 The army of the United States ill continental United States totals only about 45,000. naen.
 The military systems of tho South American nations mentioned does not depend upon voluntary enlistments They have what might be term d modified militarism. In Argentine the the national militin is now ccmpu1- sdry for all citizens from thc goth to tlle 45th years; in Brazil it's fru.n' the 21st to the 4oth year; in Chii it's from tho 18th to the 45th year. There fore, in addition to tho 96,73 men comprising the A. B. c. standing army" they have q large volume oi trained reserves.
 If the Unitsd States were situated alongside these nations it would be compelled to have . larger standing arIy if not adopt modified militarism itself. And it is rather disconcert- ing to think that our great nation is depending as much money on it's army and navy as the biggest European na- tions and having fewer soldiers to show for it than the A. B. C's.

SOURCES OF THE RAIL SHIPPED
 TOMATO CROP.

Beginning early in the year and continuing until la.e in the fall. to- matoes are shipped commerci@ll fialI over half of the states of the Uion. There is probably no oth ? perishable vegetable commonly grown out of doors in the United States which appears on the market through a larger season than does the tomato
 Florida, of course, with its location and climate, stands as the premier tcm;ato state and starts the tomato movement each year in January. The northern states, such as New York and Ohio, finish out the season in Qo- tober, and by the time the movement is over, approximately l2,000 caas are moved for table consumption, aC- c0rding to a recent survey made by the department of agriculture.
 Florida ships about half the toma- toes p,oved (6.oo0 cars), with Missis' sippi, New Jersey. and Texas ltapdi' iug approximately 1.ooo cars apis ce. The other states grow to,nstoes in sn,alter uuan,ities, but i'll certain dis tries such as West regd ee, tno crop is of great local importance.

Pine Bluff daily graphic., 1915-09-03

There are, certain localities where it is more profitable to raise toma- toes for canning than for table use. New York, Delaware, and Ohio put the bulk of their production into the can, so that ths total used for this purpose is more than that shipped for table use.
 Most of the table tomatoes are picksd when green and wrapped in paper to ripen on the way to market in ventilated cars. Texas for a num- ber of years has preferred to send its crop to market picked w.psn ripe and shipped in iced cars Near many cities large quantities of tomatoes are shipped when fully ripe by elec- tric lines, trucks, and other convey ances. ~t
 Different tomato-g growing locali- ties endtavuo to raise their crop so as not to be in competition with each other, and every effort is made to rush the crop to market before the local tomatoes come in. The last of the Southern crop IS frequently wasted because 1t cannot sell i'll ccln- petition win the Northern tomatoes.

bent his energies to improving the quality of his garden truck. He cleared in his banner season SITS and in seven years $s75 almost enough to pay his way through college. During the sum- .mer vacations, while in college, he will again raise vegetables on his half acre and devote the proceeds to his educa- 'tional Hnnd. He attributes his success to the fact that he saved every cent of the profits : 1 Hens are sending a thrifty city girl through college fortysof; them, one vacant city lot and plenty of grit i1s one year. yielded Grace Breed 9en6ugh money to pay all the expenses. of her freshman year at the Colorado Agricul- tural college. :,
 It was this girl's ambition to go to college, but because of her fathers poor health and consequent inability to work, she knew that she would have to pay her own way. She had no idea how to earn money, till one day while feeding the family chickens, the thought came to her "Why not let the chickens earn it for me?
 She understood the care of them and she immediately acted on her inspira- tion and so successfully that the chickens have paid her way for year. She read great deal on raising poultry and applied all the scientific knowledge to them that she had gained. In the meantime she had worked up trade, selling only to private families and wss very particular to keep accurate accounts. She found it not only fascin- ating work, but a very satisfactory way of earning moray. She was able to finish her work by noon each day, \ and had no expenses, such as car fare.
 This boy and girl did only what other boys and girls can do if they have she same amount of energy, am- bition and thrift

 The Graphia press, built by the famed Goss company, prints from a continuous roll, delivering the paper printed. cut and folded. When it was started by men not very familiar with the mechanism il was found that the folder and tie fountain that sup plies and regulates the flow of ink were out of adjustment. A loose bolt caused the breakage of small but Important part, resulting in further delay The press was in good shape when the previous run was finished, and circunstances inlicate that 1t was tempered with in the interim.
 Wilson Williams, who has been with the Monroe News-Star for sew eral years, arrived Wednesday night to take charge of Tine Graphic press room. He has not yet had time to repair the damage inflicted on the $6OO0 machine, but hopes to do so in couple of days. When this Is ac- cpmplished, The Graphic will be one of the best-printed papers in the country, as the machine was built to 10 good work and MT.

xNO DEMOCRACY INVOLVED IN
 THE WAR.

Nations involved i'll the present war have habit of referring to the democracy that they are fighting for. Soms shout ''liberty," others "kultur,' ' and it IS evident that the people in all of them are fooled by these speci- ous pleas designed to inflsna their minds and create the belief that their particular nation at least has an ex- cuse for bulche,ing fellow human 1eingS.
