DOING CONCEIVABLE WORK

Colored Citizens of Alexandria En-
titled to Much Praise for Efforts
Put Forth to Entertain Soldiers of
Their Race. +,
The Soldiers Service Association
held their first of series Of Sunday
community open-air services at the
southeast corner of North Alfred and
Princess streets Sunday evening at
$50 o'clock. 4.
Prof. George w. Cook, secretary OF
Howard University, made an address
that was frequently punctuated with
applause. Upon asserting that, as
there are people as good and better;
why should the Germans seek to domi-
nate and rule the world?" and mo
nation that will shell hospitals is TT
to rule the world" brought forth ap-
plause that proved that every listener
was a disciple of fright is right"
Upon being requested, Capt. Spin
garn was induced to leave the audi
ence and he gave many references Of
interest in relation to the loyalty of
negro citizens and soldiers. Capt.
Spingarn is the brother of Maj. Joel Z.
spingarn, who started the movement
for a negro camp. Maj. Spingarn,
with Prof. Cook, Kelly Miller, dean
of Howard University, and Du Boise,
editor of the Crisis, were responsible
for the movement that created Camp
De Moines.
Rev. j. E. Peterkin opened the SER
vices with prayer and Meade's Chapel
choir rendered patriotic songs.
The S. S. A. is seeking new mem
bers to join them and proposes to

BUCHANAN STATUE SITE
Voted by Senate 81 to II; q Disloyal
President. Saws Lodge.

President, Says Lodge.
The Senate yesterday ended the
controversy in Congress over the cree.
!. ton of statue of President Jane:
+ Buchanan, in Meridian Hill Park, BY
voting in favor gof The project, 81 tt
IL. AS the resolution authorizing thu
statue already has.passed the House
the signature of the President is al
that is necessary to make the actor
final.
Provision for the statue was made
by Mrs. Harriet Lane Johnston, Blu
chanan,,s niece and one-time mistress
OF the White House, in her will. Mrs
Johnston bequeathed 100000 for the
purpose, contingent upon authorize
ton by Congress of site upon pub.
lie ground. This site, m Meridian Hill
Park, and the design for the memorial
already have been approved by the
fine arts commission.
Senator Lodge led the final attack
to prevent congressional authorization
of a site for the statue. He charac-
terized Buchanan as weak, timid, stub
born, indecisive, vacillating and dis
loyal, adhering neither to one cause
nor the ether in the crisis that con-
fronted him as President on the eve
of the civil war. Senator Knox, of
Pennsylvania, Buchanan's own state.
defended the fifteenth President. Then
Senator McCumber waved the "bloody
shirt" Senator Lenroot denounced
Buchanan and all his works. Senator
Knute Nelson, a veteran Of the civil
war, sought to pour oil over the trou-
bled waters, and Senator Gallinger,
Republican leader, urged authorization
of the statue. The eleven who finally
voted against the project were Sena-
tors Dillingham;, Kenyon, Lenroot,
Lodge, McCumber, Norris, Smoot,
stcrling,I Townsend and Watson, Re
publicans, and Hitchcock, Democrat.

One CT the biggest jobs Of the
U. S. Railroad Administration has
been to make ore freight car carry
as much freight as was formerly car
ried by two. This IS being, accom-
plished BY. heavier loading and quick
er unloading upon arrival at desti-
nation. In the Fertilizer. INDUSTRY
for instance, the average carload
formerly was 21.31 tons, Through
strenuous efforts average during
the past year was raised TO S0.02 tons.

Manufacturers willingly cooperate
in this movement, oven though it
means added Inconvenience for them.
The chief difficulty comes from the
local dealer and small purchaser who
demand their tless-than-carload orders
sent on short notice :
Local dealers, agents, farmers. and
others must realize the necessity OF
placing orders early 50 as to allow
time for grouping and making up full
carloads.

Each Hen Should Produce
Ten Dozen Eggs Per Year.

The average novince can reasonably
expect to get an average Of at least
ten dozen eggs per hen per year from
his small flock in the back yard. On
the basis Of two hens to each member
Of the family. according to the depart
ment Of agriculture, this will give 20
dozen eggs in year to each person.
which amount Is about halfway be-
tween the general average Of farm and
city consumption. No back yard poul-
try keeper should be satisfied with less
than this. Every back yard poultry
keeper should try to get as much more
as possible.
To provide an egg a day for each
person, two hens would have to lay
1873 eggs each per year. This is by no
means an impossible average for small
focks. 1t Is perhaps not too much to
say that in cases where the person at
tending the flock is practically ION
the job" all the time, that Is, in posi-
ton to look after the wants Of the
birds three or more times a day, an
average Of better than 13 dozen eggs
per hen can easily be secured, II the
hens are mature and in good condition
at the start, and have the vitality to
carry them through q year Of heavy
laying.

drainage. and where the trees are not
too thick. for good circulation Of air

might come crashing down on your
tent and seriously injure the occupants.
