alI/LE Germany's ttetnal
Baia powar. expressed In
submarthea cannot be
exactly deterrnioed by -
the Allies, naval melt ewho have
access tit daily and weekly re-
ports, and shipbuilding eXperte
who can estimate very. close-
ly ' Germany's production caw°
city, .believe they nave- a fairly ate
curate - idea Of the truth. .They re-
gard it as a liberal concession to say
that Germany.does not possess more
than 125 submarines, Some of them
estimate the nutn-ber at not over 100. -
And there seems to be 'a general
agreement that Germany rarely 11
ever has in excess of thirty Ohms.
rines at sea at one time.
For the past year and more there -
have been all kinds of roroantic.tales,
about the number and tie . size of
German submarines. G rinany
been credited with possessing any-
where from -20 to 400 undersea
tteraft, and there have been " yarns
-440 inflimarin.e dreadnoughts run-
-14hr up to 5,000 tons displacement.
Twerrmpnths ago somebody pre-
dicted that -4 her rate _of construct
tion- GernienY muld have in service
thoingandsub ethane at the end of
a:fnar.. There hag been talk of .heav-
ilY irmored''Suipmftrines, ca,pable of
fwithetanding, the'impact of five and
six -Inch shells. There were tales of
• 22-ktiet submartnes, and even faster
ones, capable of overtaking the aver,
age passenger liner.- .
No*, all these stories, in the belief
of naval/ experts have emanated from
German sources and have been
spread abroad for the purpose of
treating fear and panic. No man
has yet seen one of these submarine
-.leviathans whose advent has been re-
ported. Certainly none of the mane
submarines that have been captured
by the British and allied banal forces
fill the specitications. There is no
authentic testimony concerning any
submarine that displaces more than.
1,000 tons, and • most of them have
been smaller than that. A .1,000 -ton
submarine is a big fellow, .some 300
feet in length, approximately match-
• ing in size the modern destroyer.
The heavily armored submarine is
unknown. There are some that Carry
light armor about their -conning tow-
ers and along the upper deck, but
they will not resist five or six-inch
shells,or even a well placed three-
inch shot. The armor of the sitbma-
• rines is concealment, and this is tes-
tified by the anxiety they displayin
disappearing from sight under at-
tack by light naval craft. If they
were armored to match the German
tales they could fearlessly come to
the surface and engage in stand-up
fights with destroyers—a thing that
has never yet been attempted.
•.At the outset of the war Germany
was generally credited with some
• seventy of much smaller size than
the modern type. Taking, into consid-
eration Germany's shipyard capacity
and allowing -that she may have con-
centrated most of her efforts on sub-
marine construction since that time,
. it is the best judgment of naval ex-
perts that never at any time did She
have more than 200 submarines. Her
shipyards no longer possess their
original capacity. There have been
heavy inroads on the men, and even
heavier reduction in tbe matter of
raw material. It is regarded as cer-
tain that not one of the original sub-
marine fleet she had at the time the
war began is now in service. Most of
the;first batch have been destroyed,
others worn out.
There .is , no doubt that Germany
rapidly increased, the nunaber of her
submarines !for a time-; that was be-
fore the Alliies began to make head-
way against: them. Within the last
year Germany's submarine strength
has been receding, especially within
the last six months. The most rapid
construction of which the Germans
are capable -does not now, equal the
rate of destruction. -
Whatever Germany's actual capa-
city for stibmarine construction,
naval men have proved to their own
• satisfaction that they can sink and
capture undersea craft more rapidlY
than they can be built. The average
number at sea each day at this time
• is known to be Appreciably less than
the average number six or eight
months, ago. When Germany started
her ruthless campaign she began
playing havoc with Allied shipping,
but she also risked her own undersea,
craft in a wholesale way. She gave
the 'Antes opportunity to destroy
more, and the Allies have done so.
Making allowances for the cruising
limitation ,of submarines, for the
fact that their crews require periodi-
cal rests, for the further fact that It
,is extremely difficulty to train officers
and mon for this .kind of work, and
deducting the necessary periods that
must be devoted to overhaul a-nd re-
pair, the estimate is that Germany
cannot maintain more. than_ thirty
such craft at sea at any time.
Of course," course," a moral expert re-
marked to -day, "thirty enemy sub-
marines is thirty too many. But it
is a ,,vholti lot less than the yarns of
a huadred or mon.. Thirty subma-
rines turned loose in the shipping
lanes can do an extraordinary
amount of damage. As a matter of
cold cannelation they ought to do
more damage than they are doing.
The fact that they do not is a ene
testimonial to the growing etTerliVe-
118SS of the campaign that is being
made against them. What I mean is
• that the submarine has beeome a far
eiore vulnerable .type than we be-
lieved it was a year or two ago. We
rated it too low .at the beginning, of
the war. Then we rated it altogether
Loo high; but that was because we
had not made rapid at.: anees against
It. Now we rate It somewhere be-
tweenethe maximum and the mini-
mum, with its effectiveness against
new methods of attack steadily
twindling. As things are going now,
if this war lasts long enough, Ger-
many will have no submarin<is at

men of t ranee, had iousibeliered to
be, witSothira of the leading states -
be a mai of unscrupulous personal
ambition who was poisoning the pelt-
' tical iife of:Frazee. •
The substance of the charge
against M. Caillaux Is that since
1011, when the Agadir Incident in
Morocco nearly caused a rupture be-
tween Germany and France, he has
acted consisteatly in the German in-
terests to the detri.aent ofehis own
country and that he has tried to se-
duce Italy from loyalty to the en-
tente, again in the interests of Ger-
many.
"Caillaux se croft Napoleon,
Clemenceau has said. His domtnant
belief in himself and his titter in-
difference as to the means to an end
have succeeded in hypnotizing less
courageous men into a belief in his
genius for leadership and power.
But the accumulated evidence of
Catilaux's intrigue has at last prov-

With the close a the famous' trial
against his wife it . was supposed
that Caillaux"s career was at an end,
but nevertheless he was able to se -
'cure the post of Paymaster -General
In the French army, and evidence has
accumulated to show that he has
_used his post,since the beginning of
the war to conspireagainst his
country.
Among his war plots was a con-
spiracy against General Joffre, in
which he had the support of the
Socialiet-Radical party, of which be
has been virtual chief, and it is prov-
`-ed beyond peradventure that he has
''nersistently tried to arrange a separ-
ate peace between France and Ger-
many that would leave Great Britain,
Belgium, and Russia in the -lurch.
"Can we forget," writes Gustave
HerVe in the Paris Victoire, "that
during his lest trip to Italy he point
promised himself with the fine flower
of Italian pacifism, .and that the.

was acquitted.- During one of his
terms of office as Minister of Fln-

That clerk was rapidly promoted.
After a time the wife divorced the
clerk and married Caillaux. • Theulhe

A BRILLIANT LAWYER.
VERY clever Tory law-
yer, a rising hope of his
party, and not at all a
bad fallow" is Lord
Morley's description of Sir F. E.
Attorney -General of, England,
!who recently paid a flying visit to
'Canada.
,A man of forty-five. who, . with
his slim figure, long natcb.et face,
scornful lip, defiant eye, hair oiled
and smooth, looks ten or fifteen
years younger. A barrister who in
his private practice has an income
variably. estimated at between $150,-
000 and ;2 00,000 a year. A politi-
cian who ranks among the leading
statesmen in England, who has
risen to this pinnacle since 1906, and
upon whom many of his fellow -
countrymen profess to see the man
upon whom the mantle of Prime
Minister will fall at no distant date.
Such, in a word, is Sir Frederick
Smith. ,
Sir Frederick has forced his; way
to the front rank with Churchillien
pushfulness and meteoric brilliance.
He has been described as a man of
the most humble origin. This de-
scription is somewhat misleading.
His father was a member of the
bar, with a considerable practice,
1Who in his youth enlisted in the
ranks of a line regiment for a bit
of military service. In those cleat'
such men were referred to as "com-
mon soldiers."
Sir Frederick's father was never
burdened with great expense in giv-
ing "F.E."—for „as such he is Conl-
MODly known—an education. He
SIR F. E. EMIT4
was so clever a lad that he -;won one
scholarship -atter another Ike such
numbers that the income they yield-
ed more than paid for his schooling
at Birkenhead and afterward at Ox-
ford, where he carried everything
before him in the waY of well-paid
fellowships and • h.onors. In 1906 he
entered Parliament unknown and un-
tried. When he rose to make biz
maiden speech the occupants of Gov-
ernment benches looked upon him as
a country lawyer who was about to
wreck the opportunities of his future
and be humiliated by veteran politi-
cal opponents, whose rapier thrusts
a7ways sought the vulnerable points
of the younger members. but with-
in half an hour the whole House
realized that young Smith was a
man of exceptional ability.
Scholar and lawyer as he is, , his
manner- in public speech and in ad-
dressing a jury, is apt to be entirely
unrestrained and not at all an ex-
ample of what one would expect of
Oxford culture. He has been liken-
ed in his powers of sarcasm and epi-
gram to Disraeli and in his full-
blooded capacity for abuse to a very
gifted eester-monger. Meeting Sir
Frederick for the first time inesociety
and observing his appearance of
langour, or listening to hisquiet,
soft, and low -toned drawl, no one
would dream of the torrential and
vitrolic character that sometimes
distinguishes his eloquence.
Until the formation of the
coalition Government Sir Frederick
was the bitter political adversary et
Winston Spencer Churchill. The
barbed shafts of oratory which they
were wont to hurl at each other at
public meetings always seemed to
search out the most vulnerable
points in their respective armor. But
in private life Sir .Frederick and

given the task of organizing the Brit-

clared. In this position he became
virtually editor-in-chief of all the
English papers as well as of all

that be should have emerged from
this pitfall of an office with increas-
ed reputation for cleverness. But he
must have become impatient as a
censor, for it lacked the action he
desired. Sir Frederick relinquished
this post to go to the front, and for
almost eight months he battled with
the Germans, gaining the admiration
of his superiors for his military effi-
ciency.

CONDITIONS FOR SUCCESSFUL
BEE -KEEPING
The first requisite for successful
bee -keeping is that the owner of the
bees should be interested in them. He
will then study their waa- and will
learn to manage them well. He will
learn from bee books and journals as
well as by experience, and also, per-
haps, from the friendly advice of a
bee -keeping neighbor.
Another important condition. is an
abundance of honey -producing flowers
within a mile or two -of the apiary.
There is hardly place in the settled
parts of Canada where this condition
is not fulfilled to some. extent. The
kinds of 'plant that produce the bulk
of the surplus honey, are not many.
By far the most important are alsike
and white clover found am almost every
farm, and most plentiful; of, course,
where they are grown for hay, pas-
ture, or seed. In southerly Alberta
and the dry interior, of British Co-
lumbia, clover yieldj first place to
alfafa, and in the se t -cleared lands,
of the north to fire ood (Epilobium
angustifolium) a promising honey
plant which is now the subject or a
special investigation he the Bee Di-
vision of the Experimental Farms.
Among minor sources of surplushoney
are buckwheat and basswood in south-
ern Ontario and south-western Que-
bec; goldenrod and aster, principally
in eastern Canada; wild raspberry,
sweet clover, Canada thistle and var-
ious weeds. Red clover is an example

lect it,
A third factor of great importance
is suitable weather for the develop-
ment of the honey plant and for the
nec-
tar.
secretionrnthe

eluding White and alsike clover, a
moderately wet spring followed by
o
fine, warm weather when the pints
are in full bloom, produces the best
results. In such a season it is net
' unusual to get 150 pounds of honey
per colony in a good clover district.
On the other hand, continuous rain or
broken weather during the honey flow,
may prevent the productioa of any
surplus honey. We cannot forecast
the weather in any part of the eountry
so that the honey crop is an 'uncertain
as any farm crop. In 1915 the highest
yield per coloney froni clover Was
obtained, in Nova Scotia; in Oniatrio,
the crop was only moderate, and in
the lower mainland of British Colum-
bia a failure. In 1916 Nova Scotia
gave ies than tse age, Quebec, ehatano
and Manitoba.far above the average,
and the lower mainland of B. Columbia

; The rise of sugar has been reflected
e in the honey market. In the last two
years the demand for honey has been
very great; the price has msen,-3 to 5
cents a -pound within the past few -
months, and white extracted honey at
the time of writing is being quoted
at 14 to 17 cents per poundeveholeaalee
Bee -keeping needs but little capital,.

a vacant lot in. the city, and is not par-
ticularly laborious. .The bees require

knowledge and foresight being needed
to do all that is necessary -until filet

The Submarine of Parly Dates. stl,
The submarine played an import-

of 1811-4. The Federal corvette
Housatonic was sun.k by this means,.
but the attacking submarine and its
