WOULD GIVE MEN
CHANCE. WEAR MEDALS

New army uniform regulations and
specifications are now in course of
preparation, says the War Depart
ment, and pending issuance the fol
lowing regulations governing the wear
ing of medals and decorations have
been promulgated.
Medals and decorations heretofore
have not been allowed on the service
uniform. They were intended for full
dress and dress uniforms only. Since
the dress and blue uniforms have been
abolished some chance must be given
officers and men to show what they
have won. Only the ribbons represent
ing medafg and decorations were SUP
posed to be worn on the field and
service uniforms, as well as campaign
badges.
In the field it is now optional with
the individual whether he shall veal
his ribbons on his uniform, but he
cannot wear medals.

A barrel of rats is not a pleasant thing to contemplate, but 1t is what Maj. O. D. Hammond, quartermaster corps, United States army, used to have to look upon every day in the great Bush terminals, Brooklyn, used by the war department for storing clothing and subsistence for the over seas forces. At first, he saw them scampering around over everything, gibbering and crawling and cutting. Then he saw them, day after day, heaped up in barrels. Then, finally, he saw them dwindle until only about dozen a day could be found in the whole Tarehousing plant, eleven blocks long and from one to three blocks deep. That was after he had carried out trapping campaign ac- cording to plans furnished by the United States department of agricul- ture.
 The war department took charge of the Bush terminals Jan. l, 1918. Some of the buildings, 1t was found, were from 25 to 30 years old. Every time a door was opened into a warehouse, the scurrying of rats and mice could be heard and signs of them were ap- parent everywhere. It was evident that unless something could be done to get rid of them serious damage would result to subsistence supplies, such as flour, meal, corn, rice, oats, bacon, and even clothing.
 The officer in charge applied to the United States department of agricul- ture for assistance; with the result that an expert from the bureau of biological survey was detailed. After making an Investigation, he recom- mended that six or eight gross of mod ern rat traps be purchased and that four men be put to work trapping ths rats.
 Maj. Hammond, in a recent letter to the department of agriculture, says that the plan was immediately put in operation, and was followed through out the year. At first, the day's catch would net barrel fru of rats and mice. At the end of the year, only an occasional rat or mouse could be caught, amoGnting to not more than a dozen a day in the entire plant Haj. Hammond estimates that prob ably 5O,000 rats were taken during the year and that the total loss to stores, after the trapping campaign was begun, did not exceed $50.
 The bureeu.of biological survey of the department of agriculture .has de voted great dea; of effort to devis- ing ways Of trapping and other means of destroying rodents in warehouses, and the knowledge thus gathered, with particular advice in individual cases, Is available for the protection of stored products.

WORK OF PLANT INVENTOR
His Skill Produces Variations That Nature Would Require Thousands
 ofiYears to Accomplish.

With alwatch glass and fine cam el's-hair brush the plant inventor per forms miracles. He causes more changes hn six generations than Nature, unaided, would produce in 100000 years. Two plants may be growing in his fgarden, native of countries sep arated1 by continents. Their struc- lures, habits, hereditary tendencies and identities have been preserved through thousands of years. The plant inventor takes the pollen fronf one, transfers 1t to his watch glass, carries it to the other, and from the glass transforms 1t to the4 bloom. The resultant seed is -sown. The new plants may resemble one plant or the other, or they may be like neither, or they may be the veriest monstrosi- ties. There are thousands of disap- pointments for one success in the work.
 Luther, Burbank chose one seeding out of 5000 when he invented the primusberry. The rest were remorse- lessly destroyed. The new primus- berry is a crciss betweenNthe raspberry and the blackberry, but has a fruit much larger and finer than either. Mr. Burbank has produced 100000 vari- cites of plun1s., 6O,OOO peaches and nee tarines, 800 almonds, 5000 walnuts, 5000 apples, ,2,0OO grapes, 2,OOO pears and thousands of different kinds of berries, flowers and vegetables in equal profuslon.

Sometimes the rookie sailors-we call them boots because they always draw rubber boots at the training stations-don't savvy it, eith- CT. Now, you know, in the navy the little smoke stack from the galley or kitchen on a ship Is nicknamed the Charlie Noble after some old sea cook Of long ago. Well, on my ship one day we tells rookie that Charlie Noble said he was a fathead and a dub. The rookie got sore as a pup and went hunting all over the ship for Charlie Noble Finally he goes up to the captain himself and complained of being called names by Charlie. "Re- port to the bo's'n, said the skipper. Ask for a pot of red paint and tell him gave you permission to daub it all over Charlie-do a good job of it, too.' '"-New York Sun.

WEALTH IN BAMBOO GROVES
Their Cultivation In the Southern
 States Is Expected Soon to Be a Recognized Procedure.

One thinks more readily of an Amer ican farm with a wood lot than of one with bamboo grove, but bamboo groves may yet become common in the southern states, if the idea of "in- struct the farmer r' in the desirability of planting them makes reasonable progress. It. will be "a new idea to the farmer, and, he will have to think 1t over. Meantime the country has one important bamboo grove fiourkshing in the state of Georgia, where it stands in the custody of the United States department of agriculture, to serve as an object lesson. The young bamboo shoots provide an early spring gege- table, said to have "a flavor much like that of sweet corn and the stalks have a wide range of uses which should makej bamboo grove profit able. It is worth the farmers iconsid- eration, for example. that millions Of small canes. are yearly imported from Japan, and fishing rods made out or them, for which the United Stateslpays annually about $5,0O0000.

Water In the pesert.

The National Geographic Magazine gives some interesting accounts of the driving of cattle to the nearest port or railway, from the vast pasture lands of Australia.
 Two, three or even i've months may be required, says this magazlne. Un- less the season is favorable, 1t can not be done at all, for feed and water are lacking along the route. |. Stock routes are laid out and tended as carefully as wagon roads or railways. They head for the principal markets, or for the ends of railways that ex- tend into the arid belt. and wind across the country, taking advantage of all known water supplies. Streams, springs, billabongs and nsmma-holes are used, regardless of tho quality of the water, for almost any nQpid Is acceptable in the desert. When the distance between watering places is too great. or areas of feed are be- yond the reach of water, artificial supplies are provided and carefully watched Wells are dug, and reser- voirs and tanks are constPucted to collect rain water. Where other means fail, skeleton buildings with large roof area are provided to conserve the rainfall.

etADNEss IN THEIR HEARTS
Physical Discomforts Unable to Affect Soldiers Who Had Good Reasons
 for Feeling Happy.

'It was three o'clock in the morn lng," said the returned soldier as he recalled his departure from a training camp. "A cold rain was pouring down in torrents. The hundreds of soldiers who came from the barracks of the big army camp were in a most cheerful mood. All carried heavy loads. They seemed to pay little heed to the fact the ground was soggy and their feet went into the mud above their shoe tops. At other times, when they had been brought out into the cold rain, they had spoken in bitter language, but 1t was not so upon this occasion.
 Through the inky darkness the men tramped with their heavy luggage, the packs getting heavier as the wa ter soaked into them. They did not seem to mind the long hike, and they sang a little and laughed little de spite the fact their clothing did not turn the streams of water the skies above poured down upon them un- mercifully.
 Finally the commands of officers rang out in the darkness and the men were halted near railroad uacK- They stood there for more than an hour. The rain turned into snow. The cheerfulness among the men was not broken. Their laughter continued, and occasionally they would sing some familiar army song.
 At last a long train of passenger coaches was backed in on the track. In that machine-like manner of troop movements the men boarded the train. The last man had no more than left the ground when the train began nov ing, and soon was rumbling ana screeching through the darkness
 "Within the coaches the soldiers continued their singing and laughter although they were wet to the skin. They had a reason to be happy. That 'grand and glorious feeling finally had arrived. u1 4

Koran Brought Up to Date.

It is not surprising that most of the Arab population should be illiterate since the language used in writing and printing is literary Arabic, the very same in which the Koran was com posed 12 centuries ago. It has been preserved intact. while the spoken tongue has gradually changed, as spoken tongues will. Literary Arabic today Is about as much like the an- cfent language as Latin is like French Ninety per cent of the people do not understand the language in which the books are written.
 An interesting experiment has been begun by Rev. Percy Smith, mis- sionary in North Africa, who is trans lating the Bible and the hymns of the church into the ordinary speech Of the people, instead of in literary Arabic Herald.
