From Artilleryman August F. Neil,
of Friendsville. now In service in
France, the following letter was re-
ceiVed by his mother recently. it having
been written on Nov. %. The young
soldier Is attached to the 3l9th Field
Artillery and has been overseas almost
year:
DEAR MOTHER: This is Saturday af
ternoon and am sitting around doing
nothing and time is passing very slow
since the war is over. The reason for
this is we are all so anxious for that
trip across the Atlantic and home again
that it makes days seem like weeks.
Tomorrow, the Oath, is a date set for
every man in the A. E. F. to write
letter to their father, but mother will
have to write mine to you. They allow
US to write most anything we want to
so am going to tell you little more
about what has been going on more
than | did before. Well to start with
our outfit has been over here ever since
the Both of last May. We landed in
Liverpool on that date. early in the
morning, and we went from there
across the English Channel to France to
a camp by the name of De-Lacourtine.
We landed there June 7th we were in
that camp about two months and from
there we went to the front and have
been in active service at the front ever
since or till the armistice was signed.
We were in the drive of Sept. 18th in
what they call the st. Mihiel drive in
the Toul or the Lorraine Sector.
suppose you heard all about that drive,
as it was some experience. We were
there nearly two weeks and then we
were sent on forced march to the
Arogonne north of Verdun. We sure
had some hard hiking to do on that
forced march. We liked three nights
and two days. We would start out
about dark and land somewhere about
daylight the next morning, we would
stop there long enough for about four
or FIVE hours of sleep and few meals,
then start out again. We layed back
in reserve for a little oyer a week so
we got rested up little. We went on
the front then again and we were right
on the job when the big Argone drive
started on Nov. 1st and that was the
drive that made the Germans come to
their knees. After we got them on
the run we had some hard hiking to do
to try and catch them. Our guns were
in position several times and before we
could get ammunition the Germans
were out of our range so we had to
pack up and go again.
Now | tell you we sure felt good
when the news came that the armistice
was signed. We were mostly located
in front of our guns and when the gun
would shoot the shells would go right
over US, and the Germans would send a
few back once in awhile, which made

IN MEMORY OF ROBERT GLOTFELTY.
He's asleep-but the blue skies of France
arch above him,
And the larks OF France MARBLE on high:
Asleep-far from those who so dearly have
loved him.
He wandered afar, there TO suffer and die.
When America called he was willing and
eager,
No tear Of regret dimmed his eye when he
went:
And the GIFT he has made was not stinted or
meager-
He gave to the fullest extent.
Far OF where the nations for succor were
crying,
And the rivers run sullen and red,
There, meath the sod true hero is lying,
Our brave young Crusader is dead.
But all, not in vain did he offer Old Glory
His life-blood to brighten her bars:
And the tale OF his life is a grand sacred
story
Untouched by dishonor's dark sears.
He went down-but his ensign floats proud
er than ever,
Though She trembles and droops DER his
newly-made grave;
And France can never forget him, no never.
For he suffered and died her sad children to
save.
And the larks may still carol, their carefree
way winging-
He marks not nor hears the sweet notes as
they rain,
For he has gone on where bright angels are
singing,
Where no heart is heavy or laden with pain
And some day wen cross the dark river to
meet him
Beyond the grim clouds of war-darkened
sky;
Some day mid celestial throngs we will
greet him,
Meier again to bid fearful goodbye.

Corporal Stewart Roth, son of Mr.
and Mrs. D. o. Roth, of Red House,
recently wrote his parents from France
as follows:
My dear mother and all. Your letter
of Nov. 26th received and was very glad
to hear from you and to know that
you are all well. l have been receiy-
ing my mail from you regularly since
we have been located here, but before
that time of course we didn't receive
our mail so regularly and believe some
OF your letters were lost as | never re-
ceiyed them and expect some of mine
were. too. Of course you understand
they have so much mail to handle some
OF it is sure to get lost. guess you all
understand why | didn't write oftener
while at the front before the war ended.
The reason l say this is because l heard
of some fellows receiving letters asking
them why they didn't write oftener like
some other boys, but they never stop
ped to consider that those boys that
could write SO often were back of the
lines somewhere and not in the infant
ry. Of course we have plenty of time
to write now. We don't have very
many hours of daylight over here now
as it doesn't get daylight until 7:30 A.

in harvesting the l27 acres of wheat.
Only "a acres out of the field were
disced because of the condition of
the soil. Three hundred and ten
hours and nine minutes was the
operating time on the entire field.
OF the total time lost only 3 per
cent is traceable to tractor trouble
while 7 per cent is due to trouble
with the implements operated. One
hundred and twenty-seven acres Of
wheat were harvested with one eight
foot binder pulled by Parrett
tractor. The complete outfit being
operated by one man.
The blowing operation proved
SIMPLER to handle than either cut
ting or threshing. Nine sets of
plow shares were used during the
operation. The work Of blowing
was continued night and day, but
the figures show that the combina-
ton Of the plow and tractor per-
formed best of all. One acre an
hour was averaged in the blowing.
Tractors were used for handling
bundles to the separators in wagon
trains, each train consisting of two
wagons. Two tractors handled the
three-wagon trains, which per-
mitted one train at the separator
being unloaded while the others
were in the field being loaded.
Threshing operation was made diff
fcult mainly on account of the lack
of field labor which made it hard
to deliver bundles to the separator
in a steady enough stream to keep
the outfit operating up to capacity.

HUDSON EXP ANDS'

$2,250,000 Being Expended
to Increase the Out
put of Super-Six and
Essex Cars.

ITO meet the demad for Hudson
and Essex cars, the factory has just
taken the first steps in 4 program
of expansion involving the inme-
date expenditure of $2,250,000," Guy
L. Smith announced today. OF this
sum Sl,250,00O is for the acquisition
of additional land and the erection
of new buildings, while 100000 is
for machinery and equipment.
although 10000 Hudson and Es-
sex cars are being built this year,
this number, the largest ever turned
out in the history of the factory,
has proved inadequate to meet the
demand and the number will be in
creased next year TO approximately
10000.
Every year for the past 10 years
has seen shortage of Hudson cars
despite the constant enlargement of
the factory facilities. During this
period the Hudson factory has
grown from little two-story build
ing into the largest plant in the
world devoted exclusively to the
manufacture of fine automobiles.
But even these vast facilities were
taxed to the utmost this year by the
tremendous popularity of the new
Essex and the greatly increased de-
mand for the Super-Six, both cars
being turned out at present in the
same plant. So far this year 10000
Essex have been built and sold.
But even this great number has
proved insufficient in the face of
demand that seems to be increasing

ter known"

CHICAGO BOARD OF TRADE.

Chicago, May 17.-Government
measures to curb large speculative
operations in the corn market had a
decided bearish effect today on values
In the end the market was unsettled
at 1%c to sac net decline, with July
$685. to $1.59h and September
$685. to $1.53a. Oats finished u c
to lie down and provisions varying
from csc off to 10e advance.
At first the weakness in the corn
market was only moderate, but dur
inc the last hour selling became gen.
eral and support was almost entirely
lacking. Announcement that war time
restraints on trading We're again in
order dominated sentiment from the
outset and made holders increasingly
nervous, whereas sellers grew more
and more aggressive.
Oats ranged lower with corn. Fa-
vorable crop reports more than offset
seaboard inquiry.
Provisions were finally carried down
by the breaks in the grain market,
Higher prices on hogs stimulated some
buying but then were lost sight of.
Closing prices:
Corn-July, $1.5SB; Sept. $1.5S Y
