TO Germans Have Paid a Terrible Price for Small Amount of Ground Gain ed at Verdun--Austilans Badly Disorganized, London, June 26.--Military critics are pointing out to-day that had it not been for Russia's great successes in the east, which have overshadowed other war zones, considerably more attention would have been paid by the press to the German advances on the east bank of the Meuse. While to-day"s Paris communique states that the French have retrieved the greater part of the ground lost be- taeen Hills 321 and 320, south of Fort Douaumont, the enemy still holds the Thiaumont works, and are within very effective range of the most important fortifications Shaker dun itself Undoubtedly this 1s the vital point in the defences. Actions on the west bank of the Meuse, im- portant as they may have been, have been undertaken rather with the idea of facilitating operations on the east bank than with any hope of actual substantial progress towards Verdun from the west There are hints in Paris de- spatches, however, that the great al- lied offensive, which has been unoffi cially vimed as commencing about July 1st, is to come in time to save Verdun. It is not the leas' likely, | of course, that the allies will act be- fore they are perfectly ready, but plans may be slightly hastened if the great forir 8 in real danger Its loss would bé a sentimental one.

The maple sugar {ndustry seems in a fair way to profit by the war. Hitherto this toothsome luxury was but little known in Great Britain and practically unknown on the Con- tinent. Small quantities were ship ped from here to friends or were specially imported 'by Canadians re- sident on the other side, but it was never handled by dealers and it was useless to ask for it in the grocers' and confectioners' shops. Now a different state of affairs exists. influx in England and France of Canadians who have gone over 'to uphold the flag has created quite a demand, and the Duchess of Con- naught's Christmas gift a year ago of a cake of maple sugar to every Canadian soldier across the sea brought it to the notice of many who had never heard of it before. More- over a company was formed in Eng- land some time ago to handle Cana- dian products and among those it was decided to take up was maple sugar and maple syrup. ' As a result of these various influences quite » demand has been created for it and this spring dealers in Montreul have contracted to ship fifty tons to Eng land and forty toms to France. This is but the beginning of what it is hoped will develop into an extensive and profitable trade, for once the merits of maple sugar are properly appreciated in Europe it should find a ready and ever inereasing sale. The United States market also of fers great possibilities. There was formerly a duty of four cents a pound on maple sugar but shortly after the Democratic party came into power this was reduced to three cents. On the first of next May this duty wil) be removed altogether and Cana- dian maple sugar will then have free entry into the United States. Even with the duty in force some sixty Cars a season have been shipped across the border and with an open market this should be 'greatly in- creased. The prices that are being received by Canadian producers this year are about ten per cent. better than last year. One of the largest maple pro ducts concerns in Montreal has con- tracted to pay 90 cents a gallon in bulk for No. 1 syrup, 85 cents for No. 2, and 75 cents for No 3, the big offensive at the critical point in the Verdun campaign, thus avoiding! even a sentimental encouragement to| the German publi Enemy's Los Crushing. { In any event, the Crown Prince is| paying a terrible price for his ad- vances. Advices from the front say | that the German ranks have been| mowegl down time and time again, as| reinforcements have been thrown into] the conflict with a prodigality borne| of desperation. | Meanwhile, on the Russian front, | all goes well in south Bukowina,! which has been over-run by the Czar's| troops, who may soon be trying for | the Carpathian passes. Further north, the advance upon Lemberg | has ben somewhat halted by the in-| rush of German troops. But this is explained by the fact that the Rus- sians find it necessary to consolidate their new positions. The blow which | they have struck at Austria is not to] be measured merely by ground won, | for the enemy has suffered ¢rushing! losses not only in prisoners taken,| but in guns and munitions, and all| the hundred and one forms of booty | which positions carefully organized | and long occupied necessarily yield) to invaders who secure them as unex- pectedly as did the Russians.

One the Soldier and Poet. Lieutenant Herbert Asquith, the author of a little volume of poems being published, is a son of the Premier. "There are only eight poems in the little volume," says Mr. Jackson, of Sidgwick and Jack- son, the publishers, "and several of them were written in Flanders, where the author was wounded on service, The manuscript was de- livered to we from Downing Street a fortnight ago, and is being rushed out before. Christmas. Lieutenant Asquith is now home on leave. It is the first volume he has published, but he has been an occasional con- tributor .to The Spectator under the pseudonym of 'Subaltern.'"™ They Remember Byrom, - There is at least one Englishman for whom Greek affection has never wavered--Laord Byron. Not oaly Is he commemorated in Greece. by statues and street names, but his portrait is to be found everywhere in the most ynlikely places.. Mr. W. Miller, in his "Greek Life in Town and Country," tells how he came upon a portrait of the, poet in a provincial restaurant. 'be mo- ment he took notice of it 'the pro- prietor, a stout, prosaic-looking man, whom no one would have suspected of sentiment, stepped towards the picture, clasped his hands in pathetic gesture, and, with a far-away look in his eyes, stood for a time in rapt admiration of the great Philhellene." in ihe | company paying the freight both on the shipment and on the returned empty packages, The industry is undoubtedly eap- able of wonderful development in .Canada. At present the total pro- duction is about 22,000,000 lbs. for the whole Dominion, of which the Province of Quebec furnishes about two-thirds. This. could easily be trebled or quadrupled, for only about a third of the available trees are tap- ped now and the methods followed by | many producers are responsible for great waste. The Quebec Govern- ment recognizes the value of the in- dustry and its possibilities, and has taken steps to enceurage it as far as possible. There are now three schools for sugar-makers in the province, one at Beauceville in Beauce county, one at La Minerve in Labelle county, and ene at Village Desaulniers in L'Islet, and a fourth will shortly be opened at Portneuf. These schools, which are operated by the Provimeial De- partment of Agriculture with the ald of the Dominion Government's Agri- cultural grant, ae in charge of com- petent instructors, have up-to-date equipment, nnd employ the most ap- proved sanitary methods. The in- struction is free and that it is high- ly appreciated is evidenced by the large numbers who take advantage of it, the attendance at the Beauceville school being as high as ninety. There are also three traveling * in- structors who hold meetings at var- fous centrés and whose efforts to in- tréduce new and better methods have caw | met with gratifying success. As They Put It in Brockville, I noticed a most effective recruit- Ing poster In Brockville which read: "How can you cheer for the ' boys when they come home if you sit on the fence and let them fight your bat tles for you? Enlist with the 156th Battalion." There is an admirable directness about practically every appeal; in- deed, it must be difficult for the man of military age, who is qualified to | enlist, to dodge the imperative note. Take for instance: "Where were iyou in the hour of crisis?" or "You | are no exception. A successful Ger- | many mea&s a Germanized Canada." | There is a striking enlistment pos- ter one sees in many windows, where, { under a procession of volunteers, the legend reads: "Join the brave throng | that goes marching along." { A series of canvas signs on the | four corners of a Canadian city | bears such catchy phrases as: "This | war can't be won at home."

' Zufelt's Address, | The Farmers' Institute for South! Frontenac at its annual meeting in the Court House Saturday afternoon resolved itself into a Board of Agri- culture, This makes the second board in the province, one being re- cently formed at Parham. Officers were elected: Henry Campsall of Hartington being the president of the new board. Addresses were deliver- ed by L. A. Zufelt, superintendent of the Eastern Ontario Dairy School, and by A, W. Sirretr, of the Depart- ment of Agriculture, Sydenham, The meeting opened with the vice- president, D. C. Rogers, RK. R. No. 1 Kingston, in the chair, { The secretary-treasurer, J. S. Sib-! bith, R.R. Neg. 1, Kiugston, reported a balance on hand of $4. The re-| ceipts were $82.07, and the expendi-| ture, $78.07, ular values. Mr. Zufelt's Address 120 washable crepe Superintendent Zufelt gave an in-| teresting and instructive address on the new method of apportioning pro-| ceeds at the cheese factory, which | would come into effect next April, | as the result of the Ontario Legis-| lature having abolished the pooling system. The Legislature was praised | for the change Under the pooling | system all patrons of cheese factories | were paid the same price for 100 pounds of milk no matter what the, quality was This had) a tendency | to increase the quantity of milk! rather than the quality, so that more! pounds of milk were required tol make a pound of cheese, | Cheese made irom low-testing| milk was not so good as that made! from high-testing milk, as was evi | denced by the many complaints that were being received from England. These complaints were to the effect that the cheese was too dry, and the reason for that was that there was sufficient richness in the milk, Nobody should object to being paid according to the cheese producing! quality of the milk. If payment was! made according to the pounds some | some would get more and some less | than they should. The pooling sys- | tem was undoubtedly unfair. 1 There were two practical methods | of determining the value of milk.!| One was the fat method; the othe the fat, plus 2 method. The advocate of the latter method contended that | it took into consideration the ceasein | in the milk The speaker then displayed a num- | ber of charts with the object of show- | ing that the fat method was the! fairest of the two. The straight fat| method made a slight difference in| favor of high-testing milk, while the! fat plus 2 method made a greater dif-| ference in favor of the low-testing! milk, | fone speaker couldn't see why plus 2 | should be taken to represent the| casein in milk, when the casein varies | 80 greatly. If casein were to be taken | into consideration, there should be some practical means for making the test for casein but none had been found as yet. Various tests had proved that the straight" fat test came nearer the value of milk for cheese-making purposes than did any | other method, | The speaker urged all dairymen to do their utmost to increase the fat in their milk. The reputation | of the Province was at stake. Eng-| land had been complaining that the cheese was getting poorer in quality, and this had inspired the Legislature to abolish the pooling system in the hope that the farmers would seek to increase the richness of their milk Supt. Zufelt referred to the fact that all ch » commanded the sams price on the marke to-day, and ex pressed the hope that the time would 1 come when cheese would be sold on its cihnson--all lar $1.50.
