AUG, 1.4 '13 Who would have reciprocity now with Winnipeg wheat prices fifteen cent. higher than Minneapolis, ac- cording to latest market figures. Lord Strathcona last week rele- bratecl his Ord birthday. He is in ex- 'ceilent health and able to attend to biz duties as high commissioner for Canada every day, It is wonderful the concern Felt by Liberal newspapers for the'tealtb of Premier Borden. On the best ;tf .authority it is stated that he is in the best of health. The Borden Government is build- ing interior terminal elevators. This business of keeping promises while elections are a long way off is en- ough to deprive the Government of the respect of their predecessors The navy will cost `he British people thiss year $:230,000,000. There is nothing mythical about such an emergency and yet Canada, thanks to the partisan senate, does nothing to relieve either the British taxpayer or to help the Empire. The defeat of reciprocity is bring- ing millions of United. States _apital to Canada for the employment o1 Canadian workmen And to think that the Laurier Government went to the country on a policy of keeping this money out of Canada.

Man OPEN your eyes to the fact that there is a better way to grow winter wheat. This way is one which, by tactual scientific field tests made throughout Canada, has proven that it will produce the largest amount of the best wheat to the acre. The splendid restults achieved through this method depend mostly upon the start you snake. The vitally important part of the work Is done at seeding time, so start NOW to learn all about this method, Our Scientific Bureau will tell you about it, free. Progressive farmers will apply at seeding time a fertilizer containing 2% Nitrogen, 8% Phosphoric Acid and 8% POTASH -better still a 2-8-10. Such a fertilizer insures a good stand before the commence- ment of winter -gives the crop a greater degree of protection from the frosts -promotes a rapid and early growth in the spring, and produces a bountiful crop of high grade wheat: But perhaps your dealer cannot furnish you with a 10% POTASH fertilizer. lzer. If he cannot, don't take a substitutes because a substtute�j.. low grade fertilizer will NOT produce the results you want, The thins to do is to get more POTASH and add to the fertilizer your dealer Can give you to increase it to a 10% POTASH fertilizer. We f will tell you, free, just how to do this. It is simple, easy, and pays for itself many times over.. FREE Or you can mix your fertilizer at home, if you wish,/ Scientific Bureau will tell you all about it. i NATION Decide now to raise the biggest and best -paying wheat f' COUPON crop you ever had.

In his book "Tbe Balkan War" Mr Philip Gibbs, the war correspondent. says that the official regulations for war correspondents who were, sent out to the Balkans were appallingly severe Mr: Gibbs found that he was forbid. den to describe the disposition of troops, to give the navies bf generals, the names and numbers of the wound ed, the success or failure of Rillgarten troops, the state of the soldiers' health, the conditions of the -climate, and so on. When the censor bad told, him: all this Mr. Gibbs asked him politely:. "Will you tell me, sir, if there is any- thing about which we shall be allowed to write?" Tbe censor thought deeply for a mo rent and then answered quite gravely: "There is much interest in Bulgarian literature."

Nowadays there do not appear to be any human rat catchers on the estab- lishment of the civil service, but some 4overnment offices maintain cats for this work. At the general postoftice. for example, there is a staff of cats. charged with the duty of protecting his majesty's mails from rats. In re- turn they are provided. out of the pub- lic purse, with free board and lodging The staff of the Deptford victualing yard includes cats. in France cats are specially trained for government employment To fit them for service among military stores they are at first sent for one or two voyages ona war- ship. if tbey prove equal to killing the rats always found in the holds of large ships they are promoted to a ;bore billet -London Standard.

The drop of the druggist is called a "min- im," of which 480 go to make a fluid ounce and 76,800 to make a gallon. An actual experiment In filling a one ounce measure will probably show that 400 drops makes a fluid ounce. The average drop is 20 per cent larger than the minim, Pompey's Example.
