A % Washington.?Disposition of ail surplus substitonce commodities j held by the war department is pro- j vided for in modifications of the ori- | ginal plans announced today. Sale < of only canned and cured meat and ! canned vegetables was plannd at first. Provision is made for meeting the demand in towns where the chai"ter restrictions prevent the purchase in the manner provided or prescribed by the war department. In such cases the mayor or some commissioner may act as the agent. Instead of carload lots of 30,000 pounds sales may be made in as small lots as a single case or carton. The prices quoted to municipalities are the basic price of the department in offering the commodities for sale through the parcel post. Sales of surplus war department food direct to the public by parcel post will begin Monday, the war department announced. The necessary forms and blanks for use by the 58,000 postmasters now are being provided by the war department. The announcement said sales wtuld be made in case or carton lots onlv and nurchasers would have to add the cost of delivery by parcel pest from the storage points where the food now is held. Prices for the food were quoted *s follows: Meats: Corn beef, No. 1 can 30 cents; No. 2 can f>8 cents; f> pound can $2.

The sale, the war depeartment said, "will be the largest direct sale to the American people ever attempt led." The prices were stated to be | "materially lower" than those prevailing in the commercial market and the food was described as being in excellent condition. The department said surplus property officers, at Boston, New York, Baltimore, New i XTA i-1 Qf [JUri i\ mv. Louis, New Orleans, Fort Sam Houston, El Paso, Omaha and San Francisco had been directed to make the sales. Presumably the regular zone rates for parcels post will apply from these cities in determining the cost to purchasers by the pai-cel post system. o_ There was a strong demand for cot ton mill stocks and numerous sales were recorded at about the same pi ices which have prevailed. The Korean Women's Society of San Francisco sent an appeal to President Wilson to intervene to protect Korea from "Japanese aggression."

Clemson College.?County Agent Sanders shows below the value of land preparation with tractor plowing as opposed to mule-power plowing. "There are several tractors in the county, and many farmers would buy, but are just waiting to see if the amount of money spent for one is practicable from the standpoint of the life of a tractor. Yesterday 1 was in W. A. Uarby s iield that was biokon with a Fordson and a Disc plow. A small strip in the center cf the field was broken with a twohorse turn plow. The com on the land broken by the tractor was 12 to 17 inches higher than on the land broken with the turnplow. I remember five years ago as county agent in Arkansas when the same comparisons ; were being made with crops on land 1 in same field broken with 2 big mules and a turn plow and 1 mule and a Georgia plowstock. The tractor prep aration on sandy soils with clay subsoil is as far ahead of the two-horse turn plow as that was ahead of the Georgia plowstock five years ago in Arkansas on the same grade of land." j "FAKE" ASPIRIN j fc.

At the conference 01 swine extension workers of the United States Department of Agriculture, held recently in Washington, the question of weaning pigs arose. The discussion brought out the fact that in followed practice of weaning thier pigs at 'most all ages from five Svecks up. The conclusions reached were that foi best results pigs should be allowe< J to nurse the sow for at least l( weeks where it is possible to do so. I was decided that it would be stil better to allow the pigs to weai themselves. A good suckling so\ properly fed should be in a good flo> of milk up to the time the pigs are ? least 10 weeks of age. Without que tion the mother's milk is the be: feed possible to obtain for your pig Consequently hog growers shoul take advantage of this natural fe< to the greatest extent possible. o The special treaty with Franc piomising immediate American aid that republic in repelling any unpr trrtlrrn-l nt.t.nrlf hv Oermanv. was se to the senate by President Wilson la week. o State of Ohio, City of Toledo, Luc County?so.
