The cold starts with a little running of the nose, the head becomes stuffed up, but little attention is paid to it, thinking perhaps it will go away in a day or two. You neglect it, and then it gets down into the throat and from there to the lungs, and it is a case of cough, cough, morning, noon and night. However slight a cold you have you should never neglect it. In all possi- bility, if you do not treat it in time, it will develop into bronchitis, pneumonia, or some other serious throat or lung trouble, Dr. Wood's Norway Pine Syrup is a universal remedy for Utak: who suffer from any bronchial trouble.?, It stimu- lates the weakened bronchial organs, soothes and heals the irritated parts, loosens the phlegm and mucous, and aids nature to clear away the morbid accumu- latieps. Mrs. Wm. Kaye, Talmage, Sask., writes:—" Last winter I took a severe cold which settled on my chest. I had a bad cough for weeks. 1 got some medi- cine from our doctor but it did me no friendadvised one to try last a sc, good.

We made self -feeders for our hogs by knocking the bottom out of oil barrels and setting them in a plank box with a tight bottom, the sides of which are four inches high. In other words, this foundation or platform was made out of 2x6's, and 2x6's were used for the outside. This box was three feet square. The barrel was sent in the centre on pieces of 2x4, raising lit two inches from the bot- tom and then the top of the barrel was braced to the corner of the plat- form. This gives good results. Any carpenter can make a satisfac- tory self -feeder. All you have to do is to make a box tapering on the in- side like a grain bin. Have the sides slope to the bottom so that they are about four inches apart and this put into a sort a trough, say a foot wide, that will give six inches of space on either 'side. This can be made as high hind as long as one deems necessary. A cover can be made on either or both sides to be raised when it is filled with corn or other food, and then closed to protect from. storms. Bulbs Fail to Flower in High Temperatures. Too high temperature is respon- sible for the "blasting" of buds of such plants as the Chinese sacred lily, paper white narcissus, and hyacinth. The serious mistake in bulb cul- ture is to set the bulbs in the warm- est and sunniest location in the house. This is entirely wrong treatment, for it encourages rapid growth, resulting in abundant foliage and no flowers. The 'belts should be set away in a cool, dark place until they have de- veloped a goodly supply of roots. If top growth starts somewhat and is white, the bulb enthusiast need not be alarmed, for the shoots will turn green after being brought to the light. From four to six weeks, depending on the bulbs and conditions of growth, will be required to develop the desired root system: Even when the roots are developed and the bulbs are brought 'to the light, they should not be subjected to too high temper- atures, as this is the cause of "blast- ing" of buds.

The Business of Farming.—IV. I A clay soil is close and compact in Food of Plants.—In previous arti- l nature, contains a moderate supply cies we have dealt with the home of j of all the plantfoods, but after crops r the plant and now we turn to one l ` ping for some time, what is left in the phase of the discussion of the, mat- soil of the three ,important plantfoods erial on which crops live and thrive. t is in a relatively slowly available A year ago people living in Eng- i form, therefore crops that are • to I land and France were on a ration reach maximum growth on such types basis.

In fact it may be when the British Government found so rapid that it may result in a de - it desirable `to apply a rationing sys- Bided inferiority of product.

This fact must period of time. On a truly dietetic be kept in mind when the farmer at - basis the Government provided for tempts to grow good crops on soil of card holders so many pounds of heat that kind. and energy producer, (ea.rbo-hy- Stock manure is nature's great drates), so Many pounds of muscle- source of plantfood, outside of the producer (protein), and so ninny pounds•of fat,,within a definite period Of time. . When lie traded for t vi etI oats f n corn or hay for shoes, in the days of the early settlers, they did not bother much about quality or balance of rations, but when meat and comps became arti- cles of sufficient demand, it paid the producer to study the balance of food bot'n for annual and plant. This has given the basis for the balancing of food for crops; The modern farmer knows that his crops take up ten con- stituents in order to form root, i branch and fruit. The first of these is nitrogen, the constituent of plant food which causes the growth of potato -vine, t corn -stalk; and wheat -straw. If the soil is short of nitrogen it means short stalk, poor straw and poor growth of apple tree. If the soil is too bountifully supplied with nitro- gen and does not contain a desirable balance of other foods, the result is too much plant growth, and the con- sequent inferiority of fruit and grain. The next important constituent is phosphoric acid. This is the kind of plantfood whish causes a strong and vigorous root growth and an early ripening of the crop. Crops which are short of phosphoric acide—and many of our Canadian sails are showing a deeided shortage in thisconstituent ent —do not ripen within the growing season at their disposal. In fact, if the shortage is very marked, they make poor root growth, and grain is not well filled, the fruit of whatever sort is poor in color and ancipid taste. The constituent about which we have been hearing a great deal during war time is potash. The chief duty of potash is to hasten the laying down of starch in the fruit or grain and to give strength to the growing corn stalk or straw of small grain. The point might well be emphasized at this time that potash is an ab- solutely essential constituent of plant - food. Some over -zealous people have allowed their enthusiasm to lead them into grievous error when they have said at times that our crops pan get along without potash. Crops can no more get along without potash than they can without water. Many soils are fairly well supplied with soil. The value of manure depends mainly upon • two points. First, the kind of food provided the livestock, and second, the caro given the man- ure. If the livestock is fed a supply of highly concentrated rich food, the manure is consequently rich in the. elements of plantfood. If, on the other hand, the livestock is living on a bare maintenance ration, the man- ure will be of lowest feeding value. Average farm manure which is fairly well stored carries to the ton 10 to 15 pounds of nitrogen, 5 to 9 pounds of phosphoric acid and frons 9 to 14 pounds of potash. If the manure is exposed to rain and snow over half of this plantfood, especially the nitro- gen and phosphoric acid, is lost by leaching. Well -kept manure is relatively strong in nitrogen and potash; but weak in phosphoric acid, This is natural since the animal removes this constituent of plantfood in order to build up its bone. As a consequence,t manure will produce great stalk growth, but sometimes produces too much straw growth for the good of the grain crop. Valuable results have been obtained by balancing livestock manure with acid phosphate. When this is done•40 or 50 pounds of acid phosphate should be applied to the soil for every ton of manure that is applied. That this is profitable is evi- denced by thefollowing results: Ohio Experiment Station—"Cover- ,ing a period of 13 years the average increased production from soil treat- ed with stall maniere and acid phos- phate over yard manure was: Corn, 15.27 bus.; wheat, 6.18 bus.; hay, 1,840 pounds;" Pennsylvania Experiment Station— "By the addition of acid phosphate to manure at a cost of $5.95, the gain over untreated manure Was $23.74." Indiana Experiment Station—"The addition of 200 pounds of acid phos- phate to a, six ton application of man- ure per acre per rotation of corn, wheat, and clover has produced addi- tional crop increases valued at $14.98 and $21.44 respectively" • kept in mind, it would avoid a lot of mistaken ideas and soxne frauds. -Similarly, calcium sulphate, or land jalaeter, is not fertilizer, although it can be applied for some time to the ground for a profit. Calcium sue phate; gypsum or land plaster, has the power • to let loose potash and other plantfoods from the soil. There- fore fora time the farmer can aPPly land plaster at a profit, However, he should be very careful not to con- tinue the practice indefinitely, be- cause he is treating; his soil as he would his bank account if he continu- ally wrote checks upon it and neg- lected to reimburse the funds at his disposal. The final day of reckoning comes and comes swiftly if such a stimulant as land pater is used and used continuously. Someone asks, "Are not fertilizers stimulants, too?" We answer, "Not by any means." Fer- tilizers are carriers of precisely the same plantfood as is supplied by man- , ere. This plant feral may be in a more concentrated form, but is neverthe- less the same e:esential food, nitro- gen, the plant grower, phosphoric acid the plant ripener, and potash the plant strengthener. When you apply fertilizers you apply food. When you apply a soil corrector and soil stimu- , hint, you correct a soil reaction in one ease and in the other case ]et loose a supply of essential plantfood with- out making any addition thereto. The next article will discuss the question of how to know what to use, and the sources of plantfood. (To be continued.) Male birds are seriously injured in appearance by having their combs frozen and it not only causes the bird to suffer but injures its value as a breeder, at least until the comb and wattles are healed. On very cold nights valuable male birds can be • protected by placing them in barrels covered with burlap. The heat from the body of the bird is enough to raise the temperature of the barrel and this protects. the bird's comb. Combs are more easily frozen or frost -batten when they become wet while the birds are drinking. Some breeders place a wooden float lin the water pail with a hole cut through the float from which the birds can drink. This keeps the wattles of the male from becoming wet. An ointment that is recommended for frost-bitten .combs consists of kerosene oil, three parts by weight; lard, tn;.a parts; quinine, one part. Rub this ointment on the comb every day until the frost bitten parts arc cured. It takes con- siderable time to treat birds in this manner but with exhibition stock and valuable breeders it is worth the trouble. Often when the.combs of the birds are easily frozen it means that the house is not warm enough. It may be damp or the birds may be compelled to roost too close to the windows. Birds that are reduced in vitality from overcrowding or poor feeding methods ane the .most apt to have frozen or frost-bitten combs. The strong healthy bird can resist con- siderable cold if it is placed in a dry house where there are no draughts and properly fed. • 3aselarad G The next source of plantfood is fertilizers. For many years the ques- tion of fertilizers has engaged the attention of the older agricultural sections of the' world. In fact, its importance has- become so great to the more thickly populated centres potash, but if intensive agriculture I that an investigation within the last is to proceed in Canada and largest ten years showed that in France over profits are to accrue to the farmer I 50 per cent. increase in crop yield and gardener from the production of was credited to the proper use of maximum crops, he must see to it that the crops have a sufficient sup- ply of potash, which is a necessary plant food to produce increased yields. A shortage of potash is al - fertilizers. Like things were claimed for the proper use of fertilizers in Germany and elsewhere. Hall of Rothamsted, said:—"The great factor in increased crop production (,in Great ways shown ,in poor sprawling weak- Britain) has been the introduction of ly stalks and straw, and in poorly fertilizers and 'purchased feeding filled kernels. stuff's. As soon as you can introduce The first great source of plantfood on a farni some extraneous source of is the soil. In this great storehouse fertility you can raise the .standard of production." That fertilizers have been effective itt raising this • standard of produc- tion, in various of the older States, in England, and other prominent European countries is shown by their record of crop • yields, but this in- crease in crop yields has been made only when necessity demanded more food for the unit of• land, bigger and better yields per acre. This fact as the essential reason why intensive agriculture is a timely' subject for Canada. Various things have *been called fertilizers, which are not actually plantfoods. For instance, some writ- ers still persist in calking lime a fer- tilizer. Nosv, it is a well known fact that the plant does take a certain amount of calcium for its food, but no one has ever yet shown that the plant may not be able to get its suf- ficient supply of calcium from clay. Lime, therefore, is not essentially a plantfood;. but is a soil corroctos. We believe; if this clear distinction were nature has placed original supplies of nitrogen, phosphoric acid. and potash. Necessarily these supplies vary with the different types of soitl. For instance, sandy soils are relative- ly short of all three important plant constituents. This does - not mean that a sandy soil is not profitable to work. Indeed, it is quite otherwise. The ease with which sandy soils drain, makes then, early. Further- more, the mechanical ease with which they work makes them desirable soils, especially for the growing of crops that esquire constant cultivation, However, the successful fanner or gardener operating a sandy soil must proceed; in full knowledge .of the natural limitations of the storehouse that his crops feed upon. A limestone soil has a medium small supply of nitrogen, a relatively short simply of phosphoric acid and a medium auppl"y of potash. It is usually sweet in its reaction and res- ponds readily to judicious fertiliza- tion. The cow must be hi proper condi- tion to go through the work of mak- ing a good production record, whether for seven days, thirty days, ninety days or one year. Few breeders of dairy cattle realize what condition means in making a great production record. It is often the extra few pounds of flesh and reserve energy that means the breaking of a world's record for milk and butter -fat pro- duction and places some breeder on the highest pinnacle of fame. It is difficult to define exactly just how to put on this extra flesh and bring the cow safely through her calving per- iod, blit it is seen only when cows begin their official tests as vigorous and well -fleshed as skillful feeding can make thele. Condition, as mean- ing capable of maximum production, is necessary before a phenomenal re- cord may be looked forward to in the coming testa The finest fleet that ever sailed in any country is the fleet of plows, tractors, harrows and seeders that will shortly put out into the fields. God -speed this fleet! It goes out in peace; it battles for human happi- ness.

Lesson XL The Cities of Refuge— Joshua 20- Golden Text, Matt.5: 7. "Cities of refuge," The ancient custom, widespread throughout the east, sanctioned the law of blood re - verge, If a man was leilled it was the right and duty of his kinsfolk to seek out the murderer and put hila to death. Under such conditions no trial was likely to be held and no dis- tinetion was made between accidental and intentional killing, "Whose shed- dali man's blood, by man shall his blood be shed." See Gen., 9: 6 and compare Exna. 21: 23, and Deut. 10. 21. The rigor and frequent injustice of this law were partially relieved (1) by allowing the penalty for a life taken to be paid in money, and (2) by recognizing the altar, or sanctu- ary as a place of asylum, where the fugitive was safe from his pursuers, at least until he had a fair trial. See the provision in Exod. 21: 12-14. The money ransom was permitted in He- brew law only in exceptional cases (compare Num, 35: 31-32 and Exod. 21:28-32). The right of asylum was limited to those guilty of accidental homicide (Exod. 21:13, Deut. 19: 4-5). In the comparatively lawless conditions of those days, the provi- sion of cities of refuge, easily access- ible' in all parts of the country, was in the interests of humanity and jus- tice. "Whereof I spake unto you by the hand of Moses." See Num. 35: 9-34 and Deut. 19:1-13. "Unawares and unwittingly." Such an accident is described in Exod. 21: 13 as an act of God. If the man who kills his neighbor has not done it intentionally, or been guilty of neg- ligence, he should go free, or if there has been negligence; as in the case quoted in Exod. 21:28-32, he should pay the money penalty (that as, in fold English, the bloodwit). A case of killing unawares is described in Deut, 19:5. It is probable that at first every altar was recognezed as an asylum of refuge, or at least every altar I where there was a sufficient number of priests to establish and enforce that right. It is noteworthy that the six . cities here mentioned were all Levitical cities (Num. 35, 6), where, therefore, there were sanctu- aries and communities of priest-. The altar is especially mentioned in Exod. 21:14, and it was to the altar in Jerusalem that Joab fled when he feared the vengeance of King Solo- mon (1 Kings 2: 28-29). "Shall stand at the entering of the gate." The cities were all surrounded by walls. Inside the gate was an open square or market, a place of public concourse, where the elders of the city sat to administer judgment. Compare Ruth 4: 12-; Neh. 8: 1. The manslayer who seeks refuge shall first "declare his cause" before the elders. They shall receive him into the protection of the city and he shall dwell there until arrangements are made for his trial. These arrange- ments were in the hands of "the con- gregation," that is, originally, a body representative of the city or tribe to which the man belonged, and, later, representative of all Israel. The cities appointed east and west of Jordan were tin each case situated respectively in the north, middle and south of the country, so that no one seeking refuge would have very far to go. "Kadesh," in Galilee, in the country of the tribe of Naphtali, was an old Canaanite town and sanctuary, about three miles west of the north- ern end of -the waters of Merom. It is often spelled "Kadesh." "Sheehera," in the hill country of Ephraim, is represented by the modern town of Kedesh, and 49 miles north of "He- bron." East or Jordan "Beier" is probably identical with Bozrah (Jer. 48: 24), and was sometimes inchuded in the land of Moab. "S,amoth in i Gilead" is called Ramoth-Mizpah in 13: 26. It was probably on or near the site of the modern Es -salt. "Go- lan" in the north gave its name in; later centuries to the province of Gaulanitis, now called Jaulan. It is very interesting to watch the sincere and intelligent seeking after justice, in all social relations, which is manifest lin the ancient Jewish law and custom. Justice was to the Jew the will and the law of God. His throne was itself the high court of judgment (Psalm 7: 6-9; 9: 7-8). Making Money Via the Maple Candy Line. In a certain city known to the writ- er, there is a candy store which makes and sells more than 100 var- ieties of maple candy, producing the combinations by the use of Jersey cream, chocolate and, -nuts. This was very profitable before cane and beet sugars became so scarce and expen- sive. Over in the White Mountain resort country, across the line, sever- al farm families with huger orchards have also learned the splendid profits in a sugar crop sold as candy, though they snake only maple drops and maple creams. They usually sell this maple candy, packed in attractive boxes, at thirty-five to fifty cents a pound. Summer sales to tourist's I automatically devei.oped a parcel - post trade. The opportunity for sugar orchard owners in making candy. is a big one. Maple sugar in itself is a sandy; all that is needed is to pat it up in candy form. The two -ounce cakes are al- ways popular, Wafers of the pure sugar, put up in boxes or sold in bulk, bring a much better price than palled sugar. More elaborate candies de- pend upon the skill ! and enthusiasm of the women folk. .lost of the nna- terials, including nut, can bo pro- duced on the farm.
