Resolutions.
The following resolutions were
brought in by the resolution. com-
mittee and adopted by the convention.
(1) Whereas, we deplore the in-
creasing tendency in the use of to-
bacco, especially the cigarette among
our young men and young women
and even our children, be it resolv-
ed that we urge our people to see
that the law is enorced both in the
sale and purchase •of tobacco in its
relation to minors and' seek by the
influence of literature and pledge -
sign to instruct and fortify our youth.
(2) Wherea.s, we realize the neces-
sity of the immediate preparation, of
our women voters we would request
not only every member of the W.C.
T.U. but every, Canadian woman to
be very thorough and prompt in the
carrying out of the pledge -signing
known as the "Mirror Pledge:"
• (3) 'Whereas, we appreciate the
wonderful results which were deriv-
ed from the recent Educational Cam-
paign conducted by the National W.
c.T.u. supported ably by the John
Dougal Publishing House and where-
as we are gratified that another cam-
paign on a larger scale is to be laun-
ched in the fall. of this year, be it
resolved, that this Convention pledge
its support not only in hearty co-
operation but in liberal financial aid.
(4) Whereas, we are conscious of
the great lack' of Temperance Organ-
izations, amongst our young women
and children, we would ask each of
the local Unions to consider serious-
ly the forming of Young Women's
Christian Temperance Unions and
Loyal Temperance Legions.
(5) Whereas, we have once more
received inspiration from the pres-
ence of Miss Duff in our convention
and listened with interest and profit
to her addresses we would place on
record our sincere appreciation of
her influence for prohibition through-
out the length ,and breadth of our
Dominion and would convey to her
our best wishes and' our co-operation
with her through prayer.
(6) Whereas, we have enjoyed the
hospitality of the Hensall -Union and
the comfort of this beautiful church
and also the program of music and
elocution, we would'desire to e'xpress
our gratitude to all who have in any
way contributed to the success of this
Convention.

ously and intelligently, in the determ-
ination to make this phase of Can-
adian agriculture second in standing
,to iao country on earth. The fin"st
animals have been secured from En
rope from which country there is a
steady movement, and splendid re-
sults have been obtained under Dom-
inion conditions. Cattle imported for
improvement of stock last year total-
led 764, worth $272,694, and other
cattle 340, worth $32,567, many of
these being- dairy animals. The length

BILLIONS OF LOSS.
united States Loses 52,000,000,000
_Annually In Plant Food.
The United States loses more than
$2,000,000,000 annually in plant
food lost in the washing away of
more than a billion'and a half tons of
soil froni fields and pastures. The
washed soil contains 126,000,000,000
pounds of plant food.
Relating this loss before the House
Agricultural Appropriations Subcom-
mittee, H. H. Bennett of the Bureau
of Chemistry and Soils, said that
"erosion is removing from our flelda
twenty-one times as much plant food
every year as is taken out of the soil
by the crops removed, and this is a
minimum estimate that is obviously
small."
The farmers of the country, he de-
clared, sustain a direct loss of not less
than $200,000,000 annually through
erosion. He estimated that in the
past decade 30,000,000 acres of farin
and pasture land have been abandon-
ed .because the soil became impover-
ished by reason of the washing off
of the more •fertile top soil.
The entire country is ,affected by
soil erosion. Bennett told the com-
mittee. He added that the "problera
of soil and water conservation is in-
separably tied up with national de-
fence, farm relief, flood control, and
continuing economic permanency of
the nation."
Under the present system of farm-
ing, he declared, "the bulk of our
rolling lands will have been ruined,
or so severely impoverished that they
can maintain only a peasant type of
farming."
METEORS MISS MULTITUDES.
Only Two Kilown Cases of Persons
Being Struck.
Much is said and written regard-
ing falling meteors. Only two known
cases of persons being struck by
these heavenly missiles, are on
record.
From Japan comes the second re-
ported instance of a meteorite hitting
a lauraan being. A tiny pebble of
celestial origin seared the neck of a
three-year-old baby girl at play near
Tokio. A. tremendous number ot me-
teorites bombard the ear,h each day,
but they seldom fall within range of
civilization. There is only one fatal
accident on record, when a man was
killed in India, in 1827 by a falling
stone. The tiny stone, weighing only
a few grains, that hit the Japanese
girl was found in the child's dress,
still warm, and proved to be a typi-
cal meteorite with a black crosi,
