COLLEGE GIRLS WILL
SPEND SUMMER ftT FARMS
BOSTON, April 20—Hundreds of
New England college girls, eager to
help Uncle Sam win the war, are or
ganizing agricultural units to aid in
cultivating and harvesting the record
crops that are planned for this section!
of the country this year. The move
ment is in charge of the Farm Asso
ciatoin, in co-operation with the state'
board of agriculture.
At Wellesley College squads of
young women, twenty to a squad, will
see through the crops on an adjacent
farm from planting to harvesting
time. Miss Catherine Hughes, daugh
ter of Charles E. Hughes, Republican
candidate for President in the last
national election, is a member of one
squad. The land which the Wellesley
girls will till comprises about sev
enty acres, and is located near the col
lege. From the volunteers for farm
service work a number of young
women will be selected to maintain
one of the smaller buildings on the
college grounds where they and the
tillers of the soil will live during the
summer.
Smith College has organized a large
farm unit, under the direction of Miss
Josephine A. Clarke, head librarian.
Fifty undergraduates and alumnaes of
the last three classes will make up
the unit. It will be named after the
“Hill Top,” Miss Clarke’s fifty-acre
place at Chesterfield, where the crops
will be raised.
Radcliffe College, too, will have a
farm unit. A. committee on student
volunteers, of which Miss Priscilla
Ring is chairman is working out or
ganization plans. These include the
leasing of a near-by farm. In prep
aration for the summer's work many
of the Radcliffe students are taking
a free course on vegetable raising.
Scores of young women students ir
other New England institutions ol
learning are making ready to lead the
advance guard of women back to the
farms, many of them to take the
places of men called to the colors
All these prospective girl farmers are
taking emergency war courses on ag
riculture.

SPECIAL GRANT ASKED
FOR MAUDE’S WIDOW
LONDON, March 6 (by mail).—
There was a stir in the house of com
mons the other day when the prime
miaister, David Lloyd George, sud-j
denly appeared on the floor Just be
fore the close with an important
looking document in his hand. In
stantly members began to sgpeculate
as to what might be the subject of
the announcement he was to make.
The premier started talking confi
dentially with one of the under war
ministers as soon as he had taken
his seat on the treasury bench, and
it was immediately inferred by ob
servers that the subject was military,
possibly the military situation in Ire
land or some development on the
fighting fronts. Other members no
ticed that Mr. Lloyd George was in
good spirits, and began whispering
about the likelihood of a great vic
tory somewhere, or perhaps good news
from the Irish convention.
Then the prime minister arose. His
messagtf’was a signed document from
the king, asking the authorization of
parliament for a grant of $125,000 to
Lady Maude, the widow of General
Frederick Stanley Maude, who com
manded the British expedition that
captured Kut and Bagdad. The gen
eral, after a wonderful career of vic
tory, died a poor man, leaving hardl>
more than enough to pay his funeral
expenses. The king’s request was re
ferred to its proper committee, and ii
is expected that the grant will b<
made in due course.
The habit of recognizing great vie
tories by public grants of money if
an old one in England, and most o:
the great British soldiers of the ole
wars benefited by it.
Wellington received three differeni
grants, amounting in all to $3,500,00<
Lord Roberts received $500,000 in 190:
and Kitchener received $400,000 fo:
his work in the Soudan and South Af
rlca. Lord Nelson received a pen
sion of $25,000 a year, charged agains
. the funds of the postoffice.
