This amount has been raised largely by voluntary contributions, no systematic canvass having as yet- been inaugurated, except at Sirdar. Just to show what can be done by a personal hustle for funds is shown at Sirdar, where Mrs. Dennes and Mrs. Loasby made a thorough visitation of that section and succeeded in collecting S88.50 cash money. Notwithstanding any and all statements to the contrary, the Valley i&> out to provide a machine gun. Almost one-third of the amount required is already pledged and it is hoped that those who wish to contribute to this worthy object will not wait to be asked, but will put their- names down on the lists, which are in the hands of Monrad Wigen (Duck Creek) W. V". Jackson, the C.P.R. depot, King George and Creston Hotels, and R.S.Bevan. The governments of Great Brit- and Canada have heartily endorsed this movement, and recommend the fund as one" of the best mean? of patriotic effort available at present. No more effective method of saving the lives of our brave soldiers at the front, and increasing their efficiency has yet been suggested. In proportion to its population the Valley has made almost a record showing in - the matter of recruit, for overseas service.

Mr. Lowenberg is an enthusiastic worker and booster for the reclamation scheme, which if carried out, he estimates will result in adding 40,000 acres of the finest land in British Columbia to the amount of available agricultural ground in the vicinity of Creston. "The way it is possible to carry out the scheme of reclamation" said Mr. Lowenberg, "has been carefully worked out by engineers who have made recent surveys for both the Canadian and U. S. governments. It will entail an expenditure of between two and three million dollars, largely in the vicinity of Groh- man crook, on the Kootenay river, at which point the largest obstruction to tho free passage of water at tho high water season, is existent. Some work will also have to bo done along the West Arm. In the carrying out of the plans, the difference between high and low water on Kootenay lake will bo made only a fow feet, ho that back Hooding of the flat* at the mouth of Kootenay river, both on tho Canadian and tho American wide, will become impossible, thus making the flno rich land down there available for cultivation and nofctlomont, There ban boen no-flooding this year to amount to anything, consequently ranches on tho American side have had a chance to domonstrnto what really can ho done wIt'll th** kind of un\ llu-iv ia.

He is Thos. E. Goodwin who on a sijf-acre ranch during the month of May and June, from three cows, manufactured 25 pounds of butter each week and used and sold to customers nearly six quarts Of milk each day in the bargain.' It-should. u_ noted iiha.L~3������Cr;; Gend- wins cows are of real milking strains; two of them part Jerseys* -and one a Holstein. They are fed. on a st-rtiight clover diet with bran, etc as required to keep up the milk supply, about six tons of the former being required for last winters feeding. His supply of feed is secured from three acres* sown to clover on bis own place and the balance he has always secur* d by cropping another area to the same feed on the share basis, f n the pasture season he, of course, has to rent a grazing area, which .to date it has not been-difficult to secure at a reasonable rental* While Mr, Goodwin's accomplishment may not be exceeding noteworthy from the purely bnttermaking angle, when we remember the small area on which he is operating, and prior to locating in the Valley dairying has never engaged, his attention, his showing is more than creditable��������� both in the quantity produced and the low cash operating costs. Aside from butter and milk which was available for sale the by-products for hog feeding and fertilizer should not be overlooked, more particularly tho latter. For some time past government speakers and farm magnzinos have been advocating the absolute necessity of doing exactly what Mr. Goodwin haa accomplished, and although somo still tell us laud is too, high priced for that sort of thine; it is satisfactory to havo this evidence that tho thing can too done���������and on an area considerably smaller than most of our ranchcra aro working.

McCreath has been appointed pound- keeper and the pound is at his premises ou Sirdar Avenue, AH the necessary information reached him last week, along with a set of books, and business will commence to-morrow. According to the Pound District Act the proprietor of any land, in the pound district, or the poundkeeper of such district may capture any animals found within such pound district and .drive or deliver same to the pound, Whether the'bwner of such animals be kiiowii to the captor or not. The pound keeper is ordered to keep the pound clean and in good repair and to supply all animals impounded with sufficient and wholesome food and water and if deemed advisable may send such animals out for grazing or watering. For feeding and looking after animals impounded the poundkeeper makes the folloAving charges: For each, stallion or bull per day 50 cents, for each other horse, mule. Jack, head of cattle or swine 30 cents per days for each sheep, goat or goose 10 cents per day. In addition to jihese costs the -Proprietor Gf any land trespassed upon or property injured by any animal is entitled to compensation" for such damage, and is also allowed reasonable expenses for delivering sijc-h *aji- ih'al to the.tpound. - All tlieae'charges'," of course, have to be paid by the owner of the animal before, he can get his beast out of pound. Anyone impounding a stallion over one year of age or bull over nine months is entitled to a fee of $5.00. Wlxen the: poundkeeper knows the owner of the-animal impounded he will ..forthwith.'; notify him, but where the ownei? is unknown if the animal is unclaimed, after y three days the poundkeeper shall proceed to advertise the animal for sale, by posting notices in conspicuous places and by advertisement in the local newspaper, the sale to bo held ten. days after the date of the last publication of the advertisement. In case of more than one animal being impounded, if the owner is known only sufficient animals shall be sold to pay all charges. Where the owner is unknown all tho animals must he sold. For this advertising and posting these sale notices considerable 'more expenses is incurred and it behoves al! residents whoso animal or animals turn up missing to communicate with the poundkeeper forthwith if thoy would keep down the charges. Under a penalty of not more than $100 the poundkeeper i_ prevented from impounding or inciting or employing any porsoii to impound any animal; or neglects to provide food or water for any animal impounded, or works or uses the sumo in any manner while impounded: or neglects to properly milk any cow or goat. Likewi-0 tho _amo penally Hindi be imposed on anyone who rescues or at- tomptH to roHcuo any animal impounded; does any damage to any pound, or loavos open any gate or lots down any bars or makes a gap in any fence so as to allow any animal to trespass and become liable to bo impounded.

Ail the patient devotion of years, all the restraint of the long voyage, had come to naught. aft on the ship realized it. There was a peril, imminent, menacing, about to break, I feared. You see, the fact that we were- treasure hunting had gone" about. I had not thought much of the crew, including the villainous looking boatswain, Piinba.ll.- We had shipped a let of smart seamen, about the average in quality and above the average in['smartness* I decided as the days had passed with nothing happening, but Pimball had signed some I could wish had been left ashore. Her presence on-the ship, too, was a mystery. Alone in the little Rose of Devon with thirty' men. By evil mishap the maid she had brought with hor had died after a brief illness two weeks out. Captain Matthews and 1 were for -turning back, but she said no, she would go ou. We had lost too much time already and her all was embarked. We were now plowing the blue waters of. the Pacific, and I, mate of the ship and the only othor officer to be trusted, locked up! We were nearing the latitude and lougitiule of the island.

The Royal Highlanders, though considerably shaken, remained immovable upon their ground- The 48th Highlanders, which no doubt received a more poisonous discharge, were for the moment dismayed, and, indeed, their trench, according to the testimony of very hardened soldiers, became intolerable. .The battalion retired from the trench, but for a very short distance, and for a very short time.

As it was, I drew myself up and waited while she sent for good old Captain Matthews and. vouchsafing no explanations, imperiously bade him stow me below as ap risoner in my cabin. He didn't relish the job, but went about it forthwith. Indeed, I did not wait foi* further orders after her look and glance 1 stalked beiow as haughtily as you please. It was her ship,-as she had said and as she certainly believed, and had it not been, her captain, engaged in this wild goose chase, this foolish search for treasure, for so it seemed to me then, locked up below like any mutinous dog at the behest of a woman that I could have broken between my thumb and linger. And after what I had dono and sacrificed for her too- Come to think of it. I had always loved her, ever since those days when I, the gardener's boy, had been her faithful and devoted slave. And through the long years when I had been far voyaging in distant seas I had kept her memory fresh and sweet and true. Although I had been in many rough places I had seen life from the seamy side, and the common lot of a sailor of my day had been mine. There arc no better seamen in narrow seas or broad than I. I had worked my way up through the forecastle to the quarterdeck. 1 had a natural gift for figures. I *could take a sight and work out a position as well as any book-taught navigator, and 1 had been a great reader too. -My private cabin was ever crowded with books. Much of my earnings were sp.nt that way. I had wit enough to choose good books too, and perseverance enough to study them well. ���������* I knew more than she���������oh, much more!���������about everything hut the usages of good society, and 1 hud at U-ast learned something of good manners in her company sineo her father's death. My shipinat. ������������������ used to laugh at nie for being a book ilelvor���������a worm, tliey were wont to call it. Well, they didn't, laugh very long.

I thought her silence was consent. I see now that it was amazement- I seized her in my arms like the brute she must have thought me. lifted her up and kissed her fair on the lips and then on her averted cheek. Arcester, the blaok- r_. _nu!u have done no w-orse. I forget how she stigiuatiz.d me���������"brute, coward, low born." I don't believe she had railed at that scoundrel duke so fiercely. Well, I didn't care what she had called me- Her safety, her life, her honor demanded that I be released. That was the paramount concern. I listened. I thought I heard a footfall in the outer cabin. Could she be there? I suppose that I had been locked up for perhaps an hour. Aye, on the instant the bell forward struck three. We kept man-of-war customs at her fancy. The sound came to me faintly as I listened. Half past fl- She could not have gone to her berth yet. She must be there in the great cabin. T ventured to call. I What it cost me any man can imagine���������and to humble myself to ask her mercy too. I am a man of fierce temper, as you have deemed, but I can control it on occasion, and 1 did it now. I shook the door of the cabin gently at first and then vigorously and called once and again. There was no answer. 1 beat upon it. I raised my voice. T scarcely thought, T could -> heard on deck. The wind was blowing, the sea was heavy, and the ship was pitching wildly. Tho straining, the creaking, tho groaning of the timbers would have prevented such a noise as I made from attractiiif* attention unless some one wero in the cabin. But all in vain. No heed wna paid lo me. and yet. T could swear that somebody was there. 1 don't know how euxctly, but 1 was conscious uC her presence.

It has been ex- 1 plained, and, indeed, the fundamental j situation made the p.ru clear, that ; several German divisions were at- j tempting to crush or drive back this ��������� devoted Brigade, aud in any eve.it' to use their enormous numerical sup-' er'iority, to sweep around and overwhelm its left wing. At some point in the line which-cannot be precisely determined, the last attempt partially succeeded, and'in.'the course of this critical struggle, German troops in considerable, though not in overwhelming, numbers swung past the unsupported left to the Brigade, and, slipping in between the wood and St. Julien, added to the torturing anxieties of the long-drawn struggle by the appearance, and, indeed, for the moment the reality, of isolation from the Brigade base. In the exertions made by the 3rd Brigade during this supreme crisis, it is almost impossible to single out a battalion without injustice to others, but though the efforts of the Royal Highlanders of Montreal, IStli Battalion, were only equal to those of the othor battalions who did such heroic service, it so happened hy chance that the fate of some of its officers attracted special attention- Major Nora- worthy, already almost disabled by a bullet wound, was bayoneted and killed while he was rallying his men wi'.h easy chee.fuhxesa. I The case of Major MeCuaig, of the same battalion, wi__ uot less glorious, although his death can claim no witness. This most gullant officer was seriously wounded, in u hurriedly- constructed trench, at a moment when it would have been possible to remove him to safety. Ho absolutely refused to move, und continued to guide und i encourage his mon. But the situation j grew constantly worse, and peremptory orders were received for au immediate withdrawal. Those who wore compelled to obey them wcvj most lusister.t fo carry with theni, at whatever risk-to their own mobility and saf-ty, an officer to whom tbey wero devotedly attached. But he, knowing, it may be, hotter than they tho exertions -which still lay in front, of ihorn, and unwilling to inflict, on theni the disabilities of a maimed man, vory: resolutely refusod, and asked of them one thing only, that there should he glvon fo lilm as ho lay alone in the trench two loaded Colt revolvers to add to his own which they In his right, liuiul us ho made his last, request. And so, with throe revolvers ready to his hand for uso, a very bravo offlcor waited to sell his life, wounded and racked with pain, in an abandoned trench. On Friday afternoon tho left of the Canadian lino was strengthened by important reinforcements of British troops, amounting to seven btiUuiious- I'J.o.y '���������/_���������. t Wiii; i.iudc from first to last to reinforce the Canadian division with the greatest possible speed and from thin time forward lho iMvlslon also rooelvnd further assintiinco on the lort, from a series of French counter-attacks, pushed In a north-easterly from the canal hajjk. But the artillery fire of the enemy continually grew in intensity, and it became more and more evident that the Canadian salient could no lougor be maintained against the overwhelming superiority of numbers by which it Avas assailed. Slowly, stubbornly,, and contesting every yard, the defenders gave- ground until the salient gradually receded from the apex, hear the point where it had originally aligned with the French, and fell backupon St. Julien. Soon it became evident that even St. Julien, exposed to fire from right to left, wa_ no longer tenable. The 3rd -Brigade--was"therefore-'ordered to retreat further south, selling every yard of ground as dearly as it had done since five o'clock on Thurs-; day. But it was found impossible, without .hazarding far larger forces, to disentangle detachments of the Royal Highlanders of Montreal, 13th Battalion, and of the Royal Montreal Regiment, 14th Battalion. The Brigade was ordered, and not a moment too soon, to move back. It left these units with hearts as heavy as those with which-'his com- rj.des had said farewell to Major Mc- Cua!"-. The German tide rolled, indeed, over the deserted village, but for several hours after the enemy had be- | come master of the village'the', sul-i ient and persistent rills fire which sur-;1 vived showed that they were not yet master of the Canadian rearguard. If they died, they died worthily of Canada. . ; Tha enforced retirement of the 3rd Brigade (and to have ..stayed long* r would have h.en madness) reproduced for the 2nd Brigade, commanded by Brigadier-'-'eneral Curry, in, a singularly exact fashion the position of the 3rd Brigade itself at the moment of the withdrawal of the French. The 2nd Brigade, it must be remembered, had retained the whole line of trenches, roughly 2,500 yards, which it was holding at 5 O'clock on Thurs-��������� ^ day-afternoon, supported by the in- alreadv dis- i comparable exertions of the _ra Bri- purpose to notice that the attack succeeded in its object, and the'*Gern___ advance along the line momentarily' threatened, -waa arrested, We had reached", iti describing tb_ the events of the. afternoon, the poiuts at which the trenches of the 2nd Brigade had been completely destroyed. This brigade, the 3rd Brigade, and the considerable reinforcements which by this time '''filled, the" gap: between the two brigades, were, gradually driven fighting every yard upon a line running roughly from Fortuin,-south of St. Julien, in a north-easterly direction towards Passchendaele. Here the two brigades were relieved by.two British as frituful, and alas! as costly a-s soldiers have ever been called upoii tc make. -Monday morning broke Bright: and clear and found the Canadians'-behind: tha firing line. Butthis day, too, was to bring its anxieties.: v-phe attack wais still -pressed, and it beeani������Jaeee3_a. y to ask Brigadier-General Curry whether he could once ymore call Jon his shrunken brigade.^ ,' y a- "The men are tired," this indomitable soldier replied, ;x "but they are ready and glad to go again to the trenches- " And so once.more, a hero leading heroes, the general marched back the men of the 2nd origade, r_- to a quarter of its original orig* the line flic ads, and by the highly hazardous deployment in which necessity had involved that Brigade. uu i_ngauiaii.au lnaiutaineu its lines. It now devolved on General Curry, commanding this brigade, to re- p.at the tactical manoeuvres with which, earlier in the fight, the 3rd Brigade had adapted itself to the Sank movement of overwhelming numerical superiority. He flung his left flank round south, and his record is that in the very crisis of this immense struggle he held his line of trenches till Sunday he had not on Sunday afternoon he had not abandoned his trenches- There were none left. They had been obliterated by artillery. He withdrew his undefeated troops from the fragments of his field fortifications, and the hearts of his man were as completely unbroken as the parapets of his trenches were coni- pletsly broken. In such a brigade it is invidious to single out any battalion for special praise, but it is perhaps necessary to the story to point, out that Lieut.-Colohel Lipsett, commanding the fl0th Winnipeg Rifles, 8th Battalion of the 2nd Brigade, held the extreme left of the brigade position ut the most critical moment. The battalion was expelled from the trenches curly on Friday morning by an emission of poisonous gas, but recovering in three-quarters of an hour it counter-attacked, retook tho trenches it had abandoned, and bayoneted the enemy. And after the 3rd Brigade had been forced to retir_, Lieut.-Colonel Lipsett held his position, though his loft was In the air, until two British regiments filled up the gap on Saturday night. The Individual fortunes of these two brigades have brought us to the events of Sunday afternoon, but it is necessary, to make tho story complete, to recur for a moment, to the events of the morning. After a very formidable attack, the enemy succeeded in capturing tho village of St. Julien, which bus so often boen referred to In describing the fortunes of the*Canadian left. This success opened up a new and very menacing line of advance, bat by this time further reinforcements had arrived. Merc again, It becanie evident that tho tactical iinoeflslties of the situation dictated un offensive movement as the surest method of arresting further progress, Qeneriil Alderson, who was In command of the reinforcements, accordingly directed that an advance should ho liiudo by another British brigade which had boen brought up in Hiipport. The attack wan thrust through the Canadian left, and oeiiti'o, and as tho troops making It, swept, on, many ot thorn going to tier tain death, they paused an Instant, and, with decp-threuted chet-rs for Canada, gave tlio ilv.t Indication to tin- D'vhiion of lho warm admiration which their oxovtknc' had excite*! In tlui British Army. Th;- advance ivaa huUcd coMy, btii It. was made wIlli a devotion which could not be denied. The slory 13 ono of which the Brigade may ho proud, but It doon not, bolong to tho special Account of the fortunes qf the Canadian contingent. It Is mUflcient for our duced to a quarter of its strength, to the very apex of as it existed at that moment.' This position he held all day -'Mon.- day; on Tuesday he was still occupying reserve trenches, and.on Wednesday was relieved and retired to billets in���������the rear. Such, in the most general outline, is the story of a great and glorious feat of arms. A story told so soon after" the event, while rendering bare justice to units whose doings fell under the eyes of particular observers, must do less than justice to Others who Played their part���������and all did���������as gloriously as those whose special activities it is possible even at this stage to describe. Bat the friends of men who fought in other battalions may be content. in ���������cue RuOnicu5c ljucl uicjj- tvii/, ouan {.learn, when' the time, allows the cora- plete co-relation of diaries, the exact part which each unit played in these 'unforgettable days.

Theirs is a lonely life, and very often a lonely death. One cycle messenger lay on the ground badly woun.l- ed. He stopped a passing officer ahd delivered his message, with soma verbal instructions. These were coher ently given, but he swooned before the words were out mouth. The artillery never flagged sleepless struggle iu which so much depended upon its exertions. Not a Canadian gun was lost, in the. long battlo of retreat. And the nature ol the position renders such a record very remarkable. One battery of four guns found itself in such a situatio.. that it was compelled to turn two ol its guns directly about and fire on tht onomy in positions almost diametrically opposite. It is not possible In this account tc attempt a description of tho service. rendered by tho Canadian engineer* or the medical corps. Their laembei*. rivalled in coolness, endurance and valour the Canadian Infantry, whose comrades they were, and it is hoped in separate communications to do jus tl-ce to both ti.oso brilliant services.

History Furnishes Several Instances of Formation of Coalition Governments There have been four big coalition governments besides this one, though I only one of these has beftn on a parallel with the present British war ministry.

At that time the outlook was black, for though Nelson had y just A won- Trafalgar, Napoleon was sweeping over Europe, xhis great coalition fell because George III. refused to allow Catholics to Teceive commissions, in the army. In 1757 was formed a successful war coalition, at the time whenCiive was conquering India, and fighting was going on in Canada, while the Seven years' War was being waged in Europe. This coalition lasted for four years. .���������'"'��������� A coalition government followed the War of the American colonies, now the United State.s, lasting not quite two years. Another such government was formed just before the Criraetm war and fell when the scandalous conduct of the campaign was brought to light.

CRESTON, B.C., FRIDAY, AUG. 13 Too Much of a Good Thing They had a provincial election in Manitoba on Friday. The newly-installed '_><"orris Government was endorsed at the polls almost unanimously. Out of 46 constituencies voting that day 40 of them elected supporters of the Liberal Norris administration. Even the new Conservative leader. Sir James Aikins, was snowed under, not a reminding us that we are prone to make much ado over our soldier boys as they leave us but forget that some of them are sure to come back maimed and crippled for life. With a machine-gun fund campaign on the Valley Review readers are entitled to know the pros and cons of the matter. While the militia authorities may be under the impression that sufficient machine guns are now in sight, advices from the battlefront ax*e to the effect that these weapons cannot be provided in too great quantities."

Inspect these today, while the stock is complete. While they last, any suit $19. tf_a b Cheap Money for Farmers a bigger statesman than most Canadian first ministers iu the past have been, Mr. Norris is liable to find his seeming strength a very real weakness. To ke������p any government in the straight aud narrow way and hustling to secure legislation in the people's interests, a live and fairly numerous opposition in the house is essential. In the absence of this corrective influence cabinets are liable to give us government of the party by the party for the party, rather than for the people; particular^/ when it comes to spending the public money. Had our own provincial government been blessed with a more numerous representation to the left of Mr. Speaker during the past seven or eight years we doubt if the "Crisis in B.C. had ever been heard of, while in Alberta there would have been no Alberta and Great Waterways Railway scandal aud the name of A. C Rutherford would not decorate the scroll of Canadian ex-provincial premiers. In discussing certain representations made by a large delegation who waited on the cabinet a few days ago. Premier McBride made it clear that the immediate operation of the loan clauses of the Agricultural Credits Act was out of the question just now. Money for the purpose cannot be borrowed except at a high rate of interest which, when augmented by the necessary charge to cover ex" penses, would be more than many farmers would be willing to pay. Sir Richard pointed out that the government was averse to making' a start even if funds were available in a small way;; if money .wen* loaned this year at say 8 per cent, and next year funds were to be had foi* the same purpose at 6 per cent, it would not be long before the far- m ana bins Cotton Sweaters These are splendid value at 35c. each, but to clear them out we place the balance of our stock on sale at 25c.

Your money back if goods are not satisfactory Phone 63 General Merchant CRESTON Your Help Needed For either economic or 'stragetic' reasons���������your political leanings may help you to decide which���������the authorities at Ottawa have sent out word that all the machine guns needed by the Canadian troops for some months to come have been provided for and it is suggested that the generosity of Canadian citizens with respect to the war can be more effectively shown in other ways now that the machine gun need has been met. Within almost the past two weeks a decided opposition to private citizens, or groups of them, donating to the fighting equipmont necessary f<~r Canadian battalions has arisen. One of the reasons advanced against the good work is thut it is the business of the Dominion to see that the troops going overseas are properly equipped; the country is not yet bankrupt, and is well able to pay for a score of machine guns to a battalion, if that be the proportion. In this connection, too, it is ob- kmi-v-imI that with lho government furnishing the gunn overynno in Canada pays his or her -share of tho cont; on the donating basis tlio entire cont falls on those who feel inclined to contribute to hucIi a ''ii'iw.

The government must arrange for a loan at a rate that will be as nearly permanent as it can possibly be. In fixing a rate at whioh money can be safely advarced on agricultural security it, is worth noting that an examination of a series of census tables shows that the wealth of a country increases at the rate of not much more than H per cent, yearly. This is a fair average, we are assured, taking periods of years and countries as a whole. On this theory a rate of 5 per cent, should he the maximum charge to the man on the land. Just now money cannot be borrowed so as to re-loan at that figure; in fact it can hardly bo borrowed in large amounts for any use not connected with the war. All of which leads the Colonist, the government organ, to remark that "it will be absolutely necessary to wait until the money market is easier to sot the Agricultural Credits Act into operation."

The fruit is used in the fresh state or is dried, canned, made into jellies or juices etc As yet the demand for this fruit has far outrun the . supply and prices have been high. Soil While the loganberry may be grown on a large variety of soils it does best on deep rich loams that have enough clay tomake them reasonably strong and at the same time enough humus and sand-'to make them fairly loose, openi porous and easily worked. Some of the best-land for loganberries* is that known, as river bottom land and while it is not harmful to have the land overflowed for a short time in the winter it needs to be well drained so that there will not be any water standing on the land during the spring when growth is starting. Propagation and Planting The loganberry ' is propagated by means of rooted tips. The ends of the new canes take root during the early spring. One of the buds near the rooted portion of the cane develops an eye from which an erect shoot is produced. This shoot together with the rooted tip of >the cane constitutes the tip and it may be dug up and planted where desired. If a large number of tips is desired the shoots should be pinched back when 8 or 4 feet long, which will cause them to throw out several laterals. The ends of these laterals usually root as readily as do the ends of the main canes and make as good plants. If a Hi tie soil is thrown over the ends of the canes I hey will root more readily. The planting should bo done as early in the spring as is practicable in order that tho young plants become firmly established* before the dry weather arrives. Tho tip should bo sot in a depression in the ground from il to 5 inches deep and in such a way that the crown of tho tip is barely covered with soil, Gradually tho depression will become filled iu until the level of the soil, immediately above the plant iH the same as that of the Hold in general. The distance apart at which to sot the plants will vary with the riehno. s of the noil. The richer tho soil the farther apart the plants should bo planted. On moderately rich soils they should ho from tt to K feet, apart in the rows and the rows from 7 to 0 feet apart. On rich bottom land_ they should ho set from 8 to 12 feet apart and the rows from 10 to 12 feet apart' Cultivation Ah with other cane fruilH the loganberry requires thorough cultivation at least until the time the fruit is bar- vented and preferably later. Trellismg and Pruning A trellis of Home kind ia necessary iu order t.o keep the fruiting canon off i.lio ground. A straight trellis of either two or three wlrew |m itwoiilly ;i.'>;'d in a ������onimciciu] ulantuiioii. If two wires are used they are wtretched about three and four and onehiilf feet respeclively Irom the ground. wires are used they are strung at about three, four and five feet from the ground. In good soil the shoots of the loganberry may attain a length of fifteen feet and so will cover the ground bet- ������7oon the rows an���������*if not attended-to" will interfere with cultivation and will become broken by the cultivator and by being tramped on by' theApickers. To avoid thi<* they should be directed along the rows and thus" madeh' to spread m only two directions from the parent plant. . , -.- A ���������*..;..���������������-j.>A>K.."'. After the old -canes have' fruited they should be cut out, and as soon as growth starts in the spring the canes that grew the season-before should be taken up and tied fo t-h'*** wires.* the canes being separated and one or two led along each wire in each direction, the canes being cut back to such a length that they will not overlap the canes from the neighboring plants. Usually some laterals will have formed on the main canes, these are headed back to a length of from 15 to 20 inches at the time the canes- are tied up in the spring. Age of .Bearing and Duration of Plantation Promptness of bearing will depend to a great extent on the cave the plantation receives and on the soil. A small crop may be expected the third summer after planting, while a profitable crop may he expected the fourth summer after planting. The profitable duration of the loganberry plantation will depend largely on the care it receives and on tho suitability of its environment. It is. known that there are plantations fourteen years old or ovor that are still bearing as well us over thoy did. Yield The loganberry is one of tho most productive of the cane fruits. Four tons per acre is considered a moderate yield. On rich land- and with tho canos in prime condition fiOO to (100 crates per acre equal to from 5 to 0 tons is not an unusual yield. or The few peach trees in Kaslo appear to have an unusually big crop this year TTon.

To this question j there can he only one answer. It does over j not need a voyage across the Atlantic I to make one realize that Canada is a country with a wonderful future. Nor, so far as I can see, are any superhuman qualities required for success by the intending immigrant. He will have to work hard, which is exactly what he would have to do anywhere else- But the man who goes out to Canada after the war will find it possible not only to take advantage of new opportunities, but also to create opportunities for himself in a degree impossible in tha old world.

A young man, sleeping in an outhouse, took some coals from a coke fire and put them near his opt. In the morning he was dead of suffocation. It fell to a friend of mine to explain the cause to the heartbroken mother. He pointed to a coal fire in a grate in his house- "If we stopped up the chimney," he said, "this room would be filled with gas from the coal and with \ smoke.

Perhaps the basal stay away for ~ood factor in bringing about the change is ' G " an economic one, but it is quite probable that it is something the same as is familiarly known A in medical parlance as a complication of diseases, or,������ in other words, a combination of circumstances and conditions have led many of our brightest and best farm boys and girls to the city. There are bright and shining examples of those who have made'good, hut there are many others of those who go, who often leave better homes than, they find in, they city, often perform harder tasks, than.at home, 6f- t������n endure hardships, privation aiid financial embarrassment, all for the sake of the something in the city which seems to be lacking in country life. It may be that the younger people in the country place too high a value on the glitter and glare of city life, and do not appreciate nor truly understand the possibilities and opportunities O- country life. Tliere is abundant beauty and interest in nature surrounding those who dwell' iu the country, but with many, all nature is so intimately blent with associations-of toil that it cannot be looked upon with pleasure. With many, too, these sensibilities have never been awakened. Trained to do so, the country youth would look upon nature ;-differently. The place arid time .to exert an influence in tins direction is in the public school when the children are young. The teaching should be done, too, by better paid, and^ consequently less migratory teachers than we now have in many of our country schools, who7 should be qualified to give the country boys and girls a more adequate training for life in the country. The children should be trained to" live a fuller and richer life as well as taught to read and write. This ;s something for the parents tbemselves to consider and act upon, and which should not be left entirely to the schoolmen. The opportunities for social recreation and enjoyment in rural parts are often undeveloped and almost entirely neglected. It should be remembered by the parents that young people are young people wherever they are found, and those in the country enjoy a good time as well as those in the city. They like to mingle with their fellows, and opportunity should bo given for them to do so. The country homes should be thrown open more frequently to young peoples' gatherings of various kinds. We often hear the older folks describe tiie good old times of long ago when mention is frequently made of the par- ' ing, sewin_\ husking, and quilting bees, and the barn raisings, spelling matches, singing schools, etc These all afforded and were intended to afford opportunity for social intercourse. Whore are they now? What have wo in their place True, we havo some things now whic/. we had not then, as, for example, the telephone, automobile or rubber tired buggy. The telephone may account in part for tho smaller number of social gothoiings in some places.

Activity along_ these lines has been, so far. confined largely to cities, but one day thesj things will receive attention" by thos; who dwell in rural parts. Places of informal association'liave ay greater value in socializing than the appointed meeting places of tha people. In recent social surveys it has been discovered that the places of casual meeting are almost exclusively places of business, such as stores, barber shops, mills, blacksmith shops, elevators, or places of necessity as the railway station and post office- These casual meetings .in the country are, it must be admitted, a wholly insufficient socializing experience. If/ is bad enough for the men but it is much worse for the women- They, in many instances, are deeply in the rut of ::stay at hprae.A Replies to an enquiry ���������recently conducted in the United States indicate that "while some farm women are < cheerful, a happy and contented, many complain bitterly about the long hours, isolation and lack of social recreation found _YPthe farm. ."���������'���������' Why should the school houses be used only a few hours each day by the children? There is no reason Avhy they should not be the farmers club .houses and fprni the -social centres for the adults. They are built and paid for and all ready for -use. In places of business one hears nothing but economic commonplaces and as. the substance of conversation and discussion is conditional by environment the meeting in the school for social, literary, and musical purposes would certainly have an elevating influence upon those participating. Economic processes have had much to do in bringing about the condition of affairs so complained of today. The tendency of farmers to retire to the city and the departure of the young people to seek their fortunes in the cily, have dissolved the rural household and undermined the traai- tional country home. So far there has been little in the way of reeoi- struction. Without a reconstruction the rural household cannot be mada stable. The church and the school should be reconstructed with the purpose in view of restoring a normal social life, which ��������� would mean the buildiug of a new country home i:*. which the son would succeed the father, and tho daughter be contented to remain.

The tilt of two languages was evidently suggested by Zola's famous accusation which brought about the public trial, of the Dreyfus case. The book appeared in Germany, where it enjoyed a large secret circulation, in spite of the efforts of the government to confiscate it.���������'��������� The first authentic account of "'J'Accuse' von Einem Deutschen" has been written by one Gordon-Smitl; for the New York Tribune. He writes in part as follows: - The author not only writes as a German- but thinks "as one.; Kis reasoning is that of a German dialectician. '.'., It is written1 by the author not against, but for Germany. He is a a German Liberal- What he says does hot differ sensibly from the language, we are accustomed to hear from the leading organs of the German ALiberal press, the Frankfurter Zeitung or the Berliner Tageblatt, before the ware. It is difficult to understand their complete "volte-face." Perhaps if they were free to write as they please we'might hear a different language from that they now employ. The author of "J'Accuse" has at any rate preserved his independence arid remained master of his ides.s and of his pen. ' ... He declares���������and. proves���������that the war was plotted, prepared and declared by the German military party. It had its precursors and its prophets; General Bernhardi, Treitschke, Fjo- benius and others. He shows tne methods used to work on public opinion, to knead it as one kneads dough. He cites the effort made to-obtain the introduction of international arbitration and the reduction of armaments by the czar, Nicholas II., and proves to demonstration that this effort shipwrecked on the unyielding opposition^of Germany and Austria- This checkmated the loyal co-operation of the other powers, great and small. The writer proves that Great Britain was untiring; in her attempts to bring naval construction, but the Berlin cabinet refused to entertain these proposals. . Why" rrt... :-. . .-?.���������_?���������'��������������� Following the announcement which appeared in the press that Hon. Martin Burrell had initiated a comprehensive markets propaganda in the livestock branch of his department, an explanation respecting the details of that policy will be of interest. The scheme involves: "1" The organizar tion of an intelligence system; "2" The organization of the farmers for co-operative action in selling: "3" Promotion of sale by grade and payment according tci ..quality; and "4" The cooperation; of ail interests in the development of our livestock trade. The intelligence .sysiciriyto Abe organized will provide for statistics of animal populations .and of production. To accomplish this, there will be A co-^ operation with the census branch of the agricultural departments of the provincial governments. The work will cover information of it of the produce. It is now proposed to initiate the oo-operative sale of livestock, lambs, hogs and cattle ia accordance with principles followed in similar work already undertaken. It is not intended to involve the department in any commercial obligation, the farmers' association assuming all and complete responsibilty in the transaction of their own business and ultimately in-the executive administration of their organization: It is recoghized that the salo of produce on flat rate basis for example ia the .ass of hogs, invariably inflicta a penalty on the progressive farmers- AandAafEord it premiumifrirAlow grade 'goods*.

Splendid results have already been achieved in the organization of farmers for co-operative, action in selling in the system already in force in the handling of eggs in Prince Edward Island, and the policy adopted la"-*t year in selling wool. The former scheme will be extended to cover all provinces while in connection w:.h the wool co-operative Selling plan, it is hoped to devisi improvements which will secure for the producers the commercial advantages of deferred sale when the markets warrant i/_i.ui*-ui wiii inaugurate a plan for the promotion of sals by grade and payment according to quality.

And why did she want war? The empire was enjoying an Unexampled period of economic progress and prosperity. It was known to be th- strongest power in Rurope, and everybody bowed to its will. It developed unceasingly its power, its riches, and its force. No one dared to face it t rtssuluLBly. This wiis aweii during, the Morocco crisis and the Balkan wars. No one dared to attack it. No one had the courage or even the desire. But a powerful party in the empire dreamed of a still greater omnipotence and it managed to make a great people, laborious, intelligent and, at the bottom, peaceful, believe that the war was a "Befreiiingskriefc*," a war of liberation, like that waged a century before against Napoleon. A war of liberation fro.ni what?���������from whom? This question will never find an answer.

Farming Should be Made More Attractive and Profitable to Encourage Rural Development _no p. etuci-_n of a large emigration to Canada from Europe when the war is.over is an additional reason for taking stock of agricultural conditions.in the Dominion. That Canada offers abundant productive employment if the necessary machinery can be set in motion is patent to everybody with even a slight knowledgs of this country's resources. And having agreed that there will be a heavy immigration an.it tuStj we can fine, room xov ait who come, the present is the time to consider the question of the class oi immigrants who are likely to seek homes in the new "World, their ability financially and by experience to adapt themselves in a manner that will .work out successfully under the conditions which they will he called upon to meet. Pioneering as a generaj thing is arduous, the results coming slowly even Cor those r.tarting with a fair amount of capital and backed by experience! but nature is generous here, and, provided all other things are equal, the industrious newcomers should find themselves making good progress. If there are conditions, however, which tend to retard agricultural progress and help to discourage the struggling worker, the present is the time to discover such influences and endeavor to abate their possible effects. Wc look upon this country as a land favoring men ot small means, possessing willingness and a capacity for work, and for such there is room for many hundreds ofthousands. Experience teaches however, that simply dumping people on the land is not always ���������sufficient. This country, like every young community, has its own peculiar problems to work out for itself, though in the present instance there are certain aspects of nation-'/ide significance- For intance,-it is esseii.tial-'that the cost of production Bhould boar no undui handicaps and that whatever has militated against a more rapid extension of the cultivated ai'ca in the wnst should be discovered and tho faults remedied as far as possible. If rural development has not been sufficiently rapid in tho past, what is to make farming moro attractive and moro profitable In tho future?

Owing; to its rapid and. rank growth rye chokes out many weeds. It is of particular value in combating wild oats on this account, and also because it ripens between the middle of July and the end of the first week iu August, or much earlier than barley. . 3. As'rye makes its growth eayly in May or June, the crop is well developed before the arrival of droughts, so that in place ot decreasing the yield these really assist in maturing tho crop. 4. Rye ripens much earlior than wheat and consequently is not subject to damage from early frosts. 5. Ripen ine beforo other cereals, it distributes the harvest season over a longer period of time and Justifies a farmer in hiring his harvest labor ���������perhaps a month earlier than he otherwise might, thereby securing it at a lower rate of wages. 6. A field of winter rye affords fall pasturage and also the earliest green pasturage In this country. If sown early, the crop may safely bo pastured in the fall, and unless stink weed or other winter annual weeds, aro present, early . spring naaturing -will not cause injury, it cut green it makes excellent fodder nnd will generally yield moro per aero than any other buy crop, When grown for this purpose two cropB can usually be cut in tho one season.
