16 SENTENCED IN FRANCE
FOR SALES TO GERMANS
Showed more Bravery Than Prob
ity," Says Judge of Officers
in Deals for q. S. Goods.

MAYENCE, Thursday. December 25.
The trial of seventeen persons,
Army officers and civilians. in con-
nection with the sale to Germans of
goods from the American war stocks
purchased by the government ended
yesterday with the convictioI. of all
but one of the prisoners.
The accused included captain
d first lieutenant, three second lieu
tenants, gunner, two Germans, who
Ned rather than face trial, and nine
named Lepmann. The 'court-martial
hearing the case found all of the ac-
cused guilty, with the exception of
one second lieutenant. who was ac-
quilted.
Lepmann was sentenced to two
years Imprisonment and was fined
5000 francs. The officers, who in civil
life were commercial men, had each
won distinction during the war
showing, as the presiding officer of
the court-martial said, more BRAY
cry than probity. They were con-
demned to various terms of imprison-
ment. ranging from two years to five
months.
The civilians also received prison
sentences of varying lengths, with
chief charge against the officers was
that of accepting commissions to al
low cars of goods to pass through to
Germany. while the civilians were
charged with offering the bribes.

MILLIONS GOING
 INTO OIL INDUSTRY
BY HOLLAND

New York, October f3.-(SpeciaL )-MYi- lions of money arc going not merely speculatively but for actual development. into the oil producing industry of the United States It is phenomenon which can be directly traced to the worlds de- rnand for oil and the apprehension that our own supplies of oil may rapidly di- minsh- But this is not the only invest ment now in progress which represents the purchase of land. Some weeks ago it was rported in this column upon excel
 lent authority that so-called land boom prevailed throughout the north west Farmers who a year or two ago would have been glad to accept $l0o an acre for their farms are now tempted by offers three or four times as great. In part, this Is speculative movement. bu. not entirely, There is strong ten dency toward increased agriculture which. if it continues, will in all prob
 ability open up many of the hitherto un- cultivated areas in the northwest.
 Curicusly enough, while this movement in the northwest represents an immigra- ton of farmers from the states of the mid. Mississippi valley, the places which these farmers have left are now being taken by men who see excellent oppor- tunity for successful agriculture in Iowa, Illinois, Missouri and states farther west. Therefore, the farmers who are emigrating to the northwest are able to receive a much greater amount of money for the'r farms in these mid Mississippi valley states thar would have been pos sible two or three years ago.
 This movement, however is not con fined to the northwest or the middle west in fact. there are already some in- dications that farm lands east Of the Allegheny mountains are beginning to command prices which two or three years ago would have been deemed impossible.
 AS TT IS IN THE SOUTH
 Reports from many parts of the south assert that never before has the de- mand for farm lands, especially in the valley of the lower Mississippi. where very rich alluvia lands prevail, been as great as is the case at the present time. The diversihcation of the crops in the south, which has been established re- gently. and the profitable marketing of these crops, has turned the attention of farmers and planters to the ownership and especially of the rich bottom lands. which are to be found on both sides of the Mississippi from Missouri to the gulf.
 As result, lot k similar in kind to that which prevails in the northwest is reported to hc now in progress. An es- innate has been made by an expert au- thority of the amount of money involved in this recent land boom throughout the southern Mississippi valley. Pobably as much as s2o,O00 0oC rcssibly a good deal more illustrated the magnitude of this boom, as that has been characterized dur ing the past sumner It is reported that

some deals amounting to N.o0oooo have
 been made This would indicate that az
 ricuitnre upon very large scale is to
 be undertaken through the development Of these bottom lands by individuals or ] partners. or by corporations
 TT CAME SUDDENLY i This unprecedented land boom thros gin
 out many parts Of the south was a l sudden and almost unexpected develon i ment- Those who are familiar with inc purchase and sale of many million acres | Of these bottom lands say that the fu ventive which has led to this land boom Is to be found in the unparalleled pros perity which has characterized almost all the agricultural industries of the south Some of the plantations are reported to have made very large profits for the past two or three years
 Farmers who formerly cultivated corn. wheat and other grains in Iowa. Mis- souri, Illinois and even Indiana. who have sold their farms during the pre- vailing land boom for sums of money which few years ago they would not have thought possible to secure. appear | now to be turning their faces to the south, so that in the - bft4sr I year. or perhaps two watrs ranar ef

 , SOME BIG IANsF TRACTS While the tendenc- sa*sza .. .,- in rvortr farms Of not more than 160 acres. never theless there are some very large tracts or land owned by corporations or indi- Viduals A large company now is in pos- session of considerably more than eo0o0 acres, and other lumber companies have the titles to areas running from 4o. 900 fo bo0oo acres. Presumably it is the our pose to cut off the timber and then make the land available for agriculture. Tor all these timber lands are known to be rich in the qualities which make enor- nous crops possible as the renowned soil or the valley of the Nile. after that has been fertiiized by the yearly overflow. or that river.
 There are many economic reasons for this new and somewhat unexpected in crease in agriculture and consequently in- creased demand for farm lands. One is the fact that today the farmers of the United States have more money gained by the cultivation of the soil than they ever before possessed. Many of them are out of debt and carry large deposits to the banks Another reason is to be found in the increasing markets for any farm products, which are found in the larger cities. Transportation facilities have been so improved that 1t is now pos sble. at comparatively low cost and in short time. to carry the crops froaa the fields to these great markets
 This land boom, especially in the north west and the valley of the Mississippi is a phenomenon of the times and one, too. which a few years ago would not have been dreamed of

Crude Sulphur
A Jackson, Miss. special to the Man ufacturers Record says.

Jackson, Miss. special to the Man ufacturers Record says:
 Mississippi fertilizer manufacturers have discovered their independence of Spanish pyrtes as raw material for the making of sulphuric acid, as a re suit of the war. Lack of shipping cut off importations of the pyrites and made 1t necessary that other material be found.
 Crude sulphur. chiefly from the mines or Louisiana, was tried out and proved highiy successful. It is now used ex- clusively in the large plants of this state, and produces 99 per cent acid whereas the pyrites gave only 50 per cent.
 The manufacturers are satisfied with the domestic material and say they do not expect to return to the i'm. ported pyrites

Cornbing Won't Rid
Hair Of Dandruff

The only sure way to get rid Of
dandruff is to dissolve it, then you de-
stroy it entirely. To do this, get
about four ounces of ordinary liquid
arvon; apply it at night when re-
firing; use enough to moisten the
scalp and rub it in gently with the
finger tips.
Do this tonight, and by morning,
most if not all, OF your dandruff will
be gone and three or four more ap-
plications will completely dissolve and
entirely destroy every single sign and
trace of it, no matter how much dan
drun you may have.
You will find, too, that all itching
and digging Of the scalp will stop at
once, and your hair will be fluffy,
%lustrous, glossy, silky and soft, and
look and feel a hundred times better.
You can. get liquid at any
drug store. 1t is inexpensive and
never fails to do the work.
