Grouse Shooting Opens Sept. 15 Deputy Game Warden Callander on Monday received a copy of the neoessary order-in-eounoil respecting game regulations for 1915, and we are indebted to him for a tabloid statement of the open seasons for this district. Here they are: Deer, of all kinds will be open from September 1 till December 15. Four deer may bs taken but not more than throo of any one species, all of which muist bo over one year of ago.

As this their first stop it is reasonable to suppose the party will spend at least half-a day here to inspect some of the orchards and gardens, learn how the packing is done, and such other details a6 may be of interest. To enable them to see all there is to see it will be necessary to arrange for their transportation to all points in the Valley and for such other entertainment features as their stay here will permit. Committees will bo re.- vuired to work out these details and sfte to it that any programme arranged is carried out. As this visit is one mainly in the interest of the ranchers the Fruit Growers Union or Farmers Institute officials should bo in charge of arrangments to entertain the visitors backed up by tho board of trade and citizens generally. While October 2 is still five weeks away its not a bit too early to be discussing tentativepiognnimes for the reception, so that whï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½'n the itinerary of the visitors is definitely available no time way bo lost in completing overy arrangement to ensure the reception features going through without a ulip.

They are a specially good apple to have, A being good keepers and great favorites with buyers. Mr rLyne was emphatic in declaring the Valley to be. specially adapted for profitable pear culture. Nowhere in the province, he assured The Review- could better soil and climatic conditions be found for growing Bartletts,' Flemish Beauty, Clapp's Favorite, etc. The clay loam soil so noticeable here was a prime essential for pear growing while this same soil feature was also a great factor in the production of plums. * Discussing the prevalanco of fruit pests Mr.Lyne remarked that 1015 had been a normal year with the possible exception of aphis which was moro noticeable this year than formerly. After a visit over most of the province ho estimated this year's crop as approximately 12 per cent, lighter than 101 _. The decrease in No. l's would show a heavier falling off than this, particularly in theNorfchern Okanagan whoro scab was specially prevaldnt.

Some places we have been in we could crawl out behind the trenches and get a few cherries if a fellow wanted to take a chance, and I am quite fond of fruit. '"'.;"'"' In a little place I am sitting now, I can look out and see three houses that were once in a beautiful place, and had been fine big brick places such as you see in the largest towns in Canada. There is nothing left of them now but one brick wall of one. tho stone door sill of another, and a bunch of-.shade trees around a pile of bricks in the last one. I huve seen largo towns in tho same condition as these houses. Shrapnel has started to burst right ovor us and some of the bullets came right down at our feet. They might be good souvenirs if we had thorn in Canada. We sec a good many of them overy day. The German shells do some good for we would have to go without a wash for a few days if it wasn't for the Jack JohiiRon hole about twenty feetTfway from us.

Canada's Shell Production approached the government with a proposition to the effect that they would furnish a gasoline road motor and a man to drive it if the government would supply a weed inspector to travel on this road motor along their lines to look out for noxious weeds. Noxious weed seeds aro very frequently carried in cars from one point to another aud dropped about stations aud in front ot* elevators, and from these points of vantage they spread to the surrounding districts. The railway company further assured the government that every section foreman and his gang would be at the disposal of the weed inspector, not ouiy for the destruction of tu_ weeds found on each trip, but also under his direction would keep a sharper lookout for a recurrence of these weeds auywhers along the company's lines of rail. The work has been going forward for some time, with splendid results, and the department of agriculture and particularly Chief Weed Commissioner Thompson, are very enthusiastic about this method of .getting after the weeds. Quite a number of small patches of sow thistle, for example, have been found in stations when none can be located in any- of the fields near the station, aud by destrue- day. ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½TT nPI___ C-l-%_-_ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½-_-,s_'_*9__ ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½].<r_ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½_-_*_ there were somo 'by whom, whether ISat. >SliIFHfc5F Q J? t%VC through dullness or indifference, the Lord Rosebery on Bitter Account of Days to Come call of patriotism has been so far dis regarded and privatp interest held of greater moment than tbe public weal."

They must have cooking conveniences, for one thing; and there is always more or ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ ss danger when several people are using the stove that accidents may happen. For that reason alone, the all-steel car comes in handy, as there is absolutely nothing to burn.

The fire stoves are fixed to steel frames. Every detail has been carefully tlioughout.

I have seen many others walking about in civilian costumes who would be infinitely improved both physically and morally if they were in khaki. I do not presume to judge any man, whether he be old or young. The man who does not realize that if he is not helping the state in some way at this moment is falling criminally short of his duty.

In Ottawa, for instance, there has been brisk recruiting for the overseas forces, but-hundreds of youhj men of military age and physical fitness are still going about their regular occupations and sports .vithout even attempting to prepare themselves for the emergencies of tha future. The least they might do is take advantage of the opportunities being afforded for securing some military training, so that if the call is more insistent later on they will be in a position to answer. The reason for the apparent apathy on the part of these young men is perhaps that they have failed to realize the seriousness of the war with respect to Canada. The fighting in Europe seems a long way from this country. Yet there is little excuse for such lack of understanding. The fate of Canada would be too cruel to contemplate should the Teuton barbarians gain the mastery in this war. It is only by men and munitions that the Germans can be defeated and Britain and the world saved from a calamity such as has never before threatened, and Canada has hundreds of thousands of men who have not yet prepared to do their bit. Even though they may not be wanted yet, they will be doing a service if they prepare for the time when they may be wanted-ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ Ottawa Free Press. ^Should be Used as an Adjunct Only ; to best System o'f Maintaining Fertility .. Tliere is a great tendency where the use of fertilizers is begun tp continue their use year after year "on the same land without adopting other means of maintaining productiveness.. A. man finds that fertilizer will bring a good return and he will keep using it year after year without crop rotation, growing one grain crop after another. Such a use of fertilizers is disastrous if continued, because under * such a system the humus is rapidly exhausted in the soil, with the result that the soil becomes compact, loses its friable condition,, and the yields decrease in spite of the, fertilizer. Fertilizers alone will not maintain soil fertility. They should be used rather as an adjunct to the %best systems of maintaining fertility than can be practised. Used in this way thera will be no injury.to the soil, and if intelligently applied there will be very good profits. ~~ The only man -*ho can afford to use fertilizers on grain crops year after year on the same land is the rent- .er or temporary farmer who cares nothing for the future of the soil. To be sure, it requires a number of years of such continued use before, the effects become **_-parent, and it may be justifiable for a man who is just beginning, and who must meet his payments on the land, to practice such a system for a few years, but it should not be continued long. The only proper use of commercial fertilizers is in connection with the best system of crop rotation, of legume growing and of humus building that a man can practice. _>r_in /-imputation BABY'S GREAT DANGER DURING HOT WEATHER Canadian Made Goods ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ ***********, Granulated Eyditte, Kyr* inflauitd by expo. ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ui- to Sun, UwsUnd WluiS Valve iirj'ubei l sc.

German eft'iciency, and finds it worthless except in a very limited extent. He denounces the German system of education, and says that the people ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ Germany are ignorant of political freedom' as Anglo-Saxon countries kBOW it. He reviews the great discoveries and inventions of the past hundred years, and "finds that Germany has contributed little toward them. She has produced no Darwin, no Pasteur, no Cavour. She has not created much more th^in the Japanese, but like the Japanese, she has proved to have marvellous gifts as an adapter of great ideas born in other countries- With the opinion of a noted German statesman that the Germans are "political asses" he heartily agrees. It was their ignorance upon this point that explains the numerous mistakes they made when calculating upon^the effect of the war upon Great Br_Kiin. Nor. is it the ignorance of the German masses he considers but the ignorance of their leaders. They had all the facts before them, but they could not make the deductions. They did not know how free people value the sanctity of a contract. "Nothing could be franker," he writes, "than the original explanation which the German chancellor gave of the breaking of treaties concerning the neutrality of Belgium; but his frankness is evidence that he did not understand in the least the freeman's idea of the sanctity of contractï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½the foundation of all public law and Hsa**-e in a free country. **_. a country despotically or aristocratically ruled thero is no such condition of, public opinion." As regards German T7*!!/}ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ writes!* "It is an efficiency which takes hold of every child in Germany at birth and follows every youth and every i English, and we remember in that con- man and woman through life until j nection -with satisfaction that many of us are of English extraction." He says is not made by the child, but for him. German efficiency, however, is a very real and formidable thing in all the competitions of the civilized world; so that the most interesting' thing to be studied as to the probable outcome of the European war in thisï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½is Germany with its autocracy mora efficient or less efficient than J. ranee and England with their liberties?

He denies .that this wonderful efficiency-hasv produced anything to compare with' what has been produced in liberty-loving nations. Efficiency has produced an efficient Germany. It has produced nothing for the world at large. He finds that Britain, the United Stat.s, Franc-d and Italy have produced nearly all of the great ideas and the great inventions in the past hundred years. In fact, Germany did" not invent much more than Turkey- He considers it to be a remarkable fact that systematic education of the whole people has been carried on for one hundred years in Germany, while the free nations have been withou. this system. Nevertheless, despite this system, Germany is a political ignoramus. He believes that the reason is that the German system has not enough freedom in it. The German educational system and all German efficiency might be likened to the complete apparatus of the telegraph, lacking only the electric current. A few days ago Dr. Eliot expressed the opinion that prayers for peace would not be answered, and that those outside of Germany who uttered then- were traitors to the great ideals for which the allies are fighting. In his book he says that he does not believe there will be any peace until Germany is utterly smashed.

This witness, who' belongs to the civil population of a locality invaded by the Teuton-hordes, has just told me that a German major confided to him that he no longer expected victory for the kaiser's armies after seeing in the sky a star with the colors of the F. ench flag, whereas in 1870 a sword was seen, and he added that this was not an optical illusion,, as others besides himself had seen the same thing! Really one would think we were still in the Fifteenth Century. In 1466 when Halley's famous comet spread its Ions and brilliant tail above the terrified armies of Mahomet II. and Pope Cali- xtus III. the Mussulman soldiers thought they saw in it a cross and the Christian soldiers thought thev saw in it a yataghan. , It is true that since the war began curious coincidences, have favored certain legends, riot only in Germany, but in all countries. The announcement of the eclipsa of the sun, which took place on August 21, aroused lively apprehension among the Russian peasants inhabiting the zone of totality, who already at the beginning of July considered, this astronomical phenomenon as a sign of war. On the other hand, at the moment when the allies were saving Paris from the defilement which the troops of Von Kluck threatened to bring ;up- on it in the early part of September, a pretty comet shone in the heavens at ,n;ght, every evening more beautiful and more brilliant. At once the populace, whose attention it attracted, associated it with the battles and it received the name of the_,"war comet!" Nevertheless this; ethereal voyager already had wandered in our skies for a year, having been discovered on December 17, 1913, by the astronomer Delavan^at the observatory of La Plata. But its visibility to the naked eye at the seat of war caused an imaginary role to be attributed to it. Then there was the passage- of Mer- a Ba.sasa_ s i-JL_hfX__,*B_f&l B_tS BSEd.

He said: "I think we started badly; we were certainly not as well prepared as Germany. I do not know that anybody can rightly be blamed for that state of things. We have done very well considering, and I am inclined to (key that as regards that part of the work ia which I have been able to render the authorities some help, this country' will very goon-bf- on an equality with our foes. - There i_ no need for anxiety, certainly no need for panic. "It looks as if it will be a long war, but the longer it lasts the stronger will be the power of the allies. We must simply set ourselves to wear out the Germans. To do that we have only to press steadily and quietly forward on our road. ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ "We have not got to take cities and execute wonderful marches. All we have to do is to go on with our absolute and unquestionable duty of thinning the enemy. We must stay long: we must sap him; we must weaken him at every point; we must destroy him by inches. After that we can enter his country and do what we like with it. "A great tiling for men to convince themselves of is that this war will be won not by fury of attack and not by gallantry, but simply by hanging on. He who hangs on longest will win, and a man need not think very profoundly to assure himself that, whereas we can hang on almost indefinitely, the Germans cannot. Every day might be called a victory for th . allies. Time fights for us." Asked his opinion on the employment of asphyxiating gas, Sir William said: "On. the whole.

They will win through it greater liberties than they might have exnected from a century of peace.

A German Romance Cong Trip of Germr.n Submarines is a Myth A recent story, much featured in Berlin, has described the trip of German submarines from Wilhelmsliaven to Constantinople, via Gibraltar Straits. This is said by -the British naval authorities to bo an invention. A British naval officer is quoted in the New. York Times as saying: "That story was given out because tho German government wished to impress the United States with the idea that.its submarines could easily cross the Atlantic and destroy shipping on this side in the event of a war between the two countries. Tho Germans have established a submarine base and factory on the Bosphorous near Constantinople, and aro turning them out there in tho same manner as they have boon doing at Zecbruggj, in the North Sea. Tho parts for tho submarines aro manufactured in Germany and Hont by rail to Constantinople, through Austria, Houmania and Bulgaria.

Indeea, he is inclined tb doubt whether he was aware in himself of any physical inhibition for more years than this- "I feel," he said, "very much as 1 felt when 35 years old." Begbie adds: "We were speaking of eyesight and.he showed me a miniature dictionr.ry, the pages, of which wera perhaps the breadth of a six pence. I could distinguish hot a single letter, not even the capitals r.t the top. I put on glasses, but the words were still a. mist.

Dominion Government is to Appoint a Commission A royal commission is to be appointed by the government to investigate the question of increased agricultural production in the Dominion, together with rue related questions of wider markets, further employment for th. unemployod, etc. The commission, which is to bo appointed at the recommendation of the prime minister, and in response to a request made by the Congress of Mayors which visited the capital some wcehs ago, will bo auth- orl_cd to employ such scientilic and professional assistance as its members may determine. Its duration shall bo during pleasure, and it will make interim reports from time to timo. A minute of council has been issued outlining the reasons for the appointment of the commission and the questions which it in to consider. In connection with opportunities for increased agricultural production, lho following considerations aro advanced: (1) Improved methods of production with a view to a better return to tho producer; (2) assisting this purpose by proper instruction and demonstration; (il). increasing the aero- age under production; (.) attracting monstratlon of a typo which would aid in increasing a largo and permanent agricultural population; (3) -UnniluL- ing and encouraging co-operation among tlio producer; (G) providing cold storago and abattoir facilities.

How to Intersst Pupils in the Care of the Gardens Many teachers find it very bard to have the work carried oriV in the school garden during the holidays. When they arrive back at their school in September the lot is usually a mass of weeds. The Agricultural Gazette, in offering some suggestions, states: "All work should be done in due season, so that at vacation time the plants will be well advanced, entirel** free from weeds, thinned out when necessary and properly cultivated. An interest may thus be created that, if only directed wisely, will remain in the minds of most pupils, who will solve the 'weed problem' -during vacation . "Many children regularly VI_.it their plots during the vacation and keep them in condition. Some are driven by their parents, who also become interested, and at thoir regular visits to the village store or postoffice, make trips to the school plots as well. "Trustees of many schools meet on Saturday afternoons and round up the village children to accompany them to the school grounds and perform tho necessary weeding, etc. Tlio children's plots (of many of these schools), furnish sufficient flowers for tho Sunday servicps throughout the summer. "A janitor of a village school, who Is generally hired by tho yoar and employs hio tlmo during vacation in cleaning and ropniring tho school, should be interested In the grounds as well and act as a leader of tho children. In somo schools committees aro appointed for each week of tho vacation, nnd each committee In turn is held responsible. This plan works well in town schools, where many children go camping for part of the time." Veiled Women of Turkey See Their Freedom Ahead When the allied fleets began bombarding the'forts of the Dardanelles the sad-eyed, silent women of Turkey smiled behind their veils;ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½for they saw liberty ahead. To the hidden women of the harem the overthrow of the country will mean to a great extent freedom from customs, centuries old, that have made slaves of them. They hope that the degrading life of the harems will be done away with ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½that the;- will be allowed to become something more than the playthings of men and the bearers of children. Since 190S a sullen spirit of rebellion has been growing stronger than .ever before among 'Jurkish women 'Protests that in these modern times theyshould have to submit to such degradation have been whispered in the closely-guarded women's quarters of thousands of Turkish homes. For a while after the downfall of V..2 old sultan, Abdul Hamid, their hopes ran high, for then they were allowed to discard their veils and go out in the streets with their husbands and brothers. This good fortune lasted but a short time, then the constitution was revised, and although a disputation of women waited on tho ministers of the capital, the latter would not give official sanction to their discarding the veil. Since then a little progress has been made, but the majority are still slaves. In some cases the bars arc gilded, but neverthelss they are prisoners. Until the timo she Is 12 years old a Turkish girl enjoys much the same freedom ub her llttlo sisters the world over. She can romp and play and go to parties, but on hor 12th birthday she becomes a woman, donï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ a veil and from then on is a prlosnor of tho harem. She must spend her time in clo_ely- gtiarded rooms, smoking, reading, drinking coffee and gossiping. Here aro somo of tho things sho cannot do: Go out of doors unless heavily veiled and guarded by male slaves of her father or husband. Go to tho theatre or restaurants. Sco tho man picked to bo her husband until after sho is married to hiin. Play outdoor games or indulge in outdoor exercise of any kind. ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ Write or receive lottors without her husband seeing them. Use fur or any other kind of trimming on street garments. Lock the doors ot her own room. She is n?ver- safe from the prvlcg eyes of male salves. While-Turkish girls are usually _sade to marry after they are 12 years old, some are forced into marriage at an. earlier age.

In the introduction it is stated that cut-worms as a class rank in importance with such well-known pests as the San Jose Scale, the Codling Moth and the Hessian Fiy, ail or which are among our most destructive insect enemies. There are certainly few insects whicli, year after year, inflict such widespread damage as tho various caterpillars, known commonly as cut-worms. The annual loss occasioned by these insects in Canada arnovuit- to hundreds of thousands ot dollars. In the bulletin the methods, of controlling cut-worms are discuf*. sed fully. Under "Preventive Measures" the value of clean cultivation is referred to, as well aa the placing of bands of tin or paper around' plants which are set out. "Remedial Meas- surcs" include descriptions of various poisoned baits to destroy the cutworms, directions for tho making of proper furrows or ditches to prevent the advance of armies or cut-worms, etc. Fifteen common kinds of cutworms are described iti popular detail and much information glv.en on tho habits and life-history of tho various specie-. Tho bulloLiu Is fully iiiustrateu, tho figures bolng clear and well chosen. Altogether thoro aro 20 illustrations of cut-worms, cut-worm moths, injury to plants, etc.^Copies of this new publication may be had froo of charge on application to tho chief of tho Publication Branch, Department of Agriculturo, Ottawa. Inquiries regarding these insects, or other kinds should bo found to bo Injuring crops, should be addrensed to the Entomologist, Department of Agriculture Ottawa.

CRESTON, B.C., FRIDAY, AUG. 20 l*_r_.ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½- The appended article dealing with the pamphlet "The Crisis in B.C.," should make interesting reading for all our citizens. It is from Toronto Saturday Night, without doubt Canada's foremost independent, weeklyï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½a paper with a reputation for telling the truth, the whole truth and nothiug but the truth, aeoording to its Here's what it says: The amazing corruption of British Colutbia's public men, whose acts are slowly but surely strangling to death that magnificent province, are briefly told in a pamphlet which has just been issued, entitled "The Crisis in B.C. An Appeal for Investigation." The j do_a__._rst has been prepared by an expert, a .trained accountant aad statistician, under the supervision of a committee of citizens, all members of the Ministerial Union of the Lower Mainland. As pointed out*, the facts set forth are in no sense published iu a partisan spirit, nor to serve the pin- poses of any political party. However public matters have reached -such a state in British Coumbia.'that these gentlemen, as citizens, feel that tb. re must be a remedy sought, aud it is hoped that the uncovering of tiie wh< >!e wretched history of looting and corruption will bring about at least a partial cure. *The fact is that parcticaiiy aj! of British Columbia's natural wealth, ber tiruber, her coal fields, her farm lands, have, through connivance of public officials, been alienated to syndicates; with headquarters in nearly every capital in Europe and the large cities of the United States. Further than that, there has been falsification of publit accounts; false statements by public officials, members of the governmentï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½in an encSeaver to cover up thier crooked trails. With the connivance of Ministers nf thy Crown, the land laws of the Province have been subverted in order, that these land speculators could get away with their booty. As the Land Act originally stood, the sale of more than 64*0 aci-es of Crown lands to any one person uu- til the first purchase had been cultivated or smpx-ov. d to the extent of $3 per acre, was illegal. This was inconvenient for the would-be land grabber, so in 1007 the McBride Government introduced an amendment whereby one -man could stake tens of thousands of acres in the names of others who had never seen it, and who quite possibly were never in that Province in thier ' lives. This is the secret of having nearly all of what, under an honest administration, would have been land available for the settler, now in the hands of syndicates located in Berlin, London, Paris, New York, Portland, Spokane, San Francisco. The records or the land offices in British Columbia are filled with "dummy" names, ho that it is next to impossible to identify the real owners. The exploitation of coal binds has been on a par with that of the farm lands already described. In what is known as the "Groundhog District," which contains the best coal in . the Province, six firms or syndicates have grabbed off 321,000 acres. Of course the properties are not being worked by fche present owners. The land was obtained from the Government for a song in order that it might be turned over at a huge profit later on. In regard to timber it is the same ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ story. The report goes on to state that eighty per cent, or more than 11,250,- 000 acres, of the finest timber in the Province has been alienated from tho Crown, leaving the Government:-!,750,- 000 acres of the dregs. Theni* timber licenses are held by trusts, syndicates and other exploiters in thit United States and elsewhere- Copies of doeu- inciiti- are given in the puuiphlet, showing' that Governieiiit official- were sharing in the plunder on the sale of timber limits, and further, there is evidence of false returns in respect to the sale of limits in order I hut the Government might not present such a ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½orry appearance before the electorate. The latter pari of the pamphlet in taken up with tho details of a deliberate suppression of facts in roNpeet to the finances of tho Province, after which the railway situation is gone into iu detail. It is shown that on three railways alone the Province of British Columbia is down for a, guarn- tec uu Ui principal and interest to the tune of nearly a hundred million dol- lurs, or any $250 por head of population, and Ut quote, the p-imphfct: ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½'Nothing in more morally certain ihuu the people oi' thin Province will have to pay the intereul on this huge iudcbtedneHH, as ii. has ulwayH had to do in other cases for the past twelve ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½year*;."

If ever a country needed a new birth politically it is Canada's beauti- Paciflc Province. Its natural resources far exceed those of any other section of Canada, but it has been debauched, violated and defiled beyond the limit of endurance, and if it is to "come back" there must be a new deck and a new deal. Coming from such a source the article can hardly fail to arouse thinking Conservative leaders to the fact that an unprejudiced public is inclined to take some stock in "'The Crisis," and that unless the charges therein contained are refuted in the same slashing fashion in which they are made something similar to what happened in Manitoba may overtake the McBride government oil its not-distant appeal to the people. Recently Attorney-General Bowser spoke in Vancouver in reply to "The Crisis." According even to the more moderate Conservative dailies he put up a very able defense of the government's connection with the 'deals' and other matters contained in the parsons' pamphlet. A few thousand copies of his speech, with such other information as may be necessary to fully explain all the alleg.nl wrongdoing would help some. Without something of the sort Conservatives are badly handicapped in any discussion of this widely-circulated leaflet. ,&8tlbr 'Darhr& W ':ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½( ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½._y .:_> ,- ,||>OII lilt' ,,,- ..... ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½, 1 * While it were idle to attempt to minimize the moral value of the successes ehe Germans are gaining in Russia at the present time, if their losses in men are anywhere near in proportion to those suffered by the other nations, who are fighting more or less on the defensive, it is possible the cost of victory may be so great that defeats such as Russia is experiencing, may be almost preferable. According to the British casualty lists in fourteen weeks, April, May, June and part of July, on a 40-mile front there was a loss of 182,512 men, or 13,000 a week. In the eastern theatre of the war the Germans have been operating: on a 900- mile front with five distincTa. mies. They have been attacking all the time. For the sake of argument the five armies may each be apportioned a front of 100 miles which leaves about 400 miles of the eastern front on which it may not ho possible to deploy troops. Supposing the Germans on a 500-mile front only lost 10,000 men a week to each 40 miles instead of 13,000 as the British did, they would have been losing men at the rate of 120,000 men a wook since iho beginning of May, or in tlio last fifteen weeks they would have lest on the eastern front alone no less than 1,800,000 mon without gaining their main objective. If such figures aro nt all correct no wonder the A'.lies are content to wait while the Germans exhaust their resources in driving back the Russians.- The further tho latter aro driven back at such a colossal cost tho hotter it is for tlio Allies. Tho Gentians can not replace these men while if Russia loses a like number she can roplaoo them with ease.

You are in grave peril." returned I with the utmost seriousness. -What peril?"' Tliere was a note of alarm in her voice in spile of her effort to be indif- ferei-.- 1 seized upon its promise eagerly -The men of the shipï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½they are uot what they should be.

The men are devoted to ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ me andï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½" "For God's sake, Mistress l>uey," I cried, but this time she was gone. 1 heard the door of her cabin shut violently- There was no help for it. Well, I must devise some way unaided, for I must get out for her sake. The cabin was lighted by an air port closed by a deadeye. I measured it, drawback the thick glass and examined the opening, although I knew it was a fu- iiie proposition. A slender boy might have slipped through, but not a man such as I. My mighty thews and sinews and great bulk required a door, anu no small one either. -The wind had ceased blowing hard outside, and some spray came in through the port as the waves slapped the side of the ship. I closed and secured it. There was nothing to be gain- - ed there. I must seek some other way. I was not weaponless. Nobody had thought to search the cabin, and a brace of pistols which I always kept loaded and ready for an emergency were locked securely in my chest. My hanger hung at the side of my berth. The door was a strong one. It was locked and barred without. 1 might have broken it down; I could have done so if I had had space enough in which to run and hurl myself against it. I^might even have kicked it to pieces with my heavy seaman's boots. Certainly I could easily have blown the lock oft with my pistol, but any of these endeavors would have roused the ship- I had one other hope. It Captain Matthews should come to the cabin I would appeal to him For the rest I determined not to sleep that night. Some strange foreboding possessed me. We were near the latitude and longitude of the island we were seeking. If, indeed, there wore such an island as was thought to be, and it wouJd be a good time for an outbreak, especially since I was removed. Would :t come that night? Would it come nt all? Was 1 mistaken in the men? I have often wondered why women wore made, and since they wore mado. why men should he such fools about them. Here I was helpless just because I had snatched a kiss from one. And now that I nni in the mood for confession, I might as well say that I fully rejoiced in flint klfis- Well, whatever happened, I had tlio memory of that. kiss. She would never forgive mo.

There did not seem to be any especial danger in tho weather, and for that I was thankful. I must have dozed. I was awakened by the last echoing of the bell forward. I didn't know what time it was, because I didn't know whether I had heard it begin to strike, but I could { count three couples, which meant that j it was 11 o'clock at least.. I didn't i know, of course, that it was eight j bells, midnight, until the voice of the ! boatswain came to me through the i bulkhead that separated the cabin from the quarterdeck: "Aï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½aï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½all the port watch!" I could hear the men below grumbling and cursing as they turned out. They had evidently been sent below to the hammocks after the topsails had been reefed for a couple of hours ii.. I eouid hear scraps of conversation. ".NTow!" ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½Kill him!" "This is the best time!" "The old man's alone!" What I heard niied me with dismay.

Before I could press the trigger I heard a call on the deck above me. a shot, a rush of feet, a scuffle, a _;roan, a fall! "With you!" said I, loosening my hold on the pistol, but taking good care to keep ready. "I am with you, all right. What do you propose? I am sick of the treatment M received, andï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½" "We want that treasure for ourselves." (To be Continued) CHAPTER VII- Wherein I Bargain For a Woman What had happened I could well guess. Captain Matthews had been attacked. He had promptly shot one of ihe mutineers and thereafter the rest had got him. My first impulse was to blow open the lock of the door and rush to his rescue, but wiser counsel prevailed, and I did nothings. I am, I think, somewhat cool headed in a crisis, and surely this was one. I could wait. A loaded pistol was better than an empty one, and to deal with me they would have to come to me for whatever purpose they might entertain, either to murder me or to release me. In either event -I could do more than if I rushed into the fray now. I could not help Captain Matthews. I was sure that whatever fell nun^osï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ t_.s,,r mi^ht entertain .for __v little mistress would be in abeyance until they had settled with me. I listened with every nerve strained to the utmost. I also waited most anxiously for the opening of the after cabin door, which was-her own, but she must have been in a sound sleep, indeed, for the door did not open. Evidently she had heard nothing. I waited. It w-as not an easy task, but I judged it best. Fortunately, I had not long to Avait, for in less time by far than I have taken to tell it the hatch was opened and the heavy booted men clattered down the companionway. The key was in the lock outside, and I could hear them turn it- I loosened my sword, which I had slung by its belt around my waist, picked up the two pistols, sent my back up against the side of the ship and made ready for whatever came. The door was pushed open abruptly and I saw the cabin was crowded with ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½men. At least half the crsw were gathered there, anu it was a little cabin, the Rose of Devon, being but a small ship. Tha rest, I guessed, were on watch. I could not see the boatswain. Evidently he had the deck. The vessel couldn't be left unwatched on such a night as this and in such a sea, and he was the Attest man to take charge of her. The steward had lighted the cabin lights, several of the men carried lanterns which they had brought from the forepeak, and others had drawn their sheath knives- There was plenty of illumination to show their villainous faces. They were surprised to find me so prepared, and I gave them no time to recover. "The first man," I hissed out, "that steps across that threshold without permission gets a bullet through him!" "We mean you no harm, sir," spoko out ono who seemed to be a ringleader, a man rated as boatswain's mate, who~o name was Glibby. "What are you doing hero?" I asked, "in th _ cabin at this time of night?" "Softly, softly, sir." replied Glibby; "wc are hero to ask questions, not to answer 'om." "What do you moan?" I cried. "We are masters of tho s.ilp." "Captain Matthews?" "lie will captain no moro ships on tlili. or any other sous," answered GUbby, with truculent oniphusis. Now, It rose in my mind to shoot him then and thoro, nnudo.oUH brute that ho was. If T had been alone perhaps I would havo dono it without reckoning tho consequences to myself, but I had another to think of. Unless craft; ntnorl mo in good stood her case was hopeless. And bad as Glibby was, Pimball was tho chiof villain. "Serves him right!" I broke out with woll ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½imulated hont. "lie disrates mo aim looltfl mo up horo for rtonlin;: a kiHH from a maid, andï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½" "Spoken llko a man of nplril, MiBter Mampdon!" cried GUbby. "What did A Wise Banker North Dakota Banker Who Jieiped Boys to Learn Something of Pure Bred Stock in Ward county, North Dakota, is a banker who has shown true philanthropy and wisdom. He bought a carload of pure bred gilts and distributed theni among the boys in the county who promised to care for them according to the advice of County Agent W. A. Peek. In the fall the boys could buy the sows at their actual cost, or thev were to give the sows back to the* banker, hut they could keep the increase. Some of the boys bought their sows and those wko did did not had the pigs as their own. The banker bred such sows as were returned to hint and again put them out with boys in the county. In this way tiie boys learned how to handle pure bred stock, and were shown the superiority of blood and proper care. They cams in personal, touch with the county agent who was able to teach them much more than pig feeding. They got a substantial reward for their work, and a start that will mean much in the "future. The banker did a most excellent thing for the boys and for the county. The boys are the future farmers ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½and will have money to deposit in his bank, we hope.

During the month of April, this year, there was a further decrease of 14,574 persons. Of these 13,131 were males and 1,443 females- Of course, says the Tageblatt, this decrease can really be attributed to the fact that so many of Berlin's citizens are at the front. There also has been considerable decrease in traffic. Figures just prepared show that in April,. this year, the street railways carried 47,642,723 passengers, which i3 five millions and a half less than in April, 1914. The elevated and underground roads carried 6,234,750 passengers, being a decrease of 1,600,000 compared with the same period in the previous year. Tax- icabs and other vehicles carried 1,- 663,586 persons, being a decrease of nearly five millions. If Holland Entered Germany is undoubtedly very vulnerable on her Holland frontier. Were Holland to be goaded into belligerency by German attacks on her merchant ships or by other infringements upon her rights, it would be unfortunate for the enemy. Not only would German territory thereby bo at once thrown open to invasion by Dutch, British and French troops, but also the Scandinavian countries would be almost cortain to follow in the wake of Holland's action. Denmark, Norway and Sweden would not find it to their advantage to remain neutral when all their neis.v bors were at war. They would join in the wolf hunt.

To Disperse Poison Gas Invention Will Force the Deadly Chlorine Over the Heads of Men at Front Sir Hiram Maxim has completed an Invention which is a reply to the German poison gas methods of warfare. Exhaustive tests have been made in trenches under conditions as nearly as possible to those in Flanders, aud it is understood tha*. the war office is -_t-.T _ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½_.*-._ hlir imnroccii/l ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½'U"l-i tha 5*i- vontion. Sir Hirani Maxim says that the poisonous fumes are chlorine gas. "Chlorine gas," he says, "when in pure state at one atmospheric pressure weighs two and one-half times as much as air. In escaping from high pressure to atmospheric pressure the chlorine necessarily rises, mixed with a lot of air, and by the time it is twenty feet away from the discharge pipe the ratio is five volumes of air to one of chlorine. "The specific gravity is correspondingly reduced, and by the time the fumes reach our trenches there is one hundred times as much air as gas- We know that to be approximately true, because if a soldier breathed a chlorine mixture of one in twenty he would not live more than a few minutes. Scientific men have tried to neutralize the effects of the gas by respirators, "but you might just as well think of filtering alcohol out of water with a piece of wire gauze as try to separate chlorine from the -'.t- mosphere by such a device." Sir Hiram called "these gauze things" "aspsrators"ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½short for "exas- perators." That sums up his estimate of their utility. It is not permissible to give away Sir Hiram's secret, but it is said that the invention will force the poisonous fumes over the heads of men in the trenches. "I do not think that the British," he said, "should descend to the use of poisonous gases, and I am convinced that the enemy will not continue their use once he finds how easily and how* cheaply the fumes may be dispersed. "Another device I am engaged upon relates to the defence of our trenches against the bayonet. It is upoa a wholly new principle, but I am not at liberty to describe it. In fact," Sir Hiram continued, "I have my pocket full of new inventions. At the age of seventy-five my day is one of seventeen hours and I want to give that time to serving the country." Some.

Allow a liberal quantity of clean water to drink, provided the horse is worked or-exercised immediately after drinking. . Carry a pail and sponge to frequently wash or swab the animal's nose, mouth and face. Give a warm bran mash on Wednesday nights in addition to the one given on Saturday nights. Avoid .'all grades whenever possible. "Relieve harness -pressure from sores. Remove collar and shoulder 'pads froto harness every night, wash pressure surface with warm water, an& soap and hang out in the sun to dry before putting them on the animal. Supply two sets of pads for use on alternate days. If this is done sore conditions will be. entirely prevented. Peed properly, study the individual horse and determine just how much nourishment is required to keep it in serviceable condition and health. Don't underfeed or save on bedding, blankets, shoeing, or employ incompet- ent^help in order to save money. __on:t practice a false economy, which invariably results in weak, lame, sore or enfeebled animals.

One of the best dog stories-of the war, and with the .additional merit of being absolutely true, is told us by Mrs. Armar Corry, who. personally met the hero thereof at the" American hospital at Neuilly. This dog, named Fend l'Air, belonged to an Algerian soldier called to the colors. He managed to get on board his master's ship and landed at Marseilles with him; crossed France to Belgium, .c- companied him in the great retreat and also in the victory of the Marne, and shared with his soldier owner the life in the trenches. One night the trench was blown up by a" shell, and' the man was buried, wounded, in a mass of earth. Fend l'Air scented out the exact place where his master lay, started digging, and at last got his head clear, and then barked continually until he summoned some stretcher- bearers. These dug tho wounded man out of the earth, and he was taken eventually to Neuilly, where the American hospital relaxed the rules so as to admit the dog as-woll as his master. And the man is now recovering and owes his life directly to the faithfulnes- of Fend l'Air.ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½Field and Fancy.

Widespread devastation from this cause was also seen.ih. China, where the wood cutters in search of fuel for the dense population, * completely stripped the forest cover from the hill slopes over immense areas -which now are deserts- This destructive prpce_- is going forward very rapidly in the southern ap- palachiau region of the United States. The loss is estimated at some tan millions a. year. According to experts a field lying at ah angle of twenty degrees, can be totally destroyed, having all the soil washed off after a hundred ploughings, and it is estimated that in Kentucky, where cultivation is scarcely more than a hundred years j old, jone-tenth of the arable soil has been destroyed and that a considerable 'portion of this cannot be restored in any v.'ay. A warning is issued that this danger is threatening on the mountain slopes in British Columbia. A strong plea is made that the sides of the mountains shall not be depleted of their forests either by the axe or by -lire. .

A Word to Manufacturers Is the mercenary instinct to rise above patriotism? All Canadian manufacturers should be thinking about just now is how to help the empire and do their bit toward crushing the Ger- ymans. If shells can be better made in -England than in Canada let them be made there. If Canadiah .labor can be employed to greater advantage in England than in Canada, while parts of the empire are straining every nerve to respond to Lloyu George's call for more munitions, then let it be employed there. It will be time enough to think of profits when the war is over, and we are placing new industries on a permanent basis. Away with the dominance of the almighty dollar!

Demonstration Conducted in North Dakota of _nte~est to'Farmers The agricultural extension depart- ment of North Dakoca furnishes ihe following description of feeding steers with roughage: The object of this trial was to show what results could be obtained in utilizing the rough feed grown 'on the farms-in carrying out a systematic rotation of crops, including corn; and alfalfa. The manure: produced to-be-returned to the farm. The cattle were bought at South St. Paul,. Nov. 5, 19.14. They, were not of "extra grade, costing $5.85 per cwt., and averaging 775 pounds, or _ _ er 00 -**..., i.-.r-ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½- - rnt. ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ '_ *. _ o i..-.. s._-_ <pï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½t)..iï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½U. .CI UBitU.. ill. .1101 ut uujuig and shipping but was a few cents more than $2 per head, and the cost Of shipping back. and selling a little less than $3, making the total expense out. and back under $5. They were shipped back to South St. Paul and sold May 31, 1915. Twenty-six head ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½f_J.he best finished of theitwo cars,- averaging .1,05.4 pounds, sold for $8.35, which was the highest price paid that day, and 22 head, averaging 1,067 pounds, brought $7.65. This made an average of ,8c per pound and an average weight of approximately 1,060 pounds, or $85 per head. One car of these cattle was fed on the farm at Aberdeen, South Dakota, and the other at Grand Forks, North Dakota. They- were fed pratically the v same feeds, but the Aberdeen load was fed grain a little longer and showed more finish. They were a little lighter than the Grand Forks cattle, but more of them sold for the top price. From November ' until January these cattle were fed corn fodder ahd sonde alfalfa ' and alfalfa was not very good as it was the first year's crop and had a good many weeds in it. _*_*o_a^.Janua_y on they were- fed silage. and some grain- We began by* feeding ear corn then ground the corn, -cob and all. Later, we shelled the corn before grinding, and added barley or speitz, about half ind half, but did not feed heavy of grain. At no time did we feed all the grain they would eatï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½twelve to thirteen po_*nds per head per day being the most we fed. They were fe-i all the silage they would eat, whicli Was about 20 pounds per head per day. Our rseerds show that the 25 hen.d at Aberdeen, in addition to silage, alfalfa hay and some corn fodder, were fed 215 bushels of corn which was ground, cob and all, 50 bushels of ground speitz and one ton of oil meal. This was all ground and mixed. Eighteen head of hogs following the cattle sold for' $253. 'ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½- . The Grand Forks cattle were fed grain in addition to silage and hay for 74 days, during which time each; ate^approximately: corn, 12 bushels; barley, 9 bushels; hay, 700 pounds; silage. 1.000' pounds. Allowinï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½aiar- ket price for these feeds would be about. $20 per head (silage figured at $4 per ton). In addition hogs followed these cattle,- and there were nearly 100 pounds of pork produced- for each steer fed. Further there is in the lots manure to cover 20 acres or more of the farm.*- As to the cost of labor, it was necessary to. have help on the farm, and the cattle were attended to with practically no additional cost. While no attempt was'made to conduct this work in a scientific way, nor. to present the results as proving any important facts, it is believed that the demonstration Indicates that it is possible to grow corn and alfalfa, build straw shades and silos, and not necessarily lose time and money in building up our soils. It muy be added that every pound of feed fed was grown on the farm, that the cattle were not fed one feed In a shed, and had only a- straw shed for protection. The alfalfa hay was not first class, as it was largely from first year's seeding. The silage was kept in a pit silo, and the silo was refilled in March with dry fodder, and water added. This silage is practically as good as silage put In last fall while green.

The Remington Arms-Union Metallic Cartridge Company and the Bethlehem Steel Company have both been specifically named as objective points of the German efforts. . But it now appears that there is not other hay.. The ythe slightest chance of Germany securing a dollar's worth of interest in either of these two great concerns.: r Mr. Samuel F. Pryor, vice-president and general manager of the Remington Arms-Union Metallic Cartridge Co., was seen today* in regard to the persistent rumors that have lately been in circulation, .to the effect that offers made by a foreign government for purchase of the properties of that company were under considerations, and ihst the 9-dditions to the Ilion. and Bridgeport plants, which are under construction, are intended to be merely temporary and made only for the performance of special contracts en- torpri tnfrï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ 2.n.{i are not 'ntende'' for th" permanent uses of the company- Mr. Pryor was very emphatic in asserting that there was not the slightest foundation for these rumors; and he pointed out that one story necessarily destroyed the other, because, if a sale of the plants and properties was made, the additions would not be required for the purpose of enabling the company to perform its con-, tracts; for the supply of arms and ammunition. ' .; Mr. Pryor stated that no sum which- might be offered for the properties would afford the slightest temntaticn to the owner to dispose of them and thus prevent the performance of exist- ^ ing contracts. Mr. Fryor was equally emphatic in asserting that the additions to the plants did not constitute a mere temporary expedient, but were largely made in accordance with tho general policy of expansion adopted by the company before the outbreak of the European war, and that this policy would not be Interfered with even if the war were to come to an end tomorrow. The additions to tlio piants now under construction, are of the most modern type and. of the most substantial, durable and perman* i ent character.ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½Commercial and Financial World, Now York, June 21.
