WHAT Is 4 PACIFIST?

The Rev. James NJ. Gillis of the
Paulist order, speaking in New York,
gives this definition:
Jesus Christ is the Prineeof Peace;
but Pontius PLATE was the Prince of
Pacifists. He washed his hands, as
they do, of the right and wrong of the
whole matter. But while he was wash
ing his hands with water he was
drenching his soul with blood"

Roll of British Military
Heroes Includes Names of
Scores of Canadian Birth

While the conflict in South Africa
marked the beginning Of Canada's Of
fetal participation in foreign wars of
the mother country, individual Cana
dianS have won fame in practically
every struggle in more than century.
The roll of British military heroes in
cludes the names of scores of men of
Canadian birth. One of the greatest of
these was Gen. Sir William Fenwick
Williams, who gained renown as "the
hero of KarS."
The defense of Kars in Armenia by
General Williams during the Crimean
war was gallant exploit. Great Brit
ain, France and Turkey were then al
lies, opposing Russia. General Will
liams, with $4,000 men, was shut up in
Kars by a Russian army of 10000 in
fantry and 10000 cavalry, commanded
by General Muravieff. The siege COM
menced June IS, 1856, and continued
until November IS. The defenders
had provisions sufficient to last three
months, but ammunition enough for
only three days of fighting, but Cen
eral Williams was determined to hold
the place. When their supplies had
been almost exhausted and after suf-
fering terribly from the ravages of
cholera, General Muravieff decided the
time had come to attack the sOrely
tried garrison and ordered an assault.
Feeble as they were, the defenders Of
Kars beat back the Russians. Mura-
vieff then determined upon policy Of
watchful waiting and. after a month.

capitulated.
He was made a baronet, with the
title of Sir William Fenwick Williams

Newfoundland Contributed
10000 Men to Aid British

Newfoundland, though her popula-
ton does not exceed that of a popu-
lous English industrial city, has sent
10000 men to fight the battles Of the
British empire in this war. It is a
magnificent record, asserts a writer,
and exactly what one would have ex-
pected from a country which sent its
fishing ships to help in the destruction
of the Great Armada.
1t was in 1888 that Sir Humphry Gill
bert took possession of the island in
the name of his. ''most gracious lady,
Queen Elizabeth; it was only five
years later that La Felicissima Ar
mada left Coruna for English waters,
so that Newfoundland had an early Op-
portunity of establishing a tradition
for gallantry which Newfoundlanders
are so splendidly vindicating in the
present war.

of Newfoundland recently celebrated
the four hundred and twentieth an
niversary of her discovery.

Mary Putnam Jacob and
Elizabeth Blackwell Were
the First Woman Doctors

The first woman admitted in the
Ecole Medicine, the famous Paris medi-
cal college, also the first to become a
member of the New York Academy of
Medicine, was DR.. Mary Putnam ia
cObi, who was born in London 70 years
ago, says an exchange. She was the
daughter of George P. Putnam, the
New York publisher, and studied in
several American schools before TAX
ing her degree in Paris in 1871. Two
years later she became the bride of DR..
Abraham jacob, a native of Germany,
who fled that country when charged
with high treason for participation in
a German revolutionary movement,
and settling in New York, became one
of the most distinguished of American
physicians.
DR.. Mary Putnam jacob was promi-
nent in the profession as professor and
hospital physician until her death in
1906.
The first woman physician in Amer
lea was Dr. Elizabeth Blackwell, a ma
tive OF England, who received her de-
gree of M. D. in 1S49, and later re-
turned to England to practice her pro-
feSSion.

Arizona Is Feedino Herself.

An "All-Arizona" luncheon given a
the recent state fair at Phoenix, Ariz.
furnished valuable proof that the Cop
per state is able to live up to her slo-
gan, adopted when war was declared,
"Arizona will feed herself" The
luncheon was prepared and served by
the home demonstration agents of the
State university, cooperating with the
United States department of agricul-
ture; it was an agreeable surprise to
the people unfamiliar with the agricul-
tural resources of the state. Products
of all but two of the fourteen counties
were represented in the menu. The
foods provided included grapes, dates,
figs and other fruits potatoes, carrots,
tomatoes, peas, milk-fed chickens, Mar
icopa butter, bread made from local
wheat and milo maize, olives, peanuts
and honey. Coffee from Hawaii was
the only substance grown outside the
state given place on the menu.
For months the county agricultural
agents have been making a special
drive for more and better home gar
dens and the use of homegrown
cereals. The home demonstration
agents have concentrated their efforts
on demonstrating the use of kaf1r corn
as a substitute for wheat flour and Of
corn sirup and honey as a substitute
for cane sugar.

These Are the Things We
Must Do and Do Well, to
Defeat the KaiSer'S War

It will be well for us all if we
pause now and then and consider again
what, precisely, are the tasks con-
fronting us in this world war, writes
Thomas w. Lamont. No one could
have put them more clearly than Pres
ident Wilson. Here is what he said:
''These, then, are the things we must
do, and do well, besides fghting-the
things without which mere fighting
would be fruitless:
''We must supply abundant food for
ourselves and for our armies and our
seamen not only, but also for a large
part Of the nations with whom we
have now made common cause. In
whose support and by whose side we
shall be fighting.
1--WE must supply ships by the hun
dreds out of our shipyards to carry
to the other side of the sea, subma-
rines or no submarines, what will
every day be needed there, and abun-
dant materials out of our fields and
our mines and our factories with which
not only to clothe and equip our own
forces on land and sea, but also to
clOthe and support our people for
whom the gallant fellows under arms
no longer work, to help clothe and
equip the armies with which we are
cooperating in Europe, and to keep
the looms and manufactures there in
raw material; coal to keep the fires
going in ships at sea and in the fur
naces of hundreds of factories across
the sea steel out Of which to make
arms and ammunition, both here and
there; rails for wOrnout railways back
of the fighting fronts; locomotives and
rolling stock to take the place of those
every day going to pieces; mules,
horses, cattle for labor and for mill
tary service; everything with which
the people Of England and France and
Italy and Russia have usually supplied
themselves but cannot now afford the
men, the materials, or the machinery
to make"

Doctors in all parts of the country have

POINTERS FOR THE
POULTRY KEEPERS

A high-water mark has been reached
this winter in price of poultry prod
ucts, especially eggs. This phenomenal
price has caused hundreds of poultry
men to put forth an extra effort to in
crease their egg production, writes @.
S. Anderson of the Colorado Agricul-
tural college. In the majority of cases
this effort has not brought the desired
result, and here is the one big reason
the pullets being forced did not have
the maturity and age necessary for
winter laying. Their feed, care and
housing may have been above question,
but their handicap of being hatched
late could not be overcome.
The spring is the normal season Of
the year for hens to lay, and if they
lay literally, then they cannot be
forced to heavy production in the win
ter. The fall and winter is natures
natural resting period. For this rea-
son world-breaking records can never
be expected from young hens.
Pullets will always be the main force
in producing winter eggs. AS in the
case Of the hen, however, winter lay
ing is not natural, and their tendency
toward spring laying must be offset by
Matching them early enough to reach
the degree of growth and maturity
necessary for egg production in the
fall. Pullets that have not sufficient
development to begin laying before the
severe winter weather starts will al
most invariably not lay before Feb
ruary or March.
Many of the puzzling problems that
confronted the poultrymen this winter
will be avoided next year if the hatch
ing is done three weeks to a month
earlier. 1t should be remembered that
the time Of the year the eggs are laid
is far more important than the number
laid.

Prizes for Largest Contributions.
In one shipment Of poultry and eggs
5O5 contributors pooled their produce.
Most of them were small producers,
contributing only few chickens and
two or three dozen eggs. To stimulate
interest $25 prize was offered for the
largest load, $5 for the largest single
amount produced by the contributor,
50 for the heaviest hen and $5 for the
heaviest rooster. The heaviest hen
weighed eight pounds and the heaviest
rooster ten pounds. The largest single
offering sold for 5000, while the
largest load brought $132.25. The whole
shipment amounted to $1,9562O. It
went to Tennessee point and was the
first cooperative carload of poultry
shipped from the state.
The Carroll county plan may well be
extended to other places, in the opin-
ion of officials of the United States de-
partment of agriculture III change of
county agent work. The department
will endeavOr to aid any community
which desires to try the plan. Nine
county agents from nearby districts
met representative of the depart
ment at Carrollton to study the meth
DDS used, with the intention of putting
them into practice in other counties.

some Thlnqs the Food Law Did.

SOnG nIH9S IHS TOOO Law OIur
Reviewing the ten years in which the
federal food and drugs act has been
in operation, the annual report of the
bureau of chemistry, United States de-
partment of agriculture, says the law
has done much to safeguard milk I'M
ported from Canada or shipped in In
terstate commerce to control the traf-
fic in polluted oysters and practically
to stop the traffic In decomposed
canned fish; to lessen the shipment Of
decomposed canned beans and shell
eggs; and to decrease the manufacture
of foods from refuse materials, CORE
spondingly improving the sanitary con-
ditions in food factories.
Ten years ago, the report says, much
of the baking powder and gelatin and
some of the confectionery was contain
mated with small quantities of lead or
arsenic. This IS not the case today.
The coloring of canned peas with
copper and the use of number of dan
gerous preservatives have been sup
pressed. The act also has made 1t
possible to control number of other
practices more or less dangerous to
health.

Change New Zealand Time.

At present standard time in New
Zealand differs from Greenwich time
by eleven and one-half hours. This
time was adopted in 1868, says the
Scientific American, before the present
worldwide system Of zone time was
introduced. The Wellington Philosoph-
ical society is now agitating the ques-
ton Of making New Zealand time ex-
actly twelve hours in advance OF
Greenwich time, thus conforming to
the regular hour zones, and also secur-

The principal effect of the recent
announcement that the British gov

has been to indicate scarcity OF
