Training OF 100000 Young
Men During 1918.
WOULD KEEP NATION READY
'trst Camps to Call for Men Be-
tween Ages OF Twenty and
Iwcnty-Twn-'Thcs to Re Given
Intensive Training.

FORT SHERIDAN. ILL. December
i5.--out OF the second reserve officers
training camp. which has just ended at
FORT Serbian. has come an idea which
eventually may solve the problem OF
universal military training in the
United States. according TO it's sponsors
The idea contemplatcs a system OF
summer training camps in each State.
not only during. but after. the war.
The plan. known AZ the Fort Sher-
dan Idea" already has been laid be-
fore President Wilson for his approval.
The Fort Sheridan idea. which ha.
been worked out by Colonel James a.
Ryan. commander OF the officers train
Ing camp, provides for the training Of
100000 mon between The ages OF
twenty and twenty-five during the
summer OF 1918 for service during the
war. 1t provides also for Il continuou.
series OF summer cncampmcnts in each
State after the war. which VIII train.
In four successive seasons. All men be
tween the ages OF seventeen and
twenty-one.
Sponsors for the plan believe It will
rive tho United States n nation per-
petually prepared against war without
the burden of great military estab-
liehment. It Will do away. i, Is de-
clared. with the National Guard. tho
state militia and all other training
&C ntingents.
Universal military training can be
brought about with training periods
limited to three months OF each year.
Juno. July and August. the months

and the men arc on vacation" said Col
onel Ryan. in explanation OF his
method. The young men coull be as
hcmbled In camps in their respective
Staten under canvas and under condi-
times of war.
PERMITS TRAINING
AT VACATIOi. TIME
This would do away with the ex-
pense OF training mon all tho year
round and would make possible their
training at a time when ten hours
work a day would be possible. Con
tinucd through each summer for four
successive summers, tho training would
turn out the young man who started
at seventeen az wcll-traiucd soldier
at his majority. The trainin. he
months periods would equal what he
would receive in the regular army in
whole year. and al the end OF the
fourth season would be equivalent "a
four years in the regular army
Here is the outline Of the training
system aS stated by Colonel Ryan:
This system should be inaugurated
at once. with preparation to take into
State camps. under direction of the
War Department, on June !. 1918. AL

years Old and less than twenty-five
This would bring under training 1000
600 men, and these three months OF in
tcnS!ve training would, by the end OF
August place them in condition to be
put into the army ready for action
Should the war continue. the camps
could be used continuously from April

COTTAGE CHEESE-AN INEXPEN,
SIVE MEAT SUBSTITUTE

Cottage cheese is one of the impor-
tant meat substitutes, say specialists
of the United States Department of
Agriculture. 1t contains a larger per-
centage of protein 1.-THE chief material
for body buildingl than most meats
and furnishes this material at lower
cost. In every pound of cottage cheese
there is about one-ffth of a pound of
protein, nearly all of which is diges-
tible. Meats, on the other hand, usual
ly contain less protein and besides
have certain waste, such as bone
and other inedible material. A pound
Of cottage cheese daily would supply
all the protein required by the ordi-
nary adult engaged in a sedentary &C.
cupation.
The following table shows that cot
tage cheese is much cheaper than most
meats in furnishing protein for the
diet.
For supplying protein, one pound of
cottage cheese equals:
1.27 pounds sirloin steak.
| 1.09 pounds round steak.
1877 pounds chuck rib beef
1.52 pounds fowl.
LAG pounds fresh ham.
LA pounds smoked ham.
1.5S pounds loin pork chop.
1.31 pounds hind leg of lamb.
1877 pounds breast of veal.
In addition to protein, energy for
performing body work must be fur
nished by food As source of energy
also, cottage cheese is cheaper than
most meats at present prices. The
following table shows the comparison
when energy is considered.
On the basis of energy supplied, one
pound Of cottage cheese equals:
1-3 ounces sirloin steak.
liz ounces round steak.
liz ounces chuck rib beef.
10A ounces fowl
5k ounces fresh ham.
ounces smoked ham,
ounces loin pork chop,

The test Of time Is what tells the
tale. The public soon finds out when
Misrepresentation are made, and
merit alone will stand the test Of

of the bladder and annoyance from
my kidneys. The kidney secretionf
burned in passage and often were re.

small Of my back which greatly inter
fered with my work. Doans Kidney
Pills, which got at Wood G. Sons
Drug Store, gave me prompt relief"
Mr.. Dresel gave the above statement
on February 6, 1908, and on November
IA, 1916, he added 81 have had the
same faith in Doan's Kidney Pills TO-
day as ever, for I haven't had any trou

dorsed Doan's Kidney Pulls. II you
