ROLL OF HONOR
Several thousand officers and employees of the Canadian Paeifie
Railway Company enlisted for active military duty with the Canadian
Expeditionary Forces, and the majority of them are now in Europe,
bravely battling for Canada and the Empire.
As particulars of Army Reservists are not available, these lists of
those who have given up their lives for their country or been wounded
in action are necessarily incomplete, and do not therefore imitate
fully the extent to which the Company's officers and employees h'ame
participated in the great struggle.

TEST SEED COPN.
I11
Necessary to Determine Viability of
Seed Before Planting Season.
Testing seed corn for germination,
always a profitable farm practice, is
an absolute necessity this year in
many sections. In a number of dis-
tricts the last corn crop from which
seed for the coming planting will be
taken was lata: in maturing or so
moist when harvested as to call for
special precautions. A high mois-
ture content makes seed corn parti-
cularly susceptible to damage from
freezing or beating. Farmers in the
sections where corn failed to ripen
normally who do not test their seed
early enough to be able to replace
their own bad seed with good seed
secured from other sources. will be
taking an unnecessary risk. It is
also especially important for holders
SPROUTED SEED coxa.
of seed in such districts to take un-
usual care during the remainder of
the winter to protect it from freez-
ing.
While complete testing for germin-
ation should take place shortly be-
fore the seed is planted, the special-
ists of the department believe that it
wilt be : ;mete forehandedness for
farmers who have any reason to be
doubtful about the viability of their
seed to make a preliminary germin-
ating test with a few typical ears
taken at random from the rack. If
these preliminary tests show that the
seed is good th) owner then can con-,
tinue bis precautions to guard it
from weather damage. If, however,
this test with a few ears indicates
that the seed is of ;ow vitality the
farmer should at once make further
tests to satisfy himself as to whet
ther his seed corn generally is good
or bad.
If a farmer finds his seed is bad he
should take steps at once to meet the
difficulty. The purchase of seed
should not be delayed till spring,
especially when so much corn in var-
ious sections has been damaged. The
farmer should secure his seed from
well known sources, buy it upon a
germinating guaranty basis and get
his seed or typical samples early
enough to make his own germinating
tests. It is probable this year that
many farmers who have not followed
,the wise practice of selecting enough
special seed from good crops to last
them in an emergency for two or
three years will have to buy seed. Ix
buying seed farmers should try to sea
cure corn of varieties known to pros-
per in their section. The safest seed
would be that carefully selected from
good corn grown in the immediate
neighborhood, but at any rate effort
,should be made to obtain seed grown
in districts where climate, soil, and
farming conditions in general are
similar to those at home.
If the farmer happens to have a
stock of seed left over from the 1914
crop and doubts the seed saved frond
his 1915 crop he would do well to
test the older seed also and then use
whichever shows the greater vitality
Seed corn if properly cared for will
retain its vitality for several years.
Many farmers, knowing this, always
select an extra amount of seed front
an unusually good harvest.

WINTER CARE OF LAWNS.

In order to keep our lawns beau-
tiful they must have constant care.
Too often the lawn is cared for only
during the growing season, when in
reality it should be cared for during
the whole year.
Whenever the lawn needs fertiliz-
ing put on very fine, well rotted man-
ure soon after the ground becomes
frozen in the fall. Let it lie on the
lawn all winter and rake it off in the
spring as soon as active growth takes
place. lie sure and use well rotted
manure, because fresh manure is apt
to heat and kill the grass roots.
During an open winter the grass IN
subject to a drying out process,
which tends to kill the roots. This
can be helped by sprinkling the Lawn
several times during the winter.
Weeds, dandelions, etc., infest the
lawn wherever the grass has become
thin. These thin places can be reme-
died a great deal by sowing grass
seed very early in the spring and rak-
lag it in well. Toung grass will start
growing very early and in this way
It win get ahead of the 'weeds.

The Gold Dust Twins',
Philosophy 41
THE floors and doors appear to wait until the dust germs con
gregate; the housewife hails each dawning day with grin and
harrowing dismay. Says she : "My work will NEVER end;
o'er dusty stretches 1 must bend, until, with aching back and hands
I finish what the day demands."
The
"floor -and -Door -a"
Girl
Then Mrs. Jones, one afternoon, drop-
ped in, at time most opportune. An
optimist, she knew the wiles of house-
hold work --its sighs and smiles. She
told of how she polished floors and wood-
work and the endless doors, until when Hubby saw them, too,
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
woodwork has been done, I find
said work was only fun." This
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
Grind, invite the Gold Dust Twins
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.
