REASON FOR THE MUSTACHE
In Evidence as Having Been Worn by
British Soldiers as Measure Of
Military Necessity.

The correspondent who writes to q
contemporary suggesting that the
British war Office authorities should
insist on soldiers being clean shaven
instead of ordering them to wear mus
taches, might have alleged Teutonic
influence In the adoption Of the mus
tache of the British army. The idea
was first borrowed from a batch Of
Austrian officers quartered with some
of Jul troops on the South coast dur.
ing the Waterloo campaign. 1t was
then taken up by the guards. who very
much resented any attempt on the
part Of mere line regiments to follow
the new fashion. The winter cam.
paign in the Crimea led our men to
grow full boards for warmth, and
these, modified into flowing whiskers

The Underwood Gardens
On THE Outskirts Of Hutchinson
nmmm nnmuuum

One crop after another, maximum production,
scientific methods, and intelligent management
throughout have resulted in an almost incredi-
b1e maybe unprecedented showing of what may
be done on ten acres of fertile land-of Kansas
land. 1t is an old saying that what has been done
may be duplicated Possibly, by some. There
doubtless others who are capable of making
successes on small areas intensively cultivated
and intelligently handled, but 1 suspect they
are few. Mr.. Underwoods experience does
not indicate the unlimited opportunities in Kan
sas for similar undertakings, for conditions of
soil and climate are unsurpassed and Kansas
has thousands of acres of as rich soil, and
located advantageousy Our transportation
facilities are excellent, and markets near
at hand. In fact, as l have stated, understood
Mr.. Underwood to say that most if not prac-
tically all of his produce is sold in Hutchinson.
Mr.. Underwood is certainly accomplishing
something in the world; he is doing things
worth while. He is helping feed the multi
tudes, and he is doing it in manner to merit
the p1audits of all thinking people. Why are
not such achievements as Mr.. Underwoods
sought out and proclaimed? Nothing could be
more worthy of publicity productive
of lasting good. He is producer of the necessi-
ties of life and the returns him yielded up
from the soil and out of the air-a wholly new
wealth, and wealth to get which no one has

once, and the beds pre-
pared for other crops.
Mr.. Underwood's land,
bordering the classic Cow
Greek, is naturally rich,
and the crops he raises
under most intensive
methods take heavy toll
in fertility. Naturally he
fertilizes, mostly however
with manure, REINFORCED
to some extent with COM
mercial fertilizers. For
his greenhouse beds he
uses liquid manure that

in those watts, draws off the
brine and uses that for fertil-
izer. Some idea of the yields
may be had from the returns
of cabbage, II tons from an
acre, and when l was there
he was setting out thousands,
maybe millions, of celery
plants. The outdoor gardens
are irrigated by the overhead
sPrinkling system, the water
falling In a spray.
Mr.. Underwood carries on
his work in a most scientific
manner. That is of course a
necessity. He is an expert
at plant breeding, and I had
the pleasure of seeing some
of his experimental beds of

oring to produce maximum

WASHINGTON, ID. c., The
government faces the job of
throwing more light on Alaskan
waters. Chains of lighthouses
must be built along the $4,000
miles of Alaska's coast to make
navigation safer or the fullest de-
velopment of our "far northi'

On Sept. 20, 1914, the u. s.

Agattu island in the WESTERN

During the summer season last
year two other vessels struck
submerged pinnacles. Others
escaped almost by a miracle,
some scraping pinnacle rocks.
These peculiar rocks rise hum
dreds of feet from an otherwise
level bottom. They are as sharp
as needles, and very hard ia
locate.
The ships were worth $780,

In recent years there have
