'1f you see an Englishman run
ming down the street toward the tel
egraph office, ten to one, there is a
new born son at his house, and this
father is hurrying to the telegraph
office to make reservation for him
fifteen years hence at Eaton or
Rugby" At least this is the way
clever writer, who is describing what
these schools mean to the English
man, explains that particular Eng
lishman.
And why notl There is no event
that means more to a man than the
birth Of his SONG and certainly moth
ing that is going to mean more to
the son than the training he will re-
ceive. A reservation in a picked
school is not necessary to guarantee
this training to the American boy
but financial security is needed.
How many Of the twelve million
to be who open their eyes on Amer
lea every year can count on this
training? How many of them will
be numbered in the new aristocracy
of the men who know, the empire
builders of 1910? These builders
will be a class of trained men, and
the class which the citizens of to-
morrow will enter depends largely
on the fathers of today.
The father who dreams great |

things for his little son will begin
now to invest a part of this years
prosperity in the future of the boy.
The Government has made this in
vestment particularly easy by plac-
ing within reach of all short term
securities bearing high rate OF in
terest. Now that the issue of War
Savings Stamps and Savings Secur-
tiles has been made permanent, the
college course may be insured by a
savings plan running through sew
eral years.
A simple plan for father who
has had a prosperous year calls for
the purchase of two one-thousand
dollar Treasury Savings Certificates
for the August Baby. This means
an investment Of only 1,676 at that
date and will yield $4,000, January,
1919. This sum reinvested will yield
$4,000 when the boy is fifteen. The
same result may be worked out
gradually by a plan that provides
for the purchase of one War Savings
Stamp a week or fifty year dur
in the next ten years.
Both Of these plans provide lib
eral investments for the boys
future. Much smaller investments
would help him towards the goal
Ten Savings Stamps a year for the
fifteen years would mean $1,000 to
him. Any young American with
fighting blood in him would have a
try at college with that sum in
hand.
Today is the time to plan for the
future of the baby boy. Will your
son enter the class of empire build
ers of 1910? Government securi-
ties offer you a chance to provide
him with the requisite college cred
its.

goal in view is greater efficiency in
production.
The campaign will be the first or
ganized crusade in a large country
to improve all live stock simulta-
neously. 1t will interfere in no way
with any work in live stock improve
ment now being conducted, but
makes all TIE work more definite
and effective by providing official
recognition for progressive breeders.
The campaign will he supervised
from the Department of Agriculture
in Washington, and in each State by
the State agricultural college. Coun
ty agents and other field workers of
the Department of Agriculture and
of the State colleges will handle the
campaign locally. Every live
owner actively operating and keep
ing and using none but pure-bred
sires of good quality will be given
an emblem as an official recognition
of meritorious effort.

This is the slogan of a national

announced by the United States De-
partment of Agriculture, working in
cooperation with the State agricul-

The campaign looks forward to the
future food needs of this country's
increasing population and results
from long and careful observation
of the livestock industry in this
country, and was planned after ex-
tensive consultation with specialists
and breeders. The plan is to hasten
the replacement of the multitude of
scrub domestic animals in the United

stock, and also to improve the quail
ity of pure breds themselves. The

EXPRESS CHARGES EQUAL
TOTAL VALUE OF GOODS

Investigations which have recently
heen made by the Associated Ad-
vertising Clubs of the World, Of New
York, to determine the fairness of
advertisements published by So
called mail order grocery houses,
have developed some interesting
facts with relation to the Saving
which the buyer is supposed to en-
joy.
A Los Angeles man answered such
an advertisement in a local newspa-
per and ordered $199 worth of
goods. Express charges were $1.S5,
and when he submitted the merchan-
disc to a Los Angeles grocer, the
latter offered to duplicate the order
ont of regular stock at $1.S5.
These NAH order houses, say Of
ficers of the advertising association,
should not be confused with legiti-
mate mail order houses which oper-
ate upon the principle of winning
friends and building permanent
trade. Indications are, say associa-
ton officials, that "once over" is as

REMAINS OF HESSIAN
CAMP ARE UNEARTHED
Workmen in New York Find
Fireplace and Flooring
of Hut.

Workmen ~excavating at Broadway
between One Hundred and Sixty-ninth
and One Hundred and Seventeen
streets unearthed, II feet below the
surface of the lot, the open fireplace
and flooring of a house. Reginald p.
Bolton and William S. Calder, men,
bers of the New York Historical So
ciety, who we're summoned, declared
the ruin to be a section of one Of 40
huts used by Hessian soldiers during
the Revolutionary war.
Further digging by the workmen.
under the supervision of Mr.. Bolton,
brought to view several gold buttons
on which were stamped the Hessian
coat of arms. Several bullets were
also dug up.
The members of the New York His
torical society say that, according to
records, some 40 huts, each about II
feet square, were built on the site,
and that further digging will no doubt
unearth three rows of the houses. Ac-
cording to Messrs. Bolton and Calder,
the nuts lOTLutu Tie 1CDciuI fOh LUZ
OPP Camp" and were occupied by the
Hessians until 1779.
The fireplace unearthed is still In
good condition, having been made of
round cobble stones. Though the floor
ing of the hut Is rotted, the thickness
of the boards shows the huts were built
carefully and strongly.
"The Memorial History of the City
of New York." published In 1892 by
the New York History company, tells
of an engagement In the vicinity OF
where the ruins were dug up. Here,
according to the history, General
Washington fought a bloody battle
with General Won Donop's Hessians
and a British regiment. The fighting
took place along the Hudson and ex'
tended far into Harlem Heights, where
Washington retired to await fresh
troops. 1t is believed that the Hess
ians built the huts below an en-
bankment and, hidden by a ledge OF
rock and brush, established their
headquarters.
