KiIauea's Lava Lake.

Early reports indicate that the
alarms of war will not prevent many
Americans from visiting their new
national park in Hawaii. Three cele-
brated volcanoes, Kilauea, Mauna
Loa and Haleakala are in the new
reservation. The lava lake at
Kilauea, a spectacle which has drawn
thousands of visitors in past years
from every part of the world, will
be, it is predicted, unusually spectacu-
lar this season because of the recent
increased volcanic activity in the re-
giOn.

Why Bottle Was Emnty.

One delight of small Harold was to
90 on an errand to neighbOring store.
After school yesterday at No. he
was sent by his mother to get a siphon
of vichy. He was long in returning.
When he did arrive. his mother scold-
ed him for consuming so much time
"Why," she exclaimed, "and the 81
phon is nearly empty. Do you mean to
tell me that is all the vichy there was
in the bottle when you got it,"
"Well, mamma" Harold replied. "on
the way home met little Sarah's cat"
"Well?"
1.-The cat said 'p-s-s-t' to me and the
siphon said 'p-s-s-t' TO her."

Three Training Fields Ready

"Whatever may be the difficulty Of
turning out Immediately in the United
States the swift and delicate fighting
planes of the latest type, we already
are manufacturing in large numbers
planes which are fitted for the train
ing of air pilots and observers.
Three of the "a big aviation fields
which we shall build for training our
new air army already are completed,
and the work of instruction is under
way.
The public. generally, has small
idea of the immensely OF these great
training camps for birdmen. Camp
Wilbur Wright. for instance located
near Dayton. O.. home of the immortal
inventor of the heavier-than-air flying
machine, covers a tract Of land meas
uring two miles by four miles, Its
hangers stretch unbroken for a dis
lance of two miles. These buildings
will house IA biplanes for the use of
the embryo aviators. The United
States will be the great training camp
for aviatcrs for all the allied armies"
One may get a faint idea of the al
most incredible expansion which Is
proposed In the air branch of the mill
tary and naval arm of the United !
States forces by considering that while |

With the signing by President VIII
son of the bill apprOpriating $780,
100000 for building, equipping, and
manning an enormous navy of the sir,
these plans took big step toward
realization.
Huge triplanes of the power, speed,
and weight carrying capacity described
have been built and now are being
tested in Italy. Triplanes of the same
type, considerably smaller ihan the
new giants but still of great size and
power, now are in actual use in Italy.

horse power Caproni engines, for in

more than three tons to a height Of

Defeat of U-Boats Seen.

The fact that these great machines
cost $4,000 or more each will not pre-
vent their being built in large numbers
in the United States, once the neces-
sary jigs, dies, and special tools are
completed from the models furnished
by the Italian government.
Many experts see in the creation OF
a fleet of such big airships, together
with five or six times as many small
fighting planes for their protection, the
only certain method of defeating the
submarine peril, of destroying NUM-
ton plants and military and naval
bases, and of swiftly driving the Ger
man army back behind the Rhine.
"The program for which this vast
appropriation has Just been made"
said Howard e. Coffin, chairman of the
aircraft production board, must be-
carried out with a promptness equal
to that of congress in passing the bill.
Whatever crimes may later be laid at
our doors, that of slOwness in accom-
plishment must not be one of them.
We are ready to go ahead at once"

TIONS FOR MARCH.

March is the month for the gar
dener who is to have plenty OF
spring vegetables. If the soil has
not yet been prepared do not delay
longer to plow it, 4 to S inches
deep. Scatter a little barnyard
manure over the top and work it
in with a disk cultivator. being
sure to~leave the ground free from
clods.
Make all rows far enough apart
to permit cultivation with horse
drawn tools.
The planting of several varieties
of early vegetables should not be
delayed longer. Plant the seed
thick to assure good stand Com
paratively shallow planting is best
In early spring, the old rule being
to plant the seed as deep as four
times their own diameter.
The droppings from the chicken
roost make an excellent top dress
ing for the rows after the seed are
planted.
Keep every foot of garden space
busy from now until next fall.
this is the secret of successful gar
dening.
Sweet potatoes for early plants
may be placed in the early part OF
of the month. The most popular
varities are Nancy Hall. Porto
Rico, and Triumph.
