29 Bushels Per Acre
Record Wheat Crop
Bedford, Del.. BepL 10.—Ross &
Son, Seaford farmers, report one of
tho best yields of wheat grown in
Sussex county, notwithstanding the
unfavorable weather conditions
which the wheat crop of this penin
sula passed through during the lat
ter part of June and July, when in
cessant rains greatly hindered the
crop.
They' had in 163 acres, which
averaged them 29 bushels to the
acre. This is considered an excep
tionally fine yield, considering the
fact that from twelve to fifteen
bushels per acre is the average yield
in this section, nnd shows the Ross'
are making two bushels of wheat
grow where one formerly grew.
They planted the beaded purple
seed and used 400 pounds of phos
phate and nitrate to the acre.

Cheapest Domestic
Anthracite Fuel
T) UCKWHEAT COAL is the most economical fuel
-D you can use for hot-water and steam-heating
furnaces.
The price of Buckwheat Coal this month is §2.10
per 2000 lbs. less than Pea size coal and nearly $4.00
per 2000 lbs. lower than Egg and Stove sizes.
When using Buckwheat coal exclusively it is well
to carry a layer of ashes on the grates to prevent
coal from falling through. Shake with a short
stroke, just enough to remove most of the ashes.
Buckwheat coal gives excellent results when
used with Broken Egg Stove or Nut Coal. Mixed
in equal proportions of Buckwheat and larger sizes
will save many good dollars in a year.
Buckwheat for banking the fire at night not only
reduces your coal bill, but enables you to more
easily regulate the fire by means of the drafts.
Buckwheat Coal is recommended for fall and early winter
use. The coal will permit a low fire—without "going out." You
can keep just enough heat in the radiators to keep off the chill.
We strongly advise putting coal in early. The quality now
is much better than will be shipped when cold weather comes
to stay.

Pilgrim Commandery Makes
Big Hit in Templars'
Parade
Philadelphia, Sept. 10.- —Pilgrim
Commandery of Harrisburg was the
most colorful in all the line of
march in the great parade of the
Knights Templars yesterday. The
knights of this commandery each
carried a different silken banner of
huge size, thirty-five in number, of
all the Allies.
Though the Pennsylvania com
manderies took a place near the
middle of the line, they took first
place in the eyes of the spectators.
In point of numbers, neatness of
equipment, regularity of marching,
excellence of drill, maneuvers, dig
nity of bearing and in the size and
excellence of bands the Pennsylva
nia delegation outshone anything
else in line.
When the mounted knights, nine
in number, at the head of the divi
sion, swung into sight a cheer went
up from the throngs along the line
of march that attested to the full

As the Lu Lu Temple Band, bright
in red and white uniforms swung
grandly down the line of parade,
cheer after cheer almost drowned
out the rounds of applause from the
crowded sidewalks and thorough
fares.
In the Imperial Teteques, of Wil

tracted by the enormous bass drum,
one of the largest in the world, re
quiring a pneumatic-tired carriage
for its transportation, guided by the
drummer and an assistant. Atop of
the drum were mounted electric
lights with which the entire band

WORLD LOOKS TO AMERICA
TO RENEW ECONOMIC TIMES
Re-Establishment of Complete Peace Basis Will Put Labor
and Capital on Their Feet and Readjust the Cost of
Living, President Says in St. Paul Speech
By Associated Press.
St. Paul, Minn., Sept. 10.—Readjust
ment of the cost of living, President
Wilson declared to-night, must await
the re-establishment of a complete
peace basis which would put labor and
and capital on their feet.
In two addresses the President as
serted that the connection between
aceptance of the Peace Treaty and
improving living conditions was a di
rect one, and that the world was
looking to America to take the lead
in restoring the world to a sound
economic basis.
Mr. Wilson spoke in the morning at
a speial session of the JJinnesota Leg
islature and in the evening at a pub
lic meeting at the St. Paul Auditor
ium. During the afternoon he also
addressed a meeting in Minneapolis.
When Mr. Wilson arrived at the St.
Paul Auditorium to-night he was
loudly cheered by nearly 15,000 per
sons, who arose and sang the Star
Spangled Banner.
Mayor L. C. Hodgson, a Republican,
introduced Mr. Wilson as "a great
spiritual leader of American democ
racy" whose power was written "in
the hearts of his people."
No Politics In Trip
Opening his speech, Mr. Wilson
said there were no political consider
ations in his speechmaking trip for
the Treaty. It was an American is
sue, he declared, and he had come out
I to the people rather to "hold counsel"
than to make a fight against anybody.
| Despite the varied national origins
|of the people of America, said the
President, a distinctly American type
had been developed and one of the
distinctions of that type was the be
lief in equality as contrasted with
the class distinctions of other coun
tries.
Adding that here were "a great
many hyphens" left in America, the
President declared a "hyphen" the
"most un-American" trait to be found
in the country.
Because of its mixed derivations,
the President asserted, America was
destined to be the mediator of the
world. It is the only nation, he con
tinued, "that can sympathetially or
ganize the world for peace." Of the
many delegations from foreign lands
who appealed to him for a hearing in
Paris, he said, all were able to point
out that they had relatives in Amer
ica.
President Wilson dwelt at length
to-night on the mixed origin of the
American people.
"It is based upon long experience
that in every part of the world I can
recognize an American the minute I
see him," he said. "And yet that is
not because we are all of one stock.
"A great many millions of our peo
ple carry in their hearts the traditions
of races never bred in America, and
"New Business Octopus/'
Colver Brands Modern
Alleged Food Trusts
Washington, Sept. 10.—Measures
recommended by President Wilson
to curb combinations controlling
food and necessaries Is now before
the House Judiciary Committee,
which yesterday heard further tes
timony from members of the Fed
eral Trade Commission. Amend
ments of the Clayton antitrust law
and the creation of the Federal
Trade Commission as well as a dras
tic Federal "blue sky" law were
urged by Wiliam B. Colver, chair
man of the Trade Commission, and
S. H. Thompson, Jr., another mem
-1 ber of the commission.
Mr. Colver elaborated upon what
he termed was the new octopus in
business, the formidable alleged
food trust of the country. He said
that big business had grown faster
than the laws to control them, un
til to-day there has arisen in this
country a combination of the meat
packers which was most powerful
through the control not only of
meat and other articles of food, but
the control by the same interests of
commodities which competed with
the products handled by the meat
packers. For instance, he said that
the meat packers controlled not
only oleomargarine, but butter.

TELLS~DYSPEPTICS
WHAT TO EAT
Avoid Indigestion, Sour Acid Stomach,
llrurtburn, Gus on Stoiniirh, Etc.
Indigestion and practically all
forms of stomach trouble, say medi
cal authorities, are due nine times
out of ten to an excess ot hydro
chloric acid in the stomach. Chronic
"acid stomach" is exceedingly danger
ous and sufferers should do either
one of two thiuy.s.
Either they can go on a limited and
often disagreeable diet, avoiding
foods that disugree with them, that
irritate the stomach and lead to ex
cess acid secretion or they can eat
as they please in reason and make it
a practice to counteract the effect of
the harmful acid and prevent the for
mation of gas, sourness or premature
fermentation by the use of a little
Uisurated Magnesia at their meals.
There Is probably no better, safer
or more reliable stomach antlacid
than Blsuruted Magnesia and It is
widely used for this purpose. It has
no direct action on the stomach and
is not a dlgestent. liui a teuspoontul
of the powder or a couple ot live grain
tablets taken in a little water with
the food will neutralize the excess
acidity which may be present and
prevent its further formation. This
removes the whole cause of the
trouble and the meal digests natur
ally and healthfully without need ot
pepsin pills or artificial digestents.
Get a few ounces of Uisurated Mag
nesia from any reliable druggist. Ask
tor either powder or tablet. It
never comes as a liquid, milk or
citrate and in the blsurated form is
not a laxaiive. Try this plan and
eat what you want at your next meal
and see If this isn't the best advice
I you ever had on "what to eat." < G. A.
Oorgas.
yet we are all unmistakably and even
in appearance American and nothing
else. And there is only one possible
explanation for that, my fellow citi
zens, and that is that there is in the
practice and in the tradition of this
country a set of principles, which,
however Imperfectly, get into the
conscience of every man who lives in
this country.
Mediators of Mankind
"We are the pre-destined mediators
of mankind. Really then when I hear
gentlemen saying we must keep out of
this thing and take care of ourselves,
I ask where did we come from? Is
there nobody else in the world that
we care for?
"These genetlemen are doing <v
harm which they do not realize. I
want to testify to you here to-night,
that, since it has seemed to be un
\ certain whether we are going to play
this part of leadership in th<> world,
the old intrigues have started up in
the country again.
"That hyphen which looked to us
like a snake, the hyphen between
German and American, has reared its
head again. You hear the hiss of its
purpose, and what is that purpose?
It is to keep America out of the con
cert of nations in order that America
and Germany being out of that con
cert may some time in their mistaken
dream unite to dominate the world,
or at any rate the one to assist the
other in holding the nations of the
world off while its ambitions are re
alized.
"There is no conjecture about this,
my fellow citizens. We know the
former purposes of German intrigue
in this country and they are being re
vived. You cannot change the tem
per and expectations of a people by
five years war, particularly by five
years of war in which they are not
yet conscious of the wrong they did,
'or tl)o wrong way in which they
]did it. *
I "There can be only one intelligible
reason for America's staying out of
this, and that is that she does not
want peace, that she wants war some
time and the advantage which war
will bring to her and 1 want to say
now and here that the men who think
that by that thought they are inter
preting America are making the sort
of mistake upon which it will be use
ful for them to reflect in obscurity for
the rest , of their lives.
"I hear opponents of the League
of Nations say that this does not
guarantee peace. No, nothing guar
antees us against human passion and
error. But I like to put thi3 busi
ness proposition to you—if it increas
es the probability of peace by, let us
say, ten per cent., don't you think it
is worth while? (Yes, from the au
dience, cheers). And in my judgment
It increases it about 99 per cent."
Mexico Rebel Heads
Ask Wilson to Help
Them Restore Order
Washington, Sept. 10.—The chief
tains of the warring fact'ons in
Mexico have addressed an appeal to
President Wilson and through him
to the people of the United States
requesting that this government aid
Mexico :n restoring law and order.
The appeal is directed against the
Carranza government and is signed
by all those opposed to Carranza ex
cept Villa, and it is announced that
he has wired his support of the ap
peal.
The appeal is the result of nego
tiations that have been under way
for some time among the various
elements which have been for the
past several years—back to 1314
resisting the Carranza regime in
different parts of the Mexican ter
ritory. The difficulties of communi
cation have delayed its completion
until the present.
These negotiations have disclosed
a genuine agreement among the dif
ferent parties signing the appeal,
not only the matter of the appeal
itself, but as to many points of pro
cedure later, in the line of putting
aside personal ambitions, at least
for the present, in face of the
urgent needs of unification and re
construction of the country.
Charging President Carranza
with having constituted himself "ir
responsible dictator of Mexico,"
with having by his "illegal and
despotic confiscation of foreign
owned properties and the murder
of many hundreds of foreign citi
zens" brought about imminence of
American intervention; with having
aligned himself first with radicalism
and later with the German cause
against the Allies, and with having
made Mexico' "prey of the most
cruel and brutal tyranny our coun
try has had to endure in all the port
century of its efforts toward free
dom," the appeal proposes a con
ference of all the revolutionary
factions with representatives of the
United States for the purpose ot
formulating a program for "recon
struction and restoration of Mex
ico."

GRIFFITH THRILLS AUDIENCE
"The Mother nnd the Law*' Proves
Genuine Drsnintie Triumph
David Wark Griffith's "The Moth
er and the Law," is said to be in
every sense of the term a genuine
"thriller." Its presentation yester
day caused something of a sensation
at the Victoria Theater.
There are some people who still
remain skeptics so far as motion pic
tures are concerned. Should such a
one take the time to see this Griffith
masterpiece—its tragedy, its pathos,
its comedy, the truly remarkable
beauty of its big scenes —that one
would be converted for all time to
the Griffith standard of cinema art.
Surely the man who has "no use for
moving pictures" is to be pitied. It
is a form of entertainment that is
growing in power and beauty with
almost unbelievable speed. And yet
to David W. Griffith it becomes mere
ly a piece of clay in the hands of a
great sculptor, to be molded and
twisted into exquisite harmonies by
this master artist of the silver sheet.
Retail Dealers Predict
Cut in Clothing Price
Chicago, Sept. 10. Delegates to
the convention of the National As
sociation of Retail Clothiers here
predicted a reduction in the price
of clothing in the near future.
"It's got to come," said Fred
Levy, of Louisville. "Unless lower
prices are on the way and we fel
lows will sing the loudest when the
change comes. Men can't be induced
to part with $75 or SBO for a business
suit. The principal reason for the
present high prices is the cost of
labor.
"There is really not much profit
eering in clothes and what little
there is we intend to stop."
The opening session to-day was
attended by 500 merchants from
every state in the union. The or
ganization tendered its assistance to
Attorney General A. Mitchell Palmer
and the Senate investigating Com
mittee in their fight against the high
cost of living.
