The real sea peril was in 1916, said tf. Leygues, :but the Alliednavies had checked the submarine war. Sol- diers and foodstuffs were now pour-' ng into France. The Germans had boasted that American armies would. never approach the French shores and bring victuals and reinforce- ments to France. The Germans came near fulfilling their dreata, but, tivaiks to the immense efforts put forward by the French navy, the Ger- man plan had ended in failure, Admiral. Bienaime, Deputy tor the Seine, also gave praise to the French and Allied navies. He said Gertnany s submarine war was dead. Accidents might still happen, he added, but German piracy had been vanquished. Leygues has also published a 4laterne-nt regarding the manner in which the Allied navies have con- quered the submarine peril. He men- tioned the fact that Viscount Jellicoe had foretold that the U-boat cam- eaign would be conque.Ted by August, 1918. This prophecy has p,roved true. Although ships are being sunk, the Allied navies are now sinking Ger- man submarines more quickly than they can •be launched. When the Germans cannot build II -boats as quickly as 'they are destroyed, victory' must rest with the British, Ameri- cans and French in the contest against frightfulness. MEDICAL DR.

When flying in a cloud which ob- acurea the horizon, says "light," it is very difficult for a pilot to tell whether or not his machine is on an even keel. -It is true that he will be able to tell from his speed indicator whether !ns is flying level or along a sloping path, but if at the same time the machine is making a turn this is dif- ficult to feel, as it may be ;very slight. The compass should, theoretically, indicate a turn, but what frequently happens is this: A ma.ch.ine enters a cloud, and the pilot watches his com- pose and speed indicator to see if - he is keeping on his course! .He then notices that the compass needle be- gins to move, and rudders in the op- posite direction to cheek the turn. -As he can.see nothing except his machine, the horizon being ivisible through the clouds, he is very` apt to overcorrect, with the result that the machine begins to turn the other way. The rudder is then put over in thefopposite directien, and very like- ly Overcorrection again occurs. In this way athe, machine swerves from side to side, each turn being accom- panied by a bank. If this bank be- comes steep the machine will prob- ably get her nose down and the speed indicator will register a high veloc- ity. As the pilot may not: be aware of the amount of basak, he ;will in- stinctively pull his control lever to- ward him in order to pull the ,ma - thine out of the nose dive, _ If the machine is steeply banked the eleva- tors will not flatten out the machine, since they are in a position somes whera near the vertical and there- fore act as rudders. The compass continues to swing, and before long the pilat may not have the slightest idea of what is really happening to his machine until he emerges from the eland." An Experienee.

More knowledge along these lines is certainly desirable in view of the fact that of the millien and more species in. the animal world the larg- est place is held by the insects. Per- haps their significance may be better realized from the fact that the an- nual. loss by insects in the United States is $800.000,000, compared with an annual fire loss of $143,- 000,090. As over against 7,000 deaths per year due to railroad acci- dents, there are 97,200 deaths each year in the republic to the south of us due to mailaria and intestinal dis- easesespread by insect carriers.

Children have been .terri- fied by the superstition that the dragonfly, or "devil's 'darning nee- dle," would pierce their ears, or sew them shut. Yet the dragonfly is not only harmless to man, but is one of f nds in that he is the deadly enemy of the Mosquito — that pest that is one of the rdost numer- ous, widely distributed and persist- ent of the creatures that menace the health and comfort of man. So much is the dragonfly the mosquito's 'enemy that be is called the "mosquito hawk"—and anyone who has watch- ed the swift movements and cruel aspect of the dragonfly as he darts at his prey will agree that the n.ame is well givea. As both the mosquito and dragonfly are semiaquatic, the warfare between the two begins ear- ly, the young of the dragonfly feeding on the young mosquito, just as the adult dragonfly preys on th.e full- grown mosquito. As serious blood. maladies are known to be transmit- ted by the mosquito; the dragonfly's srvice to man is no small one. At one timee in fact. it was undertaken to breed dragonfies artificially with the purpose of exterminating the mosquito; but the plan was found impracticable and was abandoned. - Another beneficial insect is the var- iety of Australian beetle which was used with brilliant success to etise the, orange orchards of.the nation. The so-called "Austrian lady -beetle" Was pitted against the destructive scale insect which threatened.ruin to the orange industry.. The beetle exterm- inated the 'scale. Parasitic wasps at- tack caterpillars and sting them to death, laying eggs in the dead- bod- ies of their ;victims, so that their yoeng, when hatched, may find abun- dant and convenient nourishment. The wheat midge, so destructive to the grain, is preyed on by several in- sects Ravenous two -winged flies seize and carry it away to suck oivt its juices. But most powerful of its insect- foes are its parasites—Small, , black, four -winged flies -somewhat re- , sembling ants. Their young subsist on the larvae and eggs of the midge, ' ..aidd live therein. As the' midge in.- ' creases; numbere, its enemy in-, creases proportion, for the n.urao bers or the parasites depend on the amount of available nourishment. Eventually' the parasite overwhelms the midge. This is illustrated by the fact that often, a year air two after an excess of midges there is a great Scarcity of the noxious insect.

Do not feed the birds for the firet day they are shut up. You should give them something to drink, but it is best to give no feed.

College, Guelph: Importance of Attending Exhibition. Pall exhibitions are a permanent feature in the life of Ontario, and are of particular interest and import to the farmer and his family. True, many of the smaller shows might be greatly improved by the introduction of more new educative features, 'and some of the larger exhibitions have been criticized in the past for tardi- ness in placing agriculture in .it due place, but at the present time, with things agricultural to the fore -front as they are, exhibition managements realize the value of a strong agricul- tural and live -stock depantment and are making this a leading feature of their work. In face, no fall fair, large or small, could exist let alone 'prosper; without the products ph the farm well represented, Bearing this in mind, it is impor- tant that all attend their local fall fair and their nearest large exhibi- tion.
