The conference hasbeenassembled together not merely to discuss prob- lems relative to broadcasting alone; but covers the' whole spectrum of radio from the highest waves down :to the smalest at present in use. The scope of operations here will take in ,everything from the high-powered agi trans-Atlantic commercial stations„ Mk down to the amateur stations on the &•,,short wave bands,; As its representatives, Canada has ii sent .Alex. Johnson, the deputy minis- ter of marine and fisheries, in charge of radio Tor Canada, Commander C. P. Edwards,,directon' of radio for Can ada,„and Major Arthur Steele, one of the chief signalling officers in the de- partment of militia. To this delega- tion, of course, are attached, numer- ous experts an various phases of radio, as well as secretaries and re- presentatives of tho various commer- cial .companies. Each of the other nations have similar delegations, in many 'cages of much larger hize, It is extremely unlikely that the confer- ence can last less than two months, and a tremendous number of subjects Inst lie discussed and settled. A complete new. draft of the London convention which is the former inter- national law governing radio, must be brawn up and the law settled for, per- haps, the next decade. The many themes of 'interest to the average citizen of the Dominion will be those governing broadcasting. As the reader knows, the Matted States of America and Canada are now oper- ating under an agreement reached last year, and by which the various wave lengths between 200 metres and 660 metres were apportioned out by the government into various wave channels which were 10 kilocycles apart. Canada was awarded certain of these channels and the United States the balance. Canada has claimed that she should be entitled to more wave channels than have been allowed her by the United States govermnent, and there is a possibility that pressure will be brought to bear on the United States at, this confer- ence to recognize Canadian rights to these extra wave lengths, Amateurs Interested, At the same time it is quite possible that other nations may desire to put other services within the broadcast bawd atpresent used in North Ameri- "r ca. It is well known now that certain European countries insist on main- taining certain of their ship communi- cation work within the broadcast band, and it is another matter which will likely be taken up by the confer- ence. Tho amatetur radio operators of North America and in fact, of the whole world, are vitally interested in the decisions reached by the confer- ence concerning the allotment made to various services within the wave length band below 120 metres. This is a matter which is certain to conte before the conference but the out- come is extremely doubtful by reason of the wide diversity of opinion be- tween the vinous nations involved, which ranges all the way from Swit- zerland who would licence no expert- mental stations whatever, up to Can- ada who has at the present tfine the broadcast allowance for amateur work of any nation which boasts of a large number of amateur stations. In regard to the apportionment of these short waves, Canada and United States are bound in together In a similar manner to what holds con- cerning the waves above 120 metres. Radio knows no boundaries, and therefore, it is vitally necessary that Canada and United States work in '4 accord to 'prevent absolute chaos in the ether oyes' North America.. Short waves below 120 metres have proved themselves such tremendous long distance waves that it is hoped that the nations .tiff. the Washington con- ference will realize that a complete accord by all the nations on the sub- ject of this year should be had to j avoid mutual interference and radii r late international amateur-communt- cation. The work to be done at this con- ference is tremendous ,and from the labor which has already been expend- ed on the various 50bjeetS- to be dis- cussed, it would appear that the new International regulations concerning radio may be very far-reaching in their effect. .It Is likely that 111 some particulars at least, reservations ons from the main body of the convention will bo made by the various nations who do not find the general opinion of the conference in accord with their own iiecessities. 0 Not An Error Starting et 11.15, the Furniture .

The Fortunate Farmer Sorel Courrier (Ind.) : Farm produce will always bo necessaries of life and will always command a market.. The products of urban industries, on the contrary, are often compelled to make their own markets and are subject to great ver'iations.. .. The farmer can exist happily, knowing that his pro- duce will always find a purchaser. The town worker is not even certain that he will be employed the follow- ing day.

This new activity of New York's gangsters has the full coucurrence of the police, for it releases the latter from regular duties and gives them time to forret out every new bootleg- ger and collect the. cash. . Tho whole situation misses becoming scandalous because the gangsters are vastly more °iitcient in curbing the crime in their districts than the police have ever been.

Wants to Die Before She's Old "I could not live one year, one month, cine day beyond the hour when I lose the ability to live fully," de- clares Anna Steese Richardson in the current issue of "The Now Age Illus- trated: " The famous writer goes on to say, "The one thing I fear is living until I am old, not old in -years, but in body, in thought, in spirit! Compared with the thought of failing in health, physically and mentally, of becoming helples sand useless, the prospect of dying is exhilarating. It la because I have found life so unfailingly inter- esting anti etimulating that I shiver at the thought of Iiving after it has turned stale and unprofitable. Have the physicians who evolved the form- ula for longer living worked out also a formula for prolonging physical and mental vigor? If they have not, must we live the years longer under the shadow of the Scriptural 'warning: 'Tho days of our age are three -score years and ten; and though men be so strong that they come to fourscore years; yet is their strength then but labor and sorrow?' My father lived until ho was seventy-two; my grand- parents died in their late seventies; and truly their strength was labor and sorrow. So at sixty-two I regard i the prospect of living longer than they did . with doubt and dread." She—"Doesn't the air and scenery hero inspire you to write" }Ie—"Yeh.

"Fire Starters" and so Prevent Loss Farin lire losses in this Provinee continue to reach a staggering total. Since midsummer the press has car- ried one story after' another of valu- able barnes goingup in flame with their treasured contents of grain, hay and live stock,. A barn moans as much tb a farmer as a factory does to a manufacturer, and even if the loss is covered by insurance, the setback in time and wasted labor is incalcul- able. CCauses of barn fires are innumer- able and have been discussed in de tail. , Probably there will always be causes for fires, but if so many barns, were not Are -traps o fthe worst sort -and often unnecessarily so—the loss would be nothing like it is to -day. In a barn that has dark corners and passage -ways littered up with dry chaff and straw, gasoline and gaso- line machinery carelessly stored, and other inflammable material such as, linseed oil, it needs but a spark from a pipe, a lantern or a carelessly thrown match to set the whole place should always be hand, of course; but the old adage that "prevention is better than cure" is as applicable in this case as in any other. Now that the days are shorter and a good part of the chores must be done after sundown, it is an excel- lent precaution to clear up everything, that may make quick fuel foe a blaze. This includes chaff, straw and hay, bits of boards, oily rags or bagging that has been .use's for cleaning ma- chinery, that may be lying around the barn, while outside any grass, woods or brush should be cleared away and burned i na safe spot. Never permit the accumulation of such waste ma- terials as shingles, paper, old lumber, empty boxes and straw near the buildings, for a spark from au en- gine, a cigarette or a match may set them on fire and burn the premises. Bonfires should always be watched carefully until they are out. Paint, varnish and oil fillers usually contain linseed oil, which' will oxidise, heat and set fire to rags, excelsior or similar material. Gasoline is as dan- gerous to have around as dynamite unless it is stored in a safe fire -proof place and the containers closed so that the vapor cannot escape. Lan (.ergs, now coming into daily use again, are safe only when clean, well - trimmed, properly filled, free from leaks; and hung on houlcs out. of the wind, away from cobwebs and out of the reach of lioc-ec" and cattle. QUESTIONS OF GENERAL INTEREST Palm Needs Repotting.—I have a palm that I have had one year. It has had only one new leaf. It has had six leaves in all, some of which have died. It is in a four -Melt pot. Is this pot too small for that size plant? If I transplant it, how large a pot should be used, and what kind of soil is best for a palm? How often should a palet be watered? Should it be Watered often, sparingly, or at lengthy intervals with a lot of water? —II, E. N. I suspect that your palm needs a larger pot and some fresh earth. A palet with six leaves should be In a pot six inches in diameter. When you repot 1t, give it a good, rich earth with about an inch of broken rocks or pebbles in the bot- tom so as to fissure perfect drainage, and water it regularly eo that the earth' is usually just comfortably moist but not wet.
