Above, roped together, soldiers travel across dangerous terrain. : i, 'At right, an instructor demon strates the technique of "climbing down." . WITH an eye on liff t the Mountain bastions guarding Hitler's Europe, the Canadian Army, through the co-operation of crack American alpinists and the Alpine Club of Canada, have initiated full scale training of mountain troops. Fresh out of the tough Army bat tle school at Wainwright, Alta., about 150 men of an Ontario regi ment look the three weeks course. Under guidance of the best alpin ists on the continent, they scram bled over rock, ire and snow to the tops of 10,000-foot peaks. I f Manoeuvers were carried out at some of the highest altitudes the Army has ever been. Weapons ol various types w ere toted up glisten ing, hundreds-of-feet deep glaciers, over mile-long rocky moraines formed by the action of ice, and up jagged precipitous cliffs. ,t Officers and men slept on spruce bough beds under canvas, and those unfamiliar with the mountain cli mate awoke in the morning to find ' with surprise that water had frozen In buckets In mid-July. Of their 25 instructors, the following seven ' American alpinists gave their serv ices: Lt. C. C. Brodley, Madison. Wis.;- Capt. John Jay, New York 'City; B. B. Oilman, Worcester, Mass.; Dr. I. Richards, Cambridge, 'Mass.; Henry S. Hall, Jr., Cam bridge. Mass.; Dr. C. Beatty. Port land, Ore.; Prof. J. Whitney, Har vard University.

Weaver says: A dis charged battery will freeze when the temperature drops slightly under 32 degrees and that the plates may be damaged. If the battery is kept charged, it will w ithstand much lower temperatures without freezing. Wea ver reports that a battery works best at 80 degrees temperature and that when the temperature readies zero, its starting capacity is cut in half. State Col Hints Far.u Humomakers . E. R. Cihson.

After the initial familiarization climb, the unit settled down to a stern training routine. The unit was divided into small groups, each In charge of an instructor. Each group received training in rock climbing, ice-craft and snow-craft, spending every day out in the mountains. In the evenings, lectures were given dealing with ropes, knots, use of Ice-axe and related topics. Mountain barriers and the lack of experienced alpine troops have been serious handicaps to the Allies. Training In mountaineering assures that soldiers vill be able to tackle such country iruthe fu ture with confidence. Heifer Breakfast.

For Piedmont and Mountain soils experience has shown that 5 pounds of Kentucky blue grass, 5 pounds of retop, 5 pounds of orchard grass, 1 to 2 pounds of white clover, and 15 pounds of lespedeza per acre is a good mixture for a permanent pasture. For average Coastal Plain soils a mixture of 10 pounds of Dallas grass, 4 pounds of redtop, 15 pounds of les pedza and 1 to 2 pounds of white clo ver is recommended. Under average conditions. Case re commends that the inexperienced grower begin with native or grade fe males headed by a good bull. As to the breed, he suggests that the grower determine which breed suits him best and is best for his conditions. The breeding and raising of regis tered cattle is a specialized business and that only a small percentage of those entering it make a success.
