day at Ypres. The tide of war had
flowed back south from the User and
the coast Of Belgium into France.
Heavy reinfOrcemcnts of first-lne
German troops, hurried up from Ghent
and Bruges, were thrown into the

severe at two points on which the AL

From falling hands they threw the

With the Continental Powers the
merging of conventional armies into

Lord Kitchener, with flash of vi

probable duration of the conflict.
He called for a million men.
Sir Henry Wilson, at British head

Perhaps so, but at the moment I

Sure, he steppe rite over and then
he put a matchstick on his shoulder
and said it was chip and dared me
to mock it of. and pop said, Just a

Yes sir, and I nocked it of all rite,

the drought area could not support so
many people as at present. People
live where the rain falls. They live
In dry places, too, but not in nearly
such large numbers. Arizona is a
healthful State, but with close to l14,-
900 square miles Of land it has a
population today of hardly 10000
four to the square mile.
Nevada, another dry State, is not so
healthful as Arizona. 1t has an aver
age of less than one person to the
square milel Compare that with Cali
fornia, which has So persons TO the
square mile.
Irrigation, the giving OF water to
dry places, has turned desert lands
into gardens, and is mans answer to
lack of rain over a period Of many
years. River dams are built, canals
are dug, and the thirsty soil is given
enough to drink.
II the drought area should have the
same i'll fortune year after year. there
would be mighty efforts to make trri-
cation take the place Of rainfall, but
the chances are that Nature will be
more kind in the future than during

NiIk Reaction
BY MYRTLE MEYER ELDRED.

MILK sensitivities and their symp-
toms are seldom recognized by
the parent. Mothers should know
that changing the type of milk may
be all that Is necessary to adjust
baby's personal difficulties. In some
cases, reduction Of the amount OF
milk, or its complete omission. may
be the only answer.
"I have read your department for
three years and 1t has helped me
greatly" writes Mrs. T. F. Now l
want to ask your help with this prob
lem. We have no doctor in our vicin-
ity, just a nurse. She thinks the
baby's trouble is inherited.
Baby is 8 months old and weighs
10 pounds. At 4 months stopped
nursing her and put her on evapo-
rated milk. At 8 months we changed
to cows milk. At that time I began
giving her oatmeal porridge. and sew
eral mornings she vomited- 1 olscon-
tinued the porridge, and tried corn
starch, baked potatoes, egg yolk, soup
broth, crackers, but she wouldn't take
any of them. II she doesn't like the
taste she takes the food out OF her
mouth and cries.
"She has been taking porridge lately
but doesn't digest the milk. she
vomits at least once daily and the
milk comes up in a piece like cottage
cheese. After the vomiting, she breaks
out in a red rash about the size OF a
70 ptnr IN ohnllf
a week this center forms water and
dries. I have weak stomach but l
do not break out. The first time she
had canned milk she broke out this
way, but got over it. When should
I quit washing her hair daily?"
The baby's sensitivity first showed
I'D when you stopped nursing and
put her on evaporated milk. AS this
milk is an easy type to digest. she got
over it. At months, simultaneously
with the porridge, you gave uncooked
cows milk. The reaction toward milk
again became noticeable.
Go back to using canned milk.
When the reaction is past, try various
types of cereal-one at a time-or
banana as the cereal part of the diet.
Continue using the one which causes
no reaction. suggest emitting egg,
at least for the present, as 1t is
usually an accompanying irritant. You
may have my leaflet, "Diet From Two
to Twelve Months" plus the leaf1et,
What Mothers Should Know About

was fun. Mother played it with them
sometimes and often they played it
among themselves. 1t was just
game to the bunnieS, but mother knew
that the time would come for all OF
them when memory of that trick
would mean the saving of their lives.
Another game was puzzle-your-
nose That was quite as much fun
as bump-on-a-log. Mother would
steal away from them when they were
not watching her. Then from little
distance she would thump for them
to come to her The smartest ones
soon discovered that they could fol-
low her by using their wabbly little
noses to follow the scent left by her
feet. Then they would come to the
place where she had thumped. They
would know it by the stronger scent
there But she wouldn't be there
Once more they would follow their
noses along her trail, and then sud-
denly it would end. There would be
no more scent and no mother to be
seen
Then there would be great
scurrying about this way and that
way. Sometimes they would find her
sitting near by perfectly still watch
ing them hunt for her She had
broken the trail by jumping off to
one side Sometimes there would be
no end to the trail. but they would
find themselves right back where they
started. Sometimes the trail kept
twisting and turning and crossing un-
til they became so confused that they
could no longer follow it correctly
Then the scent would grow less and
less as they tried to find which way
1t led. Finally it would disappear al
together, for scent does this after
a while. Then mother would thump
from wherever she happened to be-
and they would start all over again
They didn't know. but she knew that
they were learning how to fool an
enemy who might hunt them later

on, when they were out in the Great
World.
Sometimes one would go with her
and do exactly what she did, thus
learning by imitation. 1t was always
easier to play this game at night, for
then the scent lay strongest and so
was easier to follow. In the middle
of the day, when jolly, round, bright
Mr.. Sun was shining hot, they found
they could not follow mothers scent
well at all. So they learned that dry
ground does not hold scent as damp
or wet ground does.
When mother wasn't about, which
wasn't often, or was taking nap,
they played these games together, one
or another taking mothers place and
trying to fool the others. 1t was
great fun, and it was all play, mind
YOU. 1t never entered their funny
little heads that they were learning
how to hve-a game of life. Only
mother and father, who sometimes
played with them when mother
wasn't there, knew that.
Indeed, those were happy days in
the dear Old Briar- patch. And each
day those little rabbits were little
bigger and a little stronger and a lit
tie hvelier and kicked up their long
heels little more vigorously and ran
a little faster and were little more
independent Sometimes Mrs. Peter
sighed as she watched them. This
couldn't last long. She knew it. 1t
could last only a very short time, for
rabbit children are given to leaving
home and venturing out into the
Great World at an earlier age than
most children. Any day now that
happy family might begin to grow
smaller, as one or another wandered
away.
. So Mrs. Peter sighed and did her
best to teach them the things they
should know by doing them herself
as she played with them, and the
Dummies learned without knowing they
were learning. They were at school
and didn't know it, and that Is the
very best kind of a school,

Sego Lily.
Calochortus nuttallii.


-HE State of Utah has chosen
this exquisite flower as her
floral emblem. Not only for
i its own sake was this dainty
flower selected, but 1t has
figured in the history of the State.
The Indians named 1t sego, which
means a gift of the gods, to be eaten.
The Spaniards called the flowers
Marisposa lilies because of the beau
tiful colors on the inside. Marisposa
means butterfly. As matter Of fact
the sego Is not a lily but a tulip.
About the first of May, in Arizona,
California and Utah, the blossoms be-
gin to open. You will find many OF
them on the dry mountain stones and
valleys of the Sierra Nevada In Cali
fornia and eastward to the Rocky
Mountains. Here great fields Of them
push their way out of the brown
grass.
When the segos grow on short
stems, they remind you of crocuses.
Nodding from tall stems, you see their
resemblance to tulips. There are
many varieties that are brightly col
ored. This one is fairylike. creamy
white. The flower Is about 21z to 3
inches across Many times the edges
of the petals are fluted. On the in
side of the flower. close to the base,
there are hairy patches. There are
also splotches, pencilings and dots OF
varied colors
The slender, graSs-like leaves are
a dark green, with blush bloom. !"
The contrast between the delicately
tinted petals. that are sometimes a
heavenly clear lilac, and the unusual
color of the leaves, makes you realize
why the man, whose name they bear,
thought them the most beautiful
flowers in the world.
At the base Of each flower Is a
bulb. BY this means the plant stores
its food supply for the coming year
and sends up new plants.
While the plant has been able TO
stand freezing and thawing, it does
not like 1t. If you wish to grow these
lovely flowers, you should provide an
extra blanket of mulch for them in
the late Autumn.
Thomas Nattallii, an ardent botan-
list, joined the Wyeth expedition in
1884 He made a special study Of this
flower wrote its history and gave ii
his name.
1t was during the late l840s, when
the Mormons came into the Salt Lake
Valley and before their own gardens
had become productive. that the segc
