H. Grange, general manager of the Western territory of the Fibre Brush Company, of New York city, and Mrs. Jennie Ensminger Speck, of pennon, were married at Hotel Muehlebach, Kansas City, last Tuesday. The bride is a daughter of Mr. and Mrs.

W. A. Ensminger, of Manhelm. Mrs. Beck was on a tour with the Hood College entertainers and members of the party witnessed the ceremony.

For several years she had one of the finest apple orchards in Virginia. I have just received a letter from a man -who intends to garden this year for the first time. He asks whether it would pay a small gardener to grow potatoes when the seed potatoes cost so much. Ho has the opinion that the backyard gardener had better raise the small-space crops, instead of potatoes, which require so much space. There are few gardens so small that one long row of potatoes can't bel grown.

Even if gardener raises only enough to do' him i during the early fall he has lightened the nation's food burden just that much. Now, as to seed: The small "eye" in the potato is the embryo sprout waiting only for soil to make it grow. agree with this first-time gardener that the present high cost of potatoes makes the seed expensive. But this cost can be offset by the method of planting. Since only the "eye" and a small Iportion of the tuber's flesh with it need be planted, the body of the potato may be eaten after thq "eyes" have been cut out from it.

These cuttings should be cone-shap just received a letter from an who intends to garden his for the first time.

If you plant potatoes now and there should come a prospect of a frost some night, cover the plants 'with; straw or newspapers, boxes or C.

FECES OF GASOLINE Workers in the campaign to secure 500 members for the Y. M. C. A. met and made their first report on Monday evening, when it was shown that twenty-four applications had been secured.

The boys made the best showing. The teams had not beeu fully organized in some instances and more co-operation will no doubt' be noticed in the work to be Con ducted later on in the week. The total number of applications received on Monday compared favorably the report on the first day of last 3 ear's campaign. E. R.

Garvin, the chairman of the Membership Committee, presided. The feature of the evening was a quiz between the chairman and E. B. Searles, the general secretary. Mr.

Garvin assumed the role of the man who peppers the canvasser wiza questions as to why he should join the association or give it his finan cial support. Mr. Searles answered questions in a very appropriate manner. Later other worker; offered suggestions along this line. Samuel Klugherz, captain of team No.

5, delivered an address in which he gave a number of suggestions of value. One of the points he made in approaching business men was to tell them that the association wants them as a means of training others up to their standard of citizenship. During the evening an address was delivered by- Dr. Gardner Atlee member of the Membership Committee. He pointed out the value of co-eperation in a campaign.

The first report he thought was gratifying and predicted success for the campaign. E. a Searles, the general secretary, was called upon and rni-tde a repert of the worlz. Last year the association's membership was 1,400 and at the present time it is 1,100. Of this mumher there are between 500 and 690 boys and 600 men.

F. F. Groff thought. that It was important to tell the business man what the association was doing for the boys of the city. E.

B. Searles stated that the association was here to serve and that if even as small a number as five or six men would want a class in the gymnasium at a certain time it wonld be arranged. Reports made by the captains of the various teams were as follows: Mem- TEAMS. bers. Pts.

Lo: i4Gvet; James Conlin, supply sergeant of Company First Regiment, who is stationed at Columbia doing guard duty on the river bridge between Columbia and Wrightsville, had a remarkably close call from death while asleep in his tent along the river shore at the foot of Walnut street at a- late hour Monday night, when he was struck by a 45-calibre bullet, ac identally discharged from a revolver in the hands of Musician Sergeant Conlin was asleep on his cot. He was lying on his stomach and closeby Musician Heaney was examining his revolver. He was removing the magazine when the weapon was accidentally discharged. The ball struck Sergeant Conlin ii the right shoulder and passed entirely through the body.

Fortunately the ball did not strike a vital spot and made only a flesh wound. He was given first aid by Lt. Martin, the camp physician, after which he was sent to the hospital for treat- meat Reports from that institution at noon today were that Sergeant Con-1 lin is resting comfortably and that his wound is not a serious one.

She a member of the Mennonite The season of the year has arrived when it becomes the patriotic duty of every American to swat the fly and keep on swatting him from cellar to "from early morning 'till dewy eve," in any and every possible manner, whether by main strength' or scientific method. We are going to hear a good deal about flies this coming summer. In previous seasons crusades against these pernicious little disease carriers have been prosecuted with more or less vigor, but this year the war is to be waged in a systematic, scientific manner.

Down South they. have ali ready started swatting the fly. The health authorities of Georgia, Florida and Loutsiana are putting up posters depicting the habits of the house fly and I its proclivity for gathering and dis' seminating disease germs. The principle of "the fewer flies," the less sickness, is being impressed upon school as well as housewives. The State food and drug of 1 Tennessee has offered two gold medals to school pupils for the best4 essays on the house fly as a menace to health.

Out in California the women have organized for the good The Texas health officialg are issuing bulletins warning the public against their subtle foe. The Merchants' Association. of New York, has issued "rules" for dealing with the fly, nuisance. A little pamphlet written by the Anti-Fly Crusade, of Detroit, while it contains many statements, scarcely suitable for breakfast table perusal, deserves a wide circulation for itg portrayal of the evils that follow in the train of the fly. The indictment is a lenghty one, but it is a true bill.

The fly is put in the same class with the mad dog, the snake In the grass and the wild animal roaming at will, for the fly is insidious. Ile lurks in every corner. He plants his disease germs on your bread. He buries them In your butter. He drowns them in Your baby' milk bottle.

There is no escape if he once enters your home. The lesson is obvious; put your screens in early. Don't wait until the enemy is legion, but start the battle while there is some chance of winning. The fly must go. Screen all windows and doors, especially the kitchen and dining room.

Keel) the flies away from the sick, especially those ill with contagious Kill every fly that strays I into the sick room. Ills body is covI ered with disease germs. Do not allow decaying material of any sort to accumulate on or near your premises. All refuse which tends In any way to fermentation, such as bedding, straw, waste paper and vegetable matter, should be disposed of or covered with limo or kerosene oil. Screen all food.

Keep all receptacles for garbage carefully covered and the cans cleaned or sprinkled with oil or lime. Keep all stable manure in vault or pit, screened or sprinkled with lime, oil or other cheap preparation. Cover food after a meal; burn or bury all table refuse. Screen all 'food exposed for sale. Don't forget, if you see flies, their breeding place is in nearby filth.

It may be behind the door, under the table, or in the cuspidor. lr there is no dirt or filth there will be no flies. 1r there is a nuisance in the, neigh. borhood write at once to the health department. I was the arrival of wireless news summaries.

Books on America came out in surprising numbers and many of the mission could probably pass nn examination in American history and geography. When M. Pain leve, the minister of war, first proposed to his fellow members of the cabinet that an extraordinary mission should be sent to America his idea received almost Instant acceptance. The feeling in the government was that the appreciation of the French people for American co-operation ought to be made evident by sending some great Frenchmen to Washington to say so personally to the President. The French ministry also thought that definite results might emerge from a joint examination of the larger aspects of the world situation.

If such an examination brought mutual clearness of view and understanding the advantages to both governments might be immediate. The mission was not to be instructed to urge anything upon the American Government, but rather to place its experi- cube and information at the disposal of the President and to arrive at results in consultation. The mission is an extension to the United States of the practice among the allied governments of conferences first in one country, then in another of 'statesmen and generals. The result has been unity and coordinated action among the members of the coalition. "I would like to go myself," said M.

Ribot, to his colleagues, "Only it would be imprudent for me to leave the government for a month. If it were for a week or ten days I might do it." The choice fell upon M. Vivian', the member ranking next to M. Ribot In the cabinet and its vice president. M.

Ribot, acting with the authority of the cabinet, then called upon Marshal Joffre, who reflected for some time. As president of the superior council of war he is the highest military adviser of the government. He hesttated about leaving France at this time, but agreed to do so, and within a week had made his arrangements. Such is the confidence of the French cabinet in M. Vivian' that they gave him no written instructions.

Joffre's fellow members in the mission had an opportunity during the voyage to come into intimate contact with him. Although social in his attitude Joffre is a silent man by habit. Ile joined in the conversation at table by occasionally telling arm-(totem of the front. At times he Ivould unexpectedly utter a judgment upon an important phase of the military situation in Europe. Ills habit was to listen to the talk about hint, smile appreciatively and sometimes add a remark'.

The marshal has been known to lirten in silence for fivo hours to a general's expoaltion of a situation. Joffre has been in America before. It was twenty-nine years ago, while On his way home on leave from service in the colonies. Ile arrived in San. Francisco on a ship which.
