FROM WITLEY CAMP, ENGLAND.
The following letter was i•eceiiied
from Lieut. S. W. Archibald; of the
119th Battalion:
Witter Camp, June 1St, 1917.
Dear Mother --I got your !Ater of

I didn't get theletter enclosing Lieut.
White's letter yet. In •fact I had no

May 13th, but hope to get some of the
letters in between yet,
Well, I have lots to write abouto31
suppose, butthe knack of letter -writ-
ing seems to have left me, bat will do
what I can to give you some news.
As I stated in a letter of a couple of
weeks ago we lost the Major part of
our men and got in a lot of men a
few days later to fill their places. iThe
new men are pretty raw and we are all
working from early in the morning
till late at night, tryiag to make
trained soldiers of them. -Slave a plat-
oon thirty men. all from the 63rd De-

of making trained infantrymen out
of raw artillery men. They are all good
fellows with one or two exceptions -
most of them from the Stites or West-
ern Ontarica One chap, Teeple, an ex -
bank clerk and Methodist minister's
son, tells me- that his father preached
in Seafortheeever twenty years ago;
perhaps you might remember him.
Some of themen come from the 227th
Battalion, which followed us in Al-
goma, and as I was walking down the
line. looking over the tired and dusty
chaps for some boys 1 knew in Maesey
and Webbwood, I thought I heard a
fainiliar voice,. and going over to
where I heard it, whom do you think
I saw? None other than Riassell Hays,

he set eyes on me. He told. methat

The function of the raodetia hen is
to produce eggst ten per cent. of

nine -tenths of the product that is
used for human food? The addition of
a living germ cell to an egg that is
produced fon human food does not add
anything to its value and may set
up a chain of 'embryo developetent

human food.

WEED OUT THE MALE BIRDS.
The worker bees put their house in
order by killing off all the male bees -
as soon as their services are no long-
er required. What a great benefit it -
would be to the poulary producer and
the poultry product consumer if the
hens of the flock would likewise dis-
pose of -the male birds in those flocks
that are indifferently managed. The
worker bee permits no star boarder to
loaf arcenid and consume the product
of her, labor. The hen is not like the
bee in asserting her rights. If she
were, then her verdict would be,
"Rooster you must die"
There are over two million five
hundred thousand roosters of the var-
ious breeds of chickens kept for breed-
ing purposes by the people of the
ceuntry. Of this vast army perhaps
one hundred and fifty thousand have
a right to live for another year of
service. One hundred and fifty thous-
and may be good enough as individ-
uals and in breeding to be used in the
increase of their kind. What of the
two million and three hundred and fif-
ty thousand that are usually permit-
ted to live, birds that consuine feed,
worry the hens, and reduce the qual-
ity of market eggs?
The function of the rooster is to
