HOME SCHOOL
Z GARDEN

Lincoln, Jan. N.-(Speeial. Some
2,222 Nebraska boys and girls took
part in home-school garden clubs con-
Quoted by the agricultural extension
service of the University of Nebraska
in cooperation with the United
States Department OF Agriculture,
with schools, and with the children's
own parents. This work was carried
on in twenty-five towns in 1916.
As result OF this work l,259
back yards of the state produced a
garden, and 345 vacant lots that for
merly grew nothing but weeds sup
piled vegetables for the table. One
hundred and seventy persons acted as
local leaders, and 9,37l children and
adults received instruction in garden
ing and canning as result of the 387
demonstrations held. Also $50 garden
club picnics were held, the total at
tendance being SIP.
a Receipts Good.
Of the 2,222 children who started
the work, LAOS, or 63 per cent, had
determination enough to complete the
job, even to the last detail of sub
hitting a written report and hnan-
cial report showing profit or loss for
the year. The total receipts from the
kiddies' gardens in twenty-four towns
was $ll,745.40, in addition to $l,7Sl.l3
worth of canned products, making a
total income of $l3,536.53.
A profit of almost $500 an acre, or
$l13 per 100 square feet. was the
average profit made by children whose
financial statement showed balances
on the right side of the ledger.
Most Of the towns in which garden
club work was carried on offered
school credit, and as result zoos
boys and girls received recognition i'll
the school room for their work. The
workers in charge of the project try
to interest both teachers and parents
in the work, and much of the work
is done in the home. This branch of
extension service work has been de-
scribed as the connecting link" be-
tween home and school.
Plans are being made to cooperate
with additional towns desiring to take
up the work this year.

100 U-BOAT CHASERS
TO BE CONSTRUCTED
Government Provides for Immediate
Building Of High Speed Patrol
Boats.

Washington, March 14.-Prelimin.
airy steps have been taken by the
Navy department toward contracting
for the quick construction of 100 or
more high speed coast patrol boats
OF a new type for scouting against
submarines. At a conference in which
q score of builders were represented,
assurances were given that deliver
ies could be begun within four
months.
There was no announcement, but
1t is understood contracts will be-
awarded shortly.
Plans prepared for the patrol boats
call for a craft of, 10 feet long pro-
PEELED by powerful steam engines.
Details of their armament and equip
ment now are being worked out, but
probably will not be made public.
They will be more seaworthy and.
have a much larger cruising radius
than the standard submarine chas-
or 185-foot gasoline motor boat.
Some of the companies represented
IN yesterdays conference have turned,
out large numbers Of "chasers" for
the British government.

GERARD REACHES HOME SOIL
AMBASSADOR LANDS IN FLORIDA
WITH ENTIRE PARTY.
Says He Has No knowledge Of Ger.
man Plot to Align Mexico and
Japan Against U. S.

Key West, Fla, March 14.-James
W. Gerard, former ambassador to
Berlin, is devoutly rejoicing in once
more treading United States soil. 1t
has been a long, long way from Berlin
to Washington-nearly 5000 miles on
the route %traversed by the. former en-
voy-and until the very last moment
it was a journey filled with apprehen-
sion; a journey that came after weary
ing days Of long drawn out tension in
Berlin.
The ambassador and his embassy
party arrived here from Havana on
the steamship Governor Cobb, and
after a brief rest took a train for
Washington.
Knows Nothing Of Conspiracy.
The only public expression which
the former ambassador permitted HIM
self to make on his arrival here was
that he had nj knowledge Of Foreign
Secretary Zimmerman's plot to align
Germany with Mexico and Japan until
word of that conspiracy reached the
Infanta Isabel by wireless as she was
en- route from Corunna, Spain, to Ha-
vana.
From others of the ambassadorial
party, however, it was learned that the
ambassador months ago advised the
United States government of Ger
many's intrigues in Mexico.

CHINESE BREAK is EXPECTED
Both Houses Vote for Rupture With
Germany.

Picking, March 13.-The Senate has
approved the severance of relations
with Germany by a vote Of 1852 to 81.
1t Is expected that the government
will take action to this end immedf-
ately. The House previously has ap-
proved. the projected break by a vote
of 131 to 81.
After the House had approved tho
severance of relations, the German
minister presented a note to the for.
eign office Offering to negotiate for the
protection of Chinese lives and prop
erty in the submarine zone.
In official circles it is believed the
legation hoped through the note to
postpone the break. 1t had no infu.
ence on the cabinet and the Senate.

AMERICAN FEDERATION AND RAIL
BROTHERHOODS VIRTUALLY
DECLARE FOR UNIVERSAL
MILITARY SERVICE.
OBLIGATION OF SERVICE
IN WAR Time SET FORTH
Subscription to Doctrine Announced in
PamphIet-Gompers As Member
Of Defense Council to Sit With
Presidents Cabinet and
Capitalists.

Washington, March 14.-Organized
labor of America has virtually de-
clared for universal military service.
The doctrine has been formally sub.
scribed to not only by the 3,000,O 900
members of the American Federation
of Labor, but by the 100000 or more
members of the four big brotherhoods
of railway employees.
Announced In Pamphlet.
Subscription to the doctrine was an
nounced in a 2,400-word pamphlet is
sued by the labor council which con-
cluded a day and a half session here
under President Samuel Gompers.
The big, significant phase of the
labor councils action, it was pointed
out by n of the highest authorities
In planning for national defense, is the
fact that Gompers is a member of the
official national defense council and
as such sits in conference with mem
bers Of President Wilson's cabinet
and the nations biggest capitalists
when that body meets.
"Speak for Millions"
I'VE speak for millions of Ameri-
cans" the pronouncement begins.
I'VE are not a sect. We are not a
party. We represent the organiza-
tons held together by the pressure of
u common needs. We represent the
part of the nation closest to the fun
damentals of life. The power and use
OF industrial tools is greater than the
tools Of war, and will in time super
sede engines of destruction. A world
war is on. Whether we approve it or
not we must recognize that var is a
situation with which we must reckon"
Problems Different.
The pamphlet then goes on to point
out that new methods and tactics of
modern war present problems vastly
different from those of past wars.
I'm no previous war;" reads a por-
ton, has the organized labor move
ment taken a directing part.
Labor has now reached an under.
standing of its rights, of it's power and
. and must make
definite constructive proposals."
Obligation of Service.
Labor demands, it is stated, the
right In war times to be the recog.
nized defender of wage
against the same forces that in pre-.
vious wars have made national neces.
sity an excuse for ruthless methods.
Heretofore. it is declared, labor has
borne. the brunt of wars terrors and
deprivations.
Industrial justice is the right Of
those living within our country" the
statement continues. within this
right there is associated obligation.
In war time obligation takes the
form of service in defense of the Re.
public against enemies"
