cooperate to prevent any invasion Of
Manchuria by the Germans, according
to Thomas SammOns, United States con

Canadian, Consumption

sWy Z talk Of hardships and sorrow here in Can
|. w ada. We have had hardships, and God
knows too much Sorrow but we have concep-
ton of what is going on in France at the present
time. Production is absolutely essential and the
most commanding duty Of the government is to see
that it is carried on but if we waited for further
exemptions and our men were decimatcd and de-
stroyed, what kind of answer would it be to say
we had increased production?
So spoke Sir Robert Borden the other day in
answer to an influential deputaton of farmers pro-
testing against the cancellation of all exemptions
for farmers sons of the ages of twenty to twenty
two. The following day an Order in Council was
passed providing for the registration of Canadian
boys Of nineteen Up to the age of twenty-five no
exemptions are being allowed now for those men
in Class One who are physically fit. This is the
governments answer to the wholesale granting of
exemptions in Quebec.
These drastic changes in the working of the Con-
scription Law indicate that the Canadian govern
ment considers the situation to be extremely
critical Otherwise there would be no interference
with the youths on the farms Before these changes
were announced Canadian farmers were at loss
TO know where to find the labor for the harvest
of 1918 To take their nineteen year-Old sons is
to make difficult situation seem almost mpos-
sble of solution. Naturally there have been pro-
tests, but for the most part Canadians are willing
to accept their Premier's judgement that this fur
ther sacrifice is mperatively required Canada has

incidentally, it is worthy of note that signs are
not wanting of a spirit in Quebec. The French
province is submitting to the inevitable with a
somewhat better grace. The new regulations will
hit that province hard.

CARGO OF SUPPLIES
GOES TO ARCHANGEL
Red Cross Sends Relief Ships for
Allied Soldiers and Civilians
in. Starving Russia.

A relief ship was recently sent from
this country TO Archangel by the
American Red Cross with 1900 tons
Of drugs, food, soap and Other sup
plies for the use Of the Allied soldiers
and needy civilians In that part Of
Russia. The vessels cargo was val
ued at s1,5l1,233.
Later, another ship was dispatched
carrying 200 tons of similar supplies
furnished by the American Red Cross,
the total expenditure for the two ship
ments amounting to over 100000
Major e. r. Williams of Baltimore

sion, but recently attached TO the
Army Medical Corps, heads the medi-

[ constituted the greater part Of the
cargo sent from America.
While the chief concern OF the ex-
petition was providing comforts for

/ that part of the world, all efforts were
. bent to get relief to the Russian sol
d,ers who were returned from Ger
man prison camps at the rate Of about
1900 week. The condition Of these
7 men was pitiable. 1t has been esti-

The need of prompt relief for the
Inhabitants of towns along the coast
of the White Sea and on the kola
peninsula, many of whom were facing
starvation, was found to be impera-
tive. Scurvy had broken out among
the people at these places, adding TO
the general distress.
The towns TO which the relief ex-
pendltion was sent are virtually iso-
lated from the outside world because
of the treacherous coast line, shifting
sand bars and uncharted waters. An
exceptionally early frost, even for that
part Of the world, ruined the harvests,
which were expected TO improve con-
! dltions. Statements. printed In Rus
sian, explaining the work of the Red
| Cross, were distributed among the in
habitants.

TRIBUTES FROM
SECRETARY BAKER

Following a tour Of South England,
Secretary OF War Baker made this
comment on the work done by the
American Red Cross for our boys:
"These are the things which count
The American Red Cross is to be con-
graduated on the way In which 1t Is
looking after our boys. II is doing
fine work"
Following his return from France,
Secretary Baker wrote this note to
the American Red Cross In London:
II left London so shortly after my
drive to Winchester that i had no
early opportunity TO thank you for
the courtesy of the touring car which
you placed at my disposal for the trip.
on this trip TO Europe have received
fresh and noteworthy evidence of the
astonishing efficiency Of the American
Red Cross operations in France and
England. have been delighted TO see
how much the American Red Cross
has done to weld hearts Of the allied
people together.

20 Produce Disorders-Glve
Hogs Minerals.

New corn Is not a safe grain for
work horses and mules, ms II Is liable
20 produce collie and indigestion. II
II must be fed, feed only the dryest
ears, not more than four or six ears
ut each meal. A small quantity OF
salt should be sprlnkled on each feed.
A better and safer method is TO feed
half corn and half oats.
II green corn is fed TO hogs, the
safest plan Is TO feed the entire stalks
with the ears on the stalks. Feed
small quantities at each meal; spread
the corn out In lhe feed lot so that
each one will get Its full share.
Keep a full supply Of wood and
coal ashes, burnt wood and corn-cob
charcoal under cover in the feeding
pens, SO the hogs can help themselves.
These minerals are useful in correct
ing the acldlty of the green fodder and

VALUE OF ACRE or ALFALFA
Result OF interesting Experiment Con-
Quoted on Kansas Agricultural
College Farm.

Experiments conducted on the Kan
sas agricultural college farm have
shown that 100 pounds of green alfalfa
cut and fed in dry lot, was equal TO
100 pounds Of corn. Six pounds OF
corn was necessary to produce a pound
Of pork, so the 10 pounds Of alfalfa
produced 10 % pounds Of pork. Esti'
mating that during the season an acre
Of alfalfa will yield 20,000 pounds OF
green hay, this, II cut and fed green
with corn, would make 1000 pounds OF
pork. Figuring this pork at the pre-
vailing price will give some Idea OF
the value OF an acre Of alfalfa.

next. 1t is desired to secure the
services of men from Is to As years
of age for this course OF instruction.
The Department Signal officer of the
Northeastern Department, 25 Hunt
ington avenue, Boston, Mass, has au-
thority from Washington to request
the induction by local board of suit
able candidates and to have them
sent to Burlington, Vermont, by the
United States government.
The basis Of pay for all men is the
same as in any other branch Of the

made arrangeme nts with the Univer-
sity Of Vermont to domicile this class
in the quarters Of the University and
they will be subsisted in the dining

A HEATED DEBATE.

Attorney A. A. Greenberg and P. S.
Mcmahon engaged in a war Of words
Saturday evening in the Hotel Bron-
son, that attracted considerable atten-
ton and for a time gave indication
that something more serious might
occur. It seems that the lawyer was
retained by one of the owners of a
! barbershop in McMahon's building,
who sought to gain his rights, and the
| two other members Of the firm were
notified to appear in Lawyer Green,
berg's office at a specified time. The
two others secured the services of At
torney M. H. Camp and failed to abide
by Greenbergs order. Constable Win
! kle then went to the barbershop with
& writ of attachment accompanied by
Greenberg. Then the fun began. Nc
Mahon put up a bond of 1000 for his
friends and the place remained open,
Some very ungentlemanly language is
reported to have passed between the
men.

What the housewife can do to help
win the war is described in the fol-
lowing interview with Mrs. E. w. w.
Hayward of Hartford, state chairman
Of the National Housewives League,
made public through the Connecticut
Council of Defense:
TN no other war has the housewife,
as such, played so vital a part as in
the present struggle. The vision Of
Mrs. Julian Heath, national president
of the Housewives League, resulted in
a national campaign for signatures to
a food conservation pledge, months
before Hoover was appointed food
administrator. Our part is now to try
to keep this pledge constantly in the
minds Of the women of the stale, in
structing them also how they can best
carry out this pledge without impair
ing the health and efficiency Of the
family. We can help by cooperating
with the County Farm Bureaus and
Home Economic leaders in the extern
sion of their lectures and CLASSES.
THAT there is need of emphasis on
the elimination of boarding is evident
by the testimony of a dealer who said
lately that he was selling more white
flour than ever and that persons who
usually bought by the bag were buying
by the barrel. This is in exact orpo-
sition to the spirit Of our Hoover
pledge, and will defeat the plans Of
the government to feed our army and
allies and bring confusion TO our ere
mics. No woman should have signed

BY Rev. Luke F,itzsinons.

Rev. Luke Fitzsimons, permanent
pastor of the church Of the I'M
maculate Conception, Waterbury,
prints this testimonial to Father Bar
decks character:
Here in Waterbury he has labored
hard in season and out Of season
for the past six years and his sue
cess has been marvellous to the cor
dial admiration of his fellow priests
and the joy and gratitude of his
pariShioners. AS a fnancier,
considering the small number of his
flock and the meager resources at
his hands, his record stands out I'M
riva1led. He promoted the spiritual
welfare of his people by his beauti-
full example, earnest and wise coun-
sci and kind, unremitting vista
tons. He established and fostered
religious and charitable societies,
held missions and special devotions
at becoming intervals, and in gen
eral spent himself for the better
ment of the people. ST. Cece1ia's
parish will hardly ever look upon
his like again. He was most
priestly priest, respected by every
body, loved by his own parishioners
and especially his brethren of the
clergy. I feel sense of personal
