Horses Jumping Powers.

7OrSc'S jumping FOWeTS.
If the reader will carefully measure
out 80 feet an idea of q horses capac-
ity in this direction will be gathered.
Such a distance a steeplechase horse
called Old Chandler is reported to have
covered at Warwick many years ago !;
and there is more than one apparently
authentic record of horse clearing
over seven feet in height. The scene
of such an exploit was at the Phoenix
park, Dublin, and the horse was called
Turnip. The animal belonged to Sir
e. Crofton, and the duke of Richmond,
then lord lieutenant Of Ireland, wa.
gared $500 that this height could not
be cleared. A wall of the requisite di-
mansions was built, and when finished
Turnip was ridden at it. He did what
was asked of him in perfect style, but
it happened that his grace, not know
ing that the feat was ready for per-
Torrance, was not looking when the
jump was made, and Turnip was there
fore ridden over it again, not only sue
cessfully, but easily.-London Tit-Bits.

FASTENED RUSSIAN COLLAPSE

Mans Efforts Show Worth.

Character is best seen In the pur-
suit of its own ideals. Left to him
self, man finds the level Of his own
thinking. His leisure hours are the
index of his inner worth. It's what a
fellow tries to be that shows his aim,
declares Grit. It's easy enough to
move along with the flowing tide. It's
struggle against odds that tells of
character. The world may never see
your effort because 1t is engrossed in
Itself. But you will find the response
of effort in increased strength and
multiplied power. Even If you never
succeed in realizing an ideal, you are
better man for having made the at
tempt.

Many Americans Enter Canada,

Three and half times as many I'M
migrants from the United States into
western Canada arrived during the
first nine months of last year as dur
ing the same period in 1915, according
to figures furnished by the department
of immigration. The number of such
persons for the first nine months Of
the year 1915 was 1927; for 1916, A.
022, and for 1917, 29,918. The amount
Of cash and effects brought In by these
immigrants does not show the same
proportlonate increase for this year
over 1915 as did the number of per-
sons. The total of cash and effects
was $2,156,S76 for 1915, s3,31o,943 for
1916 and $5,914,033 for 1917.

ing wheat in anticipation of higher
prices later on, in an announcement
that all stocks of wheat in excess of
requirements until new crop is avail
able, must be marketed by May Is, or
action will be taken by the department
to commander the surplus. The gov
eminent is holding a strong hand upon
the wheat situation, in order to carry
out its program of shipping 2O,00O,00O
bushels monthly to the allies out of
stocks which under normal conditions
would only provide for requirements
up to next harvest.
Flour.-The situation is practically
unchanged, but there are some indi-
cations that the position of substitutes
will be markedly improved within the
next few weeks. Millers generally
have installed equipment for the man.
ufacture of substitutes to carry their
distribution of wheat flour, and with
the easing off in the transportation sit
uation, which will permit of securing
raw materials, the market is coming
ltno an easier position. Reports by
the food administration show that the
output of corn meal for March aggre-
gated 100000 barrels, as compared
with 10000 barrels in October, with
a present capacity for grinding 9,O0O,-
600 barrels in 80 days, which will serve
to relieve an embarrassing situation
regarding supplies, and correct abnor-
NAL price conditions when proper ia
cilities for distribution are provided.
Feed.-There has been a good de-
mand for millfeed but the market has
lost some of its slack. There is a sharp
demand for all that can be produced
and the mills cannot offer much of
it outside of their immediate territory
A great many in the trade figure that
the market will slow up as soon as the
weather grows warmer and pastures
show little more development with
grass coming along as a result OF the
weather. At teh present time demands
for all kinds of millfeed are not as
: strong as heretofore.

But the French who have come in
contact with the marines refer to them
as 'the millionaire soldiers" due to
the fact that the marines are con
stantly dividing their pay with the
French women and children who need
help. In many instances marines have
been known to give up their entire
months pay to purchase food for des
titute French families.
And the marines are proud of both

Amsterdam.-Un a supplement-
AIRY legal political treaty between Ru-

try must indemnify German consular
officials for all damage suffered by
them during the war or done to con

in Rumania as a result of German

Within six months after the ratifi-
cation of the peace treay, Rumania
must redeem notes issued by the

not put them in circulation against

Another clause provides that FL

all damage suffered by them on Ru.

military measures of one of the bel.

so applies to losses which Germans
suffered as shareholders of undertake

Rumania also will indemnify neu

on Rumanian territory as result OF
German military measures.
Pro-German Spirit Wits.
1t has been learned from well
