FREE" SEEDS

A great rush of Tribune readers
hurry the big sack of government
seeds that were offered free, and as
4 result radlshes and cucumbers real
ly ought to be as plentiful as fifty
dollar bills in the district.
The Tribune hates each year to
be made an accessory in this disgust
ing waste of the peoples money, and
hopes some day to see Congress
with enough decency to vote down
this petty graft.
The following from the New York
Sun tells where the seeds come from
Many persons who have received
free seeds from congressman have
believed that the government grew
'em, perhaps in the botanical gar
dens in Washington, but not so. 1t
buys 'em, pays money for them.
In the last year-floral, not fiscal
year the department of agriculture
bought 907,471 " pounds of vege-
table seed for SOS, 52S.57. 1t may be
said without fear of successful con-
tradiction that the odd half-pound
was used with successful results
Flower seeds-you remember the Els
chscholtzia and the Gypsophila and
the Schizanthus that you get by the
mail--cost the government SO, 52S
Lettuce was the big plunge in vege-
tables; 1925 pounds of seed
bought in California, cost $24,985
Onion seed also from California, ran
up to $15,149. The Rocky Ford
growers sold about 10000 bushels OF
muskmelon seed to Uncle Sam al
about IA cents bushel. Most of the
beet seed distributed among the
people came from England and Fran.
ce. Connecticut and Michigan con-
tributed the peas at about $2.35 a
bushel. Nothing was bought in New
York and New Jersey except tomato
seed The seeds of the tall nastur-
tium, the flowers which make de-
lightful sandwiches for Thursday
afternoon euchre parties, come from
Enkhuisen, Holland, and Langport
England.

from these officers some compliment

NEW DRAFT PLAN WILL
SIMPLIFY THE WORK


Washington. Oct. 22.-Nine mill
ion men, still subject to army draft,
will be divided into i've classes and
called according to class.
Provost Marshal General Crowder
announced this Saturday, pointing
out that economic considerations will
govern the new system of selection
and that those least available either
for industrial or dependency reasons,
will be the last called.
The system is designed to get the
BEST military material first and to
allow the man himself to establish
his own economic position. Each man
win be allowed seven days in which
to answer a QUESTIONABLE as to his
Industrial status and the dependency
OF any relatives.
The exact time of sending out this
QUESTIONABLE, or just what questions
is will include, are still under discus
sion.
The classes In general will be d.
vided about thus:
Glass one-Bachelors without de-
Dendents; men with self-supporting
wives. and any other with no claims
Of dependency.

PRAISE FOR THE TROOPS
OF THE NORTHWEST

On Wednesday. October IS, all of
the soldiers stationed at Camp Greene
paraded the streets of Charlotte, and
in commenting upbn the parade the
Observer Of that city gives the follow
ing praise to "the boys" of the north
west:
For several hours yesterday after
noon the streets OF Charlotte re-
sounded to the rhythmic tread of
thousands of the finest soldiers in
the world and the air was vibrant
with martial music. It was the finest
and most inspiring military sight
known in the history of the state,
and 1t aroused the latent pride of
our people to an enthusiastic admir-
alton for our soldiery. It was a day
of waving flags and cheering multi
tudes for the lengths OF the parade
streets were packed to the curb
with interested spectators. II seemed
as If ali of Charlotte had turned
out-and indeed 1t had. for there
was a total suspension OF business
and the home crowd was augmented
by hundreds from neighboring COM
munities. The parade. made deep
impression upon the people who, for
the first time, we're given oppor-
tunity for visible manifestation Of the
wonders this country is doing in
the organizing of an army that in
efficiency and personnel has no match
in the world Admiration for the
excellent results of the training the
men have undergone and have been
responsive to was partly lost in adj
miration for the splendid physique
Of these men from the Northwest
As body they present a splendid
aggregation of physical manhood.
Tall of stature ON the average, they
are strong OF muscle. bright OF eye
and In the pink OF perfection"

SOLDIERS BUY BONDS.

Uncle Sans soldiers are not only
willing to fight for the preservation
of their beloved land but they are
giving freely OF their money that
this war may be carried to victory
for the United States and her allied
nations of Europe. From every can
Torment comes the report of liberal
purchases of Liberty bonds by the
officers and privates. The boys of
Idaho and other northwestern states
who are stationed at Camp Greene,
had purchased bonds to the amount
OF $1,O26,75O up TO last Saturday.
This is at the rate of $3.50 per
capita for the men at that Camp,
which is certainly splendid show
ing, and should cause deep blush
of shame to come over some of thhe
men at home, who are amply able
to purchase $1,000 bonds, but who
have refused TO even take a $50
bond.
