Dr. Kingston's ne*v Grand Forks hospital was opened for patients this week, and the Cottage hospital has been closed. The new hopital is a a large, substantial building, con structed of concrete blocks, of pleasing architectural design, and is strictly modern in every respect. It is large enough for the requirements of a city two or three times the size of Grand Forks, and is undoubtedly the best oncl most conveniently ar ranged hospital building in south ern British Columbia. The doctor deserves a great deal of credit for his perseverance in bringing this enterprise to a successful end. fects and interests in this valley except his ranch, and his brother, A. D. Morrison, will look after that for him. Mrs. Morrison and daughter have been living in Toronto for the past three or four months. The. breaking of plate glass in store windows appears to have become epidemic once more. ^This week one of the windows in the Boundary Feed & Supply company's store was smashed. It would probably teach some of the dt-gen erates who engage in thts vicious pastime a salutary lesson if tbe police could apprehend tbem and make an example of them. People in the .country also complain of their orchards and gardens being robbed, in some instances on a commercial scale. Tbe provincial police should look after these night raiders. The producers at home, who help to support the armies of the empire, are entitled to protection from marauders, and they should have it. The members of the Independent Company of Riiles say they were royally entertained at tbe Greenwood fair last Friday. The Emma mine is being pumped out. This property may soon be shipping 100 tous of ore daily to the Greenwood smelter. S. P. Dixon and Sam Wickwire, having completed the cement sidewalk at the government building, have returned to Greenwood. Tom Peck is again handling the punch on the Boundary C. P. K. passenger train. Conductor Mesker is coking a two weeks' vacation. Six new recruits were added to the Independent Company of Rifles Ibis week. \ Between twenty-five and thirty Grand Forks people attended the Greenwood fair last Friday.

It contaius a thrill in every word; Word was received in the city yesterday that J. C. MacDouald had died at Rescue, Cal., on Wednesday. Mr. MacDonald was master mechanic at the Granby smelter iu 1901-2. He resignsd from that position to establish the Grand Forks Steel & Structural Iron Worksjwhich he ennducted in partnership with his brother, Angus, nntil the plant was moved to Vancouver. After accumlating a fortune in the iron and contracting business Mr. MacDonald retired from active life, and of late years he has been living in California. He had many 'warm personal friends in Graod Forks. Grand Forks poultrymen won tbe following prizes at the Greenwood fair: Utility pen, Wm. Liddicoat 1st, J. A. MeCallum 2nd; egg and broiler po.i, J.

F Laws tendered the directors of the Grand Forks Agricultural asso ciation a banquei at the Yale hotel on Wednesday night in commemoration of the splendid success of the sixth annual fair. Good cheer prevailed during the evening, and nearly every one present contributed toward making the occasion a pleasant one by making a brief speach. W. J. Meagher received word from the coast on VVednesday that he had lost his case fur damages against the Granby company. The case was tried in this city about four months ago, Judge MacDonald presiding. Mr. Meagher was crippled for life while employed in the Granby smelter a year ago. Much sympathy is expressed by the citizens for Mr. Meagher. MILL IMPROVEMENTS Development on an unusually large scale of the British Columbia Copper company's holdings, in British Columbia will be made at once, according to statements, made by Oscar Laohmund. who has returned to Greenwood from a business trip to Portland,'Ore., and. points in California. Mr. Lachmund outlines the company's plans as follows: Eventually we plan to erect a 2000- ton daily capacity concentrator at our Copper mountain properties, which will cost about 8500,000. This will be operated by a power plant, either at Princeton or Coalmont, that will require approximately 8300,000 to construct and equip, and if the Kettle Valley railway does not extend its line to Copper mountain we will construct an aerial tram from the camp to Princeton, about nine miles. This feature of our plans is contingent upon the action of the railway company, and no definite decision will be reached until we know if the line from Priuceton to the camp is to be built. We have the ore tonnage to assure sufficient revenue to justify building the line, and it probably will be constructed. We have S,000,000 tons of ore proven at Copper mountain that will run 1.75 per cent copper, with a profitable additional reserve of 2,000,000 tons of the same grade. The properties have been extensively explored by diamond drills and we are ready to begin permanent development at any time. We did 28,000 feet of diamond drilling there last year, besides opening an extensive series of surface trenches, pits and shallow shafts, and we have three diamond drills operating now, each making about 33 feet daily. This has demonstrated the existence of enough ore to justify the construction of the concentrator, power plant and trarr:- way. At Greenwood we are treating about 860 tons of copper ore daily, principally from the Mother Lode mine and the Lone Star. We are working 100 men at the Mother Lode, 25 at the Lone Star and 55 in the smelter, where we are operating hut one furnace on acceunt of ore short- custom ship- age. VV e arc treating ments from Oroville and Republic and formerly we handled the output of several Coeur d'Alene properties. Eventually we hope to build up a big custom trade in thc northwest, on both sifles of the line. Engineer James Blake and.

Dewdney recently wired fo the minister of militia at Ottawa, stating lhat the people of Greenwood had raised money for two machine guns, and wished to present them to the oith battalion. As the oeo- ple of Greenwood and district were the first to subscribe for machine guns, it was felt that the money subscribed should be used for that purpose. The factory can deliver the guns in January. Mr. Dewdney received an answer by wire as follows: "Ottawa, Sept. 27, 1915. ��������� Lettergram 25th received, and will accept your guns with pleasure.

Surely where such an idea seems, so common it ���������mist, be so or something" must be wiong with the way these birds are handled. Jn our own opinion the, latter is the case for tlie later chicks nine cases out of ten do hot begin to *i,<'i. the same attention or treatment the- earlier ones get. Tiiere are several reasons that may Lf ascribed .to this. Human nature ���������stems to enthuse much more over the tne accomplishment of anything* during the early stage." and before many ���������liiiieuLties present themselves. The tariy spring is usually like the starting'point of each and enthusiasm is at its ���������highest, for'the production of a line lot of chicks. All is carefully planned- Correct methods outlined ���������and tha first few hatches get the best of-attention. Then the birds begin to crowd and the smaller ones get less and less attention in the enthusiasm to keep those showing promise coming f.iong*. Instead of giving closer attention "to the smaller chicks and letting* lhe bigger ones shift more for ,tliemr ieives which they better can, the opposite is usually the case. When we consider that there are possibilities in many of these late hatched chicks lor making lhe very best of birds with proper treatment, it seems a serious waste to simply let them die off after going to the expense andvtrouble of hatching them. . "** The experience as to number hatched and appearance o'* the chicks would srem io show that summer chicks Fhoiilrl.have as good or better a chance than chickens hatched at almost any other time. Right from start to finish if they.are given the same fa-ir chance f.j. the earlier ones almost better re- suits may be hoped for from them. Of i-ourse they will not be matured when it begins to settle into cold weather, find'unless kept coming right along will become sfui-ted and remain way under size. It is, of course, out of the tjijestion to try to keep them where 1 hey: will be beaten about by birds bigger than themselves. Under these '���������onditions they don't get more than half.enough to eat and are so worried and kept at a distance that what lhey consume could not. furnish growth, at .-.-profit.

In view of past experience it is well worth while to make the most of any ol these that arc growing in a fairly satisfactory way and handle ilicm as inough everything depended on their getting the greatest consideration. Anyone who experiences the surprise of "seeing some of these birds fairly stride into prominence and' perhaps overshadowing earlier birds that prom- isiied to be exceptional that have been (he idols of the place will realize the value of giving these birds 'every chance. For the past two years we-havc made a practice of putting backward males that gave appearance of promise' with flocks of females to train them to consider themselves "Gock's- of-the-walk" and the result is almost instantaneous. Many a good "bird has been developed in this way that was destined to be a disheartened good-for- nothing, in this respect the birds are much like humans, so long as enthusiasm is high and no discouragements arise we are inclined to make the best of progress but hold us down so rhat no initiative or freedom can be exercised and all our growth and activities are immenselv dwarfed.

Keep the Land Clean Application of Manure Profitable Practice to Keep Fertilizer Comparatively Near the Surface There is always a loss" of. soil fertility and good farming methods seek to constantly replenish the soil with humus, the larger will be the inevitable loss due to natural farm operations. There is.a limit to which we can enrich, soils, and that limit; is determined probably by climatic | conditions, and partly probably '.by j soil conditions: there is a limit be-1 vond which it would not pay to put��������� plant food in', the soil. There is j greater economy in. frequency of ap- j 'nlicafion, for thereby we reduce the ���������natural waste of fertility. On most soils, particularly light soils*5.tons per acre every third year will give a better return than 20 tons -every sixth vear, simply because there will be les's loss. Of course, the Question of labor has to bs considered in a matter of this kind: but inasmuch as we require three meals a day and cannot get the same benefit by taking one meal a-day, so we think it would be more economical for our plants to be fed every year than to endeavor to load up the- soil, say once in five or in ten years, as the case might be- ,"',",. ( The larger number of the feeding \ roots lie fairly close to the surface; at least, in humid districts. In arid and semi-arid countries there is a tendencv for the roots to go down ���������il'tcr moisture, and we may have'a ���������Irv earth mulch of six or eight inches in which there will be no feeding roots, or practically none. The roots of plants lake in their loot! in the form of a solution, and therefore the roots must go down to water to t*-et 1 heir food. Speaking of East- erifcanada, where there is an ample precipitation? usually and this is fairlv well distributed throughout the season, we find-the larger number of the feeding roots fairly to the" surface, say v six inches of soil, case, we do not thinl economy in burying There .will be a larger limited amount of manure by turning it. under, or by- close ithin the first f such is the there is any (he manure, return from a lightly merely carrying* it in to the prepared surface, as bv discing, than by burying it by deep" ploughing. Of course, there are soils which need deepening, and that should be done gradually; aud there is no doubt that the deeper the surface soil is. the better condition the soil is in" to conserve moisture. But we have to consider that we have only a limited amount of manure������������������ and unfortunately it is in all too small quantities on the majority of our farms���������and we have to make the most of it. Consequently, we think it is going to be a more profitable practice to keep the manure comparatively Evsry Means Should be Used to Keep Land Clean of Weeds Persons traveling* through the country this summer speak, with misgivings of the amount of weed growths to be seen.scattered through splendid f grain, ft would be most'mile if, through lack <of precautions, (he spread of wild and pernicious plants should become more gen- era], in the province, of which' there is grave danger once the pesls become rooted in the soil and are allowed to grow and ripen. Every careful far. i- ers fears the spread of flic seed of these plants as he fears a plague being- aware of the damage they su-a capable of doing. r '.���������.- To eradicate or prevent the spread of noxious weeds, hard work and care or the utmost vigilance.are necessary, for these things do not right themselves without an effort on the part of the farmer. 'A' western exchange, discussing the weed problem, remarks: * "No evil seems ever able to .reform itself, and booze his ���������'.been no exception. Attacked years ago. iust.ead of washing* out the spots from its garments and keeping them clean, it organized to fight back. It talks eloquently.of compensation for property injured by the enactment of prohibitory laws, but the farmer who, year after year, against law and warning, permits millions of noxious weeds to grow, till finally the whole community becomes infested, may. count himself fortunate if he should escape "without having to pay for the work of cutting and burning his green crop and for damage done to his neighbor's, and he will not raise the question of damages, lest even-handed jutsice 'shall brankrupt him. Likewise the sum invested in ali breweries, distilleries and usaolesale and retail liquor houses would only be a tithe toward paying for Ilia havoc wrought by drink even in material matters." . The careful farmer does not have to be told of the loss to himself through permitting his land to become "dirty." He uses every means in his power to keep his place clear of weeds, yet fhe unfortunate thing is that he is largely at the mercy of his neighbors in this.respect, and no matter how vigilant the inspectors are, there is bound to: be more or less spread of weeds from the farm, the owner of which does not show himself sufficiently alive to the seriousness of the matter to take upon himself the eradication of deleterious growths. The provincial and municipal governments can do much to save the land from weeds, but (here is no remedies like those which rest with the owners themselves.���������Saskatoon Star.

Iceless Refrigerators It is not necessary to purchase tha commercial type of this very- con- -enient article- but housekeepers in rural communities who do not have a supply of ice should copy the very effective device used by a number of women in the western part of the state. Construct the frame work of a cupboard from four 2x2 posts, and line the inside of the cupboard with wire netting to make it proof against mice and flies- On the outside of the cupboard, so that it will not touch tlie wire netting, tack burlap. For the top of the cupboard have the tinner make a galvanized iron tank exactly lire size of the cupboard, and four to six inches deep. The bottom of the tank forms the top of the cupboard. Keep the tank full of water, wet the burlap thoroughly, and hang woollen clothes around three sides of the tank. These cloths carry water from the tank to the burlap and the evaporation of the water serves to cool the inside of the refrigerator. (By Grace Yiall Gray, in the Country Gentleman) One day a farmer came into his house to find his wife dressed for driving. "Where, are you going?" lie asked. "Didn't you go to town yesterday for the, groceries?" , . "1 am going out to form a rural club," she replied and with that she tied the baby's-bonnet and asked (he husband fo carry his daughter lo the carriage. J3ut he, manlike, still persisted iu knowing* more about this new, unexpected project of his wife's, so he "asked: ''What's lhe idea, .Mary? Haven't- you enough to do without adding more to your work?" Her answer silenced him for (ha time at least: ''John,-look here..* We have been married three years. 1 have I told you all I know and yon have told me all'you know, so I'm going to form a club "and learn something new." Such was the beginning of a rural club in Wisconsin. The husband reports that since his wife formed her little club of women, who, like herself, self ���������"stagnant," has been a much better companion and a betler- naturcd wife and mother. your plans, for she may have splendid: ideas.

The .teacher can make knowD her needs and wants and also gain the assistance of mothers in helping., in school discipline, entertainments and social affairs. . - "But why all this talk * about a club?" you are probably asking. "Why is thc club so necessary?" Vou wil'i find our answer in all the little rural clubs that are now scattered over the. states���������each one making' life more in- teresling for its members and their families. The women in them seem lo feel - that one of (he greatest things that result from their club meetings is a. closer and doarsr relationship among neighbors. As one member expresses it: "Perhaps (he greatest thing wa have accomplished has been tha unifying of lhe members- into a sisterhood of very dear friends." Isn't ihnt worth sl.rivi:g for?

And this is particularly Irue of the conntry_ woman. 'Any woman who wants-a club hard enough can form one- Nineteen years-ago a few country women living near Marslralltowti. Iowa, fell the need of.a little sociability and met very informally at one another's homes. Gradually (he idea of a club with studies grew, until now these women have a thoroughly successful, practical and useful club. One of the best and most satisfactory ways to go about forming a club is to co-operate with the woman's club in town. There should be greater cooperation between town and country women, and there is no better" place to start than in thc organization of your club. The town women, with their greater facilities for study and library work and with their past experience, can bo a great source of help io you. One valuable source of information for country women is tlie state agricultural -college. A card dropped to the agricultural college of the slate in which you live will bring, free of charge, any ������������������pamphlets, leaflets, programme outlines and so on, that it may have. Frequently an'extension worker can be obtained to organize or address a club -*t the state's expense. The club that makes such a request usually pays carfare and incidental expenses, such as entertainment, while the instructor is in town. Sometimes the teacher, who has charge of your country school will be glad to act as a leader in getting* the club under way. The schoolhouse makes an admirable meeting place. Many women prelY-r it to meeting at one another's homes. Consult the rural teacher before advancing far in the the for are . i to meet? * A club offers relaxation from daily routine of work- It satisfies hunger of many clever women more'-menial work.

In the absence of authoritative statistics as to the number of men engaged, it is impossible to compare the relative losses by wounds', and' by death in the present campaign with previous experiences. The ratio of killed to wounded and missing is at 1 to 4.-25 or-28.5 per cent. In the Crimea the ratio of killed to the number wounded and missing was as 1 to -1.4 or."22:7 per cent.; in the Franco-German war of 1S70 it was as 1 to 5.70, or 17.53 per cent;; in the Russo-Turkish ws-- it was as 1 to 2.17, or 45.98; per. cent.; in South Africa it was as 1 to 5 .or 20 per cent.

Will Operate Oil-Burning Locomotives in Mountain Section Mr. Morley Donaldson, vice-president of the Grand Trunk Pacilie Railway^** announces that the installation of oil-burning locomotives on the mountain section of tiie line has now been completed. These locomotives are of the most modern type and were placed iu service for passenger traffic. They are operating from Jasper to Prince Rupert, over 719 miles of main line. Especial interest attaches to the installation of this class of motive power, as it marks the first use of oil burners on au extensive scale in Canada. Great oil storage tanks have been erected at various points along the line for supplying locomotives with the necessary fuel. With the operation of these locomotives there is a complete absence of the discomforts which sometimes arise from the use of coal with its tendency to give off dust aud grit. The section of the line on which these locomotives are being used passes through the finest scenic territory in the Canadian Rockies and the absence of coal dust, it is believed, will add to the pleasure of tha journey. The' Grand Trunk Pacific Steamships '"Prince George" and '"Prince Rupert," -which operate from the Pacific terminal of the* line at Prince Rupert to Victoria, Vancouver and Seattle, are also oil burners, and this gives the Grand Trunk Pacific nearly 1,51-1) miles of rail and wat^r route oa which this form of fuel only is used.

Those who wonder that tlie people of Germany are induced to consider calmly the awful calamities war has brought upon the ixalion, should not loose ,'sight of the fact that very lit- tl(^ of the actual truth regarding them Is allowed to bo known in that country. iVir. Asquith stated-in the house of commons' that the total casualties in all ranks of the French and Mediterranean Expeditionary Forces u pto May 31 'were i'oS.COS. He gave details showing how many officers and how many men "of other,ranks" had been killed, were wounded, and were missing up to that date. In its evening edition of the following day, namely the 10th tilt., the Tagltciie Rundschau, of Berlin, published a telegram from its special correspondent at The Hague in which it was staffed that ''Asquith has announced in parliament that the total of the English losses in France is 1,- 5S5/109, of whom 10,955..are officers!" The Tagliche .Rundschau,- which is read chiefly in army and naval circles printed this "news" in prominent type, and rendered it still more-conspicuous by placing over it the heading, "A Million and a Half English Losses." In the first place, the German public is informed that the losses were sustained in France, "whereas"* Mr. Asquith stated clearly that these were the-'casualties''"in. the French and Mediterranean Expeditionary Forces." In the second place the Berlin newspaper adds 1,327,3*10 to the number of the casualties iu other rarrks mentioned by Mr. Asquith. It gives correctly the number of men missing, namely 52,5.17:;-. but it increases to a fabulous degree the mrniber ot killed and wounded. This is, of'course, one.of the expedients adopted by the German authorities to keep up the spirits of the German public, and to convince the people that Germany is gaining brilliant victories 'on'all .sides." The public '-will' believe this statement, as it has believed all the statements issued by the authorities in which the repeated capture of hundreds of thou-, sands of Russian .soldiers"and of untold numbers of guns has been announced. It has been trained to have no opinion of its own'in military matters, and to accept' blindly every statement made by the. military authorities. About a month ago, when the German armies achieved their first important successes in Galicia, the reports that circulated throughout Germany were no extravagant that an authoritative statement was made in the matter. l.t transpired that the number of Russian prisoners taken had been multiplied in some cases by ten, in others, and even in Berlin, by twenty! The authorities acknowledged that practically the same report of prisoners taken had been received from both the German .and the Austrian headquarters, and that tiie two 'totals had been added together before the report was issued to the newspapers!

Foch is the hero of the Marne, the man who perceived that there must be a gap between the Prussian Guard and the Saxon army, and who gathered enough artillery to force the Prussians and the Saxons, now separated, to retreat. He is als*) the man who did much to prevent the Germans getting through to Calais, for he was iu general control of the successful ilight made by the French, British and Belgians, an denabled Joffre to say, on a certain date, "It is now our time to turn." Foch and Joffre were born within about three months- of one another, the 'former on October li, 1S51, and Joffre on January 12. 1852. In 1870 Foch served as a subaltern against the Germans, as did Joffre, and after the war both of them -began to win recognition as soldiers of brains. Foch being given a commission as artillery captain 'when he was twenty-six- Later he became professor of tactics in the Ecole de-Guerre, with the title of commandant, where he remained for five years, afterwards winning" rapid advancement. Cool, cautious, taciturn, Foch is a man whom Germany fears; but lie is loved by every French soldier, for he is credited with knowing all there is to know about the man who fights in the ranks���������his heart, his mind, his capabilities, and the method of getting the most out of those capabilities. Foch makes it his business to get into personal contact with his soldiers, as Napoleon used to do.-���������Tit-Bits. Asthma Victims.���������The man or woman subject to asthma is indeed a victim.

Co-operation originated in the dairy countries of Europe, and if has worked wonders in revolutionizing the. conditions of the' farmers in (he formerly impoverished lands of Holland, Denmark aud the Channel Islands. Organization is essential To tho welfare of the American fanners. This has been proved by the co-operative elevator, the co-operative creamery, and the co-operative cow- testing associations. The co-operative cow-testing associations are revealing some wonderful facts lo"tlie ' farmers and 'dairymen who have become members. In fact, the results are so surprising to the owners of he herds under test that every cow these men see is looked upon with suspicion. They ���������immediately begin to calculate on the cow's ability at the pail and'wonder if her real value is hidden beneath the of skin and flesh. If anyone doubts the value of cow-testing association lie needs have a talk with the'members, one of the Iowa Testing associations' a 7ri0-pound butler cow was discovered. This record was made on a renter's farm, where conditions were by no means ideal. The herd of which this cow is a member receives a'good ration and is given the best possible care under the conditions. The her^I average during the past year has been 9,697 pounds of milk and 3-11.'!) pounds of fat. Accurate records kept on the feed show that the needs of the cows were studied very closely. The average cost of feed per cow during the year was $46.12 and the net profit ������72.22. The herd at the present time sists mainly of grade Holsteins a few pure breds. A pure bred has been used for the past six years and the records mentioned are the result of a consistent system of breeding up. When this work was started the herd consisted of twelve cows of promiscuous breeding. The unprofitable animals were eliminated as soon as they were apprehended and the best cows kept for foundation stock. ... In addition to the excellent records made, the herd was gradually increased in number until today it consists of more than forty head of large, strong and productive grade Hol- steins. con- and sire Minard's theria.

The War Prophets Predictions of Present War That.Have Been Partly Fulfilled Like most events of world-wide interest, the present war has not been without its prophets. In a peculiar sense it is true that "the best of prophets of the-future is the pas!.'' The war preparations throughout Europe called for none of the gifts of the seer to foretell how the race of armaments would end. Germany, whose cauldron of "hell's broth" was stirred by the Nietzsches and Bern- hardis, had no need to invoke the aid of crystal gazers and necromancers. Since the war was declared a number of prophecies have bean strikingly fulfilled- The most interesting of those is that of tho French priest of Ars, who foretold the two Prussian invasions of France. After the debacle of 1870 the second part of the priest's prophecy was remembered and published in Paris, but no one took it seriously. His prec.iction of the second invasion has been partly fulfilled: "The enemy will again return and destroy* as they come. Kffeetive resistance will not be made. They will be allowed to advance, ami after that thsir communications will be cut, and they will suffer great loss. They will retreat towards their own country. They will be followed, and few will reach their goal." Another prophecy that has come to light since the outbreak of war was | contained in "Moore's Almanac," an I annual publication that has a cotisid-j eriible vogue throughout Ireland be-j cause of its table of forecasts. In his ' "Voices of the Bta.t." for July, 1914, the author foretold that naval affairs would "come to the fore," and that France would be the scene of much unrest. His horoscope for the summer quarter forecasted "serious financial difficulties" and "heavy expenditure in military matters."���������Toronto Globe.

The Sun is the largest and best newspaper printed in the Boundary country, and the price is only one- half that of its local contemporaries. It is a valuable advertising medium because its large subscription list has been obtained, and is maintained, merely on its merits as a newspaper. It uses no indirect or questionable methods to secure sub- sccribers. It is reported that mail will soon be carried on the Kettle Valley railway. The Sun, at SI a year, is superior to any $2 a year paper printed in the Boundary.

This form of conscription, however, .is'.held in abeyance by an annual act of parliament, with the result that at the present time the United Kingdom and the United States are the only two countries that do not compel military service. In France liability for service extends from the age of twenty to forty-eight, no exception being allowed except for physical disability, although, at one time, a man with sufficient means could buy himself off or pay for a substitute. In Germany liability for military service commences at the age of seventeen and ends at the age of forty-live, but actual, service begins at twenty. The terms of service in the first line or active army is seven years, the next thirteen years being spent iu the first and second ranks of the Landwehr, and finally German soldiers pass into the Landsturm, in which they remain until they reach the age of forty-five.. Service in the Italian army or navy is also compulsory an_ duniversal, the total period being nineteen years, beginning at the age of twenty. The term of service in the ranks of the permanent army is two years for all arms. After passing through the ranks, the men are placed on unlimited leave, i.e., they are transferred to the reserve, in which they remain until they have completed a total 'of eight years' service. From tho reserve the soldier passes to the mobile militia, the term of service in which is four years. After completing his term in the mobile militia, he is "transferred to the territorial militia, in which he remains seven years, thus finishing- his military service at the age of thirty-nine. Minard's Liniment Cures Colds, etc. "Antiquity of "a Regular Shindy" Tlie antiquity of many familiar terms is surprising when it is known. Many-people are not aware that "What the dickens!'' occurs in Shakespeare, but few still will be'prepared, to hear that the phrase "a regular shindy" is found in an author's note to a poem callsd "The Popish Kingdom," published in 1570. A writer- quotes this note, which refers to tiie celebration of Maunday Thursday. '���������.Midnight services are held in church, the lights are put out and .'. regular shindy follows, men being, beaten and wounded." Most are required to salute "the flag" when they are on regular duty, stand at "attention" during the singing of the' National Anthem, to acknowledge the presence of-one of higher rank by a salute, but it is not generally known that there are other things which British soldiers in certain .parts of the world.are required to honor thus. In India, for instance, a British guard of honor presents arms to a stone tiger every day. Tho tiger is regarded by the natives as a god who drives away all danger and calamity/ and once some soldiers,'in. a spirit* of mischief, overthrew the image from its resting place, and sent it rolling into the valley below. So shocked and scandalized were the natives that a revolt seemed imminent, aud Lord Combermere, our general there, quiet- C'ite<.' the outraged natives by restoring the irar.ge to its pedestal and or- derin**; the regiment to salute it in full view of all. Since that time a British troop has kept watch over the tiger-idol day by day. Another Indian idol which is watched over by British "Tommies" is the god whose name is Kiak Kiak, equivalent to "Lord of Lords," which is supposed to he asleep for.G.OOO years, and whose awakening will be the end of* all things. Hence the natives of the city of Pegu, in Burma, are terribly afraid that someone will arouse the god; so the .British government, to avert trouble, stationed a sentry there lo prevent this catastrophe- Once a year a strange custom is observed in Cairo. A piece of carpet on which, according to tradition, Mohammed once sat, and which is carried through the streets, and the Khedive ���������and his troops all receive it in review order and salute it as they pass. The relic* is guarded most carefully at ordinary times, and the officer in charge of it .each morning must salute it with his sword raised, whilst the bugler blows three blasts before it. Another object which is honored with a salute is the secred coffin of the Prophet, Which rests at Medina, the sacred town, and which once in his life, at least, every Turkish officer must salute. He is expected to throw himself flat before the coffin, clad in his full regimentals, and is said.to receive his commission in this manner straight from the Prophet himself. In Russia, at Vladimir, there is an image of the Virgin with clothes of pure gold and invaluable gems and previous stones, which must be saluted by every soldier, whenever it is seen. Tlie honor paid to this icon is said to fo.due. to the fact that it was present v.itli thc troops when they gained a wondrous victory over a Fargo Tartar, army. The Russian authorities evidently sympathize with this act of ceremony, for they actually raised this icon to tho rank of major- general in the army, so that it is saluted by all Russian soldiers as an officer today. It might be mentioned here that in addition to "God Save the King" there are two pieces of music which all English men, soldiers and civilians, specially honor. One is the "De"ad March," and the other the "Hallelujah Chorus" from the "Messiah." It is said that when King George IV. first heard this magnificent song of praise he was so impressed by it that he rose to his feet in acknowledgment, and since that time'the custom has prevailed.���������Tit-Bits. Brothers Meet at the Front After Many- Years of Separation " We recently published an arMde describing -come extraordinary war coincidences. Here are liiree more re- markahlb cases. Twelve years ago Signaller Geoffrey Evans of the 10th Battalion Australians, left London for Australia when he was only thirteen, and gradually worked his way up until he obtained an excellent post as manager of a pearl fishing company in Broome, Western Australia, which position he threw up in order to serve his country. With tho Australian forces he went to the Dardanelles, where he took part in that wonderful landing on the shell-swept beach of the Galli- poli peninsula, and was ultimately wounded. His elder brother, Private Reginald Evans, also threw up" a good position in London on the outbreak^of war and joined the Westminster Dragoons., A few months after the two brothers, unknown to each other, were in camp side by side at Abassia, in Egypt. One day in front of Shepheard's Hotel, Cairo, the younger ''brother, who in twelve years had grown beyond recognition, slapped his elder brother on the shoulder and exclaimed, "Halloa, Reggie! How are you?" The elder brother looked .hard at the Australian and then the brothers gripped hands. ; Another- extraordinary coincidence comes from Wales. A Welshman and his wife, anxious to adopt a child, from among the Belgian refugees, journeyed from Abercynon to Swansea to make their selection. On their arrival they found that there were two-young children���������brother and sister���������who particularly appealed to them and who might be adopted, but that one could not be taken without the other. In the circumstances they decided to take both. As the children were being, undressed to be put to bed after reaching home.a* looket was discovered hanging round the little girl's neck. Inside the locket was a photograph, which the lady recognized as that of her own sister, who had gone to Belgium as a governess many years before, had married and settled down" in that country, and who now turned out to be the mother of the little refugees. She had therefore unknowingly adopted her own motherless nephew and niece. Captain E. Brhce Allnut, R.A.M.C., who is serving in the Persian Gulf, mentions another curious .coinci'deii-*s which occurred recently. To quote his own words: "The enemy started shelling the patch of ground I was on. I made for a little hole iu the ground near for shelter, and saw someone else there, but threw myself down with him, as there was just When the Jrail. of shells had round us and for a moment we put our heads up, we both said, was a close shave!' and simultaneously recognized each other. He was at Bart's with mc, ar.d we hadn't met for five years until that moment, and neither knew that the other was at the front even!"���������Tit-Bits. Canada Makes Good Ph room, burst could 'That Keep Children Well During Hot Weather Away With Depression and Melancholy.���������These two evils are the accompaniment ot a disordered stomach and torpid liver and mean wretchedness to all whom they visit. The surest ami speediest way to combat them is with Parmelee's Vegetable Pills, which will restore the healthful action of the stomach and bring* relief. They have proved their usefulness in thousands of cases and will continue to give relief to the suffering who are wise enough to use them- nonrenal Growth of the Dominion in Past Few Years Ia 1911 Canada had almost 500,000 more men than women. The war will consume a great part of this surplus. There is evidence, however, that Canada will deal more and more liberally with homesteaders in tho future, and this should bring in sturdy workers to help make up the loss. Annually she has allotted to settlers from five to seven million acres of free land, but today the premier of Saskatchewan wauls to see immigrants not only as" signed to free lands but equipped with seeds, farm implements, and good advice. It will not be surprising if Canada nralces, -too, a determined essay to keep her sons and daughters at home, to make the most of her great resources, and repair, as rapidly as may be. her -share ot thc loss brought upon civilization by the war of tlie kaisers. It is hard hoeing for Carrada just now. War contracts worth $156,- OOu.OOn - have already been placed iu Canada, however, and these should hein to strat again the How of Canadian prosperity. According to trie Kingston iOnt.'������ British Whig, "Can-- ada has borrowed capital for municipal and industrial enterprises to such au extent that the annual tax in interest alone is about $1-1.000*000. Too much attention has been given to civic life aud all that it implies, and not enough attention to farm life." Of The Remington Arms Plants Not For Sale of Manager Says That No Amount Money Would Induce Owners to Dispose of- Plants During the last few days there havo been very persistent rumors to the effect that Germany was seeking to purchase American ammunition making plants, not so much on account of any shortage of ammunition for its own armies as with a view to putting an end to the tremendous shipments which are going forward to the allies. The Remington Arms-Union Metallic Cartridge Company and the Bethlehem Steel Company have both, beea specifically named as objecti'/a point** of (he German efforts. But it now appears that there is not the slightest chance of Germany securing a dollar's worth of interest ia either of these two great concerns. Mr. Samuel P. Pryor, vice-president and general manager of tho Remington Arms-Union "Metallic Cartridge Company, was seen' in regard to tlie persistent rumors that have lately been in circulation, to the effect that offers made by a foreign government for the purchase of the properties of that company were under consideration, and that tho'additions to the Jl- iou and Bridgeport plants, which are under construction, are intended to ba merely temporary ami made only for the performance of special contracts laie some towns have been obliged to j entered into and are not intended for ask for time to moer interest due on To have the children sound and healthy is thc first care of a mother.

Hatoairtst a J /A \"<3 " THE SUN, GKAKD FOKKS, B. C \Ufl WORKING FOR DEVELOPMENT OF THE COMMUNITY Every Farming District Should Have Some Kind of an Organization or Club, where Farmers can get Together lo Discuss the Many Problems which Confront Them It is profitable to run a well-organized farm, and still more .'profitable to run it in a community which Is following the same general lines of farming- The farmer, must become better acquainted with his fellow- farmer. In order to do-this he needs some sort of an orgazination or club la. which he can discuss' with his brother, farmers the problems which ���������confront each of them. He must not considet his time wasted' when he spends it in association with those who are in the same line of work as himself. Me -may not get wages in dollars' and cents for the/time he puts in at the club, tut the understanding of the problems of his lellow-farm*r ���������which will come to him through this association will be indirectly very valuable? The form of.organization is really immaterial, but it should be one in which the women and children have a \place; for farmers and their wives have, always worked together more p'erhaps than men and women.have in any other occupation. There is no question but that ��������� the efficiency of ������������������-*: the average country Bcho'ol is too low. If the farmers will get together and* look upon the school from the standpoint of making the sehool"what it ought to be, they will make changes which, will lead to the improvement of the work done * in the school, as well as lessen the expense per pupil. ' It is not the purpose of this article to outline a definite plan for a~chaiige in our school system, but the farmer should- get ready to listen to plans of. this kind. There is not a better, place than at ���������a. meeting of his '.club,' where there will be free discussion and every effort made to get at the,facts. The farmers' club "can be used as a means of entertainment and as "a means of makin ; country life more agreeable to the young people, and thus keep those on the farm who should stay there- The tendency of farmers to move from place to place can be overcome to a large extent by having a real live farmers' organization in the community to overcome discontent. "Far-away pastures always look green" is an old saying in which there is a good deal of truth. It should be the definite purpose of every farmers' club to make the -home pastures look green. . Then: there is another subject in which farmers have a/real live interest, and that is the subject of roads. Whether they are good, bad or indifferent, he is interested in ���������them' because there ��������� is no citizen who uses tne roads mora than he. The farmer should realize that ���������-the '"���������inkling.'of. .roads is in a transitory state. Even with our latest road laws,' it* can hardly be said that we lave taken up a definite system of road building. Future laws on road making should be uiscussed by the farmer in his club. Perhaps the greatest effect of the organization of a farmers' club is the effect on the farmer himself, tlie individual man. The farmer needs the training in parliamentary law that he" will get in a good farmers' club- He needy to rub up against his fellow-farrner. He needs to learn that farming today ia not the same as it was thirty years ago. The farmer, has always been a. good hand at putting on brakes, but the time has come when he should take the initiative and do something to build up his community in place of hindering some one else from doing anything. ���������' There is nothing equal to ^ regular organization to help a man boost for his community. He can and should join his farmers" club, and then work for the development of his community and make it the best community in the state.���������Montreal Famih* Herald. ' Mental Equipment Blind Boy Who Made Good Technical Knowledge is Essential to the. Successful Farmer It there is any one thing that, the average '.man moving to a new-district does really believe, it is that success lies in the country and not:in.himself- If there is any one thing that he does not believe in, it is in his own mental equipment for the task that lies before him. The great mass of farmers, whether we find them in a new oi* old country, do not as yet value very much, the making and finishing of the farmer himself. A . farm boy and his father would never think of taking hold of a trade or profession without some years of mental and practical preparation. Any fanner would laugh at us if we- advocated the putting of boys into the practice of law or medicine or of a trade, without a course of special training for the work that lies ahea; of him. "That's brain work," they will say. But farmin_ isn't brain work? "'.'No, no." Go to any of our agricultural colleges and see thc amount of brain .work that is required to understand so common a thing as the soil. Note the btrtlay of chemistry and the study of soil physics that is" required. Then remember that no man can rightly understand the soil and its action in growing plants without some knowledge of chemistry, and tiie more the better. From chemists, and men who study the soil from that standpoint, has come all the improved knowledge we have as to fertilize:*:; and soil regeneration- That is brain work of .". mighty high order. Wouldn't it help a young farmer greatly if he knew how to analyze his' soil? The chemist knows, and he 'freely tells the farmer what he knows. Blindness on AH Tbe Heavy Handicap of Only Made.

Here when I'm hungry I have a good meal to go to and when Tin tired there is a nice clean bed waiting. You know how I hated to break from the city, but now Mary and I are both glad we came. You should see her .with her skirt tucked up, bustling to and from the barns. It's the- pastoral life for. us.

THE GHOST OF 1870 HAS BEEN LAID IN FRANCE The Whole French Nation is now Confident of Ultimate Victory Having a Sublime Faith in General Joffre and in the Brave Army that Gallantly Stemmed thc German Invasion Tiie great doubt has been lifted from the heart of France. The accomplishment of this was the grandest deed of French arms in all the year of Armageddon which began a year ago In history the feat will be known as the victory of the Battle of the Marne. Not only did this victory probably decide the fate of France geographically, but its influence iron the spirit of the country was, and still is, incalculable. For .^notwithstanding thi "'solidarity" accomplished instantly and spontaneously on August 1, the iay tne general mobilization order was posted, a great doubt weighed like lead on the hearts of those'who marched away singing as well as those who stayed behind and wept. Everybody 'remembered.'1870.' The old Franco-Prussian war and the horrible nightmare of blunders. The young had heard the story .time and again. The French, in 1S70, were totally unprepared for war, were badly equipped and badly led. Their plans lacked cohesion. Generals fought independently one of the other. Treason was laid at the door of one and altogether it was a terrible mess in which the poor soldiers never had the slightest chance notwithstanding a courage which wrung from even the Prussians the exclamation; "Oh, w-hat brave fellows!" ' So,when the soldiers started for the war, each one bore in his heart a burden heavier than the knapsack on his back: Would history repeat itself? Would 1914 be another 1S70? Was' France better prepared this time? Would she be better Were her generals equal to the task ahead? If not, then * * They dare not let their minds run beyond this point. Individually the most intelligent soldiers in the world, they have the other curse and blessing of civilization, an imagination, so they sang and quit thinking: they joked with one another, never admitting even to themselves���������let alone to their comrades���������that the doubt was- there- Back home thc hearts of mothers, fathers, wives, sisters.ana sweethearts were troubled by the same unexpressed dread lest 1914' prove another 1870. And if such should prove to be the case * * * ���������. They, too, smiled and talked cheerfully; of a new and irresistible;France. All knew*, those who remained waiting as well as those who went to'war. that for forty-four years Germany had been living, eating, sleeping, drinking, dreaming war, and that this war had reti? great ��������� * come. What about France? Who was General J off re? Who were the otirer generals? Newspapers .had'but recently declared that France was unprepared. Was this true? And all went on being troubled in secret lent 1'ranee sho.iilu agr.in prove unready. After vague news reached Paris that General Joffre was in retreat from Charleroi, the 1870 bugaboo loomed bigger and bigger. Maugeuge was invested, Lille was occupied. Then there came silent, tense days, without any real news. The government moved to Bordeaux, the Germans were now in Maubeuge, Com- piegne, Soissons, Rhcims, Chalons, Epeniay, Luneville, Verdun and 'Nancy .were seriously menaced. Paris, it seemed, -was doomed and Uhlans were reported to be at the gates- Tho worst fears of soldiers and homefolks seemed realized; it looked like, another 1870, only worse. Still there was no panic. There was the exodus of thousands of people who objected to living in Paris during a German occupation, but the city was calm. France's "sacred union" was firm. But the doubt, instilled into tho mind of France by 1S70, was there, galling and real. The people could not know that General Joffre was later to be called a genius. They could only wonder if his retreat was strategy, or incompetency. The consorship 'was strict and they Lad few facts to base opinion on. They did not know the battle of the Marne was being fought, nor that Joffre had performed, by winning a victory there, a sort of eighth wonder of the world. Yet this was true. General Bonnal said of this battle: "This is the first time to my knowledge that a great*army, retreating a'n-1 fighting at thc same time, and for eight days in succes-yon.'was able to furnish the effort by itself to transform instantly its long and painful retreat into an irresistible offensive." Vet that is what the French army was able to do. Through his victory a new France was born. The great doubt aws lifted, the 1870 bugaboo "banished. The people were given con- i'^'trce in the army, the army in itself. Henceforth, whatever may happen to the Frt-'ich soldier, he will refuse to be discouraged. Pie can advance, retreat or doggedly, hold what he has won, any. or all, with tenacity and good cheer. He has faith in his officers and .aitb in himself. He knows the war may be long, but he grins and grits his teeth: "We'll get 'em at last!" he says. The ghost of 1S70 has been laid. Successful Woman Farmer! Dairy Test, at Brandon A CI cr Missouri Woman Wins Fame ac a Farmer Missouri's first woman 'to become a professional farmer has blazed the way for hundreds of her sex. Her example has been followed by so many other women they are now organized under the title of the Missouri Women Farmers' club. Miss F. Penrle Mitchell of Rochcport, president, is the first professional woman farmer in the state. Born on a 320-acre farm in Boone county, she grew i.p to love the soil and took a keen interest in her father's work. Later the farm became hers by inheritance and for seventeen years she has owned and managed it. First she made a scientific study of soils, grains and animal husbandry- She is frequently called the "Hog Woman of Missouri," because of the large number of hogs she marketed. In addition to her farm interests, Miss Mitchell is interested in every form of woman's activities.

The oats furnish tho "strength"-and the timothy furnishes the hulk. Alfalfa is a feed really "stronger" than oats, and when wo use it in place of timothy wc are just doubling tho strength of our feed. The feed is made so "strong" that tha animal is unable to utilize it entirely and the portions not utilized must b������ worked off by tbe kidneys in large in c.'ts ore.
