B. F. Kelsay, federal food adminis-
trator for Denton county, has receiv-
ed notice that the recent order that
hay herefater must be sold by weight
instead of by the bale is to be strictly
enforced. The notice from District
Food Administrator G. C. Gumm is as
follows:
“1 wish to call your attention to the
fact that the rule promulgated regard-
ing the sale of hay by weight is issue I
direct from the Washington office and
we are determined if possib'e to see to
its enforcement. Selling by the bale
instead of by weight opens up a won-
derful opportunity for profiteering,
which, in itself is a violation of the
rules of the food administration. It is
just as easy for a dealer to. weigh a
bale of hay as it is for a dealer to
weigh ten cents worth of sugar. The
same principle applies."

Although a. few of the restrictions
on the consumption of certain foods
have been jinodifmd, yet there Is the
greatest necessity of conserving ali the
Food possible, according to the naUon-
al food administration. The following
joint resolution af the food controllers
of the United States, France, Italy and
Great Britain has been announced.
“Hesolved. fliat while the increased
ders it possibibe to relax some of the
peculiar hardship upon our peoples, yet
it is absolutely necessary that rigid
eeofiomy and elimination of waste Ik
the consumption and handling of all
foodstuffs as well increased pro-
duction should be maintained through-
out the European allied countries and
North America.
' “It is on y by such economy and
elimination of waste that the trans-
portation of the necessary men and sup
p.ies from North America to the Euro-
pean front can be accomplished, and
(hat stocks of foodstuffs can be built,
up in North America as an insurance
against the ever-present danger of har-
vest failure, and the possible necessity
of large and emergency drafts to
Europe.
“We cannot administer the food pro-
gram on the basis of orfe’s war. We
must prepare for its long continuance
if we are to insure absolute victory."

Federal Reserve. District made public
today. *
Outside of changes in agricultural
conditions, the general business sit-

readjustments In all lines of business,
which has prevaile 1 for manv months
past, are , becoming more noticeable
every day. the volume of trade trans-
acted at the present time being teas
than It wa§ a year ago. Placing of large
government contracts In the district
have stimulated business, however.
The acreage planted in eotton in the
district Is so extensive th»4 icporls re-
ceived as to the condition of *he crop
are quite at variahce. in Texas the crop
In the North. East and fem'ral portions
is good to excellent; in the Northwes-
tern and Western portions and in the
Panhandle the erdp is only fair. In
south and southwest Texas the crop is
poor and in the- San Antonio commu-
nity is, in fact an entire failure .
Tie corn crop over the state for the
most part is in good condition, hut
is beginning to need rain badly and in
some sections is seriously hurt.
The threshing season is now under
way and the sma'l grain crop is Dim-
ing out satisfactorily except in north-
west Texas where the crop is a prac-
tical failure.
Peaches are moving in eastern Tuxas
and are of excellent quality and grow-
ers may be said to have had a satis-
factory season
The hanklmr situation is very active.
There is no decrease in the demaml for
funds.
Increase demands for labor are noted.
Only scattered rains have fallen in
the cattle country and are not suffi-
cient to help conditions to any great
oxt- nt. The outlook in the cattle in-
dustry in New. Mexico and Texas is
extreme'v unfavorable. Heavy losses
are resulting and a general degression
of business is noted.

Look at the tongue. Mother 1 If coat-

heartily, full of cold or has sore throat
or any other children's ailment, give a
teaspoonful of “California Syrup of

perfectly harmless, and in a few hours

AUSTIN, Aug. 6—All of the colleges
and universities of "Texas have Join“d
in a movement to carry out to the ful-
lest possible extent the p'ans of the
War Department for Hie enlistment of
young m< n of the ages of 18 to 21 in
the Students’ Army Training Corps. Ac-
cording to advices received from Presi-
dent R. E. Vinson of the Lnive/stty,
State Director for the War Department
of this work, who is now in Washlns-
ton. the present quota of Texas young
men for student enlistments Is 2.449. It
is anticipated that when the x.iung
men of Texas are made acquainted
with the plan of the War Department
for giving them vocational and other
training in the colleges and universi-
ties of the State, in order to better fit
them for active military service when
they shall have reached the draft age,
the attendance at these institutions
during the coming regular sessions will
be far above the quota announced.
The who’e State is to be apportioned
into districts for the purpose <>f con-'
ducting the proposed campaign for en-
listments in the Students’ Army Train-
ing Corps. Each educatldhal institution
which is to give military training will
take an active part in conducting the

The union services of five Denton
First Methodist Churclt Sunlay was
very successful in the opinion of those
in charge and auspiciously opened the
series of union services to be held dur-
ing August., The crowd was large and
over-flowed’ the lavn on which the
service was held.
Rev. Robert Gibbs Mood of the First
.Methodist Church preached the ser-
mon, taking as his subject, "Sent.*
taking as his text John IX.IV. "I must
work the works of him that sent me
white it is day, the night enmoth whetf
no man can work.” He said In oart as
foiows:
“Some years ago the Rev. T. DeWitt
Ta.madge delivered a lecture the open-
ing sehfence of which was. ’Evolu-
tionists tell us where we came from,
the theologians tell us where we are
going to but the great fact that con-
cerns us is that we are here.” It is a

.... . . ... the orjgin Of the human “ace wdlh-
oul any violence to my faith in God
or His word. Where I am going to is a
mucJi important question and yet it
becomes secondary when 1 remember
that the “hereafter is simply the af-
ter here.” My future depends > n my
life here and now. So that the great
fact with which we are concern :d is
that we are here.’
“That being so the next question
which presents itself to every th vught-
fui person is. 'Since I am here, what
am 1 here for?’’ Am I hear for any-
thing? Did God have any plan or pur-
pose or mission in my life. God never
made a single life no matter how num-
bie, how circumscribed, but that he
had a definite plan and purpose in that
life. Dr. Theodore Cyler, the great
Presbyterian preacher of N*w York
preached some years ago a sermon en-
titled, 'Every man's life a plan of
God.’ And that is true and this excep-
tion of, that It is a part of God's plan,
exats and dignifies and glorifPs life
and keeps it from becoming stale and
common place.
“And so there ought to be Vie feel-
ing in every life which was «r» the life
of Jesus, the feeling that we ire SENT,
knd we are God sent men and women
in the truest sense of that word.
“An l not Gply are we sent, hut are
under ob'igation to carry out the pur-
pose for which wo are sent. ‘I must
work the works of Him that sent me.'
Not we may if we choose. Christ felt
that he had- no option in the matter
and if we are true followeis of His
we have no option in the mitter eith-
er. We must work out the divine pur-
pose in our lives. Every blessing, and
every endowment and opportunity has
its corresponding obligation.
“Not only are we sent and are under
obligation to eiirry out the purpose for
which wa. are sent, but the tex! also
teaches usp that we ouctit to improve
every opportunity. I must work—while
it is day." How fast the years «Hn by
and how soon the end comes! Seme
of the Saddest thought that will come
♦o us will h« the thought of oppor-
tunities neglected and of r'tances that
we let slip. I saw a striking adver-
tisement some time ago—LOST—yes-
terday somewhere ffetvveen sunrise an I
and sunset, two golden hours, each set
with slxtv diamond minutes. No re-
ward is offered because they are lost
f c reveis
“Every period of life, childhood,
vouth, middle age and old age brings
its pecu’iar opportunities which were
never ours before and will never bte
ours again.
"And again, the text teaches us Inat
soon, at very best, our opportunities
for service will be gone—"The night
cometh when no man can wo-k." Be-
fore this year passes your life may
come to and end. A young man just
entering upon life was taken sick and
lingered some weeks. His fKcnds and
loved ones were inconstant attendance
upon him trying to make his lasl days
as free from pain and care as possi-
ble. Just a few days before he died
the -watchers beside his bed noticed
an anxious look pass over his face and
asked him, “Are you afraid to die?”
With a wan smile he rep'led. “No, I am
not afraid to die. 1 know that Jesus
saves me ;
