Thrifty Home Gardeners,

There is but one practical solution
of the high cost of living, and that is
to raise your own produce. The home
garden in great measure will do II
and do 1t effectively. 1t will stop the
paying of money to the vegetable
man" and the grower-a big saving.
And those who are so situated that
they can raise their own poultry and
eggs, milk and butter, and a pig or
two for winters meat, with change
now and then from pork to poultry,
may be said to be directly on the line
of independence, with every cause OF
the high cost OF living completely
blocked.-D. d. Lynch, st. Paul
The recent extension of the parcel
post system, making provision for the
direct delivery of farm produce from
the producer to the consumer, is a
long step in the right direction to-
ward reducing the high cost of living,
as 1t will tend to eliminate the great
army of ddlemen, now between the
producer and consumer, each of whom
must have his "bit" added to the final
cost before it reaches the consumer.
But this alone will not reduce the
high cost of living, for it is not at all
likely that the farmer will continue to
sell his produce at the present price,
when he finds. the middlenan re-
moved, but will proportionately raise
the price. So the delivery direct from
the producer to consumer eventually
will prove of greatest benefit to the
farmer.
Perhaps it is only matter of time
when every man Of family who de-
ponds upon his daily wage win be
forced to press into producing service
portion Of his back yard, even
though he may have but a single lot,
as plot for home garden, to reduce
the present cost of living.
And right now is the time to con
slider. this matter if you are going to
do anything in the home gardening
line this year, raising vegetables to
lower your individual cost of living
and: to enable you to have larger
margin Of savings in the bank.
The seed companies will. furnish
you with catalogues and at the hard
ware store you can get the few neces-
sary tools. Then 80 to work You
Will learn by experience, and your
health and your appetite viii improve
while you turn barrenness into beauty
and your backyard desert into an
oasis of productiveness.
And here is hint (which you. will
find valuable If you really want to
save money by means of your home
garden-plant and cultivate not only
those things which you can eat right
out Of the garden during the summer
but also some vegetables that you can

The White House is hallowed in the

Government lIedIeal Serrlce.

With the possibility of "a foreign
caupaigp before our army, what Is
the present condition Of preparedness
OF the army medical service, espec-
tally as compared with its condition at
the outbreak Of the Spanish American
war In 1908? asks the Journal of the
American Medical Association.
The contrast gives cause for graft
hcation. In the last fifteen years the
army has been practically reorgan-
lied. The development Of the general
stan and the training Of experts for
various duties have affected the med
ical department as well as the other
branches of service. The enormous
increase In scientific knowledge OF
disease and It's prevention has been
utilized by the medical officers. Our
army medical corps is7today body
Of trained military sanitarians un-
surpassed ip any county. In exper-
ience, Organization, Equipment and
training, there is no comparison be-
tween the present situation and that
in 1898.
Experience has been gained in the
=
pines, in the military expeditions in
China and Cuba, and in the maneuyer
camps in 1911 and 1918, so that the
army today possesses a corps Of spec
taMsts trained in camp sanitation. For
oyer year military camps have been
maiptained on the Texas border, con-
tanning from ten to twelve thousand
men in a well-nigh perfect state Of
health.
The material equipment of the de-
partment is comparably better than
1t was fifteen years ago The present
system Of field organization was al
most unknown in 1898. The organiza-
ton OF mobile sanitary units, namely,
the ambulance company and the field
hospital, will pfoye great advantage.
While only four field hospitals are
actually in existence, on account Of
congressional parsimony, the medical
department has on hand ample sup
plies for complete system OF field
hospitals for 100000 men. These sup
plies are now in storage, packed for
shipment and ready to be put on
trains or ship-board at a moments
nouce. BY way OF contrast, at the
breaking out of the Spanish-American
war, the war department telegraphed
the governors of the various states
that 1t would be. necessary for each
state to send with its troops sufficient
medical supplies to last for six weeks,
as the government was unable to fur
nish them.
In a word, the medical department
of the army-and the same may be
said Of the nayy-has shared largely
in the general progress which has
been made In the last fifteen years.
The present medical and hospital
corps are as effectually organized,
trained and equipped to fight disease
as is the rest of the army to fight the
enemy. Complete prevention Of dis
ease among large bodies of men under
the unavoidable conditions of military
life in actual warfare is impossible.
The maintenance of sanitary camps
and well equipped and efficient hos
pitals, as well as prevention of all
avoidable diseases among our troops,
can be reasonably expected.

DON'T KIN the Birds.

How many persons remember the
beautiful verses in one OF the old
time school readers on Don't Kill
the Birds?" 1t taught a lesson we'll
worth while, but today ruthless dis
regard for the sentiment those verses
contained is being shown The matter
of slaughtering native birds is serious.
AS Connellsville exchange says in
recent years the preservation and
propagation Of native song birds
have come to be regarded as highly
essential. Special officers have been
appointed to look after their safety
and to bring to justice those who ruth
lessly destroy them. Societies have
been formed, whose only object have
been to prevent the Staying of the
feathered songsters and to add to their
numbers instead of depicting their
ranks.
1t might not, therefore, be untime-
ly. to call to the attention of the
properly constituted officials the
slaughtering of robins, blackbirds,
cat-birds, in fact all Of the old fav-
orites right on the very edge Of the
city limits. The shrubbery along Isa-
bella Road teens with the very best
examples 81 native bird life. but it
will not TEEN long unless something
is done to stop certain depredations
in that vicinity. The killing of wild
birds near Connellsville is not being
done by foreigners, but by thought
less American boys, of between 10
and II years in possession of their
first guns. Residents Of the vicinity
have complained and now threaten
the penalty of the law If it is not
stopped. Such threats should not be
necessary in the case of American
boys. Native pride and a knowledge
of Just what these birds mean to the
community should be all that is nee
essary to influence their actions.
