Dear Sir: We are sorry that the
garden contest is over. We have
learned a good deal about the soil and
We are glad. At first we thought the
vegetables would not grow in our cor,
ner plot in the school yard, for the
tree roots were near the surface of the
ground and the branches of the trees
shaded the place. But Mrs. Churchill
toll us to do what we could. II was
hard work to clear the roots away,
but great fun In cutting the branches
Our vegetables grew quickly and
everyone who ate them said that they
were good, We are going to keep on
planting until June: ..
Yours respectfully, m1la.

SIX B!LLl0Ns !
LOSS ESTIMATE
in WAR COUNTRY
National Foreign Trade
Council Inquiry Reveals
Favorable Conditions.

Pittsburgh, Pa, Jan. 26.-That the
ldss of public and private property in
the European theatres of war repre-
sents a value of $685., 100000 is the
estimate contained in a report of an
inquiry made by the National For
) eign Trade Council and to-day sub
mitted to the fourth National Foreign
Trade Convention. The estimate is
frankly described as merely approx
nation, the sources of Information be-
ing official European government re-
ports. trade and industrial journals,
etc. The report says, in part, of Bel
GUM AND Northern France:
1.-THE destruction of private dwell
ings is large where fighting has taken
place, but much is left that can be
used In rebuilding. Road repair will
from a heavy item. in budgets Of
smaller villages.
'.The destruction Of bridges can be
regarded as complete in@eyery fight
F.. inf zone. Railroad tracks have been
repaired for the use of the army and
civil population.
1.-The greatest enemy of industrial
property has not been military opera
ton, but enforced idleness of ma
chinery and buildings The destruc-
ton of stocks of raw materials was
extensive. Germany has removed
part Of the machinery and equipment
of certain Belgium plants to Ger
many to obtain certain raw materials
like copper or to furnish German
plants with additional machinery.
Industries cannot return with
peace at once to full operation. Meth
er Belgium nor France will imme-
diately require all raw materials, ma
cllir1ery and Industrial building to be
replaced. Conditions will be some
what different, however, in agricu1-
tural districts where production has
been continued. Fields must be
worked Immediately the owners re-
turn. Agricultural machinery, seeds
and building material will be in i'm
mediate demand.
i"After the Balkan war, it took ap-
pr6ximately one year to rebuild des-
troyed Village. 1t will require longer
in Belgium and France, because Of
labor losses not replaceable from
neighboring states. Industrial re-
building will occupy more time. Many
new Industrial buildings in Northern
France and Belgium may consist Of
TEMPORARY structures, the total ex-
pefise of which most likelA will not be
more than one third the total value
Of the former buildings. The imme-
date needs of the two countries dur
ing the first year after the war may
be, as follows: Agricultural buildings,
Belgium $5O.O00,000 and France $780,
600, 1000; agricultural machinery for
Belgium $50,000,000 end France $780,
600, 900; Industrial buildings for Bel
gfdnn $4,000, 900 and France $780,
O0@, O0O;a mining machinery for Bel
gium 100000, 900 and France $40
100000; iron industry machinery for
Belgium $7O,O00,0OO and France $780,
O0D, 00O;. food making machines for
Belgium 100000 and France $10,-
O6O, 900; chemical machinery for Bel
GUM 100000 and France $6,000,-
600; textile machinery for. Belgium

The Bridgeport evening farmer. [volume] (Bridgeport, Conn.) 1866-1917, 1917-01-26

electrical machinery and equipment
for Belgium $130,0O0,000 and France
s50,OOO,000; wood working machin-
cry for Belgium $20,0OO,0OO and
France $18,OOO.00O; paper making
machinery for Belgium 100000
and France 100000.
Both Belgium and France will
scarcely be able to manufacture all
they need for rebuilding, neither can
they import everything. Slate, bricks
and mineral building supplies can be
supplied locally. France may see her
self compelled to buy from abroad
approximately three quarters of the
timber required for rebuilding, while
practically all wanted by Belgium will
have to be imported
That Germany cannot resume her
export trade until the raw materials
have been imported for domestic
needs, is another probability to which
the report gives attention, with a
comment that Germany will restrict
inportations at first to essential ar
ticles. The destruction of property in
Poland is estimated at 1915, 100000
and that in Austria at about $780,
900 and the Balkans $500, 100000.

ventions rather than to openly face
the problem that now demands at
tention
Mrs. Sanger told Of her early life.
her mothers death after rearing a.
large family, her studies as graduate
nurse, and the awful conditions she
found in the homes and the hospi-
tails.
Contrasting the better health Of the
English and Holland women where
her practices are tolerated by the
law she showed that while the, birth
rate has not increased, the death rate
has decreased and by means of elm
les better and healthier children are
brought into the world and many of
the ailments Of women are corrected
before recourse to the operating ta-
BILE, is found necessary. She declared
that clinics for the proper dissemina-
ton of knowledge and practical utili-
zation of the methods proposed are
needed in this country, declared that
she will be the victim of social Justice
but that in her Incarceration or death,
as now proposed by her sister who is
on hunger strike in a New York Jail.
thousands Of women will live and the
social evil will be decreased.
To the laboring classes and labor
unions she sent this message: "In
Lowell and Fall River 90 per cent. of
labor comes from parents who aver
age nine children. Fifty per cent. of
the offspring there are mental defec-
t1veso. In New York city last year
10000 feeble minded girls were in in
stitutions. The mentally defective are
four times more productive than the
normal woman. The menace of our
civilization and the problems are not
today the stationary birth rate among
the wealthy as increasing population
among the poor. This statement
may seem to clash with economic
theories but I could never quite un-
derstand why it is leaders of our labor
organizations have paid so little at
tention to birth control. Had this
propaganda gone hand in hand with,
labor organizations for the last rs
years we would not have been con-
fronted with probler of high labor
and the great problem of the unem-
ployed."
Mrs. Sanger entered into her discus
sion of the anatomy, and told her au-
dience in broad terms of the methods
she proposed to use. She did not
specify the individual treatment, de-
claring that all women needed differ
ing treatment for control.

BILLION IN BULLION
IN STORAGE AT MINT

Philadelphia, Jan. 26-The vaults at
the local mint are being enlarged for
the storing Of more than a billion dol
lars in gold bullion. Upward of $780,
O00, 900 in gold bricks is already in the
vaults and preparations are being
made to relieve the New York sub
treasury Of about $500, 100000.
None Of the bullion viii be convert
ed into coins, according to Adam
Joyce, superintendent Of the mint, as
there already is a surplus of gold coin
in circulation.

MRS. SANGER'S
WORDS PRODUCE
MONEY SHOWER
Hysterical Women So Pleas
ed With Visitors Message
They Give Cash

Mrs. Margaret Sanger, advocate of
birth control, indicted yesterday
morning by the Kings County IN. "
grand jury. for disseminating birth
control literature, spoke plainly in
this city last night upon the subject
and distributed pamphlets more fully
dealing with propagation of the spe-
cfes in flowers, fish, animals and
mankind. Nearly four hundred men
and women listened to her impassion-
ed address at Colonial hall, which was
not disturbed by the police, and the
large majority Historically grasped
her by the hand after the lecture,
showered her with money and offered
their moral support to her campaign.
Mrs. Sanger in handing her critics
the retort courteous declared mere
tofore those who advocated new
principle. destined to aid mankind
were considered b1asphemers but that
in the present age they are merely
considered obscene. She declared
that her appeals for aid to the
wealthy met only with representation.
that the suffragists to whom she ap-
pea1ed were more anxious to get their
own propaganda before the public
than to aid their suffering sisters and
that even labor which would benefit
most by such practices as she pro-
poses have not yet awakened to the
solution of their battles with capital
She vigorously arraigned the medi-
cal fraternity who, she said were loath
to give to the poor that knowledge
which they freely sold to the rich.
declared that the laws of the United
States were such as to force the wom-
en- of this country into celfbacy Or
practices which proved detrimental to
their health and to the population of
the country.
Speaking Of New York city, she de-
clared that for over 20 years the rich
had practiced birth control without
stint and that thousands of innocent
women are the victims of illegal oper-
ations in that city, to the crying
shame of humanity which does not
give them an opportunity which they
demand and which would lessen pow

The Soldier of Today.
pm The Arkansas Gazette,

From The Arkansas Gazette
 Ii cannot be denied that every man able to bear arms owes military duty to his country. lt cannot be denied that the men called to the ranks in time of war should be those who are best fitted for mili- tary service and so circumstanced that they can serve with the least arrangement of the economic and social fabrics.
 Many young man, brave and pa triotie tho he may be, may deeply regret being taken by national emergency from his home and his work in life to fill the part of sol- dier. But does he not in his heart feel wholesome envy for the veteran who won honor in the Civil war? Does he not feel wholesome envy for every man who showed the best and highest qualities in times that tested character as with fire?
 In the trials and dangers that the soldier of today may be called upon to face let him remember that there will be a tomorrow. Not only will the men who shall go into the na- tional Army be the ones most hon. ored in war, but the veterans of this struggle will be the elect and the respected in the years of peace.

 Germany, realizing the danger Of the air campaign, already IS rapidly building airplanes to fight the com ing fleets. The element of speed, therefore is foremost in building the American fleet. This feature was emphasized today in state ment by Howard k. Coffin, chair man of the aircraft production board of the council of national de- fense.
 "The program must be carried out with promptness equal to that dis played by Congress in passing the measure, he said.
