WARS LARGEST DUMP
GOES BACK TO DESERT
Ell Kantara, on the Suez, Now Is
Dismantled Completely

What once was deemed the great
est military dump in the world, Ell
Kantara, the British army base on
the east side of the Suez canal, now
has reverted almost entirely to the
wilderness of sand and silence whence
it rose. It's passing marks the demise
of one of the most important "war
baby" soldier cities.
In 1914, Ell Kantara was merely the
name of "place" on the Suez canal,
forty-five minutes by train from Port
Said. With the beginning of the Pal
estine campaign, the transformation
began. Pioneers, engineers and army
service corps detachments mapped out
town.
There were erected Enclosures for
cattle, horses, mules, donkeys and fod-
der, for great guns and small linn
Der carts. Later there appeared in
closures for prisoners, and the mis-
cellany of canteens, contractors huts,
officers quarters and barracks that
made up a great war center.
When the armistice was signed, Ell
Kantara's stores included quantities
of every appurtenance of war. It's
dismantling began in 1920. Contrac-
tors rushed in and got great bar
gains. Gradually the vast accumula-
ton dwindled until, few days ago,
the dsposals board finished it's work
and the site was handed over to the
Egyptian labor corps-a dilapidated,
empty hulk.

dumped, in designs, whole beds or
as borders these low growing daintily
fiowered plants well repay what little
care and attention they need.
Among the many sorts, sizes and
colors, we have the giant Trimardieu,
ruffied, notified, butterfly and others
of equal merit, all pretty and all sus-
ceptible to the same treatment.
If you wish them from seed grow in
early spring for summer bloom or in
the autumn for spring bloom.
Be sure to select beds more or less
protected from cutting winds, where
the soil is rich, cool and moist, if pos
sible and with free drainage, always
well titled. Plant the seed about one
sixteenth inch deep, in drills when the
seedlings are grown enough to handle
thin or transplant to stand eight in
ches apart. Well-cultivated pansies,
free from weeds, well watered, repay
many times the attention given them.
Some temporary shade will help
them on very hot days-in the Win
ter, when seed are planted in the
autumn for spring bloom, straw or
suitable litter will aid them. They
can be carried over nicely in cold
frames.

Delaware Bay Fish
Yield Is Abnormal
Shad, Herring, and Other Va.
rieties Return There to
Enrich Fisherfolk

Food fish are so abundant in the
tributaries of Delaware Bay and in
the lower waters they are being
caught and fed to the hogs.
For almost twenty years there has
been an increasing scarcity of shad
and herring, weakfsh and rock and
similar food fish, and fishermen were
abandoning their vocation and turn
ing to other means of making a live
lihood.
The first surprise came last summer
when the schools of sturgeon reap
peared after reaching almost the
vanishing point, and some fishermen,
those best equipped for the work,
made as high as $500 day, at peri
ods through the brief season.
There was great demand for the
roe Of the sturgeon to be made into
caviar, and many of the female fish
netted their captors more than 5000.
In several instances couple of net
experts landed two or even four a
day.
1t was not, however, until last week
the temperance of food fish in old
time abundance was noted by Della
ware fishermen. On one day it is re-
ported, two Seaford fishermen with
a seine swept in more than two large
boatloads of shad and herring, rock
and perch, more indeed than they
would have netted in two weeks last
season or during any similar period
in the last ten or fifteen years.
All along the Delaware coast from
Delaware City to Lewes and in every
river and tidewater stream in the
State the fish abound and are being
caught by the thousands.
At Seaford the first big catch sent
the price of prime roe shad down to
that of thirty years ago. Herring,
that have not sold for less than SIS
a hundred in the last quarter of a
century, were marked down to 25
cents a hundred, and after thousands
had been eaten and salted away for
winter, the hogs were supplied with
wagonloads.
At Delaware City, the terminus of
the Delaware and Chesapeake Canal,
where herring used to be dipped from
the canal by the bushel by simply
lowering baskets in the water, the fish
are returning in great numbers, with
the likelihood of being as plentiful
as they were years ago.
There is delight not only among
the net fishermen, but among the ang
lers as well.
Reappearance of the fish in Della
ware streams will mean an increase
of perhaps million dollars in the
revenue Of the State, as the "come-
back" is said to extend to crabs and
other shellfsh.

''TH' OLE BUS"

The present boom in the auto industry means
employment for 2,250O00 people, says Alfred
Reeves, general manager OF National Auto
mobile Chamber of Commerce.
His estimate includes = in addition to the
100000 men working in auto factories = hun
dreds Of thousands Of professional chauffeurs
and drivers and garage employees, 100000 &C
cessory factory workers, 10000 tire dealers
and statesmen and thousands more in allied
eretail trades
Workers in many other industries also get
Jobs by the auto boom. For instance the max
ing of passenger autos and motor trucks uses
up % per cent of the countrys production OF
aluminium, about the same Of tin, 80 per cent
Of plate glass, Is per cent of copper, much coal,
iron, steel, varnish, oil and other products.
Then railroad men get work, hauling the cars
to buyers.
This chain SYSTEM by which the auto indus
try is keeping 225O,000 people busy, is rather
amazing when you consider that the total num-
Der painfully employed" in the United States
is less than 100000.
1t means that one person in each 10 is depend
ent for work on the sale and use of autos.
How much is luxury, how much necessity,
how much saver of labor and time and money ?
Reeves figures that 100000 passenger au-
tos and trucks will be manufactured this year,
and that 70 per cent Of them will sell for $1,000
or less.
In the whole country there are about 10,500,-
600 autos and trucks. Including accessories
and spare tires and garages and 50 on, at least
$4,000, 100000 is tied up in autos.
You go to the neighborhood movie at night
and, parked nearby, see cars representing an
investment almost staggering in its size.
Americans investment in autos is easily half
as big as the entire national debt. That is ma
terial for very hot half-hour's discussion. Do
you think it is too much, just right or not
enough?
For each $40 invested in autos, SIT is in saw
ings banks.

MORE EGGS BY RADIO.


Worcester, Mass. = Give your hens
free radio concerts and increase their
egg production.
John G. Gaskill, junior champion
poultry raiser of this county, offers
this advice.
Music has solved young Gaskill's
problems and he says it will do like
wise for other poultrymen. Charmed
by the music of his piccolo, 80 hens
laid 504O eggs in seven months, he de-
clares. One of the eggs had three
yolks!
The record gave this 16-year-old
champion a victory over SO competi-
tors and made his total poultry prizes
80 in three years.
Music Does 1t.
"'Say it with music is my motto"
says Gaskill, explaining his success.
eff you can't play, install radio re-
ceiving set and get the broadcast con-
cert music.
Almost every day played the pic
colo, flute or trumpet to my hens.
They enjoyed it and laid more eggs
as result. At first l Started to play
them a cornet solo, but they seemed
to have an aversion for that instru-
ment. 1 really believe this daily mu-
steal program was an important fac
tor in my success.
81 believe the time will come when
radio amplifiers will be attached to
hen houses SO the egg production may
be increased by wireless telephone
concerts from near and far"
Lectures Taboo.
Beware of broadcast lectures or
singing! This, says this poultry
raiser, will decrease egg production.
The hens like instrumental music
only. So, if the program calls for a
song, tune out the station and search
for a violin or orchestral selection
from another broadcasting station.
"Any particular selection will do"
says Gaskill. "In fact, am not much
of an artist on any Of the instruments
I play to my hens. Almost any old
tune will put the flock in good hu-
NOR"
For success in the poultry business
Gaskill gives FIVE principles:
Install electric lights in hen-coops.
Furnish instrumental music to the
hens.
Give them clear water often.
Guard against poultry disease.
Keep the coops immaculate.

cans in every part of the country that the fight

The new rules for the Suez Canal that sought
to exclude American tankers from the use of

Americans have never yet shrunk from keen
commercial rivalry and when-the competition
is to be carried on with foreign interests the
zest for the struggle is the stronger. In the
Middle West there has never been great de-
mand for an American merchant marine until
now, but the knowledge that the government
is preparing to keep our ships on the ocean in
the face of whatever opposition may be en-
countered from abroad is awaking an interest
in the matter. The farmers are beginning to
see that their welfare, like that of the manu-
facturers of the East, is bound up in the mer-

CARE OF THE TEETH.
By DR.. R. H. BISHOP.

People always admire a beautiful
set of teeth Why is it, then, that
more people don't take good care of
their teeth and have beautiful sets of
their own? 20
The nose and the mouth are the
busiest parts of entry for disease in
the human body, the mouth particu-
larly, if the teeth are defective.
The mucous membrane of the
mouth is, in itself, quite resistful to
disease germs, yet at times it be-
comes infected and pus-forming germs
bore their way to the roots of the
teeth and the bones of the face, pro-
ducing suffering, Disagreement and
sometimes even loss of life. 1t is a
fact that too many people dig their
graves with their, teeth.
The best way to clean the. teeth is
to place the bristles of the brush firm
ly against them, then, applying pres
sure, as if trying to force the bristies
between them, to proceed with slight
rotary scrubbing motion. The brush
ing finished, take mouthful of luke
warm water, and with lips, cheeks and
tongue, using all the force you can,
forae the water between and around
the teeth, repeating Tits cleansing
process several times.
The teeth should be cleaned in the
morning, before retiring at night and
after each meal, if possible.
Long life, happiness and prosperity
depend much upon clean mouth full
of healthy teeth.
