SCHOOL GARDENS SUCCESS.
Burlington Parents Interested Through
Children's Activities.

BURLINGTON, Oct 24-This years |
returns from the home gardens OF Bur
lington have been so satisfactory that
plans are being laid for more exten
sive operations in the back yards and
vacant lots next wear The campaign
for home gardens here began early in
1917 when the school commissioners
started the movement in the schools
with the expectation and intention
that it would reach the homes through
the children, For the initial project
10 acres of land were hired and di-
vided into individual plots which were
assigned to students desiring them.
The school commissioners furnished
seed. fertilizer and a specialist on gar
lening to instruct the pupils.
PUPILS were encouraged to have gar
dens of their own at home and to
arouse the enthusiasm Of their parents
and many did SO. The harvest was
pleasing one, and although the school
department lost several hundred dol
lars it felt satisfied with the achieve
ment.
This year the results of the initial
trial interested many citizens and %
acres were 0lIeu TOT dUulI SdIutHS.
This area made about $50 gardens of
about one-tenth of an acre each. The
school gardens were enlarged from 10
acres to 90 acres and great many
more children worked gardens. The
city garden census taken in midsummer
showed that about four times as many
! home gardens were under cultivation
| and that practically everybody who
could. had used all available ck-yard
and sometimes front-yard space, and
that the interest in the project was
widespread.
1t was not possible to ascertain the
exact amount of the various kinds OF
vegetables raised in backyard gar
dens by adults of the city, but from
the school gardens, 5000 bushels OF
potatoes were harvested, liz tons OF
squashes, 81 bushels of pea beans, 500
bushels of tomatoes, besides a great
amount of other vegetables

VALUABLE Y. M. C. A. WORK.
Being Done by Secretaries With Allied
Expedition to Siberia.

NLADIEOSTOK, Sept. 10 GORE
Spondence Of The Associated Press -
Demands upon tho. y. NJ. c. 4. secrcta-
ries who are accompanying the entente
nations in their expedition against the
BolSheviki in Siberia have been so
great that they have been compelled TO
enlist in Y. NJ. G.. A. service the con
valcscing Czechs and to utilize the vol
unteer service of several Of the Ste
vens' railway corps from the United
States. Virtually all the Y. NJ. c. A.
secretaries have been working eighteen
hours a day
Instead of an easy march throughout
the country, the allied expedition de-
veloped into fight mile by mile First
aid supplies were more pressing needs
than were Photographs, games. and ath.
letic equipment. The demands upon the
Y. NJ. G. A. canteen service were so
great that supplies which ordinarily
would have lasted month were ex.
haustcd in week. Cars have been sent
with each contingent of troops to the
furthest possible limit and from them
have been distributed free in times of
stress, hot tea, coffee, cigarettes, tohac-
90, chocolate, biscuits, sausage, and 9TH
or useful supplies.
This service is becoming indispensa-
bic to the men in the field. The Japa-
neSe soldiers appear to be as fully APP
preciativc rs their western brothers. a
report by Secretary Heald SAYS:
By n. m. japanese soldiers come
| knocking on the doors of the ears and
no refusal TO open quiets them. There
is no chance for the secretary in charge
to sleep after they begin, until the
| days work is over and that is rarely
| before ono the next morning. Sccreta-
RIGS find it impossible to get more thar
three to four hours sleep nightly. TIC
undress is novelty and food goes I'M
eaten because they cannot steal time
10 eat.
A refrigerator ear service has beer
added recently. Thirty minutes aftel
the doors We're opened, in the first in
stance, $500 bottles of cold soft drink
had been sold to and consumed by tn,
thirsty soldiers.

GRANITE INDUSTRY SAVED.

ment. II j NJ Jones, $. II. Jackson OF

ton OF the order which now has been an

START COMMUNITY LAUNDRY
Canton, O., Probably First City in
Country to Make the
Venture.

Canton, O.-This city is probably the
first in the country to have a COM
munity laundry. Residents of the
northeast section of the city have
formed an organization for the es-
Establishment of the laundry. Shares of
stock were sold at $40 each and more
than 300 stockholders are interested
In the venture. In connection with
the laundry the community plant will
operate a dry cleaning establishment,
hat and shoe cleaning shop and shoe
repair shop. While the plant will be
a profit sharing concern, the price Of
work, it is expected, will be held con
siderably below the regular prices to
stockholders.
