The $1,375 is the net return for

on the farm and fed to the hogs was
charged to the hogs at the market
price at the time. The corn was
charged at SIS an acre, altho it was
not marketable but still made pork.
The pigs were narrowed between
April Is and May Is, and were mar
keted during november. One hun

raised, which yielded net return

HOMES FOR WAR WORKERS
To Speed up Work of Housing EN-
ployes Government Used Cornell
Wood Board

Laborers in munition plants and
ship yards, engaged in Government
work, are to be comfortably housed.
Congress has set aside sum of $780,
100000 with which to speed up the
building program necessary for the
welfare Of our war workers.
Contractors and builders found, in
erecting barracks and quarters d the
various cantonments and training sta
tions, that the chief problem was one
Of time and labor. The necessity for
quickly finishing the walls and ceilings
which would assure home comforts,
led to the use of millions Of square
feet Of Cornell Wood Board.
Having proved its economy and eff
iciency in the above mentioned In
stances, the government is today speci-
flying this ideal interior finish for the
homes Of war workers.

 Two hundred coast guards station ed here have been thrown in cor don about the plant at Morgan and are barring all persons save rescu- ers from entering the danger zone.
 Flames Spread.
 The flames have spread from what is known as Unit 61- to unit 62, and both of these units appear doomed.
 Units 73 and 70 are in danger.
 Some headway has been made in fighting the fires. despite the dan ger in approaching the burning buildings.
 The plant covers large area, which is approximately four miles long and two miles wide, with many buildings in which, 1t Is said. 1000 persons, working in three shifts, are usually employed. <.
 Girls Are Employed.
 Women and girls work on the day shift and it is thought none of them were at the plant tonight.
 A serious fire occurred at the Gil- lespie plant in Morgan. known as the Oliver plant. last Saturday, but the workers had plenty of time in which to escape.
 In addition to fire apparatus sent to tonights fire from surrounding towns, various manufacturing con- cerns in the vicinity sent their own fir. companies.
 Eight bodies were placed today in the morgue at South Amboy and ctkers were being removed from the plant shortly before midnight.
 |. lis believed that several more men were in the building when the original explosion occurred and that these were blown to atoms.
 Among those reported to have been killed was Arthur H. Stanton. of Perth Amboy. superintendent of the unit in which the first explosion oc- cured.
 The report of his death has not Ieen confirmed.
 The plant, which is being operat- cd for the government by the Giles pie company, employees several thou sand men and women. working in three shifts. but officials said that tonight there were only about five hundred men in the plant when the explosion occurred.
 The plant was ngaged in loading high explosive shells. With the first explosion. government officials tele- phcned to nearby camps for soldiers to serve as guards and several hum dred, with a detachment of coast guards were rushed to Morgan.
 The first blast was terrific. It shattered nearly all the glass in South Amboy. one and one half miles away and was felt for radius Of nearly ten miles.
