CUSTER MEN FOR BADGER UNIT
Troops to FIJI Guard Ranks to Be
Sent to Wisconsin Unit.

Camp Macarthur, Waco, Texas-Up-
letting plans of regimental officers to
Ill gaps in Michigan infantry regi-
nents with selected soldiers from
Camp Custer, Battle Creek, Brigadier
General Willis G.. Ham, division COM
nander, has issued an order which in-
1icates that the vacancies will be filled
by trained soldiers from the Fifty-sev-
snth (Wisconsin) depot brigade and
that the new army men will be assign
I'D in body to the Badger state unit.
This means that the Battle Creek
recruits will be trained in a body be-
lore being distributed among the
guardsmen.
When this order is carried out, the
One Hundred and Twenty-fifth and
he One Hundred and Twenty-sixth in
,antry regiments will be made up Of
guards who are well advanced in their
training, but neither one of the regi-
ments will be Michigan outfit. Both
will have at least 1000 Wisconsin men.
The Fifty-seventh depot brigade, to
which 1t now seems likely all the
selected soldiers from Camp Custer
will be assigned, will be used as a
reserve unit during the war. 1t will

used to fill up gaps.

ObjEC7OR CURED
BY KITCHEN WORK
POLICE DUTY DAY AFTER DAY
BANIsHEs CONSCIENTIOUS
scRUPLEs OF ROOKIE.
IS FIRST CASE At CAMP CUSTER
After q Week Of Potato Peelino He
Appealed For Chance to Get
Back Into Ranks.

Camp Custer, Battle Creek-Only
one conscientious objector has made
his appearance at Camp Custer thus
Tar. He was an intelligent young fell
low and stated his objections with
clearness. He did not claim any re-
ligious connection, nor did he base
his attitude on spiritual grounds. He
simply said that he did not believe 1t
right to take human life under any
circumstances, and did not want to
be placed in position where he
would have to do it. He hung back
In the drill work and utterly baked
at the rife.
Instead of arguing with him the cap
tain put him to work peeling potatoes
Morning after morning, he went down
to the cooks kitchen and did mental
labor All through the day, he peeled
mountains Of potatoes that were al
ways disappearing as fast as he peeled
them.
The boys Of his company came In
red-cheeked and hungry from their
field exercises, looking fit for anything
In their field uniforms; but he wore
long dirty white apron, and scraped
the grease out of cooking pans.
His conscience was being fully re-
spected. No one jeered at him; no
pne joshed him. Kitchen police" is
part Of every company's duty, and
every man takes his turn at it--so
there was no special humiliation in
that, except that he was doing all the
time what soldier does only in his
turn.
After a week at this work his con-
science underwent a change. He asked
permission of the captain to become
soldier in the company. In due
course he will probably be permitted
to resume his place In the ranks.

WITH THE B0YSAT CAMP CUSTER

A school for horseshoers will be
opened at the remount station and 278
men will be transferred to It.
Nearly 90 officers have been shifted
from one command to another to give
each man a position more suitable to
his talents. as such jobs opened with
the widening Of camp activities.
Conscientious DIRECTORS have given
the camp little trouble. The few be-
long to recognized sects and will be
assigned to non-combatant service. A
few Mennonities and Adventists form
the bulk.

FRANCE IN SPRING IS PROSPECT
State Guardsmen, Hoping for Early
Trip Overseas, Disappointed.

Euardsmen in training here, who have
dreamed Of an early departure to
France are apparently doomed to
disappointment. There is a disposi-
ton on the part of high, but unquota-

Christmas dinner in France. The best
authorities hold that It will be spring
at least before the 32d division leaves
Texas.
The war department announcement
that guard troops will sail ahead OF
selected men pleases officers and men,
There was feeling that guard troops
might be used for duty in this coun-

HOPPER FEEDING FOWLS.

Advantages and Otherwise of This
Method of Caring For Chickens.
No fixed rule can be given for the
best method Of feeding young stock
for the reason that different circum-
stances necessitate different arrange
ments. After the young chickens are
six weeks old. IL they are on free
range in coops or colony houses where
there is an abundance Of green stuff to
be had for the foraging. 1t is good
plan to provide them with hoppers fill
ed with dry mash to which they have
access all the time.
Some breeders advocate the use of
hoppers for whole grains, too, and in
many cases 1t works out successfully
There Is the chance. however. that
some fiOcks may gorge themselves on
the grains. if they are unstinted. and
then sit around and loaf the greater
part of the day instead of "rustling"
over the range for insect life and green
food and at the same time getting suf-
flcient exercise so necessary to the
proper development OF young fowls
In other words, If this plan is adopted
it should be done so experimentally.
subject to moderation If the attendant
finds that the birds are getting lazy.
The disadvantages of hand feeding q,
regular meal times are these: The flock
soon gets to know the feeder and the
times and places where they are fed
Every day the birds will wait for the
attendant, follow him around and beg
for food. and when it has been thrown

to them they will scramble for it, ill III
their crops to capacity and then go of
under bush somewhere until the mea
is digested, whereupon they are read,
for the next feeding.
In few words, chicks are capable oil
judging what amount of food Is best
for them If they have been properly
trained from the beginning and given
the right sort of living conditions, sc
that by actual test they do not eat
more when hopper fed than when hand
fed. There is a great deal Of truth IN
the idea that one wants that which Is

Excepting in France, very little
was known of the Faverolles until
1886. when they were taken up by
English breeders and later by
Americans. They are bred in sew
eral colors. white, salmon. ermine
and black. The whites and the salm-
ons are probably the most popu-
lar i'm this country. They are con-
sidered good layers and weigh
about eight pounds for cocks and a
pound less for hens. They are
valued as table poultry. The odd
feature Of the Faverolle Is the
growth Of feathers resembling a
beard and mutton chops around the
throat and ears. This whiskering is
one of the fixed characteristics of
the entire breed. The hen shown Is

DIFFERENCE IN SONS.

A business man was approached one
day by a saloonkeeper who asked If
he had position in which he could
place his (the saloonkeeper's) son.
The two men had been lifelong
friends. The business man hesitated
moment and the saloon man quickly
followed up his request with this state
ment:
II know he was little bit wild
and reckless for time, and it is my
fault, because of the business l am in.
1 think l have him Strengthened out
now, and want to place him outside
of and away from the saloon and put
it up to him to make good in a respec-
table line of business"
The business man promised to give
the young man chance at the first
opportunity. His friend thanked him,
and then went back to his saloon, put
on his white apron and was ready for
the sons of other fathers as they
might drop into his place, to sell them
his beer and his whisky and give them
their start or help them on their way
down the grade to the state of incom
petents and undesirables.

CLASS SORGHUMS IN GROUPS
Saccharine Used for Manufacture Of
Sirup-Grains Are Adapted to
Semi-Arid Regions.

fBy ]. F.. NICHOLSON. Agronomist, Uni
versity OF Arizona)
The sorghums are generally classed
into two groups: The saccharlne, a
mild sorghum used for sirup making
or for forage, and the nonsaccharine
sorghums, sometimes called grain sor-
ghums, used for grain and forage.
The grain sorghums are of tropical
origin, and possess the ability of flour
ishing best in hot climates. They are
particularly drought resistant, and adj
mirably adapted to the semi-arid re-
gions of the South. They reach their
best development under eight to ten
inches of rainfall during the growing
season.
There are three general types of
grain sorghums classified according to
the character of head! sa.s

.. Durra, with compact pendant
heads.

of Colorado working people is at least
30 per cent better as result of state

All the StOrerOOmS vacated by saloons
