UNDERDRAINAGE I

For many years a great ileal has been said regarding I

cause notliliig definite was undertaken. At last real work t

Department ot' Agriculture and data re the manufacture

be selected and a plant erected which will manufacture

consulted with reference to the building of the plant, and

thc tile will be required in the western part, consequently the site will no doubt be chosen in that district.

in this the Department of Agriculture will purchase a traction ditclier and it is a well known fact that/by its use tile can be installed far easier and better than by hand. Those farmers who are vitally interested will he glad to know that some actual work is being done and that there is a definite promise of a ditching machine. \\’hilc it is true that this season would be an excellent time

other provinces and takes time. a

thruogli out the Dominion has offered one or more guns,

Lieutenant-Col; Kirkpatrick, of the 55th Battalian, N.B. I

for his battalion, and his appeal, too, has already met with

sons. Quite a number of 'guns have been given. More

to thc terrible and deadly results acliieved by troops well supported by iniicliino guns. The tire of one machine gun t

coinpaiiy-foiir por battalion. Therefore the Germans have ai superiority of four times the number of machine guns as the British. Some of the advantages of a niacliiiie gun are that while equal to sixty men it occupies only about a yard of space, and owing to its size it is readily concealed. it can bc easily and rapidly moved from one position to another by a few men, it can and has been handled with deadly effect by two mon, it is capable of firing from 350 to 600 rounds per minute and an object on wlilcli n. machine gun is siicircssfiilly trained cannot fail to be annihllated in a very short timc. The British should be superior ln supply of inacliine guns because we have less men; how great then is the disadvantage of our men when the Ger- lnltlis arc superior in both men and mii_chlne guns."

Every Canadian wants to See the Caandlan contlngeiits

enjoy every possible advantage in the terrible task before them. We know that those yet to go will do their part as effectively and as efllclently as did the brave men who have already in this wiir made the name of Canada great. But they must be equipped for their work. They should at least lie as well equipped as their enemies.

We in I’rlnce Edward Island have sent men to the front

and are sending niore. We must see that they tire equipped. Oni-. firni, Messrs Matthew & McLean, of Souris, have tffllltriliuteil onc inacliine gun. Prince County is contri- buting two guns. Other municipalities aniong us will doubtless do more. Charlottetown cannot fall behind. Our citizens have already contributed largely to gill(-,r funds and :ill the funds were needed. Here is nnothor need cqual to if not greater than any of the others. And all are willing to give. All that is needed is a start and the Dtfvplc are waiting for it. A whirlwind campaign would mlsff l‘l“V¢‘l‘1ll Runs. We have not yet given to the point of

S3<fl'lllC0. but thc time of sacrifice ls here. Let this fund bc started.

AN APPEAL FROM THE FRONT

Speakers at Patriotic meetings usually refer to the

ppeals coming from our boys at the front, and with some

ffect. To-day we give the following extract from a letter

received by Mrs Rogers, Summerside, from her son, Cliff,

THE PATRIOT AGAIN RESILES

The bully who challenges all and sundry and gets

orstcd in the first encounter usually gives in with the orst grace possible. He explains away his challenge as est he can and more often than not suggests his triuni i

Dl-

ant opponent has mistaken the challenge. The Patriot

ppeared on Saturday in the guise of the defeated bully. t protests that tt did not mean what we meant when it

brought the challenge about the oats. It says:

"What was the charge’ It was and is that nearl

An appeal is being made tiirougliout Canada for con- 30-000 BUSHELS OF THE OATS CONTRIBUTED LAST

If the Patriot turns to its issue of the 14th Inst. it will

while the cities are giving numbe,.S_ find that it has deliberately misrepresented the charge it

hen made. These are the words used by our coonteiiipor-

and l’.E.I.. is making a strong appeal for ii number of guns ary' ‘md We Challenge it 1° refute Ulemf-‘

NOTES

-_gmt ._

The Treasury Department at Washington has begun ii'

crusade against alcoholic preparations which under the Hulse of niediclues are fliidiiig big sales in prohibltloii ter- ritories. The collectors of internal revenue have received av list of 246 such preparations, which they have been ln- structed to levy a special tax on. Evidently the drinkers of the imitation booze in dry territory are to be worried as well as their brothers in the wet lands who fliid satisfac- tion in the genuine article.

Field Marshal Mackcnsen, who is lending one of the

arniles against the liusiilaiis in the east, says that no German walited the war, least of all the Kaiser, but that the people were now united for victory. The German losses were great, but it was inevitable that they should win. The German cause was just, the logic of history WHS 011 G€l‘lllt1lly`8 Siile. and God would not forsake her. Judging by his words, Mackensen's patriotism must have blinded lilm to the true facts of the situation or else ho is speaking what he knows to be untrue,
