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.

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, Toronto, Ont. 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. 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 00000 0.000000 0000000 0 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." GJO 00.00.0 000 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) Now is tits time when colonies should be given a hasty examination to de- termine which have died and which need female. and many colonies that would otherwise die can be saved it at- tended ttendeu to ru time. No rotary should be examined or its hive open' ti unless the day is clear and reasonnbb warm and should not be left open for a longer period than is absolutely necessary, and to closing the hive great cure should be exercised in replaeing tee packing that constituted the winter protection.
