A note in the JourmoL Of the Depart

advent of the motor car, stable manure
is becoming scarcer every year., and it is
worth while for all who keep fowls to
save the u Even the small poul-
try keeper should methodically save
it, for a little concentrated manure
is a very handy thing to have for a small
garden. 1t should never be used fresh,
as it's value is about double when it has
been allowed to dry. Once dry, if not
wanted for immediate use, it is best stor-
ca in a barrel, mixing in a little SCOT
with a covering of dry soil placed on the
top. An excellent liquid manure can be
made by mixing some of the contents of
the barrel with an equal quantity Of SCOT,
putting it in a piece of sacking and soak
ing it in water for a few days. About
an ounce of dry manure and an ounce of
SCOT are usual sufficient for a gallon of
water to provide a liquid manure suita-

TANKS EXHIBITED
 BY HUN GATORS

COBLENZ.-How it feels to be exhibited in Germany will be told when Joseph Brown and Charles Knowlton, both of the 165th h. fantry, get back to New York where they lived before the war.
 Both have rejoined their regi- ment after imprisonment in Ger many since May 5, when a patrol they were in went out in search of Germans who were needed for information they might give. The patrol got the Germans but the German army got Brown and Knowl- ton and until recently the 165th Infantry knew nothing more about them. Both had come through the German lines after the armis- tice.
 After the German intelligence officer had despaired of getting from them any accurate information about the Americans, both men were sent out on a tour of Ger many. In city after city they were exhibited as specimens of the new enemy. To make them appear as excellent examples of the weddings the Germans had told their people the Americans were, they said they were half starved and otherwise brutally treated for month or more when they were thrown into an ordinary prison camp, remaining there until the end of the war.
