What., They Give "For This,"
Ilea women of Germany are giving
'their gold, their rings, bracelets, jewel_
Ire, to the wax fond and are receiving
'iron rings inscribed with the words,
"We gave our gold for this."
It is fitting. Germany has borrowed
millions in gold front France and
Britain and intends to repay in bullets
and bayonet, and ehelle fired from
siege guns, IF she can conte out of
this war a victor she proposes to re.
pudiate her debts to the countries she
bas warred with -she .aims to so crush
and terrorize them tha t t ley will be
glad enough to adenit that they • have
received payment in fuel in iron and
lead and cold steel:
No doubb that: women of Germany
respond to patriotic emotion when
"they give their gold for this." And
they give aka their husbands and
brothers and sons "for -this." What
they get is au iron ring. a symbol of
the iron collar that Prussian militate
ism would rivet on tlae neck of man-
kind. The Kaiser is • ge nerous with
iron crosses foxy men an a iron rings
for women, but in the program of
blood and iron he is no :lose generous
with the blood of men and women. -

A small body of lancers, not more

The Live Stock Branch of 'the Depax t-
xnent of Agriculture at Ottswa has is
sued a very practical bulletin on "The
case of the Ewe and Lamb". It cons-
titutes a shepherd's presentation of the
details of management of the breeding
flock, more particularly during the
winter and spring months. It takes up
among other things, parturition, feed•
iug, docking, castration, the raising
of pet Lamps, and the simple and more
serious ailments and accidents met with
in the ordinary flock, concluding with
a series of paragraphs termed „Leaves
from the note -book of a, successful shep-
herd".
The bulletin, which is helpfully ill-
ustrated was prepared by T, R•°ginned
Arkell, who bas charge of the sheep and
goat division of the Iive stock branch.
-It is designated as phamplet No. 1 of
the live stock branch. Copies are avail-
able to those who apply for them to

}WHOARETHETURCOS?t
Tlao use of the word "Turcos" in
the war despatches seems to have
puzzled not a tow people, who ape
parently think they are an Oriental
corps which in some mysterious was
was mobilized to assist the allies. Tlir
•confusion arises from the tact that
"Turcos" is a slang name for the
Tirailleurs, ono of the best of the
French Colonial forces. The Tirail-
leurs, indeed, are a corps of phnrp•
shooters, who havo been practically
trained from boyhood to fight, Tho
greater proportion of the Turcos are
Arabs of pure blood, though the offi-
cers and non-commissioned officers
are mostly French, Excluding the
French densest, all the Turcos are
Mohammedan, and death has no ter-
rors for them. To die in war is for
them to enter the Mussulman Para-
dise.
In years gone by they fought
amongst themselves, tribe against
tribe, and at one time used their
swords against the French. Ultimate-
ly they became French subjects, and
are now only too glad to fight the
enemies of Prance. The Turcos are
born, fighters, possessing extraordin-
ary powers of endurance, for they
havo been brought up to "rough it"
front infancy. Furthermore they are
accustomed to living on next to
nothing.
Few soldiers carry such a weight
on their shoulders as the Turcos.
Their knapsacks weigh from. 80 pounds.
to 100 pounds, tor, in addition to his
own kit, each man carries some por-
tion of the camp equipment. Then
there is, of course, the rifle.
With their black, straight hair, sur-
mounted' by a red fez, and their black
beards, and wearing a sort of blouse
or loose tunic with baggy Moorish
trousers, strong boots of a greyish
leather, and cloth ankle -bands; they
make ono oe the most picturesque
corps at present engaged in the war.

One Experience With There Enough--

a picturesque description at the
eVaterloo Station in London of the
;British cavalry charge by which he
Was unhorsed. His language showed
that he was still vividly impressed
• `by what happened when the Scots
Greys charged his regiment.
"Mein Gott, it is hell let loose
when your English lancers charge,"
he said; "and I will never face them
again, never again;
"We were in open country with a
chimp of hills before us, and it was
as wo neared' them that a troop of
howling, yelling devils with lances,
but no jackets or hats, came racing
round a hill and then straight foe us-
