Dr. Andrews, writing to the North Carolina Fooa Conservation Commission, states that he ia one of tho»e who have been preaching and practicing diversified rurming and In creased food production for these many years. Dr. Andrews has nine •tnidy children and rather hints that food production has been a necessity. Seei t :ary John Paul Lucas of the Fond Commission wa» « mch pleased wttk Dr. Andrews' letter, except for •me clause that rather riled him. "Your theory has been my practice f<fr •II these years," wrote the doctor. "1 have no theories," declared Lucas. "I am practicing what 1 preach. I vork eight horses on my farm and, as I was already practicing diversified farming, I had only 80 acres of cotton last year. I have put about 25 extra acres of land into cultivation and have cat tho cotton acreage 20 per cent fn>m the small acreage of last year. In addl'-loii to a considerable acreage c-f wlunt, oats, rye, on,» corn, I nm planting 40 acres of soy beans far food and seed, enough sorghum to ■r.aUe lf/00 gallons of syrup, several aires each of .sweet and Irish potatoes and fora?e on every acre of stuhble lard that doe., not go into soy beans vr corn." "I resent being called a theorist." / Revolution Must Happen In Germany, Says Ledebour. Berlin, via London, May 15.—Ti.e no. ialist leader, George Ledebour, de clared in the reichttag today that it w..s impossible for Germany to win a war of subjugation, and expressed the conviction that a revolution must hap pen in Germany as it had happened n Ki ssia. "We shall propose r eonstitutior.al committee," he said, "to taKe prepara t iry steps in the direction of introduc ing a republic in Germany." Life Was a Misery Mrs. F. M. Jones, of Palmer, Okla., writes: "From the time I en tered into womanhood ... I looked with dread from one month to the next 1 suffered with my back and bearing-down pain, until life to me was a misery. I would think 1 could not endure the pain any longer, and I gradually got worse. . . Nothing seemed to help me until, one day, . « . 1 decided to TAKE The Woman's Tonic •' I took iour bottles," \ Mrs. Jones goes on to say, "and was not only greatly relieved, but can truthfully say that 1 have not a pain. . . " It has now been two years since I took Cardui, •and 1 am still in good health. . . I would ad vise any woman or girl to use Cardui who is a sufferer from any lemale trouble."

Yesterday the instruction* from the war department ran* to Greensboro under which registration of men of the |conscription aire* will he conducted. The Guilford County board of regia tration for thia purpoao ia composed of Clerk of the Court Mason W. Gant, Sheriff D. B. Stafford and County Phyairian, Dr. W. M. Jonea. Thia ><oard held it* initial meeting ye.«t*r •lay an! pi e pa red to carry out their duties w tth despatch. The first action to be taken ia the appointment of registrar* and these will be an nounced Tuesday morning, following another meeting of the board of re gistration. Under the registration plan*, the men of the county will have to report at the regular election polling places and answer the questions of the gov ernment on some day yet to be for mally announced, but which will pro bii ily bt June 5. In the meantime, the officers will thoroughly familiarize themsehes of what is expected of them and cf the citizens. To the registration, board has come from the war department samples of the cards upon \thich the questions are asked and must be answered and along with them full explanation of what is in tended to be given in response to the various questions. The government not only asks the men to enumerate the persons, or relatives, rather, dependent upon them for support, but calls upon all to sig nify whether they claim exemption under the law and if so why. The government does not contemplate tak ing in the first draft men who are the sole support of mother, sister, child u' der 12 or wife, but it wants the men who are qualified by that support for exemption to signify the fact definitely. • The Kovemment in its explanation advisee that the young man should not let "military ardor interfere with the wish of the nation to reduce wars misery to a minimum. On the other hand, unless the person you have in mind is solely dependent on you, do not hide behind peticoats or children. Here are the questions which will l« aslfed and the explanation of each: "Questions will be r.-Ked for you to answer in the order in which they ap pear on this paper. These questions are set out below with detailed in formation to help you answer them. Do not write on or mark, or other wise mutilate these instructions. Do not remove them. They should be carefully re :d so that you will have your answers ready when you go be fore the registrar. "All answers will be written on the registration card in ink by the regis trar, who should be careful to spell all names correctly and to write legibly. "1. Name in full. Age in years,— "This means all your names spelled out in full. "State your age today in years only. Disregard additional months or days. Be prepared to say 19, or 25, not 19 years, 3 months, or the like. "2. Home address. "This means the place where you have your permanent home, not the place where you wort. He prepared to give the address in this way: 232 Main street, Chicago, Cook County, Illinois; that is, give number and name of street first, then town, then county and state. "3. Date of birth. "Write your birth (month, day and year) on a piece of paper before going to the registrar, and give the paper to him the first thing. Example: Aug ust !>, 1894. "If you do not remember the year, start to answer as you would if some one asked you your birthday, as Au gust B. Then say on my birthday this year I will be or was years old. The registrar will then fill in the year of birth. Many people do not carry in mind the year they were born. Thl*- majr~t>» obtained by the registrar by subtracting the age in years on thit yfear's birthday from 1917. , "4. Are you (1) a natural-born i .:>«n; (2) a naturalized titum; (3) a- s.iui; (4) or have you declared your intention to become a citizen (*pe ty which)? , -1) If you woie twrn in the United States, including Alaska, and Hawaii, you are a natuial-b< rn citUen, no mat ter what may have been the citizen ship 4>r nationality of your parents. If you were born in t'urtm Rico, you are a citizen of the United State?, Stated, or regular army (navy) of United States.' "12. Do you claim exemption from dn»f"? Specify grounas. "Lierau.se you claim exemption from draft, it by no means follows that you are exempt. For the information of ^ the war department you should make a claim now if you intend to prose- J cute it. Some persons will be exempt- , ed on account of their occupations or i offices, some on account of the fact that they have relatives dependent upon them for support. Your answer ] touching these thirjf» will be impor tant in supporting the claim you now intend to make in your answer to the ' present questions. sure, therefore that the grounds you now state are in conformity with your answers to ques tions seven and eight. In stating grounds you claim as exempting you. use one of the following terms: If | you claim to b« an executive, legists- j tive, or judicial officer of the state or nation, name your office and say j whether it is an office of the state or' nation. If you claim to he a member' of a religious sect whose creed for bids its members to p«. tu-lpate in war in any form, simply name the sect. If you arc employed In the transmis sion of the United States mails or as ! an artificer or workman in an armory, J arsenal, or navy yard of the United States, or if you are a marriner em ployed in the sea service of any citizen or merchant within the United States, so state. If you are a felon or otherwise morally deficient and desire to claim exemption on that ground,! state your ground briefly. If you claim physical disability, s>t?te that briefly.
