Registrar LONDON, CANADA RAC MEET HOLIDAY MONDAI, AUGUST 5 United States to Buy 9,600,000 Acre* pf Woods Land. A epsnprehenaive program for th« purchase of forest lands Uy the Unit­ ed, States Federal Government; in­ volving the eventual acquistion of 9,G0fi,000 acres of land at an esti­ mated cost of ?40,00fi,000, has been approved by the National Forest Commission. The approved program contem­ plates the ultimate purchase by the Government of an additional 4,000,- 009 acres of land within the national forests hitherto established primarily for the protection of navigable streams and within which the Gov­ ernment has already acquired almost 3,000,000 acres. These units extend along the Ap­ palachian chain from the White Mountains of New Hampshire to the extreme southern Appalachians, in­ cluding also two forests in Arkansas, •A second feature is the purchase 'of 400,000 acres within the Tawas unit in the lower peninsula of Michi­ gan and of 700,000 acres within the Superior unit of northern Minnesota, where the Government now holds considerable areas reserved from the publia domain. A third feature is the proposed ac- .quisition of 2,000,000 acres in addi­ tional forests hereafter for protection of navigable streams and reduction of floods, while the fourth is the con­ templated purchase of 2,500,000 acres within new forests primarily to promote timber production through research, experimentation and de­ monstration whereby owners of pri­ vate lands may determine the means and methods for making their forest properties productive. The importance of acquiring for­ est land before private interests ob­ tain that which is most valuable, Is' emphasized by a situation In the Yosemite National Park. Here lum- ! ber companies had bought land be­ fore the park was planned and some of it was so situated that it was well within the park itself and also made the boundaries of the park undesir­ ably'irregular. Is the Most ReautRul Building In the World. Mahal js generally con- be the most beautiful the world. It was built Taj to The pldered building in by the Mogul Emperor Shah Jehan at Agra, near Delhi, India, as a tomb of his favorite wife. When the Mo­ guls came to India in the early part of the sixteenth century they brought their Persian civilization with them, and thus it was that the Hindu archi­ tects and artisans worked in the Per­ sian style. The erection of the Mahal took twenty years, and. is to have cost about ?50,000,000. monument is of white marble, feet Jong and wide, and nearly feet high to the 'top of the huge dome, which grandly lifts itself from the eight-sided building. This i9 flanked on either side by the two slender minarets, the whole fabrla standing on a platform of red sand­ stone overlooking the River Jumna, Inside are the cenotaphs of Shah Jelian and his empress. The sunlight filters into this chamber through marble screens in­ tricately wrought, and as delicate as lace. The interior walls are covered with the floral designs so loved bj the Persians, and here and there in­ scriptions from the Koran are ornate­ ly carved in Arabic characters. So white is the marble that what would be shadows on any other4 building are described as glowing and bright reflections of light and color on Taj Mahal. The real tombs of royal pair are side by side in vaulted chamber below. The Taj Mahal' is surrounded Persian gardens, and the whole pre­ sents one of the most interesting sights in India—especially under the brilliant Indian moonlight, when it resembles a fairy citadel, Taj said The 130 200 the the the by ONE TOAST DESERVED ANOTHER 2.15 2.20 .24 OPEN STAKE CLASS TROT SOMETHING NEW IN BOATS. $1,000.00 $1,000.00 $ 400.00 $ 400.00 $10,000.00 GRAND STAND features of of propelling by Herr gear« ordl- a re­ small Helmut —V New Staling, F^ee Straw and one of the best half-mile tracks ______■ in Western Ontario BETTING PRIVILEGES ALLOWED DR.

No oars—no motor—reverse —four times the speed of an nary rowing-boat. These are the markable method boats invented Sauer, a German. In place of oars there is a lever in the centre of the boat which is pulled backwards and forwards with no more exertion than is needed for oars. But with the same amount of energy the boat, it is claimed, is propelled nearly four times as quickly as when oars are used. This is achieved by a simple system of rotating a screw at the stern by means of a friction wheel and planet drive. There are other valuable features of the craft, including the fact that the “oarsman” sits facing the bow In­ stead of the stern, and he steers with his feet, thus dispensing with a steersman. Then, by pulling a small­ er lever, he can throw the boat into reverse, thus avoiding collisions. . “Catching a crab” is impossible, and the merest novice can drive and steer turn fort, time entirely^ oust oars from ships’ boats and lifeboats. Larger boats .could be built with any number of levers, and in speed they would rival that of motor­ boats, while needing no fuel and cost­ ing nothing to run. Finally, the ventor claims that working the de­ vice constitutes the finest aid physical perfection he knows! the boat with ease, while it will in its own length with little ef- The inventor believes that in his method of propulsion will Clever Story Is Told About Gen. von Loewenfeld. A clever story is told about Gen. von Loewenfeld, formerly the ex­ kaiser's aide-de-camp, who died re­ cently in Berlin in his 7 8th year. He was with the' 10th (Hanover­ ian) Army Corps during autumn ma­ noeuvres one year when he found himself quartered in the country house of a Guelph aristocrat. The Guelphs still maintain that the king­ dom of Hanover was stqjen in' 1866 by the Prussian Hohenzollerns, and they cherish the hope that it will one day be restored to the House of Cum­ berland. At dinner, therefore, the Guelph legitimist rose, "when the first glass of wine had been poured out, and said: “Gentlemen, it is the custom in my house that the first glass is raised to the health and welfare of his Majesty King Ernest August of Hanover.” This, in the eyes of the Prussian officers, was rank treason, and all nervously “turned to their general, wondering it he would drink the health of a king dethroned by his late majesty, William I. Von Loewenfeld, however, slowly rose to his feet, as did all his officers, and the health of the King of Han­ over was ceremoniously drunk, When the second glass was filled the Prus­ sian general again stood up and, look­ ing toward his host, said: “It is an old custom in my house to raise the second glass to the health of his Majesty the Emperor of China.” The Guelph aristocrat could not but stand up also; the officers, too, rose, and the glasses were emptied to he health of the Son of Heaven, HOME TELEVISION FAR OFF. in­ to TOBACCO. Aim •f 1 > It “w^ars in” Contains Methyl Alcohol, Says Berlin Professor. It’s not nicotine, but methyl alco­ hol, that causes all the trouble in Smoking, according to the researches of Prof. Neuberg In Seri to. Experiment revealed that the nico­ tine content of tobacco varied with­ out relation to the strength of the cigar as sensed by the smoker, and that, smoking continued to be harm­ ful in spite of denlcotinizing tobacco. Prof. Neuberg discovered that the veins of the tobacco leaf contain methyl alcohol, which fermentation weakens but does not altogether re­ move. The decrease is greater in cigars than in cigarettes. Burning does not destroy the methyl alcohol. Freed from the light­ ed cigarette, it unifies with the smoke and, inhaled, mixes with the saliva instead of being again exhaled with the smoke. Whether it is possible to remove the methyl alcohol from to­ bacco entirely is as yet undetermined. Limited In Scope for Some Time at Least, Says English Scientist. Television possibilities in the home were dealt with by Mr. T. Thorne Baker in a lecture at the headquar­ ters of the Royal Photographic Society, London, England. Speaking of recent experiments, he said: “These'"simple first transmissions, though doubtless disappointing to photographers accustomed to first- class definition, represent a real achevement. Nevertheless, I think that whgn we consider the technical problems 'invo'lved, the way they have been dealt with, and the early re­ sults, fre are forced to see with what reserve we must accept announce­ ments that amateurs will soon ba able to watch the opening of Parlia­ ment, or similar things, on their wire­ less set in the home.” To a Daily Mail reporter Mr. Bak­ er said: “No doubt the first thing the public will get Is a set which will give a crude image of head shoulders.” andNorge supremacyis due to its exclusive rotary construction which compensates for its own we; • •. rather than ^wears out.” 0 fair Convenient Purchase Plan Will Please You ORGE ieal Refrigeration ( i FOR SALE BY Man’s Heart No Pump. The accepted idea of the heart as an automatic pump sending blood to all parts of the body may have to ba revised. A famous German heart specialist, Dr. Mendelsoh,n, says the heart I* simply a governor to control the or­ derly flow of blood, this current itself being due to the constant Intake and outgo of liquid caused by chemical action in the body cells, reports Popular Science Monthly.

Paper From Pineapples. Caroa, a species of wild pineapple found in Brazil, may soon be used to provide pulp for making first-class paper. For centuries the natives of Brazil have (mt the long narrow leaves that protect the caroa fruit, and obtained fibre from them by beating the leaves between two stones. From this " make twine and ropes by rotting.” In the experiments the pulp obtained from this native rope, which was cut into short lengths, threshed, cooked in a solution of caustic soda, bleached, and beaten. The caroa fi­ bres are cylindrical and comparative­ ly long, but of small diameter, pro­ perties that enable them to mat to­ gether easily, giving coriipaCtness and strength to the shoot, Gum, oil, balsam, pitch, and acid are also obtained from this apple, Exeter, Ontario j || Public Utilities Commission Hot Se»ta foir Chu relies.
