Do Great Work in France

TOURS, Central France. Oct 9.

'Correspondence of the- Associated Press) American army engineers are

I doing more constructive work in

France today than was ever done on

the Panama canal.

I engineering project was, and more also than was ever done in a day on

an the river and harbor work of the United States. The comparison gives some idea of the magnitude of the

army construction now going on in

Europe, exceeding the most gigantic

operations ever undertaken at home.

The Panama construction force was

40.000 men: here it is a good sized

army in itself. It includes engineer troops and laborers of all kinds for

the constructive work, and foresters

for furnishing the material for construction, cutting down forests, running sawmills, supplying timber and

lumber.

The call for timber Is so tremendous

that the forestry force will have to be increased before long. Already it

la running seventy sawmills, and 200

more are required to keep up with

the construction. With this increase, the engineering force engaged on construction will reach more than twice as many as were employed on the Panama canal, the largest previous constructive work the United States ever undertook. Traveling across France from sea-

coast, one sees the magnitude' of this

American constructive work at every

hand, from , the miles of new docks and piers at the ports, then the American railway, telegraph and telephone lines, vast areas of warehouses, shops and factories, and finally the great stretches . of military camps and barracks for this army of over a million American troops. But while one sees this work In Immense detached parts, it is only at army headquarters that details are available on the magnitude of the work as a whole. On the one item of timber and lumber in this construction, the army foresters are called on to furnish nearly 500 million board feet of timber, of which 300 million feet is sawed lumber. This 500 million feet is no rough guess work, but it is the estimate of requirements 'carefully worked out by the engineers. The precise total of these estimates is 487,792 feet, or over 96,000 miles of lumber. This lumber is required to build docks,, barracks, for trench timbering, railway construction, building barges, warehouses, hospitals, railway cars, and for telegraph and telephone poles. This, with the provision for firewood, makes the huge total of nearly 500 million feet, which the engineering foresters must supply for this constructive work. It is this which will Increase . the forestry force three fold and increase the sawmills they are running to nearly 300.

rre ire lit ozi i ur int uenuid Writes William Knauber From Camp

The following letter has been received from William R. Knauber by his father and sisters. Knauber is now at an eastern camp awaiting overpeas orders. He expresses the hope that he will be sent to Russia. The

letter fololws: "I am feeling great. Almost every fellow in our battalion is pretty tired at present for we have been allowed a lot of liberties during the past days for sightseeing, etc. I am ready to go to bed early tonight for the first time in several days. It was certainly fine that we were allowed permits to' see New York. I taw the 'Passing Show of 1918" night before last. It was fine. After the show we strolled up Broadway and our "hob nails" carried us right along as if we had had on $20 English kids. Everybody gives a fellow the once over when he has on "hob nails." wrap legglns, caps, etc., ns they know we have our overseas duds and are no doubt waiting for transportation over. Speaking of clothes. I wish you could see our new winter ones. The socks look like thawls, our tow pairs of hob nails are

plenty big enough, and two pairs of these said socks go in them fine. Our wool suits weigh about a ton as do steel helmets, but they are a dream, they are fine and round on top, and camouflaged. They aall come In one size, but inside of the crown is a round hollow cushion with a net and cord to adjust the fit; a three-fourth inch strap is snapped on in each side and goes down under the chin we're all set for the Germans. I'll say, and we are going to try our "derndesf to eat Christmas dinner in a burg called Berlin. Every thing 13 Liberty Loan here in the East no doubt it is the same at home. There have been some grand parades. Some of the window displays are great. I saw Ed Wiechman this morning. He is feeling fine, he said, and may go over scon."

"Every man in the plant feels the keenest grief at his loss," Tierman continued.

Russel L. Jenkins, son of Charles M. Jenkins, of South Nineteenth street is now located at Camp Lee, Virginia, In the Casual detachment unit, a recently organized portion of the camp made up of specialists or experts of various lines, such as expert mechanics, engineers, firemen, boilermakers, railroaders, balloonists, aerounautics, doctors, lawyers, linguists, etc. It is probably one of the most highly trained units of men in the camp, it is stated. The work of assigning men to this detachment is done through the mustering office where the qualifications, profession, or line of business for which each man is best fitted, is re

corded. Later, if men of a certain qualification are wanted they are assigned to the casual detachment to await transferal to the place in which they are most needed. Herbert P. Bradley has been transfered from Madison Barracks, New York, to Co. 3. U. S. A. P., Kodak Park, Rochester. N. Y. "London looks more like home than Paris," writes T. J. White, son of Mrs. J. A. White, of New Paris, in a recent letter. The letter was written in England, where White is now stationed, and continuing he said: "London Isn't so gay and wide awake as Paris, but

aside from being more dark, gloomy and quiet, and having worse weather, it seems more like home."

feacT Thoughtfully

nPHE largest loss on hogs is not due to death caused by the many different diseases common among them, but because they are not as heavy at marketing time as they should be for the food they have consumed. It is impossible to so handle hogs as to get the full benefit of every pound of food they eat. When you market your hogs you must realize that hundreds of pounds of valuable food have passed through them to waste on the ground. 'h While this is true, it is known by the best hog men in the country that there is a way of getting the very most possible out of this feed. Here is the reason: Because of the short life of the hog, a simple mixture of necessary minerals and well-known non-poisonous drugs can be given him daily during his entire life without injury. Such a mixture should consist of BONE PHOSPHATE, for building bone; SULPHATE OF SODA, for keeping the bowels loose and regular; SULPHATE OF SODA and CHARCOAL, for stimulating and aiding digestion; COPPERAS and SULPHUR, for the blood tonic and for purifying the blood; and CARBONATE OF SODA, as a bowel antiseptic. No matter how you obtain a perfect combination mineral-conditioner of this kind, it will be good for your hogs. Careful, comparative feeding tests by practical hog men like yourself have proved that such a mixture causes the hog to put on more flesh with the same food. This is true no matter what the feeding arrangement is, the kind of feed, or how good or how inferior it is. Unless you are using something of this kind, you are not getting the gain that you ought to get out of the feed you are now giving your hogs; in other words, unless you are using such a preparation you are wasting feed. And it amounts to far more than the price of the preparation above described. The only difference between your wasting HIGH-PRICED HOG FEED and taking $5.00 Gold Pieces out of your own pocket and throwing them as far as your strength will permit, is that you may be able to find some of the $5.00 Gold Pieces but the HIGH-PRICED FOOD IS GONE FOREVER. A really careful, comparative fesding test made by you, giving such a preparation to a part of your hogs, will further convince you of the truth of the foregoing known facts.
