TIE RED CROSS NURSES or EUROPE
ARE GIVING TOASTED
CIGARETTES TO THE BOYS

To anyone who doesn't know of the
wonderful advances that have been made
In the preparation of smoking tobaccos
in the last few years it may sound strange
to speak Of toasted cigarettes.
Strictly speaking, we should say ciga-
rettes made of toasted tobacco; the smok-
ers of this country win recognize it more
readily by its trade name, LUCKY
STRIKE "-the toasted cigarette.
The American Tobacco Company are
producing millions of these toasted ciga-
rettes and these are being bought IN
enormous quantities through the various
tobacco funds conducted by the news
papers of the country and forwarded
through the Red Cross Society to the boys
in France.
This new process of treating tobacco
not only improves the flavor of the tobacco
but it seals in this flavor and makes
the cigarettes keep better.
The Red Cross nurse is always glad TO
have a cigarette for the wounded soldier,
as, in most instances. that is the first
thing asked fcr.-Adv.

The value of the training and the

Pity for UnmarTsd

When we consider the ordinary lives
of unmarried men, we must give them
our pity, for they have deprived them
selves OF anxiety, says w. L. George. in
Harper's Magazine. Nearly all earn
as much as they need. and nearly all,
In their isolation and purposelessness,
learn to need all that they earn.
Their work done. their pockets full
enough. there is no mortgage on their
time, no compulsion as to their resi-
dence. no demand that they should in
terest themselves In the occupations
or ideas of wife. or child or friend
in anything. indeed. except themselves,
a limited field for ones interest. for
soon ore can know ones self too well,
and intimacy may breed contempt.
Marriage releases you from the I'M
real by giving you many real things
10 think about. by satisfying your need
for association with the solid earth.
That need satisfied. ycsI spirit Is free
TO wander in the unreal In abstract
thought, In artistic desire, instead of
being bound by the continual aspiration
of the unmarried TO the real things
they do not possess.

Even more than In Germany is the
army part Of the daily life of the
Swiss.
With this spirit of militarism a part
of the daily national life there is moth
ing of militarism in the attitude of the
people, because all the preparation and
system of training is purely for de-
tense and not for aggression. At the
same time 1t is believed that the train
Ing given boys and men is of the great
est service in raising the standard OF
the Swiss manhood and in improving
the health Of the whole population.
Nothing is wasted In this land Of
thrift, and the old remark of the hum
orist that nothing escapes the Chicago
pork packer but the squeal could not
be truthfuIly said of the Swiss efforts
toward efficiency. 1t is doubtful IL
even the squeal would be wasted.
The Nobel Peace Prize for 1917 has
been awarded TO the international Red
Cross committee in Geneva. This COM
mittee has, since the outbreak of the
war, thanks to the SWISS and untirlng
efforts of its president, Gustave Ador,
lately elected federal counselor and
chief of the political department of
the Swiss Confederation. achieved such
a remarkable and enviable success
that Switzerland today is generally re-
ferred to, as Mr.. Stovall, the United
States ambassador to Switzerland,
himself said, as the 'sGood Samaritan"
The most remarkable of all the vari-
Gus humanitarian undertakings in the
world war, organized by this commit
tee. is the agency for prisoners of war
at Geneva. The huge amount of work
performed by this institution and
other benevolent organizations in
Switzerland is reflected by the latest
report given out by the Swiss postal
authorities. This shows that since the
beginning of the war until the end Of
October, 1917, 334, 772,OS1 letters and
postcards and 62,210.645. small parcels
have been taken over and reforwarded
to the prisoners of war of both bel
ligerent groups held in the various
countries.

INCREASE IN WESTERN
CANADA ACREAGE
win Prove a Big Factor in Win
ming the War.

Reports to hand indicate that West
ern Canada has a vastly increased
acreage ready for crop this year over
last year. The splendid open fall OF
1917. gave better opportunity or fall
blowing than for some years. Work
in the fields was almost continuous
until the end Of November. In fact, in
the neighborhood of Pincher Creek,
Alberta. there was sufficient mild
weather in January of this year to
permit farmers to pillow, and mlny
took advantage of it. A great many
Americans owning land in Canada
moved up last year. and this has also
helped to increase the acreage. They
came into possession of the land at
prices varying from $500 to $1,000
an acre, and with the proven yields
Of wheat running from twenty and as
high as fifty bushels per acre, with a
set price Of 1921 a bushel, they could
join production and patriotism to-
gether with big margin Of profit.
The Post-IntelIigencer of Seattle,
Wash, gives very conservative state
ment of the agricultural development
and opportunities in Western Canada.
In It's issue of December Id, 1917, it
says
"Since the beginning of the year
American emigration into Canada has
been greatly stimulated according to
the reports of the Dominion authors
ties, and has been almost entirely made
up of farmers attracted by the fertile
and comparatively cheap wheat lands.
Whatever may be said Of wheat
culture as a profitable avocation in
ordinary years, since the beginning OF
the war It has offered advantages
quite beyond the usual opportunities.
War has doomed the price of wheat
until the farmer now receives around
So for his product at his granary.
Average crops. according to the adap-
tation of soil and climate are from
II to 25 bushels to the acre. Even
the minimum crop, at 50 per bushel,
brings I'm these war times a reasonable
profit. Before the war wheat culture
was fast being abandoned by farmers
who worked inteIligently for results
on the right side of the ledger. It has
been the popular crop for new coun-
tries, but when the pioneers settled
down TO business it was generally
corn. hogs. cattle and diversified farm
ing that brought the profits. Iowa and
the Dakotas in turn, as their praiFies
became settled. mortgaged the land on
wheat culture and afterwards paid of
the mortgages with corn and hogs.
''War is thus bringing temporary
encouragement to wheat farming.
Many of the ranchers of Manitoba Sass
katchewan and Alberta laid away
$4,000 to $4,000 In the banks last fall.
1t may be pointed out, however, that
the growing of wheat is not the only
inducement which Is leading settle
ment to Canadian lands. Low taxation,
favorable agricultural climate, and
profitable prices not only for grain but
for hogs. cattle and all forms of farm
produce all contribute their share
toward the rapid settlement of the fer
tile lands of Western Canada. '--Ad-
