68 storage houses constructed from
plans furnished by the United States
bureau of markets. A sweet-potato
exhibit car was arranged and moved

Demonstrates Approved Methods.
Exhibits illustrating approved mar
keting pactices were conducted in SIX
states. In most instances these ex-
hibits were in connection with state
or district fairs or at expositions OF
more than state importance. Colora-
dos potato shipments run from 1900
to 1850 cars year. OF this guam
tity, 40 per cent is moved during the
winter months when there Is great
danger Of frost damage in transit. To
stimulate interest among Colorado po-
tato growers and shippers in better
marketing conditions, an exhibit OF
full-sized freight car was produced In
the Denver Auditorium at the Western
potato show this year to show by &C
tual demonstration proper methods OF
lining and loading cars Of potatoes to
prevent loss from freezing in transit,
and Of sewing sacks to prevent loss OF
potatoes slipping through the tops OF
sacks. Some 5000 people attended the
exhibit, and 1t is confidently believed
that a greater number Of cars will be
loaded properly.
Twenty-Five short instruction courses
relative to varioun phases Of market
ing were given In six states. In one
state a course Of lectures covering II
weeks was given in q school Of com
merce. Cooperative enterprises In
three states were given assistance In
accounting problems. The collection
and dissemination Of information rela-
tive to quantity, quality and price Of
local produce offered for sale was ar
ranged for at II points in four states.
The United States bureau Of mar
kets' report Of the work Of its field
agents In marketing shows that the
accomplishments were greater In num-
Der and Of more value to producers
and consumers during the year ended
June 80, 1920, than In any previous
year. It is felt that work Of this
character should make possible the
development of consistent national

THE ANSWER

A call went out today to recruiting officers throughout the United States to enlist 6,0Ss men at once for the Second Division, now stationed at Camp Travis, Texas, which is being recruited to full strength upon tele- graphic orders from Major General P. c. Harris, the Adjutant General of the Army. There ore needed 2,623 men for infantry, 1,2sS for field artillery, 342 for engineers, and 536 for the medical regiment. These soldiers must be en- listed before December 10, and the War Department has authorized that the Second Division take priority over recruiting for any other special organ ization.
 Until full strength has been reach ed, all men available for general as- signment who are enlisted for branch es of the service represented in the Second Division will be sent to Camp Travis.
 The cap. city of the various Army schools will be doubled to accomodate the flood of recruits expected. At Camp Travis all members of trades are taught; carpentry, drawing, cabi- net making, painting, steamfitting, plumbing, electrical work, and print ing. There is first-class agricultural school on the reservation, and a 400- acre farm with herd of blooded stock. Quoting War Department bulletin:
 "The schools for general education Ire working as smoothly as any in the city of Dallas. It is amazing what rapt attention the students give to their york. Grades are established and ire auent examinations held, so that men advance as fast as their ability per mits. The teachers are expert civil ,ans, getting appropriate salaries. Many of them are women, and they are also very much enthused with their work.
 '"The choice of the Second Division as the one to be brought to maximum strength is due in greatest part to the splendid facilities offered at Camp Travis for all-year round training and ,o its permancncy and the exception ,'!, agreeable surrounding, for mili- saiy garris n. San Antonio IS now one af the premitr winter resof;s of the United ,:t1u>, where the grass is green aud ti>.wers bloom all the year around, and zero weatl,.., is never i:nown."

PERT PARAGRAPHS OF SENSE AND NONSENSE FOREIGN AND LOCAL, CAUGHT ON THE FLY BY THE HUMAN
 TOOTHPICK."

No man can ucceed without work. The man who works constantly aEi1 thinks how to improve his work al- ways is bound to reach that happiness called success. If some men would think as hard about their work as they do how to get out of working, they would soon be in a position where they didn't have to work at all. No social scheme can alter this. The man who does not fully realize his responsibil- .ly to hard work is on the desert isl- and of failure.

LIFE DULL

CONSTANTINOPLE, Nov., 23- Americans in Constantinople are find. ing life dull, uninteresting and devoid of diversion or entertainment. They have found to their disappointment that the Turkish capital has no thea tres, no amusement centers, no sea shore resorts, few moving picture houses and only one or two good res taurants. The places remotely resemb- ling theatres are few cheap cabaret halls which attract sailors, soldiers and wanderers of all nations, but nev- Constantinople.sop gl
 of the Turk. The Turk finds his diver sion in the coffee houses.
 There is little night life in Con- stantinople. After 10 o'clock the cit! is as still as d New England villag, on a Sabbath morning. Only the hab- itsue of the coffee-houses or the caba- ret and beer halls are seen. Although prohibition is unknown refreshments at these local amusement places come high. Whiskey is $1.5O a glass, and z per cent beer 90 cents.
 Americans in the city amuse them selves by occasional dances, tea part ies and weekend trips on the Bospor- us. Not many of them enjoy entre to the Turkish homes. A three months stay in the city usually is enough to make them yearn for home. There are now considerable number them here. mst of them being connected with American relief organizations or commercial nrmS.
 Although having a population of nearly 100000, Constantinople has no taxicabs, few automobiles, and only a single trolley line. Everybody walks or rides in the dilapidated horsedrawn carriages or nondescript street cars. People living in the suburbs crowd to suffocation the ferryboats plying the Bosporus and the Golden Horn. The lone trolley line runs along the main street and suspends operation as of ten as the city runs out of coal, which is frequent.
 . The Turkish metropolis has only one or two hotels. Here the merchants, political agents and commercial trav- clers of the world gather to discuss their affairs. The informers and spies of the Orient mingle among them and carry on their intrigues. Nowhere are there so many strange or suspicious looking characters. Richly dresssd wo- men from Occident and Orient, be- jeweled and painted, frequent the ca fes and lounging rooms and carry on open Irritation with the guests.
 Constantinople has been we'll de scribed as a city, not of one nation but of many. The American visitor finds here an amazing diversity of races, nationalities, languages and conflict ing faiths. There, is no cohesion of so- ciety, no civic unity. Only Saloniki or Port Said can rival the Turkish city for its cosmopolitan and it's babel of tongues.

WASHINGTON. Noy.. 23- Four teen million dollars, covering the costs of distribution of articles ranging from auto ambulances to safety pins, have been expended by the American Red Cross in its relief work in Rus sia, according to figures taken from the forthcoming annual report of the organization and made public today at headquarters here.
 Service was extended to millions of men, women and children and rang ed from hospital care for the sick to f"ou and clothing for the starving and ill clad. The work w.;, c,rrieL ta thrl commissions sent lo :i.lt. "a, Western l.l: sia, Southern Eu ,S,a anl the 6ai tic States, a total of f6' pe:SonE in ,l:.:ing 5O3 Am 2c'&,, wc,s cnp.' ye+. and 10000 different articles were dis tributed free of cost The commissions operated sanitary trains with total of 75 cars and equipped with $50 beds with capacity of 1850 patients. An ti-typhus trains operated by the con, mission travelled l1,O0O miles. furn- ishing preventative baths to 1O5 .OG0 persons, disinfection for 100000 and issuing 50O,00O clean garments. In Si- beria alone Red Cross trains distrib- .uted 5000 tons of supplies and IS hos pitals with total of 6,596 beds were operated.
 One of the most difficult tasks of the organizationd, according to the report, was in helping the people of Esthonia where there was no ambu- lance service and very little in the way of hospitals when the Americans arrived. The army was in retreat and disorganized and the combined force of soldiers and civilians to the numb CT of 10000 was described as hun gry, suffering, panic stricken mob. In December typhus broke out and for months the Red Cross workers fought the disease amid great difficulties.
 At one time the dead were piled in the corners of the rooms with the sick and no effort at decent burial was made. In a hospital at Royal, consist ing of q single barrack with 460 beds in one room, there were 600 deaths in one week. Thousands of cases were treated and with only the untrained assistance of the people the epidemic finally was conquered but not until two American Red Cross officers, Lieutenant George w. Winfield and Lieutenant Clifford Blanton, had sue cumbed to the disease.
 Much of the relief work in Vest ern Russia consisted in aid to more than 250.OO0 Allied soldiers held in prison camps, but many thousands of civilians also were supplied with food and clothing. In the Baltic states, in addition to ordinary relief efforts, the Red Cross commissions aided in the treatment of nearly 10000 typhus cas- ies and disinfecting stations and hos .pitals had to be established on large scale. The work in South Russia con- .sisted largely in caring for refugees and in fighting typhus and cholera iR tho Crinea.

The recent election which was to have decided this matter lid not do so is claimed by those op- posed to Incorporation.
