FORESTS
The most powerful radio receiving
set in Canada equipped with eighteen
tubes, has been installed by the Mar-
coni Company on the Forest Exhibits
Car of the Canadian Forestry Associ-
ation which started this week on its
1023 tour of fifteen thousand miles.
The radio set will not only serve to
entertain the evening audiences gath-
ered to listen to the forest protection
lectures bol during the day radio
talks on forest fire prevention and
allied topics will be broadcasted from
Montreal and other points every few
hours so that the crowds visiting the
car will be reached -no matter where
the itinerary may lead. The Forestry
Car radio set will catch any station
in North America.
HIGHER TEA PRICES
•
EXPLAINED
The Salida Tea Company. the larg-
ceet distributors of tea in Canada, re-
cently announced an increase in pride
on each o' their blends. Thio course
was forced upon them, according to
information received about the situa-
tion, in order to maintain the quality
of "SALADA" Tea, when paying the
highest prices ever recorded on the
primary markets for the unblended
leaf. The story of riots on the tan
plantations, dock strikes in Calcutta
to delay shipping, and the difficulty
to obtain coolie labor to pluck the
tea from the bushes, all bring home
to us the fact that the social unrest
that has ieen everywhere apparent
since the war, has spread even to the
remotest tea gardens of India.

(Special) —"In the Autumn of 1920
I suffered so greatly from rheumatism
in the hip and pains in the back, that
at times it prevented me from walk-

Mr. Michel Roy, who lives here,
makes the above statement. He feels
that he owes it to other sufferers of
rheumatism to tell how he found re-
lief from his suffering,

BANFF -WINDERMERE ROAD
OPENS IN JUNE
The Minister of the Interior has
set the date for the opening of the
Banff -Windermere motor highway
through the Canadian Rockies for
traffic for Saturday, June 30th. The
official ceremony will take place about
noon at Vermilion Crossing, a point
midway Banff,
mid e e w b two n
Alberta, and
Windermere, British Columbia. It is
proposed that motorists from the east
or Banff end of the road and from
the west or Windermere end should
leave their respective points early
enough in the morning of that date
to meet at the Crossing at noon in
time for the ceremony.
The new highway, which forms the
connecting lirk in the 6;000 mile
"Grand Circle Tour," through West-
ern Caneda and the United States,

was completed last fall -and the en.
gineers expect that by the end of
June everything will be in readineas
for the opening and the summer traf-
fic.
The new road is built through the
heart of some of the finest scenery In
the Rockies, seventy-three miles of it
being through virgin mountain and
forest country where many of the
peaks as yet bear no name. One of
the unique features of the road is
that it crosses two mountain passes.
The main range of the Rocky Moun-
tains is traversed via the Vermilion
pass at an altitude of 5,600 feet and
later the road is carried over the
Brisco range through the Sinclair
pass at an elevation of 4,950 feet.
The grades, however, are easy, the
average being 3 per cent.' A grade
of 9 per cent. is the maximum and '
this occurs only at one point over a
stretch of about 400 feet.

DOMINION DEI'ARTMENTTOF AG:
RiCULTURE TO IMPORT LIVE
STOCK
Five Shire horses as well as a
number of sheep and swine, and, per-
haps, a few cattle, are to be imported
for breeding purposes into Canada
from Great Britain by the Dominion
Department of Agriculture this year.
The horses are being donated to the
Gutor•nment by the Shire Horse So-
ciety of Great Britain. The Director
of Experimental_ Farms and the Do-
minion Animal Husbandman hay
saiied for England to assist in making
the selections of the horses at the
London Horse Show to be held on the
22nd and 23rd of February. It is
intimated that these horses will forth
the nucleus of a large stud of Shires
to he maintained at ane of the west-
ern ' Experimental Stations. Tho
hcgt to be imported will include
Yorkshire, Tamworth and Berkshire
boars of bacon type.
While overseas, occasions will be
taken by Mr. Archibald, the Director
of the Experimental Farms System,
to visit Denmark and make an in-
vestigation of the bacon swine in-
duetry, more particularly with regard
to breeding and feeding methods
employed in that country.
WINTER HARD ON BABY
The winter season is a hard one on
the baby. He is more or less confin-
ed to stuffy ,badly ventilated rooms.
It is so often stormy that the mother
does not get him out in the fresh air
as often as she should. He catches
colds which rack his little system; his
stomach and bowels get out of order
and he becomes peevish and cross. To
guard against this the mother should
keep a box of Baby's Own Tablets in
the house. They regulate the stomach
and bowels and break up colds. They
are sold by medicine dealers or by
mail at 25 cents a box from 'The Dr.
Williams' Medicine Co,, Brockville,

ALFALFA AS A HOG FEED
The feeding value of alfalfa for
'hogs. has been demonstrrited in num-
erous instances, but it would not
seem amiss at the present time to
offer a brief discussion on the matter.
Because of its suitability in a variety
of forms, it has proven to be a bonn
to the hog raiser.
When used in the fm -m of green
feed either as a soiling or pasture
crop, when cured and used as hay.
or ground into meal, it has been
found that almost invariably this
feed has taken a foremost place when
cempared with the other legumes
In the cured Ist.O.te as hay it 15 par-
1ietrlarly well adapted to meet t!
requirements of mature hogs as a
roughage. The hogs consume only
the finer portions of the sterns noel
the leaves and it is, therefore, very
important when harvesting this Woe
to preserve as many of the leaves as
possible.
Analysis shows that Alfalfa con•
tains upwads of 16 per cent. of crude
protein and about 8.5 per cent. of min-
eral matter or ash. Both these con-
stitutents are relatively important and
i in the case of the former, forms one
of the most expensive constituents of
the ration. When thus procured from
alfalfa hay, which is a relatively in-
' expensive source, it permits of n ma-
terial reduction in the cost of the ra-
tion of mature stock.
There is little advantage to he gain-
ed from chopping alfalfa or grinding
it into meal except for
young i z
Y g P g,
because of the fact that the increased
value has not proven sufficiently great
' to offset the additional, cost. In the
case of young pigs, however, which
are incapable of handling any ap-
preciable quantity of roughage, al-
. fnlfa can be used in the form of meal
Ito good advantage.
Because of the peculiar limitations
of the hog in the handling of rough -
ages this class of stock cannot mak'
substantial gains nn alfalfa pasture
/Ilene without the audition of conren-
frates. Some form of areal is neres-
ssry in order to produce erommnirel
gsins. Experimental results have
shown that when on alfalfn pnstore
the most. economical as well as 1he
most rapid gains are realized when
k.ar'f.i.,a, s'A4$
�b!'I•e"Il xdt,�
ui►llf lifted for every pout o$ ga
in live weight. it was farther found'.
that the most economical gaina on
alfalfa pasture are obtained' from
lugs which.yveigh in the proximity of
100 pounds when placed on the pas•
tore.
it is a generally accepted fact that
somewhat greater gains May be ob-
tained where a system of soiling is
practised than when hogs are pastur-
ed,but the ,not inconsiderable addi-
tional labor and expense involved in
the produgtion of pork by this meth-
od beirig fully as expensive when
cornliared on the basis of cost per
pound of gain in live weight. •

INFLUENZA LEAVES
THE BLOOD THIN
'1b Restore Full Health Tonic
Treatment is Recommended.
Probably the most treacherous
trouble that afflicts the people of
Canada during the winter months is
influenza -or la grippe, as it is often
called. The disease is treacherous,
because often after the characteristic
symptoms of the trouble have disap-
peared it leaves behind it a weakened
and debilitated constitution which
makes the victim an easy prey to
Other troubles. All this is due to the
fact that the attack of influenza has
Left the blood abnormally weak and
thin. Weak blood means impaiikd di-
gestion, a feeling of tiredness after
slight exertion, and often a nervous
breakdown. This condition will con-
tinue until the blood is restored to a
rich, red, disease resisting condition.
For the purpose of enriching and
stimulating the blood no other medi-
cine equals Dr, Williams' Pink Pints.
These pills act directly upon the blood
ani through the blood upon the nerves
and in this way act as a restorative
to the whole system. Thousands
throughout Canada have proved the
value of Dr. Williams' Pink Pills in
cases of this kind, among them is
:Mss Ida M. Fraser, R. R. No. 2, Thes-
sa:lnm, Ont., who says: "f passed
through a severe attack of influenza
which left me pale ,thio and weak.
Indeed I was so weak 1 could searcele
stand upon my feet. The medicine 1
wan taking in the hope of bringing
back my health did not help ate, and
i was greatly discouraged. Finally 1
dr sided to try Dr. Williams' Pink Pills
amt from the time I had taken the
Pest box my health began to improve.
1 used six be altogether, and found
as a result that,.I was again strong
and healthy, and letlaink,that in cas-
es of this kind they are worth their
weight in gold."
If you have passed through an at-
tack of influenza, your speediest way
to regain full strength is through the
fair use of Dr. Williams' Pink Pills.
l'ue can get these pills through' any
medicine dealer, or by mall at 50e

cine Co., Brockville, Ont.
THE FROG LAKE MASSACRE
The Canadian National Parks
Branch of the Department of the
Interior propose to include in their
historic sites series the cemetery at
Frog Lake, situated about ten miles
north of the Saskatchewan river and
fcrty-two miles from Lloydntinster,
where occurred the most tragic in-
cident of the Riel Rebellion of 1885,
the massacre of the officials of the
Indian Department and of the priests
of the Roman Catholic mission by the
Indians under the chief, Big Bear.
In 1906 the bodies of the victims were
removed from their 'various burial
pieces by the Northwest Mounted Po-
lice into a small cemetery nearby
where each grave was marked with
an iron cross bearing the name of
the victim and the date of the disas-
ter. It is now proposed to mark the
site -in more permanent fashion by
sc•me form of memorial which will
bear the standard bronze tablets of
the Canadian National Historic Site.;
and testify to the national care of
the burial places of,these unfortunate
victims of the Northwest. Rebellion
