The recipe contains the following items: “Seven spools of barber wire, ten pounds of chewing tobacco, one sack of tule roots, one can of blasting| powder, five gallons of Tiver water. | Mix all together and cool for nine days and nights. Set on ice and cocl while you dig your grave. Then take | one drink and go for the hole. You will not need a covering.” —Don't Doubt Tt— A-Good Caller.

Most of the refugees wish to re-; turn to Ruszia. They will do so with the first opportunity and with one! idea only—to help build up their country in the best and most ef- ficacious way which offers. In cur work for the Russian refu- gees during the past two years, we have had enormous assistance from America through. the Red Cross, which: has furnished medical supy plies, food and clothing. Workshops ployment to Russian men and wom- em, and the materials used in these workshops are largely American. The finiched articles are again used for relief purposes. At our headquarters in Paris there is a steady file of men and women, often with the children, | asking for food, clothing, money, or frequently only for advice. Perhaps |the greatest problem which the outside world must solve, | is the exact method which shall be| used in helping Russia. The Russian psychology is perhaps a little intri- cate, and only Russians can deal} with it successfully and efficiently. A certain freedom must be accorded to Russians to administer the capital which will be invested in Russia by ; other nationalities. Russia is normally the world's greatest producer of foodstuffs and raw materials. She is also the world's tured geods and a potential market with unlimited possibilities. The method employed by the American Red Cross in its work for Russians have been largely in the hands of Russiin men and women, while the American organization has stood be- hind and supervised the distribu- tion of its relief materials. 1 hope that when Russia seeks eco- romic aid there will be a repetition of this attitude and spirit. It was ithe Amercan way in old Russia, and it was one reason why America won such a'large place in- the hearts of the Russian people. . The. American is always a “good mixer,” and he is usually very sympathetic to see that everybody gets a “‘square deal.” The New Russia, which I believe will come into being very soon, will undertake a strong economic advance almost immediately. The New Rus- sfa will aim to develcp its farming ipogsibilities at once, and for that it will nieed & whole new equipment of farming machinery. The things which New Russia will need for her economic reconstruction will come mainly from America or front Germany. But all Russians would, prefer American co-operation. i The Amenicen government is [the model for the governments of all the new republics of the world, and it/ bécomes thereby, whether or not it wishes, a sort of godfather to these! new republics. - APPRECIATION The expressions of the kindness of the pupils at the North echool, and | the floral tributes sent by them at the ‘time of the death of the late Adam Howe, who was janitor of the school for some time, were much ap- preciated by the bereaved families. in private family, close in.

A.

The idea of marketing in large lots through an organization - that can offer wool.to the large buyers in graded lots fis absolutely sound, therefore we suggest that every ef- fort be made to encourage -sheep owners to continue the pooling sys- tem. ; In addition to engbling--each: far- mer to sell his wool as parts of large lots in standard grades, pooling in 1921 offers the possible advantage that should there be any advance in the market between the time of pooling and the time of sale of the pooled wool, ‘the grower would get the benefit of any possible market ad- vance. Likewise, the grower would suffer by any general decline in the | market -between' the time of pooling and selling, but it would seem that each grower can afford to speculate on his own clip better than a deale: can do it for him. . : % .Vancouver, B.
