Farms for Children.

Perhaps the smallest farms in the
world, each four by eight feet, have
been devised by Mrs. Henry Parsons
for the International Children's School
Farm league, and demonstrated in
New York. Each child becomes owner
of his diminutive farm, in which he
works, grows and h~arvests seven DIFF
ferent kinds of vegetables, and these
are borne by him in triumph to his
family. About each farm is an 18-inch
path, which he keeps in order; under
his instructor it becomes a tiny OBJ
ject lesson in good roads.

WILSON WILL CALL
An EXTRA SESSION
DATE WILL NOT BE LATER THAN
APRIL is, PREsIDENT-ELEcT
ANNOUNCES.
TO REVISE TARIFF SCHEDULE
Brief Statement Says Party's Pledges
Should Be FulflIed-Deelsion
Made Public to AIIay un-
certainty of Business.

New York.-Governor Woodrow
Wilson announced that Immediately
after his Inauguration as president of
the United States he would call an
extraordinary session of congress, to
convene not later than April Is, for
the purpose of revising the tariff.
The pr~esident-elect sailed for Ber-
muda at 2 o'clock this afternoon for a
vacation and will return December
16. To set at rest in the meantime
speculation as to what he would do
with the tariff revision, he issued the
following statement:
Il shall call congress together in
extraordinary session not later than
April Is. l shall do this not only be-
cause l think that the pledges of the
party ought to be redeemed as
promptly as possible, but also because
l know it to be in the interest of
business that all uncertainty as to
what the particular items of revision
of tariff should be removed as soon
as possible"
Expected to Delay Announcement.
The governor did not intend to ex-
press himself about an extra session
SO soon after his election. Although
he has favored the idea Of calling an
extra session, because the present ar
rangement would not bring the new
congress into session until thirteen
months after its election, he had ex-
pected to spend more time in ascer-
tanning public opinion. With the time
to be consumed in discussion, the
governor felt that IF an extra session
were not called, the benefits of tariff
revision would be postponed for prac-
tically two years. Throughout the
campaign he reiterated that he de-
sired an immediate revision of the
tariff, and that Democratic leaders
knew perfectly well how to proceed
about it.
The governor was impressed by the
argument also that an early announce
ment as to an extra session, Demo-
cratic leaders in congress could begin
to take counsel at an early date, so
that much of the preliminary detail
could be worked out before congress
convened, on April Is.
Though the president-elect means
to rest while in Bermuda, he really
expects to give a good deal of time to
quiet thought about the problems that
face him. He will sketch his annual
message to the New Jersey legisla-
ture, and will do some extensive read
ing on data on the tariff, monopolies,
banking and currency reforms, and
other issues.

ARMY TO PREPARE
MILITIA FOR WAR
PLANS FORMED FOR ORGANIZE.
TON OF STATE GUARD INTO
SEPARATE DIVISIONS.
HEADQUARTERS ARE CHOSEN
Kansas City Is Named Head of Four.
te.nth District, Including Troops
Of Five states-illinois and
Indiana in Division.

Neutrality-suspicious. of the most I'M
portant moves in recent years to pre-.
pare the national militia for use in
time of war, is proposed in letters ad,
dressed by acting Secretary Oliver to
all governors, inviting their co-opera-
ion in the val college plans for the
organization of the militia into twelve
tactical divisions.
The letters point out that if the
militia is to be used as a field force
effectively in war times, il can be
done effectively by this system of di.
visions, and to insure the proper
working of the plan, all of the details
should be worked out in tine of
peace.
In the outline of the divisions no
place is given to separate companies
Of infantry, which it is said should
be absorbed into regiments or other
larger organizations.
To Combine Divisions.
Field armies would be formed by
the group of two or more divisions OF
the militia, or by combining one Of
two divisions of militia with one Of
regular troops.
Regular organizations would form
the fourth brigade of any division as
signed to a field army. for the reason
that the organized militia is localized
while the regular army must go any
where upon call.
Some money will be available for
the assistance of the state authorities.
The war department also proposes
to detail inspector-instructors to assist
state officials, and war material for
the militia will be distributed and
stored in suitable depots to be at hand
locally when mobilization is ordered.
First Four to Be Regulars.
Gen. Oliver plans to have the first
four of the sixteen tactical divisions,
into which 1t is proposed to organize
the entire military strength of the
nation, composed entirely of regular
troops, with the District of Columbia
militia assigned to duty as regulars.
The remaining divisions would be
composed of the state militia organ
izations of from one to eight states,
among them being:
Twelfth Headquarters, Chicago:
Illinois, Indiana.
Observation-Disclosures Kansas
(IfU. MJCCNI+ri Enrrn- AvnI.oI-
Wyoming, Colorado.
Under this comprehensive scheme
every militia organization in the
United States is definitely placed in
the station it would occupy in mobil-
ization of the army for war purposes.
