at the many German- air and submarine ¦raids of the latter part of last month.GERMANS MISSED TRANSPORTS.\" rhe Germans undoubtedly were searching for the British transports, but Kitchener thwarted them.He did not send the troop ships directly across the Channel to try to land in the north of France.They were sent out Into the ocean and then to southern French ports.Some of the troops, it is known, have been landed as far south as Marseilles and Bordeaux.HOUSING BIG ARMY.To meet the requirements of housing the big army of British soldiers, miles of water pipes have been laid, and acres of forests have been razed.EXPECT TO REMAIN LONG.That the British troops expect to remain in France for a long time is proved by the erection of reinforced .concrete houses for the officers.PREPARATIONS AT ROUEN.At Rouen preparations for receiving, the British Empire soldiers are going on even on a larger scale than at lEtaples.iGERMAN ADVANCE HAS BEEN STOPPED SITUATION' OF RUSSIANS COM-PHJLLEU HINDENBURG TO CHANGE HIS TACTICS Petrograd, February 16\u2014Since the great German force® brought their last concerted sweeping movement across East Prussia to the borders of Russia the conditions facing them have Imposed a radical change in their tactics.The central aim of the operations was very clearly defined up to a point when the Russians succeeded in drawing out from the gap between the «sift columns of the enemy north pass beyond them on both flanks.The Germans now find they have still to fight a combination of Russian columns inside the fringe of Russia and in the bare, thinly populated plains of Poland.The determined fight the Russians have maintained in the angle along the lino Lyck-Grajevo, where they still hold the ascendancy, has prevented co-ordination of attack by the German army across eastward on the borders of Poland and its northern part, which Is now held up against the Russian defences on the Nieman.ARREST GERMAN MOVE This arrest of the German combination has led to a noticeable scattering of their operations.HINDENBERG\u20198 PLAN FAILS Field Marshal von Hindenberg hoped that the vigorously begun advance was to achieve such complété success that he could spare some army corps for the spring campaign against the Allies in the west.This plan has failed and it is more likely that he will have to send substantial reinforcements to link up the broken and scattered lines into which his invading army is now spread.The tractless country along the narrow NareW is rendered still more difficult by the soaking thaw, and is a natural barrier to a flank in force against the Russian northern communications and with the central campaign in Poland.STUBBORN BATTLE EXPECTED The immediate prospects is a succession of stubborn battles under the most trying natural conditions.Elyen when not in contact with the enemy, the infantry columns, with only bar-| est.necessary transport, can scarcely 1 cover six miles a day DOING WELL IN CARPATHIANS.The Russians are doing well in the ¦ Carpathians, and in western Galicia I they have secured the strong position of GoVlice, with control of the railway.The Germans and Austrians together lost very heavily in the efforts to' reach eastern jGalicia and the Naptha region in the Stryi Valley.The Russians have made some progress southward across the heights covering the Munkacz road and the Germans are now on the defensive under Kozimoka Pass.GERMANS OUTCLASSED IN ARTILLERY ACTIONS Paris, February 16\u2014The following official communication was issued by the War Office last uight: \u201cOnly a few actions are reported, and these favorable to tour artillery.Near Poel-çapelle, northeast of Ypres, one of f he batteries of the enemy was silenced.At Beauralns, south of Arras, several German trenches have been destroyed.}n the neighborhood of Soissons, and in the region of Perthes, some earthworks of the enemy and collections of troops have been efficaciously cannonaded.\u201d POST MORTEM AND JNQUEST Examination Will be Made of \u2018 E.Vintinner Murdered Near Lake Megantic BELIEVED THAT THE DETEO TIVES HAVE IMPORTANT EVIDENCE BEARING ON THE CASE.Bury, February 16.\u2014\u2019Special).\u2014Tomorrow morning'a post mortem examination will be made of the body of Ethel Vintinner, the young girl who was murdered near Lake Megantic.Following the post mortem examination an inquest will be held, to bo conducted by Coroner Bachand, of Sherbrooke.This information was given out by Detective Aitken this morning.The original intention was to have the inquest to-night, the detectives intending to reach here from Lake Megantic on the afternoon train.The C.P.R.has taken this train off, and consequently the detectives could not reach Bury until this evening.Although no Information is available, it is understood that the detectives have new evidence to introduce.They delayed the calling of the second investigation until they had secured sufficient evidence to throw some \u2019ight on the case.MR./U IS HOME AGAIN SPAIN WOULD ISCUSSED JOIN WITH U.S.WATER RATES If Latter Proposes Joint Measures, on Part of Neutrals Over DoilâUlt in Supporting

extreme reserve regarding its position on Germany\u2019s note announcing its determination to include the waters around Great Britain in the war zone.While Spain will try to avoid any action which might give any belligerent an excuse to accuse it of departing from its attitude of neutrality, it is understood the Government will join with the United States if the latter proposes joint measures

in the Fifth Mounted Rifles keeps steadily increasmg and the opening of additional recruiting offices in the Townships is contemplated.Seven applicants passed the medical examination in Sherbrooke yesterday and others will be examined this afternoon.Matters are proceeding very satisfactorily at the camp on the Exhibi tion grounds.The issuing of clothing commenced to-day and a contingent of horses is daily expected.While awaiting their arrival the time is occupied with the usual physical and squadi drill.It is expected that the Sherbrooke recruiting office will be transferred from the 53rd Armory to the Exhibition grounds In a day or so.This decision has been ' arrived at in order to facilitate matters and to render the process of.recruiting more convenient for all concerned.ANOTHER CONTINGENT FROM MONTREAL.Another draft of fifty men arrived this morning from Montreal and went into barracks at the Exhibition Grounds.About fifty others will be sent on later, which will complete Montreal\u2019s contrflbution to the Mounted Rifles, unless further orders are given.Amendments Claimed Present By-Law Unworkable MR.BEAMAN, ROAD COMMISSIONER, GETS NOTICE TO QUIT POSITION ON THE FIRST OF MARCH.\u201d1 have heard' that some people ; leave their taps running all night so as to use up the quantity of water necessary to secure the lowest rate ; for water provided by the present by-jlaw,\u201d was the statement made by \\ Ald.Denault in support of his amend-1 meats to this by-law submitted to the | council last night.He maintained that the present by-law was manifestly unworkable and unfair, inasmuch as a condition of affairs 'such as mentioned above was possible.PROPOSED CHANGE IN THE WATER RATES.The council did not show a disposition to finally dispose of the new bylaw, and on the suggestion of Aid.Brault the council adjourned and the measure was discussed informally.The most drastic change in the bylaw is the change in rate to manufacturers from a sliding scale of seven and one-half cents per thousand gal-i Ions to thirty cents per thousand gal-j Ions to a straight charge of fourteen 1 cents.! Aid.Je-nckes stated that if this | were put into effect it would mean 1 that the industries would have to ' pump their own water, and this | would mean a considerable loss to the department, as the revenue from industries amounts to quite a lot.At the present time the Jenckes Machine Company was paying from three to four hundred dollars per year for water.For a little more than this they could pump all the water they required.Tf the present amendments became law they would have to pay twice that amount, which they could not afford to do, and, as a result, would install a pumping plant.TRIMMED SEVERAL CLAUSES.At the informal meeting which followed, several clauses were \"trimmed,\u201d and when the by-law is read the third time and passed it will be stripped of its objectionable features.PATRIOTISM-PRODUCTION CAMPAIGN IN TOWNSHIPS First of a Series of Meetings Organized by Mr.John Mc-Clary Largely Attended at Lennoxville.Agricultural Experts Told How Farmers Could Assist in Great Cause by Paying More Attention to Production From Land and Stock.Duty of Canadian Farmers at Present Time to the Empire Forcibly Presented.The first meetings in connection with the patriotism and production campaign in the Eastern Townships, which 1ms been organized by Mr.J.A.McClary, superintendent of the Experimental Farm at Lennoxville, under the direction of the Dominion Department, of Agriculture, were held in the Town Hall, Lennoxville, yesterday afternoon and evening.DUTY OF CANADIAN FARMERS.The duty and opportunity of Canadian farmers to the Empire at this time was very forcibly presented by the lecturers and speakers.The enthusiasm displayed at the meetings yesterday may be taken as sufficient indication of the success of the oth- THE GAS DEPARTMENT.In answer to a question put by Aid.DenauIt at the last meeting, asking if it would not he wise to consider the placing of the gas department ! with the water department, Mr.B.A.i Dugal, accountant of the gas and el-1 ectric departments, submitted a comprehensive report on this question.The gist of the report was that he could see no object In transferring the gas department to the water or any other department.There was always a deficit, and the gas and electric department was in a better position to handle this deficit than the water department.Taken from the electric department this deficit would have to be met from the taxes.The report gave interesting figures as to the cost of manufacturing gas, showing it to be one dollar and sixteen cent* per thousand foot.The retail price was one dollar and a quarter per thousand feet.RECOMMENDS NEW GA& PLANT.The report strongly recommended the installation of a new plant.Tne IContinued on Page 5) MR.JOHN McCLARY, Superintendent of the Experimental Farm, Lennoxville, who organized Patriotism and Production Campaign in Townships.GEHMAN CRUSIER ATTACKED $ That on the Gazella Said to be Work of British Submarines wing and British infantry and caval-, ^araC ry the British withdrew, leaving Address seventeen men dead.The despatch adds that the right | wing of the Turkish army succeeded i in advancing as far as the woods near Komo.The Turks, it Is asserted, captured five hundred camels.Only five Turks were wounded.Date .- DECLINED TO MAKE SHELLS ENTERED THE BALTIC SEA ALTHOUGH ROUTE THICKLY-STREWN WITH MINES Amsterdam, Feb.16\u2014The Berliner Tageblatt says numerous communications leave Little doubt that the recent attack on the German cruiser Gazella was undertaken by British submarines.Russia possesses no underwater vessel adequate to operate so far from its base.The submarines are alleged to have entered the Baltic Sea by way of the Great Belt, although this is thickly strewn with mines.They accomplished this by following closely in the wake of steamships which were carrying a pilot to guide them through the mine fields.Another version says the craft must have been shipped via Russia.DE WET ON TRIAL FOR HIGH TREASON.Bloemfontein, South Africa, Feb.16, via London.\u2014 (Special) \u2014The trial of General Christian Do Wet and other leaders of the South African rebellion against Great Britain, who are charged with high treason, began hers to-day.-f- BERLIN HAS HAD ANOTHER WILD DREAM Pittsburg, Pa., February 16.\u2014 (Special) \u2014Because of \"humanitarian reasons,\u201d one of the largest local steel ITALY ASKS FOR PROTECTION OF ROUIV1ANIA Milan, via Paris, February 16.-\u2014 (Special)\u2014The Italian GovcrnmeuV plate companies, asked by the Pitts-as the result of reports that Austria burg Foreign Trade Commission to I was about to invade Roumania, says | bid on a contract to furnish part of the Corrlere della Sera, has asked, 1,000,000 drop-forge shells, valued at the governments at Vienna and Ber- $4,000,000, wanted by a belligerent lln to give assurances that, no attack government, yesterday declined to will be made on Roumania.make an estimate.IRON CROSSES AWARDED TO EMDEN SAILORS Berlin, via London, February 16- Lieut.-Commander Von Wur._ke, commander of the detail from the cruiser Emden which landed at Cocos Island, has been awarded the Iron Cross, j first class, while every member of the landing party hue received tbB Berlin, February 16, via wireless to London.\u2014 (Special) \u2014 An official statement reading as follows was is-1 sued in Berlin to-day : \"Inasmuch as it is to the interest : of Great Britain that conflicts arise between Germany and neutral powers, It Is thought in German shipping circles that English submarines i in order to bring about this end may !

farmers of the district in being near the Experimental Farm, where help j and advice could always be obtained.! and in the fact that a demonstrator; from Macdonald College was located | amongst them.The Lennoxville boys; had gone to the battlefields, the citizens had subscribed their share ol funds for patriotic purposes, and hi hoped the farmers would do theii part in increasing the production, WORLD\u2019S NEEDS IN CEREALS.Mr.F.0.Nunnick, Agriculturist, of the Conservation Commission, Ottawa, spoke on \"Increased Production as Pertains to Farm Crops.\" He pointed out the world\u2019s needs in cereals\u2014wheat, oats, rye and barley.There was a shortage in these and even had there been no war the crop was smaller than normally ; with the expectation of the devastation and destruction of the European fields, this shortage would probably become more extensive than at the present time, for with the unfavorable conditions under which the European fall crops were put in and the lack of men, motors, labor and all things needed to put in their spring crops, the shortage would be greatly aggravated.PROSPECTS FOR 1915, Mr.Nunnick outlined the prospects for the 1915 crop.There was a large increase in the acreage of fall crops practically all over the world, but with the expectation of our present supply being consumed entirely, even if we had a larger crop in 1915 than in 1914, every bushel would be needed and it was quite safe to say that production could scarcely overtake the demand, at least for this coming year\u2019s crop.HPW TO INCREASE YIELD.The speaker pointed out some means of increasing the yield on the farms, mentioning amongst others the elimination of losses that exist now, \u2018touching on the question of preserving the manure on the farms, the necessity and advantage of sowing only good seed, and the advisability of preventing diseases of crops.As an illustration, he gave the treatment of seed grain for smut, the need for better cultivation, and the need for reducing the loss from weed and insect pests.He also dealt with the /question of conveniences on the farm, labor saving devices such as the use of wider implements and operating by less man power and greater horse and implement power.Taking all things into consideration the economic interests of the fermier united with his patriotic duty in making It safe to stimulate the production on farms this year.LIXH STOCK MARKET (PICKING UP.Mr.E.S.Archibald, B.S.A., ol the Dominion Animal Husbandry Department, spoke on \"Livestock.\" At the outset he said it was difficult to talk, on the live stock industry in regard to increased production as many steers were bought last fall which have been fed at a loss during the winter nnd possibly will have to be marketed at a loss.Many farmers had felt this in the hog industry,this state of affairs being largely due to the weakening af the live stock market and the increase in the price of foodstuffs.In spite of these facts, there was reason to believe the market was beginning to pick up again, and if so, there was an opportunity for a profit margin in feeding live stock.20,01)0,000 NON-PRODUCERS.Owing to the war there were 20,.000,000 non-producers at the present time who previously were producers.This gap must be filled in order to keep up the food supply.It was the duty of the Canadian farmers to do everything in their power not only to fill this gap but to increase production as well.They must stay in the business in spite of weak market» (Continued on Page 8) The Canadian Bank of Commerce WITH WHICH IS UNITED THE Eastern Townships Bank SIR EDMUND WALKER, C.V.O., LL.D., D.C.L.,\t-\t.President ALEXANDER LAIRD, -\t«\t-\tGeneral Manager JOHN AIRD, -\t-\t-\t¦\tAssistant General Manager Capital, $15,000,000 Rest, $13,500,000 * £ THE WEATHER i Moderate westerly winds; Î mostly fair and mild but a £ few local showers.Farmers\u2019 Business The Canadian Bank of Commerce extends to Farmers every facility for the transaction of their banking business, including the discount and collection of sales notes.Blank sales notes are supplied free of charge oa application.BRANCHES IN SHERBROOKE ; Dufferin Avenue (Main Office) .B.Winn Farwell, Manager.A.P.Taylor, Asst.Manager.Wellington Street Branch .».F.A.Briggs, Manager.Upper Town Branch (King Street)\tN.F, Dinning, Manager.13 6 TWO SHERBROOKE DAII2GALT ST.TEL.1269 MARC E.CADIEUX HARDWARE OU 11ST ANNIVERSARY !

whether or not the report recommending the purchase had conic before the finance committee and the council ; whether or not the amount of monev used for the purchase of the lamps was provided for in the estimates ;

Against Punctures and Skidding \u2014 by our double thick All-Weather Tread.Due to Gains In other years as rubber came down in price, we lowered our tire prices apace.As men and methods improved, we improved Goodyear quality.To give you the utmost at the lowest fair margin of profit has always been Goodyear\u2019s business-religion.As our output multiplied, reducing factory cost, our prices came down with it.Last year alone the sales of Goodyear Made-in-Canada Tires were 29 per cent, greater than the year before.Men bought, in numbers, more than one Goodyear Tire -\u2014 -\u2014\u2014\u2014 for every car in Canada.We offer this\u2014not as a boast\u2014but as certain evidence that proves how Goodyear Tires are winning pluralties throughout the Dominion.It shows why we double our capacity.It shows why we can lower prices this way.For this is our third reduction in less than two years.And these three Goodyear reductions have saved you a total of 37 per cent, on tire prices.Ask your Dealer for our new price on the size you buy THE GOODYEAR TIRE § RUBBER \u20ac0.OF CANADA, LIMITED Head Office: TORONTO, ONT.=\tFactory: BOWMANVILLE, ONT.For a long, long time most tires have sold much above Goodyear\u2019s prices* Some makers have asked you one-third higher.A few have sold lower and always will, because of less rubber, less science in construction.But we give you now, as we have always, more for the money than any rival tire can offer.We can do it, remember, because of the large namber of men that Goodyears are winning.Then also because we are content with small profit per tire.This policy, in four short years, has put these Tires at the top.s® WILL ARREST JACK JOHNSON WILL BE EXTRADITED AND RE-/ TURNED TO CHICAGO ON CONSPIRACY CHARGE.Chicago, February 15.\u2014 (Special) \u2014 Jack Johnson, tha negro pugilist, who fled to Europe after being sentenced to a year In federal penitentiary for violation of the Mann Act, will be extradited and returned to Chicago on a charge of conspiracy, according to a, statement to-day by Charles F.Clyne, United States District Attorney.The recent Supreme Court decision in a white slave case, holding that a a conspiracy may be entered into to violate the act was cited by Mr.Clyne as authority for the statement.\"The offence for which Johnson was tried,\u201d District Attorney Clyne said, \u201cIs not extraditable, but conspiracy to violate the United Statfes law is.If the pugilist is not returned through any of our various plans, either before or after his boxing match at Juarez, Mexico, ho will be Indicted for conspiracy, arrested wherever he may be, and brought back.\u201d UÎIC CO.HAPPENINGS Budget if News Friis Various SicUfias if CfiMtry another parcel of socks and other goods ready to send to the Red Oros^ Society.A meeting will be held in Leeds Village on the night of Feb.25th, in the interest of Agriculture.All interested in that matter are invited to attend.There will be several speakers.r DEH0RMN8 CATTLE high a salary as Mr.Beaman was receiving, and notifying him that after March 1st his services would no longer be required unless a new contract was made.The report was accepted without discussion.OTHER REPORT!!.Reports from the finance, market, electric and road committees were submitted and adopted- LEEDS VILLAGE.The Leeds Village Literary Society held their weekly meeting on Friday evening, 12th inst.at the home of Mr.Allan Lefebvre.The ladies spent their time between the readings with knitting for the soldiers.All are working hard for this worthy cause.The annual Church business meeting of Leeds Village Presbyterian Church was held in tho Church on Monday night.The secretary, Mr.O.F.MoOutcheon, read the annual report, which showed that the financial affairs of the Church are in a first-class condition.There is a surplus on hand.A very pleasing part of the evening was the presenting of an address and splendid roll top writing j desk to the secretary, Mr.McCut-cheon, for his able and efficient help as secretary.The ladles of the con-I gregatlon made the presentation.Miss B.Lefebvre and Mr.Amos Church guests of the Misses Neill, of Armagh last week.Word has come to the village that Mr.Andrew Church, an old resident of Leeds, has gone on a trip to Geor-, gia, U.S., for a visit to his brother,!
