Transports to Improve
Pacific Mail Service

With the sailing of the army trans
port Great Northern for San Francisco
yesterday, announcement was made
that the ship and her sister craft, the
Northern Pacific, are to be used per-
manently in the transport service on
the Pacific. The Northern Pacific will
follow the Great Northern to the west
coast in about six weeks, both vessels
making the passage through the Pana-
ma Canal.
Their regular route will be from
San Francisco to Honolulu, Manila,
Vladivostok and thence to Nagasaki,
Guam. Honolulu and San Francisco.
When the American forces are brought
out of Siberia they will come on these
craft, which have made an unusual
record in the transport service to and
from France. They will be able to
make the trip from San Francisco to
Manila in fifteen days, thus improving
the mail service between those ports.
These ships were purchased by the
army from the Great Northern Rail
road Company at the outbreak of the
war. They were among the largest
craft on the Pacific and are oil burners.

Guard Association Calls
Training Bill Prussian
Says 1t Provides for COnscrip-
ton of Citizens in Time
Of Peace

WASHINGTON, Aug. 23-The Cham
berlain-Kahn bill, proposing six months
compulsory military training for all
youths between the ages of 18 and 26,
was characterized as "crude and incom-
plete" and patterned after the "Prus-
sian system" in statement issued
here to-day by the organization COM
mittee Of the National Guard Associa-
tlon of the United States, of which
Colonel John B. Rose is chairman.
The effect Of the bill, particularly the
provision to create "home guard" or
an organization which those who had
competed training might enter as an
alternative to being subject to a years
peace-time service in the army, would
be to destroy the National Guard" the
statement SAID.
The provision for years service in
the regular army after training was
criticised as meaning transcription for
our citizens in time of peace" The cost
OF the system, estimated in the state
ment at between one and half and
two billion dollars annually, the COM
mittee declared to be prohibitive.
The plan was branded as "Prussian-
istic' because 1t puts the whole sys-
TEN" under control Of regulations to
be adopted by the General Staff.

Quentin Roosevelt Post
Formed at Oyster Bay
Special Correspondence

Special Correspondence
OYSTER BAY. Aug. 23.-More than
three hundred veterans of the world war
met here tonight to organize Quentin
Roosevelt Post of the American Legion.
The boys of this village, fifteen in num-
ber, obtained permission from the ma
tional headquarters of the legion to
name the post after the youngest son of
the former President. Lieutenant Roose-
welt was one of the first to enlist from
the village, and was the first local boy
to give his life.
At the meeting tonight committees
were appointed to suggest permanent
officers. Lieutenant Colonel Theodore
Roosevelt addressed the boys, with many
of whom ne had gone to school. He ex-
planned that the legion was a non-par-
titsan organization and that it had been
formed to benefit the veterans along the
lines of the veterans associations of
other wars.
Americanization, he said, of all people
in this country was desired and he
hoped the American Legion would estab-
lish a standard which future generations
would follow

TO KEEP PERMANENT
PASTURES STOCKED
Hogs Relish Grasses When the
Leaves Are Young.
Good Plan to Have Some Other Stock
Eat Coarser Plants-Safe to Craze
Shotes at Rate Of Ten to
Fifteen to Acre.

prepared by the United States Depart
ment Of Agriculture.)
Hogs do not relish grasses except
when the leaves are young and tender.
Hence 1t is necessary, for the best re-
suits, to keep permanent pastures we'll
stocked. 1t is usually advisable to
have some other stock in the pastures
with the hogs to eat the coarser plants.
Cattle are best suited for this purpose.
Moving the pasture in late spring
should be practiced II the plants be-
come too far advanced.
In most cases 1t Is advisable to have
some Of the best supplementary for
age crops to Craze in addition to the
pasture. A safe rule is to have at
least one acre Of good permanent pas
ture to each brood SOW kept. OF
course this acreage could be reduced
or the number Of hogs increased where
a complete succession Of supplement-
airy forage crops is raised or where
the land Is very productive. A greater
area should be allowed II the grazing
is poor.
The carrying capacity Of the various
supplementary forage crops varies
widely, according to the growth of the
crop. As a rule 1t Is safe to Craze
them at the rate Of ten to fifteen 100
pound shOtes to the acre. A greater
number will shorten the grazing Pc
Rod, and fewer animals will length

The enamel should be applied with a
