her feet without laughing.

THE WAR PRIMER By National Geographic Society

lreland.-The historical and polit- ical importance of Ireland has created in the minds of many Americans an exaggerated idea of the islands physi- cal proportions and the density of its population. two vital factors in Eng lands task of suppressing the rebel lion which has had it's inception in the capital and largest city, Dublin To- days geography bulletin, issued by the National Geographic society from its headquarters in Washington, gives the following information on the subject:
 "The whole of Ireland, recently un- der martial law, embraces an area slightly less than the state of Maine but with a population almost six times as dense. In comparison with the gov erning country, it is three -fifths as large as England and Wales, with one ninth the population. The island is one of the very few sections of the civil ized world where the population has shown marked decrease during the last century. The first census of the island, taken in 1921, recorded a pop ulation almost 50 per cent. larger than of 1841 showed the highwater mark of more than eight millions, nearly twice the present population of 4,375,- 900. This remarkable decrease, due to a large degree to emigration, began after the famine brought about the QSLANO uASSdS0 LI6 potato crops of 1845. This calamity resulted in the withdrawal of more than million acres from cultivation within two years. Incidentally, the potato, which has played such an i'm portant role in the life of Ireland dur ing the last three hundred years, is not indigenous to the island, but was one of the food gold-mines discovered by the Spaniards in the conquest of Peru. The country is directly indebuted to Sir Walter Raleigh for her Irish po- tatoes. as it was he who brought them from what is now North Carolina and planted them on his estate near Cork, in 1885.
 Ireland lies on the western rim of what was once a part of Continental Europe. It has numerous mountains the highest being McGillicuddy Reeks GAIA feet) in the Killarney region but there is no mountain chain or ele- vated backbone There is a more or less well defined central plain, how ever, the distinguishing feature o1 which is its bogs-the black bog pro- ducing the famous peat fuel, differen- mountains. If the whole island were brougt to a mean level it would rise 400 feet above the sea.
 The lakes, or loughs. of Ireland are among it's most widely appreciated physical characteristics, their scenic beauty being the inspiration of poets painters and musicians. Nor have the Irish rivers been overlooked in ap. praisals of the islands beauties. Int Shannon, which flows for 250 mile. from the county of Cavan, in tho northwest. to the Atlantic in tn, southeast, is the longest water -courss

TO THE EDITOR
How Sheep Raiser Looks at It.

How Sheep Raiser Looks at It.
 Mir. Editor: feel it my duty to re- plytto the two last dog letters in your valuable paper. I do not know the kind of sheep or dogs kept around Packer. MT. Montgomery says there are dogs in his neighborhood more valuable than whole flock of sheep and then goes on to say that a man has a female setter which he refused S150 for, that he has sold two filters of pups and no man in Connecticut could get one of them for a dozen of his best sheep. Perhaps MT. Mont gomery knows what he is talking about, but it sounds silly to a breed CT of good sbeep, as I can tell him of a lot of sheen right in Connecti- cut that cost over $100 each. have three that cost me S60 each and plenty more in my flock of 90 that are equally as good. Twelve times $60 equals $720, which I think ought to bring quite nice pup.
 On the sheep side he says a man buys a lot of waste land that would not support black snake, then buys sheep and puts them on the land to live or die. I suppose they die. He must then have queer lot of sheep owners and much queerer set of Selectmen that would pay man for sheep starved to death in a pasture a snake could not live in. We do not have any of that kind in Lisbon. remembaf well when every farmer in town kept from Is to 200 sheep and every farmer had lamb and peas the Fourth of July. also nice mutton hanging around ready for a roast if a friend dropped in. do not think the sheep industry s1umped by farmers buying poor land to turn sheep to starve to death as they were not built that way. Ask any of the old farm CTS why they stopped raising sheep, and they will tell you the dogs killed them.
 And in those times the town and not the state paid for them, and there was always a fight between the owner and selectmen about the price of the sheep. The sheep were not kept in a wood lot. but lived on the fat of the land.

in the United Kingdom It is navieat- ed by large steamers for half it's length, and is connected with Dublin by means of the Grand and Royal canals
 Although coal Is found in most of the 32 counties into which the island is divided, and there is considerable iron ore, mining is not an important industry. Gold was being mined in a modest way in County Wicklow at the time of the rebellion of 17sS, but the works were destroyed and the source of the metal has never been re-discov- cred.
 Agriculture and stock raising are the chief occupations of the inhebit ants. At one time the woolen nnanu- factures of the island were formidable rivals of English factories, but hostile legislation gave the industry a check from which 1t has never recovered. As the Irish have raised flax for centuries the manufacture of linen early became one of the important industries of the country. Irish whiskey is an import ant article of export and one of the largest breweries in the world is To- cated at Dublin. The islands produc- tion Of beer is three and a half mil lion barrels annually.
 "Shipbuilding in the great yards at Belfast is one of the most widely known of Irish activities, and the deep sea and coast fisheries afford live lihood for many thousands.
 Thanks to the temperate influence of the west winds from the Atlantic, the thermometer rarely reaches freez- ing point in winter. while the average for a summer days is so degrees.
 At Torr Head on the north the dis tance to Scotland (Mull of Cantiri) is only 13 1-2 miles. The Giants Cause way, short distance to the east of this point, is the outcropping oaisaltic formation which in a former age join ed the two islands"

eARpENINc BY CHILDREN,

During the long days of spring and throughout the summer there are times when the children are longing for something to do. They may have plenty of time for play and recreation but they are still unsatished. They want to accomplish something and turn their minds to practical. things which win keep their hands busy.
 There are many ways in which an outlet can be found for this enthu- siasm and one of these is through the Home and School Garden club which has been organized among the school children of the town. by County Agent Warner, assisted by Supt. E. J. Gra- ham. This is in keeping with the ef- fort which has been made in many places to interest the children in cul- tivating small kitchen gardens or making use of plots of grounds which are available and which can be made to produce much of the vegetables re- quired in the home
 k Not a few school children already make practice of planting such gar- dens and becoming interested either in the growing of garden truck or flow CTS, and there is no reason why many more should not do likewise. All that is needed is a little encouragement and a few instructions in order to bring about gratifying results, which not only occupies time which would be otherwise wasted, but increases the knowledge of those participating along new lines and provides good and wholesome exercise in the open air
 Clubs of such character which have been started in many communi- ties have accomplished surprising re- suits. They teach thrift, application to duties and responsibility in addition to better understanding Of the forces of nature and the opportunities to take up this work furnishes just as good a chance to develop the competi- tive features among the children as already exist in many instances among the elders who cultivate gardens on a small scale, and who pride them selves on their early or unusually fine looking vegetables
