Mixed or impure stock, under mod
ern methods Of harvesting and han
ding the pea crop for canning may
result in the introduction of undesir-
able seed which may ruin the entire
output Of canning factory, says the
United States Department of Agricul-
ture. The Gamer should buy direct
from the edgrowing scotsman rath-
er than from jobber. Particularly
in the case of smooth Alaska peas,
which furnish 55 per cent Of the
canned peas on the market, there Is
risk taken If canner buys seed the
history of which cannot be traced.
The Gamer Is in much safer position
If he buys only from seed growers
who control their own stocks.
Must Be Productive.
To be a good canning pea, variety
must, first Of ALL be productive; all
plants must ripen uniformly; all pods
on individual plants must be In usable
condition at one tlme-that Is, none
must be too ripe or too immature; the
peas must remain green after process
ing. The Introduction Of the viner,
which eliminates hand-picking Of the
pods. has had decided influence on
the varieties of peas used for can
ming.
The return on planting of peas
FOR seed is far less than that on either
corn or tomatoes, two other impor-
tant canning crops, and the utmost
care is necessary throughout the
growth of the seed crop to discover

MILLICENT

THE affected young miss who chang
L es her name from Mildred to Milli-
cent in the fond belief that the two
are interchangeable, is really rechris-
tening herself. The two names are ut
terly dissimilar.
Mllicent, which Is translated to
mean work, strength, comes from that
remarkable word "amal," meaning
work, which appears in some similar
form in all languages. We have our
word "moir' from it. Many feminine
names have been evolved from ANAL
the first probably being Amalaswinth,
the unfortunate queen Of LOmbardy
whom the Romans could not protect
from the treachery of her favOrltes.
but in Burgundy she became Nell
sendra, Melicerte, and Melusine.
Spanish balladlore reveals Nell
sendra as the wife Of Don GayferOs,
who was taken captive by the Moors
and we hear of her through Don Quix-
ote. Melusine was the nymph, wife
Of Lord de Leezignan, who, according
to old legend, retired from public view
every Saturday and turned into a
serpent.
Princess Melisende carried the
crown of Jerusalem to the House Of
AniOy and through the Provencal con-
ncction Of the English court, Lady
Melisent Stafford, who lived during
the reign Of Henry ii, established the
name in England. 1t soon came to be
spelt Melicent and finally Millicent.

RULE WIFE CAN'T BE LlBElED
Against Husband Because Of
Peculiar Precedent in Law.

LOndon.-At the Central Criminal
court before the recorder. William
Anthony Barter thirty-fOur, draughts-
man, was indicted for publishing a de-
famatOry libel concerning Elsie Alice
Barter, his wife.
Mr.. Frederick Levy, for the defend
ant, moved to quash the indictment.
He quoted the decision in which it was
held that wife could not take pro
ceedngs against her husband for de-
famatOry libel.
The recorder referred to passage
i'm the decision quoted in which II
was stated that libel might raise
angry passions and desire for re-
venge. and lead to breach Of the peace.
The learned judge thought, said the
recorder that that should be settled
I'm the domestic forum.
Mr.. Huntly Jenkins. for the prose
cution, said he had intended To put the
point before the recorder. There was
no doubt that the defendant wrote a
number of scurrilous postcards.
The recorder said: "If man hits
his wife she has remedy. but if he
inflicts the much more severe injury
Of writing libelous postcards she has
no remedy"
Mr.. Levy read letter which the
defendant had written To his wife eX-
pressing his sincere apologies for
writing the postcards. He unreserv-
edly withdrew al the statements and
expressed regret for the annoyance
which had been caused to her. He
also spoke of the most bitter re-
morse which he felt. Mr.. Levy add
ed that the defendant desired him to
emphasize the expressions of regret.
The recorder said it was admitted
by the prosecution that the indict-
mcnt would not lie. The law protect
ed wife from physical injuries which
her husband inflicted on her. but ap-
parently did not protect her from
cowardly libels. He quashed the in
dIctment, and the defendant was dis
charged.

IT RAINED

From the Philadelphia Public Ledger.
 It rained Saturday after long autumnsl drouth. There was no downpouring gully washer and ground-soaker. Rather was it an apologetic, slow sort of drizzle-drawze, half mist, haf-rain, that washed autumn's face and beauty on the hills.
 The rain revealed that this is no blazing red-and-gold autumn. There has been no frost to deepen the reds into scarlets and the yet lows into raw gold. This fall Nature is using pastels, dull tints and softened shades. On Saturday the naples stood out in soft wet brown masses The golds old-gods and the reds were dulled and blended into the sun Drowned hill slopes.
 Only the ivy was flying the Soviet colors in red fleeks on weathered gray walls. Sumac and sassafras stood in dulled maroons and the dogwoods in dark reds that were lustrous Tn the slow drip of the rain. Many tree was wearing it's summer colors of July green with it's fellows in red, brown and sober yellow.
 Deep summer was jostling mid-autumn. The moon of green corn was cheek to cheek with the moon of falling leaves. The roadside wal nuts were leaf-naked against background of oaks hardly touched by the magic of October. That magic had spread mist film in the val leys and hung purple haze across the brow of the hills
 The leaves fell in soft millions. Black birds moved in ragged regiments against sky al- most as dark as their own moving wings. The rains had started the pageant of autumn nov ing at swifter pace. It will move faster now, and he Is wise who gets himself to the hills and the high roads, to the lanes and the fiercs and sees something of this yearly miracle pass by.

AUBURN TEAM WILL MEET
 WEST POINT TODAY

Today an Alabama school reflects honor upon its state by being chosen opponent for the boys at West Point, The football team of home in the game 1t plays with the cadets today, but the thoughts and good wishes of all Alabamians are with them. Alabama knows they will give good account of themselves and will uphold the traditions of their school, not only for athletic ability but for clean sportsmanship.
 The Age-Herald's football expert who is with the team advises Alabama admirers not to bet on Auburn to win, but if anybody Is inclined to give the West Point men more than IA points 1t Is at least worthy of consideration. The Auburn boys will play to make the best possible showing, but after all the score in this first game so far from home Is not the most important thing. It Is more important that they are considered worthy to meet foe in game on which tho eyes of the entire nation will be centered. It will draw renewed atten- tion to an Alabama school already famed throughout the south and whose alumni are rapidly spreading it's fame as an educational institution to every part of the nation where thorough technical equipment in engineers IS appreciated and admired.
 Aside from the sport feature of the game at West Point today the trip Itself has been a notable one to the boys, for they stopped in Washington and New York, and thus be- come enved of thousands of other students in the south. The Journey is one of the rewards of making the team" which will inspire others to try harder next time. The event should than one.

time limit on that treaty expires next month, and observers contend that there is possi- bility of a new government coming in before the present Parliament has had an opportunity to pass upon this measure.
 While the premier has never during his pub lie life been so bitterly attacked by the press as in recent weeks during the progress of the negotiations with Turkey, it is now contended that developments have placed Lloyd George in position of renewed strength because of the without throwing the nation into armed con- flict.
 It Is worth noting that the British press now calls attention to the fact that Great Brit ain is established in another Gibraltar. This has reference to British occupation of Chanak on the Dardanelles, which gives absolute com- mand of the straits. The inference is that It may be a long time before Great Britain aban- dons this valuable strategic position, and the fact that 1t is in British hands cannot but be looked upon as a feather in Lloyd George s cap. His policy not only brought England 70 the brink of conflict with Turkey, but also brought very strained situation with regard to France in Italy. But he won his point. The armistice has been signed and France and Italy were found on England's side.
 All this helps the premier and gives renewed prestige to the only war leader in the world who has been able to retain his public position.

WHY BIRMINGHAM MILLS
 ARE THE RuSIEST

The Fairfield plant of the American Steel and Wire company Is operating at full capacity and moving its output. Its order books are understood to be so filled that 1t has not been in the market recently for new business.
 As in the case of other auxiliaries of the Steel Corporation in the Birmingham district, this plant produces for the export and Pacific coast trade and has both water and rail con nections with the coast. The business with the west coast Is continuously large. South America, the Windward Islands, Cuba and Porto Rico and other countries arc taking an increasing tonnage of steel products ss they gradually recover from the wars aftermath of commercial and financial depression.
 Tho Warrior barge line is admirably suited Co the transportation of wire mill products, Mobile has several lines to the west coast and whenever there is especially large cargo of steel products for export ships of the Isthmian Steamship company, another auxiliary of the Steel Corporation, put in at Mobile.
 That is the secret of Birmingham's ability to operate steel mills at capacity when they slow down in other steel-making centers. The export and Pacific coast trade is ours without serious contest. The Steel Corporation wisely sensed Alabama's export advantages and experience time and time again has proven the correctness of it's vision.
