must always consider that internal sani

ond within five years growing out of the

SOLD IN EUGENE MARKET GARDEEWER IS
PRACTICAL IN TALK
F. B. Chase Answers Many
Questions Put by Gardeners
at Junior High School.
F. B. Chase, the well known market
gardener, gave one of the most practioal
talks upon gardening which - has been
heard in Eugene in a long time.
Mr. Chase began by advising people to
plant the varieties of vegetables they
wanted for their own use: not to plant
what some one advised. Also to plant no
more of any variety than would be used.
If the family was to be awny from home
during the vacation season the planting
should be confined to vegetables which
would be ready for use before leaving or
not until after they came back.
He strongly urged against trying to
handle tho ground while it waa too wet
in the spring and advised spading up the
garden in tho fall and planting it with
vetch for a winter dressing, turning it
under in the spring.
After his talk he answered a large
number of questions as to details of cul
ture and bow to economize space, fight
pests, etc.
W. S. Carpcntor, of the 0. A. C. ex
tension department, who was present,
stated that he considered it one ri the
best talks of the kind which he ever
heard.
There was also the singing of national
eongs and music by ' the Junior high
school orchestra.
City Superintendent W. R. Rutherford
was unable to be present and hla talk
upon drainage and beautlficatlon of
school grounds will be given at some fu
ture meeting.
Baker Reviews
(Continued from page one)
mud, but the drivers by superhuman ef
fort maintained their even plaee in (he
line.
It was an exhibition marking tha pass
ing of the American army from purely a
peace establishment to one of the world's
real fighting forces.
Baker Addresses Officers.
After the review, Baker addressed the
officers, aayina::
"You are at the point of the wedge,
at the base of which America's entire
power Is being applied, through the
army."
The officers 'passed in single file,
shaking hands with their commander-in-chief.
Baker asked every officer his
name, it his superior wna not there to
Introduce him or If the officer did not
mention his name himself.
A drisallng rain began during the re
ception. Baker stood' through -it, bare
headed and smiling.
Addressing the first dlvleton of regu
lars, who had been ia the front lines,
Baker said:
"If 1 havLanyadvtc to jive you, it's
strike hard and shoot straight."
The secretary lauded New . England
troops, who had been in the trenches. He
declared all the divisions, whether na
tional guard, regulars or national army
men, were all pant of the homogenious
national force.
Regulars Flrat to Arrive. .
Baker pointed out that the flrat di
vision of regulars was the first' to ar
rive in France. He said the division was
regular in name only" sixty per cent
of its personnel being recruits, while the
majority of its officers were reserves.
"Tours waa the first experience in all
the initial details of adjusting yourselves
to new and strange conditions," he snid.
"If sometimes the discipline seems
wearying to you now, you must know
you would have paid for its lack with
your lives.
"The better you're trained, the more
valuable you are to your country as a
fighter.
"On every hand, I am told that you
are prepared to fight to the end. I see
this spirit in your faces. You may depend
on us at home to stand by you, in a spirit
worthy of yours.
"From the day of my arrival in France
I heard praise of the Mew England divis
ion which made good in its Initial experi
ence in the trenches, in a manner which
guarantees it will be equal to all emer
gencies. '
"The division - was trained -rapidly.
Some of Its members probably descend
ed from the minute men and from Ethan
Allen's moutnaineers, whose fathers came
to America before the revolutionary war.
They have an opportunity to prove the
quality of Americanism in the descend
ants of the pilgrims.
"After a long period of peace, com
mercial success and comfort, some skep
tics feared we had grown soft.
"I shall send home a message from the
men in France who have given np their
cofortabls home life for the trenches,
that we had not."
- Standing on the plateau among the
generals after the review, Baker's inevi
table pipe appeared, a tin tobacco box
flashed from hia pocket and he lighted
up.
Baker then called on a French general,
who complimented the American troops
on their appearance.
Later the secretary and Pershing vis
ited Joan of Arc's birthplace, passing
from room to room in tow of an aged
French woman, who acquainted them
with the intimate history of the place.
Earlier in the day, Baker had been
photographed with Carlisle Babcock, a
private in the marines. In civil life, back
in Cleveland, the Babcocks and Bakers
are great friends,
Tht day's events terminated Baker's
visit to the war section. Be departed to
complete other phases of his trip.
