TANKS" FIGHT IN PAIRS
Known as Males and Females, Says
Officer of Nova Scotia
BSttalion.

Kingsport, N. S.-A description of
the operation of British tanks" was
given by Lieut.. Harry w. Hiltz of the
Nova Scotia battalion on his arrival
here.
There are two types of tanks,
known as the male and female tank"
he said. ''They fight in pairs. a male
and female. The male tank carries
two heavy guns and six machine guns
and the female has two heavy guns
and five machine guns.
"They certainly proved n great sur
prise to the Germans, and might add
to us as well, as they came numbering
along during the fight for Courcelette.
They of course did better work then
than they have accomplished since, for
the Germans have become accustomed
to them and know better now how to
fight back. Nothing but direct hit
by heavy shell will damage them in
the least"
Lieutenant Hiltz says the new Brit
ish war machine travels about two or
three miles an hour and when 1t comes
to n trench the front part draws up
after the manner of caterpillar at
tempting to get over an obstacle. At
night when the tanks are used n white
tape is run out ahead from the ma
chine and serves as guide for 1t.

CANADA AGAIN
A PRIZE WINNER
highest Premiums Awarded at
Many Exhibitions.

The Fall fair season Is past and
retrospect Of them shows that Western
Canada is stronger than ever in the
matter of exhibits, and has taken more
than her usual share of the prize
money. From Western Canada to
Texas is long look, from Alberta.
Saskatchewan and Manitoba to the
southwestern corner of Texas Is sew
eral days journey, but the entcrprising
farmers from this new country to the
northwest were wide awake to the
possibilities that waited them at the
International Dry Farming Congress
held at El Paso. Texas, a few weeks
ago, to bring to the attention of those
in that far-off corner what the land of
Western Canada could do in the pro-
duction of grains and roots from its
soil. And what did these farmers do?
The first thing was to carry or the
first prize and sweepstakes for wheat.
That was foregone conclusion. for 1t
has now become an established fact that
nowhere else in the world is there
grown wheat of the high character and
market value of Western Canadian
wheat. The same may be said of oats,
of barley and of rye. But when 1t came
to notice that Western Canada took
first prize for alfalfa, IL was then that
more special attention was given to
the products from Western Canada. 1t
showed that in that country there lies
the opportunity for supplementing the
wonderful native grasses, so full of nu-
triton that with the tanned varieties.
among them being alfalfa, the cattle
with no other food were fnttcned and
fitted for the shambles. Western Can
ada's worth was proved as probably
the greatest mixed farming portion Of
the continent. When the steers from
the Western Canadian prairies reach
the Chicago stockyurds they bring
the top price and outweigh those from
other places where grass fattening Is
the process. But II was not only in
grains that Western Canada cnrried
or the highest honors at the FL Paso
exhibition. Potatoes, parsnips, beets,
carrots and rutabagas also took the
highest honors. In root production
this country is becoming favorably
known.
Inc question often hrlSes us TO UiHT-
kets. There is always the highest
price awaiting the producer. and as
soon as the Hudson Bay Railway, now
about completed, reaches the Bay,
there Will be an additional outlet for
the product of the farm. The Pacific
coast route, via the Panama canal, will
give another outlet of which full ad-
vantage may be taken. With virgin land
selling ut from S15 to $40 per acre, and
improved farms Mt reasonable prices
and on easy terms, there is no better
opportunity for the man with limited
means and desire to secure home
Mt the least cost in country where
he can soon become wealthy, as thou,
sands of others have done, than in

San Diego, Cal, has the record of
the highest suicide rate in the coun-
try, 1t being 63.3 per 100000 of popula-
ton. San Francisco is not far behind,
having rate of 55.7. Sacramento is
also a place conducive to suicide, ap-
parently, for its rate is 51.2. These
figures are for the year 1915, consld-
cred separately, and in each of those
cases show increases over the percent
age for the previous five years.
The figures for 100 American cities
show that the general suicide rate for
1915 was POT. as against 20.3 for the
period between 1904. The trifling
increase throughout the whole coun-
try is caused by the great increase
which the far Western cities had.
San Diego's increase was 20.1, Sacra-
mento's 1915. San Francisco's SO.
Manhattan and the Bronx, which
are analyzed together as city, had a
suicide rate during 1915 of 1914 per
1OO, 900, as against 1875 during the FIVE
years before, an increase of 0.S. Back
in the years between 10000 the rate
was pit.
of all American cities which were in
vestigated. the record in 1915 being
four persons per 100000 Mobile, Ala,
also was low, with 5.3. Auburn, N.
Y, had record of 5.4.
High suicide rates, the Spectator
points out, have to a certain extent
| been connected with years of bad
business and years when business
houses failed, as In 1894, following the
1893 panic, when the general rate was
1913. and 1908, following the last panic,
when the rate reached the highest
mark In the country's history, 21.6.
The smaller the city the fewer the
suicides. the investigator found. OF
the 100 cities considered. 76 were un-
der 250.O00 population. These showed
self-destruction rate of 1872 per 10O,-
600. The "a cities above the quarter
million mark showed an aggregate
rate of 21.1.
