Year of christ,s Birth.

History tells us that for 500 years
the Christians had no calendar of their
own, but reckoned the years according
to the customs Of the nations to which
they belonged. The Roman Christians
used the "Anna Urbis Conditlae" or
year of the founding Of Rome, to count
from; others counted from the reign
of Diocletian, calling 1t ''the Era Of the
Martyrs" !" and still others used the
calendar of the Copts of Egypt. In the
sixth century, Denis the Little, Greek
monk living in Rome, made calendar
counting from the Incarnation, the
date of which he fixed at 1853 A. U. G..
So we commonly say that Rome was
founded in 753 B. g. At the beginning
of the eighth century, the venerable
Bede pointed out that this was an his
torical blunder. But no general no.
tice was taken Of his criticism, and the
error has continued to this day. His
tOric facts have enabled modern schol-
ars to determine, without much pos
sibility of doubt, the exact year of the
birth of Jesus and to place 1t at what
we call B. G.

Thouoht Cakes tainted.

Virginia loved to help her mother.
One day her mother was making a
special effort to bake prize cake for
the church fair and Virginia was all
interest. The cake rose beautifully
and appeared to be thoroughly done,
but when removed from the stove 1t
fell fiat and had a sad Streak through
the center. Another cake was immedi-
ately mixed in haste and little Vir-
ginia's eyes grew large as she listened
to her mother lamenting over the first
sad cake that had fallen. The second
baking proved the same as the first,
but the third attempt resulted in a
veritable triumph. Virginia, however,
could not rally from the mornings
tragedy and when her aunt came over
she exclaimed in great excitement
"Oh, auntie, mother made three cakes
and two of 'em tainted"

HOOVER ISSUES REGULATIONS
FOR EXTRA WHEATLESS DAY
AND MEATLEss MEALS.
NO PORK ON SATURDAYS
BUYER OF WHEAT FLOUR MUST
ALSO PURCHASE EQUAL
AMOUNT OF SUBSTITUTE.

Western Newspaper Union News Service.
Washington.-The American people
started on a war bread diet Monday as
q part of war rationing system pre-
scribed by President Wilson and the
Food Administration. "Victory bread"
the Food Administrator calls it. The
reduced rations are asked for the pur-
pose of creating a larger export sur
plus of food for the allies. Curtail-
ment of consumption will be accom-
plished largely by voluntary effort
but force will be employed wherever
permitted under the food control act.
The rationing system, as presented by
the President in proclamation and
by Food Administrator Hoover in
list of regulations, forms the food ad-
ministration's 1918 food conservation
program, of which the chief features
are:
A bakers bread of mixed flour, with
a per cent substitution of other ce-
reals for wheat until 20 per cent
substitution is reached Feb. "a.
Sale by retailers to householders OF
an equal amount of substitute flours
for every pound of wheat flour pur-
chased at the time the wheat flour is
bought.
Sale by millers to wholesalers and
wholesalers to retailers of only 70 per
cent of the amount of wheat flour sold
last year.
Two wheatless days week-Mon-
day and Wednesday-an one wheat
less meal day.
One meatless day week-Tuesday
and one meatless meal day.
Two porkless days week-Tuesday
and Saturday.
Manufacturers of macaroni, spa
ghetti, noodles, crackers and breakfast
foods, pie, cake and pastry will be
permitted to buy only 70 per cent OF
their last years purchases, and are
asked to perform patriotic service
by using substitute flours.
Flour will be sold through the reg
ular channels and in such manner

equivalent share.
The Food Administration will pur
chase for the army and for the allies
as announced recently, 80 per cent oi
the flour output, and out of this store
will fill emergency requirements II
stocks run low in any part of the
country.
Wheat millers are required to pro
duce one barrel of flour of 1876 pounds
from 264 pounds of wheat, which rep
resents IA per cent flour. No patent
of special flours may be manufac
tured, although whole-wheat flour may
be made as usual.
Hotels and restaurants will bt
classed as bakeries and will be re
quired to serve the new Victory bread
State food administrators will b'
permitted to designate the wheatlesi
meal in each state. Where this is no
done the Food Administration re
quests that the evening meal must b.
observed as wheatless.

Oriuin of ASSASSIN"

The drug hashish or Indian hemp,
for which Egyptians will pay such
high price, has given us our word,
assassin" These desperadoes form
ed originally a secret society in Per-
sia, relates London Chronicle, in the
eleventh century, members of which
were under a vow of blind obedience
to their chief. They were called upon
to perpetrate the most atrocious deeds,
and before these ruffians were sent
out to perform their grewsome tasks
they were given hashish, by which
they were thrown into kind of &c
stasy or intoxication. Hence they were
called "Hashishin," meaning hemp
eaters. The word became part of
Western languages, but was changed
into "assassins."

Where Canes Are Popular.

There is probably no country in the
world where the use of walking sticks
is so general as in the United King
dom. Practically every man carries a
cane, not only in the towns and cities,
but also in the country; and, in addi-
ton, there is large demand for walk
ing sticks for women, these being used
extensively in the country and at sea-
side resorts, but not to great extent
in the cities.
The winter months are always rainy
and even during the summer the wealth
er is often very unsettled, so that the
use of umbrellas is also unusually
great. These conditions have made
the manufacture Of umbrellas and
walking sticks an important industry
In the British isles.

WESTERN CANADA'S
CEREAL CROP
One of the Best Ever Harvested.

The cereal crop of Western Canada
for 1917 was the most valuable one
ever harvested; the returns from all
classes of live stock have been equally
satisfactory. The wool clip was not
only greater than in any previous year,
but the price obtained was double that
Of 1916, which in turn was almost
double that of the year before.
AS was the case in 1915 and 1916,
many farmers were able to pay for
their land outright with the proceeds
Of their first years crop. Further evil
dence of the prosperity of Western
Canada is shown by the fact that one
in every twenty of the population is
now the owner of an automobile. If
the farming community alone is taken,
1t will be found that the proportion OF
automobile owners is still greater. The
bank clearings of the leading cities OF
Western Canada were consistently
higher than they were in the corre-
spending periods of 1916, and then they
were higher than the year preceding
In Winnipeg $500000,000 more was
cleared in the IL months ending No
vember 30 than in the same months
year ago.
The entry Of the United States into
the war has strengthened the bonds
between that country and Canada. We
are now working together for the
same ends. Those who are not fighting
are promoting a greater production of
foodstuffs. In this connection Western
Canada offers q wonderful opportu-
nifty. Not only can larger quantities
Of staple foodstuffs be produced, but
the cost of production is lower and the
remuneration greater than where land
is more expensive. Notwithstanding
the fact that the price of farm prod
ucts has doubled during the past three
years, there are millions of acres of
arabic land in Western Canada which
can still be bought at low price.
Western Canada has an enormous
acreage prepared for seeding to whea,
in 1913 1t is larger than in 1917, and
will probably surpass the record area
put into crop in the year 1915, wher
the largest crop ever known in the
West was harvested. The year 1915
should also see a further increase In
live stock activity.
Farmers have been investing consid
erable sums in cattle; the high price:
secured for wool and mutton have
opened the eyes of Western farmers tt
the possibilities Of sheep, and such was
the demand for breeding animals las
fall that 1t was impossible to meet i
adequately; the campaign for greater
hog production is expected to yield al
increase of between % and 30 per cen
in 1918.
Those who are contemplating coming
to Western Canada cannot do bette
than come early in the spring whel
they can put in crop and harvest i
in the fall. In this way they will b,
able to achieve something that will
not only be Of great benefit to them
selves, but also to the great cause TO
which the Allies, including the Unite'
States, are now fighting.-Advertise
