PROBLEM OF CLEANING RUGS.
Rugs and dirtare natural affinities,

`the grievance all on the side of, the
rug, for thenicer the rug and the

such a co=nplex offender. It consists
of the dust blown on to the rug and
that which .falls from the clothing and
shoes, short hairs, if there is a cat or
dog g admitted to the house; threads
and ravclings, lint and Ruff, bits of
paper, imbedded diet .and grit. Par-

• Thereis much to die said from the
sanitation viewpoint as well. Clean
rugs mean cleaner rooms, fresher air
and, in general brighter and more
livable homes. they save labor, too,
for the woman who does her own
housework.

to an. established "defiler, choose from
the makeswhich are manufactured by

Eider Dom,
Canadian
industry
Inyestlgations carried on by several-
ornitholagiets in the Gulf of St, Law-
rence and more no'thoe'ss parts of
Canada hay's brought to light the pos-
sibility of an industry of considerable
magnitude in the production of elder
down:Thousands at eider ducks nest
on the rocky ehares'of the Gulf of St.
Lawrence and northwora while a few
scattered breeding places aro also to
be found farther south, and these nest-
hag grounds provide a potential source
of supply of down which is in demand
in commiece.
The _eider duck- is an insectivorous
hied whtoh, in addition to its proi.ec-.
tivo`virtues, can he mads to provide
a direct and handsome revenue; Yet
no attempt has been made in Canada
to exploit the. thousands of birds, and
opportunity:exists for the building up
of -an indaistey which, with the ,ase-
quate protection of the ,birds, would.
be eermatient, and, in fact, increasing.
The industry can be made a per-
manent one, because it is not necea•
'sary to kill the birds` to secure the
down which is in such demand. In
fact, where 'the most down is collect-
ed it found that the birds increase
in .numbers most rapidly. The ducks
plunk the clown from their bodies to
line their nests, and it is from the
n,esits that it is gathered.. Two collec-
tlone'of down areenade each year,. the
first being evade shortly after the
nests are built. This procedure does
not interfere with the hatching of the
eggs as the dunks immediately provicle
a new supply. The second collection
is made alber the eggs are hatched
and the nests abandoned for the sea.
-
, The ,conservation of the cider dttek.
in Europe hoe been practised for many
years, and has resulted In the build-
ing up of profitable industries in many
eocatfons, especially in Iceland and
Norway. There the birds are ce.efully
protected in the nesting seasons, even
the discharging of guns in the vicinity
of nesting places boing etriotly forbid-
den. I7zder such protection the birds
become-eseeedingly tame and live
around human. habitations as fearless-
ly e - barnyard fowl. An idea of the
value placed on the eider duck in
these countries may be gitlned Proal
the fact that not long ago an island'
a t,of Iceland of ht square
off the � co s g
miles in extent, sold for approximately;
i 1' on account of the eider'
$200,000 so c y
down produced there.
The down is valued Highly and the
ri e range from $2.50 ..,to' $5:00 a
p c s g
pound. It is,inuch sought after for
the manufacture of quilts,. comforters,
etc„ owing to the fact thaflt: combines
a Minimum of weight with a°maximum
of warmth. Each nest, it is estimated,

to he: cents worth of down each year.

of developing a valuable industry have
thus Par bean neglected by residents
of the shores of the St, Lawronce Gull
