SfflJT THE 111P Prof. Knight Would Imprison All Imbecile Persons. How He Would Improve the People of This Dominion. Kingston despatch — In lecturing be- fore Queen's 'Theological Alumni. Con- ference to -day on the "Conservation of Life," Prof. A. P. knight dealt with heredity. Everything possible, hu said, should be done to rid Can- ada of imbeciles. This could be done by education, by instilling into the general public higher ideals of what is meant by the perfect man and the perfect woman, so that men and wo- men in selecting life partuers will be guided by that policy. 11 will be slow work, the lecturer said, but in the end a hardier race would result. Family stock was improved ley the help of the law shutting up imbeciles. This idea should be extended. All imbe- citee are not in asylums, but they should be hunted . up and placed in confinement, as Hon. Mr. Hanna has been trying to do for the past few years. Professor Knight declared that the pauper who could not provide for his family should be shut up in a piddle building and detained there for life, and so eliminate the unfit from the life of the nation. Canada, 11e said, should take every means of improving the national vitality of the race. In illustrating what the crim- inal imbecile wee, Prof. Knight made reference to McNulty, the Barrie man, convicted of murder. After tete sen - tepee Dr. ltyan, of Kingston, saw the murderer, and offered hitt leis sympathy in his awful position, and asked him if he did not reitlize hie position, to which McNulty re:elicd: "Not by a — sight."

For instance, 36 pounds of butter fat, when made into butter, the quantity would be sial pounds more, or 42 pounds of churned butter. Moat creameries work on this basis, Whether there is fraud in com- puting the value of the create at the creamery depends upon the character of the men The amount of butter to be secured. from the create depends upon the butter fat content of that cream. If cream tests 30 per cent. of butter fat, from 100 pounds of such cream 42 pounds of butter will be churned. . Dr, Beal, of the Michigan Experiment Station, in an address not long ago, laid the e following 10 rules as necessary to make a growth of alfalfa for a period of 10 years or more: 1. Select land that is deeply drained, Swampy lands or soils in which the hard pan comes very close to the surface will not make a pro- per place for alfalfa. 2. Prepare the land as for a crop of wheat. 3. If the soil is not alkaline, apply air -slacked lime. 4. Sow about four pounds of good clean seed to the acre at the tune of corn planting, or else early in August, if the soil is moist then. 5. With alfalfa seed sow orchard grass or tall oat grass, about a peel: each to the acre. Excellent results may also be obtained by adding two pounds of timothy seed. O. Linder no circumstances should a so- called nurse crop be sown. 7. If nodules are not produced, on the roots, inoculate with soil containing them.. 8, Clip young growth from one to three tines. 9. Cut, when a few plants of alfalfa are first in bloom. 10. Leave a moderate growth in the fall as a mulch. Professor E. B, Hart,' of the Univer- sity of Wisconsin, says farmers need to be cautioned generally against the use of wood ashes and lime with mance. The ashes noel lime prodttee nn alkaline con- dition, resulting in the loss of the atn- tnortia which carries off the nitrogen. This point has not been sufficiently em- phasized, and many well-meaning farm - era lieve'ttsed: ashes .ttnd lime" with man- ure to' disadvantage.; The. lime and ashes if needed by the soil Should be put on in other years titan those ite Which farm Manure is applied.

Washington, Oct. 31, --Action on the Government of the Province of Quebec prohibiting the exportation of pulp wood cut on its crown lands under lease from and after May 1, 1910, and on set- tlers' lands taken up from and after Sept. 1, 1910, will not have the effect of reducing the quantity of pulp wood for export for years to come, and per - 'haps never, according to Consul General \Villrich, of Quebec. who has made a report on the subject to the United States Government. U. S. Consul \Villrich says: "From a► very conservative estimate there are over 2,000,000 acres in forest ]ande ou the Seeiguories in Quebec, and about 3,000,000 acres of patented and located lands, none of 'which will be subjected to the prohibition. This would approx. itnately give 50,000,000 cords of pulp wood free to the United States, which ;ritftans :that r0. can "supply the ;United .
