the Infantry troops. These are much
lighter in weight than the old pat
tern of range with which the Guard
was equipped. They are so construct
ed that the fire is built under and in
the ground, instead of in the fire box
of that range, so that in rapid NOV
ing of the troops they can be picked
up and put in the wagons without the
delay required in the other style
range for drawing the fire and cool
ing. These ranges are equipped with
all the necessary cooking utensils.
The Infantry has also been provid-
ed with the surplus kit bag, which
is to contain the spare shoes, stock
ings and underwear of the enlisted
men, with one kit bag for the men of
each squad, one for the sargeants of
each company and one for the cooks
and musicians of each company.
Reauisition is also in for the new
pattern baking chest and the new
pattern condiment chest. which has
been adopted fer issue to the regu-
lar service.

Adjutant General Dill, Friday re-

stating that the War department Of
ficials feel reasonably certain that the
nianeuver appropriation will be made
in time to carry on the scheduled
maneuyers, the coming summer. This
will be welcome news to the National
Guardsmen of The State, as il has
been somewhat problematieal what
would be done, this summer, in view
OF the veto of the army appropriation
bill.
Should the maneuvrs be held in
Maine, instead of around New York.
Bar Harbor is anxious to have them
held there. The State Muster field
i'm this city will not be available for
maneuvers, this year, on account OF
the muster field having been sown 10
oats. The business men of Bar Har-
Dor had evidently heard of the situa-
ton and Adjutant General Dill has
that if the maneuvers are not to be
held around New York some portion
of them be held at Bar Harbor

Dill will give the Maine National
Guard the feull up-to-date equipment.

MORE COWS NEEDED.

During the last thirty-five years the
population of the United States has
doubled, and it is estimated that the
number Of dairy cows has also
doubled-increasing from less than
11,000,800 TO more than 22,00O,00O. In
the face of this increase cows have in
creased in value per head about S6.62
1t is also estimated by statisticians
that the population will again double
in the next thirty-two years, and If
people are to have the same amount
of butter and milk the number of
dairy cows must be again doubled
This means that the central west will
gradually increase in dairying. and If
It continues to supply its percentage
OF meat products we must grow more
stock to the acre. Whether we come
to smaller farms or not. one thing is
sure. we must grow more to-the acre.
The Colorado statesman., 1912-07-27
GROWING LEGUMES.

One important fact In relation to
growing legumes should be remember
ed. While these plants can use free
nitrogen under certain conditions and
store it on their roots, they must nev.
ertheless have other plant food con-
stituents, such as lime, phosphoric
acid and potash. Legumes require "a
liberal amount of these constituents
for various growths so that they may
fulfill the requirements of storing nj
trogen for future use. Where the soil
is deficient in phosphate, lime and po-
tassium, these constituents should be
added in commercial forms. Espe-
cially is this desirable with some of
the more exacting legumes, such as
alfalfa. clovers and vetch. But the
nitrogen in the soil is easily leached
out, plants use it freely, and 1t is apt
to be the first that is lacking. Thin
soils are apt to have enough of the
other elements to grow such legumes
as peanuts, COW peas, soy beans
Hence the supply of nitrogen and or
ganic matter may be supplied cheaply
and quickly by growing these valu-
able crops.

A FLY CATECHISM !

Tho following questions and an
Swers were prepared by the Indiana
state board of health and have been
widely copied. The school board OF
Asheville, N. c., caused them to be
pasted in the spelling books used in
the graded schools OF the city:
Where is the fly born? In manure
and filth.
Where does the fly live? In every
kind of filth.
Is anything too filthy for the fly to
eat? No.
Where does he go when he leaves
the surface closet and the manure pile
and the spittoon? Into the kitchen
and dining room.
What does he do there? He walks
On the bread. fruit and vegetables. He
wipes his feet on the butter and
oathes in the milk.
Does the fly visit the patient sick
with typhoid fever, consumption and
cholera infantum? He does, and he
may call on you next.
Is the fly dangerous? He Is mans
worst pest and more dangerous than
Wild beasts or rattlesnakes.
What disease does the fly carry?
He carries typhoid fever, consumption
and summer complaint. How? On
his wings and hairy feet. What is his
correct name? Typhoid fly.
Did he ever kill any one? He killed
more American soldiers during the
Spanish-American war than did the
bullets Of the Spaniards.
Where are the greatest number of
cases of typhoid fever, consumption
and summer complaint? Where there
are the most flies.
Where are the most flies? Where
there is the most filth.
Why should we kill the fly? Be
cause he may kill us.
When shall we kill the fly? XIII
him before he gets wings Kill him
when he is a maggot in the manure
pile. Kill him while he is in the egg
state
How? Keep the stables dry and
clean and don't allow any manure 10
stay on the premises longer than one
week. Have all other filth and trash
accommodating on your premises remov-
ed or burned at least once a week.
If your neighbor fails to comply
with these rules and allows flies to
breed on his premises to visit you
screen your doors and windows and
keep them out.
The Colorado statesman., 1912-07-27
TO GET RID OF DANDELIoNs.

Dandelions have become such a
pest and their determination seems a
hopeless task. Digging usually does
little good, as the roots go SO deep
they are hard to get, and simply TAX
ing off their heads doesn't kill the
plant. In the past year or so spray
ing has been resorted to with more or
less success, and spraying solution
which has proven quite good is one
made with sulphate of iron (cop-
peras). Make the solution in the pro-
portion of IL pounds of copperas to
gallon of water. Spray the lawn or
infested area every ten days with this
solution. Use a spray that has
strong pressure and use it when the
day is bright and warm. If the first
few applications don't give any re-
suits, make the solution somewhat
stronger. The grass may become
somewhat blackened, but it will do no
permanent damage. However, care
should be taken to keep the spray off
Of cement walks, as it will discolor
them. AS the copperas is not ex-
pensive, costing only or cents a
pound, this method Is not only mex
pensive, but much easier than the old
way of crawling around on your knees
and digging until both arms and back
are worn out.

The desire to own something Is one
of the most valuable assets a per-
son can have with which to begin as
well as to END life. The man who de-
sires to own something will usually
have his desire gratified, as such a
man is never satisfied until it is graft
fed. In the beginning he may not
have anything to offer in exchange for
that he desires to own but his labor
of the hands and brains, but that is
the capital every man inherits In
large or small measure, be he prince
or pauper. Given a willingness to
work and reasonable skill in doing
even the ordinary things thoroughly,
any young man can make his way in
the world; can make good days
wage as he goes along, which with
proper self-denial in his living ex-
penses will net him in few years
enough capital In cash and in reputa-
tion with his neighbors to begin busi-
ness and succeed in it, so that he may
own the things the possession of
which will give him the greatest sat
isfaction.
The sentiment is becoming general
among negroes in all parts of the
country that man must not only
know a great deal but he must own
something to prove that he knows
something. The spendthrift, dressed
up to date, who has nothing behind
him to sustain his expensive living,
does not find the favor now that he
did ten and twenty years ago among
the people whose good opinion he de-
sires, whose social and business influ-
ence he would enjoy. He must have
some reputation for steadiness in
work and for saving something of
what he earns in order to stand well
in his own estimation and that OF his
neighbors. That the desire for the in

Notwithstanding we are living in
the twentieth century and stand on
the threshold of the brightest and
grandest civilization that the world
has ever known, there is crying and
a pressing need of better educated
ministry. There is much need for i'm
provement along this line. We do not
refer to this matter as matter Of
criticism, but as a matter Of SYM
pathy and pressing necessity. 1t is
too late in these bright days of civili-
zation to have SO much ignorance in
the pulpit. There are plenty of high
schools in this country to train young
men for the ministry that they may
intelligently and yet forcibly stand
on their feet and preach the gospel of
truth.-The Baptist Reporter.
