Is ; 3 Due “A correspondent inquircs — solici- ~ tously whether The Stat thinks Eng- - lant is “doing ‘her share.” /From the tone and temper _of the letter. it stems to have been -awritten by a ae with a very red face who thumped the .table between’: senten- ces. . lt is a familiar question, put usual- ty by son:cone who thinks.’ George _ TH] is still King of England and that the chief ally of that country (which He usually refers to as Perfidious Al Hon) is the Money Devil. © Usually to such authority as this may be . traced the statements that England is allowing “her allies to bear the chief burden of the war., That, we are told with a wink, has always been the, British policy. England dets WemPallics do the work and. tren takes the spoils. for herself. Didn’t she stand on the side lines until Eu- rope had‘ worn Napoleon down and then step in at Waterloo just in time \to eapture the prize? Perhaps it is too much to expect that: such superior knowledge would be impressed with the statements made by Premier Lloyd George . in his Paris speech. . He gave figures showing that England had enrolled " $4-2 million soldiers and 1-2 million seamen in addition to the men furnished by the British depen- dencics- He showed that~ England, despite her submarine Josses, had turned -over two millions tons ef shipping to her. allies and ‘that the new building for next : year . would amount to four million tons. Back of the battle line, he said, England had five million workers turning out tke material of war. : lf these. figures convey no impres- sion of British activity those of Mr. Bonar - Law, -the chancellor,: may make them amore concrete, He stated in parliament’ in. moving . the new credit (the nineteenth of the wars bringing the total. up to 25 billion dollars) that, England’s war ‘¢xpendi- ture was now close to 34 million dol- Jars a day. Former chancellor Me- Kenna pointed out in the debate that this is four times England’s daily in- ae for J:erself alone in providing these huge pyudgets. She has advanced mor tan five billion dollars to. her, allies. ag ? : It will be-some little time yet be-) fore. we in the. United States will have done enough to warrant our be- ginning to.inquire as to what. Eng- Jand and France are doing:-—Kansas City Star. “ . Beige ae Minard’s Liniment for ‘sale Every- where. Tree Plantings in Alberta Fohn Glenbeck of Alberta, ‘has planted many trees on his farm near -Gleichen. Five years ago he planted 1,000 trees, scedlings and = cuttings. They were obtained from the gov- @rnment forestry station at Indian Head, Saskatchewan, and . consisted ‘@f Manitoba maples, green ash, wil- tow and cottonwood. — The maples, Ash and willows are from 6 to 8 feet high, while some of the cotton- qvodd are 12 feet high. Two years ago he set out 1,300 more trees re- «ceived from. the, same place. and same sort -of trees. A year ago he set out some 1,500 more trees, among which were some 4amaracks.

During the patriotic celebration in the German reichstag, Deputy Lor- inghoven, reviewing ‘the three -ycars of war, is quoted by Vorwaerts as saying: “Tf, nevertheless, these unexampled German successes, which -in earlier times. would long ago have brought ‘peace, have not carried us any fur- ther, it is because the general world political and economical situation op- crates anly in favor of our enemies, ‘who. have been able to enlist help from their ever-growing number of allies. This aid has enabled: themt to carry on the war until the present day, and so it has come about ‘that our soldiers have been. really cheated out of the fruits of their victories.” is! —_—_——_—___—_--- ‘“Minard’s Liniment Cures Dandruff.

The land has been divided into. two ‘main classes.. The first of these rep- resents that which has been: already patented: and the second shows that} which .vas entered for but not yet been.

If Germany accepts a peace without annexations and indcmnities the cebt will amoxat to $625 per head; while the tax burden of every citizen will be quintupled!” After setting forth that it is the duty of every true: G-rman, whether Socialist or Junker, to insist upoa a) strong German peace, for the sake of a healthy future internal develop- ment, ‘plenty. of work, good ‘ wages, and- universal national warfare,” the appeal concludes: en “Our victory is nearer than eVer.

Meets the Real Ametican- As an American minister, the Rev. Dr. J. F. Newton, now pastor of the City. Temple, London, very. truly says in a recent article in the . Pall Mall Gazette: “America enters the arena with no undue optimism, with no illusions; but, as regards the ulti-: mate outcome, without.a shadow © doubt. .No man ‘can foretell what ef: fect this alliance: between the United States and England may have upon our future relations. The entry of America is like a family reunion of those who have been living apart for a while. You will presently meet 2 new kind of American. You are al- ready familiar with the “‘globe-trot- ter,’ the ‘get-rich-quick’ and the spec-] ulator. Now, the real American | is going to meet the real Englishman! They: will meet as comrades in the trench and dn the fighting line. ‘This impossible. by any. formal allegiance.” * FIGHTING.

Amalgamation Ob re ‘Project Is jAdvisable, Says President at Close of Convention at _Maple Creek . Tn his closing remarks before the Western Canada Irrigation associa- tion convention; President Mother- well made reference to the apparent advisability of amalgamation. of the Anternational Irrigation congress and the International Dry Farming con- gress. Dry farming and irrigation are simply different methods of pro- viding moisture to the soil and: the problems of the dry farmer and irri- gator are allied and in many .cases the same. Mr. Motherwell also inti- mated that so far as-one member -of the government could -pledge his Rovesnment “he would assure. the Western Canada Irrigation _ associa- tion of continued support from the ‘province of Saskatchewan,.’ and if legislati wi uired, in a4 as ft t i ‘tion with building and allocation of reest of reservoirs. for irrigated dis- 4ricts in the province, it would be taken up by ‘the executive officers to promote necessary legislation just. as soon as conditions required.- a Resolutions. adopted by the . con- vention at its concluding session ‘in- cluded a resolution calling on. the government to accept sole responsi- Fility for the settlement and future welfare of the empire’s soldiers and sailors and pledged | support of the association to that’ end. Another resolution requested—the minister of the interior to investigate. what steps are necessary and to. inaugurate a definite. policy. towards reforestation of Cypress Hills forest reserve for the purpose of' regulating stream, flow in the territory affected. a The convention resolved to” urge upon the Dominion ‘govertiment and the government of British Columbia the importance of making. necessary appropriation and necessary steps to: continue -withott interruption gaug-4 ing streams, of water supply. -It also endorsed the general principles oe resolutions passed at the—recent} better water convention - at.

An invitation from the Nelson board of trade to make that convention centre . was unanimously accepted. . : The. possibilities of fruit raising.on the. prairies .were discussed before the convention by- €oaldale.
