You know the reason why. o It is strnage how the idea has reach ed some farmers that the dipping of cattle is a forerunner of the stock law in this county; that it is only a step in order to enforce the abolition of fencing the crops and the beginning ?f a plan to leave the crops in the open nad fence off pastures for th< cattle. Nothing is further from tin truth, for the dipping would ho enforced just the same even if this section had the "no fence law." EAT COTTAG E CH EKSE?SAV-B* MEAT. There is skim m'lk on every farm where cows are kept. Skim milk is easily made into cottage cheese. A gallon makes 1 1-pounds. Cottage cheese is one of the best substitutes for meat, not only because of its food value but also because from it dishes can be made which fit into pur meals as meat does. There are more than 5,000,000 farms which keep dairy cows. A pound of cottage cheese each week made on each of these farms and used in place of meat Would mean a quartet of a billion pounds more meat available each year for emergency uses. If there is only a little skim milk, make cottage cheese from it and use it at home. Many farmers have skim milk enough to make cottage cheese for home use and to supply families in near-by towns. The United States Department of Agriculture urges that the cottage-cheese maker and the cc ttage-cheese user get together. Cottage cheese can be used alone in salads, as cottage cheese loaf, and in many oilier attractive dishes. Turn waste skim milk into a valubale meat substitute.

People aP over this groat section are fooling s0 much hotter than they have for the pa.>t throe years, on account of hotter crops and better prices; that they are taking more interests in outside affairs, and even though the Poo Deo Fair is more than a month off, there is already a lot of talk about it. As the fair covers the entire Pee Dee, this interest is general. The attendance will be a record breaker, and the exhibits will surpass any heretofore shown. Great advancement has been made i n inrrifiilt urn nnrt in t h r> livn ufrwb industry, and progress in these lines will be demonstrated by the exhibits. Then the women have accomplished wonders, and the womens department is certainly going to shine. The grounds will be put in the very best shape. There will be plenty of water, the lack of which has been something of a handicap before the city mains having been extended to the grounds. The amusement feature will be all that fun lovers can lesire. The premium list is now in he hands of the printer and will be nailed out as soon as printed.

A Philadelphia man who had nft qualifications for a soldier went P.evident Wilson's * secretary and said: "My Health is fine. Honest Mr. Tumulty, there ain't a thing the matter with me except I am afraid. 1 tell you I can't fight. I woke up in the middle of the night and sec myself under a pile of dead men, with tlv, cannon blatting all around and every bullet coming my way. It isn't that I don't want to be a soldier, but I just haven't got the goods, that's all." Any man who can talk this way 4 about himself is not a coward. In private life he is the man who at any moment might risk his life to save life and be heroic. C He might be more useful to his^ country than he would be in the trenches, and he might do twice the labor of a soldier for his country with out shrinking. In our rage for blaming ar.tf branding we <lo injustice to many useful and willing men. The man who can't lie, or who won't lie, can never be a coward.
