Several Richmond women have received these letters and have reported them to Superintendent of Malls Wilson. He has advised them to disregard the letters. "It Is an unreliable way of raising money for any purpose and I don't believe It wise for any one to send money through such an agency," he warns. One of the letters presented to Wilson Is asking for oontrtbutlrfW of 24 cents from each recipient of a letter to be used to purchase anaesthesia for Allied hospitals.

Potatoe rows for example, should be 2 or 3 fret apart. The potatoes do not need this amount of space during early growth; so early lettuce and early radishes are planted 14 feet from each pntnto row. When the lettuce and radishes are used these rows remain unoccupied the remainder of the season, leaving the desired space for potato plants. You may sow early radishes with carrots or with beets. The radishrs may be used for the table before the carrots or beets develop to sufficient size that will require all the space between plants. A plan for a small back-yard garden will follow later. Owing to the number' requesting garden plans, It was found inadvisable to prepare the map to send to each person. The map may be clipped and saved for future references and will therefore serve the purpose o the Individual map. .

ENDLESS VARIETY OFFERED VISITOR TO COLORADO

Until Colorado was "discovered" as the Ideal vacation-land, thousands of Americans went abroad every year in search of new thrills. Now they go to Colorado and get more variety of scenery and pleasure in a single day than they formerly diet in a week. An almost endless procession of trips, Jaunts, out-of-door excursions and amusements are to be had daily at practically little or no extra cost. Just to mention a few of the more noted places of Interest is sufficient to convey some idea of the wonders of this fairy-land: Rocky Mountain National Park (Estes); Pikes Peak Region; the Garden of the Gods; Colorado Springs and lovely Denver, with their wonderful systems of magnificent mountain parks. It is surprising how little it costs to see all these wonderful sights, to say nothing of the myriad of other scenic attractions afforded by a trip to Colorado. Without doubt, a Colorado vacation is the most economical and beneficial you can possibly make. Write for our special illustrated literature, showing the latest views of the wonders of Colorado, and giving you all the details about the trip, where to go, what to Bee and Just how little you need to pay. We will gladly help you plan your vacation. Make sure you visit Colorado this year, and be also sure you go by the Rock Island Lines.

is as well educated as any public man in Germany today. He is one of the most forceful orators there, and impresses every one he meets with his masterful executive ability. He is practically the dictator of the policies and ideas of the "Vorwarts." Many of the leading editorials in this newspaper are written by him. He has his office on the fourth floor of a factory building, together with, other of his Socialist colleagues, and because his advice and help are sought by so many people he is one of the most difficult men in Germany to see. The chief Socialist centers in Germany are Berlin, Munich, Essen, Leipsic and Stuttgart. The Berlin Socialists are not as radical as those in Bavaria and in the Rhine industrial section. For instance, last fall when food became so scarce that many people began to fear there would not be

enough for the country to hold out, the Munich Socialists wrote to the Chancellor suggesting that all food in Germany, even that in possession of private families, be confiscated. The poor know that people with money have been able to buy food in large quantities both inside and outside of Germany and store it for the "siege." The people know, also, that those who live on big estates and farms keep back all the food they need for themselves and only sell what they have to. So the Munich Socialists recommended to the government that food be taken away from all persons in Germany. A further proposal was that the government organize soup kitchens and restaurants throughout Germany and compel every one, high and low', rich and poor, to eat the same kind of food in government cafes. This was bitterly opposed, of course, by every one in Germany who had food or who

could live at hotels. The Chancellor paid no heed to this .proposal from Munich, but if this year's harvest should be as bad as that of last year the government may . be compelled to accept the Munich plan after all. - - Socialists Are Elected- . During the last year there have been elections held in Germany for seats in the Reichstag to fill those vacated by death, illness or the retirement of members because 'of age.. When the election was held In Potsdam, the Kaiser's home, a Socialist was elected to take the place of Dr. . Karf Liebknecht, who was sentenced to two years' Imprisonment Socialists also carried elections in Cologne and In Essen, where the great Krupp munition factories are located. The government has been watching this advance -in socialism -very carefully. It has tried to keep abreast of the times by establishing state socialIsm In Germany during the war. The present method of controlling and distributing food is purely socialistic. At present the "Z. E. G ." which is the official bureau for purchasing and controlling the sale of food, is absolutely socialistic in its nature. No German firm and no private citizens can buy food wholesale or retail In any neutral country s In Europe and bring it into Germany without having the supply confiscated by this organization. The result is that no German, firm today buys food in neutral countries. Everything available in Holland, Denmark, Norway, Sweden, Switzerland or Hungary, is purchased by an agent of the "Z. E. G." and shipped into Germany in freight cars owned by this organization. Travellers in neutral European countries will see on the railway sidings white freight cars with the following sign in big black letters: "Zentral EInkaufgesellschaft Deutschland" the so-called "Z. E. G." Before this bureau was organized German merchants had been going to these countries and bidding against each other for the available food. The result was that prices became almost prohibitive. Now the government sends one man to buy the supplies and offers a certain fixed price. This same organization controls the sale of all food within Germany. A Bavarian wholesale grover,- for Instance,-cannot send food to Berlin or

to any city outside of Bavaria unless he sells It to the Z. B. G." "By making the penalty so high in some cases it amounts to Imprisonment few people try to get around these government restrictions. Socialist Schemes Succeed. This is one of the waya by which state socialism has been established in Germany during hostilities: Because the government was successful In the food department similar bureaus were organized to care for other common needs. A government department to buy, sell and. conserve all edible fats was organized. Another bureau to control the oil market and another to purchase old clothes and still another to haver charge of wool and cotton were founded. , On the whole these socialistic schemes have been so successful that many Socialists and officials are looking forward to the period after the war when these ideas can be extended. It has been suggested already that the government take over what remains of the German steamship companies and establish a government monopoly in merchant ships. It has been suggested that the government Import all raw materials and export all manufactured articles. It has been suggested that the government bring the soldiers back from the front In companies and in regiments and run the factories like the army has been run. - But while the government may desire to do this, the voters will probably have something else to say. The Socialists are the reformers of Germany, and inasmuch as they have been able to make such progress during the war, when they havev been prevented from doing so many things they planned, it is almost certain when peace comes the Socialists will play the leading role in reorganization. The growth of the Socialists has by no means been in vain. If they succeed In accomplishing the reforms which they expect, there will be a universal peace party In Germany In the future to take the place of the universal war party of the past. The Social

ists on principle are against war, and ' the people are eo weary of this war that they will not look forward to future wars with any degree of hopeful-' nesa. During the past two years the radical Socialists have been fighting hard for recognition, but because the gov-, ernment has been against them and because the army has hated them they : have been unable to carry out many of ' their plans. They can be aided, however, by the United States of America';

and her allies u the present military leaders are defeated and discredited. As long as the army can say to the people: "We defended the country. We kept the enemy out of our country. We fought a successful war," a great many Germans will be misled and the reform movement In Germany after the war will not be successful as It otherwise will be. .

NERVOUS SPELLS And Combination of Troubles Relieved by a Combination of Medicines. A quotation from one recent letter: "I have been taking Hood's Sarsaparilla and Peptlron Pills as a course of medicine and find this combination has worked like a charm. They told me I had neuralgia,' and certainly I was in a very low and discouraging state of health. I suffered extremely with nervousness and bad neuralgia pains so I could not sleep nights. ' - "Those nervous spells were awful! "I beard about taking Hood's Sarsapa rilla and Peptlron Pills one before meals, the other after the suggestion struck me favorably so that I have taken the medicines carefully and faithfully with most pleasing results. "It Is a long time now since I have had one of those severe nervous spellfc I can do a good day's housework, cO work in my garden and walk a mile." Mrs. Fred J. Weekley, Bagdad, Fla. Tour druggist will be pleased to supply you with these good medicines. Adv.

The Automobile Made to Last

The Reasons "Why" Are Many

A car made right will give service not for a year, but many years. The Saxon "Six" is a six cylinder car, has a Continental motor, Timken bearings and axles, Stromberg Carburetor, Wagner starter and lighting system, full cantilever springs and many other high priced features only found on cars that sell at a much higher price than the Saxon.

Every Saxon "Six" owner is a booster for the Saxon and what speaks better for a car than a satisfied owner. If you are in the market for an automobile you can not afford to buy a car which will not give you service and which will cause you a great amount of worry and expense. An investigation into the merits of the Saxon will at once convince you the reasons of the Saxon's superiority.

The Brunswick Phonograph t Plays All Records The Brunswick Phonograph, manufactured by The Brunswick-Balke-Collender Co., master cabinet makers of America, combines every genuine advance in musical value with all the mechanical improvements of permanent worth, and combines in one splendid - instrument the means of faithful reproduction of every medium of musical expression given by art to the human race. The problems of faithful sound-reproduction and flexible tone control have been solved with such finality that in its performance the instrument removes itself from the consciousness of the hearer, leaving only the sense of musical reality, which could otherwise be enjoyed only by the actual physical presence of the artist. With the Brunswick you can enjoy the world's best music, because the Brunswick plays all records. The adaptability of the Brunswick to all records is one of its special features, another notable feature is: The Brunswick Super Motor. This exceptionally powerful double-spring model was developed by a European expert. The bearing parts can be exposed to inspection and oiling without the use of a single tool or the removal of a single part or screw. This is achieved by the Brunswick method of mounting these motors. They can easily be lifted from the bar on which they revolve by simply removing the turntable. No . other phonograph in the world is, we believe, so readily accessible as this. Although of superlative quality the Brunswick is priced exceptionally low from $70.00- to $175,00. Our liberal sales plan permits everyone to own a Brunswick Phonograph. Order yours now and bring to your home the joy of listening to the world's famous artists, orchestras and bands.
