operate with the Jewish Welfare
Board in securing the establishment
of Kosher restaurant for the con-
venience of the large number of
visitors to camp whose faith neces-.
states the eating of Kosher food.
We realize the fact that there is an
especially large number of Jews at
this cantonment and we believe that
the establishment of such restau-
rant would do much to foster
feeling of satisfaction and higher
morale among both the. men and
their families. Of course it is under
stood that the Kosher restaurant
will be intended for visitors to camp
and it is our belief that it would not
encourage the refusal of the men to
live on the food provided for them
in the army.

KOSHER RESTAURANT APP
PROVED.

The efforts of the Jewish Welfare
Board to provide Kosher food in
army camps for visitors of soldiers
have met with the approval of the
Military Morale Section Of the War
Department which is lending it's CO.
operation to the plan. A Kosher
restaurant has been recommended
and will probably be established
shortly at Camp Upton which has
the largest Jewish military popula-
ton of any camp. ..*
Plans have been under way for
some time to make provision for
Orthodox Jews whose faith makes
it impossible for them to eat army
food. My recommending the res
taurant for the convenience of FAM
lilies and friends, the War Depart
ment believes that it is not encour-
aging men to refuse to eat the food
provided for them.
A report sent to Captain G. B.
Perkins of the. Military Morale Sec
ton of the War Department, from
Camp Upton, has been forwarded
to Colonel Harry Cutler, chairman
of the Jewish Welfare Board. It

unjust because the Jews of Austria
had done their full share in bearing
the burdens of the war and on the
further ground that all the charges
brought by the agitators were ground
less. DR.. Straucher, according to the
Zionist reports, was supported by nom
Jewish Deputies in the Austrian Lower
House, concerning his inquiry regard
ing the suppression by the censorship
of an account in "The Judische Zeit-
ung' of July 10, of a serious anti
Jewish outbreak in Jareslay, Galicia.
Dr. Straucher is quoted as follows:

Excellency is aware that the censor
ship proceeds in the most arbitrary
and irrational fashion, Withholding
harmless passages, the prohibition of

public interest than would their pub
LEGATION. The article in question is an
account of anti Jewish excuses which,
in spite of all measures of the Aus
trian censorship, are known every
where in Austria and abroad also.
The procedure of the attorney General
creates the impression that the Aus
trian authorities by suppressing this
news desired to show its approval of
or to screen these Incidents course
eminently calculated to injure serious

state for just dealing towards all its

Russian historians will use for years
to come.
Sire, the Jewish people, OPP

such statement of prejudice passed

the good that the nations enjoy, with
the will of God, during your reign,
and the love that our brethren of the
Jewish faith enjoy in Germany, and
the friendships they possess, all give
proof that the statement attributed
to you is false.

showing the existence there and in

Expeditionary Force, various posters
were exhibited in the streets with
suitable appeals. The following is
a literal translation of one Of these,
as reproduced in the Hebrew issue
of the Palestine News =
Hear, Israel! Listen! "What

not this the hour for recovering
Our land and for assuring Our pos

while we remain at home until they
restore to us the land which they
have redeemed with their blood?
And Listen! 'What does the
voice of honor say to your" Can
we receive from the hands of our
de1iverers, our true de1iverers, a
gift of blood, free gift like this, if
we do not also sacrifice our lives
with them for it?
HEAR ISRAEL!
The blood of our heroic ancestors
of two thousand years ago, and the
blood Of the British who are fight

Of martyrs is calling to us from this

Many small reservoirs have been
built In the grazing districts of the
West to furnish water for range stock
and household purposes, the irrigation
of land from such supplies being of
secondary Importance. These are dis
cussed in this article.
In the Great Plains area and more
particularly in the eastern portions of
Wyoming and Montana and the west
ern portions of the Dakotas, there Is
little stream flow during the greater
part of the year and the well water
often is so ~impregnated with mineral
salts as to be unfit for drinking pur-
poses. On the other hand, the native
grasses are abundant and nutritious
but the cattle and sheep which Craze
thereon are not permitted to feed be-
yond easy reach of the nearest water
hole. Thus without the use of reser-
voirs or other means of providing wa
ter, the public range can be only par
TALLY utilized and too often the big
stock companies, in acquiring posses
sion of the land bordering springs and
streams, become the sole beneficiaries
of the use of such lands.
Water for Stock.
Other reservoirs of this class have
been built by transportation companies
in order to provide water for cattle
and sheep en- route from the range to
the nearest railway station.
The dams for reservoirs of this type
are of earth built for the most part in
the beds of streams. Before h en-
bankment is begun the surface of the
ground under the entire base of the
dam, as well as the borrow pit, Is
stripped for a depth of at least six
inches so as to get rid of all sod and
other light, porous material which
would prevent the earth in the dam
from settling in a solid and compact

SERIOUS DISEASE OF CATTLE
Abortion Is More Widespread Than
Most Farmers Thlnk-Different
Treatments Advocated.

A disease that is more widespread
than most farmers think is contagious
abortion of cattle. 1t is such an In
siduous disease that 1t gets a foot
hold in a herd of cattle before the
owner is aware and then generally it
Is impossible to eradicate 1t without
sacrificing the herd. A number of diff
ferent treatments have been advocated
but there is no sure cure. says Indiana
Farm and Guide. Caution as to the
condition of the breeding stock should
be observed. Diseased animals of
either sex should be Stunned as the
trouble is carried in this WY. Other
sources Of the disease are contaminat-
ed food and water, infected bedding,
etc. When a COW aborts several times
In succession or the several other
members Of the herd lose their calves,
one should become suspicious and call

When starting a farm flock try to

FACTORS IMPORTANT
IN FIXING PROFITS
Size, Diversity and Productive
ness Are Essential to Sue
cesSfuI Farm Business.

The factors most important in de-
termining the profits in farming are
size. diversity, and productivity of the
business, according to W. E. Grimes,
assistant professor of farm nag
ment in the Kansas State Agricultural
college.
"Of these factors, the one which
confronts farmers is diversity of bust
ness" said Mr.. Grimes. 'Too many
farmers derive the greater part of
their income from one enterprise,
which If 1t fails leaves them without
resources.
Seasons vary while the require
ments of different crops are constant.
Seasons which are unfavorable for one
crop are often favorable for another.
The farmer who is following diversi-
fed farming methods usually has a
good yield Of some crop.
Another difficulty of Importance
to the farmer who grows only one
crop is that he has an abundance of
work during rush seasons and has lit
tie to do at other times. Under pres
emit conditions labor is scarce. Often
by growing a combination Of crops he
can distribute his labor throughout the
summer season.
'In the wheat growing sections
farmers should plant part of their
ground to crops for feed and keep suf-
ficient live stock to utilize them. Live
stock furnish work throughout the
winter and often enable the farmer
to hire a farm hand for the year.
"Feed crops usually do not conflict
seriously with wheat harvests and
distribute farm labor throughout the
summer season more uniformly. They
will yield a profit when fed to live
stock. Roughage which is Of little
value otherwise may also be fed. Keep
Ing live stock Is the most economical
method Of maintaining the fertility Of
the soil and only practical meth
cd for nearly all sections of the state.
Better diversity In business of the
average farmer will increase the
profits. establish farming on a safer
business basis and enable the farmer
to safeguard against the danger Of
complete failure In any year and aid
In overcoming the present scarcity Of
labor"

manner. After the ground has been
so stripped and before the grading is
begun, a trench u feet wide and not
less than IS inches in depth is dug the
entire length Of the proposed dam. The
edge Of this trench from the upstream
side is not less than 3 or more than 10
feet inside the toe of the inner slope.
This trench is dug for the purpose of
breaking the seam that otherwise
might exist between the natural ground
and the constructed dam.
Standard Dimensions.
The dam then is built in the usual
way by placing the material In uniform
layers under the whole base Of the
dam. Figure / shows the standard d.
mansions used in entertainments and
the position of the in~tercepting trench.
It will be noted from this sketch that
the flow line of the wasteway is five
feet below the top of the embankment.
Wherever possible, a natural waste
way was utilized in direct line with the
stream channel and the dam located
to one side so as no to be subjected
to the direct force of the stream.
To protect the embankment from
waves produced by the high winds Of
the open range, the inner slope may
be covered with rock, brush and rock,
or other material. A common kind Of
protection consists of sheet piling
formed Of inch boards 10 inches wide
and 8 feet long. Each board is driven
into the embankment at the edge of
the water Of a full reservoir to a depth
of 8 feet and then nailed to 2 horizon
tai ties of 1 by 10-inch boards. These
latter are braced to dead men buried
in the dam in the manner shown In fig
ure /.
Smaller Reservoirs.
Small earthen reservoirs or 'set-
Ting basins" for the watering of stock
are common in Imperial Valley, Cali
fornia. These are usually rectangular in
form, 20 by 80 feet being a common size
and about 4 feet deep. To keep out the
stock they are fenced with the excep-
ton of a drinking place about @ feet
long, which Is cribbed. The cribbing
consists of two 12-inch planks spaced
Q inches apart with the intervening
space filled with sand. Figure 2 Illus
trates this cheap method of furnishing
water for stock. In recent years a
more costly equipment to provide wa
ter for domestic purposes as well as
stock has been introduced In the val
ley. One plant In the valley comprises

which the muddy water from the irrl-

Some does show inclination to mate
much later in the year than others, but
after March a doe seldom comes in
