seemed to become accustomed
to the sound of heavy artillery
and to pay it little attention.
Different birds called to give
warning of the approach of
airplanes. They evidently
heard the sounds of the planes
before human ears could dis

Storks became interested in
the airplanes and would some

HOW THE CANNERIES
HAVE CANNED.

/ When with our entry into the
war the government called for
more canned foods, how did
the country respond?
Our farmers. always patriot
ic. raised more vegetables than
ever, and the canning plants
took care of them. They form
ed the link between the pro-
duction of the farmer and the
needs of the government.
The amounts which the gov
eminent required for the army
were stated in terms of millions
of cans.
For instance, the 1918 toma-
to pack was $50 million cans,
of which the government took
As per cent. In order to pro-
duce this quantity the canning
plants put in many improve
ments which conserved labor
and increased output.
And when the harvesting of
the tomatoes outrun the farm
ers' possibilities. in many 10
calities townspeople turned in
and helped save the crop.
Wisconsin is the region for
peas. and produced the greater
part of the 1918 pack of 2SS
million cans. of which the gov
eminent took % per cent. The
amount of corn canned was
nearly the same, and the gov
eminent took a like portion.
Canned baked beans and
canned fruit were produced in
quantities and the fish Gamer
les ran day and night.
Farmers and Gamers must
work equally hard this year,
for after the army is demobil-
lied the starving nations of
Europe will require all that we
can spare for them.

This Canadian regiment was
named after Princess Patricia
of Connaught, who has just as
good claim as any other prin.
cess to be godmother to a regi.
ment. A regiment is judged
more by its record than its
name. And this regiment
needs no alibis.
Eight of the original mem
bers are left. When England
went to war she had no army,
and the Germans were advan-
cling on the Channel ports. A
few British enthusiasts went to
stop them-also some Cana
dians, including the Princess
Pats; but there were more than
eight of them then.
In the Ypres region, along
the Messines ridge, back and
forth through villages that
were tagged with numerals to
identify them as outposts that
must be held or taken, the hell
ish carnival ragged. And eight
returned to tell of it.
The blood of those who died
is on the heads of British poll
ticians who for ten years pre-
ceding the war resisted every
effort made to put England in
to a state of defense. Such
politicians atone by proxy for
their sins. The bill is paid by

screened by those clouds of
areoplanes that we talked
about but did not build. Are
we to repeat this policy of pro-
crastination, to pay for it later
with the blood of those who
