The United State Aad 374 ressels on duty In European w aters and a personnel of 10.711 afloat, ti bases or headquarters when the armistlc was signed, according to a summary of United States naral activi ties prepared at headquarters here.

Of the la classes of ships enumerated In the report the work of the destroy' -a stands first In dramatic interest. The that were here on July 1. 1917 Immediately became active in the war turn and that activity constantly In creased as the cumber of boats gradu ally swelled until it reached the maxi mum number on November 11, 1911. Tieop Un Prevented. With IS converted yachts and a few other vessels they escorted 900.000 troops of the United States expedition ary force to Europe without the loss of a man from enemy action, and they escorted 27 per cent of all United Stales, allied and neutral shipping- to France and England from April (. 1917, to No vember 9, 1919. In this and other work they sreamed approximately 275,000 miles every 30 days. The convoy system was not adopted antll shortly after the United States entered the mar. but in the year and seven months from then until the end. 1.S3 ships were brought over in 1474 convoys tha numbered from one ship to as many as 40. United States destroy ers based at Queenstown and Brest es corted , more than it single ships through the danger lone, and in this work encountered some of their great est hazards. Only the largest, fastest ships were sent across alone, and In rough weather the destroyers were con siderably battered when forced to main tain high speed against heavy seas. Reports of contact with the enemy 1y American ressels total 258, and most of them came from destroyer comman ders. A submarine was actually in the vicinity in 1J of these rases, but the others have been listed as false alarms. I Jfethods of determining the presence of a submarine are varied, but usually are based upon charts which show with surprising accuracy the day to day movements or the under-water craft. 23 Eaeonntera Reported. The report gives a list of !! encoun ters, the majority of which resulted li the submarine being "probably slight ly damaged" or "possibly slightly dam- area, one is given as "possibly sunk three as sunk, and one captured. The accuracy of information of the move ments of submarines Is evidenced in the case of the yacht Lydonia. In command of Commander R P. McCullough. who was credited with sinking a subma rine, although he never saw It The I.ydonia dropped depth charges after a torpedo had been fired at a convoyed hip. The submarine had been reoort- d in that vicinity and as it did not return to Its base it was considered sunk In tha engagement. It is known three American flo-hf- Ing ships were lost through enemy ac tion the destroyer Jacob Jones and the armed yacht Alcedo and the vacht Owasco. which was used on patrol work. Three were sunk as the result of collisions and the revenue cutter Tampa was sunk by an explosion the cause of which baa never been ascep- laicea. the ashes until signs of growth appear, after which spread the ashes out over the ground. It makes a good growth the first year and some heads may be obtained in I all plants will flower and continue to do so for many years. JUpsratBs. This Is something that nearly every one likes and it should have a place in every permanent garden. It, with rhu barb, furnish the first fruits of our gar dens In the spring and both are es pecially valuable for this reason, besides others. Permanent asparagus beds should be prepared by deep plowing or spading and thoroughly enriching the ground with stable manure or other fertiliser. A moist sandy soil is best for It. If the subsoil Is not naturally loose It must be deeply epaded to loosen for drainage. Seed may be sown and take a year or more to make good plants, or one or two-year-old plants may be purchased. Set the plants about four inches deep and one to two feet apart In rows four to six feet apart. After the plants are well started give frequent and thorough cultivation. Early the next spring spade In a heavy dressing of manure and about one quart of salt and double the quan tity of fresh wood ashes to each square rod and cultivate well until the plants begin to die down. A year after plant ing the bed may be cut over two or three times and all the shoots, no mat ter how small, must be cut. After the final cutting give a good dressing of manure, ashes and salt. Cultivate until the plants meet In the rows. Cut and burn foliage in the fall. It is esti mated that a bed 15x50 feet In sise. re quiring about 100 plants to set. if well cultivated and manured should give the second season an abundant supply for an ordinary family and continue productive for from 10 to 20 years. Rkabarb. Rhubarb succeeds best In deep, some what retentive soil and the richer this Is and the deeper It is stirred the bet tor. Seed may be sown for next year's plants or plants bought now and set four to six feet apart each way. The stalks should not be plucked until the second year and they should be heavily manured each spring. The plant must never be allowed to exhaust itself by running to seed. Every garden should have at least a half dozen hills of rhubarb. It would be well to set it with your winter vege tables so It will not be in the way of the fall plowing, which Is also true of artichokes and asparagus. Horseradish. A root or two of horseradish Is de sirable, but be careful to put It off in comer by Itself, as it spreads badly. Sets planted in May, with the top one inch below the surface, in good soil. ill form large roots in one season's growth and are most appetising to add to pickles and chow-chow in the fall and to grate for table use in spring. Herbs. Besides the herbs mentioned In the Sunday list, some medicinal herbs can well be raised in a little permanent bed h as horehound. pennyroyal, pep permint, catnip, etc One or two plants of any kind desired will remain for years with very little care.

JUAREZ, Mexico. Mexican military bands are superior to American army bands both In ability to keep marching time and to play military and classi cal music with expression, said Colonel Seloh R. H. Hompklns at a dinner given by General Jesus Augustln Castro In honor of General James J. Hombrook and Colonel Tompkins of the United States army, on board his private tral here. A military band of 70 pieces sa in the sun beside the general's private car and played selections from gran operas, military marches and America airs. The board was augmented by drum and trumpet band of 20 members, who played the bugle and drum -eall of the Mexican army, while the ban played the airs. Colonel Tompkins was especially enthusiastic over the way the trumpeters sounded their flourishes to the colors, the perfect tempo of th drum section and the swing of th music which made it perfect for march ing, he said. "If your men can fight like your band can play, they are good soldiers," Colo nel Tompkins said. EAR Friends: There are certain de- vsually. by planting the roots in the early spring In beds especially pre pared for them. The seeds of these I may be sown one vear and the little seedlings transplanted the next year. out in a small nome garden it Is usual ly better to buy the plants ready to set out at the seed store. These vegeta bles, once planted, form beds that live many years, some a Ufa time nearly. Artichokes. The Globe artichoke la the one used for human food and it is the green flower head that Is eaten. Seeds may be sown in the hotbed or Indoors In shallow boxes, early, and the little plants set out In May. or can bo sown outside and thinned out to one plant In the hliL ' The plants thrive best in deep, rich soil, where the water will not lodge about them in winter. Plants are set In rows three feet apart and two or three feet apart in the row. The crowns should be covered with coal ashes in w inter to shed tha water and over these a good covering of leaves, held in place by a little earth. When spring arrives remove the leaves, but do not disturb I REAL REPORTING TAUGHT Newspaper Offers Training to Young Journalists. SALT LAKE CITT, March 27.
