A Widows Gratitude.

A woman living in the village of
Milford, N. Y, who lost her husband
by death, sent the following to an
Otsego County newspaper:
"Mr. Editor: / desire to thank
the friends and neighbors most
heartily, in this manner, for the
united aid and cooperation during
the illness and death of my late hus-
band, who escaped from me by the
hand of death on Friday last while
eating breakfast. To the friends
and all who contributed so willingly
toward making the last moments
and funeral of my husband a
success l desire to remember most
kindly, hoping these few lines will
find them enjoying the same bless
ing. l have also a good mich
cow and roam gelding horse eight
years old, which 1 will sell cheap.
God moves in mysterious way his
wonders to perform. He plants his
footsteps on the sea and rides upon
the Storm also a black and white
shote, very low"

Lonely Emma.

Emma Goldman's sad and lonely
as she treads distant shore, and she
signs, "Ah me, If could only see the
States once more!" In a recent dis
NAL letter she complained of her dis
tress, and her furrowed cheeks grow
wetter with her scalding tears, ]
guess. BY her friends she seems for
saken, no one writes to her, says she I;
and she eats her bread and bacon,
weeping by weeping sea. By the
ocean wet and clammy she sits down
to sigh and yearn, wishing that her
Uncle Sammy would permit her to
return. When she lived beneath his
banner she was boosting every crime,
acting in beastly manner, raising
thunder all the time. Absence makes
the heart grow fonder, as the dippy
poet raved, and old Emma, over yon-
der, doubtless wishes she'd behaved.
For this country is the slickest that
was ever out of doors, and that per-
son is the sickest who is banished
from its shores. And the folks who
grumble, grumble, at our bulwarks
every day, should get wise and take
a tumble to the things the exiles say.

Important in Farm Development.

In the Countrywide Plan for agri-
cultural development and better
ment the three lis" Lime, Legumes
and Livestock, are important factors.
If these are neglected or ignored we
cannot hope to make farming perma-
nent, lasting and satisfactory. That
is the way L. P. Gabbard, agricul-
tural agent, puts it up to his farmers
in Loudon County.
During the last year the farmers
of Loudon County used 1000 tons
Of pulverized limestone according to
Mr.. Gabard. This is more than has
been used in any previous year, but
this year it is the aim of the agent
and progressive farmers of that coun-
ty to increase the above amount a
number of times. No argument is
necessary to convince the successful
farmer that lime will help him to Sc
cure better results. Much more lime
would be used if it could be secured
more conveniently says Mr.. Gabbard.
Some communities and individual
farmers have solved this difficulty
very satisfactorily by crushing rock
on their own farms. This is prob
ably the cheapest and most satisfac-
tory way to get lime when sufficient
labor can be had to do the work and
ready supply of rock is at hand.
Others who are convenient to ship
ping points order their lime from
concerns which manufacture lime for
agricultural purposes.
make arrangements for your lime.
July, August, September and October
are good months in which to apply
lime. In fact it is good time to
use lime any time the cropping sys-
!, tenn will permit it's application. The
clovers should be given chance
along with the lime. if the best re-
suits are expected. Agent Gabbard
urges the farmers of his county to
begin early and make Loudon lead
er this year in the use of lime. Farm
ers in other counties would do well
to follow the example of farmers of
this county and use more lime, more
legumes and raise more livestock.

Card from Dental Association.

While we sit attentively listening
to the roll call of members. we hear
no response to the name of DR.. ]. H.
Park, of Union City, who was called
away from our midst by the all
powerful voice of God. We miss him
from our ranks. Though of a quiet
nature, yet he exerted telling in
fiuence for good. He was county d.
rector of the Preparedness League
and did great work for the govern
ment in preparing our soldier boys
for the World War. He has the high
est record of service of any individual
member of the league in our State.
DIR. Park graduated from Wander
bilt University, School of Dentistry,
in 1918, settled in Union City in
1914 and became a member of the
State Dental Society about 1915. He
was Shriner in good standing. He
leaves wife to mourn his absence.
We, the. Tennessee State Dental
Association, mourn with her the loss
of our brother and extend to her our
heartfelt sympathy. We feel with
her that the departed spirit has been
waited heavenward to the great
eternal home, there to rest in peace
evermore. Committee,

Substitute for Gasoline.

Hail to the lowly and sticky mo-
lasses!
From it is being produced motor
alcohol substitute for gasoline.
Discovered by J. P. Foster, chem
list of one of the big sugar planta-
tions on the island of Maui, Hawaii,
production within the next three
months will be sufficient to furnish
fuel oil for all cars on the islands
should a gasoline shortage occur.
According to the first reports of
the new fuel, brought to San Fran
cisco by District Manager of the
Goodyear Tire G Rubber Company
of California, motor alcohol" gives
more power, greater mileage, easier
starting and more freedom from car
bon than gasoline. 1t can be used
without an adjustment of the car
bureter.
The new fuel is performing in
automobile, marine, stationary, truck
and tractor engines. In a SO hour
test made with rs horsepower trac-
tor the consumption of motor alco-
hol" was four gallons an hour COM
pared to four and half gallons of
gasoline in the same engine on the
same work. Examination of the cyl
inders showed most of the old carbon
deposit removed and the remainder
so soft it could be removed with the
fingers.
Sugar plantations have been let
ting their molasses run to waste or
burning it for the potash recovery.
Nitrogen and phosphoric acid are al
SO valuable by products of molasses.
Now, however, production of the new
fuel is found to be more profitable
than obtaining other by-products.
At present there is enough mo-
lasses available to produce 100000
gallons of motor lcohol"-enough
to supply all automobiles in Hawaii.
Development of this industry will re-
lease shipping space formerly used
for transporting gasoline from the
United States.
