Bolshevik Russia.
The majority OF the greens" are
deserters from the Bolshevik ar

found representatives OF early
every political element in the cOun-

no governmental plans. should they

DER|DES MOVEMENT
Profess to Have No Faith in Farmers
Cotton Pledge, Vet Appear
Worried.

According to reports being receiv-
cd by the central office of the North
Carolina Cotton Association, North
err! newspapers and spectators who
have all the decencies and comforts
of life, yet want the cotton producers
to go back to slave wages, are going
to learn a much needed lesson this
year. In it's market comment yester-
day The New York Commercial says:
REPORTS that the farmers of the South
intend to curtai1 planting are not
credited. The bears say the plan has
always failed and will fail again. The
weather for the last few days is ideal
and insures a big crop" The Phila-
delphia Ledger vigorously denounces
the South for proposing a reduction in
acreage yet goes on to say: Few
persons who know the South fear pro-
nounced reduction. Many will preach
curta1lment and promise curtailment
and then go and plant more cotton
themselves in the expectation that
their advice will be followed by the
majority, and they, the shrewd ones,
will profit by raising big crop
IL LAS Deeu So nduy L1meS. IL
probably will be so many times more
The South is great for resolving but
not SO great for performing up to the
resolutions"
None Of them doubt the practicable
fly of our plans. They believe that
all our promises are "hot air. and
big talk. and that we will act exact
~ opposite and are betting their
money that we will not keep our
promises by contracting to deliver the
cotton that we have not yet planted
at 20 cents per pound. Some one is
going to get badly stung and it isn't
going to be the Southern farmer as
he realizes that the only way to keep
OF prosperity is to raise a big crop
Of cotton.

Cotton Producers On Read
To Victory

From every county, town and ham.
let in Texas come reports that farm
ers are signing pledges to curtail
their cotton acreage this year at least
80 per cent of last years acreage.
Some individual farmers even limit
their planting to one-han of their
last years acreage.
Reports from other cotton states in
dictate a like action by the cotton
growers.
An unusual feature Of the movement
is the active, enthusiastic participa-
ton of bankers, merchants and profess
sional men. All glasses have awak
ened at last to the necessity for CO
operation in an effort to secure a
legitimate price for the south's cot
ton.
Hitherto the farmers have not act
ed in concert and they had little as
sistance from other classes They
did the best they could to control the
market for better prices; but without
organization their efforts eliminated
in windy, wordy resolutions and still
lower prices for their cotton.
The methods by which the govern
ment secured cooperation in prevent
ing foodstuffs going too high in price
during the war have been an object
lesson to the cotton growers, and they
are approrriating in some measure
those methods to prevent cotton from
going too low ia price in time Of
peace. They are signing pledge cards
to raise less cotton this year and
by limiting the supply increase the
demand and the price. They have
passed beyond empty resolutions for
publication. They are doing some
thing tangible. Actions speak louder
than words. They are in the road
to the goal. Let them keep in the
middle of the road" and they will
reach that goal.
Once they have demonstrated their
power to secure living prices for their
great agricultural product, they will
have won economic independence for
themselves, their children and their
chfldren's children in the years to fol-

WAR HAD WROUGHT CHANGE
Doughboy Found 1t Hard to Realize
the Difference Two Years
of War Had Made.

A new story of the Red Cross bag
comes from Harvey D. Gibson, former
Red Cross commissioner for Europe
and president of the Liberty National
bank of New York. He got the story
from one of the workers in hospital
hut in DIXON. Everybody who has ever
seen a wounded soldier knows the bag
of gaudy cretonne with the little Red
Cross in the corner, in which each boy
keeps the bit of shrapnel the doctor
dug out of his knee, the last letter
from home, the picture Of his girl, his
toothbrush and all his most cherished
possessions. One of the boys In the
DIXON hospital had just been presented
with his bag, a pink and-whlte one. He
accepted it gracefully, then he began
to laugh. Say" he declared, "if some
one had told me two years ago that
I'd be agoin' to war with wrist watch
on one wrist and q bracelet"-he held
out his identification disk-"on the
other and a cretonne bag in my hand
Say, I'd have pasted him one"

Scientists Hold That Very
Thin Line Divides Animal
and Vegetable Kingdoms

Vegetables have thoughts, and can
record them in writing, according to
the assertions of an Indian scientist,
who has made a close study of their
emotions, and who has invented an
elaborate instrument through which
their writings are recorded in a sys-
TEN of marks and dots.
Vegetables do not pass through
such rapid emotions as human be-
ings, the scientist says, so he excites
their emotions, causing more rapid
writing, and reads the message later.
After giving them a dose of potas-
SUM cyanide they become dopey, and
the "pen" writes nothing. By max
ing them drunk with intoxicating
vapors the dots are as struggling as
toper's footsteps. Finally he kills the
vegetable with heat, the dots descend
ing as the temperature rises until at
40 degrees Fahrenheit the dots
bound suddenly upward, then stop.
Other scientists give credence to
the observations, saying that very
thin line divides the animal and
vegetable Kingdoms.

In his book, "Winnowed Mem

he once met a quiet American gentle

mentioned the well-knOwn poem "Jim

BEST DAIRY BARN LOCATION
Ii Is of Importance That Building Be

1t is not necessary that the dairy
barn be deliberately built out Of ex-
pensive materials, suggest the dairy
husbandrymen at the Illinois expert
ment station, but it Is Of Importance
that 1t be comfortable, durable and
sanitary and that 1t be well located
and arranged. 1t is essential that the
roof be waterproof, the sides wind
proof and the stable floor substantial
and easily cleaned.
1t is Of some Importance that the
site for the dairy barn shall have good
drainage. The yards should never
slope toward the barn. 1t is also we'll

milk and buttermilk. Most Of the men
buy a pint each time. The foreman
stated that since the drinking of milk
has become so popular with the men
not only Is their efficiency improved
but they are more contented and even
tempered.
Specialists are giving lectures In
many large department stores, and ex-
plain that a glass Of cool milk Is not
only refreshing on a hot day but also
furnishes a definite amount Of nour-
ishment.
In New Haven, Conn, the manager
Of one department store had posters
made entitled, "Why We Should Drink
Milk" and sold six milk tickets for
Is cents to the employees, no attempt
being made to show profit on the
sales. Half-pint bottles of milk were
distributed to the clerks in the middle
of forenoon and afternoon. Straws
were furnished with each bottle of
milk, as the manager believes that too
often people drink milk too fast, dhus-
ing bodily discomfort.

DAIRY NOTES

Screen your dairy rooms against
flies.
Wheat bran is eaten readily by
young calves.
Clean milk is impossible If cows are
not kept clean.
Perfect circulation Of air in the sta
BILE means more milk.
The dairyman who is too saving Of
feed cheats himself as well as the herd.
Cleanliness is the beginning and the
end of the gospel Of pure milk produc-
ton.
Much attention should be given to
feeding calves If they are to become
good dairy animals.
The darkened stable by day and pas
ture by night for the dairy cows help
boost the cream check.
