Louis F. G sorn. and Battery B, un-
der Capt. James D. EgKleston. will
drill Wednesday night of each week.
Even though the Naval Militia have
vacated the armory at the foot of
Seventh street. there Is not yet
enough room. and 1t was necessary
to have two drill nights each week,
instead of one. as formerly.
Instruction for new recruits has
been made more interesting and di-
versified by the use of moving pic
lures showing the details of the
drills and other work to be taken
up by the companies. The moving
pictures are being run by Sergt.
Charles F. Coanshawk.
Interest is being manifested among
the younger enlisted men of the
Coast Artillery concerning the recent
announcement that there will be one
candidate designated to take the en-
trance examination for the United
States Military Academy at West
Point. Some enlisted men from
the National Guard will take this
entrance examination and there will
probably be several applicants from
the Coast Artillery in the compe-
tition.
A preliminary examination will be
held between November / and IS.
Prerequisites are that the applicant
must be a member of a unit recog-
nfzed by the Federal Government and
| must have served a year in the Ma
tional Guard prior to July 1. 1925.
The service need not necessarily be
continuous. Former enlistments will
be recognized. Age-limits are 19 and
%. The applicant must be between
these ages, and this requirement can
in no case be waived. The prelimi-
nary examinations will be somewhat
on the order of the Regular Army ex-
aminations. The applicant obtaining
the highest rating will then stand
the examination for entrance to the
United States Military Academy at
West Point.

Practical Suggestions
for Delectable Berries

The luscious Strawberries and rasp
berries are crops that please most OF

tions about these two plants that Will

season.
Fertillze and cultivate your straw.
berry bed and then mulch with heavy
litter Of some kind. The litter will
conserve the moisture and prevent the
berries from becoming soiled By con.
serving the moisture 1t will prolons
the bearing period from week to ten
days.
Set out new strawberry bed this
spring. Set the plants in rows three
feet wide and two feet apart in the
row, and keep them to single crowns
This Is decidedly the best method OF
growing Strawberries for home use.
Set out blackcap raspberries and red
raspberries on the north side Of a
fence or building, where the ground is
rich. Raspberries do very well on q

partly protected from the sun, while
they frequently fail on southern ex.

by constantly emphasizing the value of
pure bred poultry and of the need of

Onstration agent rendered all possible
assistance in the marketing of these

tributed largely to the fact that at
every meeting held, no matter what
subject was discussed, poultry was ad-
vised rs n means of increasing the
home income. Out of 13S women en-
rolled in home demonstration work, 70
improved their fiocks by the purchase
of standardized cockerels or baby
chicks.
In addition to selling poultry, 1887
pounds Of butter and fresh vegetables,
amounting to S2,36S.5O, were sold In
the county. The money earned by the
women in these ways was divided into
three portions. One part was laid
away for rainy day, one part was
spent in supplying special needs of the

the third part was spent for home i'm

ments, % houses were remodeled by
having additions. new floors, or new

USE DISCRETION IN
CULTURE OF GRAPES

The method of training grapes has
marked effect on the bearing habits
of the vines. The newly recruited
army OF amateur grape growers will
need to use special discretion in their
pruning practices IL their efforts are
to be rewarded with beautiful crops.
For the average commercial vine

varieties like the Concord and NJ
agara, the four-arm system of prun-
Ing has proved best. Under this sys-
TEN two-wire trellis, with the top
wire 5k to 6ls feet high and the bot.
tom wire to 3 feet below, is erected.
A single trunk is run up to the top
wire. and single new cane run along
each wire in each direction from the
trunk, making four new canes In all.
The canes on the top wire are cut
back TO 10 to 10 buds each, while those
on the bottom wire each carry two or
three fewer buds. or nodes, than the
top canes. vigorous, mature vine
on good soil may carry total of 3G
to 80 buds, while less vigorous vines

The selection of the canes Is impor.

twenty or more buds are preferred. II
has been determined by experiment in
Maryland that only the first so or &C
per cent of the buds on each cane is
fruitful, regardless of the length OF
the cane, or. in other words, the buds
nearer the tip Of the cane are not
fruitful. Therefore. the canes chosen
should be of sufficient length so that
~ to 90 per cent of the buds can be
removed, still leaving the number OF
buds desired for the vine. Bull canes
