COUNTRY OF VAST WEALTH
Good Reasons Why Germany Regards
Ukrainia as Enormously Rich
Prize Of Warfare.

The states of Ohio, Indiana, Illinois,
Michigan and Wisconsin have COM
bined area about equal to that of the
new Ukrainian republic. Putting it In
another way, Ukrainia, according to a
native writer, is as large as the Ger
man empire with the state of Illinois
annexed, says the American Review
of Reviews.
Mere area in itself signifies little,
but the extent Of land surface compris-
ed within the limits of the new repub-
lie Of Ukrainia contains the most fer
tile parts of the old Russian empire. It
is known as the "Black Earth" belt,
and has been not only the granary Of
Russia, but the greatest granary of
eastern Europe. In 1914 one-third of
Russia's total farm products came
from the "BIaek Earth" belt, which is
really Russia's wheat belt. Ukrainia
produces so per cent of Russia's crude
sugar and 50 per cent of her refined
sugar. The tobacco production of the
region is relatively as large as that Of
sugar. The Ukraine supplies about
so per cent of the Russian live stock
output.
Not only is the Ukraine a great
source of agricultural wealth, but in
mineral resources it has been to Rus
STA what the northern provinces Of
France, now overrun by the Germans,
have been to that republic OF coal it
has produced 20 per cent Of the total
portion Of pig iron, and of steel nearly
as much. Manganese, mercury, petrol
cum, peat, phosphorite and kaolin are
other important mineral products Of
the Ukraine.

HAD TO HAVE THOSE CARDS
Canadian Soldiers cheerfuiIy Risked
Their Lives to Recover Deck on
Person of Fallen Conrade


Captain McWilliams of the Canadian
forces, told an after dinner story the
other night to illustrate how large
amusement looms in the life of sol
der in the trenches.
A game of bridge was in progress
just below the firing step in front
line trench, when the alarm was given
to repulse a raid. Sergeant Mcbride
snatched up his rifle with one hand
and gathered the cards with the other,
and in less than minute every man
in the trench was over the top.
Half an hour afterward, when it was
all over, the captain was scrutinizing
No Mans Land through the periscope,
counting up the losses, when he
thought he recognized the PROSTATE
form of Sergeant Mcbride, and it in
stantly occurred to him that the only
pack Of cards in that section was in
the sergeant's pocket
Upon explaining the matter to his
comrades, all of whom were bridge
fiends, three of them at once volunteer
ed to go out and recover that pack of
cards, which they did. Men have re-
ceived the Victoria cross for less ha-
zardous exploits.

When one speaks of chewing gum

New Writing implement.

A writing implement, composed of
mixture of wax and finely ground
pumice stone, containing particles of
ink has been invented by William C.
Geer of Akron, O., to take the place
of ordinary and fountain pens, cray
ons and all other writing implements,
says the Popular Science Monthly. As
the body of the new writing device is
composed of mixture of wax and
pumice stone, which is easily worn
away when rubbed. against paper
surface, the inventor claims that the
cells Of ink intermixed with the wax
and pumice stone will also be liber-
ated, giving a uniform supply Of ink.
The device Is made by mixing the
wax, pumice stone and ink together.
When 1t is heated to the proper tenn
perature 1t is suddenly immersed In
cold water. This chills and solidifles
the wax mixture, producing a body
having a cellular structure, each cell
being filed with ink.

Match Box Is Tricky.

Do this trick before mirror and
you will actually surprise yourself. AL
though exceedingly simple, it is very
perplexing to the onlooker. Take an
ordinary match box and lay 1t fiat on
the back Of your hand. At your COM
mand 1t will ''sit up" or ''lie down.. -
Moreover, 1t will accomplish the task
slowly or rapidly at your own will.
No threads. wires. wax or weights are
used. Nothing but your hand and the
match box. Try it as you read this !:
When placing the box on the back
of your hand have the drawer open
just the slightest bit. Push it togeth-
er with the fingers of the hand that
is placing the box. This will cause
bit of the loose skin to catch in. The
box will lie perfectly flat until you
push your closed-up fingers into your
palm. The slightest strain will tight
en- the skin and the little box full of
matches will gradually rise up in the
most amusing manner.
! To have it '1ie down." merely relax
the pressure. As you do this not a
muscle or vein will move. Only the
slight "pineh feeling" Of the skin will
keep you from fooling yourself.

Pioskin Makes Good Leather.

Leather is scarce and in the coun-
tries that have been the longest at war,
the scarcity of leather is possibly caus-

wasted and they make the finest kind
of leather. 1t has been tested and
found to be highly satisfactory for
shoes, and fancy leather goods.

opposite cutting blade is pivotally at
tached to this slide member, and at it's
extended rear part to an arm pivotally
attached to the shank of the bayonet.
The effect is such that when the barbed
wire enters the mouth of these blades
it engages the slide members, and so
that member is moved rearward by the
resistance and the edges of the blades
close and cut the wire.
