Even with the footboards running along the bottom of the trenches there were stretches where the chalky yel- lowish mud oozed through. "It is paradise compared to what it was last winter," said our trench escort. We had got to another part of the line, when one of the members of the German bomb family arrived near the top of the sandbags and,lobbed a large piece of mud into drying -pan in which a soldier was preparing some bacon. The culinary artist disgust- edly put away a paper he had been reading and forked the piece of mud out of the pan, and then resumed his reading. Aeroplanes at Work. Suddenly there was a great buzzing overhead. Like a flock of birds 26 British aeroplanes were going over the German lines to raid a concentra- tion depot. Fritz endeavored to form a curtain fire through which the air- ^'' nnen could not passbut they never wavered, and had. disappeared long before the small, puffy clouds had -melted away. As we moved along there came an ominous scuttling through the air. Even a short apprenticeship under German fire gives a certain amount of knowledge of their direction.

It saves a great amount. of labor in cultivating.

The feed roots are out beyond this strip with the rows 30 to 35 feet apart, that gives 25 feet of working ground in the cen- tre and he sows cove crops in that. One year he sowed a cover crop of clover and then broke it up the fol- lowing spring. He also mulched with manure. His orchards are near the lake and have a deep clay loam. Un- til this cover crop was used he could not get a good color in the fruit. He is sure that if he broke up this sod and cultivated close to the trees, he would not get as good color as he has been getting, This bit of practical information from a man who knows much about apple growing and orchard culture will be appreciated by all who have orchards on their farms.

JOKES WITH DEATH • UP IN THE AIR ALL IN THE DAY'S WORK OF THE AVIATOR. Mixtures of Tragedy and Comedy Found in Life of the War Flyers. "Humors of War in the Air," is the subject of an interesting article in the London Daily Express by Mr. C. M. Grey, editor of the Aeroplane, in which he narrates an aviator's version of the old farce "Box and Cox" and some incidents of Turkish "cheek." "A story that appeared in a Turk- ish communique the other day re- lating how a Turkish aviator dropped bombs near one of the allies' .cruisers and caused her to change her course, after which he attacked a destroyer with his machine gun," he writes, "is probably something of an exag- geration, but it would be quite a mis- take to put it down as an absolute fabrication, because people who have. quite a high opinion of the Turks as fighting men and even respect their aviator's. The Turkish communique refers to the aviator as a Turk, but the pilots of the Turkish aeroplanes have been Germans chiefly. "There is one incident, however, related to me by an officer who has just returned from Gallipoli, of which the hero was more likely to have been a Turk than a German, for the German, although he may on occa- sion fight quite well, does not' appa- rently believe in taking chances pure- ly as a sport.

Millerand, Ont., May 8th (Special.) —Strong and hearty again after a long period of weakness and ill -health, Louis Champagne, a well-known resi- dent of this place, is spreading broad- cast the good news that he found new health and strength in Dodd's Kidney Pills. .

A pamphlet has been issued by the Parliamentary War Savings Commit- tee in Britain entitled "Why We Must Save and How." As it is intended to illustrate the possibilities of saving by all classes there are necessarily many hints calculated to be of value the world over and especially in af- filiated countries. In the first place it combats the notion that those peo- ple who spend all they make are ne- cessarily benefiting trade. On the contrary those who save wisely ad- vantage themselves, their neighbors and their country. Spending money on luxury gives .a certain amount of employment, but nothing like the employment that investment in de- sirable and necessary articles does. The best way to convey the meat in this useful and timely pamphlet would seem to be to summarize its conbents in brief, emphatic sentences: Thrift is a national duty, so that the money thus saved may be invest- ed with the government. The more goods we buy at home and the more we make and send abroad the richer the country becomes. Every dollar borrowed' abroad that might be obtained at ; home means .ny mouth.

This is one reason why the 'Italian losses are so heavy, Many corps have been living for months under these terrible conditions.

The Austrians have concentrated about a million men in front of the sector of Gorizia and on the Carso. The next offensive will be one of the greatest battles of the war. {{ MOTHER AND BABY.

A visitor to a small country town loot his dog, an animal which he , prized very much. Rushing to the office of the local newspaper he band- ed in an advertisement, offering fifty dollars reward for the return of l!i.s dog. Half an hour later he thought he would add to the advertise- ment the words: "No questions ask- ed." So he hurried off to the office again. When he got there the place was empty save for a little boy, who looked very sulky. "Where's the staff ?" asked the tourist, glancing round the deserted room. "Out look- ing for your dog!" was the aggrieved retort. The fond mother always has the welfare of her little ones at heart.
