RECRUITS FROM THE COUNTRY.

from tho Cities.

They Make Better Soldiers Than Those
from tho Cities.
Within q year past the recruiting flag
has been hung out il many of our New
England towns and villages by officers
of the regular army detailed for the
purpos. of gathering volunteers to I'll
up the ranks of Uncle Sans forty regi-
ments of infantry, cavalry and artil-
lery. Once recruiting stations were
maintained only in big cities like New
York and Boston. but the material Sc
cured there was not of the best Secre.
tary Proctor had an idea that the coun-
try youth were better qualified, moral
ly, mentally and physically, for a SOL
dier's life than the drcgs of our floating
urban population. and under his direc-
ton recruiting parties, each headed by
commissioned officer. were sent into
rural New England, New York and
some portions of the west. The expert
ment is said 20 be working admirably
SO far as the welfare of the army is con-
cerned. though the officers do not enjoy
the necessity Of moving from one town
TO another, drumming up recruits as a
commercial traveller drums up trade.
The new system of enlis. me Mt and the
various minor reforms which Secretary
Proctor was instrumental in introduce
ing during his term of service have had
a married and instantan eous effect upon
the character OF the army. The SOL
diers are happier and more contented.
and desertions are fewer than they have
been for many years
