is necessary to state that few things will be of more service and benetit to the soldiers than the use of a library while at training camp.
 The government does not supply these libraries because the. nation is engaged in d war in which Athe entire energy of the government is needed for the actual conflict. Those who stay at home want to take as big a part as possible in this war If they cannot go U fight, they insist on doing all they can to help the government win battles. Help in this war is not only q duty, but a, patriotic opportunity.
 By the present plan, no money for camp library purposes is being solicited bv any orga nization other than the American Library association. With t.4s sl.UUJ, Gut war fund, the Library association will provide a complete li- brarv system comprising national headquarters, branch headquarters in important centers throughout the Unit ed States. and active libraries in all places where soldiers and sailors are assembled.

SHIP CATTLE SOUTH
 T0 SAVE INDUSTRY
(From the Baltimore sum


 To save the beef industry of this country from a rapid and serious de cline incident to the high cost of grains and feed, the federal govern ment is turning to the south to save the day. c. J. Goodell of the bureau of animal industry of the United States department of agriculture. has been assigned to the southeast and will have other assistance in an effort to move cattle out of the range regions of the west to the semi range regions of the south.
 Western growers with thousands of cattle have been wiring government authorities about possibilities of leas- ing pasture lands in the south. They are especially interested in cutover pine lands about which they have heard so much and about the big acreage of velvet beans in the south this year.
 Government agents in the west are getting a line on live stock that can be bought. These they are grading according to quality, so that buyer in the south can order by mail with assurance of getting what the gov ernment authorities represent the ani- mals to be.
 MI NooueH mas NlSlleu SoiHe ol the sections of the cutover pine land country and has found farmers and land holders ready to eo-operate. One farmer in South Georgia said that he was prepared to take care of 25,000 beef cattle.
 While it is hoped that some way may be found to move cattle in whole sale trainload quantities to the south east, which western cattlemen are willing to do, the main drive now will be to round up as many heifers or mature cows as the south will absorb and get into this region before the slaughter house gets them.

of the rooms and showed us how to
Plant the seeds. He told us about the
size of the beds and how to mix the
fertilizer and plant the seeds.
After two days, began to cultivate
the ground My garden is on Young
street, opposite the Japanese school
The soil in my garden is now very
soft. After thoroughly mixing the soil,
asked the principal for some bean,
beet, radish, carrot and lettuce seeds.
began to plant it on January IL. Be-
fore began to plant the seeds, l
mixed in some fertilizer with the
brown soil. Within one week the
beans, beets and radish began to
sprout Later, the carrots and lettuce
came up. After two or three weeks
the plants were from one to five
inches high. The weather last week
was very rainy and it washed away
some of my plants so that had to re-
plant. There are no insects to bother
my plants yet.
