WOMEN IN CIVIC POLITICS. Peterboro Examiner: Amidst To- ronto's Mayor voting folly on New Year's Day, there is one bright spot - a lady was elected a member of the Board of Education -Dr. Caroline S.

To the few who have done so much for the advancement of the in- dustry every credit is due. Through the lack, however, of concerted action and co-operative measures on a large scale amongst the breeders, the busi- ness has not progressed as rapidly as could be desired. The want of proper organization, ex- cept in the more favoured districts, has prevented the farmers generally from securing and retaining the services of good breeding sires. In a majority of sections, breeders wishing to grade up their horses aree forced to use whatever stallions may, by chance, stand for ser- vice in their district. Many of these are faulty in conformation and lack in quality, while others, though of better type, remain, either through insufficient patronage or because of failure to leave colts, but a single season in each dis- trict. The fact also that there has been no systematic adherence to the use of one breed suggests another reason for the lack of progress in the breeding of high class animals. It must be recognized, further, that the owner of a valuable horse, after paying for maintenance, insurance, in- terest on investment and the expense entailed in the collection of his fees, has frequently little left from his out- lay, particularly in districts where he has to compete with grade and scrub stallions standing for service at a very lout fee. As a result, really high class stallions can be maintained only in dis- tricts where the breeding of horses has been given serious and progressive at- tention. In view of these considerations, the Minister of Agriculture to enter upon a policy which may serve to place the horse breeding industry in Canada in a position• comparable to that which it has attained in Great Britain and other European countries. It is believed that by encouraging the organization of breeders' clubs and by enabling such clubs to procure the services of good breeding stallions under favourable financial conditions, the assistance in this direction can best be provided. The encouragement of community breeding will, naturally, of itself, be p•oductive of useful results. The pay- ment to community organizations of a part of the service fee will, it is expect - MOTHERS 1.14.1.t 4;.t if this were your son ?

Gradually, the right of women to exercise an active influence in civic politics is being recognized, and why not, especially in educational matters? Women who bear and rear children and have the greater responsibity in regard to their mental and physical develop- ment, and character formation, must gain a knowledge amounting to intui- tion, that especially fits them for supervision of the educational processes by which the education of the child is accomplished. When a woman has good sense, she is much more sensible than a man. If such a woman makes up her mind to do the right thing as a member of a Board of Education, she is sure to succeed. Why shouldn't wo- men have the franchise? If all the women in Toronto on Friday had had the vote they couldn't have abused the right as much as 6,000 male electors did. - STRANGE EFFECT OF BEER. To the Editor: - The New York Mail and Empress says "The attention of the New York hospi- tal surgeons has leeen called to the num- ber of bartenders that have lost fingers off both hands. The first case was that of an employee of a Bowery Con- ceet Hall. Three of the fingers of the right hand and two of the left were al- most rotted away when he called at the Bellevue Hospital and begged the doctors to explain the reason." They told him that it was due to the fingers being constantly wet with beer. His duty was to draw beer for the thousands who visited the gardens nightly. Other cases have been observed and physicians say that many bartenders have their fingers ruined in the same way. The acid in the beer and the resin are said to be responsible. Judge Clark, Chairman of the Royal Commission expressed surprise that I nearly every doctor he asked the ques- tion of said that beer was much more harmful than whiskey. It was many; years after that when the great Doctor Van Noorden discovered that this was due to an acid development in the beer during fermentation which caused it to ruin the kidneys very rapidly. I practised for ten years in a village where I knew the habits of every one. Inside of that time all the bad beer drinkers were dead of Brights disease I before there was any break in the! ranks of the whiskey drinkers with the exception of one who was drowned by falling off a bridge when very drunk. I Since that I have advised men who' must have drink to give up beer and' drink whiskey as it iso not so likely to shorten life as beer. Even the Brewers Journal admits' that 66,000 is a fair estimate of the number killed by drink in the United States and my experience would lord me to believe that three fourth of these are caused by beer. When we examine the figures we find that drink kills hundreds for every one killed by war. When will people learn what an awful poison lies concealed in a glass of beer. II. Arnott, M.B.,M,C.P.S.

What have the residents of Shuter street, north of John St, done that the snow plow has not been along that street this winter? The salt producers of Western On- tario have had several meetings lately at London, with a view of organizing an association to prevent undue compet- ition among themselves and to improve their positions. It is altogether likely that there will be a slight rise in the price of salt, as a consequence of tl e formation of the association. For a number of months back salt has been sold at ruinous prices to the manufac- turers.

Orton. a United ae States departnleUt of agriculture ' pathologist, says that a large spart of the territory of southern, south central and western states • obtains better results from seed • potatoes grown uer the North• es ern border of Maine, New York. `, Minnesota and. other northern t states. ee Replanting diseased seed po- ' tatoes in the same localities t merely brings poor stock. Fresh 7 Potatoes from distant points, mi- nus blemishes, will cure the evil. The fact that newly irrigated or recently deforested portions of Minnesota. Wisconsin and Michi- gan are being planted to pota- toes makes the information more valuable. . Seeding these new patches with sick or blemished potatoes spells failure for new growers. The essential thing here as elsewhere is healthy seed pota- toes, preferably obtained from distant points. Thus if a garden has been blighted with bad seed potatoes, it may eventually be purified by better stock, cultiva- tion and fertilization. v 0000 0 0 O O 0 d 0 0 0 O 0 0 0 0 O 0 0 0 0 0 O 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 O 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 TO USE SURPLUS POTASH. Chemists Report That Crops Are In No Immediate Danger. Because of the action of the Ger- man government in prohibiting the ex- portation of concentrated potash salts reports have been made indicating that farmers were becoming alarmed over the consequences of a possible restric- tion in the supply of commercial fer- tilizers. Manufacturing chemists say, however, that there is no danger of a failure of a reasonable crop produc- tion on this account. One of these chemists has given his views its follows: Potash is one of the three elements most essential to plant growth. Prac- tically all soils suitable for farming contain potash in available and also in unavailable form. As plant life takes potash only to the extent of its needs, if there is any excess in the soil it will remain until used, as potash does not leach out of the' ground. Fortu- nately many farmers have been using potash in increased amounts each year, so that the soil is Vetter sup- plied with available potash than was the case a few years ago, and there probably remains in the soil a supply which has not been assimilated. The problem of the individual farm- er is to conserve his potash, which can be done in the following way: Green manuring or turning under a cover crop, dressing heavily with barn- yard manure,balancing chicken ma- nure with nitrate of soda `andacid phosphate, saving wood ashes to mix with nitrate of soda and acid phos- phate and rendering inert soil potash available. Nitrate of soda will do more than any other agent to render soil potash available. The potash that can be made available in the soil is usually in the form of hydrated silicate of potash and alumina. The nitrogen in nitrate of soda, having been assimilat- ed by the plants, leaves a residue of soda which acts on the hydrated sili- cate of potash and alumina and ren- ders the potash available. As the amount of potash which can be made available in any soil is quite limited, the process of freeing It is only a temporary measure to meet an emergency, and it must eventually be replaced. Every 100 pounds of nitrate of Soda will split off fifty to fifty-five pounds of -actual potash and assure successful crops for a time where no additional potash is used. Handy Section Nests. tine sketch shows a plan for liens' nests which I find very easy to clean, says William C. Albright in the Farm and Fireside. Just lift each section off and sweep the top of the section below. There is no bottom to clean. The top of the lower section serves as the bottom of the one above, but is not attached to it. A is a platform thirty inches wide and as long as desired; B is a 1 by 4 inch strip 'to hold the nest material; CO are boards 1 by 12 by 13 inches which are partitions between nests; le is a 1 by 4 for hens to walk on to get in upper section; E is a 1 by 12 inch board, the top of the first section.
