Letter to Joe's Father

Letter to Joe's Father
 The letter written by Queen Marie to the father was as follows:
 eff you are like your son, you will not be astonished to get this letter from me, though certainly it is the last person probably you would imagine you would get letter from. I want to tell you that your son is quite well and working as only he can work, with came into my life at an hour when I and my country were sorely tried and he has set about helping me and my people with the unselfish complete ness you probably know of him. At a time when Rumania was completely abandoned by her allies, because her situation was so desperate, your son did not forsake our cause, just because he had shaken hands with me promis- ing that he would not do so-and since then at every emergency he has been faithfully at my side.
 "Once he was very ill-a sort of stroke after flying too often and too high in an airplane, as other com munications were difficult and slow between Russia and Rumania. I did by best for him during that time, which was most trying for man of his activity During his convalescence my little daughter and I looked after him for two months, so as to keep him very quiet and make to a certain de- gree inaction supportable. Now since some time he is quite well again and working harder than ever.
 Keen for Dangerous Jobs
 "I can not explain to you all of his activities. They would fill volumes, but knowing him better than I do, I suppose you can imagine that they are for the good of others, and that when ever a job is either difficult or dan gerous it is the one he is most keen to undertake. After much distress our country has been freed from her in vaders, but there is still much to do for it, as the misery is very great. Your son has promised to stand by me and help me help others as much as he can. I think you must be proud to have such son."
 The letter is signed Marie, Queen of Rumania"
 The queen of Rumania is a grand daughter of the late Queen Victoria and daughter of the late Duke of Edinburgh. She is considered the most beautiful of the royal women of Europe. Inclosed in the letter re. ceived by MT. Boyle were two photo. graphs, one showing the queen as a Rumanian Red Cross nurse and the other was taken with her little daugh. ter mentioned in the above letter.
 It is also of interest that Frank Slavin, his prizefghter friend and part. ner, enlisted in the Canadian forces when 5S years old, after camouflagine as to his real age, and that after ren. dering much valiant service on the western front, was invalided home.
 Mrs. Boyle is also we'll known in Seattle and Canada, where she was active in war work. Whether she is with her husband now is not known.

Even at present high prices no one
can plant all or nearly all cotton, BUY
food and grain at present prices from

It's a time above all others to play
safe; to produce all possible food'

CAMPAIGN FOR BETTER COTTON

Because the best yielding varieties
of cotton produce 20, 80, and even 40
per cent more than the poor varieties,
as shown by experimental results, a
campaign is being waged in Louisiana
by the State Agricultural College, in
cooperation with the United States
Department of Agriculture, to secure
the planting of only bodybuilding va
rieties. 1t is emphasized that what
ever variety is planted, it should be
pure; that is, every stalk should be
similar in appearance and in produc-
tive capacity to every other stalk.
The mixed or hybrid variety will new
er do this, for many of the stalks
will be barren or will be "shy" pro-
ducers. 1t is also emphasized that the
cotton grower should not depend
wholly upon improved seed as his
means for increasing yields, for fer
tile soil is the most important feature
in successful cotton growing at is a
very poor policy" says officials in
charge of the campaign, "to plant
very poor land in cotton at all"
