LITTLE STORIES OF BIG WAR
Men i'm Ranks Feel Petty Restric.
TONS ON Soldier Life.
BY Peter MCQUEEN, in Leslie's.

BY Peter Mcqueen, in Leslie's.
On certain sunny day l came
upon Sergeant Killikelly of the Bronx.
He was enjoying the fragrance of the
lilacs on the unrivaled Champs Ely
sees, cleanest and finest Of all the
boulevards of time. Killikelly was
not thinking of the marvellous vista
which his eyes beheld He was con-
cerned with how the election of 1920
would 60 in the Bronx. He averred
that no official who was responsible
for certain petty restrictions in the
soldier life could hope for Presidential
spurs i'm the district of the Bronx
Now sergeant" | said, what have
you experienced in war that makes
you take that view of military rul-
ings in our Army?" ''Pll tell you
what happened to me i'm the ArgOnne
fight. | had been under captain of
The National Guard, who was a very
faerGnd sensible man. When the big
row started on the Meuse-Argonne,
they sent us a 'Wagtail captain "a
West Pointer. He was all for rules
md 'etikwet.' Now, I had "a men in
trench; mud a foot deep. rhe
ferries sent in a barrage, and or$
poor fellow had his head shot %off
We stood it out, and after t$$ thing
WIS quiet a while, up cones INV cam
tain and he l9 - sur muddy boots.
Sergeant he said, why have not
your men got their shoes cleaned up?'
oh. hell, captain, I says, half these
fellows will be dead by night, so
what's the use of clean boots?'
That's INSTRUMENTATION shouted this
guy, so will you take a court-martial
or demotion?" 'Demotion I replied,
but change of captain So they
put me in the ranks, but when 1 got
to Paris and got a chance to sing for
the Army they made me sergeant
again, as an entertainer"
One big, square-shouldered bronzed
young doughboy was watching some
officers embarking at Brest. l got
into conversation with him. He was
cycling very sharply and cynically a
jaunty little second lieutenant who
was crossing the gangp1ank do you
see that little snipe of an officer?" my
soldier asked me. Well let me tell
you about him. He il go-day hick.
He was grocer's clerk, and I was
the grocer. Now, lock at him.
Wouldn't speak to the President.
They say the Germans don't know
they're licked. Maybe that il true;
but you can rest assured that when
1 get that boy back in Michigan and
get out o. this uniform he'll know he's
licked, all right"

THE PRINCIPLES OF SOIL MAN.
AGEMENT

IA Clear Understanding of the Prop
critics of the Soil Essential to Prof
liable Yields.
Successful farming depends to a
large degree upon. the proper SOIL
MANAGEMENT. To put the farm in a
condition to produce profitable yields
demands on the part of the operator
a. clear understanding of the proper
ties Of the soil. The soil is medium
for plant growth, and as such fur-
nishes water and plant food for the
growing crop. The moisture holding
capacity il all-important since water
il the means by which the plant IS
fed. The elements Of plant food be-
come dissolved in the soil water
which in turn is taken up by the
plant. Likewise, soil air i essen
tial to the development of the plant
as the roots must have oxygen. Il
the soil becomes compact or saturat-
ed with water the air is forced out,
shutting off the supply 50 necessary
to the life of the plant This IL
easily observed in the growing ri
corn. II the soil is a stiff clay, easily
packed by heavy rains the surface
Dact that air il not admitted freely
to the roots Of the plant, and rio rs
results will follow if the condition
is not relieved by thorough cultiva-
ton. If on the other hand, the oorh
il planted on a similar soil we'll
supplied with organic matter in the
form of manure or sod the ground
does not pack or run together so
easily and there is less danger OF
checking the growth OF the plants.
Every farmer knows the value OF
organic matter in putting his soil in
a state Of good filth. By filth is
meant the ease of working and the
readiness with which the soil is re-
duced to a fine mellow condition.
Organic matter as supplied by stubble,
sods, and manure, tends to make clay
soils more friable, more retentlVe OF
moisture and more fertile. To Sc
cure this effect the organic matter
must be more or less decOmposed in
the soil.
Lime is another agent that aids in
correcting the physical condition of
the soil. Clay soils become more
friable, more easily worked, and are
in better condition to admit ar
and moisture if they have been well
limed. The effect of lime and or
ganic matter on sandy soil is the
reverse, as il tends to hold together
the sand particles making the soil
more compact, which is desirable IN
this class of soils Both organic
matter and lime are necessary to
Bring about the best physical condl-
ton of the soil. From a chemical
standDoin the accomplishing organic
matter forms weak acids which act
upon the mineral constituents OF the
soil releasing the elements Of plant
food. When these acids become
abundant the soil becomes "sour"
and lime is needed to counterfeit the
acidity. Glover will not thrive on an
acid soil, hence it is necessary that
lime be applied i'm order to promote
the growth Of this most valuable
plant for soil improvement. Lime
assists also in reducing the organic
matter to condition that is of ser
vice to the growing plant.

"TIN cow FOR FRENCH BABIES.

Washington-Over in the Aisne,
Somme and Ardennes districts Of
France, there are thousands and thou
sans of babies who will grow up
in the belief that milk grows in little
tin cans, for in those districts the
babies 60 out to lunch daily with their
mothers, and are fed by the big "tin
cow" which the Red Cross maintains
there. 1t is virtually impossible to OBJ.
tain fresh milk there, for this area
withstood two invasions and two re.
treats by the Germans, and there are
no cows because there Is practically
no grazing for them.
In this emergency the Red Cross
not only promptly shipped in three
carloads Of condensed milk, but agreed
to furnish an adequate supply of con-
densed milk for these districts during
the next six months. With Laon and
st. Quentin as the distributing cen.
tres, local French committees supply
from twenty to thirty ruined villages,
each with more than its share of un.
dernourished infants. The mothers
bring their babies to a milk station
where they are daily fed, weighed and
given medical attention If required.

the state by the weakening our peo-
ple-is among US like a plague, de-
clared Cardinal MERCER, Primate OF
Belgium, and spiritual hero of the war,
in a statement made at National Red
Cross headquarters here. The Card
inal had called at the Red Cross head
quarters to thank that organization
in person for what the Red Cross had
done for stricken Belgium.
Two American agencies were espe'
cially singled out for enthusiastic
praise by His Eminence for what they
had done in Belgium-Mr. Hoover's
Committee for the Relief of Belgium
and the American Red Cross. His
Eminence also spoke cordially or the
work now Being done in Brussels by
the unit under the direction of the Ma
tional Catholic War Council
"Your American Red Cross is mag
nificent," said Cardinal Mercier, "and
the extent of its work and it's men,
bership is simply marvellous. ] am told
that your Red Cross has over twenty
million members! OF course without
such support from the whole American
people it would have been obviously
impossible to accomplish the wonder
full things your Red Cross did during
the war Such a national inspiration
should be captured and held for the
benefit of society. It is extraordinary
what can be accomplished where free
people all unite and work together
for their common good and for the
good Of humanity.
"The mothers and little children OF
Belgium are utterly worn out from the
long strain" continued Cardinal Mer
cier, discussing the four years of oc
cupation of Belgium by the Germans
"They must rest and play as much as
possible for a while, if the next gen
Grafton is to be equal to the tasks thai
await it,
1T was hardest of all to watch tht
