REPORTS ON WINTER GRAINS
Experiments have been conducted at
the Ontario Agricultural College and
throughout Ontario the past year with
Winter Wheat, Winter Rye Winter Bar-
ley, Winter Emmer and Hairy Vetches.
The autumn of 1915 and the spring of
1916 were very wet, and the month of
July was dry and hot.
About two hundred and ninety varie-
ties of winter wheat and a large number
of selections and crosses have been test-
ed at the College within the past twenty-
seven years. Of the named varieties
fourteen have been grown in each of
twenty-one years, and the these results
are of special value. The following
gives the average for twenty-one years
in yield of both grain and straw per
• acre and in weight per measured bushel
of a few of the Ieading varieties:
Dawsons's Golden Chaff 51.3 bushels,
2.8 tons, and 60.1 lbs; Imperial Amber
47.9 bushels, 3.2 tons, and 61.2 lbs.;
Early Genesee Giant, 46.8 bushels, 30
tons, and 611.2 lbs; Early Red Clawson
46.6 bushels, 2.8 tons, and 59.2 lbs.; and
Egyptian Amber 46.4 bushels, 3.2 tons
and 61 7 lbs.
The average results of the fourteen
varieties are as follows: yield of grain
per acre, 40.9 bushels for 1916, and
45.1 bushels for the twenty-one year
period; yield of straw per acre, 2.9
tons for 1916 and also for the average
of the twenty-one year period; and
weight per measured bushel 63.2 lbs.
for 1916 and 61.1 lbs. for the whole
period. It will be seen that in 1916 the
winter wheat gave an average of
practically four bushels per acre below
and two pounds per measured bushel
above the average of the past twenty-
one years.
In treating winter wheat for smut
the best results were obtained by im-
mersing the grain for twenty minutes
in a solution made by adding one pint
of formalin to forty-two gallons of
water. This treatment is simple,
ebeap and effectual. Other experi-
ments show the great importance of
using large, plump, sound, well -
matured seed of strong vitality. -C.
A. Zavitz.
If a married man doesn't grumble at
home it's usually because he isn't there.
By a tie vote the Owen Sound Town
Council turned down the proposal to
put the Police Department under a
commission. The main argument used
against the change was that the Council
will at an early date apply for a city
charter, when a commission will auto-
matically go into effect. '

impaled on the pickets and so lost its
life.
Mr. Lawrence Tracey was down town
for the first time on Thursday since he
met with the painful accident by which
he lost several fingers.
On Friday morning last Mr. George
Good received a message from Toronto,
announcing the death of his brother,
Jas. Good. wholesale merchant on
Yonge St
On Wednesday, Henry Kerr attended
the birthday party of his father-in-law,
Mr. Cluff, of the township of Hullett'
who has attained the ripe old age of
90 years.
A very pretty wedding took place at
the residence of Mrs. Lindsay, Shuter
St„ on Wednesday of this week, when
her daughter, Miss Lorne, was united
in marriage to Robert S. Reid, a
promising young farmer of East
Wawanosh.
`A. Knox, of Wingham, was in Clinton
yesterday. He recently returned from
a visit to Ireland, and was a passenger
on one of the boats in the collision on
the St. Lawrence. He is emphatic in
declaring that many in the old land do
not know they are living and that
Canada is the greatest and most pros-
perous country under the sun.
We regret to be called upon this
week, to cronicle the sudden death of
Jas. Purdue, of East Wawanosh, which
took place on Tuesday. Deceased who
has suffered considerably from heart
failure, was working in a field when a
team of horses driven by his son ran
away. Tbe undue excitement caused
heart failure. His son seeing him fall
hastened to him but he was dead before
he reached him. He was father of Dr.
Purdue, V. S., Blyth.
Mr. John Hardy, of Culross, was
agreeably surprised a few days ago by
receiving a visit from his brother, Mr.
James Goodfellow, of New Haven,
Connecticut, whom he had not seen
since they parted in Scotland over
forty years ago. After spending a
short but pleasant time here together,
the brothers have gone to visit their
brother, Mr. T. Goodfellow, of Cold.
water, and friends in Barrie and
vicinity.
On Wednesday, John Lamont, who
lived with his son, M. B.
Lamont, Patrick St., passed away at
the ripe age of 84 years and 3 months.
Mr. Lamont was a native of Inverness-
shire, Scotland, and carne to Cape
Breton when 18 years of age, where be
lived for twenty-five years. In 1855 he
came west to Huron County and settled
on Lot 24, Concession B., in the town-
ship of Turnberry, living on that farm
until two years ago when his son, M.
B. sold the old homestead and moved
into Wingham.
We are sorry to bane to report the
death of a young lady who lived on the
12th of East Wawanosh, some time ago,
in the person of Miss Evangeline
Cunningbam, who passed away very
suddenly last Wednesday, She was
just in her youth and always very
healthy till a short tithe before her
death.

MANGLING A WORD.
Why "Comptroller" Is Used instead o1
the Correct "Controller'."
It is an old story, many times told.
that the scriveners centuries ago, igna
rant cif Latin, but having heard that is
French "mantes" means to count and
assuming that as the controller has to
do with money he must of course,
count money, wedged the false and
perverting letter "p" with an "m" be-
fore it into a, perfectly good and cor-
rectly formed word.
In late Latin the word is "contraro-
tulater." The keeper of the king's rolls,
the payroll and other accounts, was the
"rotulatot." To guard against the pos-
sible dishonesty of that ofciel the
king appointed an auditor to check up
his accounts and called him the "eoe-
trarotulator"-that is, the counter roll
keeper. From "contrarotulator" the
word has come into modern languages,
always without the oXending "p."
In French, Spanish, Italian, German
and Russian we hive the word "con-
trol," meaning the keeping or auditing
of accounts, and the title of the officer
in those languages is spelled always
without the 'nu" and the "p." When
our commissioners to the Paris peace
e"onferenee in 1898 used the word "con -
trial," meaning political control of the
Philippines, the Spanish commissioners
were puzzled; they thought our repre-
sentatives were speaking of matters of
finance.
' But the word "comptroller," with its
vicious spelling and implication of a
false etymology, is imbedded in the
federal statutes and in the constitution
of the state of New York. A11 the
king's oxen Gould not pull it out against
the Boeotian indifference and Inertia of
those who, if they would, might cot%
rest the blunder.
An Old Alarm Clock, '
At Schramberg, in the Black forest,
there is a respectable alarm clock that
warned sleepers it was time to get up
when Charles L was king of England.
This was made in 1680, and it is deem-
ed a remarkable piece of workman-
ship. In form it resembles a Iantern
wherein is a lighted candle, the wick
of which is automatically clipped eV-
ery minute by a pair of scissors. The
candle is slowly pushed upward by a
spring, which also controls the mech-
anism of the clock, and at the required
hour of waking an alarm is sounded,
and at the same time the movable
sides of the lantern fall, and the room
is & oded with light.
Boxing the Compass.
To box the compass means to name
all the points in order just as fast as
you can speak. This is the 'way an
old down east skipper will rattle it off:
North, nor' by east, nor'-nor'east, nor' -
east by north, nor'east, nor'east by

Wheat Is Very Ancient.
The growing of wheat has so long
been a principal occupation with man
that its geographical origin is un-
known. The Bgyptians claim it origi-
nated with Isis, white the Chinese
claim to have received the seed dintet
as a gift from heaven. The belief that
it originated in the valleys of the 7tu-
phrates and the Tigris is more general-
ly accepted than any other. Tbe most
ancient languages mention wheat, and
it has been found by the archaeolo-
gists in the kitchens of the prehistetdae
inhabitants of the Swiss lake region.
It is generally agreed that at the low-
est
owest estimate wheat has been a faithful
servant of mankind for 6,000 rear*.

SOCIAL LION$
A Bit of History Showing How this
Term Came into Uss.
When you refer to a popular man In
so'.lety as a "social lion" did you know'
that you are drawing on a bit of "very
remote history for the expression? The
lion is anything but a social beast, and
the figurative use of his name to desig-
nate a popular person came down. to us
in a most curious and roundabout way.
When Henry III. came to the throne
of England, in 1216, there was a curi-
ous dispute as to the significance of
the figures entering into the armorial
bearings of Great Britain. There were
three animals, "passant gardant," and
they were spoken of as leopards. As a
matter of fact, they were supposed to
be lions. It was argued that there had
been three leopards in the Tower of
London in the reign of William the
Conqueror and that these had given
the motif for the emblem. Or it might
have been that the Norman oppressor
kept three leopards as a concession to
the Saxons be had subjugated.
Whatever the facts may be, Henry
was satisfied that the conventionalized
animals on seals, banners and coins
were really Lions, and in order to on,
press tae fact be had three live and
unmistakable "monarchs of the desert"
brought to London and placed in the
Tower. It at once became the fashion
to visit the lions. When guests from
out of the city were being entertained
the great treat was that of a visit to
the "lions of the Tower." After the
sight had become commonplace and
the meaning of the animals had been
lost to sight the phrase remained. The
"lion" was a statesman, actor or some
other celebrity who held popular favor.
FOOLS THE COWS.
Dead Nettle Is Harmless, but Makes It-
self Look Dangerous.
Iu this case the joke's on the cow.
She's fooled into the belief that this
little, harmless plant will bite her. The
plant helps with the joke by mas-
querading as a dangerous weed, with
real teeth, whereas it wouldn't hurt a
Bea. This plant is the dead nettle.
One of its cousins, the stinging nets
tie, covers itself with sharp, poisonous
hairs. The cow has learned to avoid
the weed. So the dead nettle makes up
to look like its cousin, and the cow
leaves it alone.
The dead nettle grows in waste
places all over eastern united States.
It isn't as useful as its near relative in
the East Indies and in China, called
ramie. This relative also is harmless
and plays similar jokes on Chinese
cows and other grazing animals.
But ramie furnishes a vegetable
fiber which is stronger than hemp, as
fine and shiny as silk. It is used in.
making cordage and nets, and paper
made from it is used for banknotes.
So when the ramie imitates the sting-
ing nettle It is protecting itself front
grazing animals so it may grow into
money.
Weighing the Mayor.
A mayor. particularly an English
mayor, is traditionally a man of weight
and substance, but there is only one
municipality that insists that his hon-
or get on the public scales and prove
it. Of the thousands of quaint and
curious customs still surviving in
England this is perbaps one of the
most odd. The mayor of High Wy-
combe has to be weighed on Nov. 9 of
each year, inauguration day, and this
custom bas been observed for about
six centuries. The mayor elect walks
at the head of a procession consisting
of the councilors. the beadle and tbe
mace bearer. He is clad in cocked hat,
silk stockings, blue coat and knee
breeches. Upon reaching the town hall
the mayor is placed upon the scales by
the head constable, and a record of his
avoirdupois is solemnly made in a book
kept for this purpose.
DIARRHOEA
Was Caused By
Change of Diet, Etc
e
Diarrhoea arises from many causes
such as, change of diet, change of water,
change of climate, catching cold, the
eating of unripe fruits, or anything that
will cause or induce an extcss of bile.
On the first sign of any looseness of the
bowels it should not be neglected, but
should be looked after immediately, for
if not diarrhoea, dysentery or some other
serious bowel complaint may ensue.
Mr. Geo. Solidi, Victoria, B.C., writes:
"It is five years ago since I Brat tried
Dr. Pottier's Extract of Wild Strawberry.
I was then on,a timber survey, and **S-

SLEEP
Curious and 'remarkable are the rea-
sons assigned for the desire to sleep.
It is attributed by some scientists to
an accumulation in the system of the
poisonous products of the wear and
tear of the body during the day. Sleep
is the period when the nerve cells of
the brain dwell apart from each other,
ea it were. The brain is composed of
millions of tiny bodies, Galled cells, each
having several delicate branches, for
the purpose of communicating with
other cells. When the brain is fully
active, all these cells are in
contact, or ready to be in contact,
with one another, but the time
occasionally comes, it is thought, when
the branches of all the cells curl up,
and their isolation means that complete
communication between the cells ceases.
The state of body and mind that follows
is what we call sleep. The most prob-
able explanation of sleep, however, is
that in some way or other the internal
condition of the cells is changed partly
from exhaustion and partly because of
diminished stimulation from other parts
of the body.
It may be better to be happy than to
be rich, but very few people ever deriv-
ed any satisfaction from that belief,
Do you earn a living you don't get -or
do you get a living you don't earn?
