AND Statistics Office Details ReSulis Inquiries Mado Thronghout Dominion, ' A press bulletin issued recently by ,the Census ,and -Statietics Office summarizes theresalta of inquiries, made by 'crop -reporting, corre- spoudents as to (i) the values of farm land„() the values of larm !help, and (a) the values of farm live stock in 1914, For the while of Canada the 11,7 - nage value of farm land held for agricultural nurPoses, whether im- proved 01' 1111lixtprove4, and includ- ing the value of dwelling house:, farms, stables and other pfarm buildings, is returned as $38.41 per acre, evhich is about equal to that of ti*.ltiat similar inquiry in 1,910, when the value was given as $38.45 per are. In 1811 the average was returned by the C.lensus as $30.41, but -this value was based upon re- turns from all occupiers, including farms only recently settled and therefore of less value. By pro- aineee the average values of 1911 range from $21 per acre in Alberta ito $150 per acre in Britisli Colun- bia. In this province, however, the high value is due to oreharding, .4.9r.4inary agriculture being subsi- diary to fruit cultural Wages of Fann LIelp. ,, In recent years the wages of farm help have increased eonsiderably,. and they ” reached their highest point during the bumper harvest of 1913. But in 1914 the pendulum swaYed1blick, less' labor being re- quired On farms owing to lighter crops. Since August the war has had for one of its effects an in- , crease in the supply of farm labor „ (and consequently a fall in the wages. The demand fdr labor this winter has also decreased becanse of the bier -eased cost of board. For the Dominion the average wages per month during the slimmer, in- cluding board, were $35.5e for male and $18.81 for female help. For -the year, inoluding board, the avs era,ging wages were $323.30 fcir males and $189.35 for females. • whilst the average cost of board 'per month worksout to $14.27 for nia-les .and. $11.20 for ;females, a• S compared with $12.19 and .$9.53 in 1910. Average wages per month in 1914 r were lowest in Prince Edward Is- land, viz., $24.71 for males and • $14.48 for fern.ales; in Nova Scotia they were $31.20 and $14.80, and in New Brunswick $31.93 an $15. -In Quebec the averages were $33.56 .a,nd $15.95, and in Ontario, $32.09 and $16.67. In the western pr4v- in.ces they were for males $39.13 in Manitoba, $40.51 in SaSkatchewan, and $40.26 in Alberta; females re- ceiving $22.35 in Manitoba, $22.96 in Saskatchewan and $23.63 in Al- berti4,The .highest wages were paid in British Columbia, viz., $47.85 • for Males and $31.18. for females, r - theseaverages being .substantially • leiS than in 191Q when ,inalles receiv- ed $57.20 and females $38. Farm Live Stock, Valueis are well maintained so far as compariaon with the three years ended 1910 is concerned; but during 1914 there has been a sub- stanlial reduction in the value both of horses and of swine. It is a cause of general complaint that the 'demand for horses other than for inilitary purposes bas fallen off, and that prices are less by from 25 • to 20 or 50 per cent. than they were in 1813. • Owing to the high price of grain the keeping of swine in the west is said to be no longer a. paying pro - •position. Hogs have been sold for what they will letch--tfrequently • as little as 334 cents per lb. ---and many have been marketed in an un- finished condition. On the other hand the prices of cattle have been. well in.aintained and the average values for dairy cows and for other horned • cattle are considerably • above those of 1910. The averages per head for all 'C.anada come to. $127 for horses, $5'7 for milch. cows, $42 for other cattle, $7 for sheep and $12 for swine. The following is'believ-ed to be a rough approxi - metiers of the total value of Cana- dian farm live stock in 1914: Horses $371,430,000; - cattle $297,131,000; sheep $14,551,000, and swine '$42,- •'418,000, or an aggregate of $725,- 530,000 for, all descriptions. .1,, • Ju The_ Houle. • In no place is it possible to be so entirely natural and free as in the home, but in order theia.is siliould not be abused n °ex- - tails -amount Of :give and takeshould be pra.eticed.

Curious Antipathies. The philosopher Boyle swo.oned at the sound of water splashing, and Tycho *Braila fainted at the taight 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 clergyman, it is stated, oould never hear a certain verse of :Jeremiah read. , without fainting. Marshal d'Albret .could not bear the .sight of a pig, and the Duke d'Epernay swooned at the sight of a leveret. All these are genuine cases of a deep-seated na- tural antipathy, and many ,ethers might be recounted. Therefore, 'says the Family Doctor, when we meetwith persona who decla,re.that the smell of tobaceo makes, them feel ill, it may be a real physical infirmity. Prehistoric Bottles. •- i According to recent' discoveries t appears that nursing bottles were used even in prehistoric times. This is true at least for the age of pol- ished etone. inasrnueh as a French archaeologist, when exploring a neolithic funeral deposit, found sinall clay bottle, and this was quite iata•ct. This is not the only specimen of the kind which -comes from early ages. Among others are the specimens found in the Ganaish burial places of Jouchery, and marc recently in the Gallo -Roman arena of Paris. • STRENGTH Without Overloading the Stomach.

WHEN EUROPE IS AT WAR. How the Various Countries volved Are Affected. The early pages of the Agricul- tural War Book published, by the Department of Agriculture, Ottawa, are devoted to brief essays princi- pally on agricultural matters, but also •on the duty if us all, by the Prime, Minister, by the Finance Min- ister of the country, by the various Ministers of Agriculture of,the pro- vinces and by the learned profes- sors Of agricultural collego.s and experimental farms. Following are given industrial and agricultural details in brief of each European country engaged in the war or af- fected by the war, and of the Bri- tish possessions. From this is learned that prior, to the outbreak of hostilities, Belgituai was not only the most thickly populated country in the world, but also about the most industrious. In the fitst 82 days of the war, which has now last- ed upwards of 200 days, damage to the extent of 11,059,836,009 had been done out of which $283,614,000 is attribut!ecl to agricultural injury. Northern France has suffered pro- portionately to an equal extent. Russia. while pee -eminently an agricu/tural country, producing nearly one-fourth of the world's wheat, fully a fourth of its oats, a third of its barley and a half 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 knon's Canada's interest lies in paatieu- 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 more than one -ninth of sell the world wanted to buy. Her yearly output of manufactured goods ran up to be- tween twelve and fiftden billion dollars, of which one-sixth at least found its way to foreign markets that are now closed to her, and in many .cataes will never be renewed. "Made in Germany" and "Made in Austria", with winch we had most of as become familiar, will, it is Lo be hoped, be largely replaced by "Made in Canada." What is of special interest is the fact that Germanyin 1913,pr-educed 2,720,000 tons of refined sugar from beets, mined 260,000,000 .tons of coal and lignite, 29,879,000 tons of iron. ore, and that while using in that year of peace 225800 tons of copper, she could only unearth 23,- 000 tons of her own accord. Ger- many normally imports one-sixth of the e,ereals she eonsurees, bit •exports enormous quantities potatoes. With,out doubt the sur- plus of the latter now in stock is being used for flour. Gerniany bought between seven and eight million geese from Russia annually and sold Great Brita•in between eleven and twelve million bushels of oats. She also, in 1913 imported 160,000 tons—mark it, tons—of eggs. These statements will suffi- ciently indicate the vast disturbance that has taken place in German tratstria-Hungary exported in bulk as many men and horses as it did of material, from 150,000 to 200,000 immigrants crossing th-e seas every year,- But the dual empire is ex- ceedingly rich in minerals-, and Hungary is one of the' prineipal grain -growing regions of Europe, the average produce being 145,000,- 000 bushels of wheat, 46,500,000 bushels of rye, 53,500,000 -bushels of barley, -65,000,000 bushels, of oats and 118,000,000 bushels of corn. 'Hungary, too is rich in live stock, having in 101,1, 2,300;000 horses, 7,300,000 cattle, 8,500,000 sheep, and, 7,500,000 swine. From 'these figures it would seem that it Will be a 'tougher job to 'starve- Germany than reports would make it appear. re yonl ninth younger are you than the intereet. lady next door He 'Could Jsrof'• , Make One Step THEN 1900 'S KIDNEY PILLS C 1.7.11tED, WA LT J$1 1.

A wealthy merehant in Paris who had an extensive business with Ja- pan was told that a prominent firm in Yokohama had failed, but he eould not learn :the name of the firm. He conk' .bare learned the truth by cabling, but to save ex- pense he went to a wellknown banker who had received the news and asked him the name of the firm,. The story is- told in the Family Her- ald. "That's a very deli -rate thing to do," replied the banker, "for the news is not official, and if I gave you the Dame I might -incur some re- sponsibility:" Then the merchant said: "I will give you -a list of ten firms in Yokohama, and I will ask you to look th,rough it and then teal me, withol-0". lentioning any name, whether the,' name of the firm that has failed appears in it. Surely you will de 'that for met" e "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 through it, and, as he handed it bank, said: , "The name of ita16 merchant who has failed is there." "Then I' ye lost heavily," replied the merchant, 'Tor that is the firm with which I did sh;ow ing him a, name on the list. "But how do you know, that is the firm that has failed?" asked the banker, in surprise. "Very easily!" replied the mer- chant. "Of theten names on the list, only -ono is genuine—that of the firm with wehich I did business; all the others are fictitions." sT4. QUIET THOUGHTS. A little with peace is .better than much with war. None are so wicked that there is not some good in thein. • The keynote of a genuine life is always sursum corda, "Lift up your hearts !" Let us beware of treating others' passing moods as if . they were per- manent characteristics. Do not -envy the rich. Those with great wealth mostly have great cares, and few to. truly love them. The trouble you a -re dreading will not be nearly so bad as you believe. Try to, keep a brave heart and face it With -calmness, and .you will see the silver light shining behind the heaviest, clouds.
