Wingham, - Ont.
NE W FORESTERS' BATTALION.
Still another battalion has been
authorized to send out the call for re -
emits in this locality, and this is the
238th Forestry Battalion, which has just
recently organized under Lieut. Col. W.
R. Smyth, M. P., for Algoma, and which
will afford many men an opportunity to
do their bit even though they do not
fancy the infantry or the trenches.
Lieut. -Col, Smyth's Battalion is design-
ed primarily as a non-combatant force,
itis being gathered quickly and is in-
tended to be sent over to England with-
in a couple of months to reinforce the
224th Foresters who are now engaged
in cutting down the forests of England
to supply the men at the front with the
necessary material for building trenches
and other military works.
Seeing that no fighting will be ex-
pected of the members of the 238th the
ranks should fill up rapidly. At the
same time, the physical qualifications
of the members have been slightly re-
duced. For example, a man who may
have been turned down for ordinary
military service owing to the loss of a
finger or through defective eyesight,
should not be discouraged, for the
qualifications for the Foresters are such
that he will doubtless be able to catch
a place with them, if he hurries.
Special privileges in recruiting have
been given Col. Smyth from the De-
partment of Militia. his organization
covering all of Ontario and all the West-
ern provinces as far as the coast.
While no special number has been set
aside for Ontario to recruit, the most of
the recruiting depots have been scatter-
ed about through this province, and it
is anticipated from the number of
lumbermen, sawyers, and bushmen
known to be in this province, that
Ontario will supply fully 500 men.
While the battalion head quarters are
in Ottawa, the main recruiting depot
tor the province is at 55 Queen street
west, Toronto, where Lieut. H. S.
Price is in charge.

HOT WEATHER RULES
1. Load lightly, and drive slowly.
2. Stop in the shade if possible.
3. Water your horse as often as pos-
sible. So long as a horse is working,
water in small quantities will not hurt
him. But let him drink only a few
swallows if he is going to stand still -
Do not fail to water him at night after
he has eaten his hay.
4. When he comes in after work,
sponge off the harness marks and sweat,
his eyes, his nose and mouth, and the
dock. Wash his feet but not his legs.
5. If the thermometer is 75 degrees
or higher, wipe him all over with a
damp sponge, using vinegar waer if
possible. Do not wash the horse at
night.
6. Saturday night, give a bran mash,
lukewarm; and add a tablespoonful of
saltpetre.
7. Do not use a horse -hat, unless it is
a canopy -top hat. The ordinary bell-
shaped hat does more harm than good.
8. A sponge on top of the head, or
even a cloth, is good if kept wet. If
dry, it is worse than nothing.
9. If the horse is overcome by heat,
get him into the shade, remove the
harness and bridle, wash out his mouth,
sponge him all over, shower his legs,
and give him two ounces of aromatic
spirits of ammonia; or two ounces of
sweet spirits of nitre, in a pint of
water; or give him a pint of coffee
warm, Cool his head at once, using
cold water, or, if necessary, chopped
ice, wrapped in a cloth.
10. If the horse is off his feed, try
him with two quarts of oats mixed
with -bract, and a little"ivater; and add a
little salt or sugar. Or give him oat-
meal gruel or barley water to drink.
11. Watch your horse. If he stops
sweating suddenly, or if he breathes
short and quick, or if his ears droop, or
if he stands with his legs braced side-
ways, he is in danger of a heat or sun
stroke and needs attention at once.
12. If it is so hot that the horse
sweats in the stable at night, tie him
outside, with bedding under him. Un-
less be cools off during the night, he can-
not well stand the next day's heat.
The following summary of liquor
cases laid by Inspector Mitchell, of
North Huron, and disposed of at Gode-
rich during the last few days goes to
show that the Canadian Temperance
Act is being strictly enforced in Huron
County.
Cooper Robinson was fined $50 and
costs for bringing liquor into Goderich
from McGaw station for other than his
personal use, Andrew Young was fined
$50 and costs for giving liquor away,
which is a violation of this act.
C. Swartz, of the British Exchange
Hotel, appeared before Judge Holt and
was fined $25 and costs for an assault
on County Constable Pellow while
searching Swartz premises. The judge
warned Swartz that the court would
protect their constables and if the act
was repeated the penalty would be made
very severe for the one who committed
the assault.
Alex. McLellan, of the Commercial
Hotel, Seaforth, was convicted on a
second charge as a result of a recent
raid made by County Constable Pellow,
of Goderich, Police Magistrate Holm -
stead reported the conviction, but
stated that he would not state the
penalty for one month.
A batch of drunks, which had ac-
cumulated during the last six weeks
pending the decision of the court as to
whether Section 141 of the Ontario
Liquor License Act applied in C. T. A.
counties, were disposed of. Three
men were fined $20 and costs each for
being drunk in a public place, and one
was fined $40 and costs, it being his
second offence.

FOR FLETCHER'S
CASTOR!A
John Hunter, of Clinton, died sudden-
ly Wednesday morning at his home, of
hemmorage of the stomach. He took
his supper with his family Tuesday
night and was thought to be getting
nicely over his illness which had con-
fined him to his home for a few days.
He was in his 66th year and is survived
by his wife, who was formerly Miss C.
Grant, also one young son and a sister,
Miss Hunter. He was one of the oldest
residents, having been born in Tuckers
smith Township, where, until moving to
Clinton a few years ago, he spent most
of his life,

Have you plenty of seed corn o
where It Is safe and ready for o
the 1010 planting? If so you o
way consider yourself rather for- o
tunate, as there is likely to be a o
serious shortage of first class o
seed corn at planting time. Any o
amount of corn failed to mature o
and ripen properly last fall. 0
Where this was true it will be o
well to look around for seed corn o
from the 1014 crop, 'There is o
probably plenty of this if it can o
be located, but it should not be o

money by selecting, testing and o
offering it on the seed corn mar- o
ket this spring. -Farm Progress. o

T1-118 YEAR'S SEED CORN.
EARLY CABBAGE VARIETIES
Great Care Should Be Exercised in
the Purchase of Seeds.
Jersey Wakefield has been the
leader among early cabbages for
more than fifty years, writes R. L.
Watts in the Country Gentleman,
All the early gardeners praised it,
and most of our gardeners tosday
claim it is superior to all other early
varieties. It is very early, medium
in size, pointed, and solid. The heads
are valuable for salad purposes.
Charleston Wakefield attains mar-
ketable size from a few days to a
week later than Jersey Wakefield. It
is larger in size and requires slightly
more space in the row. If the market
does not demand extreme earliness,
the Charleston type will be found
more profitable than the Jersey
Wakefield, especially if the crop is
sold by the crate or barrel.
Copenhagen Market is a compara-
tively now variety that is attracting
much attention among commercial
growers. It comes a few days later
than Jersey Wakefield, but it poss-
esses merits that, in the minds of
some gardeners, more than overbal-
ance this disadvantage. The heads
average at least a third larger than
Jersey Wakefield. The spread of the
outside leaves is less, so that closer
planting may be practiced. The
heads are roundish instead of point-
ed, and they are very solid when
properly matured. They also carry
better in transportation than the
Wakefield types.
A strong point in favor of Copen-
hagen Market is its uniformity in
time of heading, which permits the
ground to be cleared of the cabbage
early in the season and another crop
started. A very successful trucker
in western Pennsylvania, who grows
about 20,00u early cabbages annual-
ly, now plants no other variety.
Early Summer is a well known va-
riety. It ripens with Charleston
Wakefield or perhaps a few days
later. The heads are fiat and fairly
solid.
Succession, a midsummer variety,
is regarded by many as the best bred
cabbage in America. It usually runs
remarkably uniform in type. The
heads are large and solid at maturity.
Seed sown the 1st of February should
produce ripe cabbage in any part of
the north before the 1st of August.
Whatever the variety selected, the
utmost care should be exercised in
buying seed, for there is marked va-
riation in the strains of different va-
rieties.
Denmark is compelled to import hoops
of barrels.
Abyssinia is increasing cattle pro
duction.
The increased cost of blasting pow-
der, due to the war, is becoming a
problem in the mining industry.
Every grave at the fiont is marked
by a simple cross, with name, regi-
ment and date of burial recorded.
Accurate surveys are kept of every
burial ground.
Of Swiss invention is a storage bat-
tery electric switching locomotive in
which powerful electro magnets are
used instead of couplings for drawing
cars.
Data accompanying a recently pub-
lished official map of North Dakota
shows that the State has $64,000,000
set apart in land as a public school
endowment.
There are 38,000 auto licenses in
Ontario, and many purchasers are
unable to secure licenses at the pres-
ent time as the'first supply made has
run out. It does not look like hard
times in Ontario.
The Minister of Finance announces a
further credit by Canadian banks of
$25,000,000 for the purchase of war
munitions by the Imperial Munitions
Board.
Thomas Kelly, contractor for the
Manitoba Parliament Buildings, was
found guillty of theft of money, property,
etc., to the value of about $1,250,000,
of receiving property knowing it to be
obtained by false pretences, and of
obtaining by false pretences. Sentence
was reserved.
Root Storage Pit.
Where there are no cellars or stor-
age rooms available the old fashion-
ed pit makes a good place in which
to store roots and some kinds of
vegetables for the winter. Put in a
well drained place, dig a couple of
trenches, crossing each other in the
center of the pit, cover these with
boards, leaving an open space in the
centre. Put in a ventilator, cover
the bottom of the pit with straw and
pile up the vegetables. Then place
the straw over the roots, then dirt,
then more straw if in a cold region,
more dirt, and your pit will keep the
most severe weather from injuring
the vegetables.

POTASH IN PLANTS.
F I : I i -I•: :-
Marsh grass, marsh sedge, seaweed
and pine straw are among the ma-
terials in which potash in small agri-
cultural quantities has been found.
The chemist of the South Carolina
experiment station reports after an-
alyses of these plants:
Four samples of marsh grass con-
taining respectively 0.84 per cent.,
2.39 per cent., 1.16 per cent., and
1.99 per cent. potash.
A sample of dead marsh sedge
contained 0.03 per cent. potash.
Two samples of marsh sedge ashes
contained respectively 0.18 per cent.
and 1.38 per cent. potash.
A sample of seaweed contained
5.85 per cent. potash.
A sample of long leaf pine straw
contained 0.41 per cent. potash.
Marsh grass also contains a con-
siderable quantity of nitrogen and a
small quantity of phosphorus.
All such materials should be gath-
ered green because the potash rapidly
leaches out of the dead material.
This fact proves its value when ap-
plied to land, for it is water solubtei
potash.

The Gold Dust Twins',
Philosophy
•
THE floors and doors appear to wait until the dust germs con=
gregate; the housewife hails each dawning day with grim and
harrowing dismay. Says she: "My work will NEVER end;
o'er dusty stretches I must bend, until, with aching back and hands
I finish what the day demands."
Then Mrs. Jones, one afternoon, drop -
The ped in, at time most opportune. An
"Floor -and -Door -a" optimist, she knew the wiles of house,
work and
Gthirel endless doors, until when Hubby saw them, too,
hold work -its sighs and smiles. She
told of how she polished floors and wood -
reflections said: "Why, howdy -do!"
"The Gold Dust Twins," said she, "I find, help leave the woes
of dust behind. Each mark of sticky hands on doors, each tread of
muddy feet on floors, all fade before
the slightest touch of Gold Dust, and
=.,/�- the work is such that, when the
P
; �, woodwork has been done, I find
� I i • "' ' --k said work was only fun." This
'� F r=----- line of reasoning must show that
those who've tried it OUGHT to
know. ''If you, in one day's duties,
find that there's a Grouch in ev'ry
-s. ' viiia. "! :..,, Grind, invite the Gold Dust Twins
I'�' to share such tasks as tire and
fret and wear.
From kitchen floor to bedroom suite, these tireless little chaps make
neat, and best of all, the sum expense is measured up in meager cents.
They put both dust and dirt to rout and run the last old microbe out.
