GENERAL HENRI PETAIN
ADVANCED DURING WAR

Paris - Gen. Henri Petain, the
defender of Verdun, is typical of the
modern French soldier. He is Just so.
He received his commission as second
lieutenant in 1878, and became a cap
tain in 1890, and a colonel in 1900. He
was a colonel when the war began and
was going to retire.
General Petain first distinguished
himself during the retreat from
Charleroi in the early days of the war.
He became bridadier general and gen.
eral Of division, and rose rapidly to his
present position.
He is a ~curiously modest nan and
hates being photographed. He is i'm
mensely popular with his men whom
children. General Petain is very
methodlcal and weighs his food every
day, saying that it is as necessary for
officers to be in perfect condition as
for ~acehorses Keeping III condition
is his pet mania. He was turned put of a
flat which he occupied once because
he insisted on taking half an hours
exercise with a skipping rope after his
bath ach morning.
The result is that General Petain
at 60 is as active as the youngest lieu
tenant in the French army. Quite re-
Gently in Champagne he covered four
miles at the double at the head of a
company, and he prides himself on the
ease with which he undergoes the same
hardships and the same hard work as
any man with him.

The schools don't educate country boys
to till the soil. They don't aver teach
them to look on farming as a dignifed
business" a farmer is quoted as saying
this in Ewing G~aIloway's article. Stay
on the Land" printed on page % Of this
issue. 1t is a damaging statement, but
we believe the farmer who made 1t knew
only too well what he was talking about.
One of Nh. Galloway's points is that the
text books used in most country schools
are not the right kind Of text books. The
problems In the country school arithme-
tics are problems about imports and the
and corn; the question is not the one OF
the number of bushels Of wheat a farmer
can tease out Of a given number of acres.
but some matter that concerns city peo-
pie and clerks who draw a salary and
wear maize to order clothes and live in
door lives. There is a great deal of lead
wood In the school books used by country
schools and a correspondingly large or
p%ortunity for the text book author who.
knowing country life as well as his spe-
cialty, will write country life text books.
Such text. books will teach the three RS
all the better because they deal with IA
miliar terms; and they will tend to make
more first rate farmers out of farmers
sons,

Importers Must Get Permits.

The quarantine order against pota-

stock regulations of the plant quar-
antine act and provided that no po-
tatoes could be imported until the
importers had secured permits from
the federal horticultural board, SINH

Of nursery stock. The regulations pro-
vide that:
Potatoes to be admitted must be
certified by the government Of the
country of origin to be free from ian
gerous diseases and insect pests cover
ed by the quarantine, and must nave
been grown in a district free from the
wart disease and the powdery scab.
The new regulations define the exact
conditions under which such disease
free potatoes will be admitted.
The regulations, in general, besides
prescribing the exc forms Of notifying
the government of shipments, provide
for the admission under the inspection
system, Of potatoes from all countries
not under quarantine. Such countries

naming under quarantine by the Uni

The regulations also provide for the

countries covered by the quarantine
upon the presentation of satisfactory
evidence to the secretary of agricul-
ture that such country. or w~ell-defined
district thereof, is free from injurious
