WHAT CHANCE HAD THOSE
BOYS. EACH CLUTCHING HIS
STEERING WHEEL AND GUIDING

most suse death of service in the
modern Dreadnought. advancing to
the supreme risk of the ordinary life
of the member of an aviation corps,
coupled with the warship OF the mod
ern idol OF efficiency, and welded
with the inhuman publicity of aero
plane warfare, to steel men to the
pitch of myriad-fold suicide.
AS 1 looked, the thing that wrung
my heart was the awful unfairness
of it,
What chance had these boys. each
clutching his steering wheel and
guiding himself TO eternity? What
chance had he? He was feather in
a storm. He was harnessed to his
death as surely as the old slave chain
ed to his oar in a sinking galley
only in this case, it was the manacles
of habit-the habit of efficiency,
esprit du corps, false shame that
would not allow him TO withhold his
hand from quadruple murder, that
would not let him avoid the crash and
save his life and ms soul. So each
drove straight to humiliation.
And right there the glory" of war
ended-if there ever was such a thing
and cold butchery, the flendish face
of war unmasked. the fiinty heart of
war laid bare-appeared so ali the
world could. see.
The two hosts met like an infinitely
extended football rush line, mostly
in tandem. in which when two units
came together they cut each other
asunder. and dropped through a hell
of space to the nothingness of phys

The Bleriots mostly struck the
Wrights between their planes. and

There was no effort on the part of
the men driving the Bleriots to es-
cape-they seemed to take their
death as they might draw their
wages.
And the end was universal death!
The two clouds coalesced, as by
some baleful attraction-and dropped
a CHASTITY hail of dead men and hum
ming engines, and the crushed fab
RIGS OF the machines. Where a mo-
ment ago had been cloud was now
clear sky; where roar, was now ST.
hence. For the human machines
were as silent as the ones of wood
and metal.
What had been but now the good
ly shapes of men, was only a reef of
red remains and horrid ooZe. There
were no groans, no cries TO God, no
pleadings for water. no ambulances.
nor hospitals, nor nurses, nor need of
them, none of the sweet offices of
mercy, no mercy no pain, none of
the human mitigations of war no hu-

Deep as the drifts of snow in a
Maine forest lay the debris which
steamed gasoline and flowed blood.
Invaded and invader, mOnOplane and
biplane, Wright and Bleriot-there
they lay still and silent, and awful.
The struggle in the trenches had
ceased. All seemed to be struck dumb
by this last intolerable outrage against
Man made in a certain divine image,
an dthe God who made him.
And then came the final touch of
exquisite horror. Here and there, the
dead and their machines law 20 feet
deep-and in these there took place
an occasional explosion. which tossed

flames sprang up as if earth were

just how sentiment and politics has
changed towards the liquor question

years. It shows that the public
demand for lessening Of the whis-

our public men have taken heed to

Criticises Sunday Racing

Mr.. Editor:
We speak of Cambridge as the
mcst beautiful town in the State;
we boast OF our rapid strides along
the road 6f progress, CT our splen-
did commercial advantages, our fine
business blocks, our magnificent
churches and excellent schools, and
yet, we sit idly by and allow horse
racers to hold high carnival right in
the shadow of our churches and
schools, on the Lords Day.
& The stranger within our gates
could have witnessed such a spec
tacle Yesterday atterncon, land many
no doubt did, much to their sur
prise and disgust. A hundred or
more persons, old men, middle-aged
men, young men and young women,
boys and girls, could be seen lined
up on one side of Washington St.,
between Race street and the rail-
road crossing, watching the carnival,
and giving expression to their de-
light as the drivers lashed their
horses to greater efforts. This is
not. a tale of ancient Greece and
Rome, but of an actual occurrence,
almost within the corporate limits
of Cambridge, on the Sabbath Day,
N this age of Christian civilization.
Is this some of our boosted pro-
gress, or is it, to the thoughtful
mind, sure sign of moral decay.
If Cambridge is to preserve her
reputation for progress, it is high
time that some steps were taken to
put an end to this Sunday horse
racing, once and for all. Let us
hear from some of those in au-
thority. Citizen.

Selling Horses.

More money can be made feeding
other class of stock feeding. There
is constant demand for good draft
horses and the average farmer
should keep draft mares and have
few young horses to sell each
year. It is very important that the
horse possess good conformation and
have ability, but the price received
depends very much upon the condi-
ton of the horse The amount of
flesh which the horse carries has
very much to do with the price
which will be received upon the
city market. In fattening horses
for market, find that stall feeding
is by far the best method. Exercise
is not necessary. 1t is very impor-
tant that the food is not changed
during the fattening process and
that the horses be brought to full
feed gradually. Horses should be
confined in stalls and fed al the
grain and hay they will clean up.
In fattening horses corn may bring
returns as high as 81 a bushel. Clo-
yer hay is an ideal hay for this
work, and when fed with corn to
fine, large-boned animals, produces
gains CT as high as five CIR six
pounds daily. Bran may be fed with
corn, but corn produces very salts
factory results when constituting the
sole grain feed. Many farmers fat
ten their young horses and sell
them raw and unbroken. If broken
before fattening and sold as broken,
I have found horses will command
a better price. City business con-
Germs have no time to break horses
before using them and gladly choose
and Fay better prices for the brok-
en- ones. I have also found that
horses will bring more money when
sold in matched teams than when
sold singly.
This method undoubtedly pays
the feeder we'll, but the horses are
made less valuable by the forced
gains made without exercise. These
pampared horses will be Of little
value for six months or more after
they begin work.-Farm and Fire

Men and Women In World.

The total population Of the world is
now estimated at 1,700, 100000. This
is based upon the most recent census,
which all civilized countries now take,
with a careful estimate of the number
of inhabitants of uncivilized lands.
The proportion of the sexes is known
for 1,O3S 100000 of these, the ratio be-
ing 1000 males to 900 females. The
ratio varies considerably in different
places. In Europe there are 1000 men
to 1,O27 women; in Africa, 1000 men
to 1,O45 women; in America, 1000 men
to 964 women; in Asia, 1000 men to
961 women; in Australia, 1000 men to
937 women. .e,,--
The highest proportion Of women is
found in Uganda, where there are l.
ACT to every 1000 men. The lowest
proportion is in Alaska and the Malay
states, where there are, in the former,
S91, and in the latter 3S9 women to
every 1000 men.
