A SOLDIERS CAMP. =

truth, no matter how ugly, if the well
fare of humanity and justice demand
it, l am writing to describe the con-
dition, location, ETC., Of the camp
site of the First Ill brigade in Texas.
l am a noncommissioned officer in
the Seventh regiment, but for fear Of
the powers that be, and they are
very real and active, l hesitate to
sign my name, but nevertheless the
facts l state without adding to or
taking from can all be verified by
thousands of soldier, including regi-
mental surgeons, officers, ETC., all
down the line.
To begin, we arrived at this place,
called Landa's Park, where we are
supposed to be encamped, but
climbed the hill and made camp on
top, which is fat and fenced of and
is used as sheep, and, believe, goat
pens. We are in the pens. The
ground is covered from three to sew
en- inches with fine, ground-up sheep
manure, as fine as pepper. There is
no possible way Of cleaning it or get
ting rid Of it, as the wind is always
blowing. The air is full of this filth.
We breathe it in with every breath
we take and the food is fun of it, as
we have no place to eat but of the
ground. You can imagine for your
self this condition. l arrived here
myself at nightfall, but I yelled. to
beat hell in the morning, but what
can a poor nOncom do?
There is no such thing as camp
hygiene pFacticed here, although
Major Rogers q learned this morn
ing) condemned the camp site when
he arrived, but he is only major.
The water supply consists of one |
line of pipe with a faucet for each !
kitchen. If we wish to wash our
selves or clothing there is no chance
except to down into the park at the |
foot of the hin and pay Is cents to
1yoob ond oI1r clothes V1o1Iut 80 a. /

about $2O,OOO,00O He gets his little
commission from the whole bunch, it
is said. Even the jitney buses must
pay him, so they charge us Is cents
to go to town. New Braunfels),
which is about a mile away.
l expect there will be quite few
cases of sore throat, etc., from the
rotten dust we are compelled ITO
sleep in, and wake up in the morning
with our ears, hair and clothes coy
cred with it.
Another danger that threatens us
is that Of lockjaw, as you know ma
nure of all kinds is the great carrier
of the tetanus germ. l have warned
most of our boys and told them to
spread the warning and how to take
precautions to avoid it.
Why can't we camp on the clean
ground or hard rock, any place that
is clean? Why are we penned up like
a lot of animals and exploited for all
we have? Was it a crime to volun-
teer to fight to protect the border
and cross it if necessary? have soil
diered some. We are all mostly in
telhgent enough to be wise to the fact
that we are being worked =
Please investigate and you can
verify all 1 have written. It is all the
truth, so help me God. - Noncom1-
missioned Officer Seventh III. Inft'ry.

ties how to make themselves more at

To satisfy demands made by more

The national, state, county and city

clubs, real estate board and women's

FIRE PREVENTION PAYS WELL
Safe Construction Lowers Insurance
and Reduces Depreciation
j Repairs Cost Little.

Il the walls and roof Of the house
are Of fre-resistant material fully 60
per cent of the fire hazard is overcome,
says the writer of an article On "Com-
mon Sense Home Building" which is
published in the June issue Of Con-
struction. In the interior it is not nec-
essary to eliminate wood from the I'm
ishing. There is no objection to trim
on doors and even the floors above the
first may be Of wood.
The basement should, by all means,
be cut off from the rest Of the house
by masonry floor, protected stairway
and freproof doors connecting with
the first floor. Partitions should be Of
fre-resistive material in order to check
the rapid spread of flames. In other
words, think Of fire as it really is and
use common sense in the construction
of the house.
In most localities a house Of this
type is credited with a noticeable re-
duction in insurance cost. Naturally,
too, the cost Of maintenance is re-
duced, painting and repairs are not
necessary. Another saving factor is
the matter of depreciation. A frame
house with wood shingles, built as they
IRE today, will depreciate just three
times as quickly as masonry house
with q common-senSe roof.

MAKE PARKS OF BACKYARDs
Baltimore Has Demonstrated That
Division Fences May Profitably
Be Done Away With.

1t has already been convincingly
demonstrated, here in Baltimore, that
the scheme Of tearing down division
fences between city home ,backyards
and developing the unobstructed
stretch Of space thus provided as a
continuous flower garden or a grassed
lawn, is no chimerical or impractical
dream. It has been demonstrated be-
cause it has been done on several back
stretches and partially accomplished
in hundreds Of instances. By partially
accomplished we mean those instances
where two or three or four adjoining
.householders have thrown their back
yards into a common and developed
the enlarged spaces into flower gar
dens. This backyard park idea, de-
veloped to the limit of potentiality.
would mean the tearing down of all
fences on both sides the midway alley
and beautifying all the yards upon
some harmonious scheme Of orna-
mental gardening.
There are comparatively few block
centers in which this complete scheme
of ornamentation can be realized, for
the reason that many owners. wish to
build a garage, stable or some other
kind of outbuilding in the backyard
and fronting along the alley. While
the placing of rear buildings in one or
more of the backyards Of block in
terferes with the complete realization
of the backyard parking scheme, 1t
need not prevent the partial carry
ing out of the plan. And as to back
buildings, their ugliness and inhar-
mony can be greatly modified by
planting climbing roses or other climb
ing vines along their sides and rear
ends. There is nothing so utilitarian
not even stable-that every thought
of Identification, should be abandoned
in ! connection with it.-Baltimore

The Household lnclnerator.

An aid in sanitation especially use
ful in the country Is small garbage
incinerator which can be attached to
the ordinary kitchen range. The sur
plus heat from the range will dry the
garbage in short time. After all the
moisture has been taken up, damper
is opened, which allows draft from
the firebox to pass over the dried gar
bage and consume it to ashes In a
few minutes. The ashes can be re-
moved from the incinerator without
being mixed with those Of the range.
The garbage ashes constitute a valua-
