Head of Boy Scouts Honors Canadifin Battalion, Here's a story in prose and poetry, the subject being an incident which occurred when the 15th Battalion were repelling the numerous coun- ter-attacks made by the Germans to recapture Hill 70 on August 15, 1917. The battalion was attacking Hill 70, and whs under orders to execute an ontflanking movement on the left. Two companies were in the line, one in support, and one in reserve. An English 'unit on' the + 15th's left did not get going iw. 'and in some way a party of came through a gap in the line, entered an old com- munication trench across No Man's Land, and was 'heading for Cal. Bent's headquarters. The brigade major telephoned Col. Bent, and told him that Huns were observed coming down a trench, and that he was pragtically surrounded. "To ----- you say. We are not surrounded," it is said was the an- swer of the colonel. "But you are-- they are on top of you." Just thep a.sentry rushed in and said: "The Huns are here." Col. Bent looked up and the Huns were swarming down the trench. His staff was sadly depleted, owing to battle casualties and he and-a lieutenant were the only two officers. Col. Bent hurriedly called out batwmen, cooks, shoemakers, and other headquarters' clerks, and drawing his revolver stepped into the trench and'drove the Huns back out thé way they came, One of the battalion machine guns trapped them with a deadly fire and not one Hun got back, Gen. Sir Robert: Baden-Powell, the head of the Boy Scouts, and who is now credited with having been one of the most valuable secret service men during the war, having even penetrated into Germany, had read in an English paper the story of the Huns" surprise by Col. Hent and his cook with the ham knife. He was 2 fellow-passenger with the 15th Bat talion on the steamer Baltic, and took the opportunity of asking if the story was true. On being told that it was ,the Hero of Mafeking sat down in his state room and compos- ed the following: ~-- The Germans came down like a wolf on the fold, ' A lot of strong Schuappes had ren- dered them bold; They made for: & Sot ¢ marked Bat- talion's H.

Machinery Must Be Kept Well Oiled It It Is to Work Efficiently-- An Expert Discusses the Question From Rvery Angle. (Contributed by Ontario Department of Agriculture. Toronto.) ATE Blight and Rot of Pota- toes - can be prevented by spraying with Bordeaux mix- ture, Commence spraying when the plants are from five to eight incites high and keep the fol- 1age coversd with Bordeaux through- out the season. Take special care to see that the spraying is very thor oughly done if the weather is at all damp about the 15th of July, as Blight often begins' about this time. Add d poison when necessary for po- tato beetles--arstmate of lead paste 33% 1bs, to each 40 gals. of the li- quid spray, or Paris green 2 lbs. to 40 gals, or'a mixture of 2 1bs. arsen- até of lead paste and 1 Ib. of Paria green to 40 guls. ' From three to seven applications should. be made, depending upon the season---the wet ter the weather the larger the num- ber. Do not put off spraying because it looks like rain. If the spray is on the plants half an hour béfore the rain comes it will be dry and suffi cient of it 'will stick to prevent in: fection, which takes place during or soon after: rain. Such spraying should prevent not only Late Blight and Rot but also Early Blight and potato beetles. Thorough spraying only is effective. If thorough spraying is to be done sufficient Bordeatx mixture must pe used, From 60 t0"150 gals per acre should be applied 'at each spraying, and when the plants are large vot less than 100 galions per acre should be used. Thorough spraying means the covering of every portion of the potato plant with Bordeaux mixture in the form of a fine mist. This can only be done when the solution is applied with good pressure, so as to insure covering every portion of the plant. The best results from spray. ing are obtained when potato spray- ers are used which are fitted with a T-joint attachment 80 as to insure covering both surfaces of the leaves at edch spraying. . When the planta are large it has beefy found that it pays to go ovér each row twice at each spraying.--Prof. J. E. Howitt, 0. A, College, Guelph. The Importance of Keeping Mache inery Properly Olled.
