needs no pointing out He knows that the editor at home is eagerly awaiting the fullest and most vivid accounts of the war; he gladly risks his life, and spends laborious days land sleepless nights to send them.
 On the other hand, his messages are rigidly limited to a certain num- Der of :yords-40O or 200, as the case may be-and they must run the gauntlet of that terrible pencil which may sweep away half of them and leave the rest of them incoherent, if not actually meaningless.
 In the last Soudan campaign a well known correspondent Was se- verely lectured by his editor for send ing dispatch after dispatch about the rise of the Nile" the excellent health of the troops, and the perfect organi- Zation of the army, to which he an swered quite truly: T was not all lowed to send anything else, and that although the censor had been a per 'sonal friend of mine for years"
  when he took message to the cen sor at De Aar was packed off by him to Beaufort West, twelve hours south by rail, where no censor was to be found. There he was advised to go to Victoria West, where again disap- pointment awaited him; and it was only when he came to Cape Town that he got rid of his message, re- duced to a dozen meaningless words.
 Once, so the story is told, Welsh correspondent, wiring home privately from the seat of war, wrote IS fol- lows: "Righto, Phone, N'il-gracht."
 This simple and hearty message the censor refused point blank to pass. It was in cipher, he declared, and cipher messages were strictly forbidden; and no argument or demonstration could convince him that these innocent words were not a betrayal of some vital secret-London Answers.

FIGHTING PESTS FOR
 BENEFIT 0F FARMERS

In a telling display the great work of the horticultural and agricultural commission in fighting the great en- emy pests of the former, is brought to the attention of the visitor to the state fair. In a series of show cases the host of pests that assail the farmers crops are laid out and classed and their danger made appar- ent, whilst the methods adopted by the commission to combat the evil are also advised and demonstrated.
 In their classes, the exhibits include those of the pests that assail cotton, vegetables and citrus and deciduous fruits. The campaign against the ever present grasshopper pest is made the strong number. The havoc wrought by grasshoppers is one of the things the farmer has to contend with more than anything else, and as remedy several methods are advised. An in genious apparatus that, it is hoped, will be generally adopted in the Salt River Valley, is being shown in model of the hopper box. It consists of a canvas and wood drag containing shallow pans in which water and oil are placed. This is to be dragged through the alfalfa fields. The hop pers, disturbed, fly against the raised canvas screen and are caught in the fluid. This devise has been produc- tive of excellent results wherever used. The bran mash method of poisoning the pest is also given. Root diseases In their many forms are shown, whilst the fly menace is brought to the at tention by a striking list of figures, The fine record of work accomplished bv the commission in Arizona Tn the past six years is tabulated and forms a central feature of exhibit. The ta- ble shows that in that time the eff ciency of it's work has been increased five-fold.

Scene from Protea II at the Arizona the most terrific arraignment of the whole iniquitous system of war. It is impossible to defend the colossal folly of it from the standpoint of right or religion. The folly of it proves the correctness of the peace mans contention, viz, that prepara- tion for war brings war. The contest now is, War or Civilization" Let humanity demand, War must be de stroycd,' for war is the suicide of civilization. Robert C.
