These ships are almbst 2,000 tons heavier than the Ramilles, Ramilles, Resolution, Revenge, Royal Oak and Royal Sovereign, another battle squadron carrying eight 15- inch guns'-apiece, which should be about complete by now. This would give Great Britain ten ships_with eighty 15-inch guns, all of which can stand 15 to 18 miles off their objective, and blow it to smithereens. smithereens. A concerted bombardment of any fortified place by only fjve these ships may be imagined. No doubt the results attained by the Queen Elizabeth are being carefully carefully noted. They may be a-pphed at a slightly later date^ to other enemy fortified places. ,-It need not be thought that the whole British navy is quite inactive. It is quite possible that surprising developments developments may occur shortly if rumor has any truth" in it. ■-- --* When the* Thirty Years' War broke out, in 1618, Germany boasted boasted sixteen millions of population. In 1648, when the war ended, the population had been reduced to four millions. On the same basis if this war lasts thirty years the 60,- 000.000 Germans will be reduced to 15.000. 000, or at the rate of 500,000 a year. In six months, however, without the war reaching Germany itself, the losses have been at -least 1,500,000 or 3,000,000 a year. At that rate, if the war lasted thirty years Germany would be minus 30.000. 000 of population at the end of it. We.may at Bast comfort ourselves ourselves with the proof that this war can not last thirty years at the pre - birth, but have been brought about by a> realization of the moral and economic effect of alcohol' upon the efficiency of working men, physical and mental, and upon the general degeneracy of the civilian and sol- -dier. ■ • V ; / The question of restricting the drink evil in Great Britain was recently handled by the Chancellor of the Exchequer in a remarkable speech at Bangor, Wales. Mr. George then declared that the Government, inspired by the action, or rather the results of prohibition meaisures of Russia and France iri suppressing thé use of Vodka and absinthe, had- de- ! cided to take hold of the problem firmly. He declared that the -Government -Government was armed with full powers powers for the defense of the Kingdom, and meant to use them against the drink evil as a national enemy. He asserted that workmen who insisted upon their drink holiday, when efficiency was impaired by alcohol, alcohol, and who put 'less intelligence intelligence or energy into their labor as a consequence, were doing Britain incalculable harm. He asserted that- drink was doing more harm to the nation than all Germany's submarines and Zeppe lins combined. And all this has been brought about scientifically by observing the blighting . influences of alcohol upon the efficiency of workmen, civilians and soldiers. Drunkenness is no- longer a social joke--it is a tsocial mistake,--and everybody is now le aiming that fact. CHAS. M. BICE. Denver, March. 16th, 1915. CO-OPERATIVE EXPERIMENTS IN WEED ERADICATION.

A few r months 1 .ago, and since the beginning of the great European war, the world was amazed to learn that the Czar of Russia, by one stroke of the pen, had put a stop to the manufacture and sale of Vodka, the Russian favorite intoxicating intoxicating beverage. It was the most astonishing development development of the war, this banning of Vodka, by the Russian Govern- f ment, especially when the wan was. costing Rus sia millions, and lia Die to cost many millions more, and the revenue from this source was immense. immense. The Imperial ukase which forbade the manufacture and sale of Vodka in the Czar's dominions will cost thé government nearly half a billion dollars each year, in loss of revenue revenue from that source alone ! The hero of Russia, Michael ; JJ. Teheldsheff, who was the prime mover in this prohibitive scheme, is now the most popular man m the great empire. He was ,a peasant by birth, and by keen business ability became a Russian multimillionaire, multimillionaire, but he did not make his money in the Vodka. traffic. He has been a f oe to Vodka from his youth up, having witnessed its terrible ravages. ' It is said, that while in his "teens," a book was put into' 'his hands, describing the poisoning effects, of Vodka (alcohol) (alcohol) on the human body. It made a deep and lasting impression, and he thereupon took up thé systematic systematic study of the Vodka evil. He was elected- mayor of Samara, and attempted to curtail the traffic in this favorite intoxicant in that city, but failed. Later he was sent to the Duma, Russia's Parliament, "and managed to get that body to pass a bill to label every Vodka bottle ('Poison.' ' This ; measure was rejected by. the Imperial Council, Council, but he was not discouraged. He took his ease direct to the Czar, and/.laid before him all the facts that he had spent assiduous years in gathering. The Czar became became alarmed at the disclosures and made a personal investigation What he learned to be the truth astonished him still more, and at the outset of the war he ordered all vodka shops (saloons) closed provisionally. provisionally. - , For a month the. effect of compulsory compulsory temperance was tabulated and strictly observed. The ukase worked so; satisfactorily and), splendidly splendidly that the,Czar ordered a fipal doping- of -all saloons and the stoppage stoppage of. alii manufacture of vodka.. This-- was extraordinary, for -the government -itself was interested* iff the manufacture of this drink, and faced the loss of one; of the heaviest <:ôürcêï of revenue. . It is difficult to conceive the tremendous effect of the Czar p order order for Russians consumed! mqja, liquor ,proper.tionateiy than . any other people, and there aie about 170,000,000 of people m Russia. Drunkenness has been its chaet curse, yet at a word : every vodtai chop hud factory in that huge emr pire waft dosed tight. Autocracy is at fine t'hinK- when wielded by a I level-headed monarch: Reports from the empire show that Russia found the change so bénéficiai that no one would now listen to a proposal to go back to the old traffic in vodka. The results results have fully justified the drastic drastic order of the Czar. Russia has been regenerated and revolutionized, revolutionized, if her Press speak the truth. Crime has diminished over 40 per cent, policemen are not needed to keep the pence, and the. prisons and insane asylums, are " being emptied rapidly. M. Bark, the distinguished Russian Russian financial imnister, made a statement r e ee t h a t though the suppression of vodka had cost- the Czar's empire many millions in revenue, revenue, there .would be a revolution in Russia, if .an attempt were made to re-introduce it.

Some forty- five farmers co-operated in this work. The weeds experimented with were Perennial Sow '-Thistle, Twitch Grass, Bladder Campion, Wild Mustard and Ox-eye Daisy. Some very, interesting and valuable results were obtained. Thore who took part in these experiments profited profited by the experience. In nearly every instance they cleaned the field experimented with, and demonstrated demonstrated to 1 their own .satisfaction .satisfaction the effectiveness of the "methods "methods tried, and at the same time he results furnish practical information information to others. Some of the Practical Information Gained from these Co-operative Weed Experiments. 1. That good cultivation, followed followed by rape sown in drills, provides a means of eradicating both Perennial Perennial Sow Thistle and Twitch Grass. 2. That rape is a more satisfactory satisfactory crop to use in the destruction of Twitch Grass than buckwheat. 3. That rape gives much better results in the eradication of Tv-itch Grass and Perennial -Sow Thistle when sov T n in drills and cultivated than it doe^s when sown broadcast. 4. That thorough, deep cultivation cultivation in fall and" spring, followed by a well-eared for hoed crop, will destroy destroy Bladder Campion, 5. That Mustard may be prevented prevented from seeding in oats, wheat and barley by spraying with a. twenty per cent, solution of iron sulphate. These co-operative weed experiments experiments will be continued this year. The weeds to be experimented with are Perrenial Sow Thistle, Twitch Grass, Bladder Campion or Cow Bell, " Wild Mustard, and Ox-eye Daisy. All who have any of thèse weeds on their farms are invited to write to the Director of Co-operative Co-operative Experiments in Weed Era.- d-ication, O.A.C., Guelph, Ontario, who will gladly furnish information concerning this experimental work. -- +--- WATCH BRITISH SUBMARINES Give Them a Chance and They'll Show What They Can Do. The British submarines- if they get the chance, will .give as good an account of themselves as have the Germans, says a writer in Everybody's Everybody's Magazine. They are in the [hands of the "young ones," who are full -o-f gimp, and enthusiasnp a brotherhood of daredevils, cousins of those in the destroyers.
