In compliance with a conirHCt. between the Stale Hoard of Health and the County of Alainauce, a three months' campaign of Life Extension Work wan completed August 3, 1017. During the first week of this campaign a series of pight illus trated lectures were given in the more important towns in the co'ui ty.

Among the 800 examined only 10 persons tfere found physically normal. Just as in previous work of this kind, the inoet interesting and, al the same time, the moet deplor able condition found was the .high percentngeof infected gums. With actual putt oozing from their gums, many admitted that they seldom or never used a tooth brush. Al ready symptoms or signs ot rheu matism, goiter, heart, or kidney disease had in many instances set in. The percentage of nose and throat conditions also ran high. Infected tonsils, na«al obstiuc lions, ami sinus involvement were frequently lound, while llie pa tientM complain, d of headaches, catarrh, ami disturbed respira tion. Twenty-eight per cent, were found with marked derangement of the nervous systeln, chiefly neurasthenia. Thene neurasthen ics were iuvai iably work ing eleven to Xflnrteen hours a day, eating au unbalanced diet, and disre garding all the rules of personal hygiene. Among the abdominal condi tions, visceroptosis (falling of the abdominal organs) vras frequently found. These persons complained of backache and indigestion while a little daily exercise aud nn ab dominal support or well-flttod cor set would have given great relief or a cure.

Vliile the maj6/ity of vegetables cm not N-jjafin now, the few wVch cm be make It well worth while, A note* opportunity fre>,u-nlv overlooked b.v the home gardener is to neglect to get at least one ft! crop out of hi# hot b?d or "c i d frame. By waiting unt'.l hare freezing weather before plantin ; It is to'olate to utilize a n-imb-r o things which are available if "pi ed now, so that they can b"- -wet along by the time it is n -ceßiarj to get the glass over them. Raddishes and lettuc? are o' course the two popular vegetable! which are ready for us? the soonest from seed sown in the open. Foi planting at this time only the earli est sorts should bf» u»'d, s ich at Scarlet Globe, Wtiit? Icicle etc,, in the radishes, and Grand Rapids 01 Black Seeded Simpson in lettuce The headed varieties take a littl' longer than thesv but have time to mature •in all but the more northern states if sown immediate ly. The two quickest growing tur nips, and what is usually not tru* of earliest varieties, two of the best in table quality—arc extra early White Milan and Petrowski; t'i latter especially is not so widely known as it should be; while it at tains only medium siee, it growi very quickly and is extra fin 3 nad swet in flavor. Kohl-rabi talc?* r little longer to mature than turnip' but as it should be used wh-n very small to be at its best, it may stil be planted. In beans two of the quickest ma turing varieties ar_' Stringiest pod and Longfellow. Beans ar more tender than any of the thin'ff mentioned* above, but in t ie ho m garden it is not a difficult matte to protect a row or two plan'?c late from the first light frost, nft?l which we usually get a coupli ol weeks of good weather during which they bear freely. GETTING QUICK GERMINATION With all the above of course tim is a vital element in these last plantings. In most sections of thi country we have had ampl J raint to keep the ground moist right u| until the present time. But unlesi the soil is actually damp at plant Ing time, several days or a' week can be gained with all these thing* by simply soaking the seed be fore planting.

Who doesn't like the first tendei green onions, and the first mess o spinach in the spring? The way to get them earliest is to plane thii> fall. Onion seed planted now win make strong little plants by freez ing weather that with a little pro tection will go through the win ter where the climate is too severe as in most of the northern states. Even hardi -r however are the several "perpetual" onions such as the Egyptian or Perennial Tree Onion and the Potato and White Multiplier, some of which should bs grown in every home garden. Asparagus and rhubarb roots may also be set out in the fall as well as in the Spring, this not only getting an earlier start the following Spring, but saving the time when the gar dener has more to attend to than he can usually find time for. Th advantage of both theej things is that they yield year after yeai without replanting, and they should bo given a place in every home gardem. OKT THE KItAMBS BUSY. In many gardens there are .t few "sash" for starting plants ear ly in the Spring. If the sill in theac it prepared and planted now using crops that would not have time to mature out of doore in your section, a good many dollars worth of vegetables can be got from a very smull space— and they wll! be tnuch better than stuff that has been shipped long distances to market. Such things as beans, be ts, car rots, radishes and turnips and on ion sets can be planted where they are to grow; while lettuce, endive kohl-rabi, cauliflower, etc., may b started to be transplanted later. The soil should be made very rich; •but should .be fresh and cl»an, avoiding old com|>ost from other frames and all other possible sources of plant disease. One oi the most common mistakes in frame gardening is to let the veg etables grow too thickly together Ample .thinning ts even more nec esaury here than in the garden, as there Is less circulation of air ana sunshine. Lettuce, etc.. on the o.lt er hand can be planted closer than In the garden, the plants being set aeven to nine inches apart each way. HBADKRH COtiPOX. This coupon, when proper'?

Wheat is the only one of the princip il crops not •showing a largo yield. Corn production is placed at 3,191,000,000 bushels, an increase of K7,000,000 bushels over the July forecast and 08,000,000 bush els above the record crop of 1912. The showing is due to vast im provement in the growing corn in Illinois, Indiana, lowa and Mis souri. Spring wheat production, fore-, cait iu July at 270,000,000 bush el* shows the results of ad Verne weather conditions. The pros pects are put at 230,019,000 bmh els, a drop of about 40,000,000 bushels from the July 1 report. Wilder wheal, however, is turn ing out better thin previously forecast, with a foiecast total of i 17,0u0.000, or 15,000,000 bushels' more lluui indicated from July conditions. The combined yield of winter and spring wheat, there fore, shows H reduction of 25,000,- "00 bushels from the production forecast in July. The crop fore cast from August 1 conditions, will be only 053,000,000, or 13,- 000,000 bushels more than harvest ed last year. Potatoes are expected to yield 407,000,U00 bushels, or 15,000,000 bushels more than the forecast from July conditions and 47,000,- 000 bushels more than the record -snip of 1912. Sweet potatoes also will be a record, with 86,400,000 bushels. There will be an enormous crop of tobacco, almost 120,000,000 pounds larger than the record production of last year. The buck wheat crop will be the largest in many years and oats will come close to equaling the record inade in 1915. Negro Troops Not to Come South. None of the colored troops from Northern and Western States will be sent to Southern mobilization cainps. The colored organizations, the War Department is quoted in effect as saying, although called iuto Federal service like o'her units of their State organizations, will remain at their regular home stations for the present to guard Federal and State property and other service. The policy against sending colored Guardsmen to the Southern States, where the great majority of the Federal training camps are located, was adopted, it was understood, at the request of the congressional delegations from the several States. All of which means that some body has been wise enough to see the danger of sending negro troops from the North -and West to Southern training camps, espe cially to camps along with white soldiers. • 100 Id-ward, »100 Tlio readers of this paper will bo planned to ioaru that Ihero !• at lenst one a muled «llH •*Htw* that science han been able to cute in all lt» «t«ue« aud that In catarrh.

TO BE IN CAMP SEPTEMBER 5 CROWDER IBSUEB ORDERB FOR DRAFTED MEN TO ABBEMBLE SEPTEMBER FIRST. Local Boards to Make Out Lists of Men and Ordars Will Be Mailed to Theffi.—Btart Training Hers and Finish In Frsnce. Washington. Regulations under -which men of the new national p-rmy will be called to the colors, begin ning September 1, were issued by Provost Marshal General Crowder. Two hundred thousand of thg first 687,000 men will be called September 1 and forwarded to their camps be fore September 5. The whole busi ness of asaembling the levies at en talnlng points, .providing them with shelter, food and transportation and giving them their actual induction into military life Is entrusted to the civil ian local boards which selected them for service. Until the men reach the camps, they will not be In contact with uniformed officers. The civilian control is carried forward through every stage of the draft to the very gates of the military camps wh'ere the making ot soldiers will begin, to be completed within sound of the guns in France. The actual call for men will go In each case from the provost marshal general to the state adjutant general, stating the number of men to be sup plied at a specified time by the state. local board will be promptly Informed of Its proportion in the call, ,and the adjutant general will fix the dates when men from his state shall entrain for the camps. Immediately the local board will make out the list of men to fill the call, fix the place of sntralnment and time of departure. Orders to the men will be posted and also be sent them by mall. Thoy will be directed to report to the local board at Its headquarters not less than twelve hours or mors than twen ty-four hours before the time of de parture. Prior to the arrival of the men at the board headquarters members are Instructed to make arrangements for their accommodations, to And clean and sanitary sleeping places at hotels or lodging houses, to arrnage for their meals and to provide lodging and meal tickets to be taken in payment and redeemed for cash later by a government disbursing officer. In Its discretion, the boards may grant per mission for the men to remain at their homes. For each district, five slternstes will be summoned to the board headquar ters In addition to the men actually selected to fill the board quota. Thsy will be held at the assembling point until train time to fill in vacancies should any ot the men fall to report. Except for retreat roll call, the men will be given town liberty nntll forty-five minutes before train time. The board will during this Interval select one man from the levy who It deems best qualified to command and place him In charge of the party for Its trip. He will name a second in command to aid him and the other men will be told that the orders of these two must be obeyed under pain of military discipline. { Arrived at the board headquarter! at the hour fixed, the men will bs drawn up, the roll called and agents of the board will take them personally to their quarters remaining with them until every arrangement tor their comfort has been made. Em phatic Instructions are given that tha quality of food furnished shall bs food and the board is held liable for seeing thst meals are adequate. There, final verification ot the list will be made, and If any man of tha selected number la missing, an alter nate will be sent forward In his place.

PUNS TO AVOID CONFUSION All Member* of the New Army Will Be Examined Physically After Reaching Camp.—Board* Ordered to Favor Harveitlng. Washington.—The entire 687,000 men composing the first Increment ot the army draft forces -will be tinder training early In October. Under or* ders Just issued the first thirty per cent of the quota of each district will begin entrapment for cantonments September 5, the next thirty per cent September 15, and another thirty per cent September 30. The remaining ten per cent will be mobilized a* soon after that date as possible. The plan to assemble the new forces In three Increments distributes the task of furnishing supplies and equipment through September. It will also prevent serious shortages In any camp, and will give the new officers from the training camps time to fa miliarize themselves with their duties gradually before responsibility for a great body of men falls on them. The order Issued today means that about 12,000 men will reach each of the sixteen cantonments soon ofter Sep tember 5. They will first be exam ined physically by army doctors and finally accepted or rejeccted. This will take some time and the men will have to be furnished with temporary quar ters and rationed while awaiting ex amination. If the full quota were as sembled at one time, great confusion would result. » Presumably the first Increment will have been organized into skeleton companies, battalions or regiments before the second arrives. To Favor Harvesting. In farming communities, local boards now will arrange the lists of, those to fill the first Increment with local crop conditions in mind. Men I engaged In harvesting work and who I otherwise would go with the first third of the district quota will be I passed over to Becond or third as may be necessary. Reviewing the question of dlschargo for dependent relatives, General Crowder Issued a supplemental ruling holding that persons should not be discharged because of dependents resident abroad.^ FOUR KILLED IN ' CITY BY FRENCH PLANE I 1 Amsterdam—An entente airplane on Sunday passed over Frankfortm4he iMaln and dropped several bombs In the crowded streets, according to • dispatch received here from the Ger man city.
