The Hay Crop Outlook Not Bright

One of the large dealers and export- ers discussing the outlook for, Cana- dian hay says that it appears to be anything but encouraging, as he can- not see how it is possible to dispose of our surplus hay at present prices ; and that as soon as the grain crops are in, and farmers commence making deliveries of their hay lower prices he thinks must riAe.

the big loss the trade of Montreal sustained in foodstuffs alone by the decline in the export cattle trade whiili used to require 25,000 to 30,000 tons of hay annually for feeding cattle dur-

I ing the ocean voyage, and now that there is little prospect of an export outlet for our hay it is claimed that current prices during the coming sea- son, will be difficult to maintain. On the other hand, there-are those in the trade who are counting on great

. things, as a result of the reduction in I the duty of 82.tKJ per ton on hay go- ing into the United States. But the

! folks at Washington have not yet re- vised the duty. If the American tariff Bill liasses into law no doubt for a time at laast a demand will be created for our hay for shipment to theStates

I New Brunswick and Nova Scotia are reported to have gathered a good average crop of hay in splendid con- dition ; and reports from Western On- tario state that a fair average croi>

; has also been saved there. In East- I orn Ontario the crop is no doubt con- j siderably short of an average the same J as in some parts of this provinse, ! whXst in others it is reported good. ( No one seems inclined to stock up at i present, dealers all buying from hand , to mouth to meet current require- , ments. A considerable qiiaiitity of hay I shipped from here to Newfoundland I some time ago is said to bo lying . there .still.—’iVade Bulletin.

To-morrows Dig Lacrosse Matcii

The Shamrock lacrosse team of Ot- tawa and the local twelve cross sticks on tlie Park Grounds here, to-morrow afternoon, in the final match to decide the championship of the T.ower Cita-

j wa Valley. 3'his match will be **ne of ; the best exliibitions of Canada’s na- ! tional game ever played here, as both teams arc neat stick handlers and

While Shamrocks defeated Alex- andria Saturday by 3 to 2, their most ardent supporter would hardly call them to win on the round. With the match safely tucked away, and with three points in their favor, the locals loosened up their airtight defence in the last period and in a few minntea the Highlanders landed two goalfl* This was the extent of the sc<#ing.

The lacrosse at times was yny ox- citing, and^verged on the sedVgionaL Tl^e wasÆuite a little roug< anl^ the feeling between the ran high at times. Charlie Gauthier, a former Alexandria and Ottawa Uni- versity man, was referee.

Almost a thousand people were on hand. Several hundred came up on the excursion from Alexandria. Their rooting was a feature of the game.

Shamrocks had much the better of the first period, and salted the game by scoring two goals, fi'heir home was working with great precision, and they tore in around t/he heavy Scotch defence with great 'ease. Ainsborough took a flying pass in front, and beat McCaffrey out in ten minutes.

Cecil Duncan, who gave one of the most finished exhibitions on the field, not.ched the second game. This finish- ed the scoring for the first period.

In the second the pace slowed up. ft was mostly rag. Checking became strenuous, and the heavy defence of the Glengarry team hAcl the 'Shams at bay. Both defences were too .strong for the light homes.

^ In the third period there was no scoring. The Alexandria team start- ed in to rip things up. From the start they forc^ the Shams back on the defensive, and held them there for the rest of the period. The lat- ter, through the £mo work of Tink and Ritchie, held the Highlanders out.

In the last period the game fairly sizzled yith good laorosse. Both • homes bon d in recklessly and played

j Faultless combination. . Billy Gurley tore off a nice goal ' after ten minutes. The Scotch home

! took (he bit in its tr'ctb, and in spite ; of the fierce pummelling handed out, ‘ tore right in on the crease. In live , mlniit^ ATarcoux swung around the ‘ back'^'f the not and scored over'fink's

shonjdpi*. A few minutes later ho re- j peated. The Giongarrians stormed i the Shamrock gpal dfisperntelv till ! the end of the game, but the latter ; stayed them off.

There were numerous changes owing I to injuries.

Cameron, Talion, Marcoux, McCaf- I frey and .1. AIcDonald starred for j Alexnaidria. For the Irish, Duncan 1 and AtoCann were the works on the home. On the defence Tink, Ritchie,

No Ralf-Measures for Parcel Post Winnipeg, Sept. 8,—rHon. TJ. P. Pel-

letier, Postmaster-General of Canada, announced today that when the par- cel post service was established in Canada on January 1 it would extend . to every part of the Dominion from East to West. There would be no half measures, **Tho service,” he said,*‘will follow the plans brought forward at Ottawa, and the different provinces will be used as zones.”

“Will the lines of the Canadian ser- vice in any way resemble those of England ?”

“No, it will be entirely different. The difference in the distance to be traveled here renders it impossible for us to run on English lines. The sav- ings to private citizens here,” the Postmaster continued, “will be enor- mous, the rates, of course, being much less than at present, but the expense to the country will be largely increas- ed. It will certainly be a great citizens ,benefit.’ ”

Mr. Pelletier added that when the service was established care would be taken to have the organization as much up-to-date as possible and therefore ensure smooth running.

THAW’S UWYtRS SECURE A DELAY

'Blocked Move to Railroad Him Across the Line—Jerome Placed Under

Arrest for Gambling

Harry K. Thaw will be produced 'before the full King’s Bench, appeal •Ide, at Montreal, ..ftpit Monday.

Meantime he may be detained at Coaticoolc or at Sherbrooke, or taken to Montreal on a moment’s notice, at the discretion of the Immigration Suthorlties. ’Two of his counsel, J. N.

Iresnshlelds and N. K. LePlamme, obtained a double writ—habeas cor- pus and prohibition—at Montreal last Friday and whirled in a special train Into Coatlcooke, where not long be- fore the Immigration authorities had ordered Thaw’s deportatlcai from the Dominion. '

Counsel for TTKIW prepared a special train to carry him to Montreal im- mediately after the issuance of the writ but it was discovered that such baste was unnecaseary. A special ttaln however, was called Into use to rush the habeas corpus document from Uontreal to Coatlcook immediately after Mr. Justice Cross and Mr. Jus- tice Gervals had granted the writ.

Thaw’s lawyers played a trump card Is thus securing a stay in the pro- ceedings which bid lair early last "Week to hurry him back to Matteawan, Judge éutchlneon of Sherbrooke found that ®/could not legally be held In Jail Ob', the charges whU4 had l^n made against him and ^ered^ls release. As Thaw left the courtroom he was taken in charge by Dominion Immigration officers and hurried to Coatlcook where he was given a hear- ing and ordered deported on the ground that he entered Canada by •tealth and hod been in an asylum less <han five years ago. It weis then that his lawyers secured a stay In the pro- tCeedlngs by appealing to Montreal.

A side Issue of the famous case was jlhe arrest of WTlllam Travers Jerome, legal representative of New York •Jltate, at Coatlcocdt for gambling, jerome readily acknowledged having played a game of poker for small Jtakes with some newspapermen in an ^ntomohile whfle avraltlng the de- •;dslon of the Immigration officers. .The gambling charge was laid by a IprlTate citizen.

Clever Forger Had a Most Carefully Worked Out Scheme

The police in several Ontario centres are now actively engaged in efforts to locate James Ray, who is carrying around with him something over $12,000, which he secured from banks in Hamilton, Galt, Berlin, Guelph and Lindsay. Ray operates by the old

'.trick of a forged letter of introduction. represented himself as a Saskat-

chewan farmer, with letters of credit from* branch hank managers in the west.

Early last week Mr. Saunders, man- ager of the Union Bank at Guelph re- ceived a letter from the UnioE Bank at Saskatoon. The letter stated Mr. Ray, a particularly good customer of the Union Bank of Saskatoon was go- ing to take a trip east on business, and that Guelph would be Included m his Itinerary. Mr. Ray, the letter .«tated. might find it necessary to draw on his account while on the trip and the amount required at Guelph would he in the neighborhood of $3,000. The letter was signed by the manager and accountant'and contained a specimen signature of Mr. Ray. Living up to his advance notices Ray arrived at the bank Thursday and identified him- self as Mr. Ray, of Saskatoon. He calmly cashed a cheque for $2,700, appending exactly the same signature that the bank had received a few days before from Saskatoon. He followed the same method in the other cities and worked so rapidly that he had victimized five branches before news of his operations had been made pub- lic.

Ray is reported to have worked his game successfully at Brantford, Wood- stock, IngersolL getting over two thousand dollars from branch banks in each of those places.

be In This Town ?

t

If you are an “ad.” reader and answerer you are “price- wise”—you know what things should cost, whether these things are articles of merchan- dise, real estate, chatties, used furniture or machinery, cloth- ing or personal services.

Having this knowledge you ^ know a “bargain” as soon as you see it. Thus, to an ad. read- er, theadS' grow ic interest.

Keeping The Herd H.althy The farmer who hopes to succeed in

a financial way must keep his herds and flocks in a healthy condition. An- imals are much more sensitive to their suri'oundings than many of us suppose and diseases are liable to creep in sur- repifeitiously. Constant vigilance is the only safeguard.

Animals should be kept on pasture and out of doors aa much as possible. Sunshine is one of the most powerful disinfectants known and fresh air is an antidote for many animal ills. The live stock farmer therefore must have an abundance of pasture. In 'order that the animals may have urotection from the hot rays of the sun in the summer time shade should be provided. This is not a difficult thing to do, and if the pastures should happen to be without natural shade, it is a comparatively easy matter to provide a temporary shelter or to fence in a small tract of woodland so that the necessary shade may be available.

Pastures and pasturelands have nev- er received the consideration which their importance merits in the United States. The grazing lands should be frequently inspected and harrowed, disked and even plowed. ^Some fertiliz- er to balance up the nitrogen returned to the soil in the form of manure should be applied. For pastures bone meal provides a very desirable form of phosphorus, and will be found veiy beneficial on most of our southern grazing lands. Applications of lime will help the grass materially,' especial ly on soils where there is a tendency to acidity and where undesirable grass and weed growths tend to choke out the plants which are most valu- able for grazing purposes. It ndll not cost much to give pastures the added attention which their importance mer- its, yet they respond splendidly to a little care and attention and reward the farmer by larger returns of mflk or beef per acre.

Native grasses should be utilized for pasture purposes as largely as pos- sible, and where these fail some of the hardier and better known tame grasses and clovers should be used. The pas- ture may frequently be made of great service during the winter season. If some of the clovers which thrive best at that season of the year are em- ployed a good deal of picking will be provided througho|it the year. The animals will obtain wholesome and much needed exercise in the open air, thus tending to keep the circulation and digestion in good condition. Of course, the pastures should uot bo grazed in extremely wet weather, and even though they may nov fri»-Dish much feed during the winter season they are most valuable In maintaining the health and vigor of tae herd.

Burr clover, white clover and the vetches may be sown on most pastuie lands with considerable. F.dvan’'.ago and after they become well e.<tabli»hthey will reproduce themselves. Where them make a good growth, the amount of roughness needed will be materially re- duced and the farmer who does not possess a silo will find that his anim- als thrive much better than upon the dry coarse food upon which îi»' gen- erally attempts to maintain them. Therefore, an effort should f'e made on every farm to encourage (he growth of such legumes and tame grassa.s as will provide a consider.able ‘ivioirit of grazing in the winter Je.as.Yn.

IMiere animals are kept -n SDy con- siderable number the silo shouM be depended on as a source of succulent feed in the winter time. It is HIT pois- ing how small an area of i.ind n.ay be made to fill a silo holdiri|g >i9 much as 130 to 150 tons. Silage is one of the most wholesome winter .feeds. I have ever seen utilized, and 'it is worth more than any amount of money in- vested in medicine. The silage acts as a relaxing tonic to the system. It helps .to keep the bowels regulated and the appetite on edge. It takes tbo place of grass in a most satisfactory manner. It provides an ideal compan- ion food to use with many of the more concentrated foodstuffs on the market which might otherwise not be so well digested and assimilated. Animals re- ceiving silage will shed off about thir- ty days earlier in the spring and will present a sleeker and better appear- ance throughout the entire winter sea- son. Every farmer who is engaged in the live stock business to any consider able extent will find the silo the cheap est and most valuable asset on h£s

Tf the animals must be confined dur- ing the winter season let the stables be light and well ventilated. If they are to be kept in a barn with storage above it should bo tightly floored so that the dirt will not fall down from above nor the breath of the animals contaminate the feed. While the stable should have plenty of windows and doors they should be so arranged as to prevent cold draughts. Many forms of ventilators are now on the market and they may be easily installed. In most places the south artificial ventil- ation will not be necessary because of the large amount of sunshine through- out the winter season.

A good yard on the outside of the stable .should be provided and should be kept dry and in a cleanly condition as an exercise lot. In this lot there should be plenty of rock salt, and this should be kept in the kastures. Pure water is one of the most important things in maintaining the animals in a vigorous condition. The troughs should be cleaned out frequently and scoured well with saksoda or some- thing to sweeten them. The same is true of the mangers. All opinions to

. the contrary, animals are frequently more dainty in their tastes than the owners permit them to be.

To maintain animals on dry .rough feed throughout the winter season is a policy devoid of common sense, and where one can not have a silo a graz- ing area should be provided in the vicinity of the stable on which the an- imals' may be turned from time to time. A patch of rye, oats, barley or any other crop which grows satisfact- orily in the colder months of the year will answer every purpose. Medicine should not be used to any appreciable extent, and should only be resorted to in the last extremity. Then it should be of a simple character and purchas- ed directly from the drug store by the owner. This will be found cheaper and more satisfactory than to purchase the nostrums so frequently suggested. An- imals suffering from indigestion will often recover if given a dose of oil or Glauber salts and fed bran mashes for a few days. Sometimes a tonic or con dition powder will be found helpful, es- pecially with horses. Simple treatment and care and skill in management will do infinitely more than quantities of medicine. Disinfectants should be used in and about the stables from'time to time. A 5 per cent, solution of coal tar dips will be found very efficient.

iThe animals should be kept free from [ lice and curried as frequently as pos- 1 »ble. This keeps the, skin free from dirt and also aids circulation.

All animals should be tested 4or tu- berculosis at least once a year. This is one of the most dangerous and de- structive diseases, especially to stock- men engaged in either beef-raising or dairying. • The test can be made quite easily and at a reasonable cost. The loss of one animal a yeas from this trouble wiA more than offset the ex- pense involved in making the test. If this disease once obtains a foothold in the herd it is extremely difficult to eradicate, and if neglected will result in a short time in the practical de- struction of the herd as a producing unit.—Andrew M. Soule, Georgia Col- lege of Agriculture.

Pure Bred Stock While the poultry farmer shoi^d not

advocate fancy poultry culture, it must not be implied that he is to be a foe to thoroughbred poultry, nor Opposed to advertising stock for sale as breeders, or even eggs for hatching if desired. He does not champion the mongrel cause. On the other hand he believes that where mongrel are already on the farm, they should be graded^p to better poultry. This can be readily done by using pure bred males of one variety only, changing blood of the same annually.

He may believe in half-breeds (crosses of males and females of strictly pure bred percentage, though of different families) when certain ob- jects are to be gained, especially in a meat supply.

But above all, particularly in con- sidering an egg product by all means use thoroughbreds. Cross bred pullets generaHy lay more eggs during their first year than do pure bred pullets, but after that we believe the thorough breds will give the best returns. In thoroughbreds, however, strong con- stitutions; well developed bodies,broad backs and full breasts, and strong egg powers are to be sought after. This can all be obtained in thoroughbreds if the fowls are not bred too closely to feather. It is possible to keep the stock strictly pure, and at the same time attractive in appearance, if too much stress is not put on breeding for points that have no particular value only filling the whims of a standard built by judges or fanciers who do not cater to the commercial side of poultry culture, but whose profits lie in the production and exhibition of purely fancy stock.

If the farmer can breed up his fowls to conform with all practical parts of the standard, and at the same time breed them to good egg records, and attractive carcasses, we believe it will pay him to advertise such stock—either the sale of breeders or eggs for hatch- ing or both—and he will be doing good work. We want better poultry for the farmer. Tvet the fancier to his task of producing and maintaining the breeds and then to the farmer let the work of utility be assigned. Get big egg records and advertise them. There are hundreds, yes, we might say thou- sands, who would rather buy fowls with egg records than they would birds that score high with nothing to com- mend them.—American Poultry Advo- cate. •

The Profitable Cow One of the important factors to be

considered in successful dairying and in selection of cows for the dairy is that of the persistent milker. Many cows when fresh produce quite heav- ily, but begin to àrop off in their milk flow before the lactation period has advanced more than three or four months, at which time the daily pro- du^ction wAl do well if it amounts to half as much as it did at first. How- ever, where it is necessary to have as large and as uniform an amount of milk as possible throughout the year, as in the case of the milk route, it is quite unsatisfactory not to have some idea of how much milk each cow can be depended upon to give at different periods throughout the year. It is the purpose here, therefore, to discuss some methods whereby the milk flow may be kept up for a longer time than that of the average

! cow under the average conditions. ‘ A very practical and profitable method of inducing persistency and increasing the milk flow consists in having the cow freshen in the fail instead of in the spring or summer. Turning the cows out on grass after they have spent the first four or five months of their lactation p>eriod on dry feed causes them to practically refreshen. The succulent feed puts them ki good condition and stimulates an increased milk flow, which results in a lengthening of the lactation per- iod and an average increase of from 10 to 20 per cent, in the milk and butter-fact production.

The fall and winter months are also more favorable to the highest produc- tion. During July and August the heat is so intense and the flies are such an annoyance as to cause the cows to shrink considerably in their milk. Fall freshening would allow the cows to be dry during fly time, and tbe usual shortage of pasture, thujs saving the work and expense of trying to milk cows under such trying conditions.

Drought also comes about this time, and pastures suffer according to ihe severity of the drought, often being practically of no use for the rest of the season. At any rate, this further helps to reduce the milk flow, making sum- mer dairying still more unprofitable. It is next to impossible, too, to get the cows back to their normal production when once they get down in their milk

USE SILAGE AND

SOILING CROPS.

Silage may be advantageously used in the summer during the usual short- age of pasture, and is very effective in keeping up the flow of milk. It is very convenient as a summer feed, as it always ready to use, and is relished by the cows, no matter how muoh other feed is on hand. Silage also has an ad- vantage over soiling crops, in that less space is necessary to furnish a given amount of feed, and there is not the ^ork connected with its use that there is with getting ready soiling crops each day or two. Silage apoAs more in sum- mer than in winter, but where the silo is limited in diameter, so that about 2 inches of the surface is removed daily, there will be but a very slight amount of waste.

The third point to be considered is the in^dividuality of the cow herself.

^Too often the idea is held that the pro duction of milk and butter fat is di- rectly dependent upon the amount of food consumed. Then it is that the cows are fed large amounts of rough- age and grains, while their owners ex- pect a noticeable increased produ)stion. The production of milk and butter-fat is dependent upon some inherent, stim- uKating principle that is formed in the body of the cow, which acts upon ‘the milk secreting glands. The capacity for the production of large amounts of milk is inherited, and can not be fed into a cow.

It is the feeder^s business to find out a cow's milk producing ability and then feed her accordingly, giving her only such kinds and amounts of the differ- ent feeds as are necessary to supply her individual needs. If she is not up to the standard set for the cows of her herd, she should be disposed of and her place filled by one that has the abil- ity when kept under the same condi- tions to meet the requirements.—Suc- cessful Farming.

Storage of. i'%..

There have been. advanced from time To ti cerning the advantages vantages of the cold- storagft Since the storing of eggs an products was flrst'tfoxnmencetl improvements of storage have been installed.

When the attempt is made to \ termine the effect I of cold-stotKi preservation by an examination prices actually prevailing before ftir ^ facilities were available, and coinpj these with the prices that have obtained, it is difficult to sepaann and distinguish the effect oTr <»)ld* storage preservation from the effécts of other factors which may have'- af- fected the price levels of oertai commodities. The quality of. marketed has graduallv : impro^ within recent years, and this;^ provement is only one factor tenf towards the higher price for eggs./ demand for eggs has been gra4\ increasing, and this is Another pq factor tending towards the graâ rise in price of this cominow There are known relations of .-'hupps demand and price from which dl ductions as to the effect of a prao-' tical preservation of perishable foods may be made with reasonable oer* ^ tainty. Facts which apply to the egg trade also apply to the dressed poul* try trade, inasmuch as the quality -of the dressed poultry offered and the methods of marketing samq have, greatly improved of late years. ,i x'v!

COLD STORAGE PREVENTS '■ WASTE.

The production ot eggs and dressed , poultry is to a certain extent season- able. They cannot, howevetv b® con- sidered as seasonable, strictly speak- ing, as fruit and certain Other com- modities. The longer the season o£ available supply the more can bo sold and produced. Cold storage preser- vation extends the period of available supply to a greater or less extent. It is efficient in preventing waste in a. season of glut, and with product

\which can be preserved for a long time in acceptable condition, it per- mits a greater profitable production during the season of maximum yield by extending the period durmg which,> surplus can be offered to consmneVf. at reasonable prices. If there yretit no means of preservation, au4 if the

j cold storage system did not 'exfat, it is evident that the production of

< dressed poultry and eggs pariictilarly ! would be limited as q rule by the quantity that could be profitably sold

I into consumption during the limited

r

Regularity of the bowels is an absolute neces- sity for good health. Unless the waste matter from the food which collects there is got rid of at least once a day, it decays and poisons the whole boefy, carusing biUoosness, indi- gestion and sick headaches. Salts and other har^ mineial purgatives irritate the delicate Hning of the bowels.

Fancy and Utility To all observers of poultry condi-

tions it is plain that the fancy helps the utility part of poultry keeping and the utility cud tends to popularize the fancy. When a person adopts the fancy as a hobby and learns to like a variety of a general purpose breed, no matter whether his fowls win prizes or arc disqualified, ho may rest assured that they have a market

,value according to their weight. Many jwho enter the ranks of fanciers for the love of it may be compelled to be utility fanciers from necessity. Those who care nothing for feathers or fan- cy points are benefited the woik of the fanciers. Each standard breed has demonstrated its adaptation to a certain location, climate conditions, degrees of confinement, requisites of the markets, so that the utility poul- try 4*aiscr may select what he la'cds and feel certain of satisfactory re- sults. Their demands each year create a market for a class of ''a little too good to kill" birds in the fancier's flock and he is glad to get ril of them to make room for the bttier, more nearly perfect ones, and so there should be no dividing line be- tween fancy and utility. The one helps the other and neither can get *»h>ng separately. I have never been qble to locate the lino of demonstratiDu; per- haps there isn't any. I do know lhat there is more fancy-utility poullry and also some utility-fancy poultry, and I have concluded that the fan- ciers and utility poultry keepers woik hand in hand in many ways, thus in- creasing the value and importance of the poultry industry. As a remit of this co-operation, we shall have not more poultry, but a better quality,

■ and improvement will continue all along the line.

We regret exceedingly to loose your presence and assistance. We shall al- ways cherish happy memories of past occasions when your help ^^a8 so freely given in the Sabbath School, in the W.F.M.S. and in this Society of which you are so worthy a member.

Aa a alight token of esteem we wouldask you to accept this purse, in the hope that God‘ in His kind and gracious providence will lead and guide us all to the home of the redeemed, where separations are no more. And in the words of the hymn we have often sang together, WQ would say, “God be with you till we meet again.”

Signed on behalf of the Society, D. W. McLeod.

Cenada’s Financial Position Sound

Ottawa, Sept. 1.—The attitude of financial London today is more favor- able to Canadian enterprises than it was a month or six weeks ago. At that time there existed almost a pre- judice against Canadian securities,” said Hon. W. T. White, minister of finance, yesterday, in an interview on his return to the capital from Eng-

“The reason for this feeling was the gener^ financial stringency in London and on the continent, which excited

I apprehension as to. morkey conditions j during the coming fall and made I bankers look askance at heavy bor- j rowings on the p^t of any country, j An additional factor undoubtedly was j the circumstance that considerable i English money, has been lost in cer- tain real estate and,other investments

j in Canada. The day of the wild-cat ! real estater and the company promoter I with the fraudulent prospectus is done

in Ix)ndon for some time to come.

REAUZE THE SITUATION.

• The leading financial men in Lon- don, however, understand -.c Canad-

i ian situation thoroughly and know : that a certain amount of promotion of the character mentioned is inevit- able in a period of development such as ('anada is passing through. They

. also know that a very heavy burden i has been cast upon western and other j municipalities in providing public ser- : vices adof^uate to meet the needs of ' communities whose populations have ! doubled, trebled and in some cases I more than quadrupled in the last five ; or ten years.

j “The causes of the world-wide stringency,” he said, “were two-fold. First, there have been almost unpre-

! cedented demands for capital in all I parts of the world during the past j few years. This condition in itself pro- , bably would have produced tight j money at this particular f)eriod. The

Miss Kate MeSweyn spent Monday afternoon the guest of Miss Ga )*(!iine McGillivray.

Prayer meeting in the hall on .^lon- day evening was largely attended.

other factor has been of course, the great Balkan War, and the apprehen- sion which it excited of the possibility of a general conflagration. As a re- sult of the war vast amounts of gold have been hoarded 'in Aurope and bankers, have, of course, curtailed credits and made themselves as liquid as possible, thus strengthening their gold reserves.

WAR THE’BIG FACTOR.

Of the two factors, in my opinion the war was the most important, and on its termination there is a decided- ly easier tone in the world’s money markets and notably in London,where the gold reserves of the Bank of Eng- land now are higher than they have been at the same period for many years. There proDably will not be easy money in T.ondon this fall, but rates will be considerably easier than they have been and much easier than was anticipated a month ago.”

The Minister .expressed the opinion with confidence that Canada would continue to find in London capital adequate for the... requirements of legitimate enterprise and undertak- ings. ‘“With regard to municipal securi-

ties,” he said, is well understood in London that the -debentures of our chief cities are of the soundest char- acter as investments. T'her© has unfor- tunately in the past few months been a congestion of C'anadian municipal se- curities on the I.ondon money market, but this is gradually clearing up.”

READY TO MEET LOAN. ,

The Minister dealt with a number of Canadian topics upon which he was questioned. On his attention being drawn to the fact that a loan is matur ing on October 1 next, Mr. White re- plied that it would be met without the

list of FireODon’ts New York, Sept. 2 — Realizing the

importance of the small boy as a per- nicious factor in the starting of fires, the central office of the Boy Scout of America in this city is today sending out in its weekly bulletin to the Boy Scouts a list of two dozen “l^'ire

\ Don’ts” compiled by George D. Porter, director of public safety of Philadel- phia. The list is part of an article written for the Boy Scouts in the Sep- tember issue of their magazine, “Boy Life,” dealing with instruction of the boys in usefulness in fire emergencies.

Here are the simple precautions given to the boys by Mr. Porter :

Don’t kindle fires in stoves with kerosene.

Don’t put hot ashes and coal in wooden barrels or boxes.

Don’t thaw out frozen water pipes with a torch or lamp. T)on’t allow waste paper, excelsior,

and rubbish to collect. Don’t use gasoline for cleaning in a

closed room. ^on’t look for gas leaks with a

match or lamp. Don’t allow lace curtains near gas

brackets. Don’t allow oily rags near stoves or

about the premises. Don’t allow sawdust to be used in

cuspidors or on floors. Don’t throw waste j)aper in a fire-

Don't throw cigarettes or cigars away if lighted.

Don’t keep matches in paper boxes or lying about carelessly.

Don’t use snapping parlor matches. Don’t forget that matches are the

beginning of many conflagrations. Don’t hang your clothing near op>en

fires or stoves. Don’t fill lamps after dark, and never

when lighted. Don’t allow rubbish in hallways or

on fire escapes. Don’t burn leaves and dead grass on

windy days. Don’t forget to chimneys

Care of the Person Now that fashion has ruthlessly

taken rats and all their hindered from women and decreed close hairdressing and small heads, the problem is a try ing one. That many women very sen- sibly solve it by making no effort to achieve the radical in close hairdress- ing is proved by the well-groomed heads seen on the streets.

Moderately rolled pompadours and coils and knots and puffs are there a plenty, but the fact remains that the smartest hair-dressing of the season calls for locks flatly coiled over the head, with a low pompadour or fringe to soften the forehead, and when vhis style suits the shape of the head and the face it is very pretty.

Unluckly, instead of looking well- groomed, the head, whose owner has attempt^ to dress her hair m this fashion, is very likely to look uncom- monly frouzy and matted. If the thing cannot be done well, it is better for women to hold to their pompadours and coils, and if the latter are more becoming than the ‘^casque" and its hindered, hold to tnem anyway.

The one law of hairdressing is that first, last and always the coiffure shall suit the individuality of the woman, and the woman who has discovered a simple and supremely becoming fashion of wearing her hair will do well to stick to it through all the changing modes.

The modish ^hair today is most often parted and worn very low on the fore- head, a thing made necessary by the low-poised hats, and since it is diffi- cult to make partee hair dsop low ov- er the centre of the forehead, the fringe has come into favor. Not an old-timw bang, mind you, but a mere shadow of a fringe that softens without hid- ing and breaks the line of the waving* parted locks without really , filling in the point.

Women, as a rule, do not take pro- per care of the hair. They dry it out with frequent and careless shampooing and with hot irons, do not give it proper brushing, airing and rest, do not let it tave oil enough to impart lustre and handle it so carelessly that they break it off with every combing.

Such abuse brings about a condition of hair that does not lend itself read- ily to the closely coiled coiffure, which should be glossy smooth, exquisitely finished, though fluffy withal. The tousle-headed girl and the deplorable condition of the average woman’s hair today are results of the cult of *‘fluf- finess,” and if smooth and beautiful and epidemic as the hobble skirt or the Robespierre collar, fashion makers would indeed have earned a permanent place in the hearts of their fellow mor- tals.

'J'he hair ornaments worn with even- ing toilets t^d to ' keep the hair in place and encourage the neat and trim air of the small coiffure, for most ef them are on the fillet or bandeau or- der. Pearls and other jewels or imita- tion jewels are used. Sequin and head bands, usually less expensive than the jeweled ones, are ' liked too, and any one of these narrow bands is likely to hold an ornament posed wherever fan- cy dictates.

SWEET PICKLED CUCUMBERS.

Ripe cucumbers arc used for the sweet pickle. Pare, seed and cut seven pounds of them into inch slices. Cook in vine- gar and water, half and half, with the addition of a little salt, until clear- looking, but not too soft. Drain in a colander. Now, to the seven pounds of cucumbers allow four pounds of su- gar, a pint of cider vinegar, a dozen whole cloves, two blades of mace, a few cassia buds and a good sprinkling of stick cinnamon. Put sugar, spices and vinegar in the preserving-kettle, bring to the boiling point, add the cucumbers and scald until thoroughly cooked, hut not mushy. Drain and when cool pack in jars with a few raisins between the layers. «

BENGAL CHUTNEY.

Cook together a quart of good vine- gar with a pound of sour, unripe ap- ples, peeled, cored and cut in pieces. Cook, when soft rub through a colan. dor, then return to the preserving ket- tle, with one pound of moist sugar, half a pound of dates cut in small pieces, half a pound of raisins seeded and chopped, two ounces of ginger chopped and pounded, a good sized clove of garlic, well chopped/, an ounce of salt, and half an v ounce of red pep- per. Cook together about twenty min utes, stir and mix thoroughly; Uirn in to an earthen jar and set in a warm comer overnight. In the morning put into small, wide-mouthed jars, cork well and set in a cool place. This chut ney is eatable if used at once, but is far more delicious if allowed to mel- low and ripen for several months.

CHEESE BISCUIT.

Use the recipe for a good baking powder biscuit. Divide the dough in- to two parts. Roll it into sheets about one-fourth inch in thickness. Cover the one thickly wdth grated cheese, lay the other on top, cut into small blocks, brush the tops with melt ed butter, sprinkle lightly with cheese, and bake in a quick oven about twen- ty minutes. Tliese should be eaten hot.

SLICED OIL PICKLE.

Slice very thin one hundred small cucumbers about the ciilcumference of a quarter, and, if liked, add six onions also sliced. Cover with salt and let stand overnight. In the morning rinse with cold water and put in a sack to drain. Mix three quarts of cider vine- gar, one half-cupful each of white and black mustard seed, one cupful of olive oil, one heaping tablespoonful of cel- ery-seed, a half-teaspoonful of red pepper and a half-teaspoonful of white pepper. Pour cold over the cucumbers in an open jar, let stand a day or two, stirring occasionally, then seal in

GREEN TOMATO CHOW-CHOW. Chop fine one-half bushel of green

tomatoes, one-half dozen green peppers and one dozen onions. Sprinkle with a pint of salt and let stand overnight. In the morning drain, cover with good cider vinegar and cook slowîy one hour ; then drain and pack in jars. Take two pounds of sugar, two table- spoonful of cinnamon, one tablespoon- ful each of allspice and cloves and pep- per, i cupful of grovnd mustard and 1 pint of grated horseradish, with vine- gar enough to mix well. When boiling hot, pour over the pickle in the jars and cover tightly. This will keep for years. GRAPE SYRUP.

This is fine for flavoring and color- ing jellies, ices, etc. Take fully ripened grapes of strong flavor, mash thoroughly and let stand in the sun or a warm place for a day or two Then pour into a bag and let drain without squeezing.

To each pint of juice add two pounds of granulated sugar, put over the fire and stir constantly until the sugar is enlirtSy dissolved and it reaches the boiling point. Then re- move from the fire, and when cold bottle and cork tightly. GRAPE JUICE FOR WINTER.

Be sure to put up a plentiful supply of grape juice for winter.

If fortunate enough to have your own vines, the juice can be put up for less than five cents a quart bottle; and even if they have to be purchased there is a big reduction from the price of thetrade article. The juice may be put up with or without sugar, as preferred.

For the former here is a Wellesley recipe that is never known to fail : Pick the grapes from the stems, re- jecting all that are soft or imperfect. Throw into cold water and wash. To one peck of grapes allow three quarts of water.

Put into a porcelain lined kettle and simmer until the grapes are soft. When cooked, strain, taking care not to press any of the palp through the bag. To each quart of the juice allow two-thirds of a cupful of sugar, r.et come to a boil.

Skim carefmlly, and pour at once into sterilized bottles, which should be left standing in hot water to avoid breaking. Seal immediately and put away in a cool place.

In Green and White À stunning drees can be made

from oyster-white linen embroid- ered in a rather subdued emerald green. Buttonhole a diagonal row of green scalloping frcmi the neck to the Attorn of the skirt and place from six to twelve white croohet buttons, the number depending upon the size,along the row of scalloping on the waist and continuing on down below the waist line for some distance on the skirt Each white crochet button should have in its center a large green French knot. The lay-down collar and turn-back cuffs of the dress 'are scalloped in green and in the curve of each of the collar and cuff scallops is nestled a group of three green French knots. One large knot may be used if preferred. A spray of green leaves worked solidly on the front of the waist, or a soft green silk tie slipped, under the collar and knotted in front, carries out the color scheme. Wear with the dress a crush green silk girdle with the popular ends at the side back or a green suede leather belt. This costume over a green silk under- skirt t hat occasionally peeps out above white-.shod feet should make, at the very least, an “impression.” Heavy, clinging linen should be used, and no linging linen should be used, and no

starch should be used in laundering it.

An Embroidered Gingham When one decides upon a hand-em-

broidered dress, a perfectly plain, one- color material is almost invariably se- lected. Consequently, when not long ago an ingenious needlewoman dis- played a hand-embroidered figured gingham to a group of women friends it caused a mild sensation.

The material used was an exceed- ingly fine lavender-and-white mer- cerized gingheim — a white gro'und croesbarred with lavender pinstripes forming about three-quarter-inch squares. It was made quite simply, with an opening down the side that had the effect of reaching to, the hem of the skirt, but which in reality reached only about twelve inches be- low the waist line. .The neck was cut low and rounded and the sleeves reached a trifle below the elbow. The side opening above referred to was composed of three little projecting “pyramids” or scalloped points, but- tonholed in lavender, above the waist line, and three of the same scalloped points below. From the pyramid points stretched a straight line of scalloping to the, very edge of the skirt.

The points were formed of two scallops on each side made in a Want- ing line and a connecting scallop on top, giving them the pyramid appear- ance of being “piled up” and making five scallops to each point. Around the neck was an even row of scal- loping, and straight rows of scal- loping were also about the edge of each of the straight sleeves. Across the front of the waist and close under the scalloped neck was a fanlike spray of violets worked in lavender.

The violets were without foliage, but about their stems was worked a graceful lavender bow. The centers of the flowers were worked in eyelets. A haff dozen single violets trailed down to the waist line, as though falling from the bunch above. There was a smaller spray of violets on each sleeve near the scalloped edge. In the tip-end scallop of each of the six scal- loped points forming the side opening was a lavender crochet button. These gave an additional touch of attract- iveness to the ’ dress besides covering the stitches made by the fastening of a hook under each point.

The dress could be worn simply as a morning dress or be made into an afternoon frock by basting a lacs frilling in the sleeves and wearing a lavender sHk girdle. If one cannot crochet the lavender buttons required, or cannot procure the correct shade at the store, white crochet buttons with from one to three French knots placed in their exact centres will answer the purpose.

WILD GRAPE PRESERVES.

Take six pounds of green, unripe, wild grapes, cut them open on one side with a sharp kntfe, remove the seeds, weigh the fruit and allow an equal weight of sugar.

Put the prepared grapes in a kettle and put on a little cold water, just enough to show on top of the fruit; boil, skim and sprinkle over the fruit one quarter of the sugar allowed ; bring to a boil, pressing the grapes under the syrup, but not breaking them.

THE NEWBVILDlNa MA TER!AL For Interior and Exterior Work.

Better than lath and plaster for interior of buildings.

Warmer and cooler than brick or cement.

Warmer, cooler and more durable than frame for exterior of building.

FIBRE~BOARO Is pure wood fibre compressed into solid homogenous boards by tremen- dous hydraulic presses. It is thor- oughly baked to remove all moisture, so that it is absolutely dry and cannot warp, crack or shrink. It is not a number of thin layers pasted together, as other so-called wall boards are. It is one solid-jriece of the same material. It is pressed and dried perfectly flat and therefore will not buckle or bow between the studs, like larger boards that are built up on rollers. It is nailed on the studding with common in. wire nails. Can be sawn with an or- dinary fine tooth saw. Does not re- quire skilled mechanics—anyone can put it on.

For interior work it can be finished by papering, the same as a plastered wall, or painted or alabastined, or coated with a putty coat of plaster.

For exterior work it can be painted or coated with rough coat.

Grenville Wall Board has many ad- vantages over lath and plaster for interior work. It is cheaper more quickly applied, leaves no dirt to be cleaned up, will not crack or jar ofi, and is an excellent insulator for heat, cold and sound.

Fibre Board comes in boards 3 by 4 ft. by ^in. thick for interior work, |in. or 1 inch thick for exterior work. It is sold directly to users only through the company's own agents, no dealers or middlemen’frpr^'fits.

Box !t>|^Tieat the Bine Dirt in tke

4nWamberly Region. j Writing Johannesburg, E. W. ^

Howe tells kow the diamonds are taken ' from the mines in South Afriea. Briefly, j ^e process of finding the diamonds is ^ as follows :

„ The blue dirt in which the diamonds ; are found is brought to the surface pre- | eiaely as coal is hoisted and mined in about the same way. It is then placed : la little iron cars and hauled to a level fteld, where it is spread over the surface i io a uGçth of two feet. This is done

permit the weather to disintegrate ' dirt and render its washing easier, j

Te-day I saw a field of 4,000 acres cov- j ared with this blue dirt. It will remain ! •ot in the weather a year before it is

\ treated in the washing mills. I Tou might pause a moment and

Aink of that 4,000 acre field,* covered W a depth of two feet with the bine wtei in which diamonds are found. The 4^000 acre field I saw represented the acitout of only one mine; there are aint in the Kimberly district, only two

which are kno?m to be duffers, as say here—that is, of little value.

And yon may rest assured that this 4^090 acre field is carefully guarded. It Is surrounded with a baibed wire fence fourteen feet high, and on the top of the fence are four wires spread out in : •ueh a way that no one could possibly efimb over. At night the fence m ilium- | mated with electric lights, and there is a patrol of armed guards day and night. But you might be turned loose in the 4,000 acre field and not find a diamond m a year. The process of finding them | is very intricate, expensive and diffi- ' «dit. Many of the natives who work in the diamond mines have never seen n diamond; they see only the blue dirt, i

After the blue dirt has lain out in j tiie weather a year and been plowed up at intervals with steam plows that au portions of it may ha\e a chance at the ! tun, it is washed in enormous mills' and - reduced in the proportion of 1 to 4,000,- j •00—that ÛL for every pound of d'a- ,1

mends found 4,000,000 pounds of blue firt are mined, hoisted, exposed in the field a year and then run through the ! washing miBs. |

ÏÜ these washing mills the blue dirt is fest crushed between rollers and then run through shaking washing pans ; three different times. What is left is j then taken in oars to another mill call- ; ^ the pulsator, and here the precious mrt is again washed three times. Final- m the £amonds and the heavier peb- N68 remaining after six washings go in a stream of water over a shaking pan, 4M bottom of which is covered with Taseline. The diamonds stick to the vaseline for some reason yet unexplain- ed, while the pebbles roll away with the water. The ^amonds on the screen ere then easily eollected and sorted.

Welcome to Everybody.

In Bussia newspa^r correspondents have a hard time of it. Not long ago e nihilist oncsplracy was discovered, end the correspondent of the London Standard went to see the building.

^'Can I come inf’’ he asked the offi- •er in charge.

**Certainly,” said the officer. The correspondent entered and took

•fiions notes, but when he turned to go the c Heer barred the way.

”Anybody who likes may come in,” he explained, ”but he is immediately •rrested.”

In vain the prisoner j^ead4^ the offi- •Or had his orders.

The correspondent walked to the win- dow and saw the London Times man •a the street. *

*^Hello! ” he called out. “Here’s the aihilist ]^Aee. Come up. ’ ’

He came up, a«.d when he found him- •elf a prisoner he was furious.

Then the two correspondents spent Ihe afternoon inviting other newspaper fiee Into the spider’s web until there was quite a company of furious and oursing correspondents, and there they lemained until released the next mom- Nt-

A Drink and a Fight.

The Albanians used to practice a form of dueling well n^h as fatal as ihni advocated by Sir Charles Napier. ^ Bichard Barton, who once com- manded a corps of buhibazouks, writes fiiat “the Albanian contingent, who generally fight when they are drunk, had a peculiar style of monomachy. The principals, attended by their seconds and by all their friend^ stood close op- posite, each holding a cocked pistol in ms right hand and a glass of raki or spirits of wine in his left. The first to drain his draught had the right to fire, and generally bl&zed away wiüi fatal effect. It would have been useless to discourage this practice, but I insisted on fair play.’’—London Chronicle. :

Fanning by Cinema.

Teaching scientific farming by mov- Ing picture methods is likely to be the next step in the educational work the Ontario Department Of Agriculture is earrying on for the promotion of im- proved farming methods in the OTO- Vince,' The matter has not been taken up definitely yet, but officials of the de- partment are studying with interest the experiment now being made in that direction in the United States, and are eonsidering tts variow advantages in connection with the institute lectures carried on during the winter.

Bees and Tin Fans.

The practice of heating tin pans to eett’e bees, no doubt, grew out of an old English law, now almost foigotten, which required the beekeeper to give notice in this way that his bees were about to swarm and that he was en- titled to follow them and get them back. If after giving this warning, he failed to follow the swarm ^or if he lost sight of them and they alighted else: where the bees became the possession of the person on whose land they set- tled.—Farm and Home.

A Welsh Verdict.

^ Welsh juries were formerly accused of giving their verdict in accordance with their liking for the rival counsel rather tK'a. on the merits of the case. Sir Prai ..IS Palgrave tells of a Meri- oneth jury whose foreman, when asked for a verdict, replied: ^‘My lord, we do not know who is plaintiff or dexend- ant, but we find for whoever is Mr. Jones’ man.”
