Roosevelt Says Americans
Must Fight Many Battles
in Next Decade.

Lieut.. Col. Theodore Roosevelt was the
principal speaker yesterday at the cele-
bration of the 14Sd anniversary of the
Battle of Long Island in Prospect Park,
Brooklyn, under auspices OF the Kings
County Historical Society. Col. Roose-
welt dealt largely with the effects Of the
war, declaring that the impulse OF pa
triotism which had spread over the
country as a result of the conflict had
renovated the national conscience.
+ Many of the men who Joined the
army and navy" he said. were, before
the war, German-Americans, Irish
Americans, Italian-Americans, &c. But
think you will find now that those who
served in the war are 100 per cent. pure
Americans and always will be. whether
we were fortunate enough to serve In
Europe, or whether our duty kept us on
this side during the war. we all put
something into the United States. That
has had two effects In the first place
IL has made us better people. In the
second place, where any one has put
something in he is willing to put some
thing more in. Where we have given
love and sacrifice We are willing to give
more love and sacrifice
I'VE have as many battles to fight in
this country during the next decade as
we fought in the last two years The
first is against the Bolsheviki. the l. w.
W., the red tagged Socialist and their
kindred Anarchists. To me this Is SIM
pie. There Is only one way that / see
to deal with them. They are criminals
4
And the next thing is riotng. II
ever I am elected to any office the people
can know exactly where l stand on riot
ing Rioting Is rioting and arson is ar
son. While riotlng is going or no other
question should be debated. Put down
the rioting first and then, and not until
then, discuss the right and wrong of the
question.
Another thing we have to met in this
country is class feeling We must not
have class feeling. You and I must be
able to strike hands with the capitalist
and with the laborer, when they stand
for straight Americanism. We must not
feel that there has to be capitalist
party. a labor party, a women's party.
We are all Americans and we must not
get into class parties Of one sort or an
other We must, in the coming decade,
adopt a platform OF sound, conservative
liberalism. We must not be carried of
our feet. We must set our faces to the
future with the determination to go for
ward in social and industrial questions
not backward"
Other features of the celebration were
community singing led by Herbert SAM
mond, an army song leader, and an ad.

missioner of Education, who told of his

ADVANTAGES OF FARM MULE
Than Horse-Also Less Subject to Digestive Disorders.

The mule has certain decided ad- vantages as a work animal. For the man who does not know how or is un- willing to give his horses Il reason able amount of care. the mule is the better animal, because he will take better care of himself than will the horse.
 The mule is naturally more able to stand hot weather than is the horse. He will slow down when the work be- comes hard anG the weather hot, whereas horse will begin to fret, and thus will be even more likely to become overloaded. Hence, mule is safer in the hands of careless or in- coGpetent driver.
 The mule requires less grain and will readily consume more roughage than will workhorse doing the same amount of work. The mule is less subject to digestive disorders.
 Another important consideration is that n mule does not deprecate in value so much from age and hard usage as does horse.

Get New Kidneys /!

The kidneys are the most overworked organs of the human body, and when they fail in their work of hltering out and throwing of the poisons developed in the system, things begin to happen.
 One of the first warnings is pain or stiff ness in the lower part of the back highly colored urine; loss of appetite; indigcS- tion; irritation, or even stone in the blad- der. These symptoms indicate condition that may lead to that dreaded and fatal malady, Bright's disease. for which there IS said to be no cure.

Prepared by the United States Depart

 During the winter beef steers should be kept in q dry lot and provided with a windbreak from the north or given free access to an open shed. In some sections of the South weather condi- tons alone may not justify open sheds, but when the saving of feed and ma nure and the protection of pastures from tramping in wet weather are con- Sidered such sheds will prove to be profitable investments. Breeding ani- mals may require even more protection during severe weather than an open shed would provide.

WILL HOLD PRESENT CROP
Will Demand Remunerative Price and Reduce Acreage One-Third-To
 Form State Associatons-Next
 Meeting at Memphis Probably.

New Orleans, La.--The work of the cotton convention, which closed here, may be summed up as follows:
 The convention declared for per manent organization. It will meet again within short time. probably at Memphis.
 Pledged to hold the present crop for remunerative price, and to te- duce acreage onethir6
 Resolved to brand those who shoul1 and who do not cooperate as slackers and undesirable citizens.
 State cotton acreage reduction as sociations will be formed to carry ou- the pledges of the convention.
 Delegates to the greatest cotton convention ever held in the South came from every state that grows cotton, with the one exception of Arizona.
 The New Orleans session is over. The convention itself has just begun. Memphis will probably be the next meeting place.
 It has been decided to make this convention a permanent organiza- ton. Adjournment was had subJec; to the call of the chairman, Gov. Pleasant of Louisiana. The call may come within d few weeks or a few days That depends upon develop ment5.
 Each delegate goes home to be- ha G,1l safe and sane farming. Each is piedS- ed to work and to carry on that work regardless of what may happen to the price of cotton. The price may go up or it may go down. That will make no difference in so far as Vie effor>s of the committees for better farming are concerned
 II is a notable fact that no time was taken up by any member of the convention in attempting to blame and in abuse of the speculator on ru- lures. There was not even show of resentment against cotton consuming establishments, which, for their own benefit and in disregard of just re- turn to the farmer, have been ham, mering prices down.
 The convention has seen-and It Is a hopeful sign--that the trouble lies at the door of the cotton farmer him self and with the man who supplies him credit and means for producing cotton.
 This convention has recognized the fact that the prosperity of the South has been imperiled because of over production. It has gone on record as ready and willing 10 apply the remedy.

 Sheep are extremely valuable as weed destroyers, and they can be shifted from field to field as crops per rows. In some parts of the country it is common practice to turn the lambs, at weaning time, into the corn fields, where they destroy weeds, but do not injure the corn. Where the corn ears stand up fairly high, sheep may be turned in after corn is laid by. They may eat an occasional ear that
