German Schooling.

German schooling has proved antag-
onistic to cooperation, although de-
handing unity of action through mass
obedience. 1t has failed to foster real
cooperation, for cooperation Is a
method by which persons of their own
volition and by no compulsion may
work together tremendously writes
Winthrop Talbot in the Century Maya
zine. Only when training and school
ing are the common privilege of all IS
that state of civic development posi-
bic which permits society to become CO.
operative in IT'S action. In other words,
Il sociplized society becomes more and
more possible only as all individual
members acquire each the widest
vision, and thus the power to cooper
ate tremendously.

The Mystery of Love.

Love is the great mystery of life.
1t may be the growth of years, months
or an instant, says the Christian Her
aid. Man sees a million beautiful
faces he hears a million sweet voices !;
he meets a million women with flowers
at their breasts and light in their eyes
and they do not touch him. Then he
sees the one, and she holds him for
life and death. She is no nobler, bet
ter or more beautiful than We're those
he passed by, and yet his world is
empty without her. AssureGly there
is far more than fashion ia this uni.

To CURB u" BOATS
"Sea IitneyS" Suggested for At
tack on German Bases.
Canadian Naval AirpIane Fighter,
Home to Recover From ShrapneI
Wounds Expresses an Opinion.

Theorizing about war conditions has
grown quite as tireSome, no doubt, to
the people who read newspapers as it
for them. Yet, now and then, you
meet a man who theories from the
facts of experience and knowledge and
who points something out that gives
foUG for thought. Such a case, it
seemed to several of us, when a quiet
little chap, son of Il Canadian million
aire, told us his view of the war in
its present stage, a New York CORE
spOndent of the Cincinnati TimeS-Star
writes. His brother was killed at the
Marine and he himself is home to re-
cover from shrapnel wounds received
some thousands of feet above 4 town
on the Belgian coast.
THE outstanding fact just now"
he said, lis that the German U-bOatS
are doing pretty nearly as much az
they were expected to do and that we
have no effective defense against them.
The Germans are almost justified in
believing that they are on the way to-
ward starving England into suDmis-
sion. If we don't find Il new and sue
cessful way to combat the U-boatS the
situation in England will soon be very
critical. Of course, | fancy way will
be found. But it must be something
entirely new in warfare. For my part,
l am convinced that success can be
obtained only by the apparently des-
perate undertaking of assaults by sea
upon the U-boat bases. 1 say 'appar-
entity desperate BY any known or
tried method such assaults would be
simply useless and suicidal.
THE German harbors are mined,
melted from end to end and fortified
with tremendous shore batteries OF
heavy and aircraft guns. How can the
bases be attacked? Well, Of course,
that will be settled by some one else
than |, but | have heard Il theoretical
plan of attack proposed by one Of our
naval men which made a great impress
sion on me. He said we must build
thousands of small submarines-some-
thing like the sea jitneys' which man
ufacturers have talked abOut-and 90
into the German harborS with swarms
Of them. at the risk of losing ninety
nine out of every hundred boats and
crews. Barrage fire and bombing have
been the new and successful things in
land fighting.
This officers proposal is for some
thing like an undersea duplication Of
this plan of attack. Most of the little
boats would be lost, no doubt, but most
of them would succeed in doing ma
tcrial damage with one or two torpe-
does Nets would be blown away. mines
exploded, guard ships sunk and such
other Discrimination of the harbOr de-
lenses accomplished as to give the big
ships a chance TO complete the work.
Yes, it's true that a man would hardly
need to worry about his return trip
il he went in on one Of these little
boats. 1t would be work for volun-
teers. But the volunteers would be
plentiful enough That l am sure Of.
"If such attacks promised to win
the fight against the U-boats. men
would be willing to 90. It would be
enough for them to know that they
were striking the sea murderers at
their home, and that some of them
might possibly get back

fuls. Each pig should be dosed sep
arately if the best results are to be-
obtained. Castor oil should always be
given with oil of American wormNred.
Other laXatives are not satisfactory.
Dangerous to Drench Hogs.
Drenching hogs is dangerous, as
they are liable to get the remedy into
the lungs. With sufficient assistance
pigs may be held the mouth kept open
by means of couple of loops of wire
or rope, or leather straps, and the
medicine given in a tablespoon or Il
large kitchen spoon. By this method.
though it is troublesome, one may be
certain that each pig gets his proper
dose. After dosing with the above
mixture pigs may be fed and watered.
Repeat the treatment in ten days.
Change Pastures Frequently
Healthy hogs become infected with
iAAA'HAAiAtAl WI no AAOAAi lttiis W uttA dtsil
soil which have been infested by the
droppings from infected hogs. Free
quent change of pasture is one of the
best means of reducing worm infesta-
ton to a minimum. Hogs. however,
should not be allowed to run at large
on open range. as this fayors the
spread of hog cholera.
Swine can be raised when they are
confined in limited quarters If the
quarters are kent clean, but they will
do much better and stay in better
health If they have plenty of pasture.
Divide the pasture into convenient
areas, so that the hogs can be shifted
from one pasture to another. This
not only provides fresh pasture, but
affords an opportunity TO dislnfect
the pastures by blowing and reSeedins
or by exposure to the sun and weather.

ADD TO OUR MEAT SUPPLIES
Quickest and Cheapest Way Is TO In
crease Poultry and Egg Produc-
tlon-Eat Less Meat.

The quickest and cheapest way OF
adding to our meat supplies is to in
crease poultry and egg production. To
double this production next year will
give US 6,500,000O00 pounds of meat
food in the form of poultry and eggs.
BY having this amount of poultry food
for domestic consumption we will eat
less pork and beef, and can send al
most that many pounds of meat to Eu-
rope. We cannot increase any Of the
meat animals as rapidly or economical,
ly as poultry.
