This group of refugees Is typical of
the bulk of .the Belgian people to -day.
Their faces show pitiably the hard-
ships they have undergone in the last
two years.
Most pathetic of all are the children.
Thanks to the splendid work of unsel-
fish philanthropists, they are being
fed well. But apart from this there
is little that can be done for them. It
is impossible, for instance, to supply
them with homes, or with those use-
less but delightful gifts that charact-
erize the holidays in more fortunate
lands. Least of all can these chil-
dren know the joy that comes of mak-
ing such gifts.

no reason why spring wheat cannot be

According to investigations at On-

wheat should be seeded as early as the
ground can be worked. I note that

supplied with tile. This ground
should not be worked while it is sticky,
