If there is any fur - tier move along this line, let the somite of the movement be thoroughly enquired into. Now that the shirkers cannot any longer go on shirking tn. dodging the ilitary Service Act, let the good work proceed. The highest court in the land has declared that an order -in -council, putting into effect what parliament plainly intended, is legal, thereby showing gond sense as well asmw.' GIRLS!

Irwii, WMglism, Presitheat, John Dillon and Ireland ItOEAI3LY from the Ulster point of view the succession of Dillon to Reclizond will be a move from bad to worse. On the other. hand, it may well be an improvement. It will tend to clear the air and get the issue joined. As far as the tate leader was colleerned there was never any personal objec- tion to ,him or distrust of hili on the part of the Irishmen who opposed Home Rule. John Redmond was al- ways a gentleman. Ile was univers- ally respected as a man, no matter how violently his judgment or his in. fluence might be distrusted. Ulster- men used to say that if Redmond was to be accepted as a fair saroPle of the sort of leaders that Ireland would have under Homo Rule there would be little to fear. Their idea was that after the South had reach- ed the goal Redmond would be tossed aside and a leader more of the Sinn Fein type substituted, It was this domination. •rather than the domin- ation of men like John Redmond that the North feared. . Perhaps John Dillon has earned his position as leader of the Nation- alist party by his long devotion to the cause. But he may have been chosen becat.se be is more likely than a man like Redmond to heal the breach betiveen the Sinn Fein party and the orthodox Nationalists. He is talkin-g now of taking the ease of Ireland to the Peace Congress that will end the war, unless his views are accepted by the British Govern- ment. The thing that a British sub- ject can most properly object to In - the Dillon program is that it is an Irish program. It is not a British program. He has nothing. to say about winning the war; he has every- thing to say about freeing Ireland, as though Ireland were like. Belgium or Serbia. However, he was not elect- ed, to win the liar, and probably is attending strictly to the business that appertains to the leadership of his party. This, however, Is what dis- tinguishes the Nationalists from the Unionists and the Liberals. The war comes first witli their With the Na- tionalists Ireland cornea firs.. A few weeks ago John Dillon ad- dressed an open letter to Mr. De - Valera, the half-,.aste leader of the Sinn lee,iners, in which he told the Sinn Feiners what he thought of the Prospects of Irish freedom and also his opinion of the Sinn Feiners. Re was not then the leader of the Na- tionalist ,par:y,, brit what he said then may be considered now to De binding upon his fol low ers. Tne Purport of tee letter was to get the Feints to cene their most un - Christian warfare upon the Nation- alists, And to show that the ideals of the two I-odies were not necessarily in conflict. Ile gave a certliinte to De Valero for his patriotism. Ind, as the Ny., 1-nrit Port re;narks: els tribute to 1)o Valera "marks the :nut of official toleraLee by the Na- tionalists of that species of propa- ;anda .which lalJels as Judas Isearlots all Irishmen of Sion Fein." They way be regarded as Judas iscariots by_men who regard themselves prim- arify ar. British subjects, but not to men whose ciVer Ideal's to free Ire- land from the tyranny of the Eng- lish. John Dillon differs chiefly from the Sinn Feiners in that he does not believe that there will be an Irish republic. Ile stands for the self. --gov- ernment of leeland within the British Empire, Which was the position held by John Redmond. He commits himself to i contin .auee o' the strug- gle that will secure ,a settlement of the Irish question before he end Of the war, the alternative being an ap- !wet to the Peace (Jonference that will settle the final details of the present cOn.fl:ct. In other werds, he will continue to agitate for Home Rule while the wa- lasts, and if Home Rule has not been won before the victory. over the Germans, b,e will beg to associate Ireland • with Armenia and Poland in the 'Peace Conference. In , the' meantime, he thinks that the Sinn Feiners ought aot to oppose Nationalist candidates in bye -elections, or if they do, the two parties ought to agree as td number of outAde speakers — and voters, maybe—that will he permit- ted to .operate in any given constitu- mey. It is itiain that M -Dillon recog- nizes in the Sinn 'lerners an element that can make or break him as an Irish leader. Irthe can make an arrangemen 1 w htcli w ill permit. him to speak for both the Sinn Feiners and the Nationalists his position will be a powerful one. In that event he will have to face eniy th( opposi- tion of the Unionists and anti -Home Rulers of Ulster. Ifhe is left in the position that John li.:.dinond held in the year before his death, namely, of beingtit) spokesman tor an insig- nificant minority, as it seemed, of trishmen, the footprints that he leaves upon the sands of time will be like other footprints after the tide has come in, Ile makes no overtures to the Unionists, far he announces that he will agitate for the immedi- ate adoption of Home Rule, the very thing that the Unionists have fought against. In short, John Dillon pro- mises either to make or break the cause of Irish Home Rule, and per- form the operation in. the course of the next few months. r1N WINGUANI ADVANCE XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX=XXXXXXXXXX!FARM COLD Wiling Woodchucks.

Simple and Efficient Running Watey Systems for the Farm—flow 'WI Directions Regarding Equipment and Installation May lie Secured. (contributed by Ontario Department or Agriculture, Toronto.) COLD storage is a room or building, depending upon the 8150,, cooled by ice or by some mechanical ineens. In short, it Is a place for keeping food products cool in the hot weather. ,Slnee the arms produce the fool and since the cooling of it should he done quickly and immediately after its production, say milk for xample, in order to keep it in good condition as long as poesible, would it not seem geed business and economy to have the cold storage on the farm? This applies to Our farms particularly since they produce such very per- ishable' products- as milk, butter, eggs, fruit and meat. If there was no other advantage in having cold storage on the farm than that it pro- vides a place in which to keep the daily victuals cool and sweet, there would seem' to bo a good reason for including it In the farm equipment.' There are many ways of providing a small cold storage on the farm, but with the exception of very large fruit or dairy farms, the same principle applies to all, namely, that ice is used as the means of cooling. The method of applying the ice to the best advantage constitutes the prob- lem in each individual case. This Is why no one system can be recom- mended for all cases. It is my Inten- tion to describe briefly belovr one type which should give good service in many farm homes. Tho particular name of this sys- tem is the Bunker system. It con- sists of a small room a few feet square with .a bunker or box or rack at one side for holding the cakes of ice. It is separated from the room by a partition which is kept a f ew inches off the floor and likewise from the ceiling. The bunker has a slat- ted floor with pan just below to catch water which is disposed of. readily through a drain. This ar- rangement provides a natural means for the cold air to drop down to the floor, escape into the cooling room proper and for the warm air to pass up over the partition to the ice, So long as this bunker is kept supplied with ice there will be a natural flow of cold air through the storage room._ If the' room be well insulated It should be possible to maintain a tem- perature of about 40 deg Fahrenheit nude fairly dry atinoephere, Those de- siringplans for constructing the type just outlined or any other type may receive them free of charge by com- municating with the writer.

This number compares with twenty-five cars in the eon& eponding trlod of last year. The butter is made up in firty.eix pound solids and four hundred bdxes make up a car,load, so that, at present prices each carload Is worth $10,. 000.00 There ife every indication that the present rate of export will be tnaintained, if not accelerated. during the year.

The desirability and importance of an ample supply of pure water ;on every farm can hardly be oyer sized. Perhaps more' than any other food element it determines -the healthy and sobust . developthent of the body. Inversely, deadly disease germs lurk in the impure waters of contaminated wells which may bring death with little warning into the family circle. Without great expense • the water supply on the average farm may be so protected as to prevent contamination and it surely seems the part of wisdom in every ease to ensure an abundant seipply of pure water for man and beast. Where•the household supply must be drawn from a well or a stream at some distance from the dwelling the physical labor involved is great. It may be assumed that when no Plumbing is -installed an allowance of tett Wiens ilex person per day for all purposes is necessary. With a family of four someone often the house- wife — must carry 400 pounds of Water a day, or over one ton a week. In the stable much the same con- ditions exist. The task of pumping water by hand for a large number of live stock is slow and arduous— wasteful of .time and trying to the temper. And in cold, stormy weather the stock when driven to an outside tank or an ice -covered stream, will rarely drink sufficient for their best performance or development. Water systems in each case pay their way in dollars as well as in conveni- ence, comfort and health. The question of coSt is important. Many improvements may be made, howeversuch as safeguarding the well from pollution, install- ing a hydraulic ram, septic tank, gravity system, etc., which are not very expensive and when the farmer in able to do a good deal of the work himself the cost is reduced to a point where thousands can afford the in, stalations. With a practical work- ing knowledge of the principles of farm water supply, water systems, equipage and sewage disposal few, indeed, who have impure well water and are without household and stable water convent - ewes but can make improvements of a inost beneficial nature and at a cost which they can afford to expend.
