CHICAGO, Nov. l3.-Pre- war prices
made their first appearance today in
the grain market. Corn and oats wcre
sacrificed wholesale in the trading
pits until both cereals were squarely
on an ante-bellum basis Of value.
Transactions in wheat were also OF
great volume with price slashing in
progress. December wheat closed at
Sl.7c. December corn Mt &C SIS. and
December oats at "A 5-s.
Reported unsettled general bust
ness conditions furnished tho back
grounu and large supplies of feed
stuffs were said to be in sight with
live stock being rushed to market, in
stead of being held on farms, accord
Ing to reports. Wheat showed itself
the most sensitive OF any Board OF
trade commodity and stopped falling
only after having broken 3-4 cents
bushel. Bear leaders conceded that
farmers were, to n large extent. sue
cessfully maintaining a holding policy
as to wheat. but took the ground that
the wheat must be sold some time,
and that in the meantime Canada was
supplying any demand In this coun-
try, and was furthermore glutting
United States markets with Canadian
cattle as well.
Persistent liquidation of corn, es-
peciaily. was explained by bears as
due to the necessity of n price low
enough to induce consumers to stock
up ahead OF requirements and to i'm
pei buying on the part of investors.
This view. however, was being ac-
lively combated late in the day by
the bulls with the question as to
whether, with pre-war prices already
attained. the period of dehation was
not now fully over. at least. as far
as cereals were concerned.

Frances Willard Evening a
Methodist Church.

On Sunday evening at the Metho-
dist church in the first snow of the
season, the memorial service to Fran
ces Willard was held.
Two especially interesting features
were the vocal solos by two little
girls, Lucy Scurry, who gave story
song, Caught" with piano accom-
paniment by Mrs. Tillman, Frances
Willard Johnson, who sang, "John
Barleycorn, Goodbye" accompanied
on the piano by Mrs. C. E. May.
The prize essays were presented
to the four winners as mentioned else
where by Mr.. T. B. Greneker.
The address on the Life and Work
of Frances Willard was made by Rev.
G. w. NJ. Taylor, whose remarks were
very entertaining and appropriate.
Now that the work for which she
so faithfully labored is largely ac-
complished, her fame and greatness
is being more and more appreciated.
Had she received half the admiration
and encouragement in her life time
she might have been left to tell a
longer story to the ages.

Facts About Peanuts.

Secured by County Agent Carwile
from N. E. Winters, Agronomist and
farmer of Virginia and Texas.
Peanuts remove more plant food
than cotton. An average peanut crop
cf 1000 pounds of cured nuts and
1000 pounds of cured hay removes
from the soil Is pounds of phos-
phoric acid, 81 pounds of potash and
contains IA pounds of nitrogen, 2-3
of which is taken from the air if
grown in soil sweetened with lime
stone calcium carbonate, sc to SO
per cent pure.)
The average peanut crop takes
from the soil four times as much
phosphoric acid and six times as
much potash as the average cotton
crop of one third of bale when all
stalks and leaves are returned to the
soil.
We must fertilize heavily for pea
nuts, using enough acid phosphate
to provide both phosphoric acid and
sulphur as plant foods, and enough
muriate of potash or kainit to supply
potash as plant food. In Coastal
Plains and sandy soils, all of which
are low in potash, it is very impor-
tant that We use enough potash in
the fertilizer to at least satisfy crop
requirements. 500 pounds acid phos-
phate, SO pounds nitrate of soda, 60
pounds of muriate of potash (or $50
pounds of kainit) will take care of
the average peanut crop.
Mix at least 1000 pounds of fine

v Ground 200 mesh) limestone.

ly ground (10O mesh) limestone, or
500 pounds of the 200 mesh lime
stone in the drill before planting the
nuts. Peanuts, like all legumes, peas.
beans, clovers, or alfalfa, grow bet
ter in soil sweetened with lime.
For keeping up soil fertility under
peanut production follow the crop
with Abruzzi rye and vetch for plow-
ing under.
If you are using one ton or more
of limestone per acre in your crop
rotation every three to five years, no
application of limestone in the drill
will be needed directly for the pea
nuts. Otherwise the use of limestone
directly on the peanut is very impor-
tant.
Mr.. Winters has had thirteen years
of experience growing peanuts and
several of them under boil weevil
conditions, along with cotton.

much more could be raised if it were
needed. There is no doubt about it,

MILLIONS NEED PEPTO-
MANGAN
In Many Homes Better Health
is Simply a Matter of
Better Blood
PEPTo.MANGAN IMPROVES THE
BLOOD
Composed of Approved Blood
Making Elements-Put up in
Liquid and Tablet Form

Are you tired and weak and
"blue?" Do you say to yourself,
"What's the use of living? What do
l ge tout of life, dragging through
this drab existence in this unhappy
way?"
You don't feel we'll and you don't
know why you have so little energy
to do anything, and you get all tired
out before it is done. There are mil
lions in busy America that have just
such feelings now and then, and they
are to be pitied. But there is help.
Unless some serious malady is at the
bottom of their trouble, a few weeks
of Pepto-Mangan will work Won
derful change. Pepto-Mangan puts
new vigor in to the blood and the
blood is the life fluid. With plenty of
rich, red blood coursing through
ones body one is pretty likely to feel
good and vigorous and be strong and
look hearty.
Go to your druggist and ask for
"Gude's Pepto-Mangan." Be sure to
say "Gude's." If "Gude" is not on
the package it is not Pepto-Mangan.
1t is put up in both liquid and tablet
form. Tell the druggist which you
prefer. There is no difference in me-
dicinal value.-Adv.

Home Demonstration Notes
(Mrs. Vaughn's Recipe).

IF YOU have a room that you wish
TO furnish, or if your daughters
room is not as attractive as you
would like for it to be, why not try
the plan that was demonstrated at
tbe State Fair last October?
A good sized dry goods box was
covered on top with blue burlap, ana
had blue flowered cretonne pleated
around the sides. Above this hung
a mirror, and in front of this dress
ing table stood a small box covered
with cretonne which served as seat.
In a corner of the room wardrobe"
was made by tacking burlap hang
ines on a shelf. The window had
white, inexpensive curtains, with Gre
tonne valance and hangings. Under
the window was a long box covered
with buralp and cretonne, which serv
ed as a clothes chest as we'll as WIN
dow seat. The wash stand was made
like the dressing table-only smaller
and with white oil cloth on top. A
burlap-covered screen stood in front
of the wash stand.
Any color of cretonne or other
suitable material could be used, and
it would not be necessary to use bur-
lap at all. The bed should be prefer
ably white iron, and the small table
and chairs would look better if en-
ameled white. Rugs should be mex
pensive, such as grass OR rag ones,
and should harmonize in color with
the hangings.
If lack of funds keeps you from
having your house painted or screen
ed, why not raise chickens and tur-
keys, or potatoes and peanuts or sell
some of your fancy work. There are
always ways for women and girls to
make money-and life is too short
not to have our homes and surround
ings as sanitary and attractive as we
can make them.
"Rocks."
Try these for school lunch. They
keep moist and in excellent condition
for considerable time.
