"I was one of the first carload 01. forty girls that was shipped up from Chicago. The factory wns swarming with workmen putting In the machin ery, and we girls couldn't begin work foe a day or so, so we began hunting plsce* to eat and *leep. That was a trifle that the employment folk* hadn't thought of. The workmen were sleep ing nnd eating In the cars that had brought them there, backed on tho siding. Our only chance for beds anil food was with those seven farmhouses, *o wo marched straight to the farmer*' wive* and asked for board nnd room. Fsrfflar** Wive* Hospitable. "I will any that thoaewomen were kind and hoapltatile. They fixed It up be tween them to feed ti* forty girl*, and they gBTe us good food too. But for room*, that wa* the question. They could -each apare one room. That meant aleep five or all In a room. But right then along came the bona of the factory and told ua the machinery wa* ready and he'd expect us girl* to work double ahlfta. night and day. "Ha wanted to make use of every minute, you see. But that gave us our chance as to sleeping. We filed It up with the farm folks that we'd work double shifts nnd sleep double shift* too. , "So we planned It. Three icTrla would UM> n room from eight nt liliiht itlll nix the next morning. Then they'd hustle over to the factory, nr.d the three girl* who'd been working nil night would take the room and sleep till afternoon. It wasn't any luxuri ous (lumber, believe me. The fnrm women had so few sheet* and pillow case* that', most of us went without And towela were scarce as diamonds on blackberry hushes. Aa to soap— well, the general atore kept yellow bar soap, that kind that la so full of ronln yon could use It to calk a ship. But we made out till the next three car loads of girls came rolling In. Then we went 'most distracted. Those poor girls had to sleep In tenta and In the oars that the workmen had abandoned by this time, and they were lucky If they got a straw tick and a blanket. By this time It had turned raw cold, and maybe yon know what late au tumn nights In Michigan feel like. To cap the climax the farm folks cut down on food, and for a week it was potatoes and beans and mighty few beans at that. Along Cam* • MlfietsT "But, right when we were about Ckdy to qnlt oar Jobs and beat It for me, along came a miracle. Two quiet, businesslike women' climbed down from the eastbeund train one morning. With them came eight work men, a carload of scantling and tar paper, another carload of cots and blankets and pillows and sheets and towels —brand new blankets and beds —think *of the glory of thatl—and bushels of dishes and rolls qf oilcloth and enough burlap to carpet the coun try. You won't believe rno when I tell you that In ten days their workmen had a scantllng-and-tar-'paper shack put up and burlap tacked over the walls, and the Y. W. C. A. secretary .and her helper had set up board tables and coffee kettles and were serving us the grandest hot lunches every day. And back behind the burlap screens were set those rows of clean cots, with enough cover to keep you warm the coldest night that ever blew, nud a towA apiece for every single girl. Ik> you * onder that we all felt, as one girl put It, 'l'll wager the Krltß-Carie ton has nothing on tills I' "Who were those women? Why, Y. W. C. A. secretaries, of course. I'd think you'd know that without being told. All over the country wherever we girls have pitched In to make nero plane cloth or overalls or munitions or canned goods you'll find a Y. W. 0. A. secretary working harder than any body else to make the girls comfort able and to keep them happy and well. Sometimes they haven't money enough to get all that we really need. But al ways they stretch every cent to make It do Its level best for us. Do yon won der ttifct we girl workers have learned to call the Y. W. C. A. our Big Sister —the very best Big Sister of all?

But when It was learned that workers could be secured In Prance—men well fitted for the work because of their familiarity with conditions—the services of many men In Ihe United States were not needed.

In exact figures the value of the supplies shipped to France was $3,- 195,908 and each month's qiuota will ap proximate this total until the forces overseas have been materially reduced by demobilisation. The demand for tobacco, clears and cigarettes has not diminished since the armistice was signed, as witness the fact that $1,351,000 of the total amount went for the purchase of the weed In some form.

Furthermore, the amount of cultiva tion customarily given crops Is suffi cient to control all the weeds the land will grow, and this number Is generally present despite tits raxing of road side growths. On the other hand, the lack of verdure and shade and, the general dreariness of roadsides make It very desirable that a different treat ment of these most extensive public parkings be adopted.

No Other Tree or Vina May Be Handled 80 Systematically—Es- I aential Points Given, (By It'll BENNINGTON.) 80 much has oeen written on thla subject and so many complicated methods aet forth, that the essential points 'have been lost sight of, and those who cannot follow these methods to the letter Just let the vineyard go without care. Proper pruning la the most Impor tant Item In grape culture, and there la no tree or vine which may be handled ao systematically aa the grape. With fruit trees a great deal has to be left to the Judgment of the operator and. the condition of the treea; not ao 'With the grape, for there are certain rules which must be. adhered to, leav ing nothing to guesa. It la not enough to cut away half or two-thirds of the growth, for unless you have a proper knowledge of tha frult-bearlng canes you may cut away the very ones you ought to let alone. In the first place let us understand that some of the canes will produce fruit buds next year, while others will - only make more wood. It Is not at all difficult to determine between the two. The fruit canes have the buds close together and these buds are short and (lump. Such canes usually come from wood of the previ ous season's growth, while the long jointed and unfruitful canes come from the older wood. Let us remember, however, that these long-jointed canes In their turn produce frult-bearlng canes next year, and one or two bud spurs should be left on them, for the vineyardlst must look a year ahead. The time for prun ing grapevines is any time from the falling of the leaves In the fall till the sap rises In the spring, and no matter what kind of trellis you use, Canopy, wire or even a single post for each vine, the essentials are the same; and these are, that two fruitful be left on each vine, three or four feet long, or containing ten or fifteen buds each. These buds will produce fruitful vines for next year's pruning, as It is a well-established fact that caneß growing out of these spurs are more apt to be vigorous and fruitful than those from canes that bore fruit thla year. | If this has been looked after this year, all you will have to do next year la to pick out the canes from these two spurs, cut them to the desired length, removing all other wood ex cept two spurs of the loilg-Jolnted wood for the forthcoming year.
