The Huron Expositor, 1919-08-29, Page 2• BE HURON EXPOSITOR SMOKE -LOVING AN/MALS Curiou* stories are told by soldiers who have returned from the East of the extraordinary love of tobacco pos- sessed: by camels and dromedaries. It is said that they can be made to do almost .anything under its influence. The driver carries a triangular piece of wood, which is pierced at one point like a cigar holder. This _is inserted in the beast's xnoutia, the cigar being then lit and pressed into the hole. The camel immediately closes its eyes and puffs away through its mouth and nostrils till the cigar is entirely con- sumed. It seems thoroughly to en- joy the experience. Furthermore, the nicotine appears to exercise a stimulating and refresh- ing effect upon the animal, so that, though ready to all apliearances to drop from fatigue before its, smoke, it will plod on for many more miles after it.

WINTER wheat is one of the , great cash crops of 011a . • tario. It has been found by farm surveys In the Unit- ed' States and Canada. that in verY many einstanees, even in the live stock districts, cash crops can _fre- ,,quently be grown to great advantage.. -Ontario Is an important producer of winter wheat, especially of the white varieties which yield well and bring good prices for pastry, 'breakfast foods, etc. Winter wheat can be- grown Betio- faetorily on a variety of soils. It thrives particularly . well, howe-ver, on a rich loam containing a con,. siderable amount of vegetable mat- ter. This crop fills an important place in the rotation and generally thrives well after bea.ns, peas, and espeeiallY after a clover sod or a bare -summer fallow. In experiments ' conducted at Guelph the winter wheat 'which has been sown about the end of Augulat or in the ftist week of Serotember haa given the most satisfactory results. If the land is in. especially good con- dition, as in the case of a summer fallow, the seeding might be delayed a little later. In sowing winter wheat it is important to use large, plump, sound; well matured seed of strong vitality at the rate of about Aix pecks per acre on average soil. -The Dawson's Golden Chaff haS been the popular winter wheat Of Ontario for :x. number of years past. It iS very stiff in the straw and us- ually furnishes a high yield per acre. A new variety called the 0. A. C. No.' 194, originated at, the Ontario. Agsienitural College front a cross of the Dawson's Golden Chaff and the Bulgarian, is very promiiing. In the past six years it'has produced an an- nual average yield of grain per acre of 45 bushels, while the Dawson's Golden Chaff for the same period has produced 40.8 bushels and the Bul- garian 37.5 bushels-. It has also tak- en the lead over Ontario in the co- operative experiments in each of • the past two years. 'This variety will again be distributed in the fall of the present year for co-ope.rative ex- periments over Ontario to be tested -with one or two other varieties in plots one rod vride by two rods long.

LEMON JUICE IS A SKIN WHITENER BANK NOTE PAPER MADE BY A SECRET' PROCESS Many years ago an ingenious indi- vidual discovered a way of splitting five pound notes in two. This man put together a wonderful maChine which would not• only split notes but print upon the plain pieces. The average man who has the good fortune to finger a "fiver" knows little 'or nothing concerning its ananufacture and it will probably interest 'him tO know that the printing of notes is done by the "Old Lady of Threadneedle Street." The actual paper, however, upon Which the notes are printed is made by a process which is known only to the manufacturers. So well has the secret been guarded that the Most skilful note printers in the trade do not understand how it is turned out, and it is certain that they are not likely to. No forger has yet been able to make a spurious. paper of the same quality with the same water mark. The paper when it reaches the bank, is of the size of two notes, and each individual piece is tested in order to discover the strength. Every fragment of paper which enters the printing de- partment of the bank is checked so that it is impossible for an employee to -destroy one witheut it being known to those in authority. The printing machines are fitted with ingenious contrivances which automatically register the mtmber of notes printed, and each machine is capable of turning out no fewer than two hundred arid fifty notes in five That the note -printing .department of the bank is kept busy can be gather- ed from the fact that on an average over eighty thousand notes are paid into the bank every day it is open, and that one year's accumulation of cancelled notes amounts to about twenty 'million pounds. All notes that are returned to the bank are put "out of action" by a machine which cuts off the signa- ture of the, chief cashier, and the snipped notes are packed into sacks and carried away tb a store room where they are allOwed to remain for five years, Notwithstanding the im- mense quantity of notes that are is- sued annually by the Bank of Eng land, every' individual note has its oWn. place in the registers.

The Importance of Storing All Hata vesting' Tools and Mach- inery After Use. The importance of storing all har- vesting tools and' machinery after use is an economic factor stilr te be realized by a very large percenIage of farmers. Much of this apathy on the part of the farmer towards the proper care and management of his farm equipment is due in a large mea,sure to the lack of appreciation of the fact that tools and machines cannot give maximum of efficiency when allowed to become ooated with dirt and rust. The firs' t reeuisite in this direction is to properly house them. This abo've all is the most impor- tant. It ,is needless to show the rapid deterioration' of steel, iron, wood, canvas, or, anything that gees into the construction of farm Ma- chines, when they are 'out of doors and exposed tict the elements. Of course, the fan ors conditioning their life and working efficiency are cor- rosion of the metals entering into the paint and varnishes from the same cause, and the decay of the wooden parts due to heat and mois- .. ture.

THE DISABLED SOLDIER -PAST A ND .PRESENT "The new methods now being used . by the United States and other coun- tries to restore the disabled soldier to a happy and productive life bring into strong.contrast the fate of the disabl- ed soldier in olden times, says Douglas .c . litleMurtrie, director of the Red Cross Institute for crippled and di- abled men. He claims.that historians have done very little to lift the, veil that covers the' fate of the disabled soldier in antiquity. In view of the limitations of piimitive medical and surgical, science, and of the system of dispatching the enemy wounded after the field had been 'won, there is every reason to believe 'that it is a bloody veil. It -is recorded, however, that an- cient Athens fed its disabled soldiers at the state's expense, and that Rome under Augustus paid. for the keep of its disabled legionaries out- of public funds. During the Crusades, Saint Louis of France, returning with hi,s shattered hosts, established an asylum for some 300 soldiers blinded by the "Asiatic sun," In most cases; however, the disabled soldier was„ thrown upon pri- vate charity for support. This duty devolved upon the lord who had brought his vasSals to the king, and upon the monasteries. . With the crumbling of the feudal system, and .the development of stand- ing armies during the fifteenth ,cen- tury, the professional soldier came into being. And from the time on, the disabled soldier was a recognized type. Some of them found refuge as lay -monks in monasteries, but the monastic life was not usually to their liking, and they were often driven to joining the ranks of beggars and cut- throats- with which the countryside was infested. In Queen Elizabeth's time, the captains of forces in Flan- ders complained that they were ex- pected to make provision for the sick and wounded "w -hose charge lay heav- ily on them." The queen was "trou- bled whenever she took the air by these miserable creatures " Toward the end of her reign, steps were taken to provide for "mainied, hurt, or griev- ously. sick soldiers," but little good was accomplished. Later came the establishment of the great Hotel! des invalides, in Paris, by Louis the XIV, known as the Magni- ficent. This housed 4,000 pensigners at a time, and is still in existence. The. Royal hospital at Chelsea, in England; for disabled soldiers, was founded by Charles 11 in imitation of the French king. In . connection. with these tWo institutions arose the French and English system of pensions, wkicla, however, have had to be considerably amended under the stress of the late war. It is pleasant to be able to say that no nation has hitherto been so gener- , ous in its provision for the disabled. soldier as the United Statee of Amer- t Ica. Plymouth colony, founded in 1620, passed its first pension legislation in i 1636, providing that any man who i shbuld be 'sent forth as a soldier *was tolbe maintained competently the rest of his life. The other colonies soon followed suit. General Washington had' the pension question much at heart, though he had a hard time per- suading congress to live up to its ob- ligations. Our first pension bill as a nation was passed in 1792, a`lid, as everyone knows, since the Civil War the provisions for soldiers' pensions have been unusually liberal. One other feature deserves mention. This feature is the state and federall soldiers' homes. The former nurnber in excess of 30, all told; in some of them the wives, mothers, widows, sis- ters or daughters of the beneficiaries are maintained, as well as the disabled and invalided soldiers themselves. The . total number of individuals maintain- ed in these state institutions is about 11,000. The number cared for in the federal homes has varied between 18,000 and 30,000. The .new way in which the United States provides for its disabled sol- diers is not, however, merely a ques- tion of pensions. It provides the pen- sion first, and then the education by which the soldier can earn a good living over and above his pension. In many cases, indeed, the crippled sol- dier is able to earn more money than he did when uninjAred-which is as it should be, for these men' deserve the higher places in the industrial scale.
