A New Market for Corn.

New processes In milling have made
it possible to send corn products IN
the shape of grits and corn flour to all
parts OF the world and keep them in
definitely without their becoming
"hot." Mr.. ]. II. Bryan, a representa-
tive of the Near East Relief, Is in the
county this week, asking our farmers
TO give corn to be shipped to Europe
and Asia, not only to feed the 10000
children made orphans by the Turks,
and now being cared for in American
controlled orphanages, but also to
create new market for our surplus
corn, On It's face, It looks like a pay
ing proposition for the farmers, as well
as life saving campaign In behalf
of the orphans.
