MOST FAMOUS CORN FIELD.

Almost In the heart of the city of
Washington all last season stood great
field of corn that became without ques-
ton the most famous cornneld the world
ever knew.
at was planted, cultivated, and har-
vested by boys-the Boy Scouts of Wash
ington When war was declared the gov
ernment turned over to these boys one
hundred acres Of undevelOped land in
Potomac Park, near the Washington
monument The boys, half thousand
OF them, planted this land To corn; and
never was crop of any sort so watched
from beginning TO end and admired by
so many Of the eminent men and women
Of the earth.
"The location of the field brought it its
fame The favorite automobile drive in
Washington is through Potomac Park,
alongside the broad, tidal river. War
brought 70 Washington at some time or
other during the year Of 1917 most of the
great men OF the United States. Few of
these but saw and asked questions about
the cornfeld, for its conspicuous location
In the center of o beautiful city park
made it one Of the sights Of the capital
Even the sightseeing automobiles began
taking the tourists TO the teld when by
midsummer the hundred acres were q
waving sea of green, the stalks standing
with level tops twelve TO sixteen feet
above the black soil, with never a thin OF
stunted spot in the whole tract.
when the war missions began to ar
rive from the foreign countries, the ennis
saries early in then visits observed the
corn eld and stopped to admire it and
10 ask questions Admiration in half a
dozen languages has been poured out
over the held. Balfour saw it, and
so did Joffre and Viviani, and the mombars
of the Italian mission, and the Russian,
and the Belgian and the japanese. The
temperamental French were moved al
most to tears, for they saw in that field
concrete evidence that the youth of
America are heart and soul in tho war -

HAVE YOUR SEED CORN TESTED.

In our efforts to produce II 1918 as
large a crop OF corn as possible nothing
should be left undone that will insure sue
cess The grower should be positive that
his seed will germinate strongly. The
careful examination of all seed corn
should be made at an early date Owing
to the cool, wet fall corn did not mature
thoroughly before freezing weather. The
extremely low temperature OF the past
few weeks has probably niuredt the vitality
Of corn that was not thoroughly dried out.
The only way TO determine whether corn
has been injured or not is TO make q
termination test. In order to aid IN this
work the department of agronomy OF the
Delaware Experiment Station viii make
a termination test free of charge to any
farmer in the State.
The sample for testing should consist
of two or three hundred kernels from
about fifty ears of corn, that is, four or
five kernels from each ear The kernels
should he taken from the cars you intend
to use for seed, no matter under what
conditions they have been stored. II
you have not selected your seed ears take
the samples from the crib or stock Of
corn you viii probably use for seed. A
report viii be sent 10 you as soon as tbs
test is completed, together with sugges-
tions if necessary. The samples, ac-
conpanied by the name and address OF
the sender, should he sent by parcel post
to Prof A. f. Granthqm, Newark.

DRIVE FOR RECRUITS
TO HELP BUILD SHIPS
Defense Council Sends Orders
Throughout Country for En-
rollment of 2S0,0O0.

Washington, Feb. 4-The Council
of National Defense, which is co-operat-
ing in the drive to enroll 250,0Oo work
ers for the United States Shipyard
Volunteers" has sent final instructions
not only to the chairmen of the various
State Councils, but to all county chair
men direct. The county chairrnen are
10 work in close cooperation with the
State directors OF the Public Service
Reserve
Under the plan for enrolment 10000
classification cards and enrolment blanks
have been sent TO 3, 500 county chairmen
OF the State Council of Defense, accord
ing TO the industrial density Of popula-
tion. These cards are accompanied by
franked return postcards, addressed TO
Chairman Hurley of the United States
Shipping Board, notifying him Of each
enrolment, and, in addition, franked
cards TO be mailed by men IN case OF
change OF address after enrolment. The
package also contains definite instructions
for each enrolment agent, and lnforma-
tion circulars for each man enrolled.
When the enrolment blanks are filed
out they will be held in each State by
the Director of the Public Service Re
serve, and as definite calls are made for
men in the shipvards these cards Will be
used, il there are not enough unemployed
applicants to complete the quota Of men
needed TO meet that particular call.
In this way there viii be little disrup-
ton of business, and no man patriotic
enough to join the Shipyard Volunteers
will be called away from apparently
lucrative employment unless his personal
work is absolutely needed for the good of
the nation. 1t is the franked postcard TO
Chairman Hurley, which will be the me-
dunn through which 8 silipyard enroll
ment button and an enrolment certlf-
cate will be forwarded to each man.
Reports from all over the country are
pouring into the Council of National De
tense and the Public Service Reserve
Headquarters as to the number OF men
enrolled. These reports indicate that by
the end of this week most of the men
needed Will have been enrolled

DELIVERING PA6 kAGES COSTS
SIS ,000, 600 A YEAR

Ida Tarbell, the famous writer, says
in the February " oman Home Compan-
ion. in an article about women carrying
their own packages and ordering more
scnsibly:
The cost in men and money OF thought
less ordering is staggering Since the
Government turned its attention to thus
matter, various careful investigation
have been made, with a result that really
ought to make us all ashamed of ourselves,
that is, if we have any feeling at all, as
most people have, fer the oderlv, efficient
doing OF things. One careful research
body declares that III the ordinary retail
grocery stores of the country the expense
of delivery is three per cent OF the net
sales. 1t was found that in Washington
City seven and one fourth per cent of the
gross sales of all products was spent IN
delivery.
"The Commercial Economy Board a
committee of the Council for National
Defense, has been pushing the problem
of delivery reforms the hardest II
declares that we could easily release half
the men, the money and the equipment
employed in delivery if We would set
about il in an intelligent and determined
fashion
Something of what this means will be
seen If we consider what it takeN simply
TO take care of the work of the retail
grocery stCras of the country There are
more than 200, 600 Of these shops They
employ over 100, COO men in deliveries,
and as many wagons and trucks The
cost of the business is something like

RED CROSS WORK
TOTALS $79,45O,727
Expenditures For Foreign Relief
$44,657,795, Two-thirds
Going to France.
WASHINGTON. Feb.


The magnitude of the work undertaken
by the Red Cross War Council is disclosed
in statement made public by the council
listing all the appropriations made for
war and other relief work up to Jan. 9,
1918 The statement gives for the first
time birds eye summary of the distribu-
tion of funds in France, Belgium, Russia,
Rumania, Italy. Serbia, Great Britain,
and other foreign countries; also Tor army
and navy base hospitals and medical work
camp service, and other missions of relief
and mercy.
These appropriations show total Of
S44 ,657, 1852 for foreign relief, $2,6I2,-
532.60 for United States relief, and $24,-
323, ,lSi.l2 for supplies, either for for
eign shipment or for distribution or re-
sale to chapters in this country.
This latter item includes 81 ,063 ,649 IL,
which is also included in the 8O,5l9, :
25960 for work in France, as we'll as
81 ,2SS,4l7 for material for resale to
chapters. 1t may thus be considered as
working fund and as liquid asset
rather than an expenditure. All appro-
priations from the Red Cross War Fund
up to Jan. 3, 1918. amounted to N3, =
from the general fund and the mlscella-
uSuun tuiu, the totl appropriations Ntfb
$40 ,450, 727 .35.
The total appropriation for admins
tration al National Headquarters and
at division headquarters amounted to
81 ,2S9, ,292 for the last six months. This
Includes $3.50, 900 for divisional admins
tration expenses and s250,0O0 donated
for telegraph and cable service by the
Western Union Telegraph Company
the latter item extending over n CON-
siderably longer time. These appropria-
tions did not come out of the War Fund,
but are more than covered from the
portion OF membership dues received at
National Headquarters. These member
ship dues, which more than paid for all
administration expenses, were received
before the recent membership drive was
made. In other words, no expenses of ad-
mInistration in the United States were paid
for out of the Red Cross War Fund. All
administration ls more than met by
membership dues. Thus every dollar con-
trlbuted for relief goes TO relief.

One night there was a great cornmotion
in the work basket on the table, tho
threads left their spools 10 see what wal'
going on and became SO entangled IN the
quarrel themselves that all the colors we're
in q perfect snarl the next morning. IL
began by the Pin boys saying that their
sharp little sisters the needles we're the
very brightest and most useful things
in the basket and that they were the next
in the order Of usefulness.
'"rhat is not true. said the scissors,
"I am the sharpcst thing in this basket,
and, az for being bright, why At would
take n hundred of your sister needles
to be az bright az one Of Our family. j

The scissors snapped with click OF
anger as he finished speaking and hoped
out of the basket and stood on his points
on the floor with a look OF defiance winch
quickly brought the needles up from
the cushion on their points TO defend
themselves.
"Tiow dare you make such a ciaimI'
they asked 1--WE certainly are the
sharpest and brightest articles IN the work

Versailles Council Sees No Real
Hope in Speeches Giving
Peace Terms.

London. Feb. 4.-The Supreme War
Council. which met at Versailles, finds
20 approxima alton IN the speeches of the
German chancellor and the Austro-Hun-
rarian foreign minister regarding the
terms Of the Entente Allies and has
decided 10 continue the vigorous prose
cution Of The war This official an
nouncement was made here last night. 4
summary of the official report OF the
Versailles War Council says:
The council was unable 10 find IN

moderate conditions laid down by the
Allies governments Under the clrcurn-
stances the council decided that the

the war until the pressure Of that effort
produced a change Of temper IN the
enemy governments, iustifylng the hope
AZ the conclusion of a peace based on
tn principles Of freedom, justice and re-
spect for International law.
The council arrived at complete
lnanimity OF policy on measures for the
prosecution OF the wal"
