It is remarkable that in that space of time we have been successful in trans porting our troops across the seas, one of the most re markable feats in history. Now we are to begin raising our hig army. In a few days the soldiers will be drafted. Those who are called will report for physical examinations ' and :to make their claims for exemptions. The United States is now engaged in building cantonments or camp houses for one million men at a cost of $75,000,000. This will be done in twelve weeks. No small job in itself. But the houses will be ready for the boys when they report about September 1. The American soldiers will be the best equipped and the best taken care of in the world. They - will be well trained before they go in the trenches. Un cle Sam is tackling a big job and he is doing it thoroughly and well as he docs all things after he gets started.' ,. .

These articles are renrinted from Mia "RneinoQ Chronicle" of Seattle, Wash., by permission of the publisher. They ap peared in serior form in that publication, Feb. 24 to April 21, 1917. A copy may be had by addressing the Union Pacific System.) Diversified Farming Is Not Mere Rotation of Crops. Diversification is not as narrow and limited in its meaning as "rotation of crops. iRotation in farming simply means changing the character the of crops. Rotation in farming simply means changing the char acter of the crop grown on the soil each year, while diversi fication means all of this, and, in addition, opens up the great field of animal husbandry and every development and change to which the farm mav be susceptible. ' Diversification means that the average farmer should not overdo nor go too far, nor too extensively into any one crop or feature of farming.
