Story <>r untie Child Found hy tho European Fighters. A (ll8|)Htcll neill out I rom London Phyllis Trenches, n bright, blue eyed, flaxen-haired baby ghi o? lour, to-day at Bedford, Hug., is Hie prin cipal figuro in perhaps elie most ro mantic little story of tho big war. Phyllis ia tho adopten pride and loy of tho Bedfordshire regiment, lier given name was derived from one Private Phillip tm poy, who picked her out of a ditch in an isolated and un romantic part ol' northern France while tho Bedl'ordshlres were inarch ing by. "Tronchos" is the only ap propriate surname for Phyllis because Phyllis lived with her soldier foster parents in a cold and clammily trench ; op the tiring line for eight long days. When and how this four-year old happened to be in a ditch, wet and weak from cold, as Private Impoy's comp'iny was passing toward the. ll rsl ]i<nc trenches, probably never will bo explained. lt was Impey, however, who stepped out ol line to Kal her tho c'hild up in his arms. Impey was told by an olMcor a moment later that, bo would el tiber have to leave the little girl or lake her along. So Phyllis wont to the 'trenches. Within throe days she bad recovered from expos ure and was tho pet of the company, both oltlcors and men. Infant cloth ing had appeared seemingly from no where, but there was suspicious evi dence that moro than one khaki uni form had lost its shape in favor of the Daughter of the Regiment. The best and safest dugout and the softest trench hod were Phyllis's and there wasn't a soldier who wouldn't have cut off a log to make her happy. The Berman trenches wore 150 yards away. One day Phyllis was missing. Shouts from the enemy's trenches helped to lind her. She was boldly toddling in "No Man's Land" toward the Herman lines. The Her mans were beckoning her on A hun dred Bedfordshircs were ready in an instant to risk their lives for Phyllis. Two, who wore quicker than the rest, ran forward and got her and not a shot was fired. After that Phyllis ventured over ibo parapet several times. No Herman offered to harm her and there was an understood truce when the child'appeared. Hight days of trench duty for the Bedfordshlres finally ended. Phillip Impey died from a bullet wound on ?the seventh day and the company quartero.'aster sergeant gladly be came father to Phyllis. She was taken back to billet life and never allowed in the trenches again. She was placed in charge of a company stor-?man who bad children of his own. He took great pride in father ing Phyllis while the company did duly on the firing line. Six months 1 ait er tho company (pia rt erm astor ser geant was wounded and sent back to a hospital in Kngalnd. Phyllis went along. She was soon the pet ol' the patients and nurses and lt was a sad day in thal hospital when Phyllis and ber foster lather wore sent to Bed ford. Hie former lo Dud a home and Ute latter to convalesce. Phyllis Tronchos has a real home to-day and a real foster mother. She is still, however, the child ol' the Bed fordshlres, who have pledged theni se'lves to sec? that she wants for not ti - in;; throughout the remainder ol' her eventful young life.

'I' 'I* l**l*tyty ty TOMATO cui/ruitK. ?I? ?J. .J. .J. .J. .?.?J. .{.?J. ..J. tytytytytytyty^tyty (Clemson College Bulletin.) Tho tomato is ono of the most pop ? Itar garden vegetables, lt is grown in practically every garden, even though there may he but a low plants. For the average family lt is only necessary to sot out one hun dred plants lu <i small space to ob tain a siiH'tciei't supply for the table I during tho summer, and a surplus to can for winter use. The tomato re sponds quickly to proper attention or to neglect. If ?be soil is properly prepared and the plants properly cul tivated and fertilized and kept free from insect ami fungus diseases, good results are nlmo.st certain. On the other hand, If tomatoes do not receive (lose attention and care, ii is practically useless to plunt tiran. Cultivai ion of Co Soil. The tomato grows well on most ?.ny ivpo ->f soil. Ker bottle use it is only necessary to select a good garden spot that would give good results with other vegetables. This soil, when thoroughly prepared, is satis factory, but, for early crops, a light windy loam is best. The soil should be broken deep, at 'east. 12 inches, and thoroughly pul verized. Clods are very objectiona ble in the garden, not only fo?'toma to culture, but for other veAtablos as well. Therefore, as sooujjfias the soil is broken, these clods, "sf there are any. should be pulverized nt. once. If they are allowed to'dry be fore they aro broken lt ls difficult to put the soil in proper condition. If tho soil is spaded, a good plan ls to thoroughly pulverize the soil as each spadeful is turned. When the plow is used, follow with tho harrow Im mediately. The tomato ls a gross feeder, there fore, it is necessary for the soil to bc very fertile. A good application of well-rotted stable manure, scat tered broadcast and thoroughly work eil into tho soil, is most essen tial. This manure assists in retain ing moisture for the plants; loosens stiff soils, as well as furnishing plant food. Our potash supply this year is very limited, and for that reason sta ble manure is particularly needed. When the soil ls properly prepared for setting the plants, scatter in the drills commercial fertilizer at'the rate of about ROO pounds per acre. This should analyze about S |>er cent phos phate. :? lier cent nitrogen, and from ('< to 8 per cent potash. As lt is al most impossible to obtain potash this year, about the best fertiliser that can be used, not on'ly for tomatoes, but for other vegetables, is a'mixture of equal parts, by weight, of acid phosphate and cotton seed -meal. Ap ply in the drill at the rate of GOO pounds jier acre, or 10 pounds for the 100 plants for the home garden tomato plot. About the time the plants begin to bloom give a side dressing of the saine amount of the fertilizer. Give the plants frequent and shal low cultivation to keep the 'weeds and grass down, ami to retain n/Alaturo. Cultivate after each rain as soon as the ground ls dry enough. The soil should be stirred at-least once a week whether- it rains or not. This prac tice should be observed with all veg etables in the garden. Training the Plants. For home use it ls bettor to train thc tomato plants to a single stem. Set the plants in rows three feet apart and IS inches In the drill. Re move all laterals as soon as they ap pear and keep the plants tied to a slake in order to keep thom from fall ing over. This practice of training will result in the production of bet ter fruit and eliminate moat of the rotting. Varieties of Tomatoes, \ For an early crop ol' smooth,1 at tractive tomatoes. Spark's lOarlianna is about the best variety to plant. Set out the plant? as soon as all dan ger of frost is over. For home use. the fi rsl planting should consist ol' one-half lOarlianna and one-halt Stone plants. In order to gather fresh tomatoes all summer, make successive plantings of the Stone va riety every four weeks until about August l">th. There will be green tomatoes on the plants that were set out last when frost appeal's. If these vines are pulled lip and hung utldei shelter before they are damaged by frost, most of this green fruit will ripen. When the plants are handled in this manner we have had fresh to matoes from Uhc garden until nearly Ch list mas. Diseases ol' Tomatoes. The tomato is subject to severa diseases that are exceedingly injuri ous. The tomato wilt is one of tin most destructive. About the tinu tho plants begin to fruit heavily, tin plants wilt and die in tho course of ? day or two. The leaves appear as I hot water had been poured on them If the bark is peeled, the inner por ?ion of 'he stem Will be dark. WU attacks the plant mainly through Hw roots, lt comes Hom Hie soil. Sine? il works inside the plant lt cannot bt rout rolled by spraying. The secre of success lies in prevention. Neve plant tomatoes in soil infested wi tl wilt. I! tomatoes willed in the gar den last year, and they are growi there this yeo I", wilt \r almost cor tain lo reappear, In such cases, th only safe pinn is to buy clean plant and place them in fresh soil.. Be sur and secure plants freo from wilt Kit her grow them at home, or bu from a reliable dealer. Then place ii soil free from wilt. Blight attacks the leaves and ten 1er shoots. This can be eoMrollei largely by spraying with Bardenu mixture. Put on the Hist npplicatlo about ?lie time tho plants are 0 or Inches high and repeat at Intervalls o two weoKs. This spraying will als reduce tomato rot.

(Charleston Sunday Nows.) "Say, friend, all this talk you read about in the papers about the horrors and Inhumanities of the European war is mostly bosh. It all ain't as black as it is painted. There is some sunshine coming through the clouds," said lid ward H?hner, chief steward of the barkentlne Marie, now in port. "Von would think from all tho sto ries they write that tho soldiers haUd each other wosser than pisen. 'Tain't so, bud, tain't so. They would make you believe that they were ready to j gouge eac'h other's eyes out and kill each other just for the love of kill ing. It ain't a word of truth in it. 'vit course, the big folks at the head has got their honor to preserve, and they are getting the 'poor devils to do it for thom, but you misjudge the soldiers if you think they relish their tasks. They don't do it, my boy. They are not cruel to each other more than they can help. Of course, M is cruel to kill a man, but they only do it In the line of duty. In time of battle they tight, and light to kill, but afterward they ls sorry for the poor wounded and dying soldiers. 1 know what I am talking about, for I was a prisoner ol' war for nigh on six months in a lOngllsh prison camp. "You walli to hear about it, friend? Well, on thc second day of November, about 10 o'clock iii the morning, we was a-Sailing along off the Scottish coast, when, poul'!-just behind usa British cruiser was a-blowed up sky high. Out rush08 some other British men-of-war who were in the neigh borhood, to try and capture bhe Ger man submarine. They didn't see any; only poor us, a-saillng away as Past as our sea legs will carry us. They think as >how we done it by planting mines and they gave chase. Presently they lires a gun acrost our I bows for us to stop, and we stopped, j 1)-d quick. '"riley sent a boarding officer , aboard us to see our papers, aild he j says for us to put back to the Scot tish coast. Afterward they sent us to j Belfast, and then wc are transferred 1 to Fleetwood. There a body of sold- I let's came down to the ship, a-march- ? lng with fixed bayonets. They formed , a semi-circle around the dock, so that ; none ol' the prisoners could get away, j and told us to come ashore . "Gee, but it looked skittish then. M made my flesh creep. Then after I we were all off Mic ?hip they closed j in around us and marched us down to the prison. "Afterward we were transferred to j Shrewsbury in a big car with big let- j tors painted on the car, 'Prisoners of War.' "When we readied Shrewsbury Mic commandant came out to receive us, and in a little talk told us that as lotiig as we behaved ourselves and obeyed the prison discipling we would have no 'trouble. "Then he assigned each of us to a company of prisoners, and we went to barracks, where every man was given a bcd, feaMier pillow, three blankets, toilet roquisMcs, including hair brush and comb, tooth brush, a half dozen personal towels and table necessities, knife, fork, spoon, otc. We were given a plenty to eat, Mi ree meals a day. The only restrictions were that we were locked up at night, but the doors were opened in the morning at (? o'clock, ancL- we could wander over the reservation. "At 10 o'clock inspection was held to see if wc were all present. This was done by number. My number was 00:5. At inspection they also ex amined us to sec if our clothes were clean and sanitary. This was done to avoid camp fever. "We were not governed by British soldiers at all. but. by our own men. The commandant selected one out of each hundred ?nd made him prison captain, and he gave his orders di rect to the captain. He always se iet ted men who spoke English well, Iso there could ho no misunderstand ing ol' orders. And we were told to chev our captains. "I will tell you, bud, the biggest surprise of your life.
