Rub Gently and Upward Toward the Heart as Blood in Veins Flows That Way Many People have become deepen - deal because they have been led to believe that there is no remedy that will reduce,swollen veins and bunches. If you will get a two -ounce orig- inal bottle., of Moone's 'Emerald Oil (full strength) at any first-class drug .store and apply it, night , and morning as directed you will quickly notice an improvement which ' will continue until the veins and hunches are reduced to normal. Moon's Emerald Oil is a harm- less, yet inost powerful germicide and two ounces last a very long time, Indeed, 'so powerful is Enter - ala Oil that old chronic sores and ulcers are often entirely healed and anyone who is disappointed with its use can have their money refunded. 11l druggists; sell lots of it.

It is' generally conceded that no' orchard operation is more impor- tant in the production of good fruit than is spraying. No matter how well an orchard may be cultivated, fertilized and pruned, thce fruit is not attractive to consumers -unless it is freefro tho. ravages of insects and fungus pests.,31Such freedoth can only be secured' by thorough and careful spraying. A. N.- L. ButlerSpray Supervisor, for Iinon' county reports. satisfac- tory progress in spraying operations. There are forty-two growers enrolled on the service and spraybulletins are sent to sixty-five others, This was' greatly appreciated last year and the --number of requests for assistance are on the increase. The promise of fruit this year is good. lIlost orchards show trees well loaded with fruit buds. :The weath- er to date has been .backward and cold. There has been some frost damage to young leaves but the buds have not suffered. The first or pre; pink spray is prac- tically-coMpleted in all orchards, and some will soon be ready for the pink spray. The spray .supervisor calls on each man -as often as possible dur- ing the season. He checks up on re- sults which growers are getting. Ire is the growers guide, giving advice, on spray'; materials :to use, the time- liness .and thoroughness ofthe; sprays. Thorough well-timed spraying with the right'kinds and amounts of spray materials are_the keystones to clean, high quality fruit. HAVE YOU GOT TOUR ,PERMIT . Thousands of travellers in the woods, more than ever before because the travel.permit areas are being ex- tended, will be accosted this year with the question "Have you got your per-, mit." .The fire -ranger who asks you this question may or may not be in uniform but if you are in doubt as to his authority he can show You his badge. Why are you asked to obtain aper- mit to travel the woods that belong, you have heard it repeatedly said, to the people of Canada. Simply to ' assist your guardians of the forests,, who represent after all only a nue- leus staff, to protect` your forest wealth. If you 'wish efficient forest protection at a minimum cost then You must do part of the protection work yourself, It must be a co- oper-ative affair or otherwise your re- pr•eseniatiives, the fire rangers must fail. In a safe year 'perhaps the lack of your individual co-operation might passthere might not be dis- astrous results from some careless action with fire oil your part or on that of the party; of which you are a member. But you as a'novice in the fire fighting game don't know enough and consequently cannot afford to take any chances with fire, whether •you think it safe or not. For all you know, it may bo a dangerous period or it may be even a fire year.

' The oil owes its speoifie medical value to richness in vrta'nune content and, in a lesser degree, to its iodine value: ;Tn 1925 the production of medicinal cod liver oil from the Canadian Fish- ery was only 2,6,836 gallons, but since then there, has been a great in- crease. In 1926 the productiot'was 94,383 gallons, and in 1927 slightly less than that=:92,597 gallons: Fig- ures for 1928 have not yet been com- pleted and finally revised by the Fisheries Branch, but it 18 not ex- pected that, they will show any very material ' difference- from front those for 1927. The Nova Scotia: fishery is the largest producer of medicinal cod liv'Ai oil, Quebec was second in 1927, proddeing 22,640 gallons, valued at 558,924, as compared'with Nova Scot- ia's 57,26.4 gallan production valued at $53,130: New 'Brunswick produc- ed 12, 489 gallons 'hick were valued' at 512,226. British Colmnbiais pro- duction so fax is small. Cid oil, as distinct .from medieinal cod liver oil, is another by-product of the fishing industry which adds +90,000 or so to the annual fishery Production, but oil obtained as a by- product of the British Colli ibia•p11- chard fishery represents approximat- ely ten times that figure. , AND SEVERAL (Ottawa Journal), Writer asks what steps should be taken to protect the pedestrian's rights.
