ROSS, Principal, Armenian Expedition Constantinople as seen by a Canadian Nurse - This is Sunday Marob 16th and we are at Prinkipo. It is a mouth to=day since we left New York on the Leviat- hen. After passing the Dardanelles we reached Constantinople early yester- day and tied up almost against the main street the Bosphorns is so deep boats go right up to the quay. It look- ed fascinating. Constantinople is div- ided into four main parts, Stamboul, the original city and now the most Turkish section; Galata and Peva across from Stamboul where the better shops stud hotels are and Scutari aeroes on the Asiatic side, where Florence Night ingale had a great hospital in the Crim- ean War. Stamboul Tooke beautiful from a distance, but like every thing 'Turkish, it is _ horrible when close The mosques are very pictureaque againat the sky. 'It was pouring rain when we left the ' Gloueeater Castle". Each of hs bore her own hand baggage and followed rickety carts carrying what we couldn't. You should have Been es—the noise, the mud, the smells —the cluttering Turin --the beggars. We managed to push and crowd and elbow ovr way nntil we reached the Galata bridge where the boat left for the Princess Islands, This is where the 13olsheviki wore to have the conference with the Allies, We are on Prinkipo, one of tbo Is- lands, a sort of summer resort. We sailed at six as the Turks have a way of waiting and putting out the gang plank again again after sailing. Every man wears a fez—so hero we are, lone women, going, no one knows where. F thought we were about to be taken by the Turks out into the sea of Marmora and sunk—we were alinost disappointed to find isle moat of the "terrible" Turks are peaceable and polite—you see we were looking for something romantic and trying to scare each other. .We found Prinkipo after Mopping at several islands and, had a surprise to find German officers lined up to receive us. They had the effront cry to actually say "Welcome", There are 1600 of them, wo found out the next day --prisoners. Eight British offieer,p have them in enlarge, and One of the Tommie!, thinking we were nervous. with eo manyGlermans about,. atsured us we need not be afraid "There are ight of us, 'ere"! Aftergoing aloug the dark streets we were frnatly ushered into our "hote d' etrangers" and to our ley saw a big dining room all set out for us. We all got placos•dt euca'andweited for dinner and there wo waited, 'then we started lr? i !,n 9FI.fteper ye fir"' singand 1 an end sail for an: toe e a d v g Bang hour andahoIf before some fried fish and dry bread made then appearance, (we have not seen butter since we left the Glouster Castle), The people who keep the hotel are French, but a more uncomfortable place one could hardly imagine. We are three in a room on armv cots, sieeping in our sleeping bags. and rugs. The miesionaries tell us we aro luckyto have nothing but Aese to worry u,, but they are bad enough, Townshend's house is here, it is a beautiful plane, This ie where be was held a prisoner when captured by the 'nuke. They say he had a good time here, still he was a prisoner' . On Monday we went over to Cowden ttnopie and after lunch we got a guide and he took us to many places of inter- est—the Museum whish has not been open for four year, where we saw Alex. ander the Great's tomb, a more beauti Sul I have never Been. It is a huge oblong sarcophague of pink and red and white marble with hunting scenes, the figures in relief withred and pink streaks in the marble worked cleverly to form the .clothe, 'arid cloak and blood from wounds -it is perfectly marvellous. Then we went to the tong famed Santa Sophia (by the way Santa Sophia means "Holy Wisdom" and 1. not a name of a saint at all). We were given carpet slippers to put over our shoes and showed around—really I was, disappointed, I had expected so much and since the war the Turk, have let everything go to ruin—it•was dirty, smelly and one got no ides of dignity, or beauty or holiness from the . place. It is huge, immense. We also saw the famous "Bloody Hand 51 ark, the plane where the angry Sultan put bis' fingers through the pillar and the various erossee. Over the main door where on-' y the Sultan may enter is an open book and on it "I am the Light of the World„ 'Chen we went to some tombs of Sultans and to the obelisk, in the Hippodrome and around the walls of the old city, but I was not nearly thrilled as about English walls in York and Leicester Then we went to the Grand Bazaar, but here words fail me. It is like a rab- bit warren filthy, dark, smelly, crowded with thousands of Turks, all yelling and pushing and crowding together—or sitting in their shops, drinking coffee and smoking, It was it ild, and I was glad to get out of it, having an eye to fleas and such like. As mend some British officers came up and asked if they could be of assistance knowing we were Americans, I told cue, that lie talked like a Canadian and it turned out he was from Windsor and a grad- uate of Toronto University and knew people I knew. He was wounded twice in France and then transferred to the intelligence Department es he speaks severallanguagee. We have been told that four of us are to go to Caesarea, by train to Konia and thea by donkey the root of, the way—so don't worry if you get no letters for a time. .I will write when I can get a snail, Pig Pastures The cost of the production of pork can be materially reduced by the use of pastures. Under ordinary conditions where a pig is fed on grain alone, it takes careful feeding and a very thirfty kind of pig to make 100 pound! gain from 500 pounds of grain, and more frequently 600 to 700 poundsof grain are consumed, Experiments with pasture and self feeders at Brandon Experimental Farm have shown that it is possible to make good Baine at the dote of 300 10 400 pounds of grain to 100 pounds of pork with the. addition of pasture. Pasture cannot be used satisfactorily to replace grain, but it may very fiprofitebly reduce the grain consumption by - one-third. As the pasture can be grown very oheapiy and the pigs do their harvoetipg themselves, the oust of'produciug a pound of pork may bo resiiced 20-25 per (sent. This moy-moan the differenee between pro. fit andlose, There are oonaiderable number of crops that may be used for pig pasture The ordinary grain drops 811011 as wheat 'Date, barley and rye are quite suitable. Sown in the .spring, dress-- drape aro ready for pasturing at the that spring pigs bory_in Mareb or .April are old enoughto use pasture to advantage Sprfng`rye is the first of these crops to be ready for use, The pigss eat it well and produce good gales , on it, However, it soon pastes the most pal - stable stage and becomes more woody as it shoots into, bead, Gate and bar- ley are about a week later than rye in reaching the proper stage for harvest- ing but are relished rather more by the pigs and oontiuue in a suitable condition for pasturing for a longer time. Wheat also produces good pas tura but is no better thart other grains and the Beed is more expensive For later summer and fall pasture there is nothing better than rape. Sown' in early spring it is ready for pasture bout the middle of July, or, sown later it reaches pasturing stage in about six weeks from the date of sowing. Pigs like it very well; it produces a large amount of fend and stands pasturing well. It is one of the beat planta for hog pasture, Another fall pasture is fall rye. If scorn in mideummer it is ready to pas- ture in a month from the date of sow- ing. It produces a good grade of pas- ture until severe frosts comes and does not head out in the fall, Perennial crops may also be used as pig pasture. Alfalfa will produce more pasture per acre probably than any other pasture crop, Pigs do very well on it, and produce economical Raine. However, it costs more to start with alfalfa as the land must be prepared two years ahead and sown one year ahead of the time it is to be used. Also, its greatest growth is in May and Frank Hogg June when onthe aver a e farm there are few pigs to use pasture as the arrtng litters are too small, and very few fall pigs are raised. The p second crop of alfalfa comes in well for later summer pasture for spring pigs Pigs root out alfalfa and soon destroy it if allowed to It is advisable fo put rings in their notes when they are peat (trod ou alfalfa The ordinary grasses ouch as brome and timothy make first cleat pig pas- ture in the spring months, But. as in the came of alfalfa, there are not usually many pigs to 090 pasture at that time. 1st midsummer and fall when pigs need pasture most the grilse pasture is often dry and harsh and not so imitable for pigs. Consequent)), better resting are usually obtained from the annuois crops Stat described. Pastured pigs should be confined to pens for a few weeks at the lest before shipping to market. While on pasture, they take a great deal of exercise, especially if of the more active breeds, and as a result grow web and make good frame, with plenty of lean meat but may not pat on enough fat. fly shutting them up for about three weeks et the last, they make amazing gains in weight, thus increasing the profit, and get into a more finished condition for market. Piga of the more sluggish breeds may be finished on pasture.
