it i ii tort of garden cultivation, the
poppy plant being grown in little
squares or beds intersected hy tiny
waterchunnels for irrigation wherever
this in possible. The grow th of the
plants is carefully tended, and nt
length the time, comes when they
burst out into flower, anil the fields
look like a sheet of silver as the white
petals of the flowers glisten in the
morning dew.
These beautiful petals are the first
produce of the crop, for the women
and children of the cultivators' fami
lies come forth and pick them off one
by one and carefully dry them, so that
they may serve af terwuni, as the cov
ering of the manufactured cakes of
opium. Then the poppies, with their
bare capsule heads, remain standing
in the open field until it is considered
that they are ripe for lancing. The
cultivators then come forth in the
evening, and, with an implement not
unlike the knives of a coupling instru
ment, they scarify the capsule on its
sides with deep incisions, so that the
juice may exude. In the early morn
ing the cultivators reappear with a
scraping knife and their earthenware
pots, and they scrape off the exuded
juice and collect it in their pots. And
this is crude opium.

Surrender.
Kaval red tape is as stringent at
that cxiiting in the army, and some
times the enforcement of the regula
tions leads to ludicrous result. Some
years ago, when the late Admiral Sker
rett was a captain, an officer who had
been charged with an offense and or
dered under urrekt presented himself
to be arrested. Th regulations pro
vide that on such occasion the officer
shall be in full dress and weara sword.
The officer wore his uniform, but had
no sword.
"I can't arrest you," nid Capt. Sker
rett, looking for the missing sword,
"unless you come prepared to submit
your sword to me."
The officer explnined that he had
not received his sword from kome,
although it had been expressed to him.
"Well, you'll have to get one," was
the reply.
So the officer tkirmished about in
the nary jard for someone who had a
sword to lend. Finding one, the of
fender returned to Capt. Skerrett and
was promptly and regularly put undec
arrest according to regulations.

In speaking of I he tendency to or

has been felt and is rapidly growing
in the large cities. "Hut," Micsins,
"teachers have ln-eii the last class to
organize effectively for the purpose of

One of the greatest obstacles in the
way of such orgaiiiziition has been tin
sentimental notion that teachers de
grade themselves and their profession
by working imliv idually or collectively
for 'mere material advancement.'
"What is needed now is some demon
stration of the power of intelligent,
well-directed organized effort among
teachers to convince teachers and
others, not that organization is pro
fessional, but that through organiza
tion alone can teachers rid themselves
of the reactionary condition in and
