Need Land At Camp Dix

Commissioners appointed this week
nv the United States Court at Trenton
to set valuations on land needed by he
Government for its permanent mill
fary post at Camp Dix anticipate no
onnosition from farmers who are ask
ed to give up their homesteads. The
condemnation proceedings, it is said,
are agreeable to land owners, who are
willing to sell, but have not been aole
to agree on the price.
The Commission has already organ
ized. The members are former Judge
William D. Lippincott, of Moorestown;
Mavor Alfred l. Davis, of Pemberton,
and John P. Hutchinson, OF Borden
town. In addition to the land oecu-
MED by the camp the Government re-
mEres a big section into Ocean
County for a rifle and artillery range.
II is planned to return the old artll-
lerv range in the ear of the base hos
pital to its owners and to use the more
distant site in the pines, both for artll-
lerv and rife practice. The lands
which the Government will occupy ad-
ioin on the EAST the 4~0,000-acre tract
between Camp Dix and Lakehurst
Proving Grounds, which the Wan De
partment is considering as a possible
annex for Camp Dix.

A preacher who doesn't know how to

A racer who doesn't know how to race,
A mason who doesn't know how to

A doctor who doesn't know how to

And. since none of these are busy
men, ,
You will find them again and yet

Round the stove in Mendolsen's store,
Each talking freely and through his

Doing the one thing they are expert at,
Giving advice to farmers.

Punctuality

When | was young my soul was
tired. my heart was sore n hot; for
l was nearly always fired from every
job l got. l suffered many grlevous
shock before | learned to see tina one
o'clock is one o'clock, and three o'clock
is three. I'd loom up late for
work each day, and thought that fact
no crime; but when l went TO draw my
pay, l always was on time. The boss
would say, "At half past two, do this
or t'other chore;" and I'd reflect, That
stunt will do as well at half past four"
So l was always being fired, as you
will understand; no sooner was | nicely
hired than | was neatly canned. 1t
took me long to realize that prompt
ness is a thing that all the merchant
princes prize, and all wise poets sing.
1t took me long to grasp the truth that
heedlessness of time is fatal to asplr-
ing youth who'd reach a goal sublime.
I'd waste the golden hours to talk, and
seldom kept a date; if | We're due at
six o'clock, I'd make my bow at eight.
Then l resolved to mend my ways,
these facts were realized; and | lined
up with happy jays whose services are
prized.-Walt Mason.

when l arrived as a green immigrant
a good many years ago, | learned a
good lesson in hiring boys. He gave
me a Job because l picked up a bolt
of goods that happened to fall on the
floor near me. And | use a similar
test.
"The first time l advertised Boy
Wanted seven youngsters lined up
when | arrived to unlock the door. l
let them in, and then l purposely
knocked a piece of soiled paper off a
counter onto the floor. One lad pick
ed it up; six of the others paid no
attention to it. So l hired him and
found that he was as careful and reli-
able about other things as he was about
the piece of paper. | use that test
now; and only once have | been dis
appointed in a boy who responded to
it."

Some Blow

The old sea captain was smoking
comfortably by his freside when Jack,
his sailor son, burst upon him.
"Weather too rough" explained the
son. $50 we've put in for the day."
"Too r6ugh!" exclaimed Mr.. Tar,
with visions of his own days at sea.
"Why, sir, l was once sailing around
the Cape when a storm came on, and
it blew down the main-mast and the
mizzen-mast was swept away, but we
didn't ever think of putting in"
"Well, you see," exclaimed the son,
ssthis storm was so bad that it blew
the anchors off the captains buttons,
took the paint off the ships bows,
and
"Stop!" cried the old man. "You do
me credit, Jack-you do me credit!"-

FARMERS ROSE
TO EMERGENCY
What They Did to Win the War and
Save World From Starvation
Told BY Houston.

Washington.-fn his annual report,
issued Saturday, Secretary Of Agri-
culture Houston tells in brief way
how the farmers of America helped to
win the war and are saving the world
from starvation by maryelously In
creased production of foodstuffs. He
says the wheat crop for 1919 is esti-
mated at a million bushels over that of
1918, and that of 3OO,000,OO0 bushels
over the last years. In meat produc-
ton, also, the record figure of last
year will be exceeded, and the same
is probably true of milk, eggs and
poultry. Crop yields per acre, says
Mr.. Houston, show an upward ten
dency, due largely to better methods
and better machinery.
Among other recommendations made
by the secretary are: The building up
OF system of personal credit unions;
expansion of existing facilities and &C
tiyities for aiding farmers in market
| inc, continuation of present policy OF
federal participation in road building;
regulation and control Of stockyards
and packing houses; protection of con
sumers against misbranded and adul
terated feeds and fertilizers; increased
support by states for rural schools, ant
legislation for improvement of SAM
tary conditions and medical facilities

DANIELS ON WORK OF
UNITED STATES NAVY
Secretary's Annual Report
Relates at Length the Fine
Record of Sea Forces.

Washington.- The annual report OF
Secretary of the Navy Daniels, made
public Monday. is a long and chatty
relation of the efficient work of the
sea forces of the United States during
the great war and since the signing
of the armistice. Much space is de-
voted to the record made by the navy
in transporting troops to and from Eu-
rope, and full credit is given it for its
excellent work in actual warfare and
in cleaning up the great mine field
which it had laid in the North Sea.
AS for rehabilitation, Mr.. Daniels
believes this is being accomplished
without the sacrifice Of national
spirit, unity or force" He says:
Two fundamental principles have
been constantly borne in mind:
Il. There must be and there has
| been no loss of adaptability to new
and expected issues The readiness
! to hit, and to hit hard, which won the
plaudits of the allies at the very out
set, has been preserved in every de-
| tail OF change and REIMBURSEMENT. The
navy is returning to peace basis, but
it is conserving the power that enabled
it and will again enable it to meet
with unweakened sinews any crisis
that may arise. Security for the flu
ture, though an uncertain future, has
for a moment been lost sight of.
"2. There must be and there has
been no loss of symmetry or whole
ness is the naval organization. A re-
duced personnel has not been allowed
to mean Representatives. or dispropor-
ton in whole or in part. AS vast
machine, as a national organism, the
navy is in form and spirit unit, not
fraction"
The story of naval aviation is long
and interesting, but contains little that
is not already a matter of common
knowledge Like Secretary of War
Baker, Mr.. Daniels is opposed to the
creation of a separate air service.
Here is what the report says of a
matter that has aroused considerable
public anxiety:
"The attraction of higher pay in the
merchant marine has caused the navy
to lose many men, many petty officers,
and not a few warrant and commits
stoned officers. This has made it inn
possible to fully man all the ships.
This loss has been greater than num-
bers indicate, because those who have
left the navy were experienced and
, qualified, while the recruits now en-
listing must be framed before they
are fitted for the more important du-
ties. The high wages paid to machin,
: lists, electricians and other skilled men
in private industries has prevented the
navy's securing new men in the ratings
most needed. 1t is to be hoped con
, gress will increase the compensation
.. early sTt that many Of these men will
have a suitable inducement to re-enter
the naval service"
