FOOD AS A PEACE FACTOR.
Nation Is irritable Whose Supply 10
Cramped, Says Lord Kitchener.

Cramped, Says Lord Kitchener.
General Viscount Kitchener Of Khar-
tum, who was in Chicago for an hour
and half the other day on his way
to New York, surrendered gracefully
to a surprise attack by a reporter,
who boarded the train on the out
skirts Of the city. Lord Kitchener
asked and answered questions with
good humor. OF militarism he spoke
guardedly, saying:
Zone must be careful when thought.
less word might be wrongfully taken
to mean something one did not intend
1t to mean. AS to Canada's military
see no aggressiveness in the future, so
far as Canada is concerned. The little
navy they are building up there to
only that they may sleep little easier
o. nights. One rests better with g.
bobby walking around the square.
II see no reason why international
peace should not continue from this
very moment. One never knows, how
ever, when something will stir UP
trouble, and war does not often an
nounce itself far in advance. 1t al
ways pays to keep ones powder dry"
as that an expression Of England's
military policy" Lord Kitchener was
asked.
"Well," he replied, II shouldn't put
1t that broadly. England is at peace
with all the world. but our surest safe
guard Of peace is always to be ready.
Until such time as some international
agreement is reached, If such there be,
England will, by being ready at all
times, lend that influence toward
peace"
Asked what he considered the chief
factor tending to international peace,
the general replied:
food. l think food is one Of the
first. The Panama canal has come
into the list now as a new factor also.
The nation whose food supply fs
cramped Is restless and irritable. IL
wants to expand. 1t wants what the
other fellow has. 1t was a comfort to
my heart as peace loving man to see
broad acres Of food producing land in
Ibis country and to hear that Canada
could duplicate them. The Panama
canal was theebest move America ever
made"
Lord Kitchener characterized the po-
litical aspect Of the Pacific ocean as q.
hard question to discuss.
81 wish l knew what the future
would bring forth for the Pacific" he
said. ut is gratifying to us that the
canal is being built at Panama, for
that helps to simplify matters.
"My idea Of the army and navy OF
the future is that the navy must be
the first consideration. Either In de-
Tense or offense the navy must take
the initiative, but nation will have
to depend on its army before 1t can
whip another.
"My whole view of the future is ono
made peaceable by force Of arms
Even with an international agreement
for peace some force must exist to pun
lsh offenders"

Patroness of Music.

The origin of music is lost in an
tiquity. Among civilized people 1t is
probably to be traced to the ancient
Egyptian priests. who employed this
art in their religious rites and cere-
monies. From the Egyptians the
Greeks and the Romans derived their
knowledge Of music. The ancient He
brews probably took with them into
Palestine some of the songs they had
learned in Egypt. The hymns used la
the temple formed the basis Of the
melodies of the early Christian church,
and from these hymns was formulated
the first authoritative musical system
st. Cecilia is termed the patroness OF
music.-Exchange.

~HERE are many millionaire
farmers, but most of them
have made their millions else
where and are spending them
on rural estates merely to crafty a
fancy. There are a number of men,
however, who have made millions on
the farm. 1t is not such an easy thing
to do, but the success of these men
shows some of the possibilities that
the farm holds for the man who de-
sires to make money in large amounts
Probably the most notable of the
men who have made fortunes on the
farm is David Rankin. When David
Rankin was married he handed the
preacher his last five dollar bill with
the remark that now he could start
square with the world. He bought
land on time and borrowed money to
buy cattle. His first purchases were
In Illinois. Later he removed to Mis-
souri,, attracted by the cheap prairie
land that needed only little drainage
to make it yield abundantly. Today
David Rankin owns nearly 10000 acres
Of this same Missouri land. and it

The Spit Snake.

There Is a snake belonging to the
small family causidae, inhabiting Az
RIGA, that is said to have the power OF
ejecting its venom to short distance.
This snake is called by the Dutch
'Boars "spuw slang" or spit snake
When this snake erects It's teeth the
pressure Of the maxillary bone on the
gland causes the venom to flow In
drops, and it may be quite possible
that by discharging air from its mouth
the poison may be blown some dir
lance. ---.---,---.

Enaland's Great Loss.

The rejection Of the budget by the
house Of lords in the preceding parlia-
>ment cost Great Britain in loss Of rev.
enue $40, 100000 in the current finan-
cial year, according to a statement
made by David Lloyd-George in the
house Of commons the other day. The
chancellor Of the exchequer added
that It was impossible to say what
proportion Of this loss could be ulti-
mately recovered.

living on forty acres Of land. His
average net income is $500 year. He
has very comfortable house. To rent
such a house In the city and live as
well there as he and his family do on
the farm would cost him $1,000
year. Considered in that light. his lit
tie farm is really paying him a salary
Of $1,000 year.
In the east the greatest opportunities
are in truck farming. Only few
acres are required, and the returns are
large. A certain truck farmer in the
vicinity of Boston Is making a small
fortune on ten acres of ground. He
has intensive cultivation down to q
science. No sooner is one plant taken
from the soil than. another Is ready to
take its place. He has part Of his
truck farm under glass, so that he
can grow crops in winter as well as In
summer. Last year his net profits
were $1,000 per acre.
