fhe truck that will transport fnerica's army supplies is at work. Officially, it is known as Class "B Military Truck, but it's pet name tmong the army men who like 1t, IS Truck B."
 It is for use in the Quartermast- n's department only, but since this apartment has charge of the trans portation for the army, it means hat 'Truck B" delivers the goods to ,ur fighting forces. It is the heavi- sst of the quartermaster trucks. It ias a four-cylinder engine and IS .apable of carrying from three to
 Instead of waiting for railroad transportation, the Quartermaster General is detailing officers and men % drive the trucks overland. There are two reasons for this. One IS, hat it saves badly needed cargo space on the railroads; the other is hat the army officers are not only msk king a test of the trucks but test of the men who drive them.
 Trucks Travel in Fleets.
 The trucks travel in fleets. now wending their way over different arteries of traffic. The first test run was from Lima, Ohio to Baltimore. Maryland. under the supervision of men from Camps Meade and Devens, who brought twenty trucks across the country without a hitch. Not one man in the detachment had even seen one of the trucks until called on uO drive it. The officer observers who accompanied the men gave no instructions. Their idea was to see LOW a detachment of soldiers would handle the trucks when delivered in France. Another fleet is now on it's way from Chicago to Camp Dodge, Iowa. This fleet is made up of six teen trucks.
 ( Truck B's Tremendous Power.
 The tremendous power of the new trucks. army officers say, was shown by the fact that no hill was reached which they could not climb on 'rhigh.'' Only once, they say, was low gear resorted to and that was at a notorious mudhole near East Palestine. Ohio. There, the first few trucks went through on low rear. When it was found that they got through easily on "low', the others followed on second" ." In ~rossing mountains. high gear was -.sed except in rounding turns where ll-o trucks slowed down for safety.
 The entire trip of approximately s5n miles was made in a total run ming time of TT hours and fraction. The average mileage was 2 F miles a gallon. The trucks travelled at a rate of 60 miles a day. the running time being about seven miles an hour.
 Made By 146 Motor Companies. ? "Truck B" is to be the standard heavy truck of the army. It is so thoroughly standardized that, al though it is being made by 146 diff zerent motor manufacturing firms, every part of every truck, even to the nuts and bolts, is identical. It was designed by a committee of automobile engineers from many

 The motors division of the Quartermaster Generals Corps of the army has changed the system of shipment of trucks so as to cut off three-fourths of the space required on board ship. A truck, standing, usually occupies 1000 cubic feet of space. Truck B is being taken down at the ports of embarkat;on and packed so it occupies only 259 Erhie feet.

SOME GARDEN HINTS

Don't Waste the Seed-Thrift is one
of the excellent qualities fostered by
home gardens. There should, there
fore. be thrift in the use of garden
seed. This year there is a real seed
shortage so that what there is should
be made to go as far as possible.
The home gardener too often wastes
his seed by planting ii too quickly.
Such vegetables as lettuce. muskmel-
on, cucumber, kale. parsnip, yegeta-
Bile oyster and turnip require only
one-half ounce of seed in order to
plant a row 100 feet long; onion, rad
dish, spinach and carrot require one
ounce; string or lima beans, one-half
to n pint; beets, two ounces; cauli-
flower, one packet; eggplant one-third
ounce; cabbage. one-fourth ounce, If
your garden row measures more OF
less, figure accordingly, but buy only
as much seed as is necessary-and
buy it early.
Look over Your Tools-During a
certain week in March an organized
effort was made to have every farmer
in the nation inspect his machinery
and place his orders for repairs or ex-
ira parts. This was regarded as an
act of loyalty in the national effort
fnr y, yip,,p, food nrndnntinn Some
such plan should be advanced among
the home gardeners. An early inspec-
ton of tools should be made to see
that the necessary number is on hand
and that these are in good working
order. Not many tools are necessary
A hand cultivator or wheel hoe is
convenient if the garden is a large
one, but for the average back yard
garden plot only the following are
necessary: \ line such as is used by
masons, with a stake at each end
This is convenient in marking out tn,
rows. A spade or garden fork, Of
both. A rake with steel teetht. 4
trowel. A dibble. And last but no.
least an ordinary tin watering car
where pipe connections for hose are
not available.
The Gardens Alien Enemy-Any
garden this year that continues to al
low attack by insect or disease viii
be proclaimed pro-German. So buy
a spraying outfit early in the season
An ounce Of spraying prevention may
save a pound of reputation as well a:
a pound of produce. Get a hanC

can usually be conquered by Bordeau,
mixture but if something appears tina
does not yield to ordinary treatment

SAVE FOOD

Communal kitchens are being estab.

are proving successful in saving food
and fuel, according to reports to the
Department Of Commerce. An article
from a recent issue of an English
newspaper is quoted:
THE war has brought home to the
public that the communal or national
kitchen is a necessity and can he

lively short period there will probab.
ly be installed many hundreds of these
establishments throughout the conn.
try. The national kitchen was orig.
inaily intended to supply poor people

pared food at low prices, but there is
considerable prospect-certainly. in
fact-that the more prosperous will,

AMERICAN WOMEN FIRST

AT the Ministry of War, TO day. !
was told we are the first women doe
tors to be attached TO a military hos
pital,' writes DR.. Caroline Finley, di-
rector of the Woman Overseas Hos
pital. This hospital consists Of two
units and is not only financed by WON
en-, but is entirely equipped and man
aged by women. Every physician and
nurse is a woman, as are the ambu-
lance drivers, stretcher-bearers, me-
chanics and even the plumber, who
served an apprenticeship in order to
learn her trade before she left the
United States"
This Is not only the most wonder
full opportunity to serve our country, -
adds DR.. Finley, but also the first
chance of its kind to serve the cause
of women in just this way. Way back
last summer, when the French in
Washington stipulated hat if need
arose, we were to care for military
wounded, it seemed as though that
were an idle thought, and yet the first
actual work of the Woman's oversee
Hospital has been with men fresh
from the trenches. To me, it seems
a fine thing for women to work side
by side with the military surgeons, in
a strictly military hospital under the
same conditions, exposed to the same
risks and having the same criticisms
of our work as have the men. The
military discipline is good for US. /
