Walhalla, 8. G.
Wants Direct Sales OF stores.

Washin gton, Nov. 20. -lDirect
sale to Southern cotton farmers Of
900 tons Of surplus nitrate Of soda
held by the War Department was
urged..yesterday by Senator Smith. Of
South Carolina, upon Secretary Wal
lace, Of the Department Of Agricul-
.ture, and Secretary Weeks, Of the
War Department. The soda would
be used in the planters figh~ ~against
the cotton boil weevil, and the two
cabinet officers said they would give
Senator Smiths proposal immediate
consideration.
Senator Smith proposed that the
War Department nitrate be sold at
cost in the same manner in which
Chilean nitrates were distributed by
the government few years ago.
Birch, beech and maple woods are
very similar in appearance and about
the same weight, and are easily mis-
| taken for one another.

TO my old comrades, yet spared
to live: We all well remember that

The hills our fathers trod;
Still let us for his golden corn
Send up our thanks to God.

SOME OLD YULETIDE BELIEFS
Season Supposed to Control the Dec
tiny Of Children Born at
Gladstone Time.

E$&&H A that 1t Is lucky to be born
&&yT on Christmas Day.
~ French peasants believe
that In addition to being
lucky Christmas Day babies have the
gift Of prophecy; while in Siesla
there Is belief that boy born ON
Christmas Day will become either a
lawyer or thief.
Among Vosges peasants, children
born on Christmas Eve are supposed
to be endowed with what Is vulgarly
termed "a good gift Of the gab," while
those born on Christmas Day are sup
posed to have less tongue and better
reasoning powers. A daughter born on
Christmas Day will grow up to be
wise,' witty, and vlrtuous.
A curious >bequest for the benefit of
Christmas Day babies was left by a
man who died in 1915. BY the terms
of his will each child born IN tho
testator's native town on December
25th receives five pounds rs n birth

made vows over it to break spear In

this ceremony which gave rise to the
