Leisure Periods

BEHIND THE BRITISH LINES IN
FRANCE, June ga special depart
ment attached to British Headquar-
tiers has been created for the purpose
Of experimenting agricultural opera
tons in the areas evacuated by the
Germans.
Work in the fields by soldiers is
largely voluntary. AS details of SOL
diers leave the trenches for the rear,
they are invited to spend their leisure
in agricultural work, which in the
spring air and sun of France, is one
of the pleasantest recreations imagin-
able. Soldiers who have once lived
on a farm or have done farm work
opportunity, and it is surprising how
many city men are eager to take up
work in the fields, even preferring it
to sports such as football and field
athletics.
The soldier-farmers are well pro-
vided with horses, usually artillery or
transport horses from the reserves.
The British Agricultural Military staff
has gone so far as to secure its sol
dler-farmers cultivators and machin-
cry of British models which are ia
miliar to them. Seeds and necessary
fertilizers are also provided in abund-
ance The army will cultivate some
thing over 10000 acres this year in the
liberated Somme area alone.
On cloudy days, in fishing for black
bass, bright and light colored flies are
most productive of results.
