ROAtf BULLETINS FOR CALIFORNIA MOTORISTS. Washington, March 29. Beginning early in April the San Francisco of fice of the Forest Service will issue weekly reports ou the condition of ,the principal automobile roads in the National Forests of California. This . information will be .-. obtained .from the forest rangers and will be furnished to newspapers, press asso ciations, automobile clubs, hotels," and other interested organizations, by which it will be made available to motorists. The twenty National Forests in California comprise more' than 19, 500,000 acres of land and contain ap proximately 8,600 miles of road. There are in addition 9,500 miles of trail which make accessible the more re mote regions. Many of these roads penetrate large stretches of wild mountain country where thousands of people go each summer to escape the heat of the lower valleys. The present roads are to be supple mented by others, made possible by the Federal Aid Road Act, one section of which provides a million dollars a year for ien years for pie construc tion of roads in or near the National Forest in all the States. Of this fund n tntnl nf $281,751 has been appor tioned to California for the fiscal vears 191-iyi8. lO yrqvme uii aue- quate road system tor tne jaiiiorma National Forests the District Forester at San Francisco has tentatively esti mated that the construction or repair of 837 miles of road would be 're quired. Of this amount 663 miles would be in the National Forests and the remainder in the nearby locali ities. The roads are intended pri marily for the purpose' of developing the resources of the National Forests hut would also open up new areas to tourist travel. (UP FaOTE ; New: York, March 29.

Judge H. Gw Connor, of . the United States District Court, is today hearing the arguments of the attorneys in the case of the Fisheries Products Com pany against the Italian steamer Edillio, in which the libellants are en deavoring to collect $100,000 salvage from' the owners of the steamer. Judge Connor arrived in the city early this morning over the Seaboard from Laurinburg, where he held an unusual ly short session of court. At the adjourned Fall session of jjeaerai vjourt, nem nere a lew weeKs ago, many days were consumed m tak-j ing the evidence in the admiralty case This has been transcribed by the court stenographer and is in book form. There are between 800 and 900 letter size pages of the evidence. Judge Connor will hear the argu ments of the attorneys , here anof then peruse the large volume of evi dence and then render his decision in the case. Hon. George Rountree and Thomas W. Davis, Esq., are appearing for the Fisheries Products Company and Robert Ruark, Esq., and E. K. Bryan, Esq., are representing the own ers of the steamer Edillio. The Italian steamer Edillio, heavily laden with steel went aground on Cape Fear bar last summer and at various times she was pulled on by the fleet of fishing steamers chartered by the Fish eries Products Company. The owners of the Edillio contend that the fishing steamers did not succeed in pulling the I steamer off, but the Fisheries Products i Company claim that they aided mate- ( WANTS TO STRIKE i TKT iyxn ..re UN WAK IIMLO. Washington, D. C, March 29.: Steps to prevent the fomenting of strikes and the inciting of laboring men to riot, in case of war, are to be outlin ed by the executive council of the Na tional Civic Federation at a meeting opened here today in conjunction with the Advisory Committee of the Na tional Council for Defense. In announcing its plans the Federa tion asserts that the action is taken because of the great need of some such movement in view of the publicly an nounced intention of - certain radical organizations to promote strikes and riots in every - manufacturing locality in which they can gain a hearing. Action is also planned because of the experience in England, where it was found that after the South Wales min ers' strike involving 2,000,000 work men, the only means of settling and preventing strikes was through such voluntary efforts, the Munitions Com pulsory Act :havlng prbved entirely futile. The first step will be the offering by mediation department of the Fed eration of a plan whereby reconcilia tion committees, composed jointly of employers, labor' leaders and repre sentatives of the public; are to be formed, in every industrial center.

Local Assddiatiori Made a Rec ord Run In The Member ship Contest.. . i i Never in the history of the Young Men's Christian Association has a membership contest been . waged as heartily and as enthusiastically as is the present one being conducted. Nev er before in the career of the local As sociation,, has it ever been able to perch alone at the top, as it did yes terday and up to I. o'clock today. Whether another story will be told by 6 o'clock this afternoon is the ques tion, out the contest teams have gone iirl f'nr vintrv an ifon'ri tn land wn mington.'at the top or near that point wnen the climax comes. up to 1 o'clock this afternoon the Young Men's Christian Association had scored al most oine thousand points and the teams were still going, ahead.. Short ly after, one this afternoon the - teams met at dinner, to listen to some fine talks and make reports, dinner being served by the young ladies of St. An drew's Presbyterian church, who were given a hearty vote of thanks by the assemblage. The luncheon hour today was featur ed by a splendid and inspiring talk by George B. Elliott, Esq., general counsel for the Atlantic Coast Line. Mr. El liott is decidedly popular among the young men and he was given a big reception. He left a fine message, as an inspiration for the young man to be of real service and to enthuse him for the contest, which means so much to the community, he said, by building up the Association. Mr. Otis B. Hinnant told of his re cent trip to Kinston, where tlie great worth of the Y. M. C. A. has dawned and where such an Association is go- j ing to be organized. He spoke of the, progressiveness of Kinston as an ex ample for progressivness in the present membership contest. Captain DuVall, one of the special aides to the membership committee in the contest and a veteran at the game, explained "what it takes" to get mem bers. His talk was a most interesting one. The pennant for the day was won by the Navy of the Boys' Division, lead by Mr. Davis Howes, Jr., and which ' corps is allied with the city teams in i the contest. Mr. Howes workers scor-, ed 170 points and captured the pen nant from Captain Myers' team, which yesterday won it. The grand total of points up to 1 o'clock this afternoon was 921 points. Today's score, with the captains, fol lows: City Howesi Army, 170 ; Sullivan, li2 1-2; Pickard, 113; Myers, 86 1-2. Total, 532. Coast Line Bryan's Army, 33; Wil lis, 25; Wilder, 22. Total, 80. Again at 1:15 o'clock tomorrow after noon the workers will meet for lunch and to. make reports. ENTERS A NEW FIELD Resigns. From Coast Line to Enter Business. Mr. Gerken will become effective on the first of the month and he will act- pany an unusually able man.

Seven young ladies have registered frT thu plompntarv rnnrsp in hveriene and home-care for the sick, which course is to be conducted under the - i? L' nSLl benefit of the local Red Cross- Chapter The registration of ten young women is required before the class can be organized, and those interested are very anxious to get the remaining three as quickly as possible in order that class work can be started. A class is limited to twenty, ten being ab solutely necessary. A second class may be formed' also, it was announced this morning. The membership fee is a half dollar. Mr. C. H. Noblin, Forest, Miss., states that he is using Buckeye Hulls exclusively. He experimented in the beginning by usicj pld style hulls and Buckeye Hulls side by aide, and found by actual comparison that his com fed on Buckeve Hulls (rave more mill- than the cows fed bri old istyle hulls. ..- r i nusi ' MAM p ym-, jSOTTONSEED (I faorroNsetD UNTlESS should give these results. They are all roughage. There is no worthless lint to clog the digestive tract and make the assimilation of food difficult. They mix uniformly and thoroughly with other feed- They are free of trash and are unusually clean. Test Buck eye Hulls as Mr.' Nobliri did and you will have the same results. And remember,' they cost you veky much less per ton than bid style hulls. To secure the, best resuUft nd to develop the ensilage odor, wet the hulls thoroughly twelve hours 6ef ore feeding. It i easy to" do this by wetting them down night and morning for the next feeding. If at any time this cannot be -done, et down at least thirty minutes. If you prefer to feed, the hulls dry, use only half, as much by bulk as of old style hulls. Book of Mixed Feeds Free Gives the right formula for every combination of feeds used in the South.

What was probably the most spir ited volleyball season in the history of the Y. M. C. A. was brought to a close last night, andthe climax was furious and exciting, as upon the out come depended whether it would be necessary to present a post-series to determine the championship. How ever, by taking one. out of the series played with DuVall's team, the win ners of the first half of the season, the Strickland team, also clinched the second half,! and was awarded the championship. . Strickland's team at the beginning of last night's play was three games ahead of its opponent, and it took a triple victory to make a tie, but after DuVall's bunch started strong, cap turing the first game, the Strickland- ers came back with force and obtain ed the second game, and made the championship secure. Both of these games were hotly contested and de cidedly exciting. StrickVmd's 1916-17 volleyball champs were Mitchell, Sny der, Wilder, Shepard, Cowan and Strickland. i in the other series played last night Fisher's team whipped Thees' team, thus consigning the latter to cellar position.

IfuU$ ; There arc several reasons why LIKE ELECTRIC BUTTON ON TOES Tells Why a Corn is So Painful and Says Cutting' Makes Them Grow. i Press an electric button and you form a contact with a live wire which rings the bell. When your shoes press against your corn it pushes its sharp roots down upon a sensitive nerve and you get a shock of pain. Instead of trimming your corn3, which merely makes them grow, just step into any drug store and ask wor a quarter of an ounce of freezone. This will cost very little but is sufficient to remove every hard or soft corn or cal lus from one's feet. A few drops ap plied directly upon a tender, aching corn stops the soreness instantly, and soon the corn shrivels up so it lifts right out, root and all, without pain. This drug is harmlessand never in flames or even irritates the surround ing tissue or skin. Advt. THE MAN BEHIND THE PLOW I is having to bear his share of the blame for the high cost of living. . As proof, it is pointed out that "although I populaation increased twenty-one per C the last decade, acreage de voted to the ' cereals Increased less than two per cent.; but prices advanc ed seventy per cent." How much, land have you on your farm on which you could have raised wheat or corn or rye or oats last sum mer and didn't? Maybe only an acre or so, which you let lie idle but which could haye raised 60 bushels pf cor, or 25 bushels of rye. It is the acre age over the amount necessary to pay y expenses of the farm that is the profit of the farm. If you let one acre go unfilled last year that you might have farmed, you can S?ut down in your "lost" items at least $25 that you might have right now in this Bank in your checking account. We don't mean that you got $25 from every acre you did farm .maybe you got $100 and maybe you only got $10 that all depends on how you handled the soil and the crops, and what the weather did for you. " -What a farmer makes off his farm i l is pretty nearly shown in his check bopk and deposit book together,, for not many practical farmers stick tp the old and dangerous way of paying wages or expenses with cash, or ; keeping money in the house.
