FRANK TERRACE, ADDRESSING THE Good Roads Convention at Tacoma, Washington, gave the following enthusiastic testimony in favor of good roads : "I am a cabbage grower. I haul my produce to the sauerkraut factory at South Seattle.Before the road over which I travel was built, I had to get up at 4 o' clock in the morning to start on my journey. The limit of the load I could haul with a team of 1800 pound horses was 2500 pounds, and after visiting the factory I would arrive back at my home late in the evening. But look at the difference now that a permanent hard surface has been laid down. I start on my trip about 8 o'clock and need only a team weighing 1400 pounds to haul a load of 5000 pounds of cabbage, which is double my previous capacity. And, best of all, I find on my return to the house early in the afternoon, that I have finished the day's work without the horses having turned a hair.". They prevent your road taxes being spent in patching up roads that never will be good roads. They aro the cheapest kind of roads at the end of ten, fifteen or twenty -years because they practically eliminate the cost of upkeep. They enable you to haul bigger loads with less effort and less wear and tear on horses and vehicles. They increase land values, better conditions generally, and decrease the cost of living. Write for, free, Good Roads literature, and learn how good roads will benefit you. Concrete Roads Department Canada Cement Company Limited 806 Herald Building, Montreal Spread of the Truth. To the EJaar,. The light is breaking, There has been a wonderful change in medical opinion tie to the medicinal or food va- lue of alcohol in the last twenty yeasts, Twenty year's ago it was almost uni- versally used in pneumonia, diphtheria, fevers and all debilitating diseases. Now we know that instead of being a stimulant it is eedative; instead of being a food it is poisonous, and in- stead of helping a patient aver a dang- er spot, it lessons his chance of recov- ery. In my judgement, the greatest med- ical discovery in recent times is the fact that alcohol whether in the form of beer, wine or spirits, lessens the power of the body to defend itself against the germs of disease. Truth make very slowly against ig- norance and prejudice but truth al- ways prevails and when that truth permeates the public mind, we will have a healthier, happier- and more prosperous people. Some time ago I went to a hospital and investigated the amount of alco- holic liquors given her patient, and I found that the quantity was just about of that which had been given ten years ago. Recent investigations in the hospitals of old London show that there also the amount of intoxicating liquors prescribed has fallen off won- derfully. Surely the truth is spread- ing and so we take courage and do our best to hasten the glad day when the poisoning of the innocents shall cease. By the word innocents 1 mean tha babe that is poisoned before it is' born so that it is handicapped all its life with weakness of mind and body and often something worse than weakness. The young may who takes his first drink is generally innocent of the wrong he is doing himself and his country. If he knew the truth he would not touch it on any account. Tnen the hostess who 'entertains her guests with drink is generally innocent of the harm she is doing. The great creed of the people is a knowledge of the truth and we plead that everyone who knows the truth will do what he or she can to spread it. (Sad.) EH.ARNOTT, M. B., M. 0. P.

In the advertised statements of a bank you will ,read something like this: Capital $100.000 Surplus and undivided profits 60,000 Which means, of course, that in ad- dition to the paid capital employed in the business the bank has earned a 0 surplus fund available for use that serves as a sort of insurance. Surplus is earned capital. Carried as surplus it is really capital ; and increases by so mueh the resources of the bank. Every person, like the bank, should carry a considerable surplus, In addition to his working capital, which includes his physical, mental and moral resources, he should accum- ulate a fund of p energy. Because there will come It time of stress when all the powers of body. mind and spirit will be taxed to the utmost and he must perforce draw on him surplus fund. A panic tests the bank. And so the emergency tests 'the man, If the resources of the bank are available it will weather the financial storm. If when trials, difficulties, temptations, come to the man he is strong in body, mind and soul there is a surplus for the crisis he will come (inside O000OODOOODoot)oc0000i. 1�?OC©CoQE33QOoom0000noca000coo�rle`: -HANOVER PLACE, WINNIPEG the city limits, along the Sharp Boulevard and Avenue.., each side.)

The manufacture of clove apples, common In the days of our grandmoth- ers, is very simple. You can take an apple, the rounder and sounder and bigger the better, and into it stick cloves as thickly as possible, with only the heads showing and forming a close continuous surface all over. Put it in a drawer or on n mantelpiece or. whatnot, and time will do the rest. The clove apple becomes dry and cu- riously hard, maintains its form per- fectly and acquires an approximation of immortality—if carefully protected, •nf course, from accidents and children. The latter, if memory serves, were wont to annoy the grandmothers of clove apple days by decapitating the cloves or, If especially mischievous, by working at one of them till it came out whole. Either achievement, when dis- covered, ns it alwaps was soon, caused indignant oratory always and "wrong stories" not infrequently. The exact purpose of the clove ap- ple, whether It was valued as a surto or as the source of .a pleasant, spicy odor, the present commentator does not remember, If he ever knew. In value, however, it ranked well up with the shells brought from foreign strands by seafaring husbands and sous, and both were about equally durable.—Naw York Times. Grand Trunk Railway System.

Human life, and its preservation from disease, impairment of usefulnees and its lose of producing power, is the most fundamental of all subjects of conservation. Safety on the farm is as important as anywhere else. "daily accidents are caused by the careless handling of machinery or lack of proper inspection before machines are put into commis- sion, a The future well-being of Canada da de- pends on the loyal acceptance by the people of the principles which aim at the profitable and scientific develop- ment and conservation of her natural resources. seeeeperseetne Only a few years have passed since it first dawned upon a people who had revelled in plenty for a century that the richest patrimony is not proof against constant and careless waste ; that a nation of spenders must take thought for its morrow or come to poverty. s interest ini If an employer shows Isis the supplying of safety appliances and in the education of his employees in the taking of precautions to prevent accidents, it will not be long before definite results will be apparent all along the line of help from superin- tendent to apprentice, To be consistent, the man who sits back and expecte that nature will re- place the burned forest might also ex- pect the supply men and the mechanics to replace, free of cost, . that which they had supplied or produced and which, through carelessness, bad been destroyed by fire. Let us remember that the conserva- tion of our natural resources, though the greatest problem of to -day, is yet but part of another and greater pro- blem of today, is yet but part of another and greater problem—the pro• blem of national efficiency.—Ex.

The farmer may have sufficient area and grow the right kind of crops, yet not be successful, ow ing to the poor quality of his en• tire business. Poor clops that du not !`ay the cost of production and the feeding of these to nu productive live stuck 111'0 Cou mon 0110508 of failure. This characteristic of unsuccessful farming attracts much public tit tendon. Such farms are uu- aprofitable largely through igno- rance of indifference on ttie part a. of the operator, Coder good management 'they can generally be made successful, The improper orgtirrization of it large farm limits its possibili- ties just as area limits the small farm. Single crops or single live stock enterprises seldom utilize farm labor to its maximum. By having several crops there is not only better distribution of labor, but the chances of total loss from crop failures are lessened. Fortunately, corn, oats and wheat utilize the farmer's time pretty thoroughly through the growing season. In some parts of this country certain crops that need -labor only a part of the year may be so profitable that the farmer can afford to be idle the rest of the year. However, these are the exceptions. Most crops are not profitable enough to permit any such practice. Idle horses and machinery are nearly as expensive as idle men. If the working equipment can all be kept busy on paying enterprises llos j success is almost assured- •vvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvy 4 4 1 1 1 8' PtG D TheArmy Worm in. Huron County • The army worn is getting close to Clinton. It has arrived at the farm of Mr, Henry Livermore on the Lon- don Road about a mile from town and commenced on a fdald of oats. A burry up call came into town and some helpers were soon out to help save the crop and destroy the pest. At the farms of Thos. Lane and Thos. Coleman, 4 miles from Bruce - field, the worms were discovered in thousands in the oat fields. They had stripped a large area completely there before being noticed, but as soon as they were found farmers gathered from miles around and notwithetand- ing that it was Sunday, ripped off their coats dug furrows, oiled trenches and roads and went at the pest with shovels. Thousands were killed and late at night the farmers were still working, The battle is continuing and the men of Huron will check the worms quickly or know the reason why. The army worm has invaded Hu- ron County, On Saturday the pest was discovered in a field of oats on the farm of Percy Monk on the Mill Road Tuckersmith and Mr. Monk lost no rime in fightiug the invader, proceed- ing at once to plow furrows around his field.
