object to their i- creased pros
perity, but.it completely disor
ganized farm labor. This is the
lowest paid type of labor, and
naturally would first respond
to higher wages paid in other
lines. The scarcity of labor ex/
tended beyond the farms into
all branches ; of labor whether
skilled or unskilled. Anybody 7

War Time Conditions.
A ' > *
The English have an-expres-
frion ‘ muddlingj through”
which they use of themselves to
show that they will succeed
after a while, hut they are
careless" of the needless mis
takes tm*y make in doing so.
We h ave 'inherited much of
their temp'* rament, hut we are
not as careless of mistakes as
thev charge themselves with.
We are rapidly putting our*
stivfs on a War basis. :
Pur several years we have at
this season gone through a
large’portion of the states of
Ceorgia, Tennessee, .North, and
South Carolina, and while the
country lying on the railroad
4s hut a small part, yj r t it is an
iudex of the whole. The gov
ernment has long since issued
a call for footj! production, in
the citi< s it was an liitewsliirg
feature to see the children’s
war gardens on lots that • for.-
merly were ha ren. These
gardens were produced under
the supervision of trained'agri
culturists, and with the labor of
children after school hours.
One is also particularly im
pressed 'with the very small
acreage of'tillable idle -laud.
Every available field is jdaHted.
in.some eases,the crops aj*e ex
ceedingly small as yet, but
they are food crops. In two
points tlie low country of our
own state stands'out .in' con
trast. The lands along the rail
road show a higher acreage of
idletillahle land. While all of the
slatts mentioned are - cptton
states yet others are producing
more foddstuiis in proportiifn
to the cotton acreage than’ we
apparently, are. ; ^
Another incident of war time
*
conditions is the absence of
jmen within the draft ages. It
natteis not where one’may go
iieie is an almost complete
absence of men between *21 and
1. In the stores their places
are taken either by women or
older men. In hotels and its-
4iurunts one D struck by tlie
number of mere hoys who are
doing a waiters work. Formerly
a large number of this, class
paling around
stations. Here also, it
is true that more dFthis class

are so many of them lmti
when ^ fLip"wku Ini ye gong- to
were Jound
railway
it was cotton oi nothing with
them, because they couldn’t
make corn unless they had
good rains which were unusual.
We have never seen the year
in which we made a complete
'failure of.foods tuffs on account
of rfrought as often pnevails in
the Southwest. - .
A man can really live better
at home than awayTfom it now.
Food conservation is the mes*
sage of the hour. The sugar
dish has practically disappeared
from hotel and restaurant tables,
and in its place each guest
receives a small envolope hold
ing about a teaspooriflil of
sugar. Fifty-fifty bread appeals
neither j,q the eye nor taste of
the consumer. The war is
teaching thp" people to love
com bread; I fit succeeds 'in
this it will put the corngrow-
iug sections of the south on a
new level. I passed a troop
train from the far west just as
the men were being served for
dinner, a part of wliich was a
deliciously browned muffin.
They seemed to enjoy it with
great relish. One rs noticeably
struck bv the fact ihat both in
the. number of dishes 'served
and the amount.there has been
a serious falling off. There.was
a lime when a selection of a
few articles from the hill of
faie would furnish an ample
meal. Now it is somewhat in
teresting to see on A one side
of an article its price and on
the other * its calories or
value,
The supremo business of the
country is winning the war,
everybody is cheeifully helping'
this toward success. As soon
ns the government decides ihat
a certain step must be taken
tin ■a everybody,-tug auri. little,
voting and old gets behind it to
roll it on. Everything costs
more than it used to. It is no
longer what one wants, hut
what one can get. We think
that \\y ar^Tllaying a harder
time than others. That how-
evir Is becalise we‘"do not stop
io think about others or are so
selfish that we don’t care for auy-
lioily hut ourseiyes. Just a>

>ou-P»idd “Mother I wynihl g< t

After the train had gone his
mother said, “T wouldn’t'take
anything for his being in tfte
army”. There are others beside
ourselves. * ' ' ■ '

In the cablegram it is stated
that Lieut. Cogswell is among
the men mentioned in the “di

the Croix de Guerre decoration
and others to receive the distin
guished service medal or the
medal of honor. ”
The jjispatch says, of Lieut.
Cogswell; “First Lieut. Julius
