My britches had shrunk up so much that I had to unbutton them and the legs ban' reached to my knees. My coat got! so tight on me I had to tear it off.

After a night spent without shelter on the raio-eoaiked grass of a city park, the "conservative" group showed no sign of relenting from their unanimous' vote last night to romata aloof from the facilities provided at Fort Hunt, Virginia. 'Strong indications came t*xlay from official quarters that the veterans choosing to remain on tlve capital's streets would receive less consideration from the police than has been shown them thus far. Viole?nce to the person of Emmanuel Levin, self-conceded communist and a leader of the Fort Hunt pontingemt was nanrowly averteu last night. Member's of the "right wing" group started to rush him when he tried to - make a speech urging that they join, the -hundreds of ex-soldiers at the government-provided camp. Police formed a flying wedge and managed to steer him down a side street before the indignant "conservative*" reached him. ... .

Green Vetch Grazing Used For Work Stock . - I Clemaon College, May 13.?Other fitrmem who may bo unfortunate enough to make a failure in a corn! crop may take courage from the ex-1 perieitce of W. E. Henderson, of Ver-1 dory, who finding him.seIf without! grain for work stock this spring has , used a vetch field for gnating along: with Johnson graas hay to keep his I mules going. "When I started to work Matvh 1," saya Mr. Henderson, "1 djd not have any grain at all. 1 bought 10 sacks , of alfalfa feed for six mules which, of course, tastes! only about a week. Cotton at that time was too cheap to buy expensive feed to raise it. ;l l?a<l six acres of vetch of fair growth, and about March 12 I had those mules put on this vetch each night, with only Johnson grass hay for the noon ?feed, and during the time since then these mules have improved, are in as good condition as over at the time of the year, and are doitvg as much' work, so far an I can see, as they | have (been doing on a grain feed. i "I shall not 'be worried any more by a corn crop failure. I have been an advocate of vetch and oats for a: feed crop and vetch for soil improve- i ment for several years, but vetch now! takes a new role with me." "There is no doubt that votch i makes an excellent green grazingj feed for work stock," ssys Prof. L. V., i?tarkey, chief of animal husbandry, commenting on Henderson's exipcri- j ejvce. He feels, however, that the i vetch grazing should go along with the use of some grain for best results in sustaining regularly working animals, but the vetch will certainly save both grain and dry roughsge and be good for the stock. j New Doctor Ur^cle Sam has Ibeen very sick.
