Garden on Boston Commons.

A demonstration garden has been
planted on the historic Boston Com
mons, and during the active gardening
season a small information booth is be
ing maintained. According to the re
port of a representative of the United
States Department of Agriculture, who
recently visited "A number of cities in
the New England States. the food-pro-
duction campaign in those States is as
active this year as it was during war
times. In many cities the schools have
attempted to include school-garden work
as a part of the campaign, but in Bos-
ton they are confining the work pri-
marily to giving instruction in garden
ing. In that city weekly conferences
are held for teachers and special in
struction in garden work is given.

Houses Scarce.


Oft I hear discordant slogans, hear
the loud and sad lament; men are wear
ing out their brogans hunting houses
they can rent. Every village, town,
and city sees the same discouraged
crew; and it seems to me a pity that
good houses are so few.
In my native burg, Empory, 1 see
women chasing round, and they tell
the same old story-house simply can't
be found. And the same sad word is
spoken everywhere / chance to roam;
from Topeka to Hoboken folks are hunt
ing for a home.
When they'rs sick and tired of chas-
ing, when their souls with woe are
filled, maybe they will do some bracing;
are higher now than ever, and the prices
won't slump back, and that man is
really clever who will build himself a
shack.
But the cost" hear men yawping;
and they put up thoughtless roars, for
they never have been shopping at the
modern lumber stores. Building goods
today are cheaper than all other goods
you buy; all commodities are sleeper
ask the lumber dealer nigh.
Moneyed men are often questing for
gold bricks. and dern the price; always
ready for investing in blue sky and
picked ice. If they'd build q lot of houses
they might dwell in Easy Street, where
the catawampus browses. and the
dingbat's song is sweet. Every time
they'd build a dwelling crowds would
come and still increase, crying, clamor-
ing, and yelling, begging for a five-year
lease.
There's no better proposition than
this thing of building homes, and the
fact should find position in the pluto
cratic domes.
And the man with modest bundle
should be renting nevermore; he should
take his wad and trundle to the lum-
ber dealers store.
There should be boom in building
such as we have never seen; palaces
with ornate gliding, modest homes, all
painted green.

PRUSSIANISM
 TO DIE HARD

WITH THE AMERICAN FORCES IN GERMANY, Oct, l3- By A. P.- An entirely new scheme for establish ing reserve army in Germany in an ticipation of some future opportunity to establish German military power is seen by some German newspapers in q plan they have just discovered and ex- posed.
 While the scheme is confined to only one regiment and so probably has no sanction from the War Ministry it is an indication, in the opinion of Am ercan mn,y officers who for eight months have been studying dcmobiliz- ation Of the German forces, of how hard PrusSian miHtariSm dies.
 The LightSchlag corps in WcStphal- ia, now the Sixty-sccond Rcichwchr (National Army) regiment of the %lst, RcichSwchr brgradc, has sent out cir cularS to all men who have served ia this volunteer unit since the ;hmisticc, urging them to sign a pledge to ans wcr to a call to the colors in the event of general disorder or a new revolu- ton. The Frcihcit, the Independent Socialist organ in Berlin, suggest; that the men responsible for the scheme really have in mind something more than suppression of disorders, the paper then quoting from the cir, cular as followS:-
 "Soon the time will come when the FaLherland will have need of every reSolute and proven arm"
 The circular, according to the news papers, says that the corps is orgmiz- ing a reserve" from among the best ot it's released soldiers, this reserve to be called into the service of the corps in time of need. Details are then given of the method Of issuing such a call. The "Freheit, in a recent issue, demanded to know who had giv- on the corps the right to establish such a reserve and 10 promise regular RcichSwehr or National Army pay to these "rcScrviStS" whenever called.
