PUT NEW LIFE INTO FALL FAIRS.
(Farmers' Advocate)
Most of the fall fairs in Ontario have
been held for another season, and the
big day in many a country town is again
over for the year. There are upwards of
three hundred local fairs held annually
in this province, and the attendance
this year has been reported as fairly
good. If it averaged a little over 3,000
people it. would mean that more than
1,000,000 persons, largely from the
farms of Ontario, attended these shows.
We believe that the estimate is not too
high, for we know many fairs that have
agreat deal larger attendance than3,000,
some running as high as eig".t and ten
thousand people. We have heard the
question, and in fact it has been discuss-
ed in the columns of farm papers, as to
whether or not the county fair as at
present constituted was worth while.
When we come to think of the fact that
in Ontario alone 1,000,000 people get a
day off.to see the show, and that the
majority of these are farmers with
their wives and children, we would not
care to see the county fair go out, for
the farmer and his family certainly do
not get too many holidays at present.
But the country fair should be a great
deal more than a holiday. It should
have an effect on the agriculture of the
district round about year after year,
otherwise it isn't doing the good which
it might do. Too many of these fairs
have become stereotyped, and nothing
new, interesting, and more educative is
planned year after year. The same old
grain comes out in some cases; the
same exhibitors show fruit, vegetables
and field roots; the same breeders bring
a few of their best stock; or, to make a
show, some are encouraged to bring a
few animals out of the field. The same
old fakirs ply the same old trade, and
four or five rather questionable siae-
shows very often get the hard-earned
dimes which are none too plentiful with
the farmers' boys and girls. We be-
lieve that an improvement could be
made if a tittle new blood was injected
into some of the Fair Boards. It is all
very well to brag about the directors
being men of experience, having bad
twentsefive or thirty years on the
Board, but in some cases, no doubt, it
would be an improvement to put on a
bright young farmer who had ideas and
was ready to no a little more work
than wearing a nice smile and a pretty
piece of ribbon on Fair Day.
VITALITY OF BED BUGS.
In an experiment carried out at Ne-
braska Experiment Station to deter-
mine the vitality of bed bugs, thirty-one
specimens obtained in a lodging•house
on January 21 were placed in tubes in a
box and kept under shelter in the open
air from January 21 until April 10. At
this time only 11 of the 31 were alive
and vigorous. The survivors were
again placed in tubes in a tin box,
packed in cotton, and stored in a refrig-
erator, whose temperature was main-
tained constantly between 40 and 50
degrees. They were unpacked July I,
were alive, and to all appearances as
vigorous as when placed in cold storage.
A number of extremly tiny bedbugs just
hatched from the egg were kept for
nearly three months in cold storage
without food. All survived. Eggs
kept under the same condition hatched
promptly when the temperature was
raised.

DECLINE SUBSTITUTES
THE TRUTH ABOUT BEER
To the Editor: -
Dr. Alfred Plehn, a world famous
professor of hygiene, says: "the man
who drinks ate or beer or stout, drinks
it because he likes its narcotic and
stupifying effects, If he thinks he gets
any other effects from it he is deluding
himself.
"We know exactly how much nutri-
ment a glass of beer contains. It con-
tains about five per cent, of malt
extract, the food value of which is
variable."
"This extract consists of protein
matter, converted . and unconverted
sugar, hop resin, and other substances
of no dietary value, lest as a residue
after complete evaporation. In addition
beer sometimes contains preservatives,
such as Sodium Fluoride and Salicylic
Acid, together with Soda Bicarbonate
to neutralize the acidity and to help
put the foaming head on it; also salt to
overcome the disagreeable taste, and
perhaps inspire a thirst for more."
"This leaves us a few grains of
proteid and a small amount of sugar as
the food in the beer. If the tissues
are supplied with a liberal quantity of
water, life can be sustained for a con-
siderable length of time. Dr. Tanner
fasted for forty days. Perhaps some
beer expert might do better if he could
rid the beer of the alcohol which it con-
tains, which in the absence of other
food to attack would prey upon the
tissues like a myriad of infinitesimal
teeth."
Even the brewers say in one of their
leaflets, that beer would be better with-
out alcohol if it could be made with the
same taste. Thus we see that beer
contains an exceedingly small quantity
of nourishment and that any benefit
that might come from this, is offset by
the alcohol and other poisonous sub-
stances which it contains.
It is a safe conclusion that those who
drink large quantities of beer, do so,
not for its food value, but for the dope
effect of the alcohol and other narcotic
drugs which its contains.
I plead for the co-operation of all who
can in spreading these truths,
H. ARNOTT, M. B , M. C. P. S.
Nothing Gan Compare With It
Mr. Fred Adams, New Rose, N. S.,
writes: -"I have tried many medicines
for coughs and colds but never found
anything to compare to Dr. Chase's
Syrup ot Linseed and Turpentine. We
have had the greatest satisfaction with
this medicine for it never fails to relieve
a cough and loosen it up."
SLANDER PROPERLY REBUKED
The Toronto Saturday Night, which
is an out and out independent journal
of plain-spoken and fearless character,
referred last week to another brand of
Canadian Journalism as follows: -
"Political newspaper writers are
developing curious kinks in their print.
ed products these days. Perhaps the
war is to blame. We have the ultra -
Conservative Toronto "News" trying
to make a case against Laurier, which
will hold good in Orange lodges in
Ontario, by charging the "Old Man"
with being Henri Bourassa's bosom
friend. If one did not know better it
might be imagined that Sir Wilfrid
spent the better part of his time gazing
with admiring eyes at Henri's latest
photograph. However, as Henri will
not keep still, but persists in attacking
Sir Wilfrid in the most venomous
manner, charging' him with being a
"defender in Canada of British
Imperialism, and a willing slave of
British tryanny," charges which sound
much worse in the home town of the
Nationalists' than in Tory Ontario, for
instance. under the circumstances
"The News' " slogan "that a vote for
Laurier ie a vote for Beurassa" 15 very
silly and does as little credit to the
newspaper as it does to the intelligence
Of newspaper readers,"
The poorest excuse a man can give is
to blame society for his own short-
coniinge.

rate of 60 feet per second; througlt

AERIAL MAMMON.
a MON.
Rousseau Thought it Might Come, boil
the Problem Stumped Hints
A curious little book is an old, old
treatise on aeronautics by Jean
Jacques Rousseau, called "Le Nouveau
Dedale."
Like Leonardo da Vinci and Cyrano
do Bergerac, Rousseau was haunted
by the dream of aerial navigation. We
read in his treatise; "Olen walk on the
earth, they sail on the water and swim
in it. Is not the air an element, like
the others? What business have the
birds to shut us out of their premises
vrhile we are made welcome in those
of the fishes?"
Rousseau took no stock In any the.
ories propounded by the Darius Greens
of his day. He sifted the matter for
himself and thought it involved two
problems. First, to find a body lighter
than air, so that it would rise. He
imagined that sooner or later such a
body might present itself. There was
no telling.
But what stumped him was his see-
ond problem -how to make that oblig-
ing body stop rising and bow in crea-
tion to make it come down. This was
too tough a problem for Jean Jacques,
and he wound up his book by admit'
ting it.
For a long time "Le Nouveau De.
dale" remained unpublished, appearing
only in 1801.
"Improving" Mother Goose.
We all know how far the idea of
Mother Goose as an unmoral book has
obtained. In a modern abridged edi-
tion "There was an old woman wha
lived in a shoe" ends, "She gave them
some broth and plenty of bread and
kissed them all fondly and sent them
to bed."
Why should the modern child bQ
brought up with the wholly unnatural
situation of the heavily burdened
mother who behaves just as if nothing
unusual had occurred? Their literary
taste will be ruined if pursued on these
Iines. "Spanked them all soundly and
sent them to bed" is the only possible
logical course. -Atlantic Monthly.
Marine Tonnage.
Displacement tonnage Is the weight
of the whole ship and everything
aboard her. It is found by computing
the exact cubic space under water, In-
cluding the rudder and propellers and
dividing the total by- thirty-five, since
thirty-five cubic feet of sea water
weigh a ton. Displacement tonnege is
now used only in rating warships.
A ship's gross tonnage is the cubical
measurement or contents below decks'
and includes, in the case of passenger
vessels, all the cabin space. The net
tonnage is The gross tonnage less de-
ductions fixed by Iaw. Net tonnage
excludes cabin space and machinery.
space. -New York Sun.
Origin of Dukes,
The word "duke" is from the Latin
"dux," a leader. In early Saxon tfinee
the commanders of armies were called
dukes -i. e., the leaders of the soldiery.
In other words, the first duke was the
first best fighting man. No regard wad
had to ancestry or present attainments
or any other sort of thing beyond the
simple matter of warlike efficiency.
Naturally the leader of the fighting
'would, when the fighting was over,
come in for the lion's share cf the
spoils and "honors," and naturally;
again the rest of the folks would "look
up" to him, and by degrees his superi-
ority would be imparted to his family,
and a "nobility" would spring into bee
ing. It all rested, to start with, on
brute force and animal courage com•
biped with cunning in clubbing -and
thrusting.
Cruel Science.
The unfortunate farm laborer was e
pessimist, with reason. He had been
thrown out of several jobs by the in-
troduction of farm machinery., const.
quently he distrusted everything that
smacked of conservation ot energy.
Now he stood by the kitchen table
reading the labels on parcels his wife
had brought home from town.
"Self raising flour," he said, "Abt,
they'll be inventing self raising wheat
next to throw us poor devils out of Mir
other job t" --New York Times.

CARIBOU OF THE YUKON.
Caution of en Old nun! in Guiding anti
Guarding His Hard.
In his book, "Campfires In the Yu-
kon." Harry A. Auer tells how his par.
ty watched through powerful glasses
an old bull manage a herd of caribou:
"Five miles into the sea of peaks
above our camp we saw a herd of
thirty-four caribou that had been sum-
mering in the high altitudes, but were
.row driven out by the winter and were
on the march to lower levels, There
were cows, calves and small bulls in
charge and under the strict domination
of a fine old bull with a big bead,
which we decided not to shoot for fen
of alarming the sheep that might
within bearing distance.
"We were quite content to watch th
old patriarch manage his large famil

ORIGIN OF WORDS.
Expressions Sometimes Stray Prom
Their Original Meanings.
The word "sweetheart" seems every-
thing it ought to be for expressiveness.
One would natu�illy think that it had
been colned for the occasion, like aucb
a word us "honeysuckle."
But that is a delusion and a snare.
It has no more to do with "heart" than
it has with "lungs." It is a word that
belongs to the class which includes
"sluggard" and "coward" and "dull-
ard" and "niggard." Pretty company
fora poet's word! But it is true, though
sad, that "sweetheart" ought to be
spelled "sweetard."
Who bus not joined in a country
dance? Of course the country dance
reminds oue of maypoles and merry -
makings and harvest homes. Sir Roger
de Coverley and bis quaint rural man-
ners and ways seem inseparably con-
nected with the dance. But it bas no
more connection with fields and hay-
stacks and cornricirs than the turkey
trot, The partners in the dance face
each other, and the French therefore
called it a "contre dense." There you
are! The secret's out.
What are "kickshaws?" Just the
French "quelques choses,"which means
"anything."
What is the origin of tramway? It Is
short for Outram way, because a man
named Outram invented them, just as
a man named Macadam invented mac-
adamized roads. -London Answers.
Traditions of Mother Shipton.
Of all British prophets Mother Ship-
ton is beyond doubt the most cele-
brated. She was, in fact, all that a
prophet and witch should be, In
strange contrast to the serious and
scientific Nostradamus. The day she
was born the sky became dark and
gloomy and, according to her biogra-
pher, "belcbt out nothing for an hoar
but , flames, thundering after, a most
hideous manner," Her personal ap-
pearance, described by her admiring
biographer in 1662, Is scarcely flatter-
ing: "Ser physiognomy was so mis-
shapen that it is altogether impossible
to express fully In words or for the
most ingenious to line her in colors,
though many persons of eminent quali-
fications in that Iine have often at-
tempted it, but without success:"
