The Progressive Farmer. It is announced that the govern ment of Egypt will rigidly enforce the present law. passe<j December 8, 1920. which provides that no farmer shall plant more than one-third of his till able land in cotton. Violations of the law are punishable by fine or im prisonment or both, and pereage plant ed in excess of the permitted amount may be uprootted at the farmer’s ex pense. The chief benefit expected from the restriction is an impulse toward crop diversification, so that Egypt will be come less dependent on cotton. Un der irrigation methods, the fertility of the Nile valley is not what it an ciently was. Extension irrigation ca nals and water impounding schemes have largely stopped, the annual over flows with the resulting deposit of fertile silt.. Only a limited portion of the Nile valley is now subject to the floods. Egypt must improve her cultural methods, and crop diversifica tion is sought as a means to that end. Experiments undertaken by the Egyptian government’indicate that a three years’ rotation would increase the yield of cotton by 20 pounds of lint per acre, and at the same time release more land and water for other 1 crops. The one-third cotton restric tion law is intended to help in estnb- 1 fishing such a rotation. Under the law it will require three years for tlie farmer to put all his land into cotton. The government hopes that a three years' trial will demonstrate the value of a rotation system so thoroughly that it will be continued voluntarily thereafter. Besides acrefige restriction and gov ernment purchases of cotton, Egypt is niso making loans to growers at loss' than open market rates, prohibiting mixing of cotton varieties, and requir ing certification of seed as to purity and germination.

Hope is the rightful inspiration of the soul of youth. It stands on a sunny hill and points evey to the good luck and the good fortune that will be ours tomorrow. Without hope life would have little or no meaning. There would be no in centive to work and save. There would be no real progress. But hope is just one of the ele ments of success. It is, perhaps, the most essential of all. Unmistakably it is the one that brings humanity its greatest measure of joy. It vitalizes every fibre of our being. It keeps us up and going with brave hearts and happy faces. Unfortunate, however, is he who is swept away by „ its charm.

MARSHALL SHOT TO DEATH BY STEPSON Caldwell County Farmer Alleged to Have Been Beating His Wife at The Time. Lenoir, June 22.—T. A. Marshall, age 60, farmer of Little River town ship, was killed today about noon by a rifle shot alleged to have been f|red by Leonard Carver, his 16-year-old ’ stepson. Officers arrested Carver this • afternoon and placed him in jail here ■ on a charge of murder. The trouble arose between father and stepson at the noon meal hour, it was said. It appears that there were four of the Carver children. The stepfather corrected one of the Carver girls for some purpose, and this was resented by the child’s mother. Words followed and. accord ing to the story told by the children. Marshall was benting Mrs. Marshall, their mother. Leonard Calmer, the 16-year-old youngster, ran to get a rifle but an older brother took it away from and broke the rifle in two. After he had put it out of commission, he threw it down and was thinking of separating his mother and father. Again 1-eonnrd picked up the rifle and noticed- that when his brother broke the stock from the barrel it did not affect the lock or tiring mech anism and he tired one .22 caliber bullet which struck his stepfather un der the right arm. Upon being shot it is claimed that Marshall started to get a shotgun, but the older stepson succeeded in getting it first and fired both barrels before his stepfather could reach it. In his last efforts to reach the gun the man fell from the wounds inflicted by the rifle bullet. Porpoise Leaps Into Air for a Practi cal Reason. It is not in mere playfulness that (he porpoise leaps about in the sea, but for a very practical reason, points out Mack Sennett, the movie producer whose hobby is the study of deep-sea life, in an article in this week's Lib erty. Describing a recent trip he made to photograph the • underwater life off the const of Lower California, he writes: “One of the mysteries of the sea to me has been the, leaping of the por poises. To my grieat satisfaction w* got innumerable photographs of the:: in their quieter .moments under the water, swimming in a manner quite sedate and demure, always in pairs. “I learned that their purpose in leaping is to store up air in their lungs,” he explains. “Like the whale, the porpoise is a mammal. The whale comes up to blow and to take air into his lungs, but the porpoise does th ( e same thing on the fly. He literally compress the air. He takes a gulp and forces it down into his air cham bers, like stored-up air in a machine ; then takes another gulp and com presses that until he has a lungful.” Voice over phone: “Are you the lady that washes ?” Other end : “No !” Voice over phone: “You dirty thing.” VEGETABLES OF ALL KINDS Beans, Corn, Squash, Cucumbers, Tomatoes and Green Cabbage, Fresh Cantaloupes, Watermel ons and Fancy Peaches.

Jts walls are covered with the.linen scalps of fallen foes. They/ are the gayiy painted red, white, and blue numbers and symbols cut from fighting plane* that went down in defeat under the guns of Richthofen’s red Folflter. The chandelier banging from the ceiling over the center table is the rotary motor of a French plane the ace brought down near Verdun, remade with electric bulbs on each cylinder 1 head. | “The table is made from parts from broken propeller blades of all kinds,” the writer continues.
