First Called. SIeuthhounds.

Bloodhounds were first known as
s~leuthhounds, owing to their ability to
track the deer, wild boar or the wolf.
When the wounded game broke away
and was lost, these good-nosed dogs
were used in trailing the quarry by
the blood trail, and hence they were
finally called bloodhounds.

BRINGS HOME GRIM REALITY
Soldiers Seldom Visualize Death Until
They Have Had Their Training
With the Bayonet.

Comparatively few of the men in tho
training camps have sensed the serious
ness of their job from books. writes Jo-
seph II. Odell, in the Outlook. Nor did
it come to many of them from the for
nal drills, the setting-up exercises, or
the acquisition of military terms and
habits. The reality-the grim but
thrilling reality-Of their business
came from the bayonet.
Men can stand at attention without
paying attention; they can form col.
lumns of fours automatically they can
salute as a matter of easily acquired
habit; they can learn the bugle calls by
subconscious absorption; but no man
can WELD the bayonet without visualiz-
ing death. The first and chief duty Of
the bayonet instructor IS to make men
visualize death-their own or their
foes. "You must get him before he
gets YOU; it's him or you, him or you,
him or you"
Then the CHASTITY seriousness of the
business comes over the recruit; the
dreadful alternative flashes along every
nerve, and commands the muscles Of
the eyes, the legs, and the arms as they
have never been commanded before, 1t
searches his soul and marks him as a
coward or a man; it puts deep lines on
his face and galvanizes his will; 1t
changes him almost instantaneouSly
from q civilian to soldier.

The food administration figures
show the estimated grease production
from garbage in the 90 cities investi-
gated to be 100000 pounds, or
enough to produce 100000 pounds Of
nitroglycerin, enough for the powder
charge of 100000 American three
inch shells or French 75-millimeter
shells, and fatty acids in sufficient
quantity to manufacture about 20O,-
100000 cakes of soap, weighing II
ounces each.
It is further shown that the esti-
mated fertilizer tankage produced in
the % cities amounts to 10000 tons,
which contains about 100000 pounds
of nitrogen, 100000 pounds of phos-
phate of lime and 100000 pounds Of
potash These chemicals are suffi-
cient to replace the nitrogen aud other
elements taken from the soil by 3,OOO,-
600 bushels of wheat. The estimated
present value of these quantities Of
grease and tankage, recovered from
garbage, is placed at $11, 100000.

Sudden Retreat of an Army
Is Often Reduced to Chaos
And the Resultant Disorder

Moving a great army is an affair
of timetables. There is room for only
a certain amount of men and mate
rial on the roads and railways at one
time, and every man and every
wagon above that maximum becomes
factor of confusion and retards the
movement Of the whole mass to a
dangerous degree" writes G. Ward
Price in the Century. "The sudden
retreat of an army is often reduced
to chaos, first, because a thoroughly
worked out plan of general retirement
exists but rarely in the strong-bOxes
of any general staff, and, secondly,
because in the absence of timetable
drawn up in detail and strictly en-
forced, the elementary principle of
self-preservation leads every unit of
the army to put itself on the road
just as quickly as it can get trans
portation. This is not to say that
confusion is an invariable indication

Take Tip From Old Mother
Nature When in Doubt About
Time to Plant Your Garden

(From the United States Department of
Agriculture.)
By watching the processes Of moth
er nature and taking a tip from her,
the home gardener who is not certain
when he should plant his seeds may get
some valuable information. Garden
specialists divide vegetables into two
classes - warm temperature" and
"cold temperature" vegetables. When
peach and plum trees are in blossom,
they say, it is time to SOW In the open
ground such seeds as lettuce, radish,
parsley, beets, turnips, cabbage, car
rots, peas, and onions. The wrinkled
peas should not be planted until Later,
as they are more likely to rot in cool
ground than are the smooth varieties.
When the apple blossoms fall it is
time to plant the heat-loving vege-
tables, such as cucumbers, beans,
sweet corn, pumpkin, and squash.
This is said to be an old but excellent
rule.

of personal panic; but it is Tery nat
ural, and even very proper, that every
battery commander, the director of
every military store and depot, and
the leader Of every body of troops
which is not definitely ordered to re-
main, should have the individual de-
termination that his particular COM
mand shall not fall into the hands OF
the enemy.
"The artillery officer firmly resolves
that he will save his guns at all
costs; the heads Of the supply depart
ments are in; charge OF valuable stores
which their army needs for its very
existence and which would be Of great
aid to the enemy if captured, and the
troop leader naturally argues that it
would be futile to allow his men to
be cut off when a general retreat has
been ordered. So if the organization
Of withdrawal is left to the discre-
ton Of the people involved in it, as
it has to be when the whole thing has
not been deliberately arranged before
hand, confusion is almost inevitable"

An Editors Dilemma.

The editor of the Hartford Courant
has added to his burden of cares by
starting TO worry over the question of
dress. Man, he contends, wears too
much, and calls upon some inventive
genius to simplify masculine garb in
order to save money and also time
spent in juggling buttons.
Taking an inventory of himself, the
editor discovered that before going
downtown he must put on one under
suit. two socks, two sock supporters,
one shirt, pair of trousers, pair Of
suspenders or belt, two shoes, a collar,
n necktie, vest. a coat and hat

Ever See a DinQonek2

The dingOnek is huge, unclaSSi6ed
aquatic monster, says the Wide World
Magazine. 1t resembles in many Of its
characteristics the extinct dinosaur, a
huge reptile of the Mesozoic period, fos-
siIs of which have been discovered by
paleontologistS in the sandstone strata
both of the African and American con-
tinents. 1t lives in Lake Victoria Ny
ANA and its numerous tributaries and
there is no record of the monster hav-
ing been seen in any other part OF the
world. Whether it is a descendant OF
one of the huge prehistoric saurians
that has by process of adaptation
living as it does in impenetrable re-
ciOns far away from the encrOachments
of civilized man-cOntinued with but
slight notifications through prodiglous
ages to the present time, or whether IL
is an unclassified reptile or amphlblan,
it is equally impossible to say, as no
specimen exists either of its bones or
of its skin. That this monster does ex-
ist, however, there can be no particle
of doubt, as the testimony of authori-
tatfve eyevitnesses cannot be reason
ably discredited.

FOR THE POULTRY
GROWER
seseSssesssss
(By the United States Department of Agri
culture.)

By the United States Department of Agri-
culture.)
Owners of back yards in cities and
towns are asked to do everything in
their power to help the meat and egg
supply by raising small flocks of poul-
try in back yards. Farmers are re-
Quested greatly to increase their farm
flocks of hens so that 100 on every
farm will be the average for the ma
ton.
The following statement regarding
the poultry needs is taken from the
official agricultural program for 1918
issued recently by the United States
department Of agriculture:
Poultry production should be in
creased greatly, especially in back
yards and on farms, where waste ma
terial is available and the purchase Of
expensive grains and other material is
not required.
Increased poultry production may
be attained most economically by early
Matching; by conf1ning mother hens at
least ten days after the chicks are
hatched; by reducing losses on ac-
count of rats, weasels and thieves, and
from cold, damp conditions; by thor
ough sanitation; by discouraging the
marketing of early-hatched pullets as
broilers; by eliminating non-producing
hens and keeping good layers through
at least two laying seasons; and by
the poultryman raising his own feed
as far as possible"

many and many thousands of dollars
would wander away from the turn
stiles.
The "aces" are the biggest assets the
magnates can boast of, and if you will
lamp the rosters of the sixteen major
league clubs you will find at least one
player on nearly every roster who fig
ures as the real drawing card Of the
team on the road.
= Tyrus Raymond Cobb is the greatest
drawing card in the business. He is
worth more to Detroit on the road than
all the rest of her players put together,
for the fans in rival towns go out large
ly to see Cobb, unless the Tigers are
up there fighting for pennant, and
the rabidS in small towns within easy
riding distance of the big league cities
never miss a chance to be on the job
when Cobb is billed to cavort at the
ball park. So Cobb alone is worth
thousands of dollars to Detroit at the
turnstiles in the course of a season.

foCh's Name Not TeutoniC;
Almost Rhymes With "Hush'

Numerous inquiries have been re-
ceived regarding the correct pronuncia-
ton of the name of the new generals
simO of the allied armies.
On paper Foch seems Teutonic, says
the Chicago Herald, and suggests
thrOaty gutturals of the kind that are
no longer popular in the civilized
world. But the name is pronounced
as if 1t were spelled Fosh, with short
So" like "uh," and almost rhymes with
"huSh" This is on the authority of
lie Courier des Etats Unis, q French
daily newspaper published in New
York.
General FoCh is a Basque from the
Pyrenees, not an AlSatian. All Basque
names terminating in "ch" have the
soft ssh" sound instead of the Ger
manic cultural.

The great sky is a garden fair,
And in the velvet gloom.
At night, among the meadows there,
The starry flowers bloom.
Forget -me-not and violet
Are stars so very small
That often one must look and look,
To see them there at all.
The lovely rose-star blossoms near
The sunfloWer bold and bright;
The buttercup and daisy stars
Wink saucily all night.
The red moon is the gardener
Who tends the starry lawn,
And smiles benignly Ger 1t all
Until the break of dawn.
And so they blossom all night through,
And never. never die;
These myriads of flowers
In the garden Of the sky.
