Der 25-6-7-S. at Peoria. Illinois.
In the past Idaho has given little at

object than TO show the products Of
dry farm sections and bring the merits
OF dry farming TO the attention Of the
people.
Some OF the citizens of the state
are interested in the subject aud have
tried to get the people to make a dis
play and so far but little has been
done. Whether anything will be done
his year remains 20 be seen, but IL is
evident that if anything is done il will
have to be done quickly.
The Agricultural Review, published
at Enid, Oklahoma. is the official pa
per Of the congress, and ia its last is

ed by agricultural colleges, expert

cations.

pate in all the deliberations and acts
Of the congress, except the election
of permanent officers. Only mem
bers in good standing can vote on

"NEW" WEAPONS REALLY OLD
Asphyxiating Bomb and lncendiary
Shell outgrowth Of Missiles En-
ployed Long Ago by Chinese.

Many Of the "new'' weapons pro-
duced by the world war are really very
old. Thus the asphyxiating bomb is
an outgrowth Of missile employed
long ago by the Chinese. Instead Of
deadly chemicals, it contained some
substance that emitted a nauseous
odor, accompanied by sitting smoke.
Later this device appeared in Europe
and was known by the inelegant but
expressive name of "stink-pot."
Another Chinese war method paved
the way for incendiary shells. They
invented a rocket, later adopted and
widely used by the Saracens, which
fired kind Of ball having claws or
hooks that would catch hold to the
side of a building and set fire to it.
These balls were made of petroleum
and inter, which became famous in
the later ages as Greek fire.
The German device of throwing PEI
troll upon an enemy by means Of a
pump was used long ago, when an at
lacking ship often spouted flames at
the object of it's assault. This plan
was reserved for close quarters, and
frequently resulted in the destruction
of the vessel so attacked.

Peat Bous of Ireland.

Ireland possesses 25,OO0,OOO acres OF
peat bog-one-seventh the total area
of the island. Much of this peat is
concentrated in the center Of the coun-
try, in the Bog of Allen, but there are
also large tracts in other localities.
To utilize this peat, not merely for
domestic use, but also for power pur-
poses, is a problem which has exer-
cised the minds of prominent Irishmen.
for many years, and the department
of scientific and industrial research
appointed a committee, with Sir John
Griffiths of Dublin as chairman to in
vestigate the whole question. Some
successful attempts have already been
made In ireland to deal with the SUBJ
stance on a commercial basis, but any
efforts to utilize the deposits must al
ways have regard to three circum-
stances-that peat contains and re-
tains a large amount of water; that,
compared with other fuels, it has a
low calorific value, and that it is ex-
tremely bulky, involving a high cost
of carriage.

HOW MATCH FIGURES IN WAR
Scarcity Of Brimstone- Headed Sticks
Results In Special Controller Be-
Ing Named In England.

No commodity has had more adven.
lures than the match. The announce
ment of the appointment of special
controller all to itself is fitting cli-
max to checkered history, says the
Manchester Guardian. In the memory
of our grandparents the cumbrous
.Prometheans" that sought to displace
flint and steel were high-priced lux
ury impossible to the poor.
In the memory of our fathers Henry
George, for one, condemned the match
as one of the articles that were "too
cheap" He had in mind, of course,
the sweating and the poisoning OF
workers that for too long went to the
making of cheap matches.
Yet the popular insistence on cheap
matches turned out of Office British
chancellor of the exchequer and coined
an immortal epigram; and the superb
ority of the matches that can normal
ly be bought in this country over the
flimsy, lifeless, expensive sorts SOLD
across the channel under government
control has given the free-trader one
Of his most homely and incontestable
arguments. The British match must
now suffer control.
Such matches as there are will be
fairly apportioned at fixed prices. We
do not doubt that there will be enough
to 60 round, for, faced with famine
in some districts and with loose
matches at 80 for penny in others,
people have already begun to make
that economy in consumption which,
with no greater sacrifice than a little
care, might easily save half OF the
matches burned.

LAFAYETTE Flying Corps.

Considerable confusion exists in the
minds of many persons about the dill

This famous aeronautic body was

corps, which is the present ofilclal
designation.
