C, FRIDAY, APRIL S, , 192k W. F. PATB ON PROGRAM OF DRAINAGE CONVENTION - S FIVE pUBUlN- March 23. (Correspond- .cciated Press). women are thf in?p" iii"1 v juw er 0f thf Irish national movement. This is well recognized throughout jreland, even by British government of ficials whose task of subduing Sinn ffin militants and restoring peace has been. made ten-fold more difficult by reawm of it Wherever one goes In this country he hears extolled the spirit of the women." Women shelter, feed and bind up the wounds of the "flying columns" of the Irish republican army. They collect money for the Dail Eireann. they sew ' and nurse and do a hundred other things tnai ia i" women in war lime. tVhat some of them do outside woman's accustomed sphere of activities can onlv be conjectures. Oemral Strickland, governor of the iiupe area now under martial law, told thf correspondent that women car ried concealed under their skirts and cloaks the rifles, bombs and revolvers which were used by the men responsi ble for a number of ambushes of crown forces in the Cork district. Nothing -in the last six months of guerilla flghtins haa more intrigued the imagination of newspaper readers than the arrest of the 14-year-old peas ant girl of Cork county who, wearing steel armor around her body, was caupht while -scurrying across , a field lugging a Iewis machine gun.' Women, according to report, accom panied various parties of the republi can army who snot and killed the 14 British intelligence officers on Dub lin's "Black Sunday" last November. A proclamation recently spread broadcast througn Ireland was headed "Stand Fast!' Say the Women of Ire land." After lauding the republican army the proclamation continued: "We men and women of Ireland will stand by our army till the certain day of vic tory. We gjory in their heroism un der torture and in their deeds of valor in the field. We repudiate the calumny that our brave soldiers are a 'murder gang." We must defy the enemy's in solent command to refuse food and shelter to our own countrymen. We scorn all proclamations that would make Irish men and women traitors to their country, and wo will be as true to our soldiers as Nurse Cavell to Eng land's." Besides the Countess Marklevica there are a score or more of promi nent Irish women serving prison terms or waiting trial for their zealous ef forts to further the cause of Irish in dependence. They include doctors, teachers and several young women con spicuously identified with the Irish lan- ?uage revival. , sectal to The star) , ofCWAFELPflH,IljL; AprU 7-The name SeiS'tWn l? f the North Carolina addld ??K0f ariculture, has been se , convention a -en .

Plant food, and it is potentially rich in nitrogen that is gradually released for plant, growth. It also contains small quantities of potash and phosphorous; it supplies humus, a vital requirement for plant life under natural conditions vi srowm. on account of its black color, jt absorbs heat; soils to whicm Its applied are made pliable and easily worked, and its water-holding capacity protects crops against long dry periods. Peat has been used commercially for SOJI fertilization In tl TTnlt.j cs since 1908 and is coming to be used- c-nicnsiveiy in the manufacture of com mercial fertilizers. But the nitrogen and other plant foods may be extracted not only through chemical processes as ammonium sulphates, but also and here Is the important .point for farm ers these . elements may be made avail able for plant food without first being extracted from the peat. ThuB, by using it in the raw state, peat becomes one of the most extensive domestic sources of introgen that can be con verted into plant food at prices eco nomical to the farmers. Mr. Pate's address and this discussion should be of interest and value to dele gates attending the convention. MESmiMAN WINS PINEHURST, April 7. B. H.

Hot Earned Them Doctors were the last , people to raise their prices during fTie war, al though drugs were affected as much as anything. It was not until 1918 that tees were raised generally and special ists began to charge three guineas in stead of two for a consultation. ' In the fourteenth century doctors' fees were very high, is, apart from the sum paid down, the patient con tracted to allow his medical man an annuity for as long as he lived, or em ployed him. He also ngreed to provide the medical man -with one or m-re suits of clothes yearly. , If every patient undertook to do that medical men must have made a smell fortune out of superfluous clothres alone. This is the advice given by one :Jr-hn Ardene to some beginners in the pro fession in the fourteenth century: "Ask a great man 100 marks, or -10 pounds with robes, and a fee of 100 shillings .yearly for life. Of iess man let him ask 40 pounds without further fees, and let him never fake less than 100 shillings, for never in my life tooi I lss than 100 shillings." London Answers. .
