ENGLAND RISES TO GREAT NEED 0FU0RE KEN Self -Confident Nation Is Aroused Into Unheard of v Activity Begins to Comprehend Extent of War.
CITIZENS RESPONDING
Abandons Idea of Getting ' Professional Soldiers to Fight and Thousands Volunteer for Service.
BY HERBERT TEMPLE. LONDON, July 12. A most wonder
ful change has come over London, or rather all England, during the last
month. An easy going, phlegmatic, self-confident nation, used to seeing
its battles fouebt by its professional
soldiers, has suddenly been awakened and aroused into unheard of activity
by the earnest appeals of minister of munitions, Lloyd-George, whose addresses have rung out from one end
of the country to the other, setting in
to vibration responsive chords in the hearts of high and low alike, and the
irresistible eloquence of Ben Tillett,
the labor leader, who came back from the trenches, his great heart filled
with wonder and admiration of what
he had seen. Whole Nation Helps.
The whole English nation is at last "doing its bit," and the change that has become apparent even ' to those
who live In the very midst of things,
is, of course, even more noticeable , to a visitor who returnB after an interval
of months. A high military officer, member of the general staff of one of the Scandinavian countries, who had spent some two weeks here as the
guest of a British general, said to me:
"I am greatly impressed with what I have seen here this time. When I was here in November last I was amazed at the general apathy shown
by the public, and it was my honest
conviction that nothing but general
conscription and military dictatorship could make this country turn out the
armies and munitions which France
was counting on. When reading in
the papers at home of strikes and pet
ty sauabbles of all kinds among the
people here, my conviction was greatly
strengthened. Now, as if ry magic,
I find everything changed.
"Every opportunity has been given
me by the military authorities to form
my own opinion, and I am willing to
assert before any one that the English
army today is well above the two mil
lion mark, and not only this, it is equipped as no army I ever saw was
eauiDPed. - What has been accomplish
ed here during the seven months since I was here' last, could not be done in
any other country in the world.'1...
BEN TILLET OUT
FOR LONG .FIGHT
y 4 iV v
Ben Tillet. radical English labor leader, has killed an attempt to have the Federation of Trade Unionists ex
tend fivmpathy to the Trade Unionists
of Germany "on account of their pe
culiar position in which their govern
meat has placed them. Tillet turned all the bltins? sarcasm for which he is famous, on tho labor leaders who supported apd introduced the resolution at a meeting of the English Federation in London. "I am amazed at s!Ch rigamaroleo.' shouted Tillet. "Why, men, don't you know that before the war the workmen of Germany boasted in their cafes that they would crush
France and . then . turn around and
crush England? This scrap must be a
fixht to the finish. Whoever heard of
two prize fighters stopping to kiss
each other? Let's have no more of
this sentimental bosh." The resolu tlon was promptly voted down. Til-
letts is one of the hardest workers
in the huge recruiting campaign.

HELMES STATES MEANS TO KILL WHEAT FLIES
J. S. Helms, government monthly reporter, has received from the United State department of agriculture the weekly news letter conatining rules for farmers to following to bring about the extermination of the Hessian fly. The following is taken from the letter: "The loss in the 1915 wheat crop from the ravages of the Hessian fly in some sections will be the greatest in several years. From June to October, 1914, the department issued repeated warnings and advisory statements telling of the impending danger of it serious outbreak of the pest durinfti.th.e year 1915-;" It4s -too late to do anything toward lessening, the dev astatiohs of the Hessian fly in this year's crop. Now is the time, however, to begin the work of saving from the fly the millions of acress of wheat which will be planted on the present infested area within the new few; months. Fly Causes Loses. "In order to understand the situation fully, it is necessary to know what the
fly is like, how it is capable of causing such enormous losses, and how
it transforms from the egg to the fully developed insect. Comparatively few
farmers are able to recognize this pest
excepting in what is known as the flaxseed stage, which even then is often
mistaken for the egg.
There are two generations of the
Hessian fly each year, one in the fall
and one in the following spring, the
latter being the children of the former. Therefore, if there were no flies to lay eggs in the fall, it stands to reason that there could be none to lay eggs in the spring.
Rules for Extermination. "The Hessian fly, being in the flax
seed stage in wheat stubble and in unharvested wheat from June till Sep
tember, or even in the couth, can be destroyed by carrying out the following method of control.
"Burn where possible and safe all
stubble and ruined wheat. Disk all stubble and ruined wheat immediately after harvest, when burning is imprac
ticable. Plow under deeply all stubble and ruined wheat fields before August 15, horrow the ground, and roll if necessary. Harrow, disk, pasture or otherwice effectually destroy all volunteer wheat.
