B, ELJLIOTT, PUBLISHER AND PItOPLETOR THURSDAY, JUNE 19, 1913. Iteafforestation in China. Whit© the Chinese are good agricul- f eii is and have achieved marvels in ;preserving the fertiltiy of the soil for votlntless ages, they have, says the Springfield Sepubii'.ae, done much less for the protection of the forests. aid it is significant that the Governor of the Province of Shantung, Chow Tsz Ch'i, has applied to the Amercian director of forestry in the Philippines, Maj Ahern, for permission to send as many Chinese students as possible to the Los Banos forestry school. One Chinese student was admitted to the school a year or two ago and was doing very well. Majo Ahern has that the school is ready to accept two more students from other parts in China. The neglect of the forests is ascribed to the peculiar condition of life in China, where the struggle for existence is acute, and the great problem is to make every avail- able foot of ground yield as much food as possible. Forestry is too slow and too big an undertaking for individuals, and the government has never counted such economic undertakings a part of its duty. But the republic has learned from the West the importance of forest ABOUT DOGS. The dog is a carnivorous quadruped and comes in many sizes and shapes. His name is derived from the latinword "Canis" meaning "dog". We intended to start with the greyhound, but we are afraid we cannot keep up with him, as he is a very rapid old dog. Instead let us discuss the dachshund. The dachshund, a German creation is a lazy looking specimen of a dog. He has the longest span between abutments of anything known to man except the Suspension Bridge, Pat him on the head and he will wiggle his tail five minutes later. Dachshunds do not thrive in small flats. That is because going out of one door of a room they often meet themselves coming in another and the frequent collision causes soften- ing of the brain. A bulldog is a fat, bow-legged creat- ure with a painful looking face. The shortness of his limbs is due to the fact that Noah disliked the look of his ori- ginal ancestor that he refused to admit him to the ark, and his long swim to Arasat caused rheumatism, which drew the legs to the present size. His bored and blazed expression is attributed to the fact that an ancestor played golf regularly three times a week. Dogs sometimes take a strong aver- sion to water, so that the mere mention of it makes them mad. You can tell when a dog is mad by letting him bite you. If the bite causes him no trouble you will know the dog is only acting in a spirit of fun. A mad dog should not associate with children, as it annoys and irritates them. Many editors keep mad dogs in their office. They set them on poets who call and insist on reading them on press day. reserves and the necessity of govern -I mental action to secure them, and half a century or so should see vast areas of now barren mountains covered with trees. Flowers in the Home. This is the season when flowers are cheap and from now until frost the house may be kept bright and cheery with gay -colored blooms at a minimum expense. English folk realize the value of fresh flowers in the home and rare indeed is the English drawing -room of any pretentiousness that is not supplied the year round with seasonable posies, no matter what the expense. Humbler drawing -rooms usually have fresh flowers over the week -end at least, and in the country, garden and wild flowers are kept in guest and living rooms. It is the charming duty of the mistress of the house, each morning, to fill her vases and designate their location in the various rooms. The flowers are brought in by a gardener and heaped en a paper -spread table in the morning - room. The housewife - or some youth- ful member of the family appointed to the pleasarft task sorts out the blos- soms, snips off the stems and fills the row of empty vases and jugs, also placed on the table after their bath in the hot suds. Lilacs, daisies, June roses, poppies, golden -rod, asters and flaming red salvia all come in their turn here in America, and in between are the friendly pansies, nasturtiums, the sweet pees and other garden flowers, easily raised and wonderfully decora- tive for indoor use. Skin Soft as a Child's. "I was a great sufferer from eczema and salt rheum for years," writes Mr. John W. Naas, Lunenburg, N. S. "Five years ago three boxes of Dr. Chase's Ointment cured me and the old trouble never returned. My skin is soft as a child's now, and I shall always say a good word for this Ointment." The temperance convention for Mani- toulin, held at Mindemoya on Friday, nominated by Rev. W. E. Wilson, of Little Current, as a temperance cani- date for the legislature. A Huron county pioneer, in the per- son of Wm. Fraser, died at his home in the village of Clifford in his 74 year. He was born in Banff, Scotland, and came to Canada when 8 years old, sett- ling in the village of Ayr. If Your Back Hurts You YOUR MONEYS ARE RESPONSIBLE ■ MR.

Sold by Druggists, price 75c. Take Hall's Family Pills for constipa- tion. Whatever is, is Wrong. "The weather is cold when we'd fain have it hot," the husbandman sourly complains; "old Jupiter Pluvius ought to be shot; for when we need sunshine it rains. The snows of the winter don't help us at all, but stir up our anger and scorn; they ought to be sent in the sum- mer and fall, to help out the oats and the corn. The sweltering weather we have in July don't do us ietittle of good; it ought to be sent us when Christmas I is nigh, and then we could save coal and wood. Oh yes," says the farmer, "my corn's looking fine, but ere long a cyclone will come, and put the kibosh on these green fields of mine, and knock the whole farm out of plumb. And if preadventure, a cyclone should fail to come with its soul -stirring sound, there'll be a big tempest of lightning and hail, to smash all my grain to the ground. I look for hot winds every morn when I rise, to burn up the crops till they're black, and maybe a dornick will fall from the skies and cave in the roof of my shack." The farmer then cranked his big tourist car, and in the front seat settled down, and lit an imported Havana cigar, and went on a joy ride to town, WALT. MASON. Decreasing Death Rate in New York. Notwithstanding the fact that the population of New York State has enormously increased of late years, and despite the further fact that the greater part of this population is closely crowd- ed in urban centers, the death rate of the State shows a gratifying decrease, more particularly in the case of very young children. Since 1385 the popu- lation of the State has increased from 5,800,000 to 9,300,000, but during the same time the general death rate has fallen from 20 per thousand to 15.4 per thousand. Still more gratifying is the fact that the deaths of children under five years has dropped from 37.4 per cent. of the entire number of deaths to 25.04. Childhood mortality has delined from three -eights of the total to one quarter of the total. A. much less agreeable feature in New York's vital statistics is found in the fact that 25 years the number of deaths froth Lancer was 2,000 a year while in 1912 the number was 8,234. While the population of the State has not quite doubled, deaths from cancer, have quadrupled. Scientiests now tell us that cancer is contagious and facts seem to justify the assertion. It is definitely announced that R.

The watering cart made its first ap- pearance on Thursday morning. It did not come too soon. The promenade concert given in the rink on Friday evening last, by the lacrosse club, was very well attended, and proved to be a good success. The Wingham Fireman went to Galt Thursday to take part in hore races at the Carnival in that place. We wish them success. Mr. John Hanna is improving the ap- pearance of his store by a fresh coat of paint. The lacrosse boys went over to Har- riston on Thursday to play a match with the club of that place. Mr. George McKenzie has commenced excavating for his new block of stores on his property next to the town hall. The members of the junior football club drove over to Bluevale, on Satur- day last and played a game with the juniors of that place. The game was a draw. Friday last was Decoration Day, and there was a very good turnout of the members of the C.O.F., I.O.O.F., L.O.L. and S. of S. Societies of the town. The procession left the market square about three o'clock, headed by the band, and proceeded to the cemetery where they spent a couple of hours de- corating the graves of departed breth- ren; returning to town about five o'clock. The Maydr having proclaimed a half -holiday a large number were in attendance. Messrs. D. M. Gordon, J. A McLean, John Neelands and R.

A quart a day will work wonders. When taken hot it is agentle laxative. Boiled milk, allowed to cool before drinking, corrects dysentery. As a body builder milk in addition to meals is a splendid article. HOUSEHOLD SUGGESTIONS. When ironing lace, lay it on a Turk- ish towel and press the lace smoothly on the wrong side. Chloride of lime in a weak solution will take out peach stains. Linens should always be soaked a long time before washing. Stains will come out much better. Pineapple juice is said to be the best tonic any person of poor digestion can have. Acid burns should be drenched with water and washed with a solution of baking soda and water. Cultivate the throwing away habit. Your garret will benefit, also your nerves. Grimy feathers can be given an alco- hol bath, after which they are shaken until dry. The most obstinate coffee stains can be removed by a solution of lukewarm water and the yolk of an egg. Ugly creeks and splits in furniture can sometimes be filled with beeswax so that they will hardly Show. Sun your mattresses as often as you can. Put them out on the porch roof in the hot sun. This will keep them fresh and clean. To make a candle burn lour, put salt around the wick, under the flame. It will give steady light and will burn all night. If a coat of thin white paint is put on the ordinary Wire screen, 'those inside may look out, but Outsiders cannot see into•the room.

Lower the temperature of an oven considerably after the roast has been in 20 minutes and the juice will be re- tained. Miss Violet Swift, teacher in Niagara Falls, N. Y., High School, was drowned by the capsizing of a canoe in the Wel- land River, near Cpippawa. The Conservative convention at Owen Sound selected Colin Cameron, of Owen Sound, to contest the north riding of Grey at the coming by-election to fill the vacancy caused by the resigna tion of Hon.

VALUE OF OIL AND COTTON SEED MEALS The chemical composition of linseed oil meal and cottonseed meal given in terms of digestible nutrients is as follows: Linseed oil meal, protein 30.2. pounds, carbohydrates 32 pounds, fat 6.9 pounds; total nutrients 77.7 pounds; cottonseed meal, protein 37,0 pounds, carbohydrates 21.4 pounds, fat 9.6 pounds; total nutrients, 80.6 pounds. It will be observed that the chemical composition of these two feeds is much the same, says Eloard's Dairy- man-that airyman-that is, they are rich in protein and fat, cottonseed meal containing a little more total nutrients than oil- meal and being richer in both protein and fat. Linseed oil meal hue other qualities to commend itself to the feeder than simply its composition. Experiments have shown that whet. atnituale are kept upon dry feeds 0 handful to a pnnnd of oilmen1 daily to each animal helps keep the digestive tract in good condition -that is, it helps keep the bowels loose, Where silage, roots or any succulent feed is fed oilmeal is not particularly necessary from this standpoint. Cottonseed meal, as shown by its composition, is at splendid feed and can often be used when there is a lack of protein. One to two pounds daily The pure bred Holstein bull Jo- hanna Korndyke De Kol F., here- with shown, heads the herd at the Minnesota Insane asylum. For sev- eral years the policy of introducing pure blood and testing out the loaf- ers has been followed at the insti- , tution. The result has been that more than twice as much milk Is produced from a herd numbering only half as many cows as under the former haphazard methods. The present herd is composed of pure bred and grade Holsteins and for four months averaged over four gallons of milk per cow per day. may be incorporated In the ration to advantage, especit4ly- with farm grown grains. It is somewhat constipating and does not work into a ration as well as linseed oil meal when there is no succulence. Cottonseed meal has a tendency to produce a firmer bodied butter. If fed in too large quantities the butter wilit l have a tallowy appearance. On the other hand. linseed oil meal bas a tend- ency to produce a soft butter. When there is an abunclunc•e of alfalfa and clover it is somewhat' doubtful wheth- er very much. if any, of either of these feeds can be used to advantage. for, as 0 rule, where protein Is not heeded and the dietetic effect upon the ani- mal's digestion is not required they are rather more expensive than some other feeds which may be selected. A mixture consisting of 600 pounds ground corn and cob meal and 200 .pounds cottonseed meal • will go very well with an allowance of thirty pounds of corn silage and a liberal al- lowance of alfalfa and clover hay giv- en daily to each animal. One pound of this grain mixture to each three and a half to four pounds of average testing milia produced should give very good satisfaction. We believe, however, that if the corn and cob meal could be mixed with some lighter feed, like distillers' grains, brewers' grain or bran, it would give as good results, if not better, for the feeds we have. mentioned would light- en the grain portion of the ration, which we believe is of more impor- tance, since there are sufficient ele- ments of every kind in the other feeds to meet the requirements of the ani- mal. Preventing Sore Shoulders. The best cure for sore shoulders is never to cause them, says W. P. Pur- due, Work sanely and give the col- lars and harness proper attention, then sore shoulders will be avoided. One of the first things to do at the begiiq Hing of a season of hard work 1s tb see that all collars fit their wearers comfortably. Then keep the parts of the collars that touch the skin clean and smooth or free from rough places such as are formed by accutru lotions , of sweat and dirt that hire dried on the leather.
