HELPING IN PREPAREDNESS

Mr.. T. ]. M. DAILY, superintendent Of
the Gulf Compress here, is aiding the
food preparedness campaign material
ly, having planted fourth of an acre
garden on the compress grounds. Mr.
Daily has planted tomatoes, canta-
loupes, cucumbers, radishes, lettuce
and bunch beans. Many of his plants
are up and growing nicely. 1t is not
too late for others to emulate Mr..
Days example.
Mr.. DAILY is also experimenting with
an 85-egg electric incubator, of his
own invention. In the bottom Of the
incubator box is an automatic electric
regulator and on the top is a pilot
light. When the temperature of the
interior of the box goes above 103 de-
grees this light globe lights itself and
automatically reduces the heat to
normal. The invention is quite an in
genious one and Mr.. Daily is hopeful
Of good success with it. The model
was made by Mr.. F. M. Taylor.
