They are one of the three greatest meat eating peoples in the world, Australia and the United States being the other two. High prices for meat are com- ing, The cost of food as well as its nutritive value should be' considered. Prof. James Long, the eminent British authority. recently addressed the following advice to the War Office; • ''Jam has three and a half times the energy value of butter, Ite value lies in its riclfnese in sugar—of whioh one- half its weight consists—in the miner- als present in the skins of fruits, in its laxative character and its mechani- cal aid to digestion. "The sugar of fruit has a remark- able effect on nutrition. Commercial sugar, if eaten too freely, causes irri- tation, acidity and other freaks of indigestion. "The most nutritious and useful varieties of jam are those made from plum, apricot, gooseberry and cur- rant, but a mixture of plum and apple etand at the head of the list. Jam should not be considered as a dainty but as an article of food." Dr. Frank Z. Shutt of Ottawa, Dominion Chemist, gives us the fol- lowing authoritative statement as to the great importance of vegetables, especially fresh or home grown. The importance in connection with small gardens in towns and cities is very apparent. It may be that a small garden will keep down the doctor's bills. "That many of the ills that flesh is heir to arise from indiscretions in diet is a fact that more of -us should re- alize—and the earlier in life the bet- ter, Many of us, and perhaps this applies especially to those who live in the city, eat too mucb. As a result, we get too stout as life advances and, what is still more serious, an extra. ordinary strain is put on certain of the• organs of the system in nature's ef- fort to get rid of the waste. Further, we who live more or less sedentary lives, eat too much meat; the man who sits at a desk all day long or stands behind a counter may work as hard as the navy or ploughman, but it is a different kind of work. It does not tall for the satne amount of strong food. There is no necessity to diet ourselves by formula or to weigh out what we should eat, but we ought to be guided to a cel tale extent in our eating by common eenee and the knowledge which science furnishes respecting the requirements of the body for the tnalnteuanee of the vital beat, the development of energy and the repair of tisane. "As city people We might •keep in better health and live more cheaply if We would eat lees meat and concen- tratedfoode and use more vegetables Chiropratic When the spine tat right the body le t ight.A Chiropra-tor will keep your epine right that you may have continual good health, If your health is already' poor a Gourseof Chiroprac• tic Spinal Ad'u tments ..illput one epintriight 1 s w y .1. A. VON, D.C,• Geaduate Chtrpracter station. "Freels vegetables are vastly super- ior to those that are wilted from keep- ing a day,or two, in succulence, crisp- ness and palatability. To be enjoyed at their best, vegetables must be eaten strictly fresh." Canada's Fire Losses. With a fire lose averaging over two million dollars per month, or sixty-seven thousand dollars per day, the fire situation in Canada has reached the stage where some etepe must be taken toward, ;die - covering the cause and evolving some means for a large reduct on of this annual toll. Fire commissioners agree that a large proporton of fires are of deliberately incendiary origin, that a still larger percentage are of uncon- sciously incendiary, and that a not inconsiderable number are the result of carelessness or neglect. The num- ber of fires resulting from causes beyond human control constitutes almost a negligible quantity in the year's total. How this situation should be handled is a difficult question. The law prescribes punishment for arson, but, under present conditions and with the machinery available, it is exceed- ingly difficult to secure convicting e ridence. The insurance companies being private corporations, cannot be expected to prosecute; unless the amount at issue is sufficiently large and the evidence is conclusive, it is cheaper for them to pay the loss than to contest its The police departments of our cities are not interested in fires unless it be shown that there are suspicious cir- cumstances surrounding the occur- rence. Even should this be demon• titrated, there are no trained men con- nected with the police forces qualified to thoroughly investigate the circum- stances. The Ontario legislature at ite:session in 1914 wooed an Act to appoint a fire marshal, whose duty it would be to study the question of the annual fire loss. ile would also have power to inveetigate•firee which were deemed of suspicious nature and to prosecute where necessary. No furth- er' action has yet been taken under this legislation, and the appointment of a fire marshal is still in obeyance, Selection Of Seed Potatoes. 1,OO1A'+'v',.t.4.:»+''rr +r,'G1W11+ !" .0 14 04 .01+;•414.01.4.0004)4 ,Q' '0' +1' " 64Va Wene14,'�' ra»' f Of all the factors in potato growing, selection of seed is by far the ,most important. Had we bred our Short. horn cattle as many of us have been in the habit of selecting and breeding our seed potatoes, we would now have no breed of Shorthorns. If we used only the culls and scrubs to breed from, our breeds of stock would soon run out. It bas been careful selection and the application of scientific prin. ciplee of breeding that has brought our pure bred live stock up to the pre- sent high standard. One reason why potatoes on many farms in this coun- try have degenerated is that tulle, screenings and smell potatoee have been planted. If no method of seleetion has hither- to been followed, the seed for this year's) crop will have to be taken from dee bin. Potatoes which are of media um eime. smooth, free from disease and true to the type of the variety being sown, should be selected, During the late summer or early autumn, when the vines are beginning to die down, the best and most vigorous hills should be marked by putting down a small stake or twig. The hills showing most vigour of vegetation will usually give the beet yield of tubere. When the crop le harvested, any poor hills among those marked should be 'db. carded and the rest sated for nett year's planting. One farmer doing illustration work for the Commtseion of Conservation planted potatoes thue selected and ordinary potatoes side by Bide. When harvested four; roWie from the eelected seed .yielded ten bushels per row, while the four rotes on either side of the ordinary seed yielded raven and one half bushels per row. This was a gain in yield of 83 per Cent. This method of seleotioia does not take much tttne and, as repeated' *Xs perimet is hate eho*n It -to be the means of substantial iler'eaee* in yield, it should be ,Moto generally pt'actised,••-P, O.
