Thousand Times Paris, August 21—(Correspondence of The Associated Press).—Captain Roeckel, one of tho oldest in service and one of the most remarkable of French military aviators, has just been killed in a flying accident at Villacoublay, after risking death thousand times over the enemy’ Captain Roeckel was the c: the French system of regulating artil- lery fire from airplanes. Among his exploits was the destruction of haif of the artillery of the Sixteenth Ger- man army corps in the vicinity of Tri- aucourt, Septemher 8, 1914 Ta:s ach-evement provoked a general note by Marshal Joffre regarding tha use of “airplanes of combat.” Two days after his success near Triaucourt, Captain Roeckel, flying at a height of 300 yards, discovered the sosition of a division of Bava fantry in tho region of Vaux signalled it to the artillery, then got back to camp with his machire rid- dled with bullets and shell fragrments. When tie French infantry advanced and occupied the position, they found 4,800 dead Bavarians on the field, all victims of the French 3-inch field guns.

Paris, August. 30.—During the last meeting of the Surgical Society Doc- trr Fredet mentioned a fact seemed to show the which value of pre- ventative injections of anti—tct:\nnsl serum. | After the battle of Ourcq, a certain | number of wounded French and Ger- | man soldiers were collected in a hos- | pital. A German doctor | mained with the German wounded | and, although suflicient serum was | placed at his disposal, he refused to | use it for his men, saving that he considered such injections had no pre- ventative value. The French wounded received the normal doses of the serum. Of twelve German wounded, six contracted te- tanus (lock-jaw) and died, while no French wounded showed any symp- tom of it. This example of the ser- um's preventative efficacy has all the more weight because all the men had been wounded under the same condi- tions and on the same tetanus-infect- ed ground. had re- Britain’s Highest Woman Officer.

PORK. to Teach | Pork plays such a big role in the fecding of the Allied armies, and so many hogs must be raised in the fu- ture to prevent a pork shortage, that the Bastern States Exjosition and Dairy Show at Springfield, Mass. Oc- tober 12 to 20. which is the govern- ment Food Training Camp of this | region, is offering unusually large premiums for pure-bred hogs of the common breeds. Pork is a kind of meat which can he cured or canned very easily. This caus it to be of great value as a | food for soldiers, since it is very dif- | ficult to make much use of fresh meat | in the feeding of an army. A pork shortage would handicap the Allied commissary greatly in keeping their forces furnished with meat. Pork, too, can be produced more quickly and in larger quantities than any other kind of meat. A pig months old should weigh from 175 to | 200 pounds, four-fifths of which s edible meat. A sow should raise five or six pigs twice a year, and two lit- ters of pigs should produce nearly a ton of meat. There is 80 much Interest in hog production in this territory that it is bglieved that many hundreds of ani- mals exhibited at the coming exposi- tion will be purchased at private sale by farmers who wish to raise better hogs. The exposition 1s encouraging this practice in every way possible. The stern Berkshire congress show will be a big feature of the exposi- tion's swine department. Z six | | SUFFRAGISTS WILL AID N. Y. SISTERS Connecticut Women to Take Ac-| tive Part in Fall Campaign Hartford, Sept. 21.—Not very much active suffrage campaigning will be done in Connecticut during the fall months. This is the general decision of the suffrage leaders, and is due to two cause: of Suffragists in active war a preoccupation which is po: cause Connecticut is well organized for suffrage and this organization h: been used to bring the women togeth- er for war service work. The other reason is that New York will vote on a ervice— state suffrage amendment in Novem- | ber, and all the energy that can be spared from work in Connecticut will be thrown into the great nelghboring state to help to win a victory there. Some of the Anti-Suffragists are asserting that the fact that New York defeated woman suffrage in 1915 fixes positively the fate of the present amendment. They point to one or two states in which the majority against woman suffrage was increased at a second election. They do not r call the fact that in most of the states which now have equal suffrage the voters were called upon to pa suffrage amendments several times before the victory was won. In Oregon iere were five UNSUCCESs- ful referenda before equal sufrage was established in 1912, Amendments were voted upon and defeated in 1880, 1884, 1900, 1906, 1908, and 1910, and vet in 1912 the voters reversed their decision and granted votes to women. The curious part of this history is that since 1912 there has not even been a movement to repeal the amendment, although by the help ot the initiative | this could easily be done. In Kansas there were two cessful attempts before the amend- ment was passed in 1912 and the same is true of Washington the women were enfranchised in 1910, In Colorado and California these w one referdum which the woman's cause was defeated, but in none of these states has there ever been any movement to get rid of a system which as soon as it is established becomes unsuc- One is the preoccupation ! ble be- | where | universally popular. The New York Suffragists point to these precedents, | and hope for equal good fortune this | year—a year when woman suffrage is vitally necessary for the welfare of their country—just as it has been found necessary in England and Can- ada.
