From London the news came last week that the Kingdom of Siam had declared that a state of war existed between Germany and Austria. The despatch added that all Germans and Austrians residing within the eon - fines of the Kingdom had been ar- rested and that their ,plaees of busi- ness had been closed. Also that nine Teutonic steamers aggregating 19,- 000 tons, lying at anchor within Si- amese waters, had been seized and their cargoes confiscated. -,- The des- patch states as the object of Siam's declaration to "uphold the eanctity of international rights against nations showing conteilipt for the principles of hinnanity and respect for sznall state-" In population Siam is one of the smallest states. Although aleout the ;area of France, she has but lit- tle over nine raillion .persons in her kingdom. From her geographic pos- ition she ;is practically hidden from the usual globe trotter.

About 200 pounds of good, durable clothing has been sent to the llospi- tal Elleabeth by Mrs. W Walker, in response to an appeal made by Pt. Ross Herminston, Listowel, who is now in Belgitma. In addition to tide fifty pounds have been seat by the Ladies Aid of First Presbyter- aau elunnh.

Hospital Elizabeth', Poperinghe, Belgium, July 12; 1917 TRACTORS FOR FALL PLOWING Dear Sir: —A few weeks ago a number of Farmers of this section in- timated their intention of securing tractors for fall plowing and suggest ed the advisability of the Informa- tion Bureau of the Seaforth Food Production Association negotiating with, the Department of Agriculture with the view of securing a tractor for that parpose. Through the cor- respondence with the Department it was ascertained the Government had,a fleet of sixty tractors designated for various portions of the Province and the farmers of Huron in. ease of spec- ial need could secure the service of one or more of these tractors. The terms of the agreement to be entered into between the Department of agrieulture and the farmer states "itheifarmer pays 45e per hour while the tractor is at work, plus the cost of lubricating oil and -fuel. He also pays the board of the meehanic who is operating the tractor. Up. to the present tins has cost the farmer any- where from al. to a2.50 per acre." This shows the Government furnishes the use of the tractor free plus the cost of operating the ma.chirie. On Tuesday last there was a dem- onstrtion of two traetors at work on the Neilson farm near Toronto un- der the direction of the Resources Committee, and th.e machines proved to a great improvement on the old Norse plowing system. They plod- ded along at a rate of more than two miles an hour, turning over three furrows as they went. One of these machines, drawing a two furrow plow, can turn over five acres of land in a ten hour day, whereas by the old system not more than one and a half acres can be turned over in the same tittle. They require the attention of only one man. With the aid of These machines it hoped is by the Provineial Govern- s° many supphee already. That is ment to reclaim for the sowing of the fault of the Jews of the Algimex, lath crops the half million acres ol FROM THE FIRING LINE Th following letter is from Jake Sproat, eon of Mr. and MTS. James Sproat of Egmondville, who has been on the firing line for about two years, France, July 8, 1917, Dear FZ1Its,—Well it is a. long time since I wrote you but as I always ex- pect you will be hearing all about the war and things in general. The sum- mer is nearly half over and if we have to stay another winter in this country it -will break more than one heart. I have experienced s two win- ters and they are no joke. -Of course useful te us: Some pinafores and in summer we do a great deal more overalls for 25 babies from. two to fighting, but that is what we eame here for, and such battles as Ypres, Somme and Vimy Ridge always add Dear Mrs. Walker:—How kind of you to have sent us such nice bundles of elothing for our poor refugee chil- dren. They arrived very quickly and safely and if you are kind enough to send us as you tell us, borne more, I really think it is the safest and quickest way. A part of your pres- ents have been given to a creche' where we have a number of babies from a few days to four years old, some of which are orphans, and oth- ers children whose parents live in very dangerous places 'quite near the firing line. Those places are contine ually shelled. We go and take them there and keep them until the place has become safe again. The iitleer part of your generous gifts is given -ha refugee children whose parents have had to fly holm their homes without being able 'to save the least thing. There are around here—such a number of these poor things—niany of them that have been rich and hap- py before feel more than others these privations, I send you a pa,per this same post telling you all 'about our work.

You should tui- derstand that all soldiers, because they are in France, are not in any danger, in fact a number have better mumoutulings than they had in Can- ade, and, more so men of higher rank, In fachonly the infantry b.ave to face Fritz in the front line and we are the only walking branch of the army that feel and give the real thing.
