DOOMED WARSHIP HAS LAST TILT AT A BRIDGE The stability of the famous Srispen- sion Bridge of Montroise—a picture- sque structure that spans the estuary of the South -EA,' and is the only direct outlet for road trajlic to the south—has been endangered by a re- markable accident. The cause of the trouble was the nine -sweeper Irvine, which had Ar- rived at the port from Harwich for demalftion. The ex -admiralty vessel, which was in taw of a steam tug, came up the rifer on a half - flood tide. -She was in the course of being berthed at the jettey by some means —probably by the wire rope connect- ing the two vessels slipping off the "bits" on board the mine -sweeper— she got adrift. The .tide promptly took charge of the. now derelict • craft, and carried her up the river toward the Suspen- sion Bridge, into which she crashed broadside on. Reconiing wedged between the und- er structure of the • bridge and the 'water, the vessel with the rising- tide forced the'bridge to yield upward for some four' feet, and it 'was not until the tide had • ebbed sufficiently that the. ere-*at'ship could be. extribated ib7n t,'he.„p sition in which it had be- come fixed. It was thgGdseen that, the woodwork. 'under the Fridge. had been smashed on an exte ice scale, the main long- •3tlidin ai• b along the east side being a the more vital parts 'af- fected. • CURRENT wrr AND WISDOM ''h$, cdid,t t Bellows loudest does sot" "alra}gs"ves the most milk.

Generally speaking, a person in good health can digest most foods. If not, and there is pain after eating, the stomach has lost tone and is too, weak to do its work. In that'•case your stomach needs strengthening and the way to do this is to build up your bleed with Dr. Williams'• Pink Pills. There cannot be good digestion without a sufficient supply of good red blood, and there is nothing better than Dr. Williams' Pink Pills to re- new and enrich the blood. That is why they have proved .so successful in thousands of cases of indigestion. Mr. D. J. Shaw; Selkirk Road, P.E.I., has provedthe value of Dr. Williams' Pink Pills in a severe case of indi- gestion and relates 'his experience for the benefit of other sufferers. He says:—"I suffered from indigestion for a. number of years. My case was so bad that words fail to describe it. MYappetite Was gone, constipation was present and my nerves were all on edge. I could not sleep well at night, and the world was a dark spot to me. I tried a number of remedies, but without any benefit. Then Dr. Williams' Pink 'Pills were recommended, but without moth' faith after so many failures, Iadecided :to try them,' After taking three boxes I- noticed a change for the better. Then • I got three boxes more; and ;found I had a genuine' remedy. " I continued the treatment, took moder- ate exercise, could take good- plain food without suffering as formerly, and proved -that these pills make good blood, and that this good blood will restore the stomach and nerves. Any- one suffering from stomach or nerve troubles will make no mistake in giv- ing Di. Williams' Pink Pills a fair trial."

PREPARING THE POTATO LAND A friable loam soil is best suited for the potato. 'It should„ be fairly •fertile• and have good natural drain- age. Potatoes can be grown suc— cessfully on soils of varying physical. character if good preparation is giv- en, ample drainage provided, and cultivation. continued ' during/ the, growing period to conserve moisture' should the summer be dry. A sandy'. loam well supplied with, humus gives the yielding soil texture desired; the humps retains moisture and prevents, excessive soil temperature. The clover plant with its deep and exten- sive root system is best for turning. an unyielding soil into a friable loam and no plant so thoroughly stooks the soil to a good depth with vegetable smatter or humus for thecrop to follow. A clover sod is the best for' potatoes. The best, crops of clover are grown on limed lands, but an excess of lime tends to produce scab- by potatoes. This is particularly true if stable manure.is• used, but if,com- mercial fer,tttiliteronly is used ' the danger is muck lessened because the acid phosphatein the fertilizer tends toward an acid reaction which- does not favor the development of the pota, to scab organism.

These may -be grass or gravel -at the discretion of the grow- er. If ,they are to be of gravel, re- move six inches of the surface grass on soil (more if you care to) and re- place with gravel. The space assign-. ed to the lawn should be dug over and may be seeded to grass. in April or early in May. Assuming there is grass already present and in fair con-. dition, cut it es short as possible and spread over it thin layer of rotten manure and fine soil.' If swept a- bout at weekly interyals, this will work in. the uneven parts knd level the ground. A Good Beginning. Whether it is intended to grnw flowers, fruits or vegetables, the ground should be spaded to a depth of 18 inches at least, or better still, trenched to It depth of 1% to 2 feet, and rough strawy manure worked in- to the bottom soil. With the surface eighteen inches, well rotten manure and bone meal shen,ld be incorporat- ed. A good beginningtrna1Fes all the difference •in the ultimate success or failure of a garden. The next procedure will be to de- cide where the hedges, if the space warrants'them, are to be, to separate the vegetable p1 1- from the flower borjlers and lawn. 'There are several good evergreens a, ailable for this purpose.

FARM DRAINAGE The 'drainage of farm lands should receive increased attention. Many farms and even whole districts are not as fertile and productive as they would be if drained. A drainage sys- tem is essentlil in this humid, tem- perate zone of heavy rainfalls. For- tunately throughout the greater part of Eastern Canada there is adequate natural drainage. The land is roll- ing or hilly. The suace formation is more or less porous and water, even after the heaviest rains of sum- mer, disappears within 24 hours from the surface of the soil. There are many farms that have fairly good natural drainage, but not sufficient to remove the water quickly after heavy rains and spring fresh- ets. These can usually be greatly im- proved by a system of surface drains including the • plowing of fields lands so that each dead furrow may be a drain with a definite outlet. Heavy soils and lands that lie so that the natural drainage cannot eas- ily' be determined usually require un- derdrainage. 'A soil is frequently cold and wet on account ofan im- pervious subsoil. Other soils are of very little agricultural value because of seepage. The tile draining of such as these is a valuable perman- ent improvement to the .farm. It will enable the farmer to seed his crop earlier and to grow healthier apd much larger crops. It will be better than insurance' against drought and spring frosts. It -will increase profits and save valnable fertilizing ingredients from being washed 'from the surface of the soil. For any drainage work a sketch or map is essential. Oa it should be placed the data obtained from a sur- vey of the surface of the farm, eqn- tours marked and drains located; then it served as a permanent record and will save time and labor in future drainage work. A number .of perm- anent land -marks should bed located . and and measurements marked on rthe map from theae to the underdrains.. In laying out systems of tile it" is important to keep the slope or fall as uniform as possible. It should not be less than.2 inches per 1)00 feet, and where chhnged suddenly a silt basin should be built.
