CLUB HOUSE FOR OFFICERS
PLANNED AT CAMP MERRITT

What will be the first club house in
the Atlantic division designed exclu-
sively for officers is soon to be built at
Camp Merritt, New Jersey. More than
$4,000 has been donated to the Red
Cross for the purpose, and the plans
have already been drawn up.
While a club for enlisted men was
recently given by Mrs. Merritt, widow
of Gen. Wesley G.. Merritt, no provi-
sion has heretofore been made for the
officers, and since thousands of them
pass through this military post en-
route to France the need is great.
The structure, covering 10000 feet
of ground space, one story In height, is
to include a billiard room and lounge,
dining room, kitchen, women's dining
and rest room. with barber shop and
five modern baths fitted with porcelain
tubs instead Of showers.

Start Early Potatoes in
Trenches on Straw; Cover
As Roots Begin to Start

Often potatoes planted in April will
planted a month or six weeks later.
Meanwhile the first seed does not re-
tain the virile strength of the later
planted ones, because Of the long wait
before termination. The result Is dis
couraging to truck farmers who want
to get their spuds started early to get
them ready for fancy prices, writes F.
e. Drummer, in Farm and Ffreside.
l have found potatoes are quickly
started by the following means: A
trench about 10 inches deep Is dug In
well-drained soil, the bottom being
loosened so that the soil is mellow. In
the trench straw Is laid so that when
packed down it has a depth of an inch
or two. Next drop the seed at the de-
sired distances apart and leave it ly-
ing In the trench uncovered. The larg-
er seed Is better for use In getting a
quick, early crop. The sun has free
opportunity to shine on the seed, when
1t soon begins to start sprouts. AS
the roots begin to form, a little dirt is
drawn In around the seed. The plant
will finally reach the top of the ground
level, and the trench can then be filled
in-but not before. Potatoes planted
in this way will not easily freeze, be-
they are protected by being low.
er than the surface of the ground, and
should there be danger of freezing 1t is
not much trouble to cover the burrows
lightly with straw until the cold wave
passes,

Trees Are an Asset.

1t would seem that every person
who owns a farm or city lot would see
the Importance of trees, but judging
from the homes one finds without trees
it is safe to conclude that many do not
yet realize the value of trees. How
ever, some who plant trees fail to
make them live; the seasons in some
localities may be unfavorable for a
few years and destroy the trees; 9TH
ers may be beginning to build up homes
which sooner or later will be protected
by trees.-Farm and Ranch.
