Tribute to Citizen soldiery.

He pays a general tribute to the
citizen soldiery. however, in closing
his report. in the following words:
"The National Guard, as organized
unGer the national defense act of
June 3, 1916, and drafted August 5,
1917, has passed into history as a Ma
tional Guard organization and is now
a federal force. In closing this part of
the report, in justice to the National
Guard, attention is called to the fact
that two years after thee passage of
the act of June 3, 1915, eighteen divi-
sions, composed almost entirely of
National Guard. were furnished in the
present emergency. All>but three of
these divisions are now in France.
MANY individuals have received
decorations from the allied govern
ments for gallantry in action. From
the newspaper and official reports
some of these divisions since July Is
have met and defeated, in the Sois-
sons-Rheims salient, the best forces
that Germany could produce. These
eighteen divisions mean approximate
ly 100000 fighting men-a real tangi-
bic asset to this nation. Their military
value is admitted by the soldiers Of
Europe. both friend and foe. 1t is a
pleasure for this bureau to tender the
National Guard this acknowledgment
of their services"

Apples, Oranges and Most

Washington is abundantly supplied
with apples of all kinds and with Flori-
da oranges. Indications are that every
housewife in the city will be able to
have an ample supply in her home
during the holiday season. without
fear of using all her. Christmas money
AT the present prices oranges and

chased at from to10 cents each. Food
table apples of less attractive appear
ance may be purchased at<fp6m 20 to

ties offered by dealers at from to

Orange Crop 1Enormous.o
For more. than a"week Washington
has been reaping some ofsthe benefits
from the enormous orange crop. This
fruit is now selling at prices ranging
from 81 to 60 cents dozen. Even
to top price, which is for the larger
and higher grade oranges, is consid-
erably less than the exorbitant prices
this fruit was bringing in Washington
about three weeks ago.
Grapefrufts, too. are plentiful and
of splendid quality. They average
and 10 cents apiece. California grapes
have been normal in quantity, but
have varied greatly as to quality.
There was a large supply of poor
quality grapes on the market last
week which sold at bargain prices
along wholesale row. Tangerines are
becoming more plentiful. but the
California oranges have not been
overabundant and have been espe-
cially high in price.

NO LACK OF ROOM
AT SOLDIERS HOME.
Gen. Young Sees No Demand
for New Equipment Due
to World War.

According to Gen. S. NJ B. Young.
governor of the Soldiers Home. in this
city, in his annual report to the War
Department, there are now 1888 in
mates on the rolls of the institution.
The present war undoubtedly will in
crease that number, he states.
An investigation shows that the
home can care for more than 1000
additional men in dormitories and hos
pitfalls comfortably without crowding.
Therefore Gen. Young says there is no
necessity for even considering the sub
ject of the construction of additional
dornitories or additions to the hos
pital to meet possible consequences Of
the war.
Decrease of Benefciaries.
I Since last year there has been de-
crease of 1S9 beneficiaries, largely due,
Gen. Young says, to outside demands
for all kinds of labor. Many of the in
mates obtained employment as watch
men and messengers in the executive
departments. Others received increas-
ed pensions which enabled them TO
maintain themselves outside of the
home. Current expenses for all pur-
poses during the past, year amounted
to $6S6,376 and the average cost per
man per month was 1851. 1t is stated
that the increased expense was due
to the increased cost of supplies of all
kinds. The permanent fund of the
home now amounts to $S.294,564.
In an accompanying report Acting
Inspector General w. T. Wood recon-
mends that provision be made for
training younger members of the home
in vocational rehabilitation along lines
contemplated by the federal board for
vocational education, so that they may
have some useful trade or occupation.
Gen.. Wood says that that is important
on account of the probable increase
in the membership of the home as a
result of the recent war.

All of the above organizations have
taken an active part in field opera
tions on the other side" and have
acquitted themselves with honor. The
first and second companies of the
District Coast Artillery were assigned
to stations in this country, the first
company becoming Battery D of the
Goth Coast Artillery Regiment and
the second company becoming the 9Th
Company of the Potomac Coast De-
tense Command.
The strength of the District Ma
tional Guard, when mustered into the
federal service. is stated by Gen.
Heavey as ia officers and 2,215 men.
