How He Got Needed umhrnlIa

W. NJ. Hughes, the premier of Aus
tralia. once came by an umbrella
through Illicit means. He Is fond of
telling the tale against himself.
While he was walking home one
pitch-black night a sudden storm
broke and, seeking shelter from the
rain. he FASTENED to the nearest door
way. After waiting there for a few
minutes. he spied a small boy coming
along with an enormous umbrella.
The premier, thinking the owner
might offer to share, called out sharp
ly: Hi, there. young man! Where
are you going with that umbrella"
The lad, startled at the sound which
apparently emanated from nowhere,
dropped the umbrella and fed up the
street as hard as his legs would carry
him. He vanished utterly, and Mr..

BUREAUS AVERT FIRE LOSSES
Of Foodstuffs Saved TO Farm
ers in California.

prepared by the United States Depart
ment or Agricuiture.)
Fire damage in California this year
is only 40 per cent of that of previous
years, fire underwriters state, due to
the work of fire companies initiated
by the farm bureaus. TO avert a
threatened loss Of foodstuffs through
fire, the bureaus organized local rural
fire companies in 3G6 farm-bureau
centers of the state. OF these, 257
companies purchased automobile trail
ers, containing fire-fighting equipment
for grain and grass fires, and 6,391
farmers enlisted in rural fire com.
panies which covered Il territory of
1902 square miles. The loss in Cali
fornia from grain and grass fires was
$750.000 a year before sabotage and
pro-Germanism increased the fire risks,
and it is probable that at least half a
million dollars worth of foodstuiTs has
been saved by these rural fire com.
panies.

Thousands of city people in the
southern states responded this year to
the campaign for more home gardens,
and it was largely with the products
produced in these city gardens that
the South was able TO feed itself.
An example of the success of the
garden work in the South is given in
the report of G. j. Miles, city garden
specialist of Tennessee, recently re-
ceived by the United States depart
ment of agriculture. Through the eff
forts of Mr.. Miles, cooperating with
all interested agencies, "a cities and
towns in Tennessee were syStematiCal-
ly organized in garden work. In these
"a cities there were 59S,550 gardens,
covering a total of 4,192 acres. In
the city of Memphis alone there were
29.912 gardens, covering an area of
1,02S acres. According to the report,
Knoxville had 10000 gardens. Nash
vile 5000, and Chattanooga 5000.

methods of organization and conduct
ing the work, "to encourage the utili-
Zation of back yards and vacant lots
for growing garden vegetables and to
confine operations to cities and towns
of the state over $500 population.
Plan Described.
sour first effort was to effect an or
%ganization in as many of the towns
and cities of the state as possible. The
general plan of organization follows a:
A mass meeting was called, to which
existing organizations, such as parent
teachers, council of defense, and bust
ness mems organizations, were eSpe-
cially invited. At this meeting a CEN
trail chairman was named to have gen.
eral supervision of the work of the
town or city. Associated with this
chairman is IA Committee composed of
one or more persons from each ward,
school district, or natural division of
the town.
1.-THE immediate work of this com
mittee was to take a garden census,
listing the back yards and vacant
lots suitable for gardening, the per-
sons who contemplated gardening, and
particularly those who desired more
space than they had at their command,
The Miller press. [volume] (Miller, S.D.) 190?-current, 1919-01-02

These latter at once were put in touch
with owners of vacant lots, and in
most cases were permitted to garden
these vacant spaces free of rent.
"In some instances. notably in Men,
phis and Chattanooga, this committee
listed the plowmen, and were able 10
reduce the rate of blowing from 50 an
hour to $3.50 or 81 per hour. Grow
ers of plants were also listed and
plants procured in large quantities
were furnished at a reasonable rate.
Problems Solved.
''Twenty-fOur cities and towns were
organized in this manner this year. 1t
has been my purpose to visit each OF
these organizations once a month u
spend a day and a night or more with
them. At night the committees, to-
gether with any others interested,
were called together for a conference.
At this conference garden problems
and plans for the month were as
cussed and plans for the o were
discussed. On the day following prac-
ticaI demonstrations were
