EVERYBODY'S SECRET:
Officers at Salisbury Found Leave
Rules Hard To Obey.
SALISBURY PLAIN, Jan. 5. A
general order was issued which stat-
ed that no general Christmas leave
at all would be granted the men of the
Canadian Expeditionary Force. The
next line went on to say that com-
manding officers were empowered to
grant it to the extent of 20 per cent.
of the men under their command.
Seven days could be allowed for men
wishing to proceed to Ireland, six for
those going to Scotland and so on in
descending proportion, according to
the distance which tho recipients of
such leave proposed to travel. Final-
ly there was an injunction that this
was to be kept "secret."
There are officers who have learned
the drill book' from cover to cover
and who know "everything else"
about tactics and strategy, and yet
they found themseivea up a tough
proposition when they were required
to `grant leave to one-fifth• of their
men. •and to keep the fact secret from
the• rest!

CONSERVE BREEDING STOCK '
Everyone knows that trade condit-'
lou' and enterprise have suffered a
very serious zutd unexpected upheaval
during the past year. To this situat-
ion thv war has, of course, largely
contributed; but other causes, ilt-
cludL''ai the general financial depres-
sion throughout the country have
been operative far some months past.
The agricultural industry has, natur-
ally been widely affected by these
changing conditions and by the eary-
ine situation with respect to .lemand
and supply. The rase in the;price of
grain together with the corresponding
fillip to grain production, iepresents
without doubt the most outstanding
feature of the direction which has
been given to agricultural activity.
We need :perhaps above ail thongs
else. Level judgment in the' conduct
of our agricultural affairs during the
eomireesyear, It is to be expected that
grain production will be laxgely in-
creased. The raw products of the
soil are and will be, in demand tt' •e-
tnunerative prices. What then is to.
be said what course is to be followed
with •k?respect ti the breeding of live
stoc
The high price of feed, on the one
hand and relatively low prices for man
ket on the other have resulted Tn veru
heavy marketing throughout Canada,
particularly in the Western provinces
a° the stock. suitable for bonne ling
purposes. I'orhaps this was inevitzale
but well these conditions zontinei.i
Feed grain will without doubt, ,et time
iu price but it must never be over
Tooke t that the country can nainuin
very large numbers of live -to:k •t
the enormous quantity of rough fod-
der which it can produce. ro raste
this for the sake of the grain ,.nt•
can be grown, would, under the pres-
ent circumstance, be criminal neglect
It is clear that the country should
conserve its breeding stock. If grain
is to be grown for sake it 13 -ea re -
mended that plans carefully ,haaebt
of as toithe manner in which 'the great
ntiIlya" of dder may be-
ace
est quantity
avable for ,feedinfog purposes
amt as to the means
rough by which thi;
otherwise waste product, together
with the screenings and unsaleable
grain may be utilized to the best
possible advantage. In other words
eliminate waste. Do it by feeding live
stock
The present low prices for Steck
cannot last long. A careful review of
the world situation makes it . clear
that these will be a shortage nelct ar
Europe is becoming seriously iep eted
in both. breeding and feeding stock.
The United States for ten months of
the current year, at its leading, mar
kets is short 746,045 cattle 208,000
sheep and 1,894 939 hogs. Canada has
az before stated, heavily liquidated her
breeding° animals ,and while it
may possibly mauatain its quota
next year of cattle and sheep, it is
doubtful if mane than seventy-five per
cent of the number- of.. hogs will 'field
their way to market int 1915, as ':;om-
pared with the current year. 'It is
therefore, a time far live stock men
to stay with their trade, The Pres -
en: tendency is, of course, all the
other way A ,safe harvest is likely to
be reaped by those who have live
