A new kind of shell is generally given the chief credit for the success of the new Russian offensive in de- spatches from Petrogrra . Incredible quantities of this new weapon are be- ing used by General Brussiloff, and its effect is said to surpass everything witnessed in the war thus far. “Of course, nothing can be said about the nature of this shell,” says the Morning Post’s correspondent at Petrograd, who asserts it is the product of the coâ€"operative research of the Russian unifersities Ammunition Sufficient, System Per- fected and Campaign Just Begun The Times’ Petrograd correspon- dent sends the following interview with Gen. Brusiloff. commander of the Russian forces fighting against the Austrians and Germans: “The speedy successes we have attained are not the product of chance or of Austrian weakness, but represent the applica- tion of all the lessons we have learned in two years of bitter warfare against the Germans. At the war, and eSpeci the beginning of ally last summer, we lacked the preparations which the Germans had been making for the ‘ past 50 years. We have now for the first time had sufficient ammunition ‘ to enable us to use ; for preventing the the curtain of fire enemy from retir- ling.

WILSON Democrats Unanimous and Enthusias-‘J ticâ€"Americanlsm and Suffrage E St. Louis despatches on Thursday said: The Democratic National Con-‘ vention by acclamation re-nominated President Woodrow Wilson and Vice- 1 President Thomas R. Mashall. Un- bounded enthusiasm marked the ses- sion with a great demonstration last- ing 45 minutes when Attorney-General Wescott of New Jersey mentioned Woodrow Wilson. The Convention on Friday adopted the party platform exactly as approved by President Wil- son, including the plank on American- 1 ism and that favoring woman suffrage. The President insisted upon the latter plank and it was put through, despite opposition. The plank on American. ism drawn by President Wilson said in part: “We condemn all alliances and combinations of individuals in this ‘ country of whatsoever nationality or descent, who agree and conspire to- gether for the purpose of embarras- sing or weakening our government or of improperly influencing or coercing our public representatives in dealing or negotiating with any foreign pow- \ .ed.

The open hostility of Carranza generals and civil officials in threatening to attack the evidences of participation by Carranza ofilcers' in the repeated border raids inspired the call for troops.

Gable, Dominion Fruit Inspec- tor at Toronto, discusses factors of success in strawberry growing, as fol- lows: No fruit, plant or weed will thrive on as many difierent soils as the strawberry, but which soil is best? It is generally admitted sandy loam will produce the greatest crops of berries, provided it is well manured and cultivated, although a great many berries are grown on heavy lands suc- cessfully. The strawberry requires an abundance of moisture although damp isoggy soil. on low land is absolutely [useless for growing them.

Do not plant strawberries on ground not preViously cultivated for two years as it is apt to be infested by cut-worms, White grubs or other harm- ful pests. It is also apt to be full of weeds and grass seed. The best land is that 'which has been in a hoe cr0p the previous year (corn is not so good), it being both free from insects and weeds. To prepare that ground ILL 15 UUDL w . plow in a good coating of manure be- é fore planting, This can. be applied 1 § especially heavy if well rotted.

Hungarian crown, now bereft of its function, since its country owns the sway of Austria, has an extremely romantic history, and is regarded by the people as an object of mystery and veneration. Fifty kings have . been crowned with it during a period of 800 years. In 1848 it disap "‘ ed entirely, and rumor had it the Kw. suth, the Hungarian patriot, had sold the jewels to the Turks in order to get money to carry on his revolt against Austria, and had destroyed the framework. For five years a oom- mittee sought for clues as to its Where- abouts, then a Hungarian, on con- dition of perfect safety, oflered to re- veal to the wondering seekers the hid: ing place of the holy emblem.

Cut Out Pear Bllgnu l Pear blight starts in the spring of l the year when the blossoms are 0 . and that is the time it is ca , especially to apples. There is only one thing to do with pear blight. and that is to act quickly and keep on ‘ acting. To control it as few twigs as. ‘ possible should be left for the insects to feed on. Early in the season every ‘ affected twig should be cut out. Be sure to disinfect your tools, because if you cut a diseased part and then ’cut a healthy part, you are almost sure to give it the diseaseâ€":3“. L. Caesar, 0.A.C., Guelph, Ont.
