WORK OF THE LEAVES Many Necessary and Interesting Pro ceases Impossible Without Thom An examination of the leaves of various plants will show a-,eculiar structure all for certain purposes. The, underaide of a rhubarb plant leaf, for instance,' has prominent strong veins.- Thu leaves of the pop- lar tree, even after they . sve fallen, and the skin all gone, have a network of veins. In the daffodil the veins go instrips—some branch. The purpose of these veins is to convey fluids to. the leaves from the root nd Mem, and also .to take other fluids away. The larger leaves have ribs for support Plants constantly take in oxygen ti'om the air, and give out carbonic gas as waste. This breathing is called res- piration and takes place through the leaves, which' are the lunge .of the tree or plant. • Carbon is being gradually digested,' and then stored ap in' she stem and leaves in growing plants. Carbon dioxide, or carbonic gas, is absorbed by the leaves from the air, and the plants break up this gas, secure from it the carbon, and allow the oxygen. to escape into the air. Titis process of feeding or digestion is called as- similation, and takes place with the aid of sunlight, the result being that Li it is ab starch is manufactured.g 1 solutely necessary for this process, for starch is found nowhere except in green .leaves. When greeu plants have sunlight, they secure energy to split up the carbon dioxide, Store up the carbon, and free the oxygen. But when plants are placed in darkness, the opposite takes place. From this it can be readily seen that it a bad practice to keep plants in bedrooms, as too much carbon dioxide is injur- ious to animal life. Another process that is going on in plants is transpiration. Water, in which various salts are dissolved, is absorbed by root hairs, sent up the stems through the bundles of vessels, and carried to the leaves. The flow of sap is excessive in summer, so some outlet is required. For his pur- pose the leavesare used, and through pores on the upper and under sur- - faces the excess is carried to the air. This keeps plants cool in the hottest weather, mud is so rapid that a sun- flower gives off as ni ch as a quart of liquid in 24 hours. If one touches the leaves of a tomato plant at noon on a hot day, as it is growing against a wall, moisture on the surface will be perceived, and one can also see the liquid. If all the leaves of a plant were removed, and tee new ones cut off as they cane cut, the plant could not breathe, no food would be stored up in It, for it could not digest its food, and it would consequently die of starvation. Poultry Hinta Did you forget to mean out the poultry house last fall? Ietter take the next sunshiny day and --surprise the hens. They might be .able to stand it. Why are you crowding the house with all those late cockerels? and, yes, there is last year's cock. They won't lay; give them a holiday or a trip to town. Don't expect big egg results i2 the hens have to roost on the to: o. the buggy or the binder reel. Do the bens bave access to clean, dry earth during the winter to dust In? It helps them to fight lice, and lice spoil profits. Don't try to keep more than one breed! You might be able to do it. for a while, but others have failed. Found Success in Canada t." MR.

BELGIAN FARM LIFE Belgium, or the corner of it un- ravaged by war, is a busy and mar- venously interesting'spot-to the farm lover, according to a Canadian, who wretes home as follows: I made the acquaintance of one of the Flemish farmers who was described as wealthy. The farm was his own property. He kept five cows, one borse, and a good many pigs. The house and all the buildings were small, neat, and built dose to one another, while- 400 vergees (about one acre and a half), were kept under cultivation. Two cool greenhouses, each 130 feet long, were stocked from top to bottom with cauliflower plants, early peas, celery plants, etc., all in pots; while out - doom the well-manured beds were al- ready prepared to receive, as soon as the great .frosts would be over, the young plants of early vegetables, cauli- flowers, carrots, peas, lettuce, and all sorts of greens and sweet herbs, of which the Belgians make their de. licious soups. From these outdoor beds the early crops are usually taken in the fist days of May, althougL the climate is colder than the climate of Kent. Perhaps there is a little more sunshine. The farmer's wife, a bright, intelli- gent woman who spoke good French, laughed when S suggested something to her about "the dead season" on the farm. Her husband, herself, her old mother, a young laborer, and the girl servant had plenty of work alt the year round, and in summer they had to take on additional help. Five people having plenty to do on a farm of less than one acre and a half, summer and winter alike, explains how they manage to get from this small "area the staple food for them- selves, their four or five cows, as many pigs, and the horse. In raelity they buy only bren and beetroot re- fuse from the sugar factories to feed their live stock. I was told that the cows yielded a daily average of at least 100 litres (SS quarts) of milk.' They are milked three times a day, and the early morning's milk is taken to Ghent by the farmer's wife her- self in the horse cart. She has in the town a number of regular custo- mers for milk, batter and vegetables. The second and third milkings go to make butter, while the skimmed milk feeds the calves and the pigs, Every year they sell pigs. "Our pigs ate. well fed," the farmer's wits said, "and ,they always weigh at least 200 kilos" (440 lbs.). The vegetables bring In about $300 a year." DON'T Don't waste too much time showing Bobby how his new engine works, Don't start singing . a comic song unless you're sure you know the second verse. Don't tell a chap those cigars were a present from the wile just after he's lit one. Don't set the alarm for eight o'clock Sunday morning. You'll wear out the works for nothing. Don't get annoyed if the children tell you they heard Daddy say a naughty word when he kicked his toe on the bedpost. VARIETY IN FOWL FARE Wise, Terse Hints For the Practical Poultryman The first two meals of the day should be light ones, provided the fowls are fed three times a' day. But the evening meal ought to be all that will be eaten up clean. A busy hen is one that never loses her appetite. There should be one system of feed- ing, • and that system should have a bbl of fare containing as 'great a variety as possible. To be continually adopting somebody else's' plan gener- ally works to the detriment of the egg crop, To continue a long -con- tinued single diet is as bad as over- feeding; both induce indigestion, which is apt to . debilitate the flock to a disease inviting condition. Civilizing India Sanitary conditions in Southern In- dia are receiving the attention of the Government of Madras Presidency, which has under consideration schemes', for opening up congested areas and for town planning along sanitary lines. At an industrial ex- hibition in the city of Madras, much space was devoted to a "model Al- lege," and lectures were given daily on healthlhealthtopics and town p lannln g.

A. Hard Question ----- - Why Do We Smoke? A Frenchman's view am the Use of the Fragrant Weed—is Smoking a Necessity to the Indulger ? Why do - we smoke? What rays terious and irresistible attraction does this -strange pleasure exert? I1 is indeed a strange pleasure, for you. cannot in this case, as you can in re- gard to other human pleasures and the vices that result from excesses, point out that it responds to a certain craving inour nature, wh. ch has gradually become excessive "and tyran- nical. In more or less perfect forms all our modern enjoyments have been practiced at all times, but this par- ticular 'enjo"went was unknown to the ancient civilizations, and became known in Europe only at the time of Catherine of Medicis. Those of our senses which seem to crave for it to -day are really not tickled by it, if it were the smell we enjoyed, we should rarely smoke through the nose, while we do with our palate that is nearly unable to appreciate odors. It has been proved that wizen you blindfold a smokor:and compress his nostrils he is unable to tell whether the cigar he is smoking is lighted or not. Everything in the act of smoking is, therefore, ahnermal. A smoker forces the mucous mem- brands of his mouth and throat to perform a work which they do not crave for, and, wanting to inhale an ' aroma, he inhales it through the mouth, which is almost as strange ' as if you would put a straw in your nostrils to appreciate the flavor of a glass of fine Bordeaux. Tobacco Odor Pleasant ? "I admit," a smoker will say, "that the odor of another man's tobacco is unpleasant, but you surely will not deny that to a man who smokes a I choice Havana possesses an exquisite taste and delicious aroma." Yes, my smoking friend, a choice jIavana does really contain a perfume AMP in its smoke, or rather a subtle taste, which may even be compared with the taste of the best Burgundy. But do you always smoke choice Havanas? And, if you tlo, how many smokers are able to do the same? Before the recent added tax was put on to- bacco'in France connoisseurs agreed that a good cigar could not be bought for less than SO centimes, and if you wanted to get a really good cigar you would have to pay one franc . and thirty centimes. Then you may easily' figure out lvhat you must pay to -day not to smoke refuse, Refuse is dust what cheap "tobacco is in France as well as other places.: It is equivalent to fifth class meat, to wine at two sous the litre, to the kind of food you get in the poor houses. Remember that the French Govern- ment makes 900 per cent: on a. pack- age of tobacco and on other things' almost the same proportion. When you pay four sous for a cigar, it has not cost but a fraction of one sou to produce. Only Smoke Refuse The result is you smoke only re- fuse, and, if you are quite honest, you will admit that you know 1t. The taste of your &gar ie almost dis- agreeable to you. If it i nes not taste bad all the way through it does so at least when you have smoked half of it. It vitiates the air, it is hitter and nauseating. It is no more tobac- co than, the workingmmn's "petit verre" is choice liquor. Why do we smoke? Because smok- ing is a pastime" because of the in- toxication whichthepoison produces for the same reason that -cakes tite laborer gulp down his glass of exe- crably poisonous brandy: Tobacco,like alcohol, is nothing but an Occidental form of opium, and that is why the quality of tobacco and alcohol, after all, matter very little to the consumer, wito is only looping for the pleasure of certain gestures and various degrees of intoxication.

The seldom recog ni g Ct.e tact that thin blood is the cause of the trouble, but it is. In fact thin, impure blood is the most com mon cause of stomach trouble; it affects' the digeetion very quickly. The glands that furnieb the digestive fluid are diminished in their activity; the stomach miracles are weakened, and there is a loss of nerve force, la this state of health notbing will more quickly restore the appetite, the diger tion and normal nutrition than enod, rich, red blood. lir. Williams' Pink Pills act directly en the blood, making it rich and re& and this enriched blood strengthens weak nerves, stimulates tired muscles and awakens the normal activity of the glands that supply the digestive fluids. The first signof im proving health is an improved appetite and soon the effect of these blend making pills is evident throughout, the system. Ton find thatwhat you eat does not distress you, and that you are strong and vigorous instead of rem table and listless. ibis is proved by the case. of Mrs, J, Harris, Gerrard St, Toronto, who says; "About three year ago 1 was seized with a severe attack of indigestion and vomiting. My food seemed to turn sour as soon as'I ate it and I would turn so dee telly sick that sometimes • I would fall on the floor" after vomiting. I tried a lot'pf home remedies, but they did not help me. Then I went to a doctor who gave me some powders, but they seemed actual lv to snake me worse instead of better. This went on for nearly two months and by that time my stomach was in such a weak state that I could not keep down a drink of water. and I was wasted to a skeleton and felt that life was nor worth living. .I was not mar ried at this true and one. Sunday on the way to church with my ' intended husband'I was taken with a bad spell on the street, He took me to a drug store whore the clerk fixed up some thing to take, and my intendent got Pi J me a boat of Dr, Williams' Pink ilia. By the end of the first week. I could feel some improvement from the use, of the Pills, and I gladly continued taking them until every symptom of the trouble was gone, and 1 was again enjoying the best of health, These Pills are now my stienddhy and I tel are friends what they did for me." , You can get Dr. Williams Pink Pills through any medicine dealer or by mail at 50 cents a box or six boxes for e2.50 from The Dr, Williams MVledicine Um, 13rockville, Ont, • j 4 i The Western Fair Leaden, Ontario September Stix to 16t1i, 1916 One of the changes that will be notic ed by visitors to the Exhibition in Sep tember next, at London. will be the new Peoeess Building, which has heen erected since last year"e Exhibition.

The driver must occasionally. stop and pull the weeds out by hand: ".Chis is usu- ally a great annoyance as well as a time loser. One of ow good readers uses the devices illustrated. The one at the bottom, consists of a handle of any convenient length and two pieces of iron attached to. one end, as lndi- cated. In operation• this tool is carried in the hand: When. weeds collect around a harrow tooth it is thrust forward against them or the hook is placed upon, the bungle and, given a pull Thus the operator is able to continue prog- ress without even losing a single step, to say nothing of halting his team. A similar device may be made, as shown at thetop, from a crotched stick or wills only the hook (see center). When made be this way it can often be used for lifting individual barrow teeth or even sections of the barrow out of the. way of snags and stones.—Americath Agriculturist, A School Story Atthe examination of the pupile fie a Wintery school a short time ago, the inspector put questions at ran- dom to the scholars, Among tate lat- ter was a redheaded lad, who, on, being asked how many days tkaere are in a year, answered "seven:° When the tittering of the rest 01 the Masa subsided, the inspector remarked:— "I said a yoar, not a week.

The fig is one of the oldest fruits• known, and since it has become known that figs can be grown in pots: and fruited In the conservatory or in• the open ground, where there are three months warm summer weather, there, has been a great demand for the quibk bearing varieties by people anxious to, grow fresh figs. These varieties begin to fruit by the time the• young shoots are six inches long arid! Perm a fig at every leaf. Unlike apples, peaches and. other fruits of the kind, theft is more - like the raspberry or, blackberry In the. respect that the fruit does not ripen, all at one time. Figs continue to develop and ripen until checked' by cold,. weather. For pot culture•theflg requires,aboot. the same treatment as a rubber plant, and if supplied with. plenty of water the fruit will ripen. Vigorous plants. will have fruit in. all stages of dere!. open eat, from the. smallest green fruit to the ripe figs ready for picking and' eating. Celeste bears, rather smolt fruit of high quality, but is not very produc- tive. Ischia has a' green, exterior, the. inside of the fruit being blood red. flirts Japan is an abundant bearer;. and Magnolia, bears. large. pear shaped' fruit. One fig enthusiast writes that his. figs stood zero weather last year, though when first set out freesias. weather would kill them, As they be- come acclimated te•plants•stand;cold er weather.

Until recently Miter* bas been notest that could be used in determining wbetber a chicken, had tuberculosis or not. Dr. L. van Es of the North Da- kota experiment station has discovered a test similar to, that usedin testing cattle for tuberculosis. When, tubercu, lin is injected into the skin of the wet• tle or comb a, very pronounced swell- ing develops In case the bird is tuber culous, while if it is free from it no, swelling results. The ,method is very, accurate when c'are is used. One dock that was tested gave the following results; Percentage tubercu- lous, one year old, 3 3-3.;• two years; old, 24 1-3; three years' old, 86%, ands four years old, 85%, Thee/events lesson from this is that the old birds are much more affected , thane are the young ones.

When we say that the girl who plays. golf dons low heeled shoes, a short skirt and the rest of the sporting paraphernalia it must not be thought that her costume is in any way unat- tractive or that any sort of clothes will do for this game, The day bas passed when this was the case. Time was when the golfing girl was not a thing of beauty nor yet a joy forever, but fortunately that time is of the past, not the present.. Today the girl who plays golf pre- sents a trim,. immaculate figure. She is dad in wen cut clothes designed on comfortable but at the same time be- coming lines. Her golf skirt is some- times of linen, sometimes of tweed, but whatever the material used it fits her figure beautifully and swings gracefully at every stroke. Her blouse,' though a plain one, is wonderfully made, often sewed by band and orna- mented with the finest of flue stitches. While it is usually mannish in cut, 11 loses nothing lu beauty by this fart, for a bright tie at the throat or fancy buttons add ti feminine note. The hat of the golfing girl is a seusi ble but pretty affair. 1t is snug fit- ting, so that in the midst of the game the player need not be disturbed, by breezes dislodging her headgear. Usu- ally it, is fairly large so that the eyes may be shaded from sunshine and the complexion guarded from ran. A pan oma, with a single ribbon band is, a popular golfing hat, though there are numerous other types of headgear which meet with the athletic glrlts• ap- i prove!. The most fascinating' part of the whole costume worn by the girl' who plays• golf is the vivid covered silk• sweater worn over her sport blouse. DAUGHTER'S SPRING FROCK.
