I J. L. eJ 4* The Home of J v Russian Widow* Come to U. S.' Moscow, Sept. 5.?Two Russian widows with seven children left Moscow recently on their way to rela-1 lives living in Lincoln, Nebr., the trip having been made possible by inheritance of $10,000 which came to them in the Volga Valley a few months ago when the famine was at its worst. During an inspection trip for the American Relief Administration last winter James P. Goodrich, former governor of Indiana, in one of the villages visited, was accosted by an old woman who said she had a certi icuto of seme kind from America, but that she had feared to show it to any one until the party of Americans came along. The paper in question was notification from the War Risk Bureau in i Washington saying $10,000 was due her from the United States govero( ment owing to the fact that her son Alexander Volz had been killed while ti^iuuiK wiiii mu AiiiHncan army tauc in 15)IS. It was difficult for the woman to realize what all this meant, owing to her weakened condition, and Governor Goodrich made efforts tc get assistance to Mrs. Volz as quickly as possible. But before aid came Mrs. Volz was taken ill and died. Subsequently her two daughtersin-law. widows of Henry and Daniel . brothers of Alexander, came into pos session of the money, and are being . '..iki"i to their new home by Georg< Repp, of Portland, Oregon, who ha: been a relief worker in the famirn ' area for more than a year.

Progress Made in Wipplpft* London, Sept. 5.?William Marconi, who has returned to London from E his American tour, is enthusiastic * over the vast progress made in wire- t less telegraphy and telephony in the | United States since his last visit. In t an interview he declared that the ^ Americans were far ahead of the i English in broadcasting and in wire- i ' less development generally. , "The Americans have reached a greater perfection of detail than have j the British," the famous inventor | | said. "The clearness of speeoh and the remarkable ease with which mes- ] sages are received in the United ; States is amazing." ; Mr. Marconi said the music tranaI mitted by wireless in America wat much clearer than the phonograph. ! "It is in fact," said he, "as loud as many American jazz bands, and that is saying a good deal. The party on our yacht was able to dance to music sent out by the broadcasting station i! at Schenectady, N. Y. In crossing the Atlantic Mr. Mar.' coni was able to make numerous tesis , of the behavior of what is called I j atmospheric disturbances. These > tests seemed to confirm the opinion . that the disturbances which inter. fere with wireless originate on the continents and not on the sea. When . he was near Europe, they all came f from the east, or European side, . whereas, when he was in mid-At lantic, he found that the disturbances i j were very few and weak, and that i they were coming from pretty well j all around. On nearing America, the disturbances from the European side were very weak, while those from the American side were more marki ed. , Gorgeous Coloring s Of Peacock Due to Reflected Light Pittsburgh, Pa., Sept. 5.?A film r of oil dropped on the pavement by an errant automobile contains the same color values as the highly decorative tail feathers of the peacock, said Dr. Wilder D. Bancroft, of Cornell University, speaking at the general meeting of the American Chemical Society today. "Everybody has noticed the bril' liantly colored patches on the pave^ ments where automobiles have spill* ed oil," said Dr. Bancroft. "The colL' ors range from red to gold to blue, and are very vivid or metallic. They 1 hange with the angle at which one ( j sees them, and they are not due to ; pigments, since we have a thin film I of nearly colorless oil. These colors - are due to the interference of light s reflected from ,the upper and lower surfaces of the film and they de< pend on the thickness of the film. which averages about one fifty-thou1 sandth of an inch. They are more ' vivid when oil is spilled on an as* phalt pavement than when on a dirt * road because there is less disturbing * light reflected from the black back' ground. "The brilliant colors of the tail ' feathers of the peacock and the apc parently self-luminous reds in the ' throat feathers of the humming bird " are not due to pigments. When one l! looks through a peacock's feathers one sees only a brown due to the e so-called melanin pigment which is * equivalent to the asphalt pavement. In all the iridescent feathers the bar' bules are flattened plates of brown " which therefore give the colors of *' thin films. The structure is so mark' ed that an expert can pick out the 1 iridescent feathers in the dark bv the 1 feel. "It is possible to duplicate the color effects of the peacock and the humming bird by putting a very thin r coat of varnish over any dark feather; but we cannot regulate the thick - ness with such accuracy as to pro " Juce the patterns of the peacock. - When one considers that variations L' in thickness of a hundred thousandth of one inch may change the color completely, it seems marvellous that .ill the tail feathers of all the pea' cocks can be so nearly alike. ' "The jjgck feathers of the white pigeon show practically no irrides' cence because the dark background is lacking If they are dyed brown, ' the iridescence appears in full force Or ihe other hand the white peacock is not an albino rn the sense of merely having no dark pigment. The whole structure of the feathers has changed. The barbules are not flat plates and consequently no brilliant colors can be developed by dyeing the feather brown or painting the back with India ink." An Income Tax War Now? An income tax war after the fashion of former tariff wars is something which British shop owners do hot contemplate with equanimity. At present, British law levies a tax upon the assumed profit made in the United Kingdom by foreign shipping lines sending their steamers to British ports. On the same business, these cKinntndP linno moir V\otra fn In imvo muj u?tc w j/ajr in" come tax in their home countries. Retaliation by other countries is what British shipping men fear. Of course, we are now in a position to retaliate, but oftr law holds forth an olive branch many a Britisher would like to seize; for it provides for reciprocity in such matters. If England will stop threatening to tax our 'steamship line s our existing law permits boats flying her flag to avoid our tax.?The Nation's business. The largest turtle ever imported in Tendon from India was killed re ? cently for soup. Its weight was 450 \ pounds. < t Santuc | loM , H ? apnu rain 'would fa* welcomed to n*ny crops now. We have had a rery rainy summer, and land was nuoh packed, so even cotton would be *anei\ted by some rain. " There ;s nuch of an intermediate planted corn vliich would be greatly improved. VJso peas, potatoes, etc., well, ibodt everything except fodder out >f doors, and hay. Fodder pulling is on hand, and nuch- has been saved in good condition. There is some good corn around here, especially where it was highly ferttlized, as the rainfall was good for it. Cotton Was begun to open freely, and picking will soon begin. It seems that the further we go into the season the more the crop begins to dwinule. Looking across a field from the road, at the plant growth, is no indication of what is in the field. We have just had two weeks sine* ctops were planted, and now it is hot. Only one day in August, the 1st 96 degrees, was holler than it is now, 95 degrees. From the 9th to the 31st the temperature never arose to 90 dfegrecs so "the cool week in Augustf^was about the entire month. Lei me give a summary, as taken from the cooperative weather bureau station bore, to wit: Mean maximum temperature 86.3 degrees, mean minimum 68.3 degrees, mean 77.3, highest 96, on the 1st; lowest, 54, on tlu 29th. Total precipitation 8.20. Great, est in 24 hours 3.34, date, 10th. Rain^ days, 10; clear, 13; partly cloudy, 12 cloudy, 6. Prevailing wind direction cast.

It has been announced that a series of meetings will begin at the Carlisl* Baptist church on next Thursday night, Sept. 7th. Rev. W. A. Stephen son will conduct the meeting, doinf the preaching. I was informed tha the ehureh there tried to get Mr Arthur )foi?3ims, of Heath Springs and who "was at the Baptist churcl here, to conduct the singing, but hi had previous engagements. An in vitated is extended to everybody ii reach to attend. The protracted meeting at the Bap tist church here, which began on thi fourth Sunday, ended Friday nigh following. There were seven addi tions to the church; five for baptisn and two by letter. That may no seem many, but one would be a grea "saving," and would "pay". Th church was revived whieh th, preachers generally say, is a health; thing. While "looking on" and watch ing the trend, it appears there is i closer bond of brotherly love and fra ternalism among the membershi] than ever before, and also with th pastor, Rev. W. A. Stephenson, whor ihey love. The pastor had no hel] in this meeting in the way of , preacher, but he had Mr. Arthur H Sims, of Health Springs, to lead th singing, who was a very great help ii that. He is a very fine singer, an< revived the singing. His solos wer. fine. I hope these late revival meeting? first at the Presbyterian church?o which I mentioned?and then th Baptist church, will do a great gooi at this and surrounding, sections, have not heard if they will have on< soon at/the Methodist church.

Build Soil With Crimson Clover r 3 Clemson College, Sept. 4.?On land j adapted to its growth crimson clover { is one of the best winter soilbuilding cover crops, for one acre of fairly . fertile land will produce 5 to 10 tons 2 of green growth that contains per ton approximately 8 pounds of nitrogen which is gathered from the air by ~ the bacteria on the roots of the clover, j Besides converting the air nitrogen into a form useful to the farmer, the ' clover saves the plant food already ' available in the soil by using it in its B growth and thus preventing loss byleaching and erosion during the win1 ter. The agronomists say that for bc3t results crimson clover should not be sown on very poor sundy or hard clay t soils. Vetch, rye and oats are the best winter cover crops for these) ^ soils. It is essential that crimson I . clover be inoculated unless it or om I ? of the true clovers has been previous- I p ly grown on the land. J It is best to sow at the rate of 15 " to 20 pounds of cleaned seed per acre -s between September 15 and October ^ 15, when there is enough moisture in the soil to sprout the seed and keep the young plant alive until it can deo velop a root system. Sowing just ben fore or just after a good rain will p practically insure a stand. It may be ,t sown in corn, or in cotton middles after the first or second picking, and "e covered lightly with a harrow, cultin vator or sweep. Freshly broken land j should be thoroughly harrowed and , rolled to give a firm seed bed before sowing. Stable manure is an excellent fer' tilizer for clover, for it has a very * beneficial effect on the legume bac0 teria as well as the plant and soil. ^ On land that has not been heavily fertilized 200 to 300 pounds of acid phoss phate may be used profitably at planting time. Crimson clover may be made a cash crop as well as a soil-improving * crop by allowing the seed to ripen and saving them by stripping with a r cheap homemade machine or by cut ting with a mower and threshing. From 6 to 10 bushels of clean seed are produced per acre, and at present t these seed are selling from $9.00 to'g3 $12.00 per bushel. i Card of Thanks J I I take this opportunity of thanking ' the good people of Buffalo for their ^ ; assistance during the sickness and \ death of our aunt and grandmother. :j: The good people of Buffalo have at- 5 ways had a warm place in my heart, :t\ but they have stood by me so faith- \i\ fully that my affection is How strong- \\ er than ever towards them, and may the Lord reward them for their unsel- \i\ , fish service.
