This Concrete Root Cellar Costs Less Than Wood and is Much More Durable Cement is particularly adapted to the con- struction of Root Cellar floors and walls. Experience proves that for the farmer, Con- crete is superior to wood in every point of comparison. Concrete permits of a 'desirable degree of coolness without freezing. '''here is no question as to its durability. Concrete lasts, not for years, but for ages; and needs no repair. Anyone who has scooped, vegetables from the old plank floor will appreciate the fact that Concrete offers a smooth, continuous surface with no projecting plank ends or nails to damage the scoop or raffile the temper of the scooper.

A Close Call. George Clark of AshfleId was cut- ting straw with a gasoline engine out-. fit last Saturday, when bis smock got caught in the draft of the cutting.box. Ile had a narrow escape from serious injury., and as if; woe, his smock, vest and undergarments were torn oft him. .Had it not been for the pre- sence of mind of Bari Cunningham, who promptly cut Mr. Clark away from the shaft, .he might have fared much than he did. Wald h SALLOW SKIN Liver Spots, Phtiples, Dark Circles 'Under The Eyes. WHY MEAT IS DEAR. Dr. RuLherfor'd, veterinary director- general and live stock commissioner, in hie annual report sounds a note of warning as to the future of the live stock industry, which throws light ori one of the causes of the high coet of living, Dr, Rutherford says that production of meat in this country ie. notkeeping up with the demand ; that the country's meat export trade le diminishing, and bids fair to disap- pear altogether, and that imports of meat from the United States, the Antipodes and the Argentine are daily becoming a bigger factor. Until very recently it bad appeared as if Canada would always have an abundant supply of live stock of all kinds, Circumstances have, however, brought about a great and serious change. Although many of the new- comers in western Canada are on the land, few of them are devoting any at- tention to animal husbandry, and a considerable time is likely to elapse before they are compelled by a gradu- al exhaustion of the soil to turn to mixed farming and systematic produc- tion of commercial live stock. For some time, therefore, the majority of these people will themselves be con- sumers instead of producers of meat. "The continued augmentation of our city population," says the report, "has also largely increased the con- suming public. Further, the habits and tastes of the people have altered and the general prosperity has brought about a higher standard of living resulting in a greater per capita consumption of meat. It is certainly somewhat remarkable that in view of these conditions the general produc- tion of live -stock through the country as a whole, appears to have scarcely maintained a normal rate of increase. "For a number of years mutton from the Antipodes has been competing with that from Washington and Ore- gon in the British Coluriabia market, an occasional carload being shipped as far east as Alberta. During last win- ter, however, frozen mutton, as well as frozen rabbits, from Australia, have, been landed at our Atlantic seaports, and sold to Canadian consumers in Toronto and Montreal. ONTARIO'S ARABLE LANDS. The Toronto Telegram in calling at- tention to the land awaiting the set - tier in New Ontario, says :- Sixteen million acres of land -clay land, fat land, land that looks like cows standing knee-deep in clover, land that has been waiting since the dawn of history for the magic touch of man's hand that it might produce "some thirty, some sixty, some an hundred -fold." This land calls aloud for the real set- tler, not the blanket man who buys up claims and' scrip and gets his greedy hands on whole townships, but real settlers who want homes, who will labor for their homes, and who love their homes as only men can who have earned their all by the sweat of their brows. Sixteen million acres I And all these years every village, town and city in Ontario has worn a deep path to the railway station saying good-bye to the grown children, who could not pay sixty, seventy or eighty dollars an acre "down at the front" and so they passed over the path to the sta- tion and were seen on the old streets no more. Yet all these years sixteen million empty acres called in vain that the feet of the young men might be turned northward. To -day farm land in old Ontario has advanced until eighty and one hundred dollars an acre is asked for choice farms, and this land is going up in value. Do our people know, do they believe, that land as good ae any now sold for $100 an acre is right with- in twenty-four hours' run of Toronto at fifty cents an acre ? Grain Shipments. For five days ending November 30, grain was being shipped out of Fort William and Port Arthur at the rate of a million bushels a day, the total being 8,539,463 bushels, Compared with the same period last year, the increase is one million bushels, the figures for last year peing 7,520,880 bushels. In both years the same number of boats were loaded in these five days. A DOLLAR'S WORTH THAT IS WORTH WHILE. The enterprising management that has made The Daily Globe one of the leading newepapers on the continent, has increased the size of the Weekly. Globe and Canada Farm and added several new writers to the staff in order that it may keep 'pace with the progressive spirit that is permeating our urban and rural population, The mail service and great distances make it almost impossible for a large portion of the people to get the bene- fit of the splendidly equipped news and telegraph service of The Daily Globe. By this addition to the staff and. enlargement of the paper, the management of the Weekly Globe and Canada Farmer hope to compensate those who must be battened with a Caper once week,by givingthem all heep week's a news ibrief nd eon• preheneive form, thereby increaser the paper's modulates, interest and educative value. In order to get more people ac- quainted with it in the Weekly Globe and Canada Farmer are giving those who eubeoribe for one year before the 81s0 ,of Deosrtber 1911, a copy of "Daddy's Girl. which was d-eteribed ha these *alumna last week.
