FUGITIVE FROM INFORMATION

Senator Borah of Idaho is keenly
characterized by the New York World
as "a fugitive from information" He
declines to attend the White House
dinner to which the president invited
him, along with the other members of
the Foreign Relations Committee, to
hear the why's and wherefores of each
lause in the constitution of the league
of nations; and his exquisite reason is
that nothing could induce me to sup
port this league as outlined in this
proposed constitution, or anything
like it." When Senator Borah avows
that NOTHING could win him to the
support of an idea which the best
minds of Europe and America alike
earnestly champion, he evidently
means what he says, for even before
the constitution was drafted or the
barest outlines of the league an
nounced he eruptively declared that
he would never vote for such prop
osition though it were advocated "by
the Saviour of mankind" AS bear
ing upon the fortunes of the league
Of nations, Senator Borah's attitude
is quite inconsequential; the sun will
rise in spite of fog and wind. But as
a specimen of fozzilized bigotry the
Idaho Senator's pronouncements, if
they be remembered at all, will be as
curiously interesting to Americans of
the next generation as the Piltdown
skull is to an NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS.
ia Journal.
The situation is becoming very SER
ious in the eyes of the Republicans,
and this was all Mr.. Borah could do
to attract attention to himself for
even a half-hour. He is probably
feeling better ere this, and if not, we
would prescribe bottle of Mr.. Tom
Taggart's celebrated "Pluto water"

METHODIST CHURCH NEWS

Sunday School was well attended
Sunday morning. The School is grow
ing more enthusiastic and the work
that is being done is wonderful.
Rev. John P. Erwin preached two
very strong gospel sermons Sunday
to good congregations.
The growth of the choir is notable
and the special music Sunday was
excellent.
Mr.. E. G. Gilbert is Treasurer OF
the Church Benevolences. Pay your
subscriptions to Missions, etc., to him.
The Every Member Canvass Sun
day afternoon was success. Those
who could not be seen at that time
will have an opportunity to contribute
to the benevolences.
Prayer meeting and the Sunday
night service have been changed to
1880.
On next Sunday at eleven o'clock
will occur the communion service, al
so the reception of new members,
baptisms, and the hour will close
with a fifteen minute gospel address
by the Pastor. The Pastor will also
preach at 1880 Sunday evening and
a cordial welcome is extended to you
at both services.
Epworth League
The League met promptly at p.
m. Sunday evening and held very
successful business meeting. From
reports of various departments the
League is "Going Over The Top" with
banners flying. This organization
has always been one of the livest
things connected with the Chuyh
and has done marvellous work, being
of wonderful assistance to the pastor
and Church.
There were about one hundred out
Sunday evening filled with earnest
ness to do the Masters will.
The League was delighted to have
Austin Boatner back with them
again. Austin was always loyal
member and worker in the League
and was greatly missed when he left
for service overseas last Spring.
But now that he is back again he will
fall in line and soon be back working
in his old way.
On next Sunday at $50 the Lea
que will meet in the League Room
and a special program will be rem
dered. You are cordially invited to
come out and enjoy service that
will prove both interesting and prof.
table to you.

possible loss on the cotton market
Buy that ticket now. 1t is easy tx
do. Let me tell you how to buy I
special rate farmers safety tickle
for home in 1919" The directions
for getting that ticket are as follows
A Safe Farming Program
First,-A home garden for every
farm family in the South to supply
the home needs for the maximum
number of days in the year, with
sufficient surplus to be canned, stored
or dried for future use, including ar
ample supply of Irish potatoes and
wherever possible, small patch OF
cane or sweet sorghum to produce
the home syrup.
Second,-The production of corr
on every farm sufficient to maintain
the family and the live stock in am
pie food and feed for a year.
Third,-Produce the hay and for
age necessary to amply supply the
livestock on the farm for one veal
with an excess for the sake of safe
ty. Special attention should be giver
to the summer legumes, velvet beans
cowpeas, soy beans, and peanuts, es
pecially for feeding purposes.
Fourth,-Produce the meat, eggs
and milk for every family on the
farm. This means the production OF
hogs, cattle and poulty and the care
and keeping of good family cows
Livestock is necessary in order to eat
up the otherwise waste products OF
the farm and convert them into cash
Fifth,-Produce your own cotton
on a moderate acreage, we'll prepared
and well tended. Secure the best
seed of the very best varieties.
Sixth,-Plan to meet all family
and farm expenses from the surplus
proudcts of the farm outside OF the
cotton crop, and to have in the fall
of 1919 good supply of laying hens,
at least two milk cows for every
family, hogs in the lot to fill the
family smokehouse during the winter,
potatoes either in the bank, the cellar
or the storehouse for winters use,
canned or dried vegetables and fruits
and a barrel of molasses for the FAM
lily: acrib of corn sufficient to last
until the next crop is made, with
good storage facilities for protect
ing same, and ample hay and forage
for the livestock.
That is the Farmers ticket for
home. If every farmer in the South
will buy one of these tickets, we are
satisfied that he will not gamble or
an excess acreage in cotton.
The above from the pen of DIR
Bradford Knapp, chief of Southern
Extension work is earnestly com
mended to the farmers of Cobb coun
ty.

A TICKET FOR HOME
BEFORE YOU GAMBLE
To Farmers And Business Men In
Cotton Territory OF
Georgia

Some people say that stock gam
blers and race track followers used
to have the custom of buying "A
Ticket for Home" before putting all
their money on one plunge or before
betting their last cent on the races.
Then if worst came to worst they
could at least get home and make
a new start.
Before deciding to gamble on the
cotton acreage in 1919, Mr.. Farmer
and Mr.. Business Man, hadn't you
better buy a ticket for home? Safe

selves and your families by producing
the food for the south upon the farms

81 600 FOR STATE WAR MAP
Army Officer Procures Action to Fa-
ciIitate Movement OF TroopA

Pierre.-Bridge whist for stakes is
included in a new ~anti-gambling bill
which is being prepared. Under the
bill, gambling is any risking OF money
or property of value in any game OF
chance with cards or devices and there
is no distinction as to the class OF
games or where they are played or
how the risk is incurred. In other
words the bill stands for the theory
that gambling is gambling however
the risk is taken and sthe penalty ap-
plies in n and all cases where it oc-
ours.
Maj. Borden of the United States
army has procured action through the
military committees OF the two houses
for an appropriation Of $1,000 for a
war map OF the state, which is to in
dictate all topograph war and other
data which would be Of fienefit in the
movement OF troops in case OF need
for such movement into or across
South Dakota.
The undertAkers are here asking
for a change in the embalmers' law
OF the state to bring the requirements
for such practice up to those Of the
surrounding states. They say that in
this state they are attempting to work
under a ~20-year-old law and that their
business has changed materially
within that time and no certificates

The long fight Of Rapid City for
greater recognition for the school Of
mines appears to be approaching the
point where a clear sky can be seen.
The house. without a dissenting vote
passed the bill to give the college an
appropriation of 100000 for a new
engineering building. Its chance OF
going through the senate is bright.
After two days of discussion the SEN
ate passed the first of the series OF
bills prepared by the state tax com
mission to cover the provisions OF the
amendment adopted last fall. 1t is
the mortgage registration tax act
which provides a registration tax OF
approximately n mill per year for the
life Of a mortgage in lieu Of all other
taxation on this class of property.
The tax is to be paid at the time of
recording Of the mortgage.
Representative Cock has introduced
his county hospital bill. The larger
towns in the more sparsely settled Sec
tons of the state found that they had
q heavy burden to carry with the pre-
valent epidemic last fall and the pres
ent bill opens the way for handing
such situations through county organ
izations instead Of leaving the towns
TO handle it at their own expense.
