JAPAN FIFTH IN POPULATION,

Japan has been growing in popula- ton since, the war witt Russia at q rate mrarable with Gerrnanys, in the generatoin just passed. The cx- pansion of territory following the war, contributed some millions, so that aggregate for greater Japan. as TOW officially declared, IS 71,S93,07S.
 But Japan proper contains 5s,s56,- 295, making her fifth in population among the worlds nations-following china, Russia, the United States and Germany, in order. The density is even greater than in Holland or Eng land. And particularly interesting is the statement of the census bureau that the males are in excess-1021 14 for every 100 families. That, of course, is contrary to the general rule except in the colonies, territory where the stage of pioneer development has not been completed, or in some of our western states

c.iAHPAGNE DISTRICT.

The Champagne district, where thu French are pressing their offensive i. the subject of the following war geog. arph puietia from the National geog raphic society:
 While Champagne no longer exist. as province or department of France its independent existence under its own counts having come to an end al the beginning of the fourteenth cen- tury, the name is generally applied to that territory which now includes the departments of Ardennes, Aube Haute Marne, Marne and parts of the Seine et-Marne, Aisne. Yonne and Meuse-an area some 1S0 miles long and 150 miles broad.
 Champagne derives its name from the Latin campus meaning coun- try of plains, and referring to the extensive stretches of land in the vi- cinity of the three important cities of Rheims, Chalon and Troyes, the last named having been the capital of the ancient province.
 During the twelfth and thirteenth centuries the Champagne country was famous throughout western Europe for the fairs held in four of it's cities. These fairs, six in number were held successively so that merchants might travel from town to town throughout the year, thus being provided with continlous markets for their wares.
 'Of ..curse, the product whi, ,ll has made the name Champage so familiar
 all the world Is the famous wine made here. This industry dates back to Roman times, the vine being ex- tensively cultivated in this region as early as the reign of the Emperor Probus in the third century of the Christian era. It was not until the last decade of the seventeenth cen tury, however, that the distinctive sparkling or effervescent wine was discovered or invented by monk, Don 'erignon, who was in charge of the cellars of the abbey of Haut villers for nearly half a century. Perignon is also creited with being the first man to use corks as shoppers for wine bottles.-Exchange

The efforts of the women of Nome toward raising a fund for the Amer. ican Red Cross Society should meet with a ready response from all good citizens and a good substantial sum should reward the labors of those who have interested themselves in the movement.
 Thus far Nome has done practically nothing to assist in the present crisis Other Alaskan towns have already formed Red Cross branches and are taking an active part in preparing for the great struggle in which the nation is now involved.
 In the towns of southeastern Alas a workman are rolling bandages, pack many are making garments, etc., and many are learning the meahods of tending the sick and wounded in anticipation of a possible day when nurses will be badly needed to care for the lads who will shortly go forth 10 battle. Other towns have already offered contributions to the Red Cross fund and one interior city subscribed for Liberty loan bonds to the value of fifty thousand dollars.
 Nome should not be laggard when all the other towns of the terri tory are lending their labor and money toward assisting in the struggle we are facing.
 Pride alone should prevent us from being behind the other cities of Alaska in offering generous assistance to the nation and those who are helping in its defense.
 We have not great deal to give al best but We can surely do as we'll as the majority of Alaskan towns and ii We are not lacking in patriotism as we'll as civic spirit we will do so.
 It fa time of national need; a time when all good citizens should 'V "huh6 tO iadhc SdSIiuCeS TOT tne benefit of the nation and the thing. for which 1t stands.
 It matters not what our opinion about the war and the reasons for our entry may be. Our country is in the struggle and 1t is the primary duty of all to help in any manner posslble-even to the extent of 'mak- ing the Supreme sacrifice if called upon.
 Not many of us will have the op- portunity to fight but one and all can assist in caring for those who will serve the country on the firing lines amidst the smoke of battle and the roar of guns.
 Each and every one of us from the rosy checked child to the venerable bearer of Times frosty crown can contribute something to help the Red Cross care for the injured and dying: to soothe the fevered head, the throb- ing wound and close the eyes of those who have paid wars awful price. This much We all can dp, and should do fl

INQUIRIES ABOUT
new LEGISLATION

The secretary of States department
is receiving large number of inquiries
in regard to matters connected with
the carrying out of the provisions of
the laws passed by the last Legisla-
ture. great many people, even mu-
nicipal officers. apparently not realiz-
ing that with the exception of few
emergency measures the great bulk of
the laws passed by the 1917 Legisla-
ture do not go into effect until 90 days
after the adjournment of that body.
Town and city clerks and individuals
are also making numerous inquiries as
to the two sets of blanks required in
connection with the law in relation to
the sale of dynamite and other eX
plosives which wis passed as an
emergency measure. Blanks are re-
quired both for the having in posses
sion and sale of explosives and these
blanks are sent to the town and mu-
nicipal clerks, although one concern
recently made requisition to the de-
partment for 10000 blanks.
The State department is also re-
ceiving inquiry in regard to the max
ing out of referendum petitions. To
such reply is being made that the
department has never prepared such
blanks. 1t is suggested. however, that
a suitable and legally correct form for
such petitions is contained in the last

Public Safety Circular.

The Maine Committee on Public
Safety is sending out a circular giving
hints as to. the planting of the family
garden, things to keep in mind and a
planting table and a plan for a gar
den.
MANY people will plant gardens
this year for the first time and al
ready there is n call for information
on the subject" says the committee.
This call is being met by the publica-
tion Of great numbers of garden hulle-
tins, circulars and news articles Some
of the advice given may not apply to
conditions in Maine. especially to
kinds and varieties of vegetables and
time Of planting. 1t is the purpose of
this leaf1et to give list of vegetables
and varieties that have been tried and
found satisfactory in quality and
adapted to Maine conditions, a garden
plan and "some things to keep in
mind by those who are planning to
plant !, garden this year"
The things to KEEP in mind" are
given in the circular as follows:
+ "Lani that is usually wet during the
summer is not fit for growing most
vegetables and should not be used un-
less bitches can be made which will
drain off the surplus water.
DO not use piece of land that will
not get less than four hours Of direct
sunlight during the day.
"Plow or spade the land to be used
carly in the spring.
use stable manure if it can be Sc
cured, but if not commercial fertilizer
may be used in place of it.
Grow vegetables that will not only
provide supply during the summer
but surplus to be stored or canned
for winter use
Select kinds and varieties of vege-
tables that will give constant supply
during the season.
PLANT early maturing crops in one
section of the garden so that when the
first crop is used a second crop may be
planted on the same land.
Crops like lettuce and radish should
be planted between hills of other crops
that will take longer to mature.
Many crops are injured by frost
and should not be put into the garden
until danger from frost Is past.
Hot beds or even window boxes in
the kitchen are good places to start
plants that are to go into the. garden
for early crops.
Buy seeds early"
