Commissioner Brown
Urges Food Acreage.
It is anticipated that the State
Council on Food Production and
Conservation appointed by Gov
ernor Harris and continued by
Dorsey, will be called into action
again early in the coming year.
There will be occasion and need
for its service.
Commenting upon the impor
tunt work before this council,
Commissioner J. J. Brown said :
“We must urge now and con
tinue to urge th »t in making pre
parations tor the new crops, farm
ers do not sacrifice food and feed
acreage to cotton. There will be
a great temptation to do it, but it
will be the most serious mistake
we can make.
“We are experiencing now the
distress of a sugar shortage, and
short supplies in other lines. It
will be the same tning with other
food and feed products, unless we
make what we need at home. We
should do better in 1918 than we
did in 1917.
“Let me on)! upon the members
of the State Council on Food Pro
duction and Conservation now to
exert every effort and influence
they can throughout their respec
tive communities, to induce the
farmers to make all possible food
crops, planting even a greater
acreage than this year. They
should be busy now, for we
are going to need every pound of
food we can raise, both for man
beast.
“If there were no food to be
had, dollar cotton could not buy
it. So let’s make the food and
have our cotton as a surplus. It
will then bring the price that we
feel it ought to bring.”
Deliverence of Jerusalem.
Since the poem was first penned
in the sixteenth century hundreds
of thousands of Christian believ
ers have sung the lines, ‘‘Jerusa
lem, My Happy Home, When
Shall I Come to Thee.”
Wonderfuliy tender and inspir
ational are the sentiments of the
old hymn.
Fate, destiny, providence, has
flung back the dark curtain of
Mohamedanism that has shrouded
Jerusalem for a number of censu
suries, and the hosts of Christen
dom are now looking to the res
toration of the sacred city with its
holy places to the possession of
Christian believers. .
Not they alone, but those of the
Mosaic dispensation likewise read
with much thrill the taking of
Jaffa by the Biitish. Jaffa being
the port of Jerusalem. Ezekiel,
in his vision, saw a man going
forth with a measuring rod in his
hand, and, upon inquiry, found
that he had been sent to measure
the bounds of the restored Jeru
salem that should be as a city
without walls for the multitude of
inhabitants thereof. The shades
of the Crusaders stanein line with
the shades of the Zionists of the
ages who have made the walls of
the sacred city their wailing place
while they cried out to the Lord
of Sabaoth, “How long, how
long!”
Mighty pulsations of providence
through the arteries of contempo
rary events are causing the world
war to do signal service to the
spirit of reverence with which
Jew and Gentile alike regard the
H'dy Land, so long the spoil of
the infidel Turk.

With.corn above SCK' hogs eat
their .heads off very quickly. The
hog that takes two or three months
to get on full feed never brings
you a profit.
When yoD are ready to put your
sboats on feed, begin with the B.
A. Thomas’ Hog Medicine. Use
regularly and watch your shoats
round out into fat hogs in nine
months—hogs going over 200
pounds and as high as 240 pounds.
Figure the average feeding and
you will see why the B. A. Thomas
medicine is a good investment.
Try feeding out your hogs on this
plan and if you are not more than
pleased, we will refund the cost
of the medicine. Henry Countv
