In no war in the past have the elec-

ous how the army signal corps have
perfected their frail -looking wires
and instruments so that they will
work under themost unfavorable con-

—all of these come to the signal corps
man in the pursuit of his duties more
than ever before. To -day he may in-
stall a telephone switchboard in a
cheerful little town near grand head-
quarters, situated a dozen miles back
of the battlefront. To -morrow he may
be stringing wires through a shell
swept forest. One case will serve to
show the lottery -like chance these
men take. An English military line-
man had been busy for several weeks
in a district near the Aisne battle-
front. He had completed straighten-
ing out a perfect jungle of wires and
circuits. His captain came along and
was. pleased to learn that all of the.
circuits had been tested - out without.

FARM TO FAMILY.
A Way to Discover Whether Middle-
man is a Real, Necessity.
Two dollars and forty cents was the
price paid for a bag of potatoes by. a
Kingston lady, according to a recent
press eeport. One of the potatoes had
a card attached signed by the farmer
who grew them, which said: "I ,sold
at $1; what did you pay?" Here
again we are faced with the'ubiquii
ous middleman, concerning whose
elimination much ink has been shed.
Now there are middlemen and middle-
men, which, is to say that some mid-
dlemen are necessary and some are
not, and the best way to find out whe-
ther a given middleman is necessary
or not is to try to get along without
him.
The farmer and the city household-
er are generally supposed to be the
worst victims of the middlemen and,
if the victimizing can be, lessened In
this case, there should be some hope
in others. Here is a suggestion look-
ing toward the accomplishment of
that end. Let the newspapers in the
larger centres of population feature
"Farm Farm to Family" section in their
condensed want ad. page. This would
carry advertisements of farmers who
had produce to sell to the city con-
sumer and also advertisements of the
'cosumer Ilo wanted
to buy from
the farmer. Toet the e movement..
started, a half-price rate might be of-
fered °and the new departure should he
well advertised in the news columns
of the paper.
'The advertising manager having
the courage to make - this 'enture
would gain considerable fame for his
paper and Would also prove conclu-
sively whether the farmer and the
consumer really do want to get rid of
the middleman.

THE NEEDOF NII'ROGIJN
Use of Explosives Accounts' for Los a
of .Fertilizing Element.
English and French scientists` are
giving much attention to the problem;
of nitrogen and its relation to crop
production. The British Government
is reported as about to put out an.
edition of Sir William Crookes' mono-
graph, "The Wheat Problem," which
appeared 25 years ago and was evi-
dently read understandingly by no one
except the Germans.
In this little book Sir William
pointed out that thepopl,lation of the
world was steadily increasing while
the area suited to the production of
wheat was nearly all developed. There-
fore it became a mere mathematical
calculation to determine just how long
it would be before the human race
would begin to be hungry for wheat.
But since Sir William Crookes' the-
sis wasfirst published' a second factor
has entered into the problem. Millions
of men who used to be engaged 'in the
cultivation of the soil have gone to
war and by the use of explosives have
been for the past three years liberat-
ing at an almost incredible rate the
supplies of nitrogen which in a sane
and normal order should have gone to
enrich the soil.
Thus the -human race is hurrying
itself on toward starvation by two
direct methods. It is not cultivating
foodstuffs and it is destroying the
chief element of which fertilizers are
made. The greatest' supply of nitrates
in the world is found in the Chilean
nitrate -of -soda deposits. but these
are not inexhaustible and the war has
been drawing upon them for explo-
sives at the rate of nearly 3,000,000
tons per year.
Germany long ago foresaw the dan-
ger and developed facilities for fixing
the free nitrogen of which the at-
mosphere is partly.., composed. The
method employed requires enormous
mechanical power, such as is repre-
sented by swift -running streams or
great waterfalls, So, when the war
put an end to Germany's commerce,
that country was not wholly depend-
ent -upon nitrogen imported from for-
eign countries.
Righteous Wrath. -
There are many kinds of hate,' as
many kinds of fire; -
And some are fierce and fatal with
murderous desire;
And some are mean and craven, re-
vengeful, selfish, slow,
They . hurt the lean that holds them
more than they hurt his foe.
And yet there is a- hatred that purifies
the heart,
The anger of the better against the
baser part,
Against the, false and wicked, against
the tyrant's sword,
Against the enemies of love, and all
that hate the Lord.
0 cleansing indignation, 0 flame of
righteous wrath,
Give me a soul to see thee and follow
in. thy path!
Save me from selfish virtue, arm rile
for fearless fight,
And give me strength to carry on, a
soldier of the Right!
—Dr. Henry. Van Dyke.
Back Yards and vacant Lots.

Now is the time for organization.
There will bea greater' need for pro-
duction in cities, towns and villages
this summer than ever before. Plan
what you will do with the back yard
or vacant lot now, so that when the
season begins in a few weeks hence,
you will know what to do and will
lose no precious time about it. Once
the garden season starts it starts with
a rush. There is no shortageof vege-
table seeds except parsnips. Wholesale'
dealers have plenty of seeds in stock.

A Cincinnati man dis,
covered this ether com-

freozone. Any drug-
gist will sell a tiny bot-
tle of freezone; like here
shown, for very little
cost. You apply a few
drops directly upon a,
tender corn or callus.
Instantly the soreness
disappears, then short-
ly you will find the corn
or callus so loose that
you can lift it right off:
Freezone is wonder-
ful. It dries instantly.
It doesn't eat away the
'corn or callus, but
shrivels it up without
even irritating the surrounding skin.
Hard, soft or corns between the toes,
as well as painful calluses, lift right
off. There' is no pain before or after-
wards. If your druggist hasr- t
freezone, tell him to order a sma11'bot-

house.
