Editor Dally Newt. Deer sir: I I enclose herewith a clipping from a northern paper, which I am aore will lntereat many of your reader*, especially the farmers. I thought | yon might like to have It for i??b Itcatlon. Very sincerely yours, \ N. L. SIMMONS William Spence Harvey Is reach ing down to graap 160.000.000 which careleas people have let lie upon the ground to rot. When be i told me about It the thing seemed like an Aladdin dream. Every year Jack Frost overtakes a considerable portion of the cotton crop and nips it before It Is ripe. This immature cotton has been counted as of no more use than the J green cherries that fall from a tree. The new game which Mr. Harvey plays simply takes green and appar ently worthless stuff In the bolls, puts It through a quick drying pro cess and in a couple of hours ripens the ootton quite as thoroughly as the sunftiine would have done over a period of many days. "Can you really do it?" I asked, j "Well,** was his answer, "people, are paying good money for this arti-1 flcially matured cotton. Do you need more proof?" Out on his Deleware county farm. Mr. Harvey planted four acres of cotton. It grew into a vigorous crop up to the time when It was near maturity and then along came Jack Frost. "I gathered that green cotton." said this modern Ell Whitney ? the inventor of the gin was a school teacher and Mr. Harvey is a lawyer j ? "brought it to Philadelphia, rip ened It in a few hours and sold it as a first-rate grade of cotton." He argues that there is nothing even novel, let alone nerw, about thla general process of assisting Mother Nature. Has the incubator not sup planted the hen to a great degree?! Does Thomas Bradley cure a ham by the slow process used by Indians | In "Jerking" their buffalo meat? I There are very few sun-dried peacches or apples on the market to fAay. Evaporated. which means ar f.lflcally dried fruit, has supplanted Uhem. I- Man no longer waits upon nature to season all hla wool .or wood, or tobacco, or leather, but does a better t jb than nature could do. does It with j heat and does 1t quickly. Converting a hlterto useless pro ' duct on Southern farms Into mil lions of real money aevjtns Well worth while, doesn't U? Here's hoping ?there is no flaw in the thing. ?

May 16. ? The block ade of Germany 1a now the para mount factor In the war. Thle is not to imply that the food reaourcea of the Central Poyers are exhausted; that any one has died of starvat!on, or that there Is any Im mediate danger of that fate. But the shortage already is great, sad if exhistlng conditions continue, fa mine is inevitable. For months Germany has been liv ing on short rations. These are get ting shorter every day. Everybody gets food; but millions are under fed. and it is steadily becoming worse. The Vorwaerts has state dthat the Berlin meat markets are empty. On the other hand, official action has re vealed hidden stocks of meat which were being held for ?till higher prices In one of these raids It was dis covered that the principal usurer was none other than the Kaiser's butcher, who happens to be a wo man, Prau Blesold. SLAUGHTER OF ROOSTERS INAUGURATES COMPULSORY j BIRTH CONTROL FOR TEXAS HENS TODAY Sherman. Tex.. May 15.? Birth control was forced upon Texas hens today when hundreds of farmer* armed wlty axes and hatchets chop ped the heads off all but the mo*t eugenic roosters.

The party plans to go down the Susquahanna river In light skiffs, exploring the banks and ad joining fields which were at one time the hunting grounds of the Mohicans. The expedition will work up the tributaries of the Susque hanna. including the Unadilla river which Is rich In Indian lore. Professor Morhead is certain that his expedition will uncover new In dian lore and that many facta val uable to the history of the Ameri can Indian will be learned.

"The Standard of Value and Quality" When you see this familiar phrase, remember that it is much more than a mere ad vertising Cxpedi'fit. Paige cars are actually and literally standard of the moderate price field ? and they have achieved this distinction through the basic value and quality of the product. There it no secret about qual ity manufacturing. Good materials, good workman ship and good facilities are essential to the production of any good car. It is only necessary to remember that there can be no compromise so far as any of these ele ments are concerned. A brief inspection of the Paige Fairfield "Six-46" will make this point clear. You, then, will also understand why th is car has been so universally adopted by people of good taste and refinement. F?lrfW-td " 7-pMHTfV $1295 f Ah.

The First National Bank WASHINGTON, N. C. A real Guarantee To be more than a mere "scrap of paper, "a guaran tee must be absolute ? arid backed by a concern able and willing to make it good. The General's guarantee is not only absolute; it is backed by a business operating the world's largest roofing mills.andmakingone-third of all the roll roof ing made in America. That's the guarantee behind Certain-teed Roofing The guarantee is for 5, 10 or 1 5 years, according to ply (1,2 or 3). There is no evasion about it ? no attempt to sub stitute a high-sounding something "just as good." There ia no substitute for a real guarantee. Y ou get an absolute guaran tee on CERTAIN-TEED because the General knows that no better roofing can be made. Its raw materials and method of manufacture arc both certified by the General's board ol graduate chemists, and he knows he's taking no chance in guaranteeing them to you. That's what "CERTAIN TEED" means ? certified and guaranteed. Experience has proven that the guarantee is conservative, and that CER TAIN-TEED will outlast the period of guarantee. The roofing felt, as it cones bone dry from the rollers, u given a thorough saturation of a special blend of soft asphalts, the formula of the General's board of expert chemists. Iti then given a harder coating of another blend of asphalts. This keeps the inner saturation soft, and prevents the dry ingr-out process so destructive to ordinary roofing. Roofins is impervious to the elements only so long as the asphaii saturation lasts. CERTAIN-TEED retains its soft satura tion, and is in good condition for years after the harder, drto kinds have become useless. CERTAIN-TEED is made in rolls: also in slate-covercd shingle* There is a type of CERTAIN-TEED for every kind of building, with flat or pitched roofs, from the largest sky-scraper to the small est residence or out-building. CERT AIN-TEED Is sold by responsible dealers all over the world M reasonable priccs. Investigate it before you decide on any typ< of roof.
