In these war days the farm has
about equal Importance with the
battlefield. and as many eyes scan

watch the casualty reports. A word
on the farm problem from Charles
: Barrett. one of the leading agri-
cultural authorities of the nation.
is therefore of special interest.
KEEPING FARMERS ON THE
FARMS.
BY Charles =. Barrett.
President Farmers Union of
America.
The American people are much
stirred up just now about the keep
ing of enough people on the farms
to feed the nation. and there is
much searching for ways and means
as 10 the best means TO use.
Few seem 10 grasp the real truth.
If the farm population is decreasing
relatively 10 the rest Of the popula-
ton it is because the farms are not
properly keeping the farmers.
There will never be any trouble
about keeping any number of farm
ers on the farm as long as the farms
are keeping the farmers. But when
farmers cannot make a decent liv-
ing. when they see the stuff that
they sell for 81 passing into the
hands OF the consumer at 50. and
when they see other classes pros
pering while they are not. then all
the wisdom OF Solomon or strength
of Samson cannot keep them on
the farms-they are going 10 move.
So our friends in the cities need
10 get busy. And one Of the first
things they must learn is 10 prop
erly place the farmer. Heretofore
the farmer has been 10 the city
dweller merely as the OK that tread

TENDERFooT is REAL SCOUT.

A tenderfoot may not be able to go
out into the woods after a rain and
build a fire, and his fapjacks may be
black on the outside and raw in the
middle, and when he cooks bacon he
may finish with a fryingpan full Of
burnt grease, wi tn just a speck here
and there to represent his breakfast,
but all the same the only difference
between him and even the senior pa
troll leader is growth.
A little seeding just Matched out of

ment ahead of it, nevertheless it's oak

HOW SCOUTS CAN HELP NATION.

Offer your services to some gardener
as a patrol. He will be glad to pay
you for your labor. Make his crop
the best in your neighborhood. Show
the world that boy scouts can rise to
any emergency. No cutters need ap-
ply.
Plant a garden at home. No matter
how small the space. Forego the flow
er garden this season. Plant vege-
tables. If you have no garden use a
window box. You will be delighted
with the results, no matter how small
the crop. Do it now.
Offer your services to your teacher
to help in securing the necessary In
formation to establish school and
home gardens. Don't be Stacker.
Ask your city officials to organize to
help conserve the food supply of our
country. Have them offer vacant
space for cultivation. Show your pa
triotism. Arouse theirs.

Rocky Mount Too Far North.

Rocky Mount Major-General Wood
has written the secretary of the local
chamber Of commerce to the effect
that the 1900 acre tract offered by
Rocky Mount for a cantonment camp
for the training of units of the selec-
tive draft army, that this tract is out
side of the prescribed area laid off for
the training camp to be established
somewhere in North Carolina. The
general said that Rocky Mount was
too far north for the camp and was
outside of the territory which the
camp will cover and will come under
the territory allotted to the Peters
burg, Va, camp.

PLAN TWO MILLION GARDENS

Two million home gardens, cultivat-
ed under the auspices of the Boy
Scouts of America, are going to prove
Invaluable to the United States during
the war period and help to end the high
price of food here, according to o. H.
Benson Of the United States Depart
ment Of Agriculture.
Mr.. Benson, who is in charge of the
governments agricultural extension
work, recently conferred with scout Off
Gals OF the Boy Scouts of America at
their headquarters, in New York, on
the plans for mobilizing the 275,OOO
scouts and officers for food production.
He said the backyard gardening cam
paign is sweeping the nation and that
the movement to a great extent will
prove the solution of the food problem
that now confronts this country.
Ii these new resources are properly
conserved, Mr.. Benson says, they will
furnish a reserve food supply that will
be invaluable to the country in it's pros
ecution of the war.
This Boy Scout movement alone
means more than 100000 new gar
dens throughout the country this
spring." said Mr.. Benson. 'In addition
to raising a garden himself, each scout
is pledged to persuade nine other per-
sons, not scouts, to raise gardens. That
makes ten gardens per scotland
there are 10000 scouts, not counting
the adults in the organization. These
millions of gardens will furnish an adj
ditfon to the food supply which the ma
ton will appreciate more next fall than
it does now"

Fondant Dipped Strawberries
These delicious CONNECTIONS sell for
dollar a pound and may be made very
cheaply at home. Prepare the fond
ant by boiling sugar and water to-
gether with a little cream of tartar
or a tablespoonful of corn strip to
keep the strip from sugaring. Melt
the fondant over hot water and dip
the berries into it, draining them on
waxed paper. These delicious candies
must be eaten the same day or they
will spoil.

SCOUT TRAINING DOES WORK.

Major General Hugh L. Scott, chief
of staff of the United States army, has
written from the war Office in Wash
ington to the national headquarters Of
the Boy Scouts Of America, saying:
'"The necessary elementary instruction
that every young American should
have in order to be prepared to play
his part in the national defense, may
be obtained by his work in the Boy
Scouts of America"
General Scott has made a thorough
study of the methods of boy training
followed by the Boy Scouts Of
America.

mention only the most glazing ones.
Many of these no doubt each reader
will refuse to admit are found in her
kitchen, but perhaps some equally as
bad have not been mentioned.
: We waste carloads of food in pre-
pairing more than is needed and not in
diligently making over dishes. Made
over dishes are never highly gratifying
and it is much wiser to have no left
overs to dispose of or make more ex-
pensive by the addition Of costly food
to utilize the leftover.
The average woman all over the
country is willing to conform to the re-
quest to have but three courses at din
ner even when entertaining. Little
dabs of food served in eight or ten
courses either means a vast amount
of waste or, fully as important, a human
engine clogged by too much fuel to dis
pose of, causing disease and often sud-
den death.
Fat from meat, suet and drippings
fat from soups are wastefully thrown
away and fresh lard, oils and fats are
used for frying. When butter is 40 to
80 cents pound it should not be men,
toned as a frying fat even in the
homes able to buy it. 1t matters not
whether we are financially able to
stand the waste, somebody is going
hungry because Of our extravaganza.
The preparing of vegetables may
mean a great waste; careless peeling
of potatoes often done in haste at
late hour when time is more important
than the potato, is another great leak
which should be watched. In many
homes potatoes are not peeled at all,
and everybody seems to be perfectly
happy eating the wholesome vegetable
with all it's vegetable acids and min
eral salts left in it.
Lack Of forethought Is another
source of wastefulness. Planning meals
days in advance will eliminate a large
expense. It only needs good trial to
prove the advantage.
