business for hinieelt rat the nee, of 2(1,
and was the inventor of numerous im
provcments in the sci•entitie instrum-
ents used in navigation and astron-
omy and in conection with hydraulic
machinery.
He read a large number of -dnti-
ftc papers at the meetings of the
Royal Society, of which he had been
elected a member at the age of 29.
One of these papers, which dealt
with his experiments concerning the
natural powers of water and wind
to turn mills and other machines de-
pending upon circular motion, gained
for him the award of the much -cov-
eted Copley Gold Medal in 1759.
In 1758, when he was only 32
years of age, he was entrusted with
the important task of constructing a
new lighthouse on the Eddystone
Rocks at the entrance to Plymouth
Sound. and this work, which occup-
ied him N. three years, was accom-
plished without loss of life or ser-
ious accident, despite the peril; and
difficulties which attended it. This
was his most famous achievement,

When Company Comes
When company tomos I'm always

For mother cooks things that we
haven't had
For ages, and brings all the silver
out
And all of the things thnt she is
choice about.
And people always speak pleasantly
'I'o one another, and even me,
For nobody says that I'm all thumbs
So I'm always glad when company
comes.
We have our dinner, and when we're
through,
They help with the dishes, tiie com-
pany do,
And 'mother tells me to go and play,
So I won't hear what they want to
say.
nobody says, "What's that
youngster at?"
something always goes wrung
at that.

THIS YOUR MARK
Do quite yn -'self, act like a than,
but do not shirk nor :'top to (mirk,
e' a
though you Is., kite, deep in
work. Just keep your thought of
se'nee aright, let friend., advise, they
may seem wise, then have you say
of "yea" or "nay" to prove a fitter
light.
So let men laugh or let them cry,
but hoed the sorrows of a sigh; for in
that sigh an aching heart may need
your help as you pass by. Give to
each man a chance to speak, his word
may be the one you seek, let others
fume and prate the while, just keep
your step in proper style, for, in the
end, each man will know that you
have, far the better show, to win
and work the ways of life without a
bitter thought or strife.
In banquet hall with lights aglow,
let talks be free, of easy flow; sepak
well of everyone you see, and let the
air much fresher be. Of taint of
gossip just keep shy, and pluck each
mote that mars the eye. Be hale and
hearty with each greet,—a genuine
pal for those you meet. Say not,
"Adieu!" when 'e'er you part, but
shake each hand wltn warmth of
heart. Thus let men know your
better self—a brother, true and not
for self, but span your life with
deeds that win, a love for heaven and
not for sin.
DEATH T
THE FLY
If there is no breeding place for
flies there will be no flies. The al-
most total disappearance of stables
from cities has removed a prolific
source of fly propagation. But not
all the spots which assist the fly en
preserving his species were in the
vicinity of stables. Where there is
filth there will be flies and where
flies go 'there will some of the filth
accompany them.
Time was when flirts were endured
as an inevitable annoyance without
an appreciation of 'rite menace to
health their presentee is, They swarm-
ed because no effort was made to er-
adi:'atte them, That era is past but
there are those a till who tolerate con-
ditions which in effect are :tot inim-
ical to the interests of tltr.. fly. Not
every house occupant ran prevent
flies from seeking entrance but every
enc can keep thorn on the oaatide.
It is within the province of all to re-
fuse to purchase food products which
are accessible to flies.
Were everyone to eliminate breed-
ing places ort his own premises and
to screen and swat, the fly soon
would become as completely extinct
as the monsterd" of which we know
only through their fossil remains.
The fly is small but he makes up in
industry and persistence what he
lacks in size.
We become alarmed when an epi-
demic threatens, yet toe many of 00
tolerate th fly when we know his
capacity as a disease carrier. 13e-
cause he is no novelty we minimize
the peril *Melt he may transmit.

A THOUSAND -POUND :COTE.
Enabled Man to Make Purchases and
Get Credit Without a Deposit.
"Mr. Edward Tyrrol .milli, with
whom I had business relations for
some three or four years. was," writes
Mr. itapleson in his "Memoirs," "an
extraordinary personage whose like
could be met with only in our own
time and in such capitals as Lundon
or Paris, where the population in
general has certainly not the faintest
idea how some shall part of that
population lives.
'Mr. Smith had made up his mind
early in life to be the possessor, or at
least the handler, of considerable
sums of money; and he at one time
found it worth his while, so as never
to be without funds, to hire daily, at
the rate of one pound per clay, a
thousand -pound note, which was
obligingly entrusted to him by. a
moneylender of the period, one Sam
Genese,
"There are not many pe1eotls to
whom such a loan would be worth tho
thirty -six -and -a -half per cent. interest
which idr. Smith paid for It. He was
an adept, however, at ani kinds of
business, and itis thousand -pound
note enabled him to make purchases
on credit which without deposit-
money he would have beoit unable to
effect. Attending sales, he would
buy whatever happened to suit him,
with a view to immediate re -sale, of-
fering his thousand -pound note, as a
deposit, to discover as a matter of
course that it could not be changed,
and have the article for which he
had bid marked down to ltltn all the
sante. Then he wouid resell, and
pocket the difference."

and good baking qualities with a high

Breeding for rust resistance is con-
centrated largely at present in the

to which Marquis was nut well 'opt-
ed, exct'pt in lotalitics where stent
rust was liable to occur,
hr 11127 Garnet was subjected to
still more cmnitrchc.,sivo and exact-
ing tests with the result that eon-,
elusions arrived at eiuring the earlier
tuts were confirmed to a1 remarkable
degree. As regards yield, Garnet
undoubtedly is entitled to rank a-
mong the most productive of our.
common wheat varieties, especially
in districts for which it is adapted.
In Alberta and in parts of northern
Saskatchewan particularly, some as-
tonishing yields have been recorded,'
but in districts suffering from stem
rust, results were less encouraging.
The fact that Garnet matures frons,
a week to ten days earlier than Mar-
quis created a hope that the variety
might be of value in rust areas, but
while this variety may frequently es-,
cape rust by reason of its early ma-
turity it is not sufficiently safe to
grow in districts liable to rust epic
demics.
In weight per measured bushy,
and in the perentage of !lour extract-
ed from a given quantity of wheat,
Garnet has excelled Mtu'quiet slight-
ly, but not to a s'l.,nificant degree.
As to hardness, Garnet is undoubted-
ly inclined to produce a harder or
more vitreous kernel than Marquis
and appears also to hold its colours
better under.' adverse weather con-
ditions.
Baking tests conducted by the
Cereal Division at Ottawa and else-
where during 1927 indicate that the
chief point in which there appears to
be an appreciable difference between'
Marquis and Garnet is in the colour
of the flour and crumb. Garnet tnl
doubtedly does not pr0(1110e its white
a flour as does Marquis, Overseas
'millers and bakers, however, do not
seem to regard the creamy shade of
Carnet flour as objectionable since.
Canadian wheats are always blended
with ether whet4 and are valued
primarily on account of the .strength
and stability of their gluten.
The precocity of Garnet cnunlr-d
with its productivity bids fair ee
have an effect on no quality of Can-
adian wheat. in 0 way not hilly a-,-

tire effect that certain old v0rietiee
of poor or mediocre quality, which
were introduced years ago chiefly on
account of their relative earliness of
maturity, 5'!11 persist to a greater
or lesser extent in many districts.
The introduction of a variety such as
Garnet which attracts immediate ate
tention by reason of the romarkablt
degree in which it combines quick
maturity with high yield is destined
to have the effect of purging great
sections of the Dominion's finest
wheat -growing lands of discredited
varieties and mixtures, and to tIlto
extent should reduce the difficulties
which art present confront the official
graders of our commercial grain.
