In this conference, to which every

The assembly, 1t may be added, will

given a chance to enroll as short

will be instructed In the technical as
well as in the spiritual phases of agri-
culture.
As in former years, the meetings will
be addressed by leading church men Of
number Of denominations. OF these

Collapse Of Russia Places the Burden
OF Eliminating the Hun on Shout
ders of the Yanks.

Daily Ii grows more certain that the
world war is to be fought till one side
or the other is PROSTATE. The war
would have been over months ago If
Russia had not collapsed; but with
treason in the cars cabinet and lun-
acy and stupidity pervading the Rus
sian prOletariat, that mighty empire OF
the north became an inert and impo-
tent mass at the mercy of Germany.
And as for Russia, her fate will be
determined by the world congress that
Will write the peace when the war Is
over. 1t will be about the mightiest
job human statecraft ever undertook
and an impossible job unless Germany
or the entente is then as helpless as
Russia is now.
With the western front reinforced
by the millions of veterans Germany
had In Russia, the German people have
become as confident of victory as they
were when the first gun was fired. At
this moment Germany, rulers and peo-
pie alike, feel assured as to the out
come. There is determination to
annex all of Belgium, all of France
now held by the German armies and
all of the possessions of Belgium and
France in Africa. Discussion is now
going on in the German press as TO
the amount of the money indemnity
the enemy shall pay. Already Russia
IS carved by the German sword. And
II Germany shall succeed in her pres
ent intentions she will be as complete
mistress of the world as il now is
known as the Rome of julius Caesar
was mistress Of the world as it was
known on the eve of the Christian era.

CRADLE SONGS ARE ANCIENT
Words often Seem Meaningless Jum-
BILE; Melody Always Within Com
pass of Home Voices.

Almost all popular cradle songs are
very old, some of them so old that,
were they not familiar, they might be
considered the veriest curiosities Of
literature. Through all the changes
of language they have held their own
upon the lips and in the hearts of the
people. From mouth to mouth they
have come down through the years
with an irresistible swing of rhythm
and patter and jingle of words till
they seem to have been rather nat
ural growth than human invention.
In all the melodies, observes a wri-
ter, there Is a certain likeness or
rhythm with n national, l might say,
temperamental difference Of movement
and meter from the slow assured
major of the Germans to the wild plain
by the short accented notes or the
weirdness of the Hungarian with its
sudden changes.
That these old songs should have
embodied and retained the character
istics of the people among whom they
originated gives them an Importance
which their crude words and the ele-
mentary character of their melodies
scarcely seem to warrant. The words
often seem mere meaningless jun
BILE, the melody is always within the
easy compass of home voices. No
doubt both express, in some supernally
wise way, the one unalterable senti-
ment of maternal love.

The Fall Garden.

The gardener who is onto his job
can make his plot of ground yield crops
until late in the fall, according to the
department Of horticulture Of NJ. A. c.
The secret lies in knowing what crops
to plant. Bantam corn can be put in
as late as July 1; potatoes late as
June, beets and rutabagas, June 10 to
July 1 Chinese cabbage, July to IS !;
radishes (summer and winter), tur-
nips, endive, spinach and leaf lettuce,
July 10 to August /. Paintings of late
celery, cabbage and cauliflower, should
be set during the first two weeks Of
July.

x-Ray Reflectors.

Mica has been found an excellent
material for concentrating mirrors for
Mays. Glass will not do, because,
smooth as it is, 1t is too rough for the
extremely minute X-rays, which are
much smaller than light waves. Glass
diffuses the X-rays, much as a rough
surface diffuses light waves, but it was
found that the surface Of mineral crys-
tails were of the requisite smoOthness
for rejecting X-rays, and of them mica
is the most adaptable, being readily
split into sheets.

Of the Russian mobiles of 100 rubles.
