Chicago which means $2.20 in North
Carolina. It cannot be less, this much
is guaranteed; it may be more. It
would therefore seem clear -that we
can produce in North Carolina a
much larger crop of wheat than we
have been producing at a profit. Ev.
ery consideration of humanity would
urge us to do all we can (whether at

Patriotism calls for "Special Ef

-Let us double our wheat acreage

First: It will pay us in doUarsi.and

It will help save millions
of starving people.
Third: it is our line of service to
our country; a concrete and worth

North Carolina who preaches week

his people to this duty?

He uses Buckeye Hulls altogether says they are
cheaper and better.
Ts secure the best results and to develop the ensilage odor, wet the hvJU
thoroughly twelve hour before feeding. It is essy to do this by
wetting them down night and morning for the next feeding. If at any time
this cannot be done, wet down at least thirty minutes. If you prefer to
feed the hulls dry, use only half as much by bulk as of old style bulls.

"Why educate sick children?" asks
the State Board of Health. "Or why

dollars in time and money, find that
their frail bodies and tundeveloDed
minds are not capable of bearing the
strain. Then why educate their af

appears clear. As heating too rap
idly is detrimental to the texture of
the cheese, from 30 to 40 minutes
should be required. When the whey
has become well separated from the
curd it is, drawn off. The curd is
placed in cheese cloths and hung on
racks to drain until it is left fairly
moist but not sloppy. Then it is
salted to taste. For the best quality
of cheese thick cream is added at
the rate of 1 ounce to 1 Dound of

From 100 pounds of skim-milk one
should get at least 15 pounds of cot

the time and labor involved.

the "first to fight". How the term
came into use is explained in this
wise: When the "first tn fiot

on the wharf shouted "Vivent les
amis!" pronounced "Vppv
mee! What this means is "long live
the (our) friends," but "les
amis may sound a good deal like
les Sammies," and the newspaper
men so interpreted it. Immediately
the folks "back home" began calling
our troops 'Sammies," but the French

Judge Bond of the Superior Court

couple of weeks ago at Lumberton
was so impressed with the forceful
eloquence of the iude-e tbat. bo bill

Bond repeated the performance at
Lumberton's patriotic meeting, Mon

to this custom by North Carolina
judges of making patriotic speeches
in the guise of charges to the grand
jury, The StateSville Landmark
thinks that addresses of this sort, so
long as they are within reasonable
bounds, "are proper under the ab
normal conditions now prevailing."
