A big marine sergeant stood on the
front steps of the Star building to
take look at the busy avenue before
going up to the Devil Dog" recruit
ing station.
While he stood there along came
soldiers sailors and marines. They
streamed by. The sergeant came to
salute time after time. His arm be-
gan to grow numb. AS husky as he
was, saluting at machine-gun rate be-
came tiresome.
The sergeant grinned as he saluted
for the steenth time.

said pleasantly, 1--WE would win 1t right

outdoor STORAGE celIars.

Outdoor storage cellars or caves are
excellent for the storage of many veg
etables. They are particularly desira-
bic on the farm, as they afford conven-
lent and inexpensive storage facilities
for surplus vegetable crops that other
wise might be lost. They possess all
the advantages Of the storage room
in the basement and are superior in
many respects. The outdoor storage
cellar can be maintained at uniform
temperature over a long period. 1t is
possible to keep the cellar cool and
quickly to reduce the temperature of
the stored products to the desired
point for safe storage by opening the
door during the night and closing 1t in
the morning before the air becomes
warm. All ventilators should likewise
be kept tightly closed until the out
side air is again cooler than that with
in the cellar, when they should be
opened, unless the outside temperature
Is so low as to be dangerous. This
safeguards the product and adds to the
efficiency of the storage chamber.
Vegetables can be more conveniently
plaed>in such a cellar than In the stor-
age room In the basement Of dwell
Ing.
When the cnief use of the outdoor
storage cellar is for storing turnlps,
beets, carrots, and other root crops
commonly used as stock food, 1t should
be located near the stable, where the
material will be convenient for winter
feeding. When 1t is to be used for
vegetables for the table the cellar
should be accessible from the kitchen
at all times. If apples or other fruits
are to be stored In an outdoor storage
cellar it is desirable to have a two
compartment cellar, one for vegetables
and one for apples, with ventilatlng
apparatus in each compartment.
Small Pits Best.
Outdoor banks or pits are used very
generally for keeping vegetables. The
conical pit is used commonly for suck
vegetables as potatoes, carrots, beets
turnips, satisfy, parsnIps. and heads Of
cabbage.
Vegetables keep very well in such

STRIVE NOW TO
PREVENT WASTE
Save Time and Labor by Keeping
Root Crops in Storage
Cellars and Pits.
OUTDOOR CAVES ARE USEFUL
Particularly Desirable on Farm as
They Afford Convenient and In.
expensive Facilities for Sur
plus Vegetables.

Before canning or drying root vege-
tables the housewife should carefully
consider the possibility of saving time,
strength, and expense by the use of
storage pits or root cellars.
A half-acre garden will produce far
more vegetables than the average fam
fly can consume during the summer.
Only a small portion of the garden
products are used as they reach ma
turity. Beets, late cabbage, carrots,
celery, onions, parsnips, potatoes,
sweet potatoes, satisfy, and turnlps
may all be stored for winter use.
The successful storage Of vegetables
is not at all difficult; in fact good
storage facilities already exist in
most homes, 1t being only necessary
to make use of the cellar, the attic, a
large closet, or other parts Of the
dwelling, depending upon the charac-
ter Of the product to be stored. Many
cellars are not well suited for this
because of poor insulation or lack Of
ventilation. Cellars containing a fur
mace for heating the dwelling usually
are too warm and too dry for the stor-
age Of root crops. 1t is often possi-
BILE, however, to partition off a room
either in one corner or at one end Of
the cellar where the temperature may
be controlled by means of outside win
dows.

K aiser Sees Wreck
Caused BY British
At Zeebrugge Mole

LONDON. April 25.-Reuters Am
sterdam correspondent sends the fol-
loving telegram received from Berlin
"The Kaiser on Tuesday visited Zee
brugge, the scene of the frustrated d
British attack. He boarded the mole
where ne convinced himself that tho
damage caused by the blowing up of
the railway bridge had already heen
temporarily repaired and that a final
bridging OF the gap can be done in a
lew days. lie also satisfied himself
of the perfectly good condition of ali
the structures and installations on tho
outer part of the mole. which was Tho
object Of the attack
"tle then proceeded to the canal lock
where two ccment-ladcn cruisers lie
and at the scene of the nocturnal bat
tie obtained again an exact account
IRON several participant officers. The
Kaiser got 4 captured English captain
Of marines who happened to be brought
past to explain the battle. The can
tain admitted that the destruction Of
the installations on the mole and the
cutting off of our U-boats from the
bases at Zeebrugggc and Ostend were
long-prepared enterprises and were to
be carried out on big scale. A sur
prise attack had been planned fou,
times, but each time it failed, owing t(
the vigilance Of the German outnos ST
boats. Not until Monday night did the
thick mist render the raid possible
without, however, obtaining the snc.
cess intended.'

Ryan Attends His
First Meeting of
Aircraft Board

WASHINGTON, April 25.-Reor-
ganization of the army aircraft ma
chinery, announced yesterday, was
said at the WAR Department to-day tc
be a preliminary step designed tc
meet the immediate need for expedit-
ing the aircraft programme. Congress
will be asked to legislate on the ques-
tion as soon as John d. Ryan, Director
of Production, has determined just
what further steps are necessary.
Complete severance of the signal
and possibly an additional division OF
the General Staff will be created to
harmonic the air service with other
arms in operation.
Mr.. Ryan attended the meeting of
the Aircraft Board to-day, as did
Howard Coffin, whose place ION the
board and as chairman the new di-
rector will take when his nomination
has been confirmed. Under existing
law, Major General Squier as chief sig
nal officer remains q member of the
board and also handles aviation funds.
With the appointment of Brigadier
General William L. Kenly as head of
the new division of military aeronau-
tics, the connection of the chief signal
officer with the air service will be per-
functory,
Under the reorganization new plans
will be made at once based on the
needs in France and known capacity
of the country. In view of the uni
tication, Of all the Allied armies i'll
France under&General Foch the posi-
bility is presented that the United
States may be called upon to furnish
flying units and machines to supple
ment those of the British and French
armies.
of the e's snnnntmnnt of NJ RJan ppl
General Kenly to their new posts is to
hurry forward the machines now being
turned out. The number available for
shipment is constantly increasing and
it now appears certain very sub
stantial number of American built and
American manned craft will be in the
fighting in France during the summer

"Fifteen minutes after the Vindic-
tive arrived alongside the mole our
submarine exploded under the viaduct
connecting the mole with the main
land. The Germans had sent con-
siderable force to this viaduct as soon
as the submarine arrived and these
men were gathered on the viaduct, at
tacking our submersible with machine
guns. When the explosion occurred
the viaduct and Germans were blown
up together. The crew of the subma-
Tine. consisting of six men, escaped on
board dlngy to motor launch.

she'll knocked out our howiter, which
had been getting in some good shots

the largest seaplane station in Bel
GUM. Unfortunately, our other guns
could not be brought to bear effec-
lively upon it. The shell which dis
ablcd the howitzer killed all the mem
bers of the gun crew. Many men
were also killed by a German she'll
which hit the mole close to our ship
and scattered fragments of steel and
stone among the marines assembling
on the deck around the gangway.
'''Vhe German fire was very hot all
the time we lay alongside the mole
At times the German guns reached as
high as forty shots per minute. Dur

how things were going. The spirit of
the men was excellent. All they asked
was, Are we winning?'
"ialf an hour after the block ships
won't in we received the signal to
withdraw. The Vindictive's siren was
blown and the men returned from all
parts Of the mole and throngcd down
the gangway. We put off, after hav-
ing laid alongside just about an hour.
The Germans made no effort to inter-
fere with our getaway, other than to
continue their heavy firing"

plenty of defensive equipment in case
the Germans attempted to board her"

While the Daffodil kept US against the
mole with her nose against the op-

heavy sea two of our three gangways

Jailed to do this none Of the members
OF the landing party would have been
able to return to the ship.
Block Ships Pass In
"Twenty minutes after the Vim

block ship passed in and headed for
