German Nitrogen Output
Exceeds Pre-Wm Figures
CBy Associated Press,

BERLIN, Oct. 27.-Germany is pro
ducing IS per cent more nitrogen now
than in the pre-war years. The output
this year is expected to reach 100000
tons. This fact was revealed in a
statement issued by DR.. August Muel-
Ter, a former member of the cabinet
and one of Germany's most prominent
Socialists, criticising Prussia's propos-
al for wholesale deliveries of Chilean
salt petre.
Australia has more than so species

MONGOLIANS Revere
LIVING BUDDHk WITH
GREAT ENTHUSIASM

The door slowly opened and there
entered the emperor OF Mongolia, the
living Buddha, his holiness Bogdo
Djebtsung Damba Hutuktu, khan Of
Outer Mongolia. He was a stout old
man with a heavy, shaven face, and
he was dressed in the yellow s1lken
Monaghan coat with black binding.
The eyes of the blind man were wide
open.
During my stay in Urga visited the
abode of the living Buddha several
times. His favorite learned maram-
/ bas gave me long accounts OF him.
The lamas were very frank with me,
because the ring given TO me when
visited the friendly Hutuktu of Mar
abanchi, who is highly esteemed in
Mongolia and Tibet, won for me their
confidence.
The living Buddha has double per
sonality. He is clever, penetrating
energetic, but at the same time he in
dulges in the drunkenness that has
brought on blindness. When he be
came blind, the lamas were thrown
into a state of desperation. Some OF
them maintained that Bogdo Kahn
must be poisoned and another incar'
nate Buddha set in his place; while
the others pointed out the great merits
of the pontiff in the eyes of Mongol
ians and the followers of the yellow
faith.
Propitiate Gods
They finally decided to propitiate
the gods by building a great temple
with a gigantic statue of Buddha. He
never ceases to ponder upon the prob.
lens and well being of the church
and of Mongolia and at the same time
he INDUCES himself with useless
trifles. A retired Russian officer pre-.
scented him with two old guns, for
which the donor received the title
"Tumbaiir Hun''-"Prince Dear-to-my
Heart" On holidays these cannon were
fired to the great amusement of the
blind man.

Do YOUR BIT

NOV is the season for parties of
company, for weekend guests,
and for excursions to pay protracted
visits to country cousins. And you
will find that it is NOT always the
cleverest and wittiest person, the girl
who talks best or the man who dances
most perfectly, the one who tells the
funniest story or plays the best rag
time, who Is the most welcome guest
or who is urged again and again to
come back. .....
1t is the guest who does his part
and little more who is always popu-
lar with the members of the house
hold upon whom devolves the task of
running the house. And eventually
it is the one who never shirks who
wins popularity for himself or herself.
In these days when one can never
count on steady servants as we could
once there is always the possibility
that guests will have to turn to and
help wash the dishes.
81 am not going to turn in and do
the work of a kitchen maid" grumbles
the guest when the hotel help have

Largest Crop In the History of the
Fertile Provinces May Be Con-

Reports of Western Canada's wheat
crop, which may be considered fairly
accurate, as they are made at the
end of the season, when the crop is
fully harvested, would indicate a
yield of between 350,000,000 and $780,
100000 bushels from a total acreage
of 21,471,00 This is the greatest
yield in the history of the provinces

These were brought into the country
from the East, the West and the
South, by trainloads, and rushed for

AS a result of this combined effort

Of the West was successfully harvest

almost universally, in every section

THE ROMANCE OF WORDS

states: 'The people called in

"Pikers."
BY referring to "Piers Plow-
man." we find that the word is
by no means modern, for one of
the Quatrains of this old piece
reads:
/ have horne, and be hayward,
And liggen nyghtes
And keep my corne and my croft
From Pykers and Thieves.
From this evidence, it is prob
able that the word was brought
over to this country by some of
the English settlers, and gained
new impetus here by reason of
the fact that the name Pike was
applied in California in the
early sos to the migratory

whom came from Pike county, in
Missouri.

The coast definition of
"piker," coupled with the origi-

less responsible for the adoption
of the term in race-track slang
as the equivalent of some one

Mrs. Fox. "Why don't you stay at

get our breakfast? Remember, Rey-

who did not know at all what she
meant.

In Alberta there was a strange con-
dition. In the central district, always
noted for its heavy yields, there was
considerable of a falling off. instead
of the 80 and 40 bushel yields the
average ran from 10 to u, while in
southern portions, where drought had
affected the country for some time
past, there were exceptionally high
yields.
Reports from individual yields in diff
ferent portions of the three provinces
lead to the impression that when
threShing returns are in there will be
found to have been much better crop
than at present seems possible. Some
of these returns give individual farm
ers as getting as high as 40 bushels,
others 80 and so on, while in some
districts, where in early August not
more than or 10 bushels might be
looked for Is and Is bushels are re-
brought about by rains that worked
marvels in the appearance of the crop.
and then, too, instead of the head
carrying four rows, most of them car
ried six rows, and filled to the top,
which, to those who know, means at
least fifty per cent more.
The rye crop of all Western Cam
ada is exceptionally good; the oats
generally good and barley fair.
The weather at the time of writing
Is threatening for rainy spell, which
may interfere with threshing, and pro-
long it somewhat.
Most of the newcomers from the
States have excellent crops. During
August, the trains to Western Canada
carried hundreds of capitalists and
others interested in Western Canada

that they had arranged to have put
in on the land they owned. Very few
of them will be disappOinted.-Adver-

ALINE

OF CURIOUS Teutonic origin is

Abel, which mean high-born or noble.
Athalaric, the conqueror of Rome, was
a forerunner of the feminine Aline.

process of evolution is more easily dis
cernible.
