Indications from the results of the clection in South Africa thus far received 10 the effect that the party headed by jeneral Smuts has won in the impertant on held there this week. The ques- of whether South Africa should cut adrift from the British empire has been advanced before but net as strenuously 35 it has been in the late campaign when wo such prominent Boer leaders as and flertzoz have been pitted against each other, the former 3s the leader of the unionists who believe that interests of the country will be s céntinuing under its autemo- mous government as a part of the em- pire, while the latter as the head of the nationalists stands for the breaking of all existing bonds between South Af- rica and the empire and conducting its aftairs henceforth as an independent na- tion. The ontceme can therefors be realized =3 one of unusual interest throughout the w as well as in South Africa. The suocass of the unionists will indicate how the peonle of that country view its pres- ent position and its fture outlook.

The world weli knews the extent to which poison gas was used guring the re- cent war and what 2 part jt played in destroving the effectivensss of the oppos- ing forees. Since the end of the stiug- le it has even been claimed that it would be used on a jarger seale tham ever in any futwre war. Great guantities were made and released and there were vast ouantities of it that remained when the armistiee was signed. Apparently this was to be not only a total loss but a serious fnenmce until some way of disposing ef it was decided upon. It is therefore interesting to note that not only has it veen found through experiments that spme use cai be made of it but that it'ean be emploved in ear- rying on a fight during limes of peace quite as effectively as during war. From testy which have been made there appears {o be rémsoni for believing. that it ean be employed with excellent Tesults for the kiling of the boll wevil. the ‘overéoming of the locust pests ani the slimination of the destructive and Gangerous rat. That due care must be used in the employment of such an agent ean readlly be appreciated, but inasmuch as it has been found to be effective in fighting pests of thie charaeter the utiil- zation of What was scheduled for antab- solute waste appears to be forecasted. But there is more invelved in this idea than the bloeking of waste for if such #as proved 1o be the guick means of end- ing the ravages of insects and rats that is indicated, it will mean aid of the great- est importanice in the solution of big problems for these who are engaged in the growing of crops and those' who are werking for better health conditions. Sueh employment of gas. however. must be dene in guch a masner that it will not mean the wipiag eut of humanity auite as effestively aa it aceomplishes thewde- struetion of the pests.

ODP INCIDENES IN AMERICAN HISTORY WASHINGTON'S ORIGINAL OEDER BOOK. There is no more interesting document connected with the history of the Revo- lution than the original order book of General Washington, now in the passes- sion of a New York state woman, ex- tracts being printed as showing how Washington controlled his army and some of the rules he nade for its guid- ance: “The captain of the guard will go the rounds once, and the sergeants twice at least, each night, and see that the sentries are alerl, and keep a good leok- out.” “The general is sorry to learn that net- withstanding his orders, respect.ng the property of the inhahitants, some soldiers have destroyed the fences and taken the fruit near the camp, and he strictly for- bids such conduct for the future.” “Hugh Cahaggon (a transient persen) and Richard Kief, of Niecleson's regiment, are convicted of stealing a eoat and sev- eral firelocks from Dickson's company.
