This WAR GARDEN
HELPS OLD HI COST
Amateur Agriculturists
Waste Potatoes and Plant
Beans in Shade
FERTILIZER so CHEAP
MUCH IS WASTED

Truckers and gardeners who have
been watching with interest the activ-
tiles Of the amateur gardeners on the
war community gardens in and about
this city sad that considerable labor
and materials such as seeds. potatoes.
fertilizers. etc, are being wasted by
the inexperienced farmers.
Some idea of just what this useless
waste amounts 10 was seen by hun
dreds of people who CHANGED TO visit
the community gardens on the tract
OF the Concord Heights Company yes
terday. This tract Is being worked
by n large number of Italians and
they worked industriously all day
yesterday planting potatoes and seeds.
These men and women spent the
greater portion Of the day planting
potatoes in ground that had been
ploughed TIE first time in ten OF If
teen years. and without waiting for II
TO he narrowed they were digging
holes with carpenters adzs 70
depth OF two feet in some instances.
Into these holes. which al times re-
sembled the crater OF a she'll hole IN
Europe. the amateur gardeners were
dropping whole potatoes.
W IN spuds selling al 50 and $500
per bushel II was evident TO those
watching the truckers that a much
larger piece Of land could have been
nlanted with the eyes OF the potatoes
had they been properly prepared. TO
further hamper their work, cabbage
had been planted between the rows
of potatoes which will mature as
ranidlv as the spuds and which are
recognized by agriculturists as gross
feeders and naturally rob the soil 81
the life wing elements needed TOT
notato culture. When asked why the
potatoes had not boon cut so tnat
more plants could be raised from each
potato. those owning the gardens re-
piled. 1T Is too much work,
While this utter disregard OF me
value Of potatoes was being haunted,
other gardeners who had just planted
wax beans. were seen scattering far's
green over the ground. In some
niaces the ground. which Is very high
resemb'ed the bed OF a swamp tne
Paris gree9 causing a green scum 70
form on We surface. Another strlk-
ing ILLUSTRATION Of the lack OF knoWi'
edge of agriculture was evident in a
patch OF wax beans whlch were PAM
ed under tree which was covered
with Paris green.
In addition 10 the waste or tertil
izer. several hundred pounds or Ter
tilizer in bags were exposed to th'
elements and the lime had been water
soaked. so that It was as hard as rock
Those who watched the workers
said that with a supervisor on th'
ground directing them how. to pre-
pare the soil and when and how U
protect thcir growing plants iron
nests and how to harrow and cuitl
waite the grounds. considerable FOOD
stuffs could be raised on the tracts

Alice M. Alger, rsoo-roI7.

Alice NJ. Alger, oldest daughter o
Thomas b. and Matte Waldo, was bori
on the 18th of July, 1906, in the OLE
farmhouse situated on the Chelsea road
Graduating from Williamstown higl
school in 1910, she continued her educa
ton at Montpelier seminary, where sh,
headed her class and graduated will
honors in 1913.
In the fall of 1914 she was married tc
Fred Alger and went to live on farm
which he had purchased in Underhill
Eighteen months afterward they re.
turned to Williamstown and lived in the
village until last July, when they bought
and took possession of Ray Thresher's
farm on south hill. Living practically
all her life in this town, growing up
among its people, a girl with splendid
intellect and happy disposition, Mrs. Al.
ger was very popular, and the whole
community was saddened when it be-
came known that she had passed away
on Sunday evening, Aug. 10. Hers was a
life of definite Christian profession, and
the people of the township paid fine
tribute to her character when they
crowded the Methodist church of which
she was a member and covered its affairs
with flowers as sweet and pure as her
memory.
The tears of her friends and the sor-
row of those who knew her best were
eulogy that needed not to be expressed
by words. Tenderly they carried the
casket to Gods acre" on the hillside,
and there amidst the flowers and the
grasses the remains were lowered into
their long resting place
Mrs. Alger is survived by her husband,
her mother and sister, Edna, and grand
parents, and the profound sympathy of
the entire community goes out to them
in this, their day of sorrow.
So as we tread life's hills of pain,
It's levels of common need,
Face its worst and best, find it loss and
gain,
Let this stand in our creed:
We are each the other's-heart, hand and
brain
By the love that is love indeed.

CAN'T GET CRUSHED STONE.
Burlington Quarries Shut Down Because
of Lack of Men to Run Them.

Burlington, Aug. 24-The city street
department is cup against it" to secure
| crushed stone to do surface and repair
work. The source of supply for the past
several years has been the Willard ledge
and Phelps quarry. At the present time
but a handful of men are employed at
the Willard ledge and none at all at
the Phelps quarry, so that the produc-
ton has been curtailed almost to moth
ing.
The principal reason for the shutting
down of the plants is the scarcity of men
to work, ard while the city needs the
material badly for repair work particu-
larly, it cannot get it.
For year or two certain amount OF
gravel has been drawn from pit at
Ethan Allen park, but the park commits
sioners have put stop to this now.
Unless men can be found to produce the
stone at the quarries, conditions on the
streets win not improve, says the super.
intendent, Mr.. Coffey.
Mr.. Coffey made trip to the park yes
terday to inspect the gravel pits on the
premises, from which it may be possible
to get material, at least for patching.
The park commissioners at conference
yesterday afternoon agreed that there
was not more than enough gravel to keep
in repair the roads through the park.
The street superintendent is of the opin
ion that there is much more gravel than
appears on the surface and sufficient
would be available for the city streets
were it opened up.
