Judging from press dispnehes
of the last few das the allies
have made substantial progress
against their enemies Germany
and Austria The effort of the
Germans to occupy the cat of
northern France has signally fail-
eJ and the Germans have bet n
forced to recede from important
lipsitions taken The French and
British ary making a stubVrn
and effective resistance against
tho Invaders and are proving
quite as apt in the arts of war as
the Germans It appears aNo
that the Russians are making
progress in the cast The war
has now been in progress for
more than three months ami th"
Germans are farther from Paris
than they were a month ago
They boasted at the outset that
they would take Paris in thirty
days
The farmers of this locality are
neglecting to sow a large acreage

of winter w htat A month ago
it was predicted that a largo
acreage would be sown but it is
failing to matemlixo If we are
to reduce tho cotton acreage very
i substantially the wheat ought to
be sown and November is a
good month for w heat sowing It
is stateJ that many farmers are
not able to purchase seed be-
cause of low price cotton and
high price wheat Doubtless
every farmer could secure seed
for a few acres and many of
them are able to secure seed In
almost unlimited quantities The
News believes that the hanks of
the country will render all legiti
mate and reasonable assistance
and we believe that the farmer
who neglects to sow winter wheat
will make a great mistake
KEEP YOUR MONEY AT HOME
At tho present time while
business in all lines is extremely
dull and money is scarce the
great mail order houses of the
large cities are flooding the coun-
try with “special bargain" cata-
logues and making- every effort
to hold their trade in the small
country towns The great stock
of goods which these catalogues
describe with all the brilliant de-
scription of their expert adver-
tising writer is in reality the
accumulation of unsaleable goods
which has been stacked back in
their great warerooms awaiting
just such a time as this to be
offered to the unthinking public
as bargains along with the state-
ment that the managers love you
so much and have so great an
interest in your welfare that
they have decided to sacrafice
their entire profits and sell you
goods during the hard times at
actual wholesale prices We'll
admit that they love you jnost
sincerely for the one and only
reason that they must have your
patronage in order to exist but
do they love you enough to selj

you good on credit during the
hard times and allow you to pay
for them a year or two year
from now? Not much they don’t
It takes the cold hard cash of the
realm to get one single article
from their grent wain-homes ard
when your cash runs out they
treat you in tho same manner as
the saloon kccjer treats a once
proserous customer who has
gone broke— kick you out the
back door and let you do the
worrying
It is time for every customer
of the mail order houjes to look
at this proposition in a different
light No one can doubt that in
this immediate section times will
be somewhat hard during the en-
tire coming year and practically
everyone will need more or less
credit In justice to the home
merchant and the home banker
you should spend what cash you
have w’ith them that you will ex-
pect to carry your account while
you make a crop Every dollar
that you can keep at home during
the strenuous times is just one
dollar greater cash reserve in our
OWN community and will enable
the merchant and banker to help
you just one dollar longer than
they oould if that dollar went to
the treasurer of a mail order

AVOID SALICYLIC ACID
Utoe OF "PRESERVATIVE" CON-
DEMNED BY EXPERT
Unnecessary Except Where Uncleanly
or Carelfss Work Is Done In the
’ Kitchen — Government Bulletins
on the Subject
The attention of the department of
agriculture has recently been called
to the widespread use especially In
rural communities of salicylic acid in
putting up preserves The head of a
large drug and chemical supply house
states that people living In southwest
Virginia North and South Carolina
Kentucky Tennessee and western
Georgia have been purchasing salicylic
acid In one-fourth-pound packages for
a number of years and that this prac-
tise has grown to an enormous extent
This dealer states further that only a
few weeks ago he received an order
from one wholesale grocer for 50 gross
o! these goods
The department is aware that this
practise is not confined to salicylic
acid under its own name alone but
that large Quantltiegof this acid and
of Doric acid as well are sold under
fanciful names as preserving powders
or canning compounds at prices which
are much In excess of their real value
In the directions for use the house-
wife is told to fill the Jar with the
fruit or vegetables cover with water
and add a teaspoonful of the powder
It Is true that these powders may pre-
vent the decay of the fruit or vege-
table but they also encourage unclean-
ly or careless work and ’ their exces-
sive use may be attended with very
6erlous effects upon the health
Salicylic acid Is a medicine of the
greatest value in acute articular rheu-
matism and certain other diseases It
is well known as a poisonous sub-
stance and one of the evils which may
accompany Its use is derangement of
the digestion It is therefore plain
that its extensive use In food may lead
to disturbance of digestion and health
It is entirely practicable to put up
both fruits and vegetables in such a
manner that they will kfcep indefinite-
ly by sterilizing the products by means
of heat and there Is no excuse for
running any risk by the using of pre-
serving powders The department of
agriculture has issued the following
fanners’ bulletins on canning and pre-
serving: P B 203 Canned Fruit Preserves
and Jellies
P B 359 Canning Vegetables In the
Home
F B 521 Canning Tomatoes at
Home and in Club Work
These bulletins which may be ob-
tained without cost by applying to the
division of publications of the depart-
ment give exact directions for can-
ning and preserving foods without the
use of preserving powders or canning
compounds
