Ten CHECKS ARE
SIGNED At ONCE
instrument Speeds Up Work Of
the Pension Office.
DELIVERY IS WElA-TMED

The pension office Of the Department
of the Interior last month filled out
and signed $4,000 checks representing
the payment of $20,660,018 to old SOL
diers and their widows, as well as
retired employees of the federal gov
ernment, according to an announce
ment by Secretary Work. Doctor
Work said this number Of checks ex-
ceeds that Of any other government
bureau.
A remarkable feature is that they
are mailed and dispatched so that
every one of them reaches the pension
ers by the fourth of the following
month. Here is how it is done by
Doctor Work:
1.-THE checks are printed in sheets
of five with attached stubs, the latter
being kept in books of 1000 for con
v%enience. After the checks are care
fully reviewed to ascertain the cor
rectness Of names, certificate numbers,
dates and amounts, they are sent to
clerks designated to sign them and
whose signatures are already on file
with the treasurer of the United
States, upon whom all checks are
drawn.
Signs Ten Checks.
"These check slgners, In order to
sign promptly such a volume of them
within the brief time allotted for that
work, use the ten-pen s~ignagraph,
which enables each to affix a signature
to ten checks at a single operation.
checks are cut by an electric cutting
machine and are then inclosed for
mailing.

In the envelopes and sealed they
are placed In boxes holding about 42O
each, labeled by states, it requiring L.
200 boxes for the purpose. These
boxes are then placed in mail sacks.
When filled it requires twelve heavy
office trucks to convey them to the city
post Office.
"All pension checks are sent to the
Washington post office about one week
prior to the 4th of the month, when
he pension is due. The city post Of

lpon proper schedules those checks
destined for points comparatively near
o the city of Washington and re
eases them so that they will reach the
'ost office of delivery on the 4th of the

'"Those checks for points farther dis
ant are resacked and forwarded at
nee to the superintendent Of the rail-
yay mail service In their respective
~istricts throughout the country, and
18th them are special instructions that
hey be held and released for dispatch

However, it does not hurt if the
sprouts are burned a little. The only
harm is slightly retarded starting.
The seed should be thoroughly dried
and put back in clean sacks or bas-
kets or those that have been treated
after soaking.
Scarcity Of Poultry Litter
Laying hens nowadays have rather
expensive carpet to walk on and
scratch to pieces. 1t costs over $4,000
per ton. Furthermore, every pen of
birds that amount to anything demand
this high priced material and go on
a laying strike if they do not have it
or some pretty high priced substitute.
Knowing this, several alert Cape May
County poultrymen have decided to
counter by raising their own straw
and sell it to the poultry business for
market price. Who wouldn't sell straw
at $40 to $25 per ton? Alfalfa sells at
$26 and wen black grass and salt hay
sell for $40 to SIS per ton. Besides
the straw, if barley or oats are sown
there is the grain that the leghorns,
plymouth, wyandotte, giants or Rhode
Islands reds can thresh out and
change into high priced August and
September eggs. Another reason why
farmers can raise poultry litter to adj
vantage is that barley or oats will act
as a nurse crop to bring along safely
either sweet clover or alfalfa. These
=
ing the land and furnishing forage.
The conclusion is: Buy barley and
oats and sweet clover and SOW.

Wildwood Beats BridgetOn in South
Jersey Championship Game

1t seemed as if bedlam had broken
loose in the game with Bridgeton
played here last Tuesday evening on
the Casino floor. The sports were
there in all their glory, shouting for
the home team to strain every muscle
and win this game. They responded
by winning by the close score of
1881. 1t was a finely played game
and the honors go to Referee Kelly,
who called fouls without a kick from
players or spectators. He was here,
there and everywhere. The first half
of play found the Wacs leading by the
small score of 14-13. The Wacs had
a new man in their lineup, Calhoun,
from Philadelphia, and the snappy
playing of the Wacs was apparent.

Treating Seed Potatoes
Between now and the end of March
this office will be besieged with prob
ably $50 calls about treating seed po-
%tatoes, if they hold to last years ex-
ample. Information is given below so
don't fail to keep this paper ready at
hand.
First, there are two materials that
may be used for treating seed po-
tatoes: Formaldehyde and corrosive
sublimate (bichloride of mercury.
Formaldehyde is less poisonous,
easier and safer to handle but kills
only the scab. 1t will not affect rhi-
z~octonia. The usual question then is,
well, why not use it if you have no
rhizoctonia?" In a majority of cases
seed potatoes may have a little rhi-
zoctonia and will not be noticed in
casually looking over the seed. 1t is
therefore best to use corrosive sub
Innate and kill both the scab infection
and the rhizoctonia infection. In
making up the solution use 4 ounces
of corrosive sublimate to 80 gallons
of water. 1t is best to dissolve this
in hot water first to hasten the disso-
luton. In cold water it may take
sometime. After soaking one-half
hour remove the potatoes and put in
another batch. A so gallon barrel will
hold 80 gallons of water and about
80 bushels of potatoes.
When two patches have been soaked
add to each barrel Il ounce of cor
rosive sublimate and fill up with water
to the 80 gallon mark. Repeat after
each two patches. In making this up
it is best to use a stock solution SO
that l quart will contain Il ounce OF
corrosive sublimate. Care should be
taken to use no metal containers in
handling this solution as it will eat
holes through metal very rapidly.
Thirdly, it is important to treat early
if you can get them thoroughly dried
out, for when treated just before
planting the seed may be sprouted and
the soaking will retard termination
