Most of the beeches of leading officials, including even Presidents of the United States, have been written in recent years by "these professional "ghost writers." It's an old trick. Prom time immemorial elleged personal interviews w ith celebrities have been prepared in advance by knowing reporters and published as utterances of the celebrity concerned. The sraroe is true of i most of tTie various.'/testimonials' for i this and that wTiitfh "have appeared as advertisements. | An amusing and somewhat embar- !.c&,ss,5ng incidtnit Occurred lit 1932, i when Franklin D. Hooscvelt and A1 [Smith were candidates for the Democratic- presidential nomination. It appears that both had commissioned a proup of "ghosters" at Columbia to prepare speeches for them. When delivered it was discovered that both speeches contained identical clauses. Other similar instances have occurred. Once former President Hoover and Huey Long used identical phras-eg in public addresses.. It is declared that in one of the late President Coolidge's speeches was found verbatim a clause from a standard encyclopedia. The prize example of the i ghost writer's handiwork Was exhibit- ! ed recently when two administration supporters delivered addresses which were alike in their entirety. | So, when you hear a flowery speech | in the future it may not be unkind to reflect that while you hear the voice of Jacob, the Oration may have been writteri by the/hand of a "ghosting" Esau. • SCHAEFER'S TAVERN East of the Old River Bridge • Mixed Drinks - Light Lunches - 5 and 10c Beer FISH FRY FRIDAY NITE--IOC per plate :.

Following the assassination of th,e : "Archduke Francis Ferdinand, heir presumptive to the throne of Austria- I Hungary, on June 28, 1914, the stage was speedily set for the Great War, which* formally begantby Austria's de- ; claration of war on Servia exactly one month later, on July 28th. Other declarations of war followed ! witih dramatic swiftness: Germany against Russia, August 1; Germany against France, Belgium and England, j August 4. Thus by August 4 all ^iopo | of averting a general European war jhad vanished, and in a few months i Germany, Austria, Turkey and Buli garia (known thereafter as the Central Powers) faced practically all the I rest of Europe (designated as the Allies.) With the entry of the United States i and most of the countries of the west ern hemisphere into the water o.n the i side of the Allies in 1917, no less than j 23 nations were arrayed against the four Central Powers. • The total number of men mobilized was nearly 65 million, of which approximately two thirds were on the side of the Allies. The Allied losses were 5,152,115 killedor died, 12,831,- 004 wounded, and 4,k21,090 prisoners or missing. The Central Powers lost 3,386,200 killed or died, 8,388,448 wounded, and 3,629,829 prisoners or missing. War - expenditures reached, the incomprehensible total of 186 billion dollars, and of this vast sum the-Allies a)«o spent about two thirds, I All this wasW of lives and treasure j is still reflected in t|he f nhappy. economic condition of the world.

In recent years there have been T€- j ports of the discovery of a powerful "'death ray" by various persons,, but none of them seems to have amount- | ed to anything. This month, however, ithe famous. 77-year-olcl inventor, Nik- ! ola Tesla, announced that hef had pro- ! duced a. destructive ray which could be projected many miles, destroying j everything in its path. j This mysterious new ray would be ; of greatest value as a protection of cities from enemy attack, according to the inventor, who declares it could be projected in vast curtains 100 miles jlong and several miles high, which would be impenetrable from land or air. If announced by an unknown inventor, the extravagant claims made for the hew ray would hardly be taken seriously. Coming from one of Dr Tesla's^ standing they will have re spectful consideration, at least. Born tn Europe, Dr. Tesla came to America and became associated with Thomas A. Edison 50 years ago, and is a naturalized American citizen. He has been granted about 100 patents some of which marked revolutionary advances in the electrical arre. For several years he has beep^ngjiged in efforts to solve the prot/emof electrical transmission withouVAvires Dr.. Tesla is reported tcTSmve expressed his intention to plaW his death ray at the disposal of tHe Gen e'va disarmament Confer/nc<j \Tv thr interest of peace. He cofSider? new fnvention to be a defensive,wea pon, whose pilVpose is to make war foolhardy venture' in the future. Further developments and tests the Tesla death raywill be awaited with intense interest.

Brannon, Bxtenalon EntMBOlOCfst. / North Carolina Stat* Oollec*. WNU Service. The us« of a poisoned bran inixtt^re to kill cutworms and prevent their damaging early vegetable crops is especially recommended. - . Early in the spring, when the worms first get busy, the young plants are particularly susceptible to damage. Growers should watch their plants closely and apply the poisonous bait at the first sign of cutworms. In expyjjtignts, best results have been obtained from a mixture of one potind of paris green to 50 pounds of bran. Sodium fluoride will also give good results, but lead arsenate and calcium arsenate should be avoided. The poisoned bait should never be left where children or live stock can get at It. About four pounds of braa-parls green bait should be applied to each 100 square yards of tobacco plant bed to control cutworms. No lumps will come in direct contact with the tender yotlng plants. - For most other crops, the bait should be broadcast at the rate of 15 to 20 pounds to the acre. The bait should be applied a few days before the plants coine up, or on the day they come up, at the latest. Applications are most effective in the evening so that the bait will be fresh when the worms go to work. New applications , should <be made aftter heavy rains. The bran and poison should be well mixed while dry, then moistened with' just enough water to dampen but not wet it. The. mixed bait should not form large lumps or be sticky and mushy. ' 'Test Proves Old Style Corn Ears Out of Date The modeT ear of corn of a few years ago is as much out of date as the motor car of the same period, and production methods are undergoing changes which increase the efficiency of the corn farmer as much as improved methods have beWfited m6=" chanical industries. \Jk These facts are disclosed "In a survey of the records of the ten-acre corn yield tests conducted in Nebraska during ^the past ten years. What is true of corn production is equally trde of other -branches of agriculture. P. H. Stewart, extension agronomist at the University of Nebraska, says. The corn ear now most in demand for seed, Stewart points out, is no longer the longest earl The emphasis is placed on smooth, hard starch, -medium size ears. Ten years of experimentation in ten-acre tests have proved that corn from seed of this, type shows in the best production records. The result of the experimentation has been ah increase in production and a decrease in the cost per bushel. Farmers have been able to reduce greatly the number of hours per acre pt labor Required to grow corn.- Buds on Tree Differ • Botany teaches us that buds and fruits are but the extensions of the twig growtl^Just as our hair and finger nails are outgrowths of the skin. The old-fashioned theory that all the buds from a tree of certain variety are identical is disproved by literally thousands of instances. Buds partake of the same cell characteristics as the branch on which they grow. A branch whose genetic factor produces solid red apples consistently, while a branch whose cell factors are mixed will produce mixed colored apples consistently.-- Greening Nursery. Land Checked New Wa Methods for estimatinajh<~area in fields of various shapes irr,e explained la a new circular on "How to Calculate Field Areas," which has been issued by the University of,.Maryland extension service, ft'dea'ls with triangular,' rectangular and irregularly shaped fields and explains how to make the necessary corrections for fields that are sloping.
