Importance of America's Future Naval Program
WASHINGTON. Undo Sam's future nnvnl program Is beginning to ussunie
greater Importance than ever because of the trend of events In the
Pacific. Japan has gained a dominating position In the Orient and by virtue
of her exploitation of China la des
tined to become n power of such pro
portions and resources that she will
bo able at any time to challenge the
control of the Pacific.
Japan Is building a great navy as
rapidly as her resources permit. At
present her naval strength Is esti
mated tit less than half that of the
United States, but she Is specializing
in tho construction of fast battle cruis
ers, which many naval authorities be
lieve will be tho determining factors In
future nnvnl warfare. Tho Japanese naval program now under way will
provide 73 cruisers of all classes, conipored with 47 cruisers of ull classes In
the American navy.
With the Philippines unfortified at Japan's door, with the Hawaiian
Islands Insufllclcntly fortified In tho middle of the Pacific and containing a
preponderant Japanese population, and with Japan ncqulrlng tho Germnn nrchl
pelngocs In between, many statesmen are of tho opinion that tho United States
should not neglect to mnlntaln n grentor naval strength than Japan's in all
types of craft as Insurance ngalnst trouble In tho Pacific.
Of course such views are not entertained by those who believe that tho
League of Nations Is going to banish war forever.
It is noteworthy, however, that President Wilson deemed It Important to
send Admiral Rodman to the Pacific with an American fleet stronger in many
respects thnn Japan's present available licet.
Naval officials estimate that most of tho ships authorized in the 1010 pro
gram will have been completed by netft year and nil of them by the summer
of 1021. This will give the United Stntcs 41 first-class dreadnnughts, 21 bat
tleships of tho second class, six battle cruisers, ten scout cruisers, 400 destroy
ers, and 131 submarines.
North Carolina Poultry Club Member

(Prepared by tho United Btntca Depart

A not return of $2 a hen over a four

, ord of a North Carolina poultry club
; member who, about tho mldtllo of Jan

nervous system becomes deranged. Digestion
.utters. The blood Is impoverished. Health
and strength are undermined. The victim ot
.acid-stomach, although he may not know
the cause of his ailments, feels his hope,
courage, ambition and energy slipping. And
truly life Is dark not worth much to the
man or woman who has acid-stomach!
Get rid ot It! Don't let acid-stomach nold
you back, wreck your health, make your
days miserable, make you a victim of the
"blues" and gloomy thoughts! There Is a
marvelous modern remedy called KATON1C

Will "Gob" Also Be Put in Davy Jones' Locker?
OFFICIAL Washington Is smiling over the episode of "Josephus and the
Gob." Which Is to sny thnt out In San Francisco Secretary of the Navy
Daniels fell afoul o the word "gob." "It is a short, ugly word, and I don't
like It," said tho secretary. "It's not
worthy of the men of our splendid
fleet," and thereupon the honorable
secretary consigned gob to the same
fate which has already befallen star
board, port, rum, whisky, grog and
dress uniforms.
But'out at tho Great Lakes naval
training station near Chicago tho gobs
apparently don't agree with Josephus.
i From the commandant to the newest
gob they agree that the nnvy, far from
I fllcHIlncr "r.nli" rnrrnnlo If .t'lfli nfCnrt-
tlon, respect, love, worship, veneration, delight nnd some other minor emotions,
none of which are in the least like those felt by Mr. Daniels. Anywny, hero
Is the reply that comes from Chicago which is tho" cause of Washington's
smiles:
"This 'gob is not a pretty word," tho secretary said.
"It Is not only too absurd, but doesn't sound well-bred
And so, to mo, It has occurred to knock it in tho head."
"Aho-ee there," arose a cry from out a thousand throats.
"Avast, belay, likewise stnnd by, nnd man tho second boats;
At last this here Josephus guy has got tho navy goats."
"ne changed our rum to liquids light" they checked some bitter sobs
"He turned the 'starboard' Into 'right' nnd still we held our jobs;
But now, by gosh, we quit wo fight stand fast, there WE ARB GOBS."

GOOD SCALY LEG TREATMENT
To Understand Scenery Now Enjoyed Emotionally
THIS Is tho dny of emotional enjoyment of nntlonal park scenery. Tomorrow
Is to be the day of appreciative enjoyment of national park scenery. In
other words, various factors In tho national movement have united In a
campaign of education of tho people
so that they may double their enjoy
ment by having an understanding of
the scenery they now enjoy only emo
tionally. A work of this scope Is a large
undertaking. Nevertheless, this fact
helps to lessen the undertaking. The
natlonnl parks of America are not
onjy the subllmest areas of natural
beauty easily accessible, but are also
tho completcst expression of tho his
tory of the earth In Its mnking. More
over nature has spread her records so that anybody with understanding may
read; they are accessible to all.
When tho day of the understanding of scenery comes and the American
tourist views with real appreciation tho stream-made Grand Canyon abyss, the
giant crater of a vanished volcano that holds Crater lake, the Yosemlte valley,
glacier-dug; tho nnked granite core of the Rockies in Rocky mountain, nnd the
old, old ico-enrved shales of ninny-colored Glacier, his enjoyment will be
greater In proportion to his knowledge. For no man can take out from
nature's beuuty more than ho puts In which is to say that wo enjoy according
to our experience and capacity.
Dip Affected Parts In Crude Oil or
Kerosene One Submersion Is
Usually Sufficient.
Scaly leg Is caused by a small mite
which burrows underneath the scales
of tho legs, where It feeds and lays
Its minute eggs. The legs bocomo st
sore at times thnt fowls are unable to
neratch for food or set on tho roost.
Tho treatment consists of dipping
the logs in crude oil. If not conven
ient pure kerosene may bo used. Dip
early enough so that the oil will drj
before tho fowls go on tho roost, and
be careful that tho oil does not get
on tho fenthers. One treatment is
usually sufficient, but if tho old scales
have not peeled off after 30 days li
should be repented.
LAYERS IN GOOD CONDITION
Eggs Can Be Produced in Fail and
Early Winter as Easy as Spring
if Hens Get Feed.
If tho hens are In good condition the
poultry keeper can get eggs just as
well In the fall and early winter ns In
spring, If they are fed exactly 12 hours
apart every day In tho year, and have
ample time to eat tho feed before go
ing to roost. Professor Rico has the
results of many practical tests made
at Comejl and elsewhere to provo this
statement.
