it to another airman, he regained it
again with a flight of close on 17,-
000 feet. His greatest achievement,
however, was his flight across the
Mediterranean, a feat which has not
been accomplished by any other air-
man. Nearly two years ago he flew 1 e
from near Toulon to Bizerte, near
Tunis, a non-stop flight of -nearly 500
miles, which he accomplished in un-
der eight hours. This flight was re-
markable not only for the distance
which the airman was obliged to fly
over, but for the fact that he did not
carry floats or anything that would
help him had he been obliged to
descend through engine trouble.
Shortly before the death of Gustav
Hamel a match took place between
the two airmen at the Juvisy Aero-
drome, near Paris, and in most of

Garros was victorious. Since the be-
ginning of the war he has accounted

ADVICE FOR PEACH GROWER.
Federal Bulletin Tells Him About Le -
cation of Orchard, Soil, Etc.
In at least thirty-nine of our forty-
eight states there are peach interests
of commercial importance, according
to a recent United States farmers'
bulletin. No, 631. of the department on
growing peaches. This bulletin is the
first of three on the general subject of
peach growing, which win treat of
fundamental orchard operations. It
gives • much valuable Information to
the fruit grower. The questions of
site, propagation, planting, tillage and
soil fertility are treated in the fist
bulletin. •
In locating a peach as well as any
other orchard other advantages must
be considered besides the natural ones
of climate and soil. Lf an orchard is
too remote from u ahippint station, too
far away trona a suitable market, or
'oeated where ice for refrigerator cars
annot be conveniently supplied, it
may not be possible to grow peaches
4 here profitably.
Peaches may do well on a wide
range of soil types, including even
:some of the moderately heavy clay
teams and clays. But, whatever the
t Ipe. a soil must be thoroughly well
c-allucd to be suitable for peaches.
They will not succeed on poorly drain.
ed sails, it follows that ,the heavy
play types which ere so hard and im-
perviune that water does not percolate
hrongh then readily are to be avoid -
el as a rule. Moreover, a soli should

In nitrogen is not to be desired as a
general rule, since it is likely to In-
duce on excessive growth of foliage.'
On the other hoed, the impression
which is somewhat common that a
poor, nnfertilo soil Is "good enough
for peaches" is erroneous:
In districts in which aikali sbi1s oc-
r sites should be selected with A
ew to avoiding them. While the
atilt tree can be grown where there
a limited amount of, alkali salts,
ey cause disaster if present in large
quantities. It is safer therefore to
avoid them ea far as possible.
As a general proposition a site that
is elerated Considerably above the sur-
rounding area is to be preferred for a
peach orchard. Relative elevation is
generally of greater importance than
actual elevation above sea level.

The Admiralty have decided to in-

CANADA'S KII'LING.
How Service reseed From the
of Tramp to That of Poet,
London Tit -Hits has the follow'
*Mete on Robert Service, the Can
dials poet:
The flame •f Robert W. Servi

poet whose "Songs of a Sourdoug
present a picture of life "out Wes
more vivid,, definite, and truthf
than anything which has yst be
written, and his careerprovides
P v eA
equally striking story.
"At twenty-one, to the horror
my parents, I kinked over the trac
and precipitated myself violent
into the wild Weld." That is ho
Mr. Service himself relates his m
gration. to Canada, which occurre
after he had spent some years
clerk ina bank in Glasgow, "Ila
ing reached years of indiscretion,
he says, "the routine of the office b
t gan to pail upon me. I seemed t
aea my life an (Indices vista of dra
• days, and myself growing bald an
paunchy in a halo of respectabilit
I rebelled. I wanted color, action
• change, excitement, with the thri
of not knowing what was round th
darner."
And Mr. Service got it; for, site
traveling steerage as an emigr-an
he landed in Vancouver with exactl
five dollars in his pocket, and •had t
start work by picking stones off th
surface of a field destined for tur
nips. Tree -chopping, farming
school -teaching, newspaper report
ing, Indian trading, and various oth
er miscellaneous occupations follow
ed before the Kipling of Canad
came to the conclusion that his pa
onts were right and that the wo
et a bank clerk was his torte.
"I was tired," he says, "of being
kicked about from pillar to post, and
once more I sought a situation in
bank. I was tamed down, and then
I had a stroke of luck that change
my whdle destiny. For at the heigh
of the gold rush I was sent to the
Yukon by the bank which employed
me, and remained there for eight
yearn. The extraordinary virility
and color of the life made a great
impression on me, and it was during
the solitary walks I used to take as
a cure for dyspepsia that I first be-
e= td write.
"I had read so many stories of
the North, and I had read so much mat that I began, st of sheer
boredom, to versify, Kipling fash-
ion."'
Mr. Service, however, thought so
little of his work at that time that
the verses which emanated from his
pen were thrown into the bottom of
trunk, and lay there for some time.
One lucky day, however, he came
across them and read them to n
friend. This friend thought "they
weren't so bad for an amateur," and
suggested that Mr. Service should
have some of them printed and hand
them round to tis friends as a
Christmas card.
"This, however, struck one a
rather foolish," ho says, "and kap
pening to receive a bonus ot on
hundred dollars, I took the piung
sent my verses to a publisher, and
told him to go ahead and print them
at my expense."
The rest, according to Mr. Service.
reads like a fairy story, for thio pub
Usher was so impressed with tiltf
merit of the verses that he insisted
on publishing thera on a royalty
basis, and before Mr, Service real'z
ed what a genius he was his verse:
had reached the sevantti edition, and
they have been sell`ng ever since..

School, has been under arms in the

which marched out of Paris a few

The island of Lemnos, which the
allies are said to be using as a base
for their attacks on the Dardanelles,
has a long and varied history, but is
now noted chiefly for its medicinal
earth. This earth, which has been
highly esteemed in the East since
classie times as a cure for numerous
ailments and an antidote to poison,
comes from a dry mound near the
village of Kotschinos, and can only
