The Unity of the Allies.

One of the peculiarly interesting aspects of the
Allied offensive on the Somme is the hearty unison
with which the French and British cooperate.
Never before, observes writer in the New York
Sun have the soldiers and officers of two great ma
tions fought side by side in a great without
considerable degree of friction, purposes and
heartburnings.
"Ten years ago who would have believed
that the French and British would fight thus
like brothers and frankly admire individual
prowess without considering the uniform?
They do not understand each others speech,
and their temperaments dissmiar. What
is even to the point, who would have.
believed that British commanders would cheer
fully subordinate themselves to French gener-
ais and execute the orders given with abso-
Lutte loyalty Indifferent to reputation and fame,
OF at least conceal their disappointment that
the lions share of the glory of achievement
would go to men whose forefathers were de-
feated at Waterloo?"
The temper of unbroken harmony and COM
radeship that has marked the conduct of the French
and British particularly since they have taken the
offensive reflects the entire spirit of the Allied
cause The Central Empires we're bound together
from the outset by unity of race and language
and institutions. But among the Entente Powers
there was wide diversity in all those respects
though they were single people and in recent
months, almost though they were single gov
eminent. Such unity of purpose and action would
not be possible If they not dominated by pro-
found faith in their common cause

Science for National Defense.

The establishment of the Navy Civilian Con-
sulting Board, composed of twenty-four eminent
scientists and engineers with Thomas A. Edison as
chairman, marks important step for progress
and efficiency in national hefense.
In as in peace, science is the pathfinder of
achievement. One chemical discovery may fix the
fate of battle; a single invention may turn the
fortunes of campaign. Who would have pre-
dicted ten years ago that flying machines would
play distinctive, indeed, decisive a part in
military engagements as they have played in the
present war? Who but the initiated imagined that
the British would devise armored motor ma
chine-"the tank" as it is whimsically called
which would knock down trees like match sticks
take bitches like kangaroos and cleave the way to
German redoubts that seemed impregnable? Who
can foresee the weapons and defenses which the
laboratory and workshop, illumined by science,
may yet bring forth?
II it is important to organize the nations in
dustrial for in the event of an emer-
gency, il is even more important to organize the
creative genius of scientists and engineers. The
civilian consulting board which has been instituted
as an adjunct of the navy department will be in
valuable in trying out ideas, in studying the
thousand and one problems of economy and eff
cheney which continually arise and in imbuing the
cause of national defense with a truly scientific
spirit.

A keen observer of the national campaign per-
tinently suggests, in a letter to the New York
Times, that Mr.. Hughes pause in his criticism of
the Presidents foreign policies to weigh the fol-
lowing utterances by justices of the United States
Supreme Court:
A wisdom born after the event is the
cheapest of all wisdom. Anybody could have
discovered America after 1492."-Justice
Brewer
1T is easy to be wise after we see the re-
suits of experience. Justice Strong.
I'VE sometimes fancy ourselves wiser
than perhaps others willing to give
credit for."-Justice Grier.
Mr. Hughes looks backward and complains
President Wilson has looked forward and acted
While the Republican candidate stood aside as an
onlooker, the President in the thick of the
tempest, meeting crisis after crisis and steering
the nation safely through Unable to deny what
the Democratic administration has accomplished,
Mr. Hughes querulously insists that it was accom-
dom born after the event"-the cheapest and
easiest of all wisdom.
He makes no pretense Of saying what he would
have done in the face of the submarine issue or
the Mexican situation. He deals solely in gen.
eral indictment, unsupported by anything like
bill of particulars. That the country is peaceful
and prosperous he cannot dispute, but he con-
dennis the details of the policies by which peace
and prosperity have been maintained. MIR. Hughes
is frst-rate grumber, but what his qualhca-
tions for the Presidency?

+ ASSUME that you appreciate the force of the

Raise the vitality and you increase your chance of

From personal observation let tell you
little story. 1t brought home to most forcefully
the close connection that exists between low vitality
and worry.

hermit-like existence in isolated home in the

Cooking his meals, he lived most irregu-

He grudged the few cents that he daily spent
for the little, too nourishing food he ate For
several years he lived this way.
Naturally, dyspepsia eventually made him its
victim. And after time he began to worry, with
an almost insane intensity, about the state of his

WORRY AND VITALITY
BY H. ARLINGTON BRUCE

He tortured himself with vague fears. He began
to visit his neighbors but only to inflict them
a long recital of his woes.
It was felt at he really insane. Relatives
were sent for One consented to take him into his
home and care for him.
Then the unexpected happened. Given good
meals three times day, taking exercise regularly
in the open air. he began to put on flesh, to grow
in strength.
And as he gained in physical vigor his monu-
mental worry gradually faded into nothingness.
This little story has personal application to
every one of us. For our own good we ought to
adopt the course it suggests, whether or no we are
now afflicted with worry in any degree
If we are worriers. it must be said frankly thai
physical measures alone may not suffice to cure us
of our worrying. But they will greatly help. As

especially those whose vital processes are too slow

assuredly is equally true that low vitality makes

The method by which a club Of this
kind operates is extremely simple.
After the club has been formed, and
prices for ice in ton lots at the factory
have been asGertained, some member
volunteers to go to the factory, pur-
chase 100 pounds of ice (allowing
100 pounds for shrinkage), and deliver
50 pounds of ice to each member of
the club. The next day some other
member Of the club drives to town,
purchases LOO pounds of ice, and de-
livers 50 pounds Of ice to each mem
Der of the club, Each day a different
member of the club drives to the local
ice plant, purchases LOO pounds, and
makes the delivery. In that way it
will be necessary for an individual
member to make trip to town for ice
only once in twenty days. Arrange
ments may be made so that the mem
Der whose turn falls on Saturday can
haul 1000 pounds of ice, and make
his deliveries. Then it will not be
necessary for any one to make the
rounds on Sunday. The member who
made the double delivery on Saturday
can then skip his succeeding turn. In
all probability it will not be necessary
for any member of the club to make
more than about seven or eight trips
in a season, instead of seventy or
eighty trips which he would have to
make if he were to act independently
in the matter of buying and hauling
ice. Not only is there saving in the
time spent in hauling, but there is also
clear saving of money.
First-The independent method of
buying and hauling ice tends to hap
hazard use of ice. This alone may re-
suit in the spelling of any food prod
ucts which require refrigeration
Second-Ice can be bought much
cheaper in 1000 pound lots than in
smaller quantities.
At the Knoxville quotation a saving
of so cents per ton, or cents per hun
dredweight would follow when ice was
bought in 1,000-pound lots, or more.
To the farm family that uses so pounds
of ice per day this would be a saving
of 21B cents for every so pounds of ice
used. If we count the ice season to
be from May list to October list, which
amounts to $50 days, this would indi.
cate a saving Of $3,75 per season. This
$3.75 could be used to buy $500 pounds
Of ice the next season
The advantages of this method of
buying ice are many. 1t provides a
steady supply of ice for the entire sum.

HOUSING o. YOUNG HICKS
is OF GREAT IMPORTANCE
"a" Shape Coop Very Practicable in
Tennessee-Care Should Also Be
Taken in Feeding.
(By R. N. Crane, Division of Extension
University of Tennessee.)

At this season of the year the wom-
en- on the farm are busy setting hens,
and starting off the young chickens.
I know of no way that the men on the
farm can facilitate this work any more
than by supplying the farm women
with adequate coops in which to house
the old hens, and the brood OF
chickens.
Perhaps one of the best coops for
Tennessee conditions is the "A" shape
coop, with tight walls, and detacha'
BILE wooden bottom. The back OF the
coop should be solid plank with a nall
dozen augur holes through it for ventl
Iatiop, sufficiently small, however, that
rats can not get through. The front OF
the coop should have Stats, 27a inches
apart. The hen should be confined IN
the coop from the time the chickens
are Matched until they are weaned, al
lowing the chickens free access to the
yard. With the hen confined, during
heavy rains one is not compelled to
get out, and gather up the chickens
Rather the old hens will gather them
in on the wooden floor where they VIII
be safe from drowning.
The best feed for the young chickens
for the first four or five days seems tc
be hard boiled eggs broken up fine
with the she'll included. 1t is well tc
add any egg shells that may be le1l
from the eggs used in the kitchen
First scorch them, then break up fine
and mix with the hard boiled eggs
After the fourth or fifth day, feed corn
bread made as follows: Ten pounds
of cornmeal, one dozen eggs, one
pound of sifted beef scrap, enough
milk to make pastry mash, and one
teaspoon of baking soda. Bake well
This should be fed for four or five
weeks, after which time small cracked
grain should constitute the feed.
Chickens should be fed five times

four times a day. Before the chicks

In the absence of cold springs it is
well-nigh impossible to preserve milk,
butter, eggs and cooked foods of all
kinds in the farm home When one
estimates the losses that occur from
spoiled food, and compares it with the
saving effected by ice, it becomes evil
dent that during the hot summer
months ice is as indispensable to
the welfare of the family as cold
water.
The arguments for not using ice
have been that to drive to town every
day or every other day for 100 pounds
of ice is too inconyenient; that the
expense is too great in number Of
localities in the south. These objec
tions have been met by people in some
rural communities through co-opera
tive effort. Where distances between
farm homes are not too great, and PEG
