FAYETTEVILLE NEWS, FAYETTEVILLE, GEORGIA, "People Chicago Merchant Who Taught London tmmiiuiiiMiuuiiiiiimmiuiiiiiiiiumuHUMNM H. Gordon Selfridge, formerly of Chicago, is commonly referred to In the Windy City as the man who taught London how to run a department store. What the Londoners think of him may or may not be judged by this sketch of him by "Matt,” personality cartoon ist of the London Sketch: “Mr, H. Gordon Selfridge, who Is In rather a big way of business in Oxford street, was born In 1861 in Ripon, Wis., and has been gee-whizzing ever since, so to speak. At sixteen he went to Chicago and got work at the big stores of Field, Lelter & Co. at 14s a week, working his way up, step by step, till he was manager of the retail department of Marshall Field & Co., and ultimately a partner. “Retired In 1904 and bought a big business, to which he gave his own name. Sold advantageously in 1908. Then he set out to discover London. Has risen to occupy a castle which the ex-kaiser used to rent, and u peer’s residence in London. Hobby: The great game called business. Notable saying, ‘Contact with American people puts an edge on you,’ but does not explain whether it is a raw edge or not." Anyway, Mr. Selfridge Is on a visit to this country and dropped in on Chicago the other day, “merely for the purpose of visiting friends.” iiiimiiiuiHiiiHiiiiiHiiiimiiiiiiuiNinniiiiiiHiiNiiiiiHitiiiini Charges Against Anti-Saloon League iiiiintniitiiinimtiitituiiitininnttiitHiiiiKUiiiiimitfittHntKHttMiMtnnmimHttiiiiiiiitMiiiitfiiiiititHiiiuiMiimumiiiiiiiiiitMitiitiiiiiiiiMitiiiMnitiutmii iiiiimiuiiiiiMiiiiiiiiiiMiiiiiiiiiiiiiiHiiiiiiiuiiiiiiiiiiiiMiiimiiiiiMiiiiiiiiiiiiiiniiimuiuiiiiMiimiiiiiiiuiiiiiiiiiimiiiiiiiiiiiiiHiiimiiiiiiiiiiNtiiiuiiiiinni^|i iiuiimtiimitnmiiitHimiMiiHiiiii'ii i.imiKiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiuiiiiiiiiuiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiuiiiiiiMiiiiimiiiuMtiiiiitiiiniiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiimiiiiiimui Charges that the Anti-Saloon league, “through Its paid lobbyists,” Is seeking “to pollute the administra tion of justice” In the federal courts were made on the floor of the senate the other day by Senator John K. Shields of Tennessee. Senator Shields, formerly chief justice of the Tennessee Supreme court, spoke in opposition to the bill creating new federal judgeships to re lieve the congestion in the courts. He particularly assailed that portion of the bill which would give the chief justice of the United States Supreme court the power to assign judges in his discretion. Prosecution of the Anti-Saloon league by the department of justice for alleged violation of the corrupt practices act was demanded on the floor of the house by Representative Tinkham of Massachusetts. Mr. Tinkham vigorously denounced the league’s political activities and charged that false returns had been nmde “either by Wayne B. Wheeler, chief counsel for the league, (portrait here with) or by Elizabeth Roberts, assistant treasurer of the Wisconsin Anti-Saloon leugue." Testimony of Wayne B. Wheeler, genera.1 counsel of the Anti-Saloon league, before the house appropriations committee, now made public, revealed that the organization had protested the nomination “of half a dozen or more fed eral judges.” Mr. Wheeler added that he had never asked for the transfer of a federal judge. Mr. Wheeler was put through extensive examination by Mr. Tinkham concerning the league’s alleged activities in politics and its alleged influence in the selection of prohibition enforcement officers.

I 11 I II II I 1111 Public Ownership of the Coal Mines? The coal strike may force the pub lic to try the experiment of public ownership of the mines, in the opinion of Senator Borah of Idaho, chairman of the senate committee on labor, un less the whole coal industry is speed ily reorganized in the interest of the public. Senator Borah declares that the strike will force a reckoning not alone between operators and the miners but between the coal industry and the public. The industry cannot continue under its preseut system of operation and management. "If the coal industry is not reor ganized in the Interest of the public," Senator Borah said, “then It will be up to the public to try the experiment of public ownership. I do not under estimate the task which the public will assume when it undertakes this, but I doubt very much if the public will much longer submit to the present Inefficient method of operating the co al mines. “Take one Item in this chaotic industry, and that is the problem of irreg ular employment. The average bituminous mine runs about 200 or possibly 215 days out of 365. These unproductive hours are sheer waste. “Either labor or the consuming public must pay this, for a glance at the profits discloses that the operators take no part of it.” niMHiMtumiutimuiiiniiiiiuiiiiMiitiiiiimiMUMitiiiitiimiiiiiiHimiiiiiMi •MUMUniWIIMIUIIIIim.'

Van Winkle is ob served of all observers these days in Washington. She is the head of the woman’s bureau of the local police de partment. She has said the policemen are out to "get her." Anyway charges were made against her alleging “con duct prejudicial to the good order, reputation and discipline of the police force.” But what society is interested in Is “Will Mrs. Van Winkle tell?” There Is no doubt that she knows. She has made it a part of her official business to inquire. Mrs. Van Winkle is no ordinary “cop.” She is a woman of wealth and Intellectual attainments. She has lived at a hotel, where one-half the members of President Harding’s cabinet live, and which also is the home of half a hundred diplo mats and several hundred government officials. Mrs. Van Winkle lunches and dines at the down-town hotels where the social and official life of Washington cen ters. A handsome woman, swathed in the finest furs, Mrs. Van Winkle—oi Lieutenant Van Winkle, as she is officially known—looks to be a part of the social circles in which she could move if she so desired. Instead, the work of the police department "intrigues” her and she has entered into it with a zest Horticultural Hints PEACH TREE BORER HARMFUL Insects May Be Destroyed by Proper Use of Chemical Known as Paradichlorobenzene. Wherever peaches are grown In the United States east of the Rocky Moun tains the trunks and large roots of the trees are subject to attack by a white worm which feeds on the outer living layers of the tree. The peach tree borer may be detected by masses of gum containing sawdust-like par ticles which exude from the trunk of the tree near the ground. If the in festation is serious trees may be com pletely girdled In one or more seasons. The larvae feed actively In the fall, spring and summer months; during the cold winter they are more or less dormant. When the larvae become full grown during the summer they construct cocoons, composed of par ticles of excrement or bark bound to gether with gum and silk, and turn into brown pupae. The cocoons may be found on the trunk in the old bur rows or in the soil adjacent to the tree. In three or more weeks the adult moths emerge. The peach tree borer may be con trolled by removing or killing the borers by the use of a sharp knife or by treating with paradichlorobenzene. The gas coming from the crystals of paradichlorobenzene appears to be heavier than air. One ounce treat ments placed about peach trees when the temperature of the soil is 70 de grees F. or higher requires six or more weeks for complete evaporation, while one ounce of crystals placed about peach trees when the soil is 50 degrees F. or lower (as in November) will re main in the soil from November to July. Paradichlorobenzene Is non-poison- ous to man (unless taken into the stomach), but decidedly poisonous to insects when they are exposed to it "Death Ring" of Paradichlorobenzene. for a considerable period of time. The gas will injure tender roots and the growing tissues under the bark of most plants. Fortunately the bark on peach trees six years of age or older is thick and acts as a barrier for the tender growing layers underneath. The crystals should be evenly dis tributed in a continuous narrow cir cular band two inches from the tree. Do not place the crystals against the trunk, for serious injury may result. Materlnl placed four to six Inches from the tree has given fairly satisfactory results, providing the soil is dry and plenty of dirt to placed above the crystals. After the material is in a ring about the tree, place several shovels (four to six) of dirt free of weeds, grass, sticks, large stones, etc. over the crystals and compact them with a shovel, a hoe, or otherwise. The first shovel of earth placed above the “death ring” should be finely divided and carefully placed on top of the crystals in order that the position of the paradichloroben zene will not be disturbed. GOOSEBERRIES AND CURRANTS Soil Requirements Are More Exacting Than Those of Blackberries and Raspberries. The soil requirements of both gooseberries and currants are a little more exacting than those of either blackberries or raspberries, but a rea sonably good soil can be made to pro duce these crops If the location is right, and the proper kind of fertiliz er used. A northern slope Is to be preferred rather than a southern or eastern, and about the home, there is no better place than on the north of buildings and between the rows of fruit trees in the orchard. In the northern limit of production they would not need this protection from the sun. A sandy soil is not suited to either gooseberries or currants, though In some places in the extreme North they grow in the mountains where there seems to be little soil of any kind. Profitable Farm Orchard. A small farm orchard can be made a very profitable enterprise if it receives timely spraying and pruning. In fact a half-acre orchard will, on the aver age, when properly cared for, return a greater profit than several acres ’n ordinary farm crops. Preparing Orchard Soil. Preparation of the soil for orcharn setting should hardly be less thorough than for a corn crop. Just as they need a fertile soil, they need a soil well filled with humus. FEED YOUNG GUINEA CHICKS Fowls Are Natural Rangers and Do Not Require as Much as Ordinary Chickens. (Prepared by the United States Department of Agriculture.) Guinea chicks are fed in much the same way as chickens, but they re quire less feed as they are natural rangers and can be trusted to find enough seeds of weeds and grasses, bugs, insects and green vegetation in the fields to supply much of their liv ing. For the first 36 hours after hatch ing no feed is required, as the sus tenance from the egg is sufficient to nourish them for this period. The first meal may consist of a little hard-boiled egg mixed with bread crumbs, or bread may be soaked in milk, squeezed part ly dry, and fed in small bits. Clab bered milk also is very good. Three times a day is as often as they need to be fed, one feed consist ing of clabbered milk or the bread and egg or bread and milk mixture, and the other two of chick feed. If the coop is placed in a field or pasture where green feed is available, the guinea chicks can secure this for them selves ; otherwise, sprouted oats, dan delion leaves, lettuce, or onion tops cut fine should be furnished, say poultry specialists of United States Depart ment of Agriculture. Water, grit and fine oyster shell should be before them always. By the end of the first week the young guineas will be finding enough Guineas Pick Up Much of Their Food in the Shape of Bugs and Weeds. worms and Insects to take the place of the egg or milk feed, so this may be eliminated awe ■ chick feed given morn ing and night. If clabbered milk is available, however, it can be continued with excellent success, since guineas are very fond of variety in their ration and it is conducive to quick growth. As the birds grow older, whole wheat, oats and cracked Corn can be sub stituted gradually for the chick feed. CARING FOR BREEDING FLOCK if Fowls Are Overrun With Lice or Mites, Fertility Will Be Seri ously Affected. The breeding flock should bt> watched to see that the fowls keep in condition. If they are overrun with lice or mites the fertility will be af fected seriously or destroyed. Care Is to be used, too, to see that the male doesn’t get his comb or wattles frost ed. If the rooster’s comb or wattles are frozen to any extent, his ability as a breeder will be Impaired, and may not be recovered for several weeks. When the weather is very cold the males intended for breeding should be placed at night in a box or crate partly covered with a bag or cloth. It is a good idea, too, to ex amine his majesty occasionally at night to see that his crop is full, and that he is not going thin—if he runs at large. Roosters sometimes are so gallant that they allow the hens to eat all the food, with the result that they get out of condition. If t^ls hap pens the rooster should be caught at least once a day and fed separately from the hens. SPROUTED OATS IN SUMMER Succulent Properties Do Much to Maintain Egg Production Dur ing Whole Year. It will pay to continue the feeding of sprouted oats to the laying hens throughout most of the summer. There is only a short time in the spring when full advantage can be taken of natural green feed. It soon loses its succulent properties, how ever, and it will be an advantage to return to sprouted oats. It will do ns much to maintain the egg produc tion during the summer as silage does to maintain milk flow In the fall and winter. INCREASED PROFIT ON EGGS Where Graded Properly and Quality Maintained Higher Price Is Al- ways Obtained. If market eggs were graded ana pmlity maintained on the way to mar ket, the. value would be increased at least five cents a dozen. This would nut a large additional sum in the pockets of producers, while greatiy in creasing the reputation of shippers In :he markets of the nation. The KITCHEN CABINET Copyright, 1922.

Roasted Turnips. — Small peeled turnips parboiled until half cooked are drained and then placed in the roasting pan with the roast of mut ton. Baste with the roast and serve around the roast on the platter. Mutton stewed with turnips is a good dish. Beat one and one-half tablespoonfuls of butter and when bubbling hot add eight diced turnips, season with salt and cayenne and let cook a few minutes, then add one and a quarter cupfuls of weak stock and boil gently until the turnips are ten der, then the mutton and turnips are put together when the meat is nearly cooked. Add a tablespoonful of flour browned In a little butter, boiling five minutes. C,racked Wheat Bread.—Boil one cupful of cracked wheat in three cup fuls of boiling water for one hour, then add when cool one-half cupful of molasses, two teaspoonfuls of salt, a yeast cake dissolved in one-lialf cup ful of tepid water, two tablespoonfuls of butter and sufficient flour to make a dough to knead. Knead until well mixed, divide into two loaves nnd place in buttered pans. Let rise again and bake for forty to fifty min utes in a moderate oven. Another good bread is made by mixing a cup ful of cooked cracked wheat with a cupful of cornmeal, two tenspoonfuls of baking powder, a teaspoonful of salt, a tnblespoonful of butter, two beaten yolks and one and one-half cupfuls of milk. Fold in the beaten whites and bake in' a baking dish. Serve from the dish.

Smith WHAT TO PUT INTO THE COOKY JAR Is there any sweet which takes the place of a nicely made cooky? If so we hope to hear about It. In the making'and bak ing of any kind of cookies, care must be taken to make them ac cording to direc tions and use great care In the baking. Old-Fashioned Ginger Snaps.—Bring to the boiling point one cupful of molasses, add one-half cupful of sugar and two-thirds of a cupful of butter or good shortening, one tablespoonful of ginger, one-half teaspoonful of salt, and one teaspoonful of soda. Beat and mix well and set on Ice after add ing enough flour to roll. When well chilled, roll and cut. Bake in a moder ate oven. Grandma’s Cookies.—Cream one cup ful of butter and add two cupfuls of sugar and three well-beaten eggs. Dissolve a teaspoonful of soda in a tablespoonful of hot water, add two tablespoonfuls of cream and mix all the ingredients together. Add one and one-half tablespoonfuls of ginger and flour to roll (three or four cup fuls). Place in the ice chest over night. In the morning roll very thin, cut out nnd bake. Honey Ginger Snaps.—Take a pound of honey (one pint); three-fourths of a pound of butter (one nnd one-lialf cup fuls) ; two teaspoonfuls of ginger; boil together for five minutes. When cool add enough flour, using one teaspoon ful of baking powder to each cupful, to make a stiff dough. Roll very thin and bake quickly. Sugar Cookies.—Cream one cupful of butter and three cupfuls of sugar together, add three well-beaten eggs, one cupful of milk in which one tea spoonful of soda has been dissolved, one small nutmeg grated, and flour to roll. One may vary this recipe by adding grated orange or lemon peel, nuts, or seeds of various kinds. This makes a large quantity, hut they are so good that they do not last long. The secret of good cooky making li> to use as little flour as possible In roll ing out. By chilling the mixture well, the rolling out is very easy.

WOMEN OFMIDDLEAGE ATrying Period Through Which Every Woman Must Pass Practical Suggestions Given by the Women Whose Letters Follow Phila., Pa.—"When I was going through the Change of Life 1 was weak, nervous, dizzy and had head aches. I was troubled in this way for two years and was hardly able to do my work. My friends advised me to take Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound, and I am very sorry that I did not take it sooner. But I have got good results from it and am now able to do my housework most of the time. I recommend your medicine to those who have similar troubles. I do not like publicity, but if it will help other women I will be glad for you to use my letter.’’—Mrs. Fan nie Rosenstein, 882 N. Holly St, Phila., Pa. Detroit, Michigan—“During the Change of Life I had a lot of stomach trouble and was bothered a great deal with hot flashes. Sometimes I was notable to do any work at all. I read about Lydia E.
