WHERE UNCLE SANS MONEY
GOES.

We receievd few days ago the
following communication from the
american Union Against Militar-
ism," Washington, D. c., which we
think reveals very undesirable con-
dition. The article is headed, "Where
Uncle, Sans Money Goes" and is in
part as follows:
"According to the United States
Bureau of Standards, SO cents out
of every dollar of Uncle Sans mon
ey this year goes for war, past, pres
ent or to come.
"only one cent out OF every dol
lar goes for education and the i'm
provement of the public health.
sCopies of this remarkable analy-
sis of our national budget may be
secured on application to DR.. E. B.
Rosa, United States Bureau of STAN
dards, Washington, D. c..
"Whreeas the cities spend an av-
erage of Sc per capita for education
per year, and the states and private
agencies about So per year per cap
ita for education, Uncle Sam with
his huge billions only spends 6 cents
per capita for education-and some
of that goes to the Gland grant" col
leges for military drill.
"Without anybody in the country
realizing it, your Uncle seems to have
become obsessed with militarism to
the exclusion of the normal, balanc-
ed interest of government. Of course
the truth is that the army and navy
have developed technique" for ex-
tracing from Congress huge appor-
priations whereas the other depart
ments have not.
According to the analysis quoted
above, the national government is
levying tax of $50 this year upon
every man, woman and child in the
United States, and of this amount
S46.50 goes for war and militarism." ("

Dairy Cows Should Freshen in
L the Fall.

Clemson College, Jan. 31.-Dairy
cows should be bred to freshen in
the fall, says the dairy division Of
Clemson College. Each year more and
more farmers are realizing just how
important this practice is. There are
several good sound reasons support
ing it.
1. Fall freshening fits naturally
into all practical systems of farm ro-
tations because there is more time
for the dairy work in winter than in
summer. Labor is cheaper in winter
and more easily obtained. It is there
fore a good idea to give the COWS
their dry period when the summer
farm work is pressing.
2. 1t has been found that the fall
fresh cow will yield about fifteen to
twenty per cent more milk in the
year than the spring fresh COW; and
there is greater demand for dairy
products during the season in which
the fall fresh cow produces the bulk
of the milk.
8. The fall calf has distinct ad-
vantage over the spring calf. During
the early part of the calf's life it
lives almost entirely upon milk. AS
it natures, it consumes more feed,
especially grain. By spring it is time
for the fall calf to be weaned and 1t
can be put on grass, which is then
ready for it. On the other hand, the
spring calf is ready to be put on pas
ture during the winter months, when
there is no pasture. So, the fall calf
if practically as well grown one year
old as the spring calf at a year and
half.
a. The amount and value of ma
nure produced depends largely upon
the kind and amount of feed con-
sumed. Winter dairying serves to pro-
duce more manure at time of the
year when it can be saved.
The best time to have cows fresh
.en is between September Is, and De-
cember Is. Perhaps the best way to
put your breeding operations on the
fall basis is to "back up" that is,
have cows bred as soon after fresh
ening as possible and continue this
practice until the calving is at the
desired time. Cows bred in February
and March will calve in November
and December, and this will be the
first big step towards putting the
herd on the fall basis.

Rllda, and the music Of her voice in

Of its commonplaceness.
In fact, l came to-er-well, that

q skillful coiner Of translated Greek
phrases, the man was bungling dread
fully.
But, "Yes?" encouraged Hilda, smil-
ing ever so gently into his eyes.
"Oh, my dear!" cried the man, sud-
denly casting to the winds the Sapphic
love lore he had rehearsed and was try
ing in vain to recall. Longingly he
held out his arms, the woman came,
aid the desperate moment was over.
Then, little later: II haven't much
to offer you, dear. This summer be-
gins my sabbatical year, for which
had been saving. 1 want to place it's
disposal in your hands. Shall we stay
home and take a little house some.

very lavishly, I'm afraid-in Greece|
"Greece!" Hilda half closed her
eyes. She was seeing it all-the sky
blue waters, the yellow-gold sand,
broken columns on grassy hillsides,
white sails winding in and out the net
work of islands-Greecel
Wonderful! !" she whispered.
"And how soon could you leave
here?" he asked eagerly.
"My lease runs out next month" she
said.
Aghast, the man looked at her.
"Your lease2"
"Why, yes" she said simply. Then,
with true woman's intuition about the
man she loved, she OWNED his
thoughts. "You know Celia Prescott
and I are cousins, and recently we
both inherited some money from an
uncle out West. I gave up teaching
and came here. At the time 1t meant
great, great deal to me. Now-well,
it sinks into insignificance beside the
gift of your love!"
The straightforwardness and sim
plicity of her words carried convic-
tion. Tenderly John Latham kissed
his wife-to-be, thanking his guardian
angel he had sought her out before he
knew.

in Accomplishment.

There's satisfaction in doing what
others find hard to do. The secret
lies in the mind. Some folks get rich
by doing what is their recognized
rights. Others get rich by bringing
something new to the attention of men
and showing them how the new thing
will bless the race. This creates de-
mand and causes riches to flow to him
who controls it. But this new thing
must come from your mind. 7 Ink
and do and the world will take :: u
of you. Cease thinking and you put
up the sign of limitation and failure.

Big Augusta Hotel Destroyed
by Fire.

by Fire.
Augusta, Ca, February 4.-The
Bon Air, one of the leading winter
resort hotels in the South, was de-
stroyed by fire early this morning.
The flames originated in the dining
room and are attributed to some
fault with the electric lighting equip
ment. There were 260 guests in the
hotel. No one was injured though
many lost much of their personal be-
longings. Two men, Frank A Law
rance of New York, and M. 7. Wing
of St. Johnsbury, VT, who were ill
in the hotel, were removed to the
University Hospital, and statements
from there are that they are none
the worse physically for their ex-
perience.
The FIRE started in the dining room
and is attributed to damaged insula-
tion of electric wires. The guests have
found accommodations at nearby
hotel, at homes of residents on the
hill, the suburb in which the hotel
was located, while others left this af-
ternoon for their homes or for other
winter resorts.
The loss is s1,OO0,oOO. The insur-
ance is $550,oOO. There is tacit un-
derstanding that reconstruction will
be begun at once, though there is no
formal decision by the stockholders
as yet. The. hotel was frame struc-
ture and while it burned rapidly, the
guests left it in orderly manner and
there was remarkable absence of
hysteria. The owning company is cap
italized at 100000 and all the stock
is held in Augusta.
While the fire was in progress, res
idents in surrounding homes made
most hospitable overtures TO the flee
ing guests to become guests in their
homes. Those citizens who had no
rooms to offer were using automobiles
to get the half clad visitors to places
of refuge. Mr.. and Mrs. Nathan
Straus, who have cottage on The
Hill took in as their guests Sir Ashley
Sparks of the Cunard Line and Lady
Sparkle. Judge R. c. Lovett, president
of the Southern Pacific and Union
Pacific, who lost most of his personal
effects, proceeded to down town no.
tel and left during the afternoon IN
his private car for New York. John
C. White, formed lord mayor of Bel
fast, saved his personal belongings
and is at a down town hotel. Those
of the visitors who did not secure ac-
comodations are leaving the city prin-
cipally for foreign points. Senator
Frelinghuysen of New Jersey, on
whose house boat Mr.. Harding is now
guest, has for years been a winter
guest at the Bon Air, and there was
the belief, if not the definite under
standing that, when the Florida va
cation is over the New Jersey senator
and his distinguished guest were to
top off Mr.. Harding's recreation trip
with a weeks stay at the Bon All
with golf on the country club links
which resort the hotel practically
owns. While Nathan Straus does not
offer to finance a new hotel, he offers
to become a stockholder. He declares
that he is not the rich man he is sup,
posed by so many to be in that.he has
exhausted much. of his means IN the
charities in which he had been engag,
ed, especially during the last two
years.
