TIIE ter - Mall d for d in us - 1 of the the heir the the un - in ion are of var oss ice ps nd ng ng r - a or ce of ch he ot r ef. r. e e t Success in That Quarter Can Coun aet the Lossee of the Russian in the North.. J. J. L, Garvin, editor of the Pall, Gazette, London ,says: Whatever may 'happen afterwar Flanders, and the keenest appetite eyelets is yet to be fully satisfie that quarter, the way to relieve R sia, neutralize the effect Of the fat Warsaw, destroy all the hopes of Germans in the east and speed whole war is for the western all Britain above all, to concentrate ti full energy and strength upon Dardanelles expedition and upon whole Balkan problem. At Gates of Destiny. There lies the sure key that will lock the gates of destiny. Success this quarter would be the salvat of the armies of the allies. Fail would be unforgiveable on the part some who. axe responsible for 1r diplomacy. There has been a lamentable 1 of precious time through reluctai to face sooner the necessity for ste that were bound to be unavoidable the end. A good deal of incompetent o struction has been cleared away a we are getting at the real meant of terms. No one pretends to regard the Da danelles expedition any longer as secondary undertaking. We must gard it, however, not only as a maj operation, but second in importan to no enterprise whatever in any the fields of war. Facile and shallow minds whi are always taking the obvious for t. true tried to delude us with parr cries about Flanders being the princ pal theatre. No one locality, east o west, .can be the principal theatr War throughout Europe is one wa We have to look for the best line o solution. The best line of solution for th allies in the first instance runs int the more vulnerable of central em pires from the base formed by th Straite, and the Black Sea; by Con stantinople and the Balkans. • Truth About Flanders. Flanders, on the contrary, is th line of most resistance, where an given expenditure of effort ou ou part is likely to have the least effec until the whole German plan for wa on two fronts is fatally beaten by a full and deliberate development of the allies' initiative of war on three fronts. But that is not enough either for us or the allies. Common purpose de- mands for its decisive issue a larger plan and direct attack, which shall unite all the forces of the allies in a war on three fronts, and after dispos- ing of Turkey assail Austria-Hun- gary from the south. In tackling the Gallipoli problem with full means and resolution, we shall be laying the foundation stone for an immense edifice. We shall not only be establishing a military power and a grand alliance upon the Middle front, whence the Germans' position in both east and west ought to be nompromised, but shall enable the concerted action of all the allies to move upon one vast continuous line stretching from England to Flanders, through France, Italy and the Bal- kans into Russia. That conception is mighty, but also practicable. It is magnificent, but it is also war. Von Hindenburg evidently is work- ing might and main to bring off the huge coup of his dreams, which hith- erto always has failed, To Turn Main Line. He hopes to turn inner line of Nie- men on the Bug as completely as he no -w has. turned the outer line on the Vistula. He undoubtedly is throwing every man he can muster into the Baltic provinces far above the Polish triangle, and means to strikeheavily at the Grand Duke's and the main railway connections with Petrograd. The chief junctions aimed at are Vilna and Dvinsk. His forces are not yet within sixty miles of either. The country is shaggy and sodden and in- terminably broken by rivers and lakes and every kind of running and standing water, so that it is in some respects more difficult and dangerous than any. region the Germans yet have enetratedi but they are confident in heir transports, their engineering orps and technical resources of every dad, and in their cavalry,'Which they lope to launch in oyerwheheing mese nd speed.

Report Just Issued Indicates *Reeord. • Yield. • Given normal Weather .until . est, the yield of grain per acre d the 5,000 miles of the Can , Northern Railway in Manitoba, skatchewan and Alberta is al l certain to average high accordin a consolidated report from its a vehicle has just been received. gives an estimated average for w of 24 bushels; oats 54; dnd barle to the acre. In each case, where the agents a range, such as 25 to 30 in estimates, the Canadian Nort adopt the lower -figure, so that average may be regarded as servative. Officers of the comp said that had a middle course followed, the result in all probab would have been 27 or 28 bushel wheat to the acre. When compar is made with the figures of the N West Grain Dealer's Association the average wheat yields in Wes Canada for the last five years, remarkable character of the pros tive showing along C. N. R. lines year is apparent. The figures re red to are: 1910, 12.9; 1911, 18.2; 1 18.6; 1913, 17.0; and last year bushels to the acre. The Canadian Northern aver for wheat 'is compiled from repo from 171 stations between P Arthur and the Rocky Mountains„ International Boundary line and most northerly areas now served its lines. In the Emmerson Distr in Manitoba the estimates run as hi as 30 bushels to the acre, and Rapid City District as high as Dauphin reports 25; Portage Prairie 26; Rossburn 30;and the Sw River District up to 35. Along t main line in Saskatchewan the ports from the Humbolt District r up to 33 bushels to the acre, a estimates up to 30 bushels com rom the North Battleford sectio North-west of that city, Meota, repor 8 to 30 bushels. East of Prin. Albert in Saskatchewan on the nort rn line, Melford estimates are up 0 bushels. The Saskatoon secti stimates go as high as 35, while the indersley division, southwesterly to - yards the Alberta boundary, are es- imated at 35 bushels to the acre. he De Lisle division in approximate - y the same area reports up to 40 ushels to the acre, In Alberta, the anna section, in the south and the Athabasca in the north, estimate., the yield up to 40 bushels per acre. The dmonton Disctrict forecast runs as igh as 35, and Vermilion -Le 30. entre' Alberta and Battle River istrict prospects are given as high s 35. In only a few instances does e estimate fall below 20 bushels, d those statements are widely para,ted. The estimates for oats is rived from the statements of 159 ations and that for barley from 126. The highest forecast for oats comes ora the Elrose District in Saskat- ewan. There the expectation is for. 0 bushels to the acre. Next is the port from the Hanna District at 90 shels. The lowest of all is 20 to 30 shels. In 13arley the highest esti- ate comes from Ardate in the De see District and Dinsmore in Eirose strict, each estimating 60 bushels the acre. The lowest is 15 bushels. rangely enough in each case where averages are given, the next sta- n reports an expectation for yields excellent quantity.

When the whole dress, shirtwaist and skirt, is made in plaited effect, the result is very pleasing indeed.

"I have a boy, two years old, -weigh- ing forty pounds and in perfect health who has been raised on Grape -Nuts and milk. "This is an ideal food and evidently furnishes the elements necessary for a baby as well as for adults. We have lased Grape -Nuts in large quantities and greatly to our advantage." One advantage about Grape -Nuts food is that it is partially pre-digest- ed in the process of manufacture. The starch .contained M the wheat and barley is transformed into a form of sugar by the same method as this 1.g)cess is carried out M the human ody; that is, by the use of moisture and long exposure to moderate warmth, which grotvs the diastase in the grains, and with long baking makes the remarkable change from starch to sugar. Therefore, the most delicate stoin- tieh can handle Grape -Nuts and the food is quickly absorbed into the blood and tissue, eertain parts of it' going directly to building and nour- ishing both body and brain, "There's a Reason."

Letting Well Enough Alone, "Madam," said a doctor one day to the mother of a sweet, healthy babe, "the ladies have deputed me to inquire what you do to have such a happy, uniform good ehild?" The mother mused for a moment over the strangeness of the ques- . tion, and then replied, simply and beautifully: "Why, God has given me a healthy ' I child, and 1 let it alone."

"Darliag, as if I could be," protested the young man, wondering what on earth this was leading up to, "And whatever I ask you to do, will you do it?" "Yes, sweetheart, but----" "Then,"—her sweet voice faltered—"will you burn that horrid red necktie you wear on Sundays?"
