the camp. There are, of course, al
so, large tailor shops and laundries
provided.
After retreat" the men or most
of them rather, are at liberty until
TAPS" at IL p. m. Foremost is
the rush for jitneys to town, where
shows, dances, parties, etc., claim
large quota. especially on fine, warm
evenings.
But the camp is by no means de-
serted. The Y. M. C. A. and K. of
G.. huts are filled with soldiers who
go there to read or write or to take
in whatever program is offered, and
programs at the camp auditoriums
are always we'll patrOniZed. Then,
too, there are always number Of
companies putting on dancing par
ties in the barracks, with soldier jazz
bands to furnish the music From
so 20 100 young ladies' societies in
Rockford furnish chaperons. Band
concerts may be heard most any
hour-and often band is leading a
consignment of the boys to the
Transportation trains.
The Silly night also carries forth
from the barracks the more or less
harmonious tones of the Kitchen
police quartet" united in songs of
I'll kinds, from the raggediest of
jazz to the classiest of the classics.
Pianos and victrolas add their quota
to the evening sounds.
The visitor may be suddenly
startled by the moaning shrek of
our fire siren. and have an oppor-
tunity of seeing the fire drill and
possibly, if there is real blaze and
it's in his neighborhood, watch the
fire department make run.
And all day long, and throughout
the night. the sentries pace their
posts. If our visitor has permission
to leave or enter camp after II p
m. the challenges of the guards will
give him some idea of what melt
ing pot" this army is. From the
gruff Yankee Halt, Who's There, "
he may be challenged in most any
of hundred or more variations in
every known dialect that these
United States can boast
But Of all of his recollections of
this visit we believe he will be most
impressed with the magnificent. ro-
bust wholesomeness of the boys
themselves. their gentlemanly be-
havior toward comrade and stranger
alike, the total absence of drunken
ness and rowdyism and the eager,
serious enthusiasm which they put
into their work.

FRUIT GAN BE PUT
 UP WITHOUT SUGAR
Canning Specialists Say Boiling Wa ter May Be Used Instead of
 Syrup.

The present shortage and price of sugar is no excuse for not canning big surplus. Fruit for use in pies or stewed fruit can be put up without the use of sugar, accord ing to the canning specialists of the Extension Division of the Univers- ity of Arkansas. Any fruit may be sterilized successfully and retained in the pack by simply adding boiling water instead of the hot syrup.
 Can the product the same day it is picked. Gull, stem, or seed and clean the fruit by placing it in a strainer and pouring water over it until it is clean. Pack the product thoroughly in glass jars or tin cans until they are full; use the handle of a table spoon, wooden ladle, or table knife for packing purposes. Pour over the fruit boiling water from kettle, place rubbers and caps in position, partially seal if using glass jars, seal complete ly if using tin cans. Place the con tainers in sterilizing vat, such as a wash boiler with false bottom, or other receptacle improvsed for the purpose. If using hot water bath out fit, process for thirty minutes, count ing time after the water has reached the boiling point; the water must cover the highest jar in container. Af- ter sterilizing, remove packs, seal glass jars, wrap in paper to prevent bleaching, and store in a dry, cool place.
 If you are canning in tin cans it will improve the product to plunge the cans quickly into cold. water imme diately after sterilization.
 For instructions on canning peaches. pears, apples, and vegetables, write to the Extension Division, ~Old State house, Little Rock, Ark.

PRESERVE EGGS
 FUR WINTER USE
Interesting Experiments at the College
 of Agriculture Show, What Pre- servatiVes Are Best.
Ely s. R. Stout, Assistant Poultry Hus- bandman, Arkansas Experiment Sta tion, University of Arkansas.

During the fall and early winter. eggs are very scarce and high-priced. Therefore, we should preserve for win ter use i'll the best possible way all egg nat used fresh in summer. There afe a lumber of methods employed for prSsertin eggs, some of which are water giGss, lime water, salt, yaseline and patent preseryatiyes.
 Last June an experiment. was started al the Arkansas Experiment Station to ascertain the efficiency of different egg conservatives that were available at that time. Seven different presery- atves were used, namely: Water glass, lime water salt, vaseline, Yankee, E. Z., and Flemings' egg conservatives.
 The water glass was prepared by boiling nine quarts of clean water and then, after it had been allowed to cool, one quart of water glass was added. The solution was well mixed and set aside for short time. The solution was poured from one vessel to another until the solution was well mixed and cold. The eggs were placed in the water glass the same day they were laid and stored in a basement room.
 The lime water was prepared in much the same way as was the water glass. The eggs were placed in a sat urated solution which was made by slaking a small amount of quick lime in small quantity of water. The milk of lime obtained was added to five gallons of clean, fresh water. This solution was well mixed and allowed to settle. The liquid was then drawn off, and when it became cool was poured into earthen crooks. The eggs Were placed in the solution as soon as they were gathered
 The eggs placed in the salt were packed in common salt, small end down. Those preserved in the patent preseryatives were preserved accord ing to the directions which accom- panied the preserVatiye The vaseline was applied in much the same way as was the patent preservatives, by plac- ing a small amount of yaseline in the palms of the hands and rubbing each egg well, making sure the entire sur face was covered. The eggs were all placed in egg cartons and stored in the same room with the water glass and lime water and salt.
 After six months the eggs were tested by the Home Economics De- partment for their cooking qualities, with the following results
 Eggs preserved in water glass were found to resemble fresh eggs more nearly than did any of the others They were suitable for cooking, mak- ing custards and cakes. However, they were not good poached. Those in
