InfantlIe Paralysis.

NEW YORK, June $50 thorough
has been the present preventive sys.
tenn against infantile paralysis since
last summers epidemic, there will be
no outbreak here this year, Health
Commissioner Emenson told members
of the Am erican Medical association
here.
Environment, Dr.. Emerson said,
plays no part in transmitting the dis.
ease. The disease is spread only by
personal contact, he said. Unclean
surroundings, dirt, bad air have moth,
ing to do with it. Suspicious cases
this year will be quarantined as
stringently as scarlet fever.

Lost Her Boomers.

DENVER, Colo, June 9.-If she
wasn't daughter of Neptune, she
was near relative, anyway. And
she went Annette Kellerman one
better when it came to bathing suits.
Her 1917 model boomers was sus.
pended around her supple waist with
single strand of rubber.
Perhaps it is the war, responsible
for the poor quality of the rubber.
Or maybe it was the vigor of her
perfect 'jack-knife" dive.
But they rose gracefully from the
springboard at Berkeley Lakeland
hit the water separately.
A youth with glasses rescued the
er-the rest of her suit while hun
dred other bathers cheered.

Sweetness Of Character.

The sweetness of character which
was his through everything. helped to
bring to his side even the bitterest
enemies in congress after their bat
ties had been fought and 1t was not
surprising to see him going down the

whom heNhad been contesting in leg1s-

never lost his temper.

plants are especially desirable and
they may be brought to the blooming
period by the time it is warm enough
to plant them with safety in the gar
den. If the plants are not to be
trained, but allowed to lie on the
ground, they should be set about four
feet apart each way. If trimmed and
tied to stakes they may be planted in
rows three feet apart and 10 inches
apart in the row.
Eggplant is started and handled in
the same way as the tomato. 1t is,
perhaps, less widely known, but is
rapidly becoming a popular vegetable.
The soil best adapted for it's produc-
ton is a fine, rich sandy loan, well
drained. The plants should be set in
rows three feet apart, and two feet
apart in the row.. Free cultivation is
desirable and the plants should be
kept growing rapidly. On the other
hand, many growers believe that
fresh stable manure should not be
used for eggplants, and that the land
should not contain unfermented veg
etable matter to any large extent. A
dozen good, healthy plants should sup
ply enough for the average-sized fam
lily throughout the season.

REDUCTION IN LIVING COSTS
Garden Is Quickest and Best Means OF
Lessening Expenses and Relieves
Food Shortage.

The garden is the quickest and best
means of reducing the cost Of living.
Present food prices can best be re-
duced by growing a new supply of
food. 1t will take several months to
produce a surplus of many food prod
ucts such as meat, potatoes and -four.
Furthermore, the effect of this surplus
on the price which the has
to pay is doubtful.
BY planting a garden the consumer
can relieve the food shortage directly
in a few weeks. He can substitute his
fresh garden vegetables for canned
products and for many of the high
priced staples.

BIG MISTAKE WITH HARNESS
Manure-Ammonia Destroys
Life Of Leather.

A mistake that is often made is that
Of hanging harness over or near ma
nure. The ammonia rising from the
manure sooner or later destroys the
life of the leather. Sometimes, too,
harness not used In the winter is
thrown into a corner, perhaps on the
ground, and left there until spring. No
manufacturer can turn out leather
goods and stitching that will stand
such neglect. If harness is cleaned
and oiled at no othor time, it should
at least be so treated in the fall, then
hung in a dry place when not in use.

IMMENSE DEMAND FOR FOOD
Should Stimulate Farmers to
Their Beat Efforts.

There appears to be a worldwide
demand for foodstuffs. Prices for all
staple crops are high and promise to
continue above the average level for a
year or more. The promise of profits
from growing farm products was never
stronger than at present.
The worlds needs and the possible
profits, together, should stimulate
farmers to their best effort in produc-
ton. No chances that can be avoided
should be taken on securing good
crops.

tomatoes and eggplant.
Sweet corn, to be at its best, should
be eaten within a few hours after it is
picked, for its sugar content disap-
pears very rapidly after it is removed
from the garden. For this reason and
because of its very general popularity,
it is an excellent vegetable to grow
in the home garden. 1t should be

Another favorite vegetable is the

Be Drafted From Territory

Between 40 and so applicants at the
office OF Maj. Charles 8. Lincoln, de.
partment headquarters, for admission
to the reserve officers training camp
to be established in this territory,
was the response up to noon today
by Honolulu men to this new gate
way to army service.
News Of the war departments in
tention to establish q training camp
for Hawaii similar to those on the
mainland, printed in the Star-Bulle
tins second edition yesterday after
noon shortly after the receipt of the
cable from Washington, has caused
widespread interest. z.
Maj. Lincoln made It plain today
that all applications are to be stand
ardized and placed on an equal basis.
He said that haste to get applications
filed is not necessary, and that al:
applications win have to be submitted
on regular blanks.
These blanks have been ordered
and will be ready for distribution. In
a few days. The fact that they are
ready VIII be announced through the
press, and the department will also
make a general statement covering
the camp in detail and the work It
will entail. 1t is the wish of the
department to keep applicants from
rushing into the camp without thor.
ough understanding Of 1t.
At noon today officers of the Ha-
waiian department, including Col. j.
n. McRae, adjutanI general; Mai.
Lincoln, in charge of reserve corps
work; Col. Richmond McA. Schofield,
department quartermaster, and others
gathered with Brig-Gen. Charles G..

camp. 49, 49,. &
By early next week the plans for
the buildings viii probably be ready
for announcement. H. - -
Possibility that the establishment
of training camp here for 100 Of
ficers means that q regiment of men
will be formed from those drafted
here Is admitted by department Of
dcers, though they refuse to hazard
any guesses regarding It.
It is held that after a certain mum.
Der of ineligibles have been rejected
from the camp there will remain prac.
ticaIly enough officers to govern q
regiment. All left overs from the
draft would be used to till up the
guard. No word regarding this has
been received, however =
