Asked as to the probable cause OF
so many barn fires, Commissioner Wells
replied briefly, Spontaneous combns'
ton" Then he dug up a copy Of the
fire prevention bulletin and called at
tention to the following paragraph con
tanned therein:
"Sweating hay produces spontane'
GUS combustion. The hay in the center
of the NOW, after being heated, begins
to char. Charcoal sucks oxygen from
the little air left, and it gets so hot
that it bursts into flame. Shredded fod'
der sometimes sets itself on fire. The
hayloft should be ventilated by open
ings in both ends.

Russian Loss s,OOO, 900.


Berlin, via wireless to Sayville, l.. l.,
Oct. 6.-Russia has lost six million men
during the first two years Of the war,
according to estimates from Danish
sources given out by the semi-official
news agency today.
Lloyd.George' prophecy to the Unit
ed rress that Russia will fight to the
death" is now about to be realized
literally, the news agency commented,
since Russian losses in the Galician
fighting are again mounting to q fig
ure which even that populous country
cannot stand.
In the battle at Korytnica, which re-
suited victoriously Tor the Germans,
Russian columns were driven forward
under curtains of fire and whips. The
entire Russian waves fell under Ger
man artillery and machine gun fire and
dead bodies formed mountains" the
news agency declared. The czar's guards
were completely wiped out during the
bloody fighting near Pustomty and
Korytnica, after having suffered heavy
losses on the Stochod river

BABY YEAR.

1916 is Baby Year. The facts about American babies, the needs of AmerI- can babies, and Amerlcas responsibi- llity to her babies will this year be known as never before, because the first week in March will be Baby Week throughout the country.
 More than 400 communities repre- senting every state in the Union are already laying their plans for Baby Week, according to the Childrens Blu reau of the U. s. Department of La Dor, in order that during those seven days the needs of the babies may be so presented that all the parents in those communities will learn a little better how to care for their babies, and all the citizens will realize that they have special obligation to safeguard the conditions surrounding babies. And | it is confidently believed by those who are interested in this nationwide Baby Week that the remainder of this year | will be marked by a strengthening of all community activities for saving babies lives and giving them a better chance to grow to healthy maturity. The Baby Week idea originated in Chicago not quite two years ago. Then New York had Baby Week, and Pittsburg, and other cities. Such practical benefit has in each case re- suited that the General Federation of Women's Clubs has undertaken to promote this nationwide observance. State health officials and national or ganizations interested in public health and child welfare have taken up the plan and in various ways are giving it not only their sanction but their active cooperation. The extension di- visions of the State Universities have promised special assistance in inter esting and helping Baby Week in ru- ral communities.
 The Federal Children's Bureau be- ileves that Baby Week will give more parents a chance to learn the accept ed principles of infant care, and will awaken every American to his res possibility for the deaths of the three hundred thousand babies who, accord ing to the Census estimates, die every year before they are twelve months old. Therefore the Children's Bureau
 has prepared a special bulletin of practical suggestions for Baby Week campaigns, adapted to the varying needs of communities of different types. Copies of this bulletin may be had free of charge from the Children's
 Bureau at Washington.

Suspense.

Last night I woke and saw that where The livid dawn first touched the boards Across my room through all the air There stretched a thousand silver cords. My soul then spoke to me and said: These cords are taut with love and pain.
 They mark the agony and dread Of those who wait to know the slain" Some were like faint, blown spider s gauge,
 And others gleamed like violin strings. There came no sound, but without pause They thrilled with subtle shiverings. And as looked 0 tense cord slacked. Some heart was signing it's relief; Another stretched until it cracked. I knew a mother died of grief

BLEW HIS MEMORY AWAY.
Canadian Soldiers Story of What a
 German Shell Did For Him.

Gunner Thomas F. TruSler of the Third brigade, Field artillery, Cana. dian forces, who is in New York, got too close to big German shell in the battle of Vlamartinge in Belgium, just before the battle of Ypres. and forgot everything in his life before.
 Trusler. who is from Montreal, says all he remembers of bis twenty-five years of life dates from a day he awoke in a hospital at Shorncliffe. England, and wanted to know why he wasn't at the front He couldn't tell what his name was. nor where he came from. He was told that he had been entered on the hospital lists as Private Howard Trusler, and 1t was by that name that he went back to the front and joined another Canadian artillery company. only to have his left leg shattered by a shell and be sent back to an English hospital. When convalescent he was sent back to Montreal, where his papers showed he came from.
 His relatives had been notified, he
 
 meet the Scandinavia, the ship on which he had sailed. but when his uncle greeted him the soldier told him he didn't know him. When he reached Bonaventure station, in Montreal, his parents met him. but got the same cold reception. He was taken all over the city to his old haunts, but he knew none and had to begin all over making acquaintances.
 When he went to war he was engag- ed and on his return was taken to see his fiancee.
 "I couldn't remember ever having seen her" said Trusler, but if I wrote some of the letters she received from places I had been, I guess I was all right as a lover"

LARGE PART OF ROADS
 IN U. s. UNEMPLOYED.
Only About 10 Per Cent Good, Say Officials of Highway Association.

Only 10 per cent of the 2,24O,OOO miles of public roads within the bor- ders of the United States are classed as improved roads," This is the state ment recently made by officials of the American Highway association. a body which announces that 1t has no other object in view, immediate or remote, than the improvement of the public roads of this country and whose na- t0nal character is attested by a mem bership drawn from every state in the Union and almost every sphere of off cial and commercial activity within the United States.
 Last year the expenditures for road construction, including the estimated cost of convict labor. made by states, counties, townships and districts az gregated some S235,O0O.O 900 against $79.- 100000 ten years ago, according to the figures kept by the association. But it is clear, it points out, that so far the surface has scarcely been scratched and that comparisons with the rest of tho civilized world demonstrate how far behind other countries the United States Is in this respect
 At the last annual convention of the associa ton. held in Atlanta in 1914, no fewer than forty-seven road organiza- tons were represented. and among the 5000 delegates were twenty-two state highway commissioners or engineers. Its highest aim. 1t announces, is to weld together in service all of the good roads organizations of the coun- try, national, state and local.
 A point of timely interest in its prop aganda is that 1t aims not only to make easy the ways to market, to open new and better highways for the postal service and to bring sparsely settled neighborhoods together for the culti vation of all the arts of peace, but at the same time its work Is of the great est importance in providing precau tionary avenues for necessities of war provided, unhappily, war should come

 The Farmers Club.
 Why not organize a farmers club in your neighborhood and do it this month? The Extension Division of the College of Agriculture in coopera- tion with the Department of Agricul- ture is very anxious to have five hun dred farmers clubs organized this year. It will be fine thing for social purposes; it can be made to help the rural school; it can make the neigh borhood better place to live in; it will help neighbors to get together in the growing of perishable crops and in the marketing of such crops. Send for circulars with constitution and bylaws for a farmers club.

COUNTING THE WORLDS COST,

In these days of nearly worldwide conflict between nations, it is reas- suring and comforting to know of one campaign in which all civilized na- tions are allies in a common cause. The neutrality of science has been a subject of frequent comment, espec- ially during the past year. The fight between the human race and disease is carried on without regard to diploma tic agreements or international bound ary lines. Probably the only organi- zations or institutions in existence today which are carrying on their work regardless of warning nations are those engaged in scientific work. of these, the International Office of Hygiene in Paris is perhaps the most conspicuous example. The British representative, Dr. R. w. Johnstone, now acting as official epidemiologist of the international office, has just issued report showing the progress of plague, cholera and yellow fever throughout the world, as shown by the reports received and tabulated at the Paris office. This report is complete for 1913, the 1914 material having not yet been completed. According to this report, bubonic plague prevailed to some extent in 1913 in almost every part of the world, there being as yet no evidence that the present world wide epidemic of this disease, which started about twenty years ago, has begun to subside. A marked decrease was shown in India, where, in 1911, there were S46,S73 deaths from this disease, while in 1913 there were only 217,148. On the other hand, the re- ports for 1914, so far as received, show an increase. Cholera was also less prevalent in India in 1913 than in pre- Vlous years. There were O serious epidemics of yellow fever during the year in any part of the world As the London Lancet we'll says, in com menting on Dr. Johnstone's report, these annual summaries possess more than a passing interest They place on permanent record many facts, the true value of which is more likely to be recognized in the future than at the present time. They will be of service as works of reference to future stu dents of bubonic plague, when the great pandemic now prevailing has spent itself and disappeared. The same remark holds good as regards cholera and yellow fever, both of which may before long, we hope, come to be placed on the list of disappearing dis eases. The time will come, predicts The Journal of the American Medical Association, as scientific knowledge increases and its more thorough prac- tical application becomes possible. when the only knowledge the human race will have of these diseases, which nave devastated mankind since the dawn of history, will be the records of past epidemics. Our knowledge of such epidemics in previous generations IS vague, and is based largely on gen eral statements. Definite records from year to year of the gradual decrease oi preventable disases will be of the greatest scientific and historic value to future generations.

Money "Stifed" Her.

In the January Woman's Home Companion is the story of a very wealthy man who was so busy making money for his daughter that he be- came stranger to her. A crash came and he lost his fortune, only to find that his daughter was delighted at the calamity.
 "What do I care about the old money?' she said. I've been stified with money-I don't know this min ute whether I've a true friend in the world, because I've had so much mon- ey that those who loved me were afraid to show it for fear of being called sycophants, and those who pre- tended to love me did it only because I could give them a good time with the money you've poured out to me. Men who pay me attention-l'm al- ways afraid it's because of the money. It's poisoned my whole girlhood. Weren't We happier when CIV lived in the little old house with just Nurse and Cook, and 1 was the panther under the hall table when you came home? I'm glad, glad the moneys gone. Now you're going to have time for me again, now I'm going to have my ia ther back-not just telegrams and checks"
