PEAS—THE STOCKMAN'S CROP.
The high prices- at which peas have
;old. on the market for the last two
years has given a decided impetus
to their production. Can.adian pro-
duction in 1917 exceeded the previous
year by nearly a million bushels. This
is as it should be. The production
of peas is lower than that of any Of
the cereals. Insect pests, diseases and
the low price decreased the produc-
tion of this important legume' pre-
vious to the -war, but since then, due
to the rapidly risipg price of last
three years, the acreage has bee
greatly increased, especially in -the
provinces of !Quebec, Saskatchewan
and Alberta. When we consider the
numerous ways in which one can ut-
ilize this crop either -in the seed or on
the vine it is surprisigg. that pea

hard fight. Twice the Germans
gained a foothold in our trench, but
had been driven out by counter-at-
tacks. The- trendh Was filled • with
their dead and ours. Through a per-
iscope, j counted- eighteen dead Ger--
mans in our wire; they were a ghast-
ly sight in their, horrible looking res-
piraters.
I examined my first smoke hehnet, a
bullet had gone through it oit the left
side, just grazing my ear, the gas had
pentirated through the hole made ni
the cloth.
0 t of our crew -Of six, we lost two
kill d
i
and two wounded.
That night we buried all of the dead,
excepting- those in No Man's -Land. In
death there is not much distinction,
friend. and foe are treated alike.
After thd wind had dispersed the
gas, the R.A.M.C., got busy with
chemibal sprayers, spraying out the
dugouts and low parts of the trenches
to dissipate any fumeidof the German
gas which may have been lurking in
same.
Two days after the gas attack, .I
was sent to Division Headquarters, in
answer to an order requesting that
captains of units should detail a man
leihom thee thought capable of passing
an examination for the Divisiomd In-
telligence Department.
efore leaving- for this assignment
I went along the front line trench say-
ing good-bye to my mates and lorded
it over them, telling them that I had
clicked a cushy job behind the lines,
and how sorry I felt that they had to
stay in the . front line and argue out
the war with Fritz. They were en-
vious but still good .natured, and as
Tlefti_the treneth tog° to the rearithey
:Shouted after .ine: -
"Good luck, Yank, old boy, don't.
forget to send up a few fags to your
old mates."
I promised to do this and left.
I reported at Headquarters with
sixteen others and passed the requir-
ed examination. Out of the sixteen
applicatants four were selected. • .
I was highly elated -because 1 was,
as I thought, in for a cushy job back
at the base.
Then next morning the four report-
ed. to Division Headquarters for in-
structiandae Two of the men. were sent
to Urge . twins in the -rear ot the lines
with an easy job. When it came to
our turn, the officer told us* we were
naiad men and had passed a very cred-
itable examination. •
My tin hat' began to get to small
for me6 and I noted that the other
mare Atwell, by name, was sticking
his chest out more than. usual.
The officer continued: "I think I
can use -mu two men to great advan-
tage in the front line. Here are your
orders and instructions also the pass
which gives von full authority as spec-
ial M.P. detailed on intelligence work
Report at the front line according to
your instructions. It is risky work
and I wish You bath the 'best of luck."
My heart dropped to zero ' and At -
well's face was a study': We saluted
asonuandiaeetfdvery ominous'in our earsif
t.
Th •
wishing us the !`best of luck"
he had said "I wish you both a swift
and painlese death" it would have been
more to, the point.
" When we had read our instructions
we knew we were in far it good and
plenty. !
What Atwell said is not fit for pub-
lication, but I stronglY seconded 'his
opinion of the war, Army, and Di-
visional Headquarter § in general.
After a bit our spirits arose. We
were full-fledged spy -catchers, be-
cause our instructions and orders said
,
so. ,
We immediately reported to the
nearest French estaininet arid had sev-
eral glasses of muddy water, which
they call beer. After drinking our
beer we •left the estaminet, and hailed
an empty ambulance.
After showing the driver our passes
we got in. The driver was going to
the part of the line where we had to
report.
The ambulance was a Ford and lived
up to its reputation.
How the wounded ever survived a
ride in it was inexplicable to me. It
was worse tham riding on a gun car-
riage over a rocky road.
The driver of the ambulance was a
corporal of the R. A .M . C . , and he had
the "wind up," that is, , he had an
aversion to being under fire. '
I Was riding on. a seat with him
while Atwell was sitting. in the ambul-
ance with his legs hanging out of the
back.
As we passed through a shell -des -
strayed village a .mounted military
policeman stopped ua and informed the
driver to be very careful when we got
out on the open read, as it was very
dangerous, because the Germans late-
ly had acquired the habit of shelling
it. The Corporal hsked the trooper if
there was any other way around, and
was informed that there was not. Up-
on this he got very nervous, and want-
