READING FOR THE SOLDIERS.

"Clp as well as knit is the request Of the army
for the soldier boys Anything in the way of newspaper
clippings, OF still better whole newspapers magazines
would be than welcome in the camps particularly
in France
Nothing would do homesick soldier any more good
than to be made regular recipient of this home news
paper If you can't afford to subscribe for him, roll up
back numbers of the paper and send them to him. If you
did feel like putting him the list he would bless YOU
Much is said about the need for keeping our soldier
boys away from the temptations of army life One of the
greatest causes of vice is unoccuped mind If the
army lines we'll supplied with where there is
plenty of interesting reading matter, great many idle
hours will be pleasantly filled The fellow who quietly
reading the home paper American magazine is not
chasing around the outskirts of the camp looking for
trouble.
There isn't any possibility of getting too much of this
stuff The home paper will be read by soldiers who
from many miles distant and know nothing of the place
where it is published But anything American will look
good to them. Our popular magazines will be thumbed
until they are reduced to rags
Arrangements will be made for forwarding to the SOL
ders large quantities of old magazines and newspapers
Let all begin to this material. 1t will all be
needed 1t will take but few moments of time and bit
of postage to get it the Let not begrudge this
bit of friendly cooperation with boys, who CIV
ing much to their country and who need all the good
cheer that the home folks can send them.

cling many fellows to going to war.
This war is the greatest experience Of human history
Nothing approaching it has been known. All the
daring and chivay of the ancient and medieval world are
being reproduced The greatest mechanical and organza

the greatest novels dramas and poetry After fellow
has been through it( ordinary life will seem as dull as

1t is wonder that men of an adventurous tempera
ment feel attracted by the stir and sweep Of it, They
may dread danger and suffering. Yet young fellow
with spirit and patriotism must feel desire to take
hold and help He is like the vlager who to every
fire and takes hold with will to property and life
There may be danger from falling walls and people often
get hurt at fires. But there plenty of men who enjoy
fire fighting and peril could keep them away when
the alarm bell rings
1t is fortunate for the world that many have
this disregard of death and danger this willingness to
take part in intense and perlous experience If
all sober and calculating and prudent and only took hold
of things that safe and peaceabe much of the worlds

THE BIG POTATO CROP.

The people may well repoice the showing in the
governments August crop report of the big potato crop
An indicated yield Of white potatoes nearly 80 per cent
above the average and Of sweet of 40 per cent above
is a triumph for food production.
This result, assuming the crop comes through
without rot blight has been accomplished by splendid
cooperation the part of millions of people The big
farmers have produced their bonanza basis with great
rolling titled by modern machinery and gangs of
humble people, who have raised infinite number of
little crops in back yards and lawns, the only equipment
after blowing being the old rusty hoe and watering pot
to spray bugs with.
Also good work has been done in the lawns of many
handsome estates where ourishng fields of tubers have
been substituted for the usual silky lawns Towering
shrubbery Thousands of public buildings have had this
year the novel setting of a luXurant crop.
AS potatoes perishable, the people will do we'll to
make free of them through the fall In the hands of
skilled cook they can be made most appetzing. Many
wOrkngmen's families have made them the backbone of
the pantry since meat became high. Germany, with
her wonderful efficiency is fighting largely potato

People often make the mistake of buying potato sup

sheds where they rot There is something mysterious

have been stripped of timber 1t is said that ties
on the French and Italian railroads have not been laid
in the last two years. Owing to the destruction of build

the methods of those who would compete with American
exporting producers and in every possible way to assist
these producers in their foreign trade.
