"Whilc the guns are silent on the west

most severe tests of his career.
There is no more natural impulse in
human being than longing for home In no
one more than soldier does the spirit

THE other day
We met mess sergeant,
Who told us, with
A self satisfied smirk
On his unintelligent face,
That he had boarded "
A $4,000 mess fund.
AS we thought
And our soul
Revolted
OF the stark procession
Of cherries meals
Those three thousand dollars
Represented,
And publicly, now,
In the name of a thousand
Ambitious young appetites
Despoiled
TO put, SNUG expression
On one well-fed face
We curse that mess sergeant. {.
May he stew
Eternally
In limitless vat
Of boiling gravy,
Whose bubbles, grease laden,
Burst in his face
Unendingly.
May his bones bleach
On an arid desert
Of BUTTERFLIES bread
Till the sun goes down
For it's farewell dip.
May he strangle
Forever
On clammy chains
Of macaroni, half baked,
Stretching infinitely
To the unimaginable depths
Of bottomless hells.
And may his small soul sizzle
In shoreless ocean
Of blazing beans
Till the dying gasp of time. {.
Amen. From The Bduouet.

COTTON ACREAGE REDUCTION.
Fairly Indications Point to IL Reol
Fight to tho Finish.

Columbia, March 1.-The cotton
.'ampaign is we'll under way, accord
ing to phone message Saturday
from j. S. Wannamaker, State chair
man. He is in communication over
long-distance with every county in
the State. In all but one or two a
complete organization was effected
and great enthusiasm was shown in
many counties.
In Orangeburg there was the
greatest meeting Of farmers in the
history Of the county. In Will
liamsburg the Court House was
packed. In Fairfield it was a big
success. F.. NJ. Wooten reports from
Kershaw that this was the greatest
meeting Of farmers and business
men in the history of that county.
From Anderson to Beaufort the pre-
>ailing note in the report is de
termination" The condition of the
roads cut down the attendance in
some counties, but Chairman Wan
namaker suggests that when the
farmers win this fight and save that
100000 that they would lose If
they were to let go the crop at
present prices they could pave the
roads of the State.
Game Worth Fighting For.
THE game is worth fighting for,
10 it not?" inquiries Mr.. Wanna
maker. ''Then let us fight It out
to conclusion. The result of Fri
days meetings shows that the farm
RS are aroused. Let them not grow
weary in the fight. 1t may be neces-
sary to make some sacrifices to win,
but no great victory Is worth the
name unless 1t had to be fought for"
The signing Of the pledges will be
kept up until every cotton farmer
IN the State has been visited and is
listed Sor ~blacklisted The names of
the selfish will be known. 49,
The cooperation of people of all
occupations in this fight is very
noticeable, and Chairman Wanna
maker says that it is developing into
great patriotic movement. The
farmers are giving ten cents per
acre to the fund used to keen the
campaign going.
Reports from other States re-
ceived to-day show conclusively that
this movement has succeeded all

There was some discussion as to
the amount Of commercial fertilizer
TO be used per acre. A letter from
J. s. Wannamaker, State chairman,
concerning this subject was re-

r. 1T has been decided to arrange
the pledge on commercial fertilizer
so as to permit the same amount OF

Our attention has been called to
the practice Of certain magistrates
imposing sentences in certain cases
