WAR GARDENS In MADISON,
WISCONSIN

The plan OF the Central War Gar
dren Committee of the Association OF
Commerce under which all garden
work In Madison will be done the
coming season Is to have ten thou
sand war gardens In the city this
summer. An expert from the Uni
versity of Wisconsin has been en-
gagged to devote his entire time to SUI
pervising the work which will be d.
vided into three classes, viz, the chill
dren's group gardens, the childrens
home gardens and the adults gar
drens.
The third group will be divided in
to two classes-industria and the in
dividual gardens. The industrial gar
dens will be those cultivated by the
employees of industrial plants and the
individual gardens will be those cul-
tivated by any of the citizens as in
dividuals either on their own prop
erty or on that procured through the
Central Committee.
The Girls Civic League if the Asso-
citation of Commerce is canvassing
the city for all the land that is avail
able for the purpose. The owners of
vacant lots are expected to be sufilc-
iently patriotic to donate the use Of
the ground.
The Committee has made arrange
meits to have the blowing of the gar
dens done in systematic manner.
On large plots of one acre or more
tractors will be used and teams will
be employed on the smaller lots. The
problem of securing seed will be
serious one this year, and the commit
tee is expecting to secure it from the
large seed houses at special prices
for combination packages suitable
for the small garden. A carload CT
seed potatoes including both early
and late varieties will be obtained
through the Agricultural Department
of the University of Wisconsin. These
seed potatoes will be sold to the gard
ners at cost.
Steps have also been taken toward
procuring an adequate supply Of
plants, such as tomato, cabbage, etc,
that have to be raised from the seed
in greenhouse and then transplanted.
One real estate firm has shown its
patriotism by agreeing to pull up I'll
inside stakes of its plated ground
and donate the land for garden pur-
poses This is quite concession be-
cause the company will be compelled
later to employ an engineer to re-
place the stakes.
The committee will insist that tho

ton of q lot attend to it throughout
the entire season in order that there
may be no waste of ground or seed.
Hhe committee will also insist that
the weeds be kept down and that the
garden be properly cared for other
wise the supervisor will turn 1t over
to some one else.

Y. NJ. c. A. NEEDS MORE WORK. IS

The necessity for increasing The
number of Y. NJ. c. A. workers With
the American and French armies is
set forth in a. statement received here
today from the National War W, rk
Council of the Y. M. C. A. by r. A..
Cochran, chairman of the local re-
cruiting committee for Y. NJ. G. A.
workers. Cablegrams from Army Y.
M. c. A. officials now in France point
out the extreme Importance of this
service for the soldiers and call upon
America to furnish $50 men in addi-
ton to the regular quota Of 300 men
already asked for and the 800 previ-
ously requested for the French Army
Our chief secretary in France, E.
c. Carter, wires that there are more
than hundred important ports with
out workers" said Mr.. Cochran to-
day. "Forty-seven of these are near
the front and 80 are actually under
shell fire. We believe that no col
lege or bank presidency or big city
pulpit is of so great national import
ance as a hut secretaryship in France.
"The French government. through
it's premier and commander-in-chief,
has asked an immediate extension Of
the Y. M. c. A. to the French armies.
Knowing that we could not supply all
the needs at once they have asked
us to supply $50 men a month to man
their Foyers de Soldat. The Italian
army wants fifty men at once and
promises to place at their disposal
young Italians who can be trained
quickly to extend the work on the
Austrian front.
Every Y. NJ. c. A. secretary in the
country is burdened with the extra
task OF finding other men fitted to
take up Y. NJ G. A. work for the sol
diers at home and abroad. We are
seeking to enlist in the country at
large In the next thirty days 400 men
for service In the United statesffi 400

itionary force under General Per-
shing; 900 for the French army huts;
100 to supplement the work in Eng
fish Y. NJ. C.. A. huts, and rs to be
sent to Italy.
This is the service which requires
the highest type of manhood. We are
particularly seeking successful bust
ness and professional men, those of
high Christian character, good mix
ers, men resourceful and adaptable to
conditions as they find them. We
want the highest class of men Amer
leans produced for the highest type
of work of their fellowmen which can
be offered.
Some. of them will be sent close to
perhaps actually up to the firing
line. All will see conditions which
tear mems souls. 1t is not an adven-
ture filled with romance; there will
be plenty of drugery, long hours, and
high tension, nerve-racking work. Ii
demands ability to keen cheerful and
bring inspiration to other men who
are war weary, hOinesick and dis
couraged, and who are facing unusual
temptations. II involves actual dam
ger. II is no task for a man fond of
ease or of low physical vitality. Yet
we believe there are plenty of men
who will find in the call to this SER
vice an opportunity of doing the
greatest work of their lives. and that
there are many who would offer them
selves if they thought they could
qualify.
I'VE also want chauffeurs, mechan-
icians. accountants, clerks and steno-
graphers, construction men to build
huts, shipping men to handle the sup
Piles. and many others"
There are at present 1886 American
Y. NJ. G. A. workers in Europe. One
hundred and fifty OF these we're COM
PEELED to retire before the German adj
vance in Russia and are now In 81

WHAT DO l GET OUT OF 1T?

The age-old query of the selfish
man.
1t is going out of fashion of course
in this day of cooperation and SER
vice and independence and general
consciousness of civic duty but it will
be with us in some form while hui
man nature lasts. Every man owes
to himself the selection of a location
in which he can make a success of
life. If business conditions are not
what they should be in his city, he
owes to himself, his business and his
family such efforts as he can put
forth to provide remedies. The Cham
Der of Commerce is the medium thru
which the citizens of the community
exercise their civic rights. When the
Chambe rof Commerce works for the
Industrial, commercial and civic de-
velopment of the community, it is
working for you.

No crocuses in November.

It should be consolation to women
who have passed thirty to remember
that the most beautiful work of human
hands-the Venus de Milo-is the
statue of mature woman, comments
a writer. All the Venuses, in fact, are
represented as mothers. There is not
a young girl in the lot. Among the
Greek statues only Psyche could quail
ify as Broadway beauty, and even
Psyche might appear little plump
and mature to the admirers of the hui
man reedbird.
OF course, every woman should fight
ugliness to her last hour. She need
not lose her beauty at any age. But
one does not expect to pick snowdrops
or crocuses from the fallen leaves of
November, and it is just as futile to
hope to look sixteen when you are
forty.

Bodies Of U. s. Soldiers Who Die

War department officials say it prac-

of American soldiers who die in
France to this country until after tho
war. If relatives want to do so before
hostilitics end, they will have to as
sumo that responsibility. Secretary
of War Baker, has ruled that the
United States men who die on Euro
pean battle fields shall be buried
and the graves marked and the rela-
tives notified of all disposition made
Of the bodies.
The first contingent Of a registra-
ton service to look after the marking
and burial Of American soldiers has

The Beauty of Truth.

Only that which has character is
beautiful.
Character is the essential truth of
any natural object, whether ugly or
beautiful; !. it Is even what, one might
call double truth, for it is the inner
truth translated by the outer truth; II
Is the soul, the feelings, the idea, ex-
pressed by the features Of a face, by
the gestures, and actions of human
being, by the tones Of sky, by the
line of q horizon.
Now, to the great artist, everything
In nature has character; for the I'M
swerving directions of his observation
searches out the hidden meaning of
all things.
There is nothing ugly in art except
that which offers no outer or inner
truth.-Rodin.
