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.

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
