TO BRING HOME
BODIES BURIED
ON ALIEN SOIL
Navy Department to Begin
Actual Work In Few
Months.

washington, February 9-Plans for
bringing home the bodies of all officers
sailors and marines now buried or for
eign soil are being worked out by the
Navy Department and the actual work
will be undertaken within the next few
months. The wishes of relatives, how
ever, win govern not only as to the re-
turn OF the bodies, but also as to their
Anal disposition. Those brought home
either will be sent forward for private
interment or buried in the Arlington or
some other national cemetery as the
relatives may decide,
The departments announcement to-
day expressed a preference for bring
ing home all bodies. 1t was pointed
out that as result of the careful
preparation made at the outbreak OF
the war II had been possible to return
the bodies of hundreds of those who
died overseas. In the case OF marines
and naval detachments serving with the
Army, however. this was not possible
and instead careful system OF perm
anent marking Of graves was main
tained. II the nearest of kin of any of
the men who gave their lives for their
country desire the dead will be left to
rest in France. probably in special pur-
chased American cemetery sites. where
perpetual care and recognition will be
assured.
The. departments statement said
that where bodies were brought home
for burial in national cemeteries full
military honors would be accorded
ana where private interment was de
sired the navy would prepay all ex-
penses up to delivery Of the casket to
relatives, and that the war risk insur-
ance bureau Of the Treasury would re-
fund actual burial expenses not ex-
seeding 800 in each case upon pre-
nentation OF the claims.
Relatives of the dead of navy ant

A limited number of officers and
enlisted men OF the Army of occupa-
ton will be given an opportunity to
visit Berlin by the inauguration soon
of a daily courier service between
Coblenz and the capital.

the slowness in transmission OF docu-
ments of Importance, Each courier
will be accompanied by an officer and
the trip will be made by express trains
between Cologne and Berlin, the run
ming time being about twelve hours.
Cologne is about two hours from Cob
lenz. Various lieutenants and captains

INSURE SAFE WATER SUPPLY

prepared by the United States Depart
ment of Agriculture.)
On any farm woodlot, grove, or
windbreak is highly desirable, not
only to supply fuel and small timber,
but for it's beauty and the protection
1t affords. If kept clean and free
from stock, such wooded area, an or
chard even, may be made to serve an
other useful purpose, that Of supplying
water, says Farmers Bulletin 941,
water Systems for Farm Homes"
Forest-covered lands conserve rainfall
and soil moisture, and In many in
stances afford ideal sources for farm
water supplies. The farmer, there
fore, who fences off his woodlot, or
part of 1t, or forests an inclosed area
and keeps it clean for water supply
purposes, is following closely the wise
policy of cities and towns which, to

Gather Wisdom From Others.

It's dangerous policy to consider
yourself above the other mans mes
sage. II you're so superior your fell
lows win never be content to let Won
sit In silence. Besides If you don't
want to listen to what's going on you
have no business there. Noise made
by you will interfere with the hearing
Oh those who do want to learn. You
owe IL to yourself and others to pay
attention or at least make it possible
Tor others to listen. Besides there are
Few people that can't learn from 9th
ers. Don't be prig. Remember anv
child can ask questions that will con-
found the wise. The ordinary speak
er may have ideas that need the polish
of a Gladstone. Yeu are always a
gamer when you get the other mans
best. 1t may be a help to you some
day.-Pennsylvania Grit.

WAYS TO ERADICATE
i SLUGS IN GARDENS
Insects Are Menace to Gardeners
and Mushroom Growers.
Poisoned Bait, Clean Culture and Use
Of Lime and Powders Recon-
mended to Destroy Destructive
Member Of Snail Family.

Prepared by the United States Depart
ment of Agriculture.)
Bait poisoned with arsenic, clean
culture In garden and greenhouse, and
the use Of lime and powders, such as
finely powdered salt and road dust.
are recommended as means of destroy
ing the spotted garden slug and other
injurious garden slugs.
The spotted garden slug, which fire.
quently becomes menace to garden
ers and mushroom growers, Is some
what wormlike In appearance, ranges
in length from 0ne-half inch to nearly
seven inches, and varies In color from
a yellowish gray. or brown, mottled
with black, to nearly black. 1t thriyes
in damp. dark locations, such as under
old decaying boards and logs, In cell
lars and creameries, along hedges and
beneath damp refuse. 1t Is particu-
larly fond Of lettuce. tomatoes, peas,
beans and other vegetables when
grown either under glass or In the
open. and frequently causes damage In
mushroom beds, to celery during the
bleaching process, and to vegetables,
especially potatoes In storage. 1t re-
mains under cover until nightfall,
when it comes out to feed, and re-
turns to the same place before morn,
ing. leaving trail of sticky mucus.
The common toad Is among the
slug's few natural enemies. Owing to
its habits Of feeding by night and con-
cealing itself during the day. the slug
Is very difficult to control. Spraying
with arsenicals Is impractical, because
slugs avoid most poisonous substances.
Boiled or baked potatoes sprinkled
with white arsenic have been found
effective as poisoned bait. In mush-
room houses the most effective remedy
is to surround the beds with border
about two inches wide. using lime,
salt, or road dust, which prevents the
slugs from passing. Cleaning ssp the
hiding places Of the slug and sprink-
ling lime, which Is the standard rem
edy for slugs, about infested areas, is
the best treatment In gardens and
greenhouses.

HAS FAD FOR COLLECTING
Anything Odd or Curious, San Fran
cisco Man 10 Eager to Add to
His Possessions.

II met man In San Francisco who
goes In for collecting odd things on a
large SCALE" said traveller. HE has,
to begin with, several ropes which
nave been used to hang celebrated
criminals. In the same room are a
number Of menus obtained from hotels
In various parts of the world. He
places considerable value on several
corks which have been pulled from the
bottles of wine used on the tables of
weii-known persons, and dozen book
dedications are considered an impor-
tant feature Of the collection. Some
OF the autographs In the collection
are highly priced because they re-
Quired the expenditure of not a small
sum OF money and quite little time.
During his travels In foreign lands the
collector picked up the thigh bone of
Syrian giant, chameleon of Bar
Dary, great African lizard and a
rose which was said to be 100 years
old. He even turned his attention to
Deans, and has ten Chinese beans
which are not familiar to the people
of this country"

est IN securing the largest amount of
production from given amount of
labor, having due regard to the health,
safety. opportunities for rest, recre-
alton and development of the work
ers; for IL there is nothing produced,
there will be nothing to divide; II
there is large amount produced,

and the interests of the employer and
the employee only diverge when 1t
comes to a division Of that which has
been mutually produced; and II they
are wise In their generation, when that
divergence takes place they will sit
down around the council table and
endeavor to work out the problem on as
nearly just basis as the circumstanc-
es surrounding the industry will permit.
/ do not believe that any country
owes any man living; but ! do be-
lieve that every country owes every
man an opportunity to earn a living.
To place men at work on any job,
where the results from 1t are not
needed, Is just so much waste of
time and energy and man-power. But
there is a tremendous amount Of
work, a tremendous amount of i'm
provement that is needed; and so
that the minds of our workers will not
be fertile fields for the propagation
of false philosophy it is our duty to
see to it that these activities are now
engaged in to the fullest extent.
We have visions of industrial &C
tivity In the near future. All Of the
wars that have been engaged In from
the beginning of the development OF
the factory system until now have
been followed by periods Of indus
trial activity. Now. with the vast
amount of destruction of life and OF
property that has taken place in this
war, as I visualize the situation. once
we get back into a regular postwar
swing, there will be at least decade
of Industrial activity, period in which
the false PHILOSOPHERS Of Bolshevism
viii find no foothOld, and where we
can go on working out our social
problems, our economic problems and
our Industrial problems after careful
consideration Of each OF them, as they
are presented, and thus move onward
in an evolutionary way to that higher
sphere that our country La destined
to occupy.

U. S, A GOOD FINANClER
other Nations Cash Hops to Pay
Liberty Loan interest.

other Nations Cash Hops to Pay
Liberty Loan interest.
Uncle Sam has done some clever
financing in this war. Almost one
half of the interest due to patriotic
Americans subscribing to the Liberty
Loans, including the Victory Loan,
will be paid by interest which Uncle
Sam, as a result of judicious credits,
will collect from foreign governments.
With the Victory Loan included the
United States will face annual inter-
est payments of about $1,100.000,0 900.
This money goes into the pockets of
American investors But something
like $5OO,OOO,OOO of 1t will be offset
by the interest payments which the
big European powers must make to
Uncle Sam.
Great Britain Is debtor to the United
States in the sum of $4,175. 961, 900.
She pays about $2O5,OOO,0O0 a year
interest on her loans. France has
loans totaling $2,436, 427, 900 and her
interest payments to Uncle Sam are
about 1921, 100000 year. Italy with
loans Of $1,310,000,000 pays us about
$e5, 100000 a year In Interest. The
smaller powers also swell the total.
All Of these loans were negotiated,
of course, on the best of security and
they are doing big share In tighten
ing the taxation out of which the In
terest on Uncle Sans own borrowings
must be paid.

"We have room for but one nag, the
American flag, and this excludes the

much as it excludes any foreign flag
Of nation. to which we are hostile.
and we have room for but one

Mere Comfort Bill is Million Dollars
Week.


. Week.
Hospital facilities for the care of
1861 sick and wounded soldiers are
available in army hospitals, according
to the February report of the Surgeon
General of the Army.
This is one testimonial TO the Yanks
which the American people can proper
ly insure through the Victory Liberty
Loan. At the rate charged in the hos
pitfalls of the country, 81 day Is re-
quired to maintain each bed. In one
week the total for maintenance of SOL
diers' beds would, on the same basis.
reach three-quarters of million dol
lars.
Many Of our sick and wounded boys
require special treatment so that the
expense Is likely to be greater than
the low daily rate quoted. Then, too,
only a part of the sick and wounded
have reached US.
The Victory Liberty Loan which the
people of the United States are going
to put over with whoop will provide
the very best care and treatment for
every soldier, sailor and marine who
needs attention. Your mind can be
easy on that score when you subscribe
to the Victory Loan.

The man with brains in his head is
good listener even If he doesn't
know what men are talking about. It's
q pleasure to listen when you're inter-
ested. The next best thing is to act
as though you were. That does not
mean that you are to act the hypo-
critic. 1t means that you are to put
yourself at attention and the chances
are that you viii become interested.
You just must learn to get interested
In what concerns the world. Disregard
what interests others and thereby you
make confession that does not count
to your credit. So even If you can't
confess the most lively interest, find
out what there is about the thing thds

LEND OR BE TAXED.
WHICH,

"The war will not be over until
the United States government
has honorably met every commit
ment made in order to win the
war"
This Is the declaration of Car
ter Glass, Secretary Of the Treas
ury. In plain words, we can't cry
quits until we pay off our debts.
There are two ways of securing
their payment. One way is with
money lent by the people to the
government. The other way is
with money taken from the people
in the form of taxes by the gov
eminent.
