NO LISTENING ON THE LINE
The greatest objection to the party
line rural 'phone system, the only sys-
tem praeticable for country districts,
is "eavesdropping," says Farm and
Dairy." Every line has its busy -bodies,
who want to know all the news of the
commutity, private or otherwise. Be-
cause of them, anything said over the
line is apt to become public property in
short order We believe the rural
'phone has failed to find its greatest
usefulness because of this one factor;
hence all will be glad to learn that the
end of eavesdropping is not far off. A
Nebraska man Mr A. J. Howard, has
invented a device which he believes
will prove against the busybody. The
following description of the device is
from the Iowa Homestead:
"The country subscriber to the tele-
phone service will operate his phone
just the same as now, except that he
will turn a little switch just as soon as
he begins to talk. This switch starts
a mechanism which is timed by a small
clock. An indicator points out the time
the conversation continues and the tele-
phone is automatically shut off at the
end of four minutes. 14 during the
conversation some other subscriber on
on the line decides to listen, the two
parties who started the conversation
will be immediately notified by a little
musical sound. Mr. A and 8, who
have the use of the line, will then know
just what receiver on the like was tak-
en down It is not claimed that any
device can be made which will lock all
the machines on the circuit save the
two from which the parties are talking
but it is believed that there will he
practically no 'listening on the line'
when the listener is known the minute
he or she attempts to eavesdrop."
This device has been submitted to
the great telephone companies for test.
If it proves practicable, ae Mr. Howard
believes it will, rural subscribers
should demand that their company add
this device to their 'phones. Its adop-
tion may not please the iocal gossips,
hut no one else will lament the demise
f that despicable habit of 'listening
at the 'phone.

INCREASED ACTIVITIES IN THE
CANADIAN COTTON
MILLS.
The war in Europe is causing greatly
increased activity in the cotton industry
in Canada. Cotton factories that were
running on short time for months pre-
vious to the breaking out of hostilities
are now being operated at full capacity.
In many plants the employees are work-
ing overtime three or four times a week,'
while in some plants night and day
shifts are being employed. Although
much of the overtime and employment
of double shifts is due to rush orders
from the Government, conditions in the
cotton industry are such as to justify
the belief that practically all employees
of Canadian cotton mills are assured of
continued employment at full time.
The imparts of manufactured cotton
into Canada have been running at about
60 per cent. of the production in Can- I
ada, or 37 per cent. of the consumption
in this country, While the largest im-
portations have come from the' United
Kingdom there have been substantial
imports from Germany, France and
Switzerland also. The shutting off of
imports from Germany and the curtail-
ment of imports of France and Swit-
zerland means that much of the cotton
that has been imported into Canada
from these countries will now have to
be made in this countre. The Canadian
cotton mills are also being called upon
to supply a portion of the trade that
formerly went to the United Kingdom.
This is due to the increased cost of cot-
ton imported from the United Kingdom
owing to the increased freight rates,
exchange, and insurance, and to uncer-
tainty on the part of many dealers re-
garding delay or loss of shipment.
The condition of stocks in the retail
trade in Canada at the commencement
of hostilities was another factor in bring-
ing about the increased demand upon
the Canadian cotton mills. For some
time previous to the breaking out of
the war the consumption of cotton in
Canada had been very much tinder nor-
mal. Unsatisfactory business condi-
tion had resulted in dealers allowing
their stocke to run down, Many dealers
who did place orders for future needs
made their orders subject to later in-
structions as to delivery. It is aignifi,
cant and most encouraging fact that
since the commencement of hostilities
most of such orders have been released
for imtnediate shipment. The release,
of those orders, together with the re-
ceipt of new orders from regular cus-
tomers who had delayed ordering because
of uncertainty as to the crop and
business Conditions generally, and orders
from other dealers who had formerly
ordered abroad; are giving the cotton
industry in Canada a great impetus at
this time.
The putting of cotton to new uses to
replace other imported raw Materials
that cannot be secured is still another
reagon for the increesed activities in
the eotton indtistey in this Wintry. It
has been customary to tlqe jate in the
makieg of sugar bags and of flour bage
for export purposes. Jute, in its raw
state, comes from India, and, as a rule,
is manufactured in the United King-
dom. The holding up of several ship-
ments of jute has resulted in 5 dearth
of jute in Canada for the substitution
of heavy Cotton for jute in the manu-
facture of flour and sugar bags. If
the importation of late continees to be
iMpossible Or it materially curtailed, it
May beriateeiaary to use heavy Cotton
instead ef jute in the making of oil
cloth. Other possible uses for cotton
are being investigated by Canadian
manufacturers and as one of them puts
it, "new uses are being discovered
every day."
Thus the outlook for the cotton indus-
try in Canada is brighter to -day than it
has been for some time. It is true
some manufactures are a little uneasy
regarding the supply of dye -stuffs and
chemicals, which have come in the past
from Germany, but the general opinion
is that with some re -adjustments and
perhaps some changes in shades, suffi-
cient dye -stuffs and chemicals to meet
the Canadian demand will be secured.
Everythibg points to a busy winter for
all the Canadian cetton mills and to
zontinued employment for their 14,000
employees.
INCREASED DEMAND FOR CANA-
DIAN MADE ELECTRIC LAMPS.
The tungsten and incandescent lamp
industry in Canada will benefit through
the industrial conditions created by the
war. There have been large importa-
tations of tungsten and incandescent
lamps from Continental Europe into
Canada and these importations will be
greatly curtailed, if not completely shut
off, as a result of the war.' This will
result -indeed has resulted already -in
greatly increased demands upon the
Canadian manufacturers of these
articles.
When the war broke out the plant of
the Canadian Tungsten Lamp Co., Lim-
ited, at Hamilton, was shut down for
the summer. Under ordinate' conditions
operations would not have been resumed
until September 15. re View of the
probability of an increased demand on
account of the war the plant was put
in operation on August 15-a month
ahead of the usual time. Since oper-
ations were re -commenced the staff has
been employed several nights a week
in an effort to keep, up the demand.
Although the present output of the
plant is 75 per cent greater than under
nomad conditions it is not sufficient to
meet the increased demand. Recently
three large orders. which under normal
conditions would have kept the plant
busy for three week% were refuse d
because of the difficulty of filling orders
already in hand.
The plant of the Canadian Sunbeam
Co., Limited, in Toronto, was reopened
on July 28 after the usual thirty -day
summer shutdown. This plant has beer)
operated ever since at full capacity and
plans are being made to double last
years's oetput.
There are technical difficulties in the
way of operating a double shift in a
tungsten or incandescent lamp factory,
The work is of a technical nature and
it takes a new employee some consider-
able time to become adept at it. How-
ever, if the present demand upon the
Canadian tungsten and incandescent
lamp factories continues, as is likely to
be the case, the training of additional
shifts for night work will be necessary.
The Canadian Manufacturers of tung-
sten and ineandescent lamp had soMe
probleMs to face in contection with the
securing of certain taw material Whieb
has bean corning from some of the
couatries inVolved in the war. It is
understOod a SolutiOn of these problems
has been found and there will be no
serious inconvenience on this score.

To rescue her children opprest?
They have all that the richest lands
afford.
They sit content at an ample board ,
As safe as a bird ;n its nest.

Has she laid her spear on the shield
of Mars
New lands in the wars to gain?
Her dominions extend wherever the
stars
Are blushing with shame for our
foolish wars;
Her ships are on every main.
And not that the world may acclaim
her grand,
Is the roar of her guns on the
seas;i
Her name s lustred on every strand,
Her glory is known to the farthest
land
Where her standard floats on the
breeze.
Au, this is the pillar of cloud and
fire
That leads her hosts along,
And this the goal of their deep de-
sire,
The road where their feet shall never
tire,
To be just, keep faith, and be
strong:
So the Mothers ofNations has risen
in might
At the word of the onward call;
She has shaken her banners forth to
the light
And marched to the front of the peo-
ple'a fight
Like the van of a tidal wall.

Eczema MI The Head
Mr. Peterson s South Bay, Ont.,
writes: "For years I suffered a sort of
eczema on the head. X tried four diff-
erent doctors, giving each a fair trial,
but the disease grew worse and spread
to my arm. 1 got Dr. Chase's Oint-
ment, and it has entirely cured me. I
give you my name because I want
other sufferer to know about this splen-
did Ointment."
