Kggs In food value com? next to milk which come? first. Kggs are the second perfect food. Therefor? eggs should be serv- I d In some form In each day's diet.

March 2l>- A Florida school teacher and hl? pupil have developed an explosive from orange peel which the teacher, Francis C. Sclgler. of Ocoee. described us more powerful than ordinary gunpowder. A .small amount of citrus peel powder, mixed with common household chemical blasted a garbage can high into the air. Selgler reported his experiment to the Florida Vocational Association here. A similar discovery was reported recently by a scientist fn Palestine who came to the United States In an effort to put It Into production. "We found quite by accident," SeJgler said, "than when you break i and mash an orange peel, the juice and gas burn with a bright blue flame. [ Wo have been able to crystallze tho .Juice, mix It with common cheap chemical and create an explosive. Ho did not name tho chemical. Selgler said he had offered his secret to the U. S. War Department through Senator Charles O. Andrews of Florida. Tho anti-craft searchlights used by the U. S. Army throw a beam of 800 million candlepower a distance of Ave and one-half miles. In a recent test, a newspaper was read by tho light of one searchlight 12 miles away.

Royer Lumber Company, one of the larget lumber plants in this section, was again visited by tiro at midnight Tuesday night. Slightly over a year ago this same firm had its plant entirely destroyed by fire, but the tlrcnien brought tho 'blaze under control Tuesday night before it had gained too much headway. The boiler and boiler shed wore completely destroyed and the loss is estimated to be In the neighborhood of a 'thousand dollars, with no Insurance. Mr. Royer had a crow at work Wednesday afternoon clfeaning up In preparation for tho Installation of a new unit. Due to the fact that the mill is 2,(K)0 feet away from a fire hydrant the Are department had some difficulty in getting the water to .the scene of the Are, but tho wind -was favorable and the \ fire was ?x>tt under control.?Bishopville Messenger. a"Germany may find that Bhe Is worse off by reason of some of the countries she has taken." says a correspondent of a newspaper. Y&s, she might be like th? old Negro who got married and about ton days later went to the preacher who performed tho ceremony to tell him he wanted a divorce. "You can't do that?you took Mandy for better or worse," tho horrified preacher told him. "Yes, but she's lots worse than I took her for." was the old Negro's retort. j"* 1 1 ' . ; ?: Chronicle Selected For Big Contract Farmers of Kershaw county will got important factn^about fertilizer In the pages of The Chronicle during the coming months. * Thomas Ancrum, manager of the Bout hern Cotton Oil Company, announces that his company will Boon begin a series of advertisements about 8co-Co fertilizers in Oils |vaper.

"Our firm, the Southern Cotton Oil Company, is known throughout the South as a neighborly Inst tut ion, and lias been serving tho Southern farmer continuously since 1887," Mr. Annum explulned. "Naturally .with our success being so dependent on the fanners' own prosperity, we could not afford to put out any but the best In fertilizers. 8-co-Oo fertilizers ure made right In this region, to fit our particular crop and soil conditions. We are well prepared to give prompt, reliable service on all Seo-Co orders. "Our compuny has chosen The Chronicle to carry these Important messagos because of "its influential leadorshlp in this district," Mr. Ancrum said, "Surveys have proved that farmers depend upon their county weekly for information that will help them to farm profitably. That is why the Soo-co series has been awarded to The Chronicle. The farmers of this section have been improving tho grudo of their cotton by selecting choice seed, using better grades of fertilizers and intelligent cultivation. They are more exact* ing as to modern machinery in gins to handle their cotton. Most of tho gins are kooplng abreast of tho times by Installing the latest type cleaners, driers, and the like. The Southern Cotton Oil company has for several years beon sending samples of each bale to the If. S. department of agriculture for classification and they have been mailing the farmer a postal card showing grade and staple length. In caeo the cotton goes Into storage, the farmer will have this Information as a guide when he sells. CITY TAX SALES Under and by virtue of sundry City Tax Executions directed to me by l-<ouiso W.

BOY KIN, City Cfer* u4 Troaaarsr Banker Balked By Old Scotty Los4 Angeles, March 14?Federal Judge Benjamin Harrison said from the bench today that Walter Scott, famous desert prospector known aa Death Valley Scotty, "stands hero a confessed cheat." Ills remark was made immediately after the defense rested In the trial of a suit Julian M. (ierard. New York investment hanker, brought against Scott for uu accounting on old grubstake claim agreement. Gerard seeks a 22 1-2 per emit interest In everything Scotty has taken out of the rocks since 15>07. "1 want to hear from the plaintiff what he lias established," said Judge Harrison, directing his remarks to Gerard's attorneys. "I'd like to hoar what we liavo to quarrel about. "There has been no evidence here indicating any property out there that Scott lias an interest in. You doubt expect me to believe his statement that he has buried gold certificates and gold ore. "Scott stands here a confessed cheat. He took Gerard for a cleaning. I don't believe he has any property upon which an equity could act." Gerard's attorneys said that "if this is a fraud," they feel they should bo entitled to a judgment. "When a man from the desert goes to the city," said Judge Harrison, "they sell him the Woolworth building. Al) he gets out of It la a laugh. Earlier, Judge Harrison had commented, "It looks like a man from the desert took the city man down the line." ^Highlighting -the day's testimony was Scott's story of how ho took five or six thousand dollara in gambling winnings during the hectic goldrush days of Goldfleld and invested them in mining stocks that evontually returned $100,000. That was in 1908. Scotty said he hid $10,000 gold certificates in a desert canyon cache ne described as a "spendthrift thrust" bank?"a tough place where, when you want It, by the time you get it, it's bo hard to get out you're out of the notion to spend it." Two years later, the prospector said, a cloudburst washed out the canyon, and ho wrote the Secretary of the Treasury about it and was told that If he found it, he could keep it. Whether he did remains a mystery. CADET BATES HAS COMMISSION IN CHEMICAL SERVICE: Charleston. S. C., March 24?Cadet William W.

' m A REPORT to America The Ford Motor Company's business has always been to serve the needs of the American people. In providing them with low-cost transportation for the past 38 years, we have developed one of the country's largest and most useful industrial units. During a national emergency, we feel that these facilities should be devoted without reserve to our country's needs. Toward that end we started rolling months ago, with these results: 1 A $21,000,000 Ford airplane en gine factory, started only 6 months ago, is nearly completed. Production will start with an initial order for 4,236 eighteen cylinder, air-cooled, double-row, radial engines. 2 We are building a new $800,000 Ford magnesium alloy foundry, one of the few in the country. It is already producing lightweight airplane engine castings. 3 Army reconnaissance cars ? military vehicles of an entirely new type ? are rolling off special Ford assembly lines at the rate of more than 600 a month. We have produced Army staff cars and bomber service trucks. A The government has given the "go-ahead" and work is now under way for the fast construction of an $11,000,000 Ford plant _ to produce bomber airframe assemblies by mass produclion methods. xQH 5 Several months ago work was started, on our own initiative, on an entirely new 1500 horsepower airplane engine especially designed for mass production. This engine is now in the test stage and plans are being developed for producing it in large quantities when and if needed, 6 A Ford aircraft apprentice school has been established, to train 2000 students at a time. That is a report of progress to date. The experience and facilities of this company can be used to do much of the job which America now needs to get done in a hurry. Our way of working, which avoids all possible red tape, enables us to get results and get them fast. This benefits users of our products and workers who produce them. We are ready to make anything we know how to make, to make it to the limit of our capacity if need be, to make it as fast as we can go, and to start the next job whenever our country asks us to. And to this end, we know we have the full confidence and loyal support of the workmen throughout our plants. I FORD MOTOR COMPANY 4tf
