FOR FLETCHER'S
CAST O R I A
INSURANCE IN CANADA.
According to the annual report of
the insurance branch of the Finance
Department, the fire losses in Canada
paid out by the companies last year
totalled $1,037,159, an increase of $664,-
766 as compared with 1910. The net
cash received in premiums was $20,572,-
182 an increase of nearly two millions, and
the gross amount at risk at the end of the
year was $2,277,968,950, an increase of
a little over 243 millions. Canadian
companies are away behind the British
companies in amount of Canadian busi-
ness, but a little ahead of the American
companies. The Canadian companies
paid out last year $3,614,462 for fire
losses, with $4,730,461 net cash income
on premiums and $548,614,82 at risk.
British companies paid $0,181,816 for
losses, with $11,199,301 received for
premiums and $1,270,037,077 at risk.
American companies paid out $2,235,-
881 for fire loss, with $4,642,420 net
premium income and $459,317,053 at
risk.
British companies are evidently cap-
turing the largest share of the new
business. During the year they in-
creased their total amount at risk by
127 millions as compared with an in-
crease of 46 millions by the Canadian
companies and 71 millions by the Am-
erican companies.
The total fire loss last year was the
largest since 1904 when the companies
paid out a total of $14,099,534.
Life insurance business shows a rap-
id growth during the year. The prem-
iums totalled $31,619,626, an increase
of $1,847,723 over 1910, while the am-
ount paid out in claims totalled $11,043,-
274, an increase of only $146,804. The
total amount of life insurance in force
at the end of 1911 was $950,413,333, or
nearly one billion dollars, on 1,335,047
policies. The increase in the total am-
ount in force during the year was $94,-
200,274, the new policies totalling 162,-
922.

Crop Outlook in Ontario.
The crop report of the Ontario Depart-
ment of Agriculture, just issued, con-
tinues to speak of the severity of last
winter and of backward conditions
generally. Fall wheat has suffered
considerably along with adjoining Stat-
es. In the fruit district many orchards
suffered damage, although reports from
the Niagara belt indicate promise of a
fair yield this year.
The Country Village Scores.
The country village still continues
to answer in the affirmative the ques-
tion asked nearly two thousand years
ago, "Can any good come out of Naz-
areth?" While the product of none
may measure up to the acme of perfec-
tion attained by the meek and lowly
Nazarene, yet it is the pride and glory
of many of the villages of .this land
that they have given to the country
some of its most eminent and public-
spirited men. Sir Charles Tupper, one
of our most eminent statesmen, first
saw the light of say in the hamlet of
Amherst, N. S. Sir Wilfrid Laurier,
one of our most brilliant premiers
claims the obscure village of St. Lin,
P. Q., as -bis birthplace. Sir Donald
Mann, the Empire builder, made his
mud pies at Acton, Ont. Jim Hill, the
king of railwaymen on the continent,
was a native of Rockwood, Ont., Ed-
ward Blake, regarded by many as our
greatest native-born Canadian, spent
his childhood at Cairngorm, Ont. J. P.
Mabee, whose loss is now so sincerely
mourned from the Atlantic to the Paci-
fic and whose life was cut short in the
heyday of his brilliant career, was
reared in Port Rowan, a wind-swept
village on the sandy shores and within
sight of the tossing waters of turbu-
lent Lake Erie.

IF THE LIVER IS LAZY
STIR IT UP BY THE USE OF
MILBURN'S LAXA-LIVER PILLS.
They stimulate the sluggish liver,
clean the coated tongue, sweeten the
breath, clean away all waste and poison-
ous matter from the system, and prevent
as well as cure all sickness arising from
a disordered condition of the stomach,
liver and bowels.
Mrs. Matthew Sullivan, Pine Ridge,
N.B., writes: -"I had been troubled with
liver complaint for a long time. I tried
most everything I could think of, but
none of then seemed to do me any good,
but when I at last tried Milburn's Laxa-
Liver Pills I soon began to get well again;
thanks to The T. Milburn Co. I would
not be without them if they cost twice
as much."
Milburn's Laxa-Liver Pills are 25 cents
per vial, or 5 vials for $1.00, for sale at
all dealers or mailed direct on receipt
of price by The T. Milburn Co., Limited,

ADVICE ON SUGAR BEETS.
Cultivation Points Found Good by the
Ohio Department of Agriculture.
Have good loam land. That which
raises the best corn Is the best to raise
beets.
Land must be deeply plowed. We
are after a root crop, not something
that grows above the ground.
Use plenty of seed. If you do not get
a good stand you will not get a good
crop Of beets.
Seed is cheap and is furnished by the
factories at cost price.
Roll the beets well. Roll again,
Watch the hand labor at the time
they are thinning and blocking the
beets. This is important.
Cultivate thoroughly. Do not stop at
any time. You cannot fire beets as you
can corn.
It Is the cultivation that puts the
sugar in the beets,
The German farmer says, "You have
to hoe in the sugar,"
The land must be thoroughly tilled -
not because beets will not stand more
water than corn, but because the band
labor costs so much that the farmer
sbould not run any risk on land that is
not well tiled.
Beets take a little more of the fertil-
ity from the land than corn. Accord-
ing to professor Hopkins, It takes 100
pounds of nitrogen, 18 pounds of phos-
phorus and 150 pounds of potassium
for a twenty ton crop of beets. The
fertility can be returned to the land by
plowing under the tops and feeding
the pulp to cows and putting the ma-
nure hack on the land.
Sugar itself is twelve parts of carbon
to one part of water chemically united.
Beets get the water from the rain
that falls upon the ground; get the car-
bou from the alr through the leaves.
Beets raised on clover sod, the land
of which has been thoroughly tiled,
could make easily twenty tons to the
acre.
Sugar companies now pay $4.50 for
beets testing 13 per cent and 331/2
cents for every 1 per cent additional.
The farmer should endeavor to in-
erease the yield of sugar in the beet.
This they can do by thorough cultiva-
tion.

DAIRY WISDOM.
Many bits of dairy wisdom
were spoken by Secretary Wil-
son of the United States depart-
ment of agriculture in his ad-
dress at the opening of the Na-
tional Dairy show in Chicago
recently. The following is an
extract from that address:
"When we make the most of
our time and acres we will sell
no cow feed to Europeans to
maintain their soil fertility and
reduce ours as we now do."

Making Use of Empty Cana.
If the housewife is using very muck
canned goods -store goods, we mean -
ask her to save all the empty cans.
You will find them very useful in the
garden.
Melt the tops and bottoms off and
tie a string around the remaining coils
of tin to keep them in shape. They
will be handy to use in place of flats.
Place a dozen or more of these cans
filled with soil on a Ward or in a shal-
low box in the window and plant
melon and cucumber seeds in them.
When the weather permits the hills
are prepared and the can with the
growing plant set out, then the string
is cut and the can relaxes, leaving
the dirt with the plants in the ground
without so much as breaking n root.
The can is then removed and used
elsewhere.
They are also valuable for potting
plants and covering cuttings. - Farm
Press.
Building Up the Soil.
Joseph I). Whig gives the sensible
advice to use limestone always to
build soils through the growth of the
clovers and alfalfa. The formula is in
this order: Keep up the lime content in
the soil; that will hold the clover and
alfalfa; plow under an occasional crop
of either with phosphate. Then your
soil will be strong for any crop.
Bees For Every Farm.
It is safe to say that every farm
could support at least a few hives of
bees. Nearly all parts of our country.
producehoney in sufficient quantities
to pay for the gathering. The amount
of honey that goes to waste every year
for want 01 bees to gather it is very,
large -ill fact, too large to estimate.
Honey Producers, Attention)
