JUNE 26, 1918 LEE C00CH The fire of the hearth at the Cooch homestead dulls, flickers, and only the glow of dying embers remains. The Master has gone. In the death of Lee Cooch the com munity has lost a good, good friend. Interested in all and everything he played a modest but effective part in every movement i toward better things. Farm life and public schools were his hob hies, and any proposition for the advancement of these had his in -, terest, his support, and to make effective, his energv. Never dra matic or spectacular, he did a work He knew and under worth while. stood the hard problems of more farmers than perhaps any man in the countv, and gave himself un- : selfishly to solve them. His career was short but none the less well done. In his home the man and gentle man showed best. Here, he with his family, carried out well the traditions which shadow around his historic home. At the fireside there has been in recent years a hospitality that fortuned friends will recall with more than passing pleasure. The grace, cheer, and freedom of thought of those gath erings will linger through the passing years. The fire flickers. The Master is away. Those who remain gather round the hearth. Memory, pile* on the wood. ' OBITUARY (Continued from Page 11 degree. B. L., from Delaware Col lege. at the Mary E. States, aged öS years, died at the home of her son. Geo.

Not much is required to pass the loyalty test when one's country is not at war; a simple compliance with the law is all that is required. But loya'.tv in war times is not a passive quality. At such a time one may be without loyalty and still not bo disloyal. A person of this type will do nothing either to as sist or to harm h's country. He will n:t give himself to his coun try's service and he will not con tribute financial support. Neither will In discourage others from do ing this. He will do or say noth-jtiana. ing treasonable, rid ne ther will he do c" sav anything to put heart in the fighting forces or to uphold the Nation in 'ts struggle He will be sitnplv a passive onlooker. And that is not being loyal. ; Our country is fighting in the most desperate struggle of history. ! It is a struggle so vast and mo-; mentous as to demand the most ! complete support of every one of i its citizens. Passive loyalty—the ! is not suffi The brand of loyalty now ; loyalty of peace times cient. demanded is the kind that impels ] i one °fler himself and his all, if necessary, that his eounti y may be victorious in the gieat conflict, Most of us can not go into the fighting forces ; most of us can not enter into those industries directly | connected with the war, but all of can show our neighbors that we have the right brand of patriotism. ; Our Government is urging upon us the necessity of saving as an j We are told : essential to victory, that there is not enough man | P°"' er and not sufficient materials in the country to win a quick vie-1 tory if we continue to use this man j power and thesl materials as we ; ; did before the war. It is pointed, out that there are now more than { 2,000,000 men in the Army and ' Navy, and that by August 1 this ! number will be increased to 3,000,-! 000, with a steady addition to that j number from then on. These men not only cease to be producers, but they become consumers on a vast sca j e ' Thus it is that we are urged to buv onlv those things which we need in order that we shall not use up labor and waste materials and transportation, so vitally necessary to the Government in its war work and so much needed in the manu ■ health and efficiency of our c facture of things essential to the i- 1 shali gi'e : on to our loyalty i militant loyalty, the brand j nps us as being willing to do our part at home by saerific by getting down to a war by backing up our Govern ment with all our strength. With our money savings we can then buy j War Savings Stamps and perform a double service by giving the Government current funds with which to buy the labor and ma-; terials so much needed for war; purposes which we have refraned ! from using. That is loyalty. _ _ MEN REPORT TO DRAFT HEADQUARTERS zens.

More Than 500 Extension Workers Added Last Month at During May 515 extension work ers were added to the force now aiding the Department of Agricul tu re in its food production and conservation program. This brings the total number of workers to 6,166, an increase of over 4,000 do ing similar work on July 1 ot last yea r. Most of the additions made in May were in emergency work. In this classification theie were on une 1, 2,129 county agents, 1,500 . home-demonstration agents, and ' 951 boys' and girls' club workei s, ! t making a total in the emergency j work alone of 4,580 compared with 4> 038 in the work on May 1. | Lumber Camps to Conserve Food j | Four thousand lumbermen in ; Montana will be reached in a food- j conservation campaign this SUm-j mer.

A food-saving program has been planned, with which this j special demonstrator will reach every camp in the State. Sunflower» for Silage Expediments with sunflowers to' determine their suitability for sil ! age are being conducted in the I western United States by the Bu i reau of Plant Industry, in coopera | tion with State experiment sta | tions. There are indications that I this crop be specially useful in ; regions where the growing season ^ is too cool for the production of j ; large yields of Silage corn. The j experiments were begun in 1917 at j Huntley, Montana, and Seottsbluff, Nebraska, and the first year's re sults led the investigators to ex tend the work to other points this j In 1917 the yields of sun : year. flower silage exceeded those of corn silage in the same fields from 1 50 to 100 percent. Yields of more 1 than 20 tons per acre were obtain- ed under irrigation. Preliminary feeding tests have indicated that the sunflower silage may be sub- stituted satisfactorily for corn sil- age, but directly comparable re- suits have not yet been obtained in sufficient volume to justify a full ; statement as to the comparative values of the two feeds. * PUBLIC SALE OF PERSONAL PROPERTY North Chapel Street' SATURDAY, JUNE 29 , at one 0 . cIock Entire contenta of House, alto 16 hem email chicken». at my residence on Telephone Electricians— No per ;^ nce needed We oav whi . p awhile learning.
