Fifty years ago today the soldiers OF
both sides in camp in Virginia were I'M
patiently waiting the order to advance.
The novelty 'of their first weeks in the
service had worn off, and inaction. with
only routine work and constant drill to
break its monotony, was telling on their
spirits
The weather was hot-far hotter than
many of the men from the north bad
ever known-the country painted in the
fierce rays of the southern sun, the
streams were low, the roads deep with
powdery red dust, and the drinking water
in camp made the soldier lads think OF
the cool streams at home.
Some of these soldiers, in both the
northern and southern ranks, were mere
boys, and their play days, with glorious
summer hours spent in the ''old swim
ming hole" were still fresh in their
minds.
Then as they munched their bareback
and ate their rusty bacon-for army
rations even thus early in the war were
none too liberal or palatable-they
thought of the cool ''buttery" of the
old farmhouse, the drafts of sweet milk
from the earthenware pans where IL MAO
been set for the cream to rise, and the
acknowledgements taste of the dough-
nuts that mother made, and kept SO
moist and fresh in the big crock pehino
the buttery door.
In short many of the soldier boys In
the southern camps were homeslck OO
years ago today II there was to be no
fighting, they heartily wished the war
over, or themselves out of 1t.
If It had not been for Sunday, with
little break in the routine of the week.
they would have found their lot stu
harder to sustain. :
SUNDAY IN CAMP.
There was a saying in the army that
there is no Sunday in war"
While this was true in times of march
ing and battle, it had not yet become
reality to the lads of the north and the
south lying in their camps in that lovely
Virginia country just south of the Po-
tomac.
Sunday was in a way a day of rest, for
after inspection in the forenoon the men
had nearly all the day to themselves.
Religious services were held In most
camps and were well attended. Inc
trooper who could syear as hard as the
proverbial army in Flanders, when out
on hike in dust or mud, or when as
sisting In the rescue of mired horse or
mule, allowed his mind to turn to CENTER
things on the Sabbath day:
The forms of the church had strong
appeal TO many men who had been re-
ligiously trained, and when the chaplain
set up his rude altar In camp, the men
crowded around him to worship in as
reverent a spirit as they had ever done
back home"
There was something peculiarly
striking about some of these religious
services in camp. The warm summer

The hens TO lay well in cold weather
must have plenty of exercise. II they
are to be confined. give them ueep lit
ter OF straw to scratch in, and place the
grain feed in this straw so they will
scratch. Inactive hens will not lay. 1t
is a good plan on the farm to allow the
chickens the run of all the barn and
stables during the day. They will do
no damage at this time and will secure
a lot of feed that would otherwise go to
waste. In securing it they will be COM
PEELED to exercise, which viii promote
laying. Also, the barn is a dry, warm
place for fowls in winter. and dryness
and warmth are great factors in their
health and productiveness. They can
easily be shut out OF the barn at night.
