A black walnut tree once planted
will take care of itself. 1t needs no
pruning or spraying. Furthermore,
the product is not perishable and can
be kept and shipped when and where
the prices are the highest. In rs
years the tree is easily worth 5000
to $500 for timber alone. With the
strong interest in the airplane indus
try and the great boom bound to fol-
low at the conclusion of this present
war, the planter of black walnuts
will reap a fortune, for his wood is
absolutely essential. For the prac-
teal side, a we'll cared-for orchard
of black walnuts at the age of ten
years is estimated to give gross re-
turn of 5000 and net yield of so

Wheat more than six feet in
height was grown at Great Bidlake,
a Devonshire farm, which is entirely
worked and managed by woman's
labor. The farm was in very poor
state when the women took it over
early in the war, but today, says Mrs.
Mildmay, wife of Colonel Mildmay,
who is member of parliament for
one of the Devonshire divisions, it is
producing the best mangels in the
district. The hay crop was excellent,
the horses are in first-rate condition
and not a weed is to be seen. The
success of the "all-woman" farm is
not a little due to Mrs. Mildmay
herself, who has actively interested

equipment OF the men who enlisted
In the War for the Union and of the

and there is every confidence that
upon the field OF battle Iowa soldiers
will maintain the proud record OF
tho Hawkeye regiments OF half cen.

In the days OF 81 there were no
aeroplanes, no submarines, no crawl
ing land forts, no deadly gases to
combat. It is harder to realize that
there were no dreadnaughts, no
machine guns, no powerful search.
lights, no cannon which would now
be considered effective in an attack.
Forts were Of wood or masonry, high
