
so satisfactory that many tobacco grow
ers of the State are already beginning
to send the ground leaves to market
and finding ready sale for them at re-
munerative prices. At least the prices
bling paid for the first arrivals art
away above those in the past, regard
less of the time the ground leaves
reached the market.
One of the leading tobacco buyers. ii.
the city, said last Saturday that ap-
proximately 100 hogsheads of "groun,.
leaves" of the 1918 crop have ALREADY
come to Baltimore, and that the eager
ness for the stock has been so great
that the arrivals have been sold at prices
ranging from 10 cents to 20 cents d
pound.
To appreciate the urgency of this DIT
mand it may be explained that the
growers generally use the moist weath
er of the winter and the early spring
months for stripping the crop which il
gathered in the fall. Therefore,
part of the crop of one year ordinarily
comes on the market until the sprins,
following its gathering. Tobacco has
to 60 through curing process to max
it marketable porducuion and this cur
ing is generally the result of its expos
ure during the winter and moist early
spring months. 1t is a srop which can
not be handed in dry weather, as the
leaves become brittle and break OF
.crumble when the attempt Is made t.
purchase it for packing or shipping
except in rainy or moist weather.
In connection with the early ship
ments of the ground leaves" this
year it was explained that these are
the leaves which are first on the tobac-
co stalk and neasest the ground-hence
the name. They absorb much of the
fructifying power of the plant in
growth and consequently may need less
of the curing operation than the rest
of the leaves. Being in shape almost
from the time of gathering they are
first stripped, and hence the first tc
reach market. This accounts for the
early receipts this year.-Baltimore
