Lafontaine carried the bill which vovkled for iebellion losses. In oppoeitIon a fattens agitation arose am- ong those who cladmed that rebels were to be compensated as well as innocent stifforers.

There was Wil- liam Hume Blake, the father a men who later shone in the eame arena. George 13rown had appeared with the Globe as his personal organ . Francis Minks, the life-long friend of Baldmen, riad won a leading place. The old min- istry had tired of .serviee and the elec- tions had been fought out In a three -corn- ered• conteet.

Instead of }Melts coining to terms with his disaf- fected eollowers, lie formed a cealition with his opponents. He gave Mace, him- self, to Sir Allen MacNab and Hon. A. N. Norin, a French-Canadian, succeed- ing Lafontaine. This was the origin of the famous Liberal -Conservative party. It was compoted of moderate men from both parts of the country and had the satisfaction of settling two of the most troublesome questions of the day. The Clergy Reserves were disposed of -and Seigniorial Terure was abolished. But the greatest of all Parliaments up to thls time was that which met in Ot- tawa, the new capital of the Dominion, after Coarederatien in 1897. It was an- other coalition. The union of parties were successful in forming an alliance with the Maritiine Provinces and joining all into a federel scheme. - Amsterdam, Cable — (Br the A9- seciatea' Press)—Field Marehal von Hindenburg is dead; according to the neWspaper Les Nouvelles, His death ia said to have occurred after a stormy interview with -the Cerman Emperor at great headquarters at Spa. The Emperor and the field mar - seal are declared to have had serious dafferences of opinion concerning the German offensive towaras Paris. The field marshal died from congestion of the 'brain. The violent interview between von Ilindenaurg and Emperor 'William occurred. on May 16, Les Nouvelles says. It was followed by an apoplec- tic stroke, which ultimately resulted in the Veld marshal's death. ',The eiewapaper says its information was obtained "from good sources in the occupied district of Belgium." In the past six moaths there have been several ruiners of the death of Field Marshal von Hindenburg, and there haste been many relents that 'he has been in poor health.

Late in May Field Marshal von Hin- denburg wee reported ill with typhoid fever at Strassburg. The fleki marshal on June 18th was reported by the Tri- bune, of Geneva, to be suffering from an acute nervous disease. The news- paper declared it had learnee from a reliable source tbat his mental cap- acity was much affected, and that he was confined in a private sanitarium.

It is a big field—and the gates have been opened invitingly to womankind. City as well as country girls have carte blanche to wander whither they will in the field. But training is neces- sary, "The work is there if girls will take the dairying course and go in t n it in earnest," says Professor Dean, Profes- sor of Dairy Husbandry at the Ontario Agricultural College, Guelph. ' He knows! Then who is going to take his re- imark to heart? THE REASON WHY. One of the direst needs in Europe to -day is the need of fats. On this con- tinent we have no idea ofj.he straits to Which people are put to secure even the smallest quantities. Every scrap of fat is serupulously saved. It is needed for 'taking munitiens as well as for sustaining human life. One of the last cables to reach the Canadian Food Board from Baron Rhondda contained tho message: "There Is still a •marked shertage of cheese." Britain—and not only Britain, but all the Allies—are looking to Canada for more butter and more cheese, just as they are looking for wheat, beef and bacon. As the days go on the need is intensified. Canada is not coming up to the scratch where her dairy exports are cincerned. The Food Board calls on thewomen of Canada to help the delay farmer make the swish of the revolving churn sound from end to end of the country. It is a definite call, There is no compulsion about it. Put it is a chal- lenge to the patriotism of Canadian women. 11 18 wark for which they are admirably fitted physically, tempera- mentally and in every other way. This has been amply demonstrated by the women of Europe, For years dairying has .beea a popular occupation for woluen in certain countries, although little has been thoUght about it on this continua, - 40Me PACTS AND FIGURE$, The daira farmer Will increase bit herds if once he has the definite as- euranee that he, iz gable to have en- otigh help to take are et the butter arid cheeeemaking, There is anne.

It will be all the better when city girls begin to join the ranks in greater numbers. Several experts, and among them Mr. J, A. Ruddick, Dairy and Cold Storage Commissi nier for Canada, are of the opinion that girls are not par- ticularly well suited for work in cheese factories and Creameries. In the main it is heavy work, but its lighter forms, such as wrapping, print- ing and packing the butter, all come within women's province. At present they are only employed to small .ex- tent in such factories. This should not deter any Prospec- tive dairy devotees, however for there is an abundance of work for them on the farms. There are no an- nual statistics for the production of homeenade butter and cheese, but tbe census a 1911 shows that in 1910 the total production of home-made butter was 68 per cent. of Canada's totakbut. ter production. So far our trade in datry produce has been very largely with the Unit. ed Kingdom. Between 3912 and 1917, 99 per cont. of the cheese we exported went to the Motherland. „WHERE TO TRAIN Canada hasdonesome pioneMIng in the matter of giving instruction' in dairying. In no other country has this work been done on a more extensive scale, indeed, our dairy experts have been in demand aboard, and a number of them have gone to fill important posts in othee countries. The first classes for instruction in the manufacture of cheese in _Gan- ada if not America, were hetet eta St. Denis, Quebec, in 1881 and 1882. About the same time classes for buttermak- ing were started at Ste. Marie, Que. bac. The dairy school at St. Hyacinthe was cpened ip. 1892. It was the first regular dairy school in Canada. A fine new building was erected and opened in 1905, The dairy school in connec- tion With the Ohtario Agricultural Col- lege at Gue:ph was opened in 1:893, and the Kingston Dairy School came int a being it the fellowing year.

I never realized till I went to Canada how great a country it was. There is nothing more deceptive than a map. It seams so email on it, but when I got there I realized whet a 'gi- gantic country it was—not merely. a country whose shores are . lapped by three oceans, but a, country of infinite resources and possibilities. I confess that had I not been there and seen the country I could not, nave said this. It gave Inc a glimpae or the immense fu- ture of the country with its infinite variety of resources and climate. I got there in September, I remem- ber, and got as far as Edmonton only because there was a blizzard. This was some time in Deeember—(laugh- ter)—but it was it climate te produee a great vigorous country. I realized then and felt instinctively that Can- ada would one day play a very great part in the history of the world. I did not realize then how soon that time would come. It has come sooner than any of us expected. I won't say it was the beginning of Canada's history, because you had a history before; but It was the first time you had been projected on the canves of the world. c ou s.

It is, known that formidable- squa- drons have been detailed for the pur- pose of defence. Yet from 13 of these 14 raids the British aormations return- ed without loss of assingie machine. In the other raid two British machines were reported missitige while four German aircrafts were shot down or driven down out of control.
