Wages olAranat Help.
a In recent years the wages of farm
help have in,creasecl considerably,
an.d they reached their highest
point during the bumper harvest of
1913. But in 1914 the - pendulum
swayed !hada less labor being re-
quired on farms owing to lighter
crops. Since August the war has
ha,d for one of its effects an in-
crease in the supply of farm labor
and consequently a fall in the
wages. The demand for laheir this
winter has also decreased because
of the increased east of board. For
the Dominion the average wages
per month during the summer, , in-
cluding board, were $35.55 for male
and $18.81 for female help. For
the year, including board, the .av-
eraging wages were $323.30 for
males and $189.35 for emales.
whilst the average cost of board
per month weeks but to $14.27 for
males and .$11.20 for females, as
ccunpared with $12.49 and $9.53 in
1910.
Aver.ag-e wagee per month in 1914
'were lowest in Prince Edward Is-
land, viz.; $24.71 for males and
$14.48 for females ; in Nova Scotia
they were $31.20 and $14.80, and
in Neaelarunswick $31.93 and $15.
In Queb`ec the averages were $33.56
and $15.65, and in Ontario $32.09
nd $16.67. Itt the western pro:v-
nen they were for males $39,13 in
"Manitelea, $40.51 in Saskatchewan,
and $40.26 in Alberta; females re-
ceiving $22.35 in Manitoba,. $22.96
in Saskibbehewan an•d $23.63 in Al-
berta. The highest wages were paid
in British Columbia,. viz., $47.85
for. males and $31.18 for females,
these averages being substantially
less than in 1910 when males receiv-
cM $57.140 and females $38.

• Values are -well maintained so
far .as c,ornparison with the three
years ancled. 1910 is .concerned; but
dpring 1914 there has been a sub-
•t;taiitial'reduction in the value both
of horses and. of swine. It is 4.1..
cause of general complaint that the
• demand for. horses other than lor
• military purpose.s has fallen off,
en;dahat prices are less by lrom 26
to 40 or 50 per cent. than they were
in 1.81)3. .
Owing to the high price7of grain
the. keeping of swine in the west is
said to -be no longer a paying pro,.
position, }Togs have been sold for
what they will fetch --frequently
es little as 3% cents per lb. -and

per head for all Canada .come to
$121aaer hoeses, $57 for mileh cows,
• $42 for other oath, $7 for sheep
and $12 .for swine. The following
is believed to be •a rough approxi-
mation .of the total value of Cana-
dian farm live stock in 1914: Horses
$3,71,430,000; cattle $297431,000;

.Curione Antipathies.
The philosopher Boyle swooned at
the sound of water splashing, and
Tycho Beahe fainted at Vile sight of
a fox. An old Greek writer records
the instance of a man who swooned
at the sound of a flute. - More
strange still, a elergyinam, it is
stated, eould never hear a eertain
verse of Jeremiah read without
faiating. Marshal dAlbeet could
not bear the sight of a pig, and the
Duke d'Epernay swooned at the
sight of a leveret. All these are
genuine eases, of a, deep-seated na-
tural antipathy, and many others
might be recounted" .• Therefore,
says the Family Doctor, when. we
meet with persons, who declare that
the .smell of tobacco makes tbem
feel ill, it may be a real physieed
infirmity.

WILE:a EUROPE IS AT WAR.
How the Verities Countries ill.
'Volved' A.re Affected.
The early pages the Agricul-
tural War Book published by the
Departen.ent of Agriculture, Ottawa,
are devoted to brief essays princi-
pally on agricultural matters, but
aleo on the duty of us all, by the
Prime efinister, by the Finance Min-
ister of the country, by the various
Ministers of Agriculture a the pro -
vines •and by the learned profes-
sors of agricultural- colleges and
experimental farms. Following are
given industrial and agricultural.
details in brief of e•ach European
eountry engaged in the war or afs
fe.cted by the war, and of the Bri-
tish possessions. From this is
learned that prior to the otetbreak
of h.ostilities,, Belgium was not only
the most thickly populated country
in the world, but .a.lso about the
most industrious. In the first 82
days of the war, which has now last-
ed upwards of 200 days, damage to
the extent of $1,059,836,000 had
been clone,'out of which $283,614,000
is attributed to agricultural injury.
Northern France has ,thillered pro-
portionately to an equal extent.
Russia, while. pre-eminently an
agricultural country, brOducing
nearly on'e-fourth of the world's
wheat, fully a fourth of its oats, a
third of its barley and a qhall of its
rye, still possesses immense manu-
facturing industries. It also
abounds in minerals, and its .for-
ests, of which there are 900 million
acres, are the finest the earth
knows
Canada's interest lies in particu-
lar with the export trade of Ger-
many, much of which this country
has the right and expectation to
secure. In 1913, we learn from the
War Book, Germany imported
nearly one-eighth of all the world
has to, sell and exported mote than
one -ninth of all the world wanted
to buy. Her yearly output of
manufactured goods ran up to be-
tween twelve and fifteen billion
dollars, of which one-sixth at least
found its way to foreign markets
that are now ,elosed to; her, and in
inanyeeases will never be renewed.
"Made in Germany" and "Made in
Austria", with which we had most
of us bedome familiar, will, it is
Lo be hoped, be largely replaced by
"Made in Canada.
What is of special interest is the
fact that Germany in 1913 produced
2;720,000; tons; of refined sager from
beets, mined 260,000,000 tons 'of
coal and lignite, 29,879•00 tons' of
iron ore, and that while- using iii
that year of peaoe 225800 tons of
copper, she e.oeld only unearta. 23,-
000 tons of her own accord. Ger-
many n•orreally imports one-siecta
of the cereals she -oonsumes, but
exports, enormous quantities of
potatoes., Withoitt doubt the sur-
plus of the latter now in 'stock' is
being used -for ikon Germany
bought betvieen, seven; and eight
million geese from Russia, !annually
and sold Great Britain between
eleven and twelve million bushels
of oats. She also in 1913 imported
160,000 tons-smark it, tons -of
eggs. These. statements will miffl.
ciently indicate the vast disturbance
that has taken Place in German
trade.
Austria-Eittaktry exported in bulk
as many menOtid horses as it did of
material, fea 150,000 to '200,000
imnagrants akoising the'sects 'every
year. Betabhe dual einpire is ex-
ceedingly rich in minerals, and
Hungary is one of the principal
grain -growing realoas ef Europe,
the average produce being 145,00),-
(500 bushels of wheat, 46,500,000
bushels Of rye, 53,5.00,000 bushels of
barle'y, '65,000,000 bushels of oats
and 118,000,000 bushels of oorn.
Hanigary, too, is rich in rive stock,
having in 1914, 2,300,000 horses,
7,300,000 cattle, 8,500,000 'sheep,
and 7,500,000 swine. From these
figures it would seem that i5 will' be

A. TRADER'S .STIREWDNESS.
How Ile Obtained the Information
Re Wanted.
A wealthy Merchant iri Paris who
had. an extensive business with ja-
pan was told that a prominent firm
in Yokohama had failed, but he
could not learn the flexile of the
firm. He eouild have. learned the
truth by cabling, but to save ex-
pense he went to • a well known
bankerwho had received the news
and asked him the name of the firm.
•The story is told in the Family -Her-
ald.
"That'e a very delicate thing to
do," replied the banker, "for the
news is not official', and if I gave you
the name I might incur some re-
sponsibility."
Then the merohant said:'
"I will give you a list of ten
&ins in Yokohama, and I will ask
you to look through it and then tell
me, -Without mentioning any name,
v,tether the name of the firm that
has failed appears in it. Surely
you will do that, for me1"
"Yes," said the banker, "for if I
do not mention any name I -cannot
be held responsible."
• The merchant made out his list,
the banker looked ahrouga it, and,
as he 'handed it back; said:
"The name of the ineecilaant who
has failed is there."
"Then I've lost heavily," replied
the me•rchant, for that is the firm
with which I -did business" -
a name on the:list. •
'But ihoW do you know that is the
firm that failed?" • asked the
hankee, itt surprise.
"Very easily!" replied the mer-
chant. "Of the ten riames on the
list, only one is genuine -that of
the firm with which I did business;
all the others are fictitious."

We knelt itt our prayer, and thanked

Tall and strong, and fair to see:
True to the blood of parent's youth,
Labor and love had borne the truth -
And our hearts grew rich with parent-

When we looked at his manly walk

And often our thanks to God on high

Seemed banished from us, in his

And the twilight hour, 'With rosy gleam
