Military Terms, and
Meanings For New
gembers..:,,of Our
Armies,
(From, the. Brantford Eepesitor)
This army nomenclature is a bit
confusing, .particularly as it 'seems to
.run largely to alphabetical ablesvia-
tuns. So, for the benefit of theeads
who will soon be doing their tern el:l-
eer the new training scheme; we re-
p:oduce a few items here, with ac-
companying explanations,
First of all the C.O. is the Com-
mending Officer. 2 i/c. stands for
secorelea-comrnand. A Col. • ie..-- of
course, a colonel, and a Lt.-Ool. is a
lieutenant-dblonel; a Capt. a captain;
a Comdt. is a commandant; a Comdr.
is a commander; a Brig. is not a boat
but a brigadier; a.C.Q.M.S. is a com-
pany quartermasteesergeant; C.S.M.,
company. sergeant -major; Cpl., ; Cor-
poral; Bdre bombardier. '
leefore"we forget, D.O.C. means dis-
tette officer commanding, and. G.S.O.,
general staff officer. The A.G. is ad-
jutant -general; D.A.A.. and Q.M.G.,
deputy assistant adjutant sail guar-
termester-general. Popular chap is
the. D.P:M., district paymaster.
N C.0: stands for non-commission-
ed officer; M.O. for medical officer;
0 i/c officer -in -charge; O.R., other
ranks; Sup. 0., supply officer; T.O.,
transport officer; W.O., warrant offi-
cer and also Wee Office.
'Tp. is not township, but troop. Sjt.
is the way they cut short a sergeant
in the array, but you'd better not try
it any other •wayif you value your
comfort. And DON'T call - him
"Serge." It's a homey little term, an
eneearing appellation, but he may not
appreciate it.
: A Lieut., naturally, is a lieutenant,
pronouncee "loo -tenant" in U.Seese
but "leff" in English. •Don't ask us
Vey: There ar etwo kinds of lieuten-
ants, militarily speaking, that is, Jun-
ior is the second lieutenant, vulgarly
designated ."piptequeake on acooupt
f him.weering one star or "pip." 13ut
don't let him hear you making such
allusions. kHis senio: is a: lieuterant.
Rote are called "Mr." Sp is a war-
rant officer first class. '
If you go to an A.D.S. you find
Yourself in -an advanced dressing sta-
tion. A.R.P. may be air raid precau-
tions for the civilians but in'the army
it means 'ammunitionrefilling point.
A.-Tk. isn't a laundry symbol, but
ant -tank. An A.F.V. is an armored
fighting vehicle. Arty, (islet a nick-
name, but artillery. „
Sqn. is a squadron, a Coyi is a
-company, and D.A.D.O.S. stands for
'deputy assistant director of ordnance
Services, in case yeti care Yon won't
like Detn, because It's detention and
if you get a D.C.M. the degree of ac-
companying pl-easure will depend up-
on whether it is a Distinguished Con-
duct Medal or a district court-mar-
t/al.
A -Pd. Arnieis a -field ambulance,
•ceb.le a Fd. Bty. is a field battery.
F.O. doesn't mean aisle out, but field
officer. 'An I.O. is an intelligence
(usually intelligent too) officer. M.P.,
Meinber of Parliament ab home will
mean military police in camp or bar-
rarks. Watch out for 'em. '
Rather important are F. R., field
service regulations. H.Q. i Army for
headquarters. Hrs. means hours.. H.
E. may mean• either 'bigh explosive
or 'horizontal equivalent. Be careful
you don't •get theta mixed.
•An L.A. is a light ''aUtomalic and
a L.M.G. a light machine gun. Handy
thing, too, is an L.G.S. wagon. mean-
ing .a limbered general service cart.
L. of C. are lines of comm
likewise necessary in spots. You
Meet to 'havean also; It's
a manual 91 map reading. More im-
portant is K.R, and 0., King's Rules
and Orders. M.T. is the way y
frequently feel but its official mean-
ing is mechanical transport. M.A.C.
has nothing to do with. the Highland
Light _Infantry; it meats motor Am-
bulance Convoy.
An 0,P.; commonly called an "Oh
Pip" is observation post. R/T Stands
foi radio-telephoney. R.T.O. le 'rail-
way transport officer, an important
personage now and then. Though you
may not recognize it. Recce. Is re-
cohneiseeneie. S.A.A. signifies -small
arm a,mMifilitien. An .'8,C. Is a staff
ria.phaln and a Sup. 0. a supply offi-
Cei•. In ease yeu need one, a W.W.
C.P. is a Walking -Wounded eolleeting

Pasture ;Lands
• Being Invaded
No weed is spreading so rapidly in
Ontario today as, Wild Carrot, states
John' D. MacLeod, Crops, Seeds, and
Weeds Branch, leetario Department of
Agriculture, Toronto. This biennial
weed of European 'origin is similar in
many respects to our 'cultivated car-
rot. It has a deep, strong, tap root,
a bristly etern, eand much divided
leaVei. Milkers- of white floeree
curl up when mature. Seeds .are tone-
eigath of an inch long ridged and
bear four rows of spines,which as-
sist in their distribution.,
The roat has an odor similar to
that of the cultivated carrot. This
is one positive. Means of identifying
it, Flowers my be observed from
July to October, propagation by seeds
which mature from August to Novem-
ber. Wild Carrot will not become, es-
tablished where a short rotation of
crops and thorough . eietivation is
practised. It is Ione ortinterices most
objectionable weeds in permanent
pastures, old . meadaws, roadsides,
fence lines and occasionally in poor-
ly ,cultivated fields.
It is of 'Vital importance that seed-
ing be prevented as, thousands of
seeds , may- :be produced on an aver-
age plant. These may remain on the
pleat until late fall and winter, when
they may beacanied miles over froz-
en ground and in di:Meg snow, there-
by Westing new areas. Birds, live-
stock, water and man also are re-
sponsible for the. clistributiton of seed.
The following methods of eradication
are suggested;
1. Sow clean clover and grass seed.
2. Pull or seed out scattered plants;
rogue the clover and' grass seed crop;
cut badly „infested fields early for
hay.

Makes Good Record
• Dalton Malcolm, 'R. R. 2, Dublin,
won high praise when heeseored a
500 mark out Of a possible 5'50 in

3. Break up infested meadows and
pastures.. and practise thorough culti-
vation and a short rotation of crops.
4. Mow meadows and pasture fields
when plan-ts are in the early bloom
stage. A second or third mowing
may be necessary in order to pre-
vent seeding. If plants are too fai•
advanced, rake up and burn. ,
5. Pasture infested area closely
with sheep.
6. Start early after harvest culti-
• vation immediately after the crop has
been removed anebultivate until late
fall.
7. Spray with a chemical weed kill-
er. Cutting of wiid carrot has prov-
en to bea discouraging and costly
operation. A 100 per cent eradication
is possible by the use of chemicals,
at costs less than that which weed
bp spent for cutting with the Added
advantage of , affecting a co•melete
The value of many pasture 'fields
and farms 'has been lowered consid-
erably due to the prevalence of :Wild
