BLEAK AND BARREN COUNTRY
Montenegro Surely Seems a Fitting
Cradle FOR the Bold and Warlike
Race Living There.

From Podgoritza we retraced our
steps to RiyelSa, on the uppermost arm
of Lake Scutari and then followed the
road up the bold face Of mountain,
with splendid views back over the
lake, writes William Warfield in the
Century. Before we reached the path
over which our road was leading we
were in several inches of snow, for
March was only half over. Even here
in this seemingly inhospitable region
is scattered village, with few ter
raced fields, looking down toward Sou
tart, whence the ancestors Of the build.
ers were driven to take refuge In the
hills. The view here Is broader than
any other have yet described, From
sn0w-coyered heights one looks to
right and left over serrated ranks of
peaks, cold in their icy garb. Directly
In front there is a bold sweep of snow
less hills. warm by comparison despite
the barren bowlder-strewn slopes, and
beyond lies lake, violet in the far
distance.
Once over the pass there Is drop
of only few hundred feet to Cettinje.
which lies 1000 feet above the lake.
1t is In another fiat-bottOmed basin, ir-
regularly walled by q steep slope. the
center of Mpntenegrin resistance to
the Turk for five centuries, occasions
ally taken. but never held for long.
Here the deposed Nicholas had his
palace and was surrounded by the poll
iticians Of his little state. 1t is more
pretentious as town than Podgoritza
and weather as community,
The palace Is embarrassing, but the
monastery, over against the mountain,
is fascinating place. 1t is the Vati-
can of Montenegro, the seat of the
metropolitan, the orthodox archbishop
who rules this little flock.

Early in the submarine campaign,
one Of our boats was given coat OF
camoufage, and when the vessel sailed
from its pier in the North river, New
York, the owners sent a photographer
two or three piers down the river to
photograph the ship as she went by.
He took the picture, writes A. Russell
Bond, 10 his Inventions OF the Great
War;" but when the negative was de-
ve,oped, much to his establishment, he
found that the boat was not all on the
plate. In the finder of his camera. ne
had mistaken heavy band OF black
paint for the stern of the ship, quite
overlooking the real stern, which was
painted grayish white. The artist
had fooled the photographer and at a
distance of not more than 200 or SOO
yards.

NEW WHITE WHEAT
INTERESTS MANITOBA
Ripens in Eighty Days and
GrotUs IN Any Climate.

DOUGLAS, Man. Oct A new pearl
white wheat which ripens in eighty days
and is expected to set new standard for
Canadian grains is being successfully
grown near here by W. ]. Whitley. a
Canadian grain scientist.
The wheat, which experts declare is
adaptable to any climate. resembles the
hard Northern wheat, Prize Marquis
but has vitreous white berry of diff
ferent quality. Heads are of medium
size. tapering to a point, beardless and
stand about three and a half feet in
height. 1t Is claimed by Mr.. Whitley
and other experts that the new wheat
will grow in the districts where other
wheat has failed to make proper
progress.
Some Of the biggest wheat crops in
history have been grown this year along
the lines of the Canadian National Rail-
ways in Manitoba and the other two
prairie provinces. but there are some
districts well north where a light dry
soil is found. and II is in this soil that
the newly discovered wheat will flourish.
Important announcement Is expected
soon by Mr.. Whitley on the results Of
other grain experiments which the agrl-
cultural experts of both Canada and the
United States have been watching with
interest Among the discoveries is a
new kind of barley.

WINNIPEG, Man, Oct 4.--Four quarts

the first harvest ever gathered in Red

had not eked out their larders with buff
falo meat and venison the scant harvest
would not have kept them from starv-

An impressive story of a century OF

vest this year. The provincial Depart
ment OF Agriculture estimates the crop
at 47.022.500 bushels. or an average
yield Of i7.5 bushels to the acre. The
yield last year was 40.975.2S0 bushels

SUPREME LODGE, X. p,
CONVENES AUGUST IC

Plans for extension of the order and
assumption of greater obligations for
its advancement, will, according 10 an
nouncement sent out by the officers,
be the central thought at the next con-
vention of the Supreme Lodge knights
of Pythias. This legislative body OF
the order will be convened in Mime
apolis, August 10, the date having re-
Gently been changed from August Bird
by official notice from the supreme
chancellor.
Nearly one million members of the
order in the United States and Canada
are interested in what will be done al
this convention. Among the many pro-
posed changes in the present laws are
those which will, enacted, provide
for admission to membership at
eighteen years Of age instead OF
twenty one; life membership; changes
in funeral benefit laws; and national
tuberculosis sanatorium for members
OF the order.
While representation Of each domain
is based upon Pythian population, I'M
der the statute each grand domain must
have two SUI me representatives.
Some have as ANY as five. This
method OF selection gives true repre-
sentation of the order and provides a
method by which the supreme body is
influenced only by conditions prevail
ing in all parts of the country.
The order has made phenomenal
growth during the last year. The gain
in membership for 1919 is reported to
be over 10000 There has been much
activity in the uniform rank and it is
expected that over 10000 men in uni
form will attend the national encamp-
ment held in Cleveland in July.
The insurance department report
shows an increase Of protection
amounting to a gain OF over s1,V0OOO
last year making total OF over si03.-
Coo, 900 OF protection provided by TINS
branch OF the order. During ths first
four months Of this year the member
ship was Increased over 5000.
The knights OF Khorassan. known
as the play Ground Of Pythianism.
has more than doubled its membership
in the last Two years.
