In "The Island Of Sheep" by Cad
mus and Harmonic, is much truetalk.
"You are not" says Lady Guidwillie
"like Doris Cranlegh, l hope, who
thinks that the war has been fought
in vain because she can't get under
housemaids?" There are too many of
us who think the war has been fought
in vain because it takes a week to
get fountain pen repaired, or be-
cause gasoline costs 33c a gallon, or
because the zippy tailors are getting
$165 for "busincss" suit
"This," said Lady Sevenoaks, "is a
very foolish world. When I was a
young girl Democracy meant the
Liberal majority, and was chiefly men,

the Labor party discovered the word
and it came to mean the Poor Now

speaker likes and agrees with. If we

1t is not known who Cadmus and
Harmonic are, but the attempt to write
Amercanisms shows that they are Eng
lshmen. HE was wont to remark" the
authors say tthe italics-ours-sh

authors are with American specch).
that he would back Martha to talk
down a Democratic caucus, and that if

We have not finished reading the

Treating Sore Shoulders

What is the best remedy for sores
on the shoulders, backs and necks Of
horses, due to the collar and harness
chafing these parts?
First, remove the causing agent,
the collar and harness, when that IS
practicable. Second, if the animal must
be used, Sc ethat the collar and har-
ness fit properly and are kept smooth
and clean. If the harness can be chang
ed in any way to keep it off the sore
spot, this should also be done. Third,
keep the sore spots clean, but wash
as little as possible. It is good to wash
and rub dry a sound shoulder, to keep
it from getting sore; but sore
shoulder should not be washed. Dry
powders or astringent liquids should
be used on the sores, but ointmentS
or salves should be avoided. The sores
NAV be busted with thoroughly air
slaked lime, or a mixture of equal
parts of boracic acid, tannic acid and
iodoform may be busted on the sore
spots. Or, one ounce each of acetate
of lead and sulphate of zinc may be
put into one pint of water and applied
to the sores twice day, or immediate
ly after removing the harness. The
bottle should be shaken before using
this miXture.-Progressive Farmer

cents, an unusual yield and unusual
price.

con Thursday the freshman and
sophomore classes met again in order
to talk to the president in regard to
Crossland's case. Grassland was far
from being the only man who cried
'Bolsheviki' and the president of the
freshman class, Cadet Turner, told
the authorities that Grassland should
not suffer for something that six hum
dred other men had done. They re-
quested that Grassland either be
granted new trial or be released en-
tirely. This request was refused and
the freshmen and sophomores left
and prepared to pack their trunks,
leaving on the afternoon train for
their respective homes.
'sThe walkout could have hardly
been more orderly affair. Every
thing was carried out with remark
able smoothness. As soon as the au-
thorities realized that the boys
meant business they attempted to
give so-called ten-day passes so that
it would appear as if holiday had
been granted instead of walkout.
Very few of these passes were ac-
cepted, however.
"Friday the two upper classes were
granted permission to go home un-
til a settlement could be brought
about. The board of trustees were
scheduled to meet on Saturday and
three of the students remained be-
hind to present our grievances to
them in person. We desire the rein
statement of the freshman and soph-
omore classes, together with Cadet
Grassland; that proper readjustments
be made in regard to several other
cadets who were punished on several
other occasions; that thorough in

March is the active month for all
garden seed sowing, therefore fore
word on certain fundamental points
is not out of place.
l. A well prepared seed bed is
vitality important. Freshly turned
sol, will not make a successful gen.
eral garden when such soil must be
used before plowing break the soil
by disking, blowing, disking again
and narrowing.
2. Plant the garden with view
toward future consumption, giving
only small places to lettuce, radishes
and other vegetables which must be
eaten Immediately. Devote larger
spaces to potatoes, corn, beans, etc.
g.. In planting radishes, lettuce,
etc., make several sowings at 2 or
3 week intervals to distribute periods
of ripening.
4. Sow garden peas, caulifiower,
early cabbage, onion, celery, spinach,
parsley, lettuce, radish, beet, aspara-
gus, carrots, parsnip, satisfy, Kohlrah,
tomato, pimento, eggplant,
Irish potatoes, cucumber, squash.
