in Camp Zachary Taylor, Is in Rich
mond on short furlough.
Sturm, who was enlisted in the Ma

formerly made up of Richmond men,
the rest having been transferred to
Camp Shelby, at Hattiesburg, Miss.
With Sturm in the headquarters com

from Richmond.
The meals are fairly good. and they
feed US enough If we want to eat,
Sturm says.
The best meal | have had since
entered camp was set out one night by
Sergeant Lawrence Jessup. Jessup in
vited me over to his quarters for sup
per and the cook there fixed up regu
lar meal.
Sturm will return to Camp Zachary
Taylor next Tuesday.

Deposit Mail Before
s O'Clock, is Plea

Business men and factories are
asked to do their mailing twice a day
instead Of waiting until o'clock when
mail is brought to the post office.
Postmaster Beck said Saturday, the
working force is lighter at night than
in the day and consequently it is i'm
possible to get all this mail in addi
ton to private mail distributed until
morning.
If business houses and corporations
having large quantities of mail would
endeavor to deposit mail at II o'clock
and 6 o'clock the difficulty might be
overcome.
In order to make the distribution
easier, firms are asked to arrange mai
in states according to their mailing
lists.

WOULD TRAIN YOUTHS

Secretary Redheld Makes Suggestion
and Asks President Wilson
to Approve It.

To provide n means of giving tech
meal training to hundreds of thousands
of boys between the ages of sixteen

take the places of men called to the
colors, Secretary Redfield of the De-
partment of Commerce today made the
suggestion in a communication to
President Wilson that he give pub
lie approval to movement to keep
the vocational training schools open

Secretary Redfeld today conferred

thing for his country but is not trained.

to get training which would fit them to
get into some special line of work,
Secretary Redfield is of the opinion that
wonderful material could be obtained from
the bright young men who have had a
grammar school education and are will
ing to give their time in these vocational
schools in order to fit them to become
specialists in helping their country.
The Secretary said that the opening of
these schools would serve a threefold
purpose. 1t would release men for war
service and provide quick means for
filing the places of the men drafted;
would teach to the young men such war
industries as the circumstances re-
quires. and would train them to become
technical factory inspectors of war ma
terials to be turned out as necessity

In addition it would increase the eff
cheney and earning power of many men

HINTS FOR GARDENERS
ON GROWING TOMATOES
81. M. Connolly Says Now Is Time tt
Begin Training UP
the Plants.

Directions for growing tomatoes were
given today by H. NJ Connolly, expert
from the Department of Agriculture.
District
up the tomatoes if the work has not
already been DONE" Mr.. Connolly said
Much better tomatoes. with more free
dom from disease are secured by train
ing the tomatoes up from the ground
than II they are left to themselves. In
training tomatoes. only one or two
stems are allowed to grow and the
other side shoots are kept pinched out.
Pinch out the side shoots when small
rather than when they get four or six
inches long. Be careful not to pinch
out the flower clusters, though these
can readily be distinguished from the
growing shoots
tomatoes may be trained up to
stakes or on wire. If stakes are used,
one stake Is placed at the side of each
plant and driven firmly into the ground.
Slx-root stakes are desirable. and they
can be driven one foot into the ground.
A one-fnch by two-inch strip is plenty
strong enough. If wire is used. sub
stantial post Is located at each end OF
the row of tomatoes. with a supporting
stake in the middle If the rows are
long. One wire is stretched from these
posts at height of FIVE feet. and an
other at two feet. The tomatoes are
trained to these wires by string.
Whether stakes or wire Is used, the
vines must be tied up every few days
While they are growing fast.
In many gardens barrel hoops are
used to support the tomato plants, but
no shoots are trimmed out. This plan
is better than no support. but training
up to a single or two stems gives
better crop of tomatoes.
During this rainy spell we are hav-
ing. caution should be used in going
about the garden. Especially is this
true among the beans. Snap beans
should not be worked or beans picked
when the plants are wet, for it causes
the rapid spread of rust on the plants.
I'm many gardens early crops of peas
are about over. and these areas should
be planted to other crops such as cab
bage. tomatoes or snap beans. These
may be planted even before the peas
also a good crop to follow garden peas
II the area Is OF any size"
