about 500. The bonds will run ar
% years. One will be paid each year
besides the interest.
A law enacted by the last Legislature.
which goes into effect July LIST, limits

to last longer than the road made with

tract for building the road was given
to Joseph f. Burk & Co, of Plainield.
for $16,545.97.

A New Restaurant in Plant 2

The Dupont Company has opened a
large restaurant within the entrance of
plant 2, equipped to feed 500 men. 1t is
open except from 2 to 5 in the morning
and affords great accommodation to work
men.
The Company does not board the 1900
foreigners living at camp 2, who inclnde
POLES, Russians, Lithuanians, Spaniards,
Italians, Portuguese and Greeks but main
talns a store where they purchase their
ratlons and cook their own meals in the
three kitchens which are provided free
ior their use the same as their sleeping
barracks are. Each foreigner is provided
with a locker and in it he keeps his
cooking utensils and supplies.
The desire of the foreigners for their
national dishes was responsible for this
plan, aud 1t appears to work successfully.

Tips From the Gardener

Farmers in some parts of the West
claim they cal keep flies out OF their
houses by growing hop vines on the
porches and around the back doors. He
is not willing to voueh for the success
OF the plan, but it inay be worth trying,
especially as the hop vine is very orna-
mental anyway, and makes a pretty as
we'll as effective screen. 1t comes up
year after year when once established, and
is very easy to grow.
