To be possessed of a head of heavy,
beautiful hair; soft, lustrous, fluffy,
wavy and free from dandruff is mere-
ly a matter of using a little Danderine.
It is easy and inexpensive to have

be soft, glossy and beautiful in just a

SUNLIGHT TO ORDER.
Experiments With Electricity Being
Made in Great Britain.
By degrees man is becoming master
of the seasons. Light and electricity
are being pressed into his service, and
he can already force of plant -growth
so rapidly that he can beat the ordin-
ary process of Nature by many weeks.
One method is to treat seed, before
planting it, with small doses of high
tension electricity, In 1910 e trial was
made .of the method near l3uxnham-
on.Crouch, in Essex. Spring wheat is
usually sown in March or April. On
this occasion, the wheat, of which the
the seed had been treated by this
special process, was not sown until
July 10th. It was up in five days, and
on September 16th was in ear. It was
reaped twelve weeks front the time it
was sown, whereas the ordinary time
for wheat to mature in Eligland is
eighteen weeks,
Another method cif forcing crops is
to run a current of electricity through
overhead wires. In this way the
yield of oats and beans has been near-
ly doubled. Experiments tried last
year in Lineluden Mains Ferns, in
Dumfriesshire, were particularly sus.
cessfuI. A third method is to use
artificial light, either electric or, bet-
ter still, acetylene. Plants are thug
made to grow by night as well by
day. Cabbages and lettuce are easily
forced in this way, but other plants,
such as carrots, seem to resent it.
Flowers bloom earlier under arti-
clal light, and are more brilliant.
TO PERPETUATE FOREST GROP,I
COnaervatTVe Estimates Mado For
Forests of British Columbia.
To maiutain the forest capital intact
the annual cut must not exceed the
annual growth. In British Columbia
it is very muds less than'the amount i
which could be cut without endanger-
ing the productive capacity of the
forest, British Columbia includes so
large an area and contains so ninny
different site classes that it is difficult
to make anything more than a rough I
estimate of its growth. Moreover, the
probable loss from fires must bo con-
sidered. Again, where natural regen-
eration is depended upon for refores-
tation, all degrees of restocking ocean';
fully restocked areas are the exception
rathor than the rule. Also, a certain
percentage of tho are forested with
merchantable stand contains mature
and overmature timber where the de-
cay approximately offsets the lucre,-
Mont.
ncre,mont.
Selected areas on the coast that
were fully restocked have been found
to produce an annual increment of
1,000 board feet per acre in forty years
growth. Obviously, this figure is nueb ,.
too high for a general average, even 1
for the coast where the rate is ex ,
ceedingly high asecompared with tho
interior. Taking the foregoing fac-
tors into consideration, it has been
assumed that the average annual in-
crement might bo estimated at 100
board feet per acre, over approximate-
ly 50,000,000 acres of comparatively
accessible timber -]and, under reason-
ably effective protection from fire.
This assumption will give 5,000,000,000
board feet as the total aveeage an-
nual increment for British Columbia,
and consequently, this amount could
be cut annually without endangering
the present forest capital. This is ap-
proximately five times the actual cut.
The results cI the investigations un-
dertaken by the Commission of .. Con-
servation show that there is 95,580,000
acres capable of producing merchant-
able timber, but a large part of this
area is commercially inaccessible at
the present time. With the develop-
ment of transportation lines, large
areas, especially in the interior, will
become more accessible. On the
whole, therefore, the estimate of 5,000,-
000,000 feet is considered conservative.

Admiral Jellicoe's, Book Reveals Bri-
tish Unpreparedness in 1914.
A. book written by Admiral Viscount
.Teilicoe, the fernier commander of the
British Grand Fleet, and just publish-
ed, gives the cause of the sinking of
the British cruiser Hampshire, on
which Lord Kitchener lost his life.
Admiral Jellicoe explains that the.
Hampshire struck a German moored
mine, which had been laid by sub-
marine. .
The book contains revelations of
British, unpreparedness at the begin-
ning of the war. The Grand Fleet had
to run out Of harbor several times
because submarines were reported in-
side.
Admiral Jellicoe says Ite avoided
night action with his big ships off Jut
land because the British searchlights
and fire controls were defective. He
recommends a greater superiority of
all classes of vessels than in 1914.
