VIM. Short brought a winter radish
to the Review office this week which
would furnish all the radish the larg-
est family would care to eat at one
setting. It is Black Spanish winter
Tadish and measures just twenty inch
es in length. The seed was soWn
May 31st and if Mr. Short had left 1t
in the ground a month or two longer
1t would have made quite good sized
radish. Not many are acquainted with
this excellent winter vegetable. For
winter use the seed should be soWn
from the middle Of July to the middle
Of August and sown in warm, sandy
loan for best results. Seed should be
sown in drills from eight to ten inches
apart, and thin plants to two inches
in drill. For winter use, store in sand
in the cellar. For our own use we
prefer the round rather than the long
radish.

THE STOLEN BAEY.

Old Mazda was a gypsy woman.
about IS years old The Gypsies
were encamped in woods an a
farm where lived one boy, Alcestis,
and two sisters, Rose and Kate,
and their mother and father Old
Mazda had sen Kate wheeling Rose
on the lawn. Rose was a beautiful
child and was dressed handsomely.
Old Mazda wanted the clothes.
So one night when everyone was
sleeping old Mazda crept up to the
farm. She went to the room in
which little Rose slept and opened
the window reached in and got her.
In the morning little Rose was
missing and her father, suspecting
the gypsies of stealing her, started
a search. He called in the police
and they went to where the gypsies
were encamped. The surrounded
the wagons. Some of them
searched for the lost baby. 1t was
found in one of the oldest and dirti-
est wagons. The gypsies had taken
all of its pretty clothes and put
old and very dirty rags on it. They
had also stained her hands and
face so that they were the same
color as the gypsies. Rose was
taken home and the gypsies were
driven from tOwn.-Margaret Wynn

Mike.

Mike was not rich and still he
was not poor His father made toys
in the toy shops. Mike did not
want toys. He wanted to live in
the country.
One day his mother sent him to
the country to visit his Uncle Billy
When Mike got there he first in
.spected the barn then the chicken
coop, the pig pen and last of all
the house.
The next day he went out and
played in the field. In the after.
noon he watched his uncle dig pc
tatoes. Mike said, Uncle l want
to be gardener"
His Uncle Billy said, Come on
and help me dig potatoes"
Mike said, "Oh, see the butter
fly!" And away he went.
The next day he went to play
with his cousin who lived with his
Uncle Robert.
When he went home he told his
father and mother that when he
grew up he would be a farm. His
father told him that the next sum
mer he could work for his Uncle
Billy. So when school ended the
next spring, Mike went to the coun
try to work for his uncle. He found
that farming wasn't all play.
Since he was not Stacker h

summer was over his uncle said

camels were well trained, so we did
not have to chain them. In the
night, we were awakened by hear
ing noise outside the tent. We
did not hear it again, so we did not
think anything about it and went
back to sleep. But later in the
night we were again awakened. On
getting up we found that our cam
els had been taken, and in the
shadow of clump of shrubbery,
near the tent was the figure of a
man. He rushed out and attacked
US. We discovered that there were
two other men in another clump of
bushes near by. They came out
also and helped their leader. We
soon found that the leader was the
man in the caravan that had passed
us during the night. He supposed
that we had money and other val
tables. They kept track of us
when we supposed there wasn't
anybody near, We fought desper-
ate!y and left the men unconscious
on the desert by the oasis. Then
we folded our tent and started on

Houu This War Is Different
From Other Wars.

Many distinguishing characterlS-
tics of this war are not founded up
on entirely new ideas, in some
cases the underlying principle has
been known for years, and adyan-
tage has been taken of it in past
wars. For instance, trench warfare
has been known for a long time;
part of the Civil War was fought in
trenches. But this is the first war
to be fought almost wholly in such
been known under various forms,
for many years. Never before,
f! however has it been used to such
an extent as now.
High explosives are used in this
| war to a hitherto unheard of ex-
tent. The range of modern artil-
! lery surpasses by far that of guns
used in previous wars. 1t seemed
that the limit had been reached in
the German twenty-mile guns used
in reducing Antwerp: but now ap-
pears the sixty-mile gun used by
the Huns in bombarding Paris.
One must not think, however,
that the Allies are behind the Ger
mans in the effectiveness of artil-
lery fire. The pieces used on the
Western front by the Allies are
French guns; and they are really
superior to the German weapons.
Letters and diaries found on Ger
man prisoners show the terror
which the artillery fire of the AL
lies has inspired.
Something's which played very
! humble part in everyday life have
found a new use in this war. Be
fore this war the use of barbed
wire was confined chiefly to farms
and ranches; now hundreds of
miles of it is stretched between the
opposing trenches, as an obstacle
to attacking troops.
| Some prominent features of form
er wars have been dropped in this
one. Cavalry used to play an i'm.
portant part in the science of war
fare, but in this struggle the &C,
tivity of hOrsemen has been re-
stricted to very short period at
the beginning. At the beginning OF
trench warfare, the military import
ance of cavalry ceased.
Other features of modern war.
fare were not used in former times
because they were considered inhu
man. Such is the case of poison
gas, an innovation of the Huns.

in use which are absolutely new
