for Feeling Happy.

Ing" said the returned soldier as he
recalled his departure from a training
camp. "A cold rain was pouring down
In torrents. The hundreds of soldiers
who came from the barracks of the
big army camp were in most cheerful
mood. All carried heavy loads. They
seemed to pay little heed to the fact
the ground was soggy and their feet
went into the mud above their shoe
tops. At other times, when they had
been brought out into the cold rain,
they had spoken In bitter language,
but it was not so upon this occasion.
Through the inky darkness the
men tramped with their heavy luggage,
the packs getting heavier as the wa
ter soaked into them. They did not
seem to mind the long hike, and they
sang little and laughed little de-
spite the fact their clothing did not

above poured down upon them I'M

FINALLY the commands Of officers
rang out in the darkness and the
men were halted near railroad track.
They stood there for more than an
hour. The rain turned into snow.
The cheerfulness among the men was
not broken. Their laughter continued,
and occasionally they would sing some
familiar army song.
''At last long train of passenger
coaches was backed in on the track.
In that machine-like manner of troop
movements the men boarded the train.
The last man had no more than left
the ground when the train began NOV
ing, and soon was rumbling and
screeching through the darkness.
within the coaches the soldiers
continued their singing and laughter,
although they were wet to the skin.
They had a reason to be happy. That
grand and glorious feeling finally had
arrived.
"They were going-home."

Ribbon With Picot Edqe.

Narrow MORE ribbon with a picot
edge is used on many dresses of chif-
fon as the only trimming, being either
of darker or lighter shade than the
chiffon and successfully replacing the
beads and bangles of which we have
wearied somewhat. A delightful pale
pink georgette frock has as its only
trimming bands of this narrow moire
ribbon of deeper rose shade, put on
in block design exactly as the beads
heretofore have been used. The belt
is made of several rows of ribbon, not
placed close together. but spaced so
as to reveal the lighter pink beneath.

Scrupulous care in preceding a re-

Poultry, always a matter of impor-
lance, is doubIy so now, in the opinion
Of fOOd-research experts. The greater
necessity for care comes, in the first
place, of the fact that there is a ma
uon-wide ice shortage. The second
important element is that following
the stress of wartime transportation,
the refrigerator equipment of the cOun-
Try is in rundown condition. The
car should be carefully examined, the
experts say, to see that it admits not
even a pin point of light. Then it
should be tested and, if it fall short of
standard, there should be no hesita-
ton about rejecting it and calling on
the railroad agent for a car that will
meet the requirements. Extreme care,
the experts believe, is essential just
now for the preservation of poultry in
transit, and the chief of the depart,
ment's food research laboratory has
Just issued the following definite in
formation as to how satisfactory re-
salts are to be attained:
Select Car Day Before Loading.
when the refrigerator car is set for
cling, enter it and with doors and
patches tightly closed look carefully
for any crack or point of daylight.
The car should be absolutely black
with not a pin point of light anywhere.
If there are distinct cracks around the
doors or matches, the car will not main
tain sufficiently low temperature and
should not be iced for the hauling of
dressed poultry or any other commod-
ity requiring ice and salt refrigeration.
Be sure also that the drain pipes are
open and in good working order.
"The selected car should be set for
icing at least "a hours before it is to
be loaded It's bunkers should then
be filled three-quarters full with finely
broken ice that is, no piece should be

Then, in order to make sure that the

man should stand midway between the
doors holding the thermometer about
4 feet from the floor until the mercury
has responded to the car temperature,
which ordinarily is accomplished in
from three to. five minutes, depending
on the quality of the thermometer. The
temperature of the car at this point
should not be above "a degrees f,

point, it is dangerous to load the car

ket, he should communicate with the
railroad agent and request car which
is able to refrigerate the dressed poul-
try properly.
"All refrigerator cars should be pro-
vided with a floor rack inches in the
clear, built of lengthwise stringers
made from by lumber and crosswise
Stats made from l by lumber, with

wise Stats are nailed to the lengthwise
stringers. They do not interfere with
trucking the load into the car. They
should extend across the doorway,
since it is this part of the car which
is hardest to refrigerate and swhere
air circulation is most needed. All
railroad owned refrigeratOrs as rapid

Trees, especially cone bearing trees,
seem to prefer newly eroded soil.
Steep slopes are exposed to cOmpara-
lively rapid erosion and here trees
do the best. Level ground indicates
old soil, old in the sense that it was
derived from rock, as a rule, longer
ago than soil found on steep slopes.
Old soil probably contains an excess
of soluble salts, too much for best
tree growth.
In the mountains one sees the steep
slopes clothed with trees, while the
occasional fiat spot is likely to be
bare of trees. The toughest areas on
the farm present the most favorable
localities for successful tree growing
