BATTERY IS OFF
FOR CAMP EDGE
Perth Amboy's Pride at Last
on Their Way to France,
1t Is Believed

y Battery i, of the Second New Jer-
sey Field Artillery, with a personnel
or ninety-three officers and ~privates,
entrained from the Central station at
1885 o'clock this morning for Camp
Edge. Sea Girt, where all of the SINH
lar organizations In the state are to
receive training for fifteen days or
more.
A number of changes in plans,
made at the last minute, caused con-
siderable delay, but the battery men
finally climbed aboard a special train
from Elizabethport about 1880.
A large crowd of friends and rela-
tives of the men were al the station to
SEE them Off and the aisual handshak-
Ing n farewells marked the depart
ure of the batterymen.
The battery had received orders Sat
urday to leave at 9 o'clock, but a tele-
gram received last night instructed
them that the special train which
would take them to Sea Girt would
not arrive until 1890.
At $3.50 o'clock the members of tho
battery were lined up for roll all and
Inspection in State street, lear Smith.
and the were dismissed until 3
o'clock.
At $50 o'clock the men again "fell
in" and after receiving their instruc-
lions were given an hour of drilling
on High and Market streets. The bat
terry arrived at the station at 10:25
in readiness to take the 1880 train.
The special was seen approaching at
1880 and all commenced to move to
the tracks in order to board. but the
train failed to stop. Artillerymen
from the northern part of the state
were seen on the train by the local
men who thought thsy were being left
behind. A telephone message received
a few minutes later stated that tho
train which had passed through was
one of the first sections of the special
and that the train on which the Perth
Amboy men would be taken would ar
rive at 11:10 o'clock.
The time for the train came but II
did not appear. The men waited
rather impatiently until 1880 o'clock
when the long-looked for accommoda-
lions arrived. The batterymen lost no
time in climbing aboard, declaring
that they were "off at last" The train
lost no time here and as soon as the
last man had jumped aboard II pulled
out amid the cheering and fareweils
OF the crowd.
The battery was in charge of Cap
tain Thomas l. Hanson. assisted by
Senior First Lieutenant Louis p.
Booz. Jr.: Junior First Lieutenant Cor
don A. Baldwin: Senior Second Lieu
tenant j. Scott Burns: Junior Second
Lieutenant r. Lee Whitehead: acting

HINTS FOR THE
POULTRY GROWERS

In addition to the grain and the
table scraps in feeding chickens for
meat and eggs, it is well to feed dry
mash: This dry mash is composed OF
various ground grains and is placed
In q mash hopper or box from Wnlch
the hens can help themselves. The
advantage of feeding such a mash Is
that the hens always have access to
feed, and this tends to make up for
any faulty, inexperienced, or insuffl- !
cient feeding. The hens do not like
the dry mash so well that they are
likely to overeat, but it will supply
source of feed in case they are not
getting enough. The dry mash also
provides suitable medium for feeding
beef scrap, certain amount Of which
may OR may not be necessary, depend
ing upon the amount of meat scraps
available in the table waste. If the
hens show tendency to become over
fat it may be desirable to close the
mash hopper during part of the day
and allow them access to it only dur
ing a certain period, preferably the
afternoon. A good dry mash is COM
posed of equal parts by weight of
cornmeal, wheat bran, wheat mid
dlings, and beef scrap. Another good
mash is composed of three parts by
weight of cornmeal and one part beef
scrap. Still third mash, which has
given excellent results, is composed of
one pound of wheat bran, one pound
of wheat middlings, 6.5 pounds of beef
scraps, and 16.5 pounds of cornmeal.
The beef scrap used in the dry mash
is usually the most expensive ingred-
lent, but it is very essential part OF
the mash and very efficient for egg
production. 1t should not be elimi-
mated or reduced unless the quantity
of meat in the table scraps is consid-
cradle or unless some other product
can be substituted for it. Fish scrap,
when available. may replace the beef
scrap. or cottonseed meal can be used
to replace one-half the beef scrap in
the mash. No attempt should be made
to replace more than half the beef
scrap with cottonseed meal, as the re-
suits in egg production and in the
quality of the eggs will be unsatisfac-
tory.
Green cut bone can often be pur-
chased from the butcher. This ma
terial when procured fresh makes an
excellent substitute for beef scrap. 1t
should be purchased in small quanti-
ties, as it can not be kept fresh for
any length of time and when spoiled
may cause severe bowel trouble. 1t is
best fed in trough not oftener than
every other day. allowing about one
half ounce per bird. Should severe or
continued looseness of the bowels fol-
low the feeding of green cut bone it
should be discontinued or the quanti-
ty reduced.

Effect of War on Trade.

It would be impossible to give in de-
tail the effect of the European war on
American trade, but partial statements
show the approximate effect on some
branches of trade. Thus it appears
that during the first 20 months of war
our exports of articles used expressly
for war purposes amounted to $1,092,-
$50, 249. The smallest shipments were
in the opening month of the war, Aug
ust 1914, when such exports amount
ed to only $S,551 oil and increased al
most steadily up to March, 1916, when
the total was $114,326, 426. For the
20 months the exports of explosives
amounted to S166. 1865; gunpowder,
$104,605, 1885, cartridges, $40.3OS,617;
dynamite, 1921 ,073 commercial au-
tomobiles, $S2, 667, 1875; mules. $30026,-

empty shells, Sill, SOB ,316 rubber. in
GLIDING auto tires, S3S,S5S, 76S; barhed
and plain wire, S44, 49,, 3S5. According
to statistics of the United States de-
partment of commerce., more than
three-quarters of the total export
trade of the United States in 1916
went to the allied nations of Europe,
and this including only war exports,
and not provisions or foodstuffs.

Shark Fishing an Industry.

Shark fishing has evolved from a
sport to an organized industry in the
Pacific waters off the southwestern
coast. The skin of various species of
the fish when tanned forms tough
durable leather that is in considerable
demand. and the oil that is extracted
from the carcass likewise has CONNER
cial value. OF late Japanese syndi-
cate has undertaken the exploitation of
this long-neglected field and, as re-
suit large numbers of sharks are being
captured. The notified skins of the
tiger sharks are being made into slip
pers, belts, gloves and other articles,
while those of the great blue and bask-
ing sharks, which are especially thick
and strong, are used for purposes that
demand long-lived material.-Popular

"Buddeized Milk" Can Be
Kept Twenty-0ne Days,
Two Physicians Declare

There Is way of preserving milk
for q days without spelling 1t in any
way. Health Commissioner John Dill
Robertson and DIR. w. A. Evans, for
mer~ commissioner, testified to this be-
fore the Chicago milk commission.
It's called "Buddeized milk" and it's
treated to 1 per cent solution of
peroxide, and then heated to 100 de-
grees Fahrenheit.
The use of this milk would not only
bring down the price, Doctor Robin
son testified, but it would certainly
prevent any possibility of milk fam
inc when the railroads are storm
bound.
The use of the ''Buddeized" milk, the
two doctors said, permits wholesale
buying by the housewife, and permits
the bringing of milk from greater dis
tances. 1t will permit city to get
price that is determined on a butter
fat and cheese factory basis-which is
much less, they say, than the present
prices.

Camp Greene Condemned

Camp Greene, Charlotte, N. c., now
occupied by training troops, is to be
aba ndoned as training center because of
unsuitability of the ground on which it is
located. Maj. Gen. Dickman, senior Of
ficer at the camp, was at the War De-
partment at Washington, Feb. 18th, and
reported the camp site knee deep in the
mud in some places owing to an unusual
ly hard winter and the clay soil which
underlies the surface and prevents rapid
absorption. The medical department has
determined, however, that there is no
danger to the health of the soldiers there
until summer comes, and by that time
the men will have been moved.
