C.CORDING to _reports coming
over from Berlin, Germany,
,like the true . sentimentalist
she has always_ `!ween, has de-
l cided to take her defeat in a style
worthy of the ancient Romans. Not
the least .theatrical In tie play of
events there is the rise of a Bolshe-
vist party under - the leadership of
Karl Liebknecht. Not satisfied with,
the ultra -modern name of Bolshevik',
this leader has gone back into the
archives of Rome•kand has emerged'
with a treasure of a name for his
followers, the Spartacus group, or
the Spartacid.es, as they are now coni-
. monly called. -
1 -a recent despatch it :was stated
that Liebknecht, exponent of anti-
militarism, addressed the populace of
Berlin, calling them to rally to his
side, from a :truck protected by good,
militaristic 'machine guns. So, per-
haps, he imagines the Roman slave
stood, surrounded by the weapons of
warfare of his own time and fashion,
for the famous address, beloved of
all schoolboys, which has been put
into his mouth.

be challenged and a demand made
that the people pronounce on the
matter by means of a referendum.
The California incident is not, it is
to be hoped, characteristic of the
campaign that has been carried on
by the prohibitionists. There, a few
months ago, the issue was placed
squarely before the electorate, and
prohibition was soundly beater largely
because California has a very import-
ant wine industry. But .the Legislat-
ure that was =elected at the same time
that the people flatly declared against
prohibition ignored the vote and, de-
cided for ratification. However
worthy the Motives of the, politicians,
they Were surely . guilty of flouting
the plainly expressed desires of the I
€`.alifernians. Their•b td faith may be 1
eventually punished at the polls, but,
"although the deed was foully done,
the loon was weel awa." In the mean.-
time,
ean=time, the United States goes dry atad
the Californian industry is ruined.
There is some prospect now that
the various-- states will make the
ratifications of the prohibition amend-
' ment unaniinAus; .-z v pal ticianal
whether 'they .believe the majority ne
their •constituents favorable to the
ratification, will vote for it.' This is
predicted even;of New. Jersey, the one
one state in the Union admitted by
the prehibitionst to be naturally wet
Pennsylvania. is also supposed to be
wet, for the State Senate is undoubt-
edly ofthat persnasion but if the Sen:
ate sees a big prohibition sentiment
spreading all, over the country, it es
not likely to old out to the end. -The
hope :or 41*. 4 ' ► i r- interests, then,::
cannot lie wwith.the remainin legislat-
ive strc ngholds of the traf c. What
they expect its that when. the queteion
is taken - bef ere the kited States
Supreme' Court that body niay rule
that the amendment is unconstitutional
that the court may decide no_Legisiat-
ure has the right to surrender to the.
Federal Government any, of the per-
sonal. individual rights of a citizen of
the state. This particular questions
has never been decided upon -by the
Supreme Court, although it has held
in a general way that a state has the
right to surrender to the Federal
Government any rights the state it-
self possesses. t, Is authority over the
personal liberty of a citizen one of the
rights. now inherent in a State?
It is a fact somewhat angrily com-
mented upon by some of the large
newspapers, most of which are
either openly hostile or covertly
satirical concerning prohibition, that
this treinendous question this revo-
lution in theihabits of many !millions
of American people, is being, deter-
mined without the people having
been given an opportunity to declare
themselves. -Prohibition has never
been voted on by the American peo-
ple. Neither great party has adopt-
ed it as'platform. Prohibitionist
candidates for the Presidency and
for other federal offices, have never
risen above the joke class. Another
claim that usedto be frequently
heard, to the effect . that a minority
of people were imposing their will.

as is true in most rapidly .rising mili-

in ° tthe ranks of the victorious slaves
and' the army divided in two, some
going to the side of one Crixus, a
rival leader, the rest standing fii'ni
by Spartanus. All the members of
the ranks were, however, agreed on
one point, that to the victorious
army belonged the spoils of their
conquests. As a result, much against
the wishes of Spartacus, the soldiers;
drunk with power, pillaged, raped
and plu fdered the country in 'a man-
ner vastly superior to that. of their

course, the superior forces of the

AMERICAN CAMEL IS IN
THE SADDLE
There is every prospect that within
.'a year from now the United- States
will be under a prohibition law which
makes it a criminal offence to•manu-
facture, transport or -sell alcoholic
liquors for beverage purposes. For
some time past the United States- has
been prohibiting. the importation of
any kind of liquor, so with none to "be
made or none to be imported, the law, j
if it is enforced, will make drinking
a thing _ of the past once existing
sto,Cl s are consumed. Indeed, some
of the organizations that have fought
the Rum Demon wish to go a step
further and make the possession of
intoxicating liquor a criminal offence.
Should they gain their point private
cellars will be invaded and the offend-
ing drink taken out and poured down
the sewers while the owners thereof
are lugged off to the calaboose. Nation-
al prohibition is due to arrive in . the
United States on January 16, 1920, but
it may arrive six months earlier. As
a war measure an Act was passed to
the effect that there should be -no man-
ufacture or sale of intoxicating liquor
after .Julys 1, 1919, until the demo-
biliation of the American Army.
At the time President -Wilson sign-
ed this order, of course, nobody knew
the war would now be over. It might
have gone on for years, and the United
States Government calculated that if
it were to •continue the nation could
not afford to direct any of its energies
to the manufacture or consumption of
intoxicants#. • Now that the "war is
over (or - is it?), the measure goes in-
to effect just the same and remains .
until the army is demobilized. If .'
complete demobilization is not accom-
plished before July 1 text,- This tre-
mendous vietorp for the prohibitionists :
has been brought about by' a change
in the American Constitution. That
document provides that -if may be

theoretically, that thirty-six states

that according to the last census re-

tion of less than 34,000,000' in the

The brown bread, is now so bad
that most kpeople cannot- eat it. In
consequence every new bread card
period shows greater demand for the
so-called -"white bread" which: in
reality is gray. In Amsterdam alone
25,000 more white bread cards had
to be issued. From well infornmed
sources I learn that the bad. quality
of the brown bread is caused by the
addition to the flour of a quantity
of pea meal which was "partially"
spoiled; but "cleaned" again. Since
the more regular arrival of grain
ships from America the white bread
is to be made of better quality --for
instance, the linseed meal is to be
eliminated from its composition.
Order Everything Early.
Spraying is something that can- -
not wait. It must be done at deft --
mite time, Pailure to do it then
means failure to get clean fruit. Ex-
peri+ence shows there fe no one factor
so important in obtaining a good crop
as spraying, Therefor9 apply bust -
fleas -like fnrethoughit to it.- - Estimate
at once how much.material you will
need and place your order for this
not later than : March 1st with deli-
nite instructions to have it shipped
to you by the first wesk in April.
If you have to purchase a new out-
fit filed* out the make You think best
and have it shipped just as soon as
possible. Run no risk of its not be-
ing on hand when required., If the
old outfit is to be used de not. fail to
overhaul and test it out in March or
early April. Don't leave it until the
first day of spraying. If you- have to -
send it away to be repaired remrom-
ber that many others will be doing
the same and if, you postpone sending
until April you will in the rush of
work have to wait your turn and may
not get it back until } after spraying 1
has begun. This often. happens. _
What • discourages and annoys .you
most when spraying? Is it not delays
and poor pressure? With proper
foresight and a little knowledge of
the mechanism of your engine and
pump you can almost entirely -pre-
vent this annoyance, discouragement
and loss of time and money; so learn
to do your own repairing as far as
possible, pack your own pump and
clean your own engine. if,. however,
you have no mechanical ability, get
a handy neighbor to help you. Work
with him yourself to learn all you
can.
Be determined that this year you
Will do your spraying right, that you
will have.a good working outfit with
no leakages, good long hose firmly
attached, good -nozzles or a good
spray gun, plenty • of material, a•
spray calendar to -*lade - you and
everything ready to start the first day
the spraying season opens: -
If "you do your. part the spray will
do its part, and the result will be a
clean crop. You cannot be too
thoughtful about your spraying.
Nothing about . the orchard pays so
well as intelligent spraying. You
can't do it intelligently unless you
are ready and follow directions
carefully. -L. Caesar, B.S.A., 0. A.

.Faith In Dreams.
The faith of some people in
dreams is strikingly illustrated by
the story of Mrs. Fry, of Lewes, who,
although' repeatedly informed by
the War Office, the commanding
officer, and the chaplain. of his
regiment that her son was killed fif-
teen months ago, steadfastly refused
to believe he was dead, simply be-
cause she dreamt he was alive.
Constant dreams of her son buoy-
ed up her hopes, and she expressed
herself as in no way astonished when
at last she heard that he was a
prisoner in Germany.
Ten days before the Titanic disas-
ter the Hon. .1. C. Middleton, vice-
president ' of the Akron -Canton
Railway in Ohio, who had booked a
passage on the ill} -fated liner dreamt
he saw the ship capsized in mid --ocean
arid a, lot of passengers struggling
in the water.. The following night he
dreamt exactly the same thing, and
this so impressed him that he decid-
ed to cancel his passage.
Mr. Melton Prior, the famous war
corresliondent, once told the writer -
how, on two occasions while in
Africa, at the time of the Zulu war,
he dreamt that he saw himself shot
and .witnessed ;l3 is own. funeral.
Later, on arrival ^ t Durban, he 1'e-
ceived a letter i nom' his mother
stating that she had had a precib' 1v
similar dream, and 'begging him sills
to go with a certai:a expedition. rine
