In the first two years of the war the people of England have voluntar- ily contributed more than $250,000,000 to the work of the various British or- ganizations which are concerned with measures of relief. This is a conser- vative estimate and does not take into account the tremendous volume of gifts and services which can never appear in ahy account of what has been accomplished to meet the condi- tions arising out of the war. The first national fund opened in England on the outbreak of the war was called the Prince of Wales' Re- lief Fund. Its object was to relieve distress consequent on the war, and the receipts now total $30,000,000., In addition to this national fund, local funds for similar, purpose have been raised in all parts of the country and these represent a further $15,000,000. The call on these. funds has been re- stricted by two conditions not antici- pated in the Autumn of 1914; the tre- mendous demands for labor to meet the requirements of Great Britain and her allies consequent on the war; the wonderful generosity of people re- maining in civilian employment in the interests of those who joined the colors. In every department of life, in banks, offices, factories, 0ol1ieries, and . so on, systematic arrangements were made by which shareholders,. employers and Wage-earners made regular contributions to help the farrl- lies and dependents of their own men who had taken up arms. It is reek- oned that the total of such voluntary contribution's represents at feast. $50,000,000. 00 to ••tae Front j Put yourself in top-notch .O -, dition by eating Shredded.

The soil is the one great factoral foundation not only of agriculture but of the nation's welfare, hence it is practically impossible to spend an excess and care on its cultivation and preservation. Therefore any knowl- edge that results from experience- is of the greatest value. A deal of in- formation acquired from such experi- ence in Bulletin No. 27, second series, entitled "Soil Fertility, its economic maintenance and increase," just is- sued by the Department of Agricul- ture of which Dr. Frank T. Shutt, the Dominion Chemist, is author, and which can be had free by application to the Publications Branch of the De- partment at the capital. Dr. Shutt sounds an intensely practical note of warning when he argues that we have been terribly wasteful of plant food and that every effort should be made to maintain and increase the fertility of our soils, and, by more ' rational methods, endeavor to put a stop to that waste. While the warning is directed to the Northwest, "where farming has been likened to mining," Ontario and Eastern Canada gener- ally are summoned to account. In brief, a change is called for from ex- cents a box from The Dr. Williams tensive to intensive farming, the les- Medicine Co., Brockville, Ont. son that it is, sought to convey being that there is more profit in high til- A FAVORITE WITH THE GREEKS. lige andconservation in cultiva"tion than in methods of mere routine. Sir Francis Elliott Has Won Many Having gone minutely into the pro- Bloodless Victories. perties, necessary treatment and ap- plication of farmyard manures, the doctor supplies a table giving the ap- proximate composition of manure (fresh) from various animals, de- scribes the manurial value of clover, the component elements and bene- ficial influence exercised by fertiliz- ers, and refers to the places occupied by wood ashes and seaweed as potas- sic fertilizer. He goes into the vir- tues of gypsum and nitrate of soda as indirect potash fertilizer, conclud- ing in an instructive review of the chief means by which the productive- ness of the soil may be increased and preserved, by urging farmers to make greater use of the various means and agencies provided by the governments —Federal and Provincial—"for the assistance of the man on the land by information, advice and demonstra- tion." "There is no country," he avows, "better provided than Canada in this respect," Regarding manure, two important facts to be remember- ed are where it is not at once utiliz- ed by being put into the oil, or on to the soil, one-third of its initial value is lost, and that the loss is least where the *tenureis. kept compact and pro- tected from rain.
