3>EATH SUMMONS COMES TO THEODORE ROOSEVELT Torm?.* President Dies Suddenly a1 Home on Sagamore Hill?Funeral Held Wednesday. Oyster Bay, Jan. 6.?Col. Theodore Roosevelt. 26th president of the Unit ^d States, who died at his home or : Sagamore Hill early today, will Ik laid to rest without pomp fr ceremon> :ln Young's Memorial cemetery in this Tillage Wednesday afternoon, fte wil! rbe buried on a knoll overlooking Lone /Island Sound, a plot which he anc rMrs. Roosevelt selected soon after h( Tie ft the White House. In the words of the clergyman wh( will conduct the funeral services: ^America's most typical man, knowr in every corner of the earth, will gc to his grave as a quiet domestic, coun Jtry gentleman, beloved by his neigh "bors." After prayers at the Roosevelt hom< at which only members of the family will be present, the funeral servic* will be held at 12:45 o'clock in Chrisl ~Eniscopal church, the little old fram* -structure, where for years the colone and his family attended divine wor ship. ^ At the request of Mrs. Roosevelt, n< flowers will be sent. The altar will b? decorated only with laurel placed or it for the Christmas season. Also ii conformance with Mrs. Roosevelt's wishes, there will be no music and nc eulogy, but only the simple service ol the Episcopal church 'conducted bj the pastor, the Rev. George Talmage. The church, founded in 1705 and re built in 1878, will accommodate less than 500 persons, so that admittance will be by card only. These cards, it was announced, -would be issued froir the colonel's office in New York and will be given only to relatives and in timate friends. Catfle messages and telegrams o: condolence, not only from fellow coun trymen of high and low degree, bui trom distinguished citizens of man} nations were pouring into Oyster Baj tonight by t\0 hundred. All expres: . "heartfelt grief at the passing of '< great man and deepest sympathy fo: ' Mrs. Roosevelt, alwaysv devoted to he: vdistinguished husband and one of hi; most trusted advisers. The widow v. bearing up bravely under the shod of his sudden death-coming so sooi after, tfcat of their youngest son Iiieut. Quentin Roosevelt, who lost hii life in a battle with a German airmai last July. The death of Colonel Roosevelt ii 1>elieved by the physicians, who at tended him, to have been hastened b: grief over Quentin's death, couplet with anxiety over the serious wound: suffered by Capt. Archie Rooseveli -while fighting in France. He was proud of his soldier son: caiid their heroism, but he was a de -voted father and he grieved for the Diie who gave his life for his countrj as well as for the other who was \ i "wounded. He hid his suffering froir the world, however, in the hope thai lie might set an example for othci fathers and mothers who had giver their sons to the nation. To the last Colonel Roosevelt Jha<] been preaching "Americanism" anc few realized that his/health had beer shattered. It was believed that the Tugged constitution which had stooC Tiim in such good stead through sc. anany years of "strenuous" life would not fall him anl that he would rc5*ain liis usual health. His message ol late, however, had been deliverer! through the medium of editorials or vPublic statements instead of addresses. Even to his neighbors in Oyster Bay ii ictiiicd impossible that life had ended so suddenly for the Rough Rider hero of Spanish war days; the statesman who. as governor of New York and as president had wielded the "big stick" so fearlessly, the big game hunter of Ironical countries: the citi zen who preached preparedness long before his country entered the world .conflict. Apparently neither Colonel Roosevelt nor his wife had any foreboding that death would so soon still his ac* ~tive mind and body. It was at 4:15 o'clock this morning ' that the former president died in his sleep, painlessly. His death was due directly to a blood colt lodged in one lung, the result of inflammatory rheumatism. "Put out the light, please," were the former president's last words. They "were addressed to his personal attend ant. James Amos, a young negro who had been in his service since he left .the White House and who was sitting bl ithe foot of his bed. "Some time later Amos noticed that " the patient was breathing heavily and became alarmed. He left the room to rcall the nurse who had been summon' ed from Oyster Bay yesterday. When they returned Colonel Roosevelt had breathed his last. They called Mrs. [Roosevelt, the only member of the ..family who was at home. There had been a family gathering Christmas day, but no anxiety was felt over the colonel's condition the children who were able to spend the holiday with their parents had gone to different jaarts of the country. Colonel Roosevelt's final illness dat ed from last February. It was on t 5th of that month that, following i operation on one of his ears he w removed from Oyster Bay to t Roosevelt hospital in New York. J remained there until March 3, me* while undergoing two more opc-: tions. * Two months later he insisted ' keeping speaking engagements 1 ranged for him in many cities a J until the fail continued to give fr< the platform his views on internati< ; al affairs. 1 In November he was forced to ? turn to the hospital for treatment 1 1 rheumatism. Today, through an ; i nouncement by his physicians c< cerning the cause of his death, it ) came known that three weeks bef( he left the hospital to return to Sa; 1 more Hill on Christmas day, he h > suffered a pulmonary embolism, whi | nearly proved fatal. -| All flags at Oyster Bay are at h i mast tonight and fn windows of ne -, ly every store and residence are % 7 j tures of the former president drap *; with crepe, and surrounded w t!

The French plan as formulated by M. ile- Bourgeois has also been set torth, rs. and these are being compared by the grs American specialists who are prparto ing Liic: ground work for President ars Wilson. ist Lord Robert Cecil's plan outlines a brouu and comprehensive organization of the league of nations but thus far it is in the general terms and has not yet been reduced to definite terms of enactment as it would appear in a nd treaty' .j General Smuts' plan is along similar iines, but more general, and is )re mainly a thesis on the advantages of Ltu such a league of nations. General exSmuts is lormer minister of defense iue of the Union of South Africa Confedty. , eration and will come here with the ed British prime minister, Qavid Lloyd George. re. , Both of these plans are receiving ied careful study by the American authorities and it is declared both are ion nd regarded in a most favorable light . though it still remains to reduce the eir general principles to concrete terms. M. Bourgeois' plan embodying the French point of view, while general, >ay also embraces a number of specific delse tails, including compulsory arbitration, restriction of excessive armaific ment and international tribunal and a j series of sanctions or penalties for ent'nrr-inp nhsprvannp nf the league's de cisions. These sanctions include vaWO ^ rious diplomatic, judicial and economic measures, whereby the United ing States may enforce their decrees. :he ^ ? The American viewpoint, as it is now being formulated by the special. lists as the ground work for the presi, 1 dent, seeks to reach an accord on funde damentals on which all agree and present them in simple working form. ^ One of the chief of these fundamentals , is the formation of a league which CK" | will embrace all the nations of the ies . | world, but not one which will estab*1S ! lish any balance of power among a group of nations. 1116 Aiso care is being taken that the ng influence of the various nations in the [league would be in accordance with {their size and importance so that the l?i great powers and the small powers it would havt voices according to their - standing.

ADDS WEALTH TO NATION | " i ' i Great Saving in Cost and Maintenance j ! of Ships by Adopting Standard Sizes and Patterns?Long Hauls Cut Washington.?An Item which event-1 , tially will appear in tremendous fig- ! . ures on the credit side of the great j j war ledger to help offset some of the j , staggering figures of the debit side will j , be the added wealth to the nation of | the huge American merchant fleet j which the demands of the war have ' brought into existence and which, pes- j , simists to the contrary notwithstand- j ing, will not pass with the passing of ' , hostilities.. j The United States is turning out. at this time not only many more ships than ever before in the history of the ( nation, but many more than any other nation ever turned out in the same space of time. And, too, they are being built cheaper than before the war it was believed within the range of possibilities. And the great secret of this rapidity of construction and econ.omy of cost is summed up in one word ?standardization. In times of peace the building of ' merchant ships in the United States was not quite a lost art, but it certainly was far from being one of the gre t and important industries here. The United States government was keep- ' hands off and there was little en- 1 couragement for private capital to go into the enterprise. But when the war came all was changed. A great fleet of merchant ships became necessary for the successful prosecution of the | war, for the conveyance of troops and supplies to the countries overseas. The 1 United States government undertook the task. Time became an important factor and then it was discovered that lack of standardization was a serious handicap and must be overcome if rapid progress and economy in cost were * to be considered. Standardization was necessary and Standardization was put : into practice. Benefits of Standardization. The manufacture of clothing, hats and shoes is largely standardized as i to sizes and patterns. For this rea- * son a standardized suit of clothes or a i pair of shoes costs much less than so- J called made to order apparel. It is be- 1 cause standardization permits of the ^ use of labor-saving machinery, plus t ' quantity of production. Other familiar ( 1 cifnnrlow/lirrnfiA'ii 1 CXUIlipi^S U1 Mil'iraiui diunucuui/iuiivu are found in the dollar watch and the'i corresponding thing in automobiles. ? America's problem, then, is to make 1 a dollar ship, so to speak, or, if you | j prefer it, a seagoing "flivver," soir > 3 thing easily replaced in whole or in ^ part, but at the same time a thorough- 1 \y sound proposition from the stand-, 1 point of utility and economy. This < means standardization all along the < line. The more nearly the fabricated shapes for hulls and all ship machinery < and ship . equipment conform to < standard sizes or patterns, the greater 5 will oe tiie saving in miuai cost aim * maintenance of ships. , s It is the purpose of the United < States Shipping Board Emergency ( fleet corporation to effect this, some- f thing it has already accomplished with r respect to many things. The fact a that no such thing existed when 3 emergency shipbuilding began made S early progress slow. There were not ? only the problems of organization, but f the further complications always at- t tending,large construction enterprises 1< before materials and methods have 1 become fully standardized. e I nnn W anlc Eliminated. c Under standardization it is possible to let contracts on a geographical as fc well as cost basis, thus eliminating a long distance hauls. Under the old plan fe it was sometimes necessary to ship boats and rafts from Vancouver, b Wash., to Bristol, Pa. This metint p high transportation cost. In the ea*ly days blocks came in ^ 200 different sizes. Blocks ajjd fittings e have been so cut in size as to increase h plant facilities about 85 per cent. u Manufacturers are now concentrating p on production where formerly a lar^t e part of the business included the mak- b - ? ** ? J - ^ An/1ir<nr i Tl. il my yi new ui?s >vxlu ancuuma lj creas* in cost. p In the case of costly machinery such as boilers and engines, standard!- ?; nation Ikis eliminated many interm?di a site sizes. Nautical instruments c, plumbing fixtures, winches, windlasses g, ?in fact, all of the thousand and on* a things that go to make a fully equip e; ped ship?will be entirely standard r ized whenever it is possible to accom ^ plish it.

In several of these counties the weevil is numerous enough to damage the cotton crop to a consideiable extent in 1919 Consequently, socle changes in the method of producing cotton must be made to combat this pest Among these changes will be the planting of better seed of earliei fruiting varieties than are now generally used. A variety must be use<i that will begin to fruit early and sel a good crop of bolls by the first oi August, for after this time the weevils are usually abundant enough to destroy all squares that appear. It should be a good yielder with a high percentage of lint. A medium size plant is desirable. It should have but 3 or 4 vegetative tranches, but fruit ing branches should be numerous, kntii Mts nf hrsnplips r.nminfir out neai the ground. The cost of growing an acre of cotton from the best seed is no greatei than the cost of growing the sam? acre from inferior seed, but the difference in yield will often be from 300 to 500 pounds of seed cotton per acri in favor of the good seed. At the present price of cotton this would be at least $30.00 per acre, not counting th seed. The above fgures are conserva tive, for in varieiy tests consisting only of varieties considered standard for the State, results have been obtained showing a greater difference than above between the highest and lowest yielding varieties, though in many cases the yield of the lowest yielding variety in these tests would be greater than from "gin mixed" seed of inferior varieties commonly used by many growers. Consequently, those who use low erade seed in the weevil in fested area will suffer a double loss, while those who use the vest varieties adapted to their sections will lose only to tHe extent of damage due to the weevils. That many farmers are beginning to realize this fact is indicated by the many inquiries for better varieties and sources of seed. There is no such thing as a "boll weevil proof" cotton. Select a variety that has been tried and has proved itself adapted to the section in which ft is to be grown. Then purchase seed from a good reliable breeder as neai flome as pussiuic, IUI icauna buuvv that seed ordered from a distant state, where conditions are entirely different, io not produce as well as native grown seed. Early fruiting and late fruiting varieties should not be planted in the same community, as the weevils will have had tim-e to multiply in the fruit Conned on the early cotton and become numerous enough to destroy practically aH fruit as fast as formed an the late variety. j During the last two years' more than j twenty of the best'varieties have beenj tested in Edgefield, Aiken, BarnweH,; Hampton, Beaufort, Charleston, and! I ? V . _ I Dorchester Counties. From the r* I iults so far obtained and from obser-i ration as to fruiting and growth, there ire several that seem to be well adapt | id to these sections. Of the short staple varieties that ;an be commended for South Carolina conditions, Cleveland Big Boll, Cook, Dixie Triumph, and Diatie are the principal ones. The first two' are weH idapted for all sections of tire State,accept where the tend is wilt-infected. Cleveland is now more generally rrown in the State than any othef va> iet/. Several thousand bushels grown md bred in the State are sold every reai in the weevil district further Jouth and it is giving good results. >eed t-f this variety can be obtained rom reliable breeders in the State,, rho have for several years bees seacting and breeding for eariiness. ?his is considered one of the best vari ties yet developed for South Carolina onditions. Cook ranks among the highest yieldBg varieties in the State, but is not s generally grown, as antnrocoose or 10II rot seems to be worse in this ariety than any other. But several reeders have strains that are now ractically free from this disease. On wilt-infected land nothing bnt rilt-resistant varieties shonld be plant-1 d. Of these Dixie Triumph and Dixie! ave given best results. Dixie Tri-i mph is a new variety developed by a rominent breeder of the State. It is arly, with medium size plants, large oils, and is a good yielder. Seed of ais variety cannot be obtained ior lanting the coming season. Mexican Big Boil and Sawyer are tiort staple varieties that* are early nd have yielded well in the lowei oimties of the State. Sawyer is a ami-cluster cotton with large bolls on ledium to small plants. It sets fruit j arly, matures quickly, but does not j ink high in yield, and sheds fruit eavily in unfavorable weather. "Webber 49 and Webber 82 are the arliest long staple varieties. Both are rell adapted to the State, fruiting as axly as the short staple variettesand equently yielding as much seed cot m per acre. In securing seed of any of the abor< 1 arieties get seed that have been bred >r earliness from some reliabk reeder.
