are actively engaged in promoting the
cause: The Hawaiian Islands, Cuba,
Porto Rico. the Dominican Republic,
the United States Of Argentine, Bra

LIGHT FARMING Cures

convaIascenta ain Health and

in Iios..-..jc.i. Grounds.

The Rase Hospitals of Europe,
whore American boys as well as the
boys OF oei alli@s are recuperating,
hare decided that the men who arc
+ yet unable to Eight, or TO so back to
their places in TIE ranks, may gain
health and strength while filling the
soil, and incidentally may add many
tons Of vegetables to the necessary
food supplies.
Ten expert market gardeners from
this cou'try lsavN been sent to France
to direct the work, as it has been found
that this farm labor Is one of the best
restoratlyes OF health, and also that
there is no better work for those suf-
feriag from shell shock than this out
of-docrs activity. Many soldiers who
have worked at the farms announce
that they intend to buy farms and con-
tinue c.i their return from France.
In addition to the helpful exercise
the tables are helped, and In one hos
pital there has been green corn on the
cob served as a result of the soldier
farming. Green corn is not common
In France, but it certainly pleased the
men who were fortunate enough to get
some of it. And the American boys
well, just imagine an American seeing
green corn on the cob when he didn't
expect there was such delicacy near
err than the old U. S. A! ss.-.
More than two tons of vegetables
were grown at Base Hospital No. 6 in
less than three months. Peas, pota-
toes, beans, radishes, lettuce and corn,
and the soldiers declare that there is
nothing like the taste of these Ameri-
can vegetables grown In the gardens OF

RED CROSS MARTYR
KILLED BY Shell

The grave of Lieut.. Edward M. Nc
Key, who was. killed last June while on
duty on the Italian front, where he had
charge of an American Red Cross roIi.
ing canteen. lies about mile and a
half behind the battle line on the lower
Piave. 1t is simple soldiers grave,
and only the American flag with which
it is decorated distinguishes it from
those of. his Italian comrades in arms.
The fine qualities displayed by the
italian soldiers so aroused Lieutenant
McKey's admiration that he gave free
vent to his enthusiasm. "How SPLEEN
didly the Italians are fighting!" were
the last words he uttered, for Just then
an Austrian shell, exploding at their
side, ended his life, at the same time
seriously wounding Captain Colabattis-
tt. The latter, who has since received
q decoration for yalor, paid the highest
tribute to the devotion of Lieutenant
Mickey, his enthusiasm and the tactful
manner in which he performed his
charitable mission among the soldiers.
To quote his own words: LET us rem
der homage to the memory of this
Taliant American Red Cross officer.
who died with words of enthusiasm for
our soldiers on his lips. The Austrian
shell which cut short his career has
not silenccd his voice. On the contra
ry, the sacrifice of his life has immor-
talized his words of praise for Italy's
fighting men. 1t has also forged one
