FRENCH FARMING METHODS SLOW, SOLDIER FINDS "The French peasants are afraid to eat blackberries ; they think they are poison. But believe me, we soldier boys know they aren't poison," wrote Private Alpheus Orvllle DeLong, formerly of New Castle, and now in France, in a letter to Miss Laura Sullivan of Creensfork. "I had blackberry Btalns all over my face yesterday." he added. "It took 34 days for your letter to reach me. I got 19 letters and one postal card, but I had begun to think I never would get any more mall. "You spoke about threshing in your letter. You should see how the peasants do their threshing here. They hitch three horses to three tongues which join at the ground. There is a rod about 15 feet in length, which runs a machine resembling a large coffee mill. It works like an electric fan. The grain and straw .and waste all come out together. They remove the straw with pitchforks and then rake up the grain and waste into a pile. They have a fan which blows tb waste from the grain. It takes them about a week to do as much as the Americans do in an hour. "Instead of having fences as we do, they have earth banked up about 3 to 4 feet high between their small farms. Most of the banks are covered with blackberry bushes. They think they are poison because they did not plant them. "The majority of the people here still wear wooden shoes. Some of them are so large I do not see how they manage to carry them around. I expect to get a pair and bring them back to the States with me. "The house in which we are located

was a mansion In its time. It was built in the year 1779. It is in extra good condition at present. All the buildings are made of either cement or stone. "The other day while on pass I saw a cathedral which was built in 1150." RollofHqnor

HAVE BEEN LUCKY THIS FAR, WRITES PETER DOHERTY

' "I have ben very fortunate so far. A few pieces from an aircraft gun dropped rather close to me the other day. but I do not mind that so long as it does not upset my mess-kit and spill my chow," said Private Peter Doherty in a letter from France to his sister, Miss Kate Doherty of Centerville. "This leaves me O. K." he continued. "You asked me to describe the country. When I came I thought it was rather level, but since then I have changed my mind considerably. Some parts of France are level, but the

One can be in a valley and look any direction and see nothing but mountains covered with pine trees. These trees generally look to be all of the same height, which makes a' very pretty scene. "The buildings are all made' of rocks with tile roofing. Most of the poorer classes wear wooden shoes, but in the larger cities,

When the kidneys are weak, inactive or slupgish. when one feels tired out and miserable, lacks energy and ambition. Foley Kidney Pills are tonic and strengthening. Wm. H.

You can't afford a new house, but you could if it were burned. You can't afford a new coat, but you could if it were worn out. You can't afford a Liberty bond, but you would lose your child and your wife and your home and your business and your coat if the kaiser won this war, which is precisely what would happen if every one refused to make a little sacrifice. And the kaiser wouldn't give it back with four and a quarter per cent interest, either. WHOM ARE YOU FOR
