Washington, D. c., March 26.-An-
other contingent of Knights of Column
bus auxiliary chaplains and field Sec
retaries have left to take their places
on the battle front of France. The
time of their going, their point of
embarkation and their destination can
not be made public, but they have
gone on a mission which should be
dear to the heart of every Catholic
and their going marks a definite step
in the fulfillment of the promise
which the Knights of Columbus, rep
resenting the Catholics of this coun-
try. made at the time they began
their welfare work in behalf of Uncle
Sans soldiers and sailors.
The contingent is headed by Walter
N. Herman, Knights of Columbus Com
missioner with the American Expedi-
tionary Forces, who returned to this
country several weeks ago to report
on conditions as he had found them in
France and to assist in recruiting a
party of chaplains and field secretaries
for foreign service.
Included in Mr.. Kernan's party are
three women, all of whom will devote
themselves to office work in the Paris
headquarters of the Knights of Co.
lumbus Committee on War Activities.
They are: Miss Rosemary Herman,

fronts them in the same spirit as have

war. They fully realize the hardships
that are before them, but they are pre-
pared to make every sacrifice for the
cause they have espoused Other

ers of all kinds will be kept moving
towards France.
The Rev. Father " M. Egas, of San
Antonio, Tex; the Rev. Father 3.
Marsh, of New York City, and the Rev.
Father Gisleen Halterman, of Santa
Cruz, N. NJ, have gone as Knights of
Columbus auxiliary chaplains. These
priests will join the seven knights of
Columbus chaplains who are now
working in France, and it is probable
that they will be assigned to regi-
mental units by General Pershing, and
that they will establish Knights Of Co.
lumbus recreation buildings in those
camps in which they are located.
The secretarial force which Mr.. Ker-
nan is taking abroad is composed of
men above military age, who are CIV
ing up their private affairs that they
may devote themselves to this work
The sacrifice they are making is tre-
mendous, but only men who are will

hearts and souls are in the work are

Adventures Not Wanted.
1--WE have no use for adventures or
for men who see in this the opportu-
nifty to visit the war zone without par
ticipating in the fighting" says Col.
P. H. Callahan, chairman of the
Knights of Columbus Committee on
War Activities. 1--WE want men who
are executives and who are accus-
toned to handling big affairs. The
welfare worker in the present war
must also be prepared to face the
same dangers as those which the
soldiers must confront, and like the
soldiers, they must be willing and
ready to give up everything for the

Flowing in Either Direction.


Because of the toughness of the
stalks and roots from the previous
seasons planting, the blowing Of cane
sugar land requires the heaviest of
farm equipment. The conventional
horse-drawn plow used by farmers
would have little effect If any on the
stumps and roots and soil Of typical
cane-sugar plantation.
For this reason a double-ended pillow
is used on Porto Rican sugar planta-
lions for preparing the soil for a new
planting, that is to say, they can be
operated equally we'll in either direc-
ton. The motive power for the pillow
is furnished by two portable steam en-
gines, one at each end Of the field,
which pull the pillow back and forth by
means of wire cables.

Poles Express Gratitude to Pope
Benedict.-Rome, Feb. 19.--What a
really enthusiastic letter is that
which has come to the Vatican to
thank the Holy Father for his serv-
ices to Poland since the opening of
his reign. Here is part of the letter
addressed to Cardinal Gasparri by
Msgr. Dalbor, Bishop of Gnesen and
Posen:
eve Poles, attached by all the
fibres of our heart to the Holy See,
and filled with deepest gratitude to
the august Pontiff, know now better
than ever in these days full of riot
and horror how to appreciate the
clemency and the paternal goodness
shown to us with such magnanimity
by the common Father of all.
Gas long as one single Polish heart
beats we shall never forget the sub
in his famous exhortation of August
1917 directed to the chiefs of the bel.
ligerent peoples, in which he asked
that in spirit of equity and of jus
tice they would examine the questions
relative to the countries forming the
ancient kingdom of Poland, for which
it's noble historic traditions and suf
ferings, particularly during this war
must justly conciliate the sympathies
of the nations"
His Holiness felt deeply touched al

BARBERRY ERADICATION DAY,
MAY 4, BEGINS MINNESOTA Of
FENSIVE AGAINST WHEAT'S
E0E

Minnesota and the federal govern
ment have mapped out campaign for
the complete destruction of the COM
mon barberry plant which is the
natural ally of black stem rust of
wheat and other cereal crops which,
in 1916, robbed Minnesota's farmers
of about 3O,OOO,OOO bushels of wheat.
The first move in this campaign was
the recent action Of the Commission
of Public Safety declaring May 4 as
Burberry Eradication Day. On that
day all patriotic citizens of the state
including the boys and girls of the
schools, will be asked to make spe-
cial effort to find and destroy all COM
mon barberry plants in their several
communities.
This action was taken at the sug-
gestion of E. M. Freeman, dean of the
college of agriculture and head of the
division which treats with plant
diseases.
The common barberry is known to
harbor the rust itself and to be one
of the chief sources from which &C.
real crops become infected. There
are two common forms-the green
and the purple. They grow from four
to eight feet tall. In the spring,
spores of the black stem rust from
wheat stubble are blown into the air
and fall on barberry leaves in the
vicinity. The rust develops on the
barberry leaves from early in May
until about June Is. The rust spores
produced are then carried by the wind
to the wheat fields and to other &C.
reals often causing the loss of tens
of millions of dollars.
Care should be taken in attempting
to eradicate the common barberry
not to disturb the Japanese barberry
which does not harbor the rust it.
