Linseed oil is the reason.

answer minimum national re-
q~uirements in 1915, and the
only source of that essential
oil is the tiny faxseed.
Chief use for linseed oil is in

for processing leather and textiles.
One Of the little-known, but i'm

manufacture of metal castings for
many types of military, industrial
and agricultural machinery. 1t acts
as a binder for the fine sands of
cores for the molds.
Nothing is wasted in the process

administration. The meal remaining
after the oil has been pressed out or
extracted from the seeds goes

for the oil are increasing at a time

Origin of Taps Unknown;
Ancient Greeks Used 1t

> The original words and music
of "Taps'' are of unknown origin
and are older than history. The
ancient Greeks used them and
they themselves did not know from
whence they came. The words
are:
Love. good night
Must thou go
When the day and the night
Need thee SO?
"AH Is well
Hasten all to your rest"
Popular belief is that taps was
first used in the U. S. army when
Gen. Daniel Butterield of the 83rd
Regular Pennsylvania Volunteers
taught the tune to his bugler,
Oliver Norton, by whistling it to
him. This occurred at Harrison's
Landing, Va, in July of 1862, after
seven days of fighting before Rich
mond.

the seed requirements for paintings
during the following year.
So vital is the need for linseed oil
that congress has authorized the
expenditure of $50, 600, 600 in spe-
cial payments to farmers to help
assure a sufficient supply. This is in
addition to the regular price sup
port program for faxseed, and will
be administered by the Agricultural
Adjustment agency. Farmers who
plant fax for seed will receive pay
ments at the rate of $500 an
acre, up to the limit of the individ-
ual farm goals worked out by the
farmer and his AAA committeeman.
The fax must be on suitable soil
and the crop properly handled. to
be eligible under the payment plan.
Price supports for f1axseed IN 1945,
as announced by the War Food ad-
ninistration. are designed to bring
the farm price to not less than 80
per cent of the parity price.
Crop Can Be Insured.
Further protection for growers is
available through the Federal Crop
Insurance corporation. Insurance on
this crop is being offered this year
for the first time, and will assure
production returns up to rs per cent
of average yields. Contracts are for
n year. and will be available
through county AAA offices or
other authorized agents. Closing date
for submitting applications will be
the beginning of seeding or March
81, whichever is earlier for all areas
except North Dakota and Montana
and parts of Minnesota. where the
FCIC closing date is April 10.
Average yield of flaxseed is
8 bushels per acre. That means it
takes some 81, 800, 900 of the seeds to
produce 152 pounds of linseed oil.
since they average 10. 600 to a
pound. Although all seeds contain
oil, some. like iaXsecd. are a rich
source of that valuable product. BY
weight, just over one-third of a fax.

Youth and Age

The 18th century proverb, IF
youth but knew, and age could
do" was founded on an exclam-
alton of Louis vi, to his counsellor,
Suger, "What a pitiable state is
this of ours, to never have knowl-
edge and strength together! In my
youth had I had knowledge, and in
my old age, had strength been
mine, I might have conquered
many kingdoms."-Guizot.

Obituary
EMMA JANE HARTSOE

Emma Jane Ashley Hartsoe,
daughter of Martha and Kary
Ashley, and wife of the late David
P. Hartsoe, was born September
18, 1873, and died September 80,
1945, at the age of Y years and
IL days.
She married David Hartsoe in
the year of our Lord 1892, and
unto this union were born the
following children: Joe, of Jeffer-
son, Mrs. J. C. Miller, of Oxford,
Pa, A. H., of Warrensville, Mrs.
Claude Watson, Mrs. Der tn a
Wiles and Elmer, all of Kannap-
oils, Mrs. Paul Bowers, of Jeffer-
son, Mrs. Jack Hardin, of Edge
wood, Md, and Dorse, of the U. S.
Army stationed in Germany. She
is survived by her children and
one brother, H. H. Ashley, Glade
Springs, Va, AZ grandchildren and
% great-grandchildren.
She made profession in Christ
at an early age and sometime
later joined the Ashley Methodist
church. Through the tolls and
trials of life she lived faithful
Christian life. She was courteous
and kind to all those who knew
her and she had the opportunity
to make many friends. Her de-
Ginning health prevented her from
attending church and visiting her
neighbors as she once did.
She realized that she could not
get we'll, but she desired to live
until she could return home, if it
were the Lords will, and if it
were not, she was ready to 60 to
meet her Savior.
She loved her children and la
bored tirelessly for their comfort
and welfare in life and set good
Christian example before them.
The children feel at a great loss
but are willing to submit to the
will of the Lord. For we feel that
our loss is her eternal gain.
Mothers gone, we say with
weeping,
Yet we smile through all our tears,
Knowing she is only sleeping,
And will live through endless
years.
Mothers gone, how dear and
tender,
Were her gentle kindly ways,
How shall earthly hearts
surrender,
A presence that so blest our DAYS,
Loving service was her pleasure,

It was the third day before
Rusty found time to embark on

been given to calling Doctor West

day, she saddled the now recover

It was late afternoon before the

a gallop. The dogs were surround
ing something. A Double R stray?
She rode up, called off the dogs,
and for a moment grasped the
pommel of her saddle while the
cliffs of the Nopocos danced dir
zily before her sickened eyes.
It simply couldn't be. Not on
her ranch. 1t could not be, yet it
was.
Before her, too weak to run or
even dip horn at the dogs, stood
an emaciated steer in the last
stages of anthrax.
Back, Babe" she ordered. And

Before her was the dropping
