H. Lea, Poultry Husbandman, Ottawa Ex- perimental Farm. Green feed may be divided into two kinds, that intended for imme- diate consumption and that which is tp be held for winter use. Certain varieties, however, are grown for, both purposes, this being particularly true of grasses and leguminous plants. Among the green feeds which are to be used as soon as grown, rape holds first place by reason of its quick growth, palatability and value for cleaning and freshening the yards. The best variety is Dwarf Essex and it should be sown broad- cast. Under normal weather condi- tions it is ready for grazing from five to six weeks after being sown. Alfalfa ma cellent green feed $1.85 to $5.00 for growing stock an en cured is valuable for winter feeding. It has 40e to 95c the added advantage of being able to withstand prolonged drought. The favorite varieties are Grimm and Turkestan, Mangels or semi -sugar beets form the bulk of the green feed for Winter use; they are easily harvested, keep well and generally crop well. The Mammoth Long Red or Gate Post va- rieties are preferable, as they contain a higher percentage of dry matter. Mangels should not be fed immediate- ly after being harvested, as when very fresh they might cause bowel teouble. The Jerusalem Artichoke, and es- pecially the Mammoth French White, deserves more attention from poultry- men. Extremely hardy and prolific, it can be grown almost anywhere and under any conditions. The green shoots form abundant shade and suc- culent feed for growing stock, the closeness of the fofake helps to choke out weeds, while the tubers keep well, are relished for winter feed for lay- ing hens and early spring feed for little chicks.

We doubt if he has lost popularity, but can easi- ly understand that there, may be a - considerable body of opinion that disapproves of his steeplechasing, and would like to see him married. Had it not been for the war there is little doubt that the Prince would have been married by this time, and his wife would already have made u laudable start in rearing a brood. The war, however, liberated royal princes as much as it liberated small- er nations. They are no longer ex- pected to marry for dynastic or po- litical reasons. In fact, they are ex- pected to marry for the reasons that prompt commoners. That is to say, there is an assumption that the Prince of Wales need not marry un - ti he finds a girl without whom liv- ing would seem vain. It is true that the son and heir of a duke or an earl or any of the landed aristocracy is supposed to marry and carry on the family line, and if one of them was disinclined to marry, strong pres- sure would be brought to bear upon him. Pressure, we suppose, has been brought to bear upon the Prince of Wales, but obviously he has resisted it up to the present 'time, and, after all, there are distinct limits to the amount of pressure that can be brought to bear upon the most popu- lar man in England, and the man who will, in all probability, one day be Emperor of Great Britain and the loyal part of Ireland. A writer in the New York Times thinks that, perhaps, the Prince has travelled too much. Not since the days of the Plantagenets has there been an heir to the throne who had so much liberty. He was through the war, and he bas been round the world. He mixes with his silbjects even more than his grandfather mix- ed with them as Prince of Wales. He strolls unheralded into dinners in London smoking a cigar, and mod- estly declining' to make a speech. He is to be seen at every important boxing match, every race meet and great athletic event. As an under- graduate he was a noted foot -run- ner. and competed with other stu- d- s across -country. Now horse- riding is his hobby. Never have alts of a rider been given such -wide publicity. He sprains his enxae or perhaps fractures his collar bone. His arm is in a sling, but he goes about happy and content- ed so far as one can see, and about the last thing that is occupying his mind is the choice of a wife. A dozen girls have been named "on good authority" as being the lucky ones, but one by one they have been mar- ried, and no gloom shrouds the brow of the Prince. He fox trots gaily at their weddings, and the next day is out with the hounds. If the King and Queen disapprove of his course, they give no sign of ' R.R. No. 1, Everett, Ont.

Stories of his intention to close the gambling rooms, in view of the manner in which the principality lives on gambling, did not increase, his popularity, so when he called for the inquiry which has just terminat- ed, it was necessary for him, in the first place, to obtain very powerful financial' hacking, as he would tied the Casino funds very low. So the Prince turned to Oat amazing Char- acter, tSi Boasil Zaha off, who spends all his 'Punters at lactate Carlo, but who never has been known to gamble. Sir Basil proceeded to buy 8/00,000 worth of stock in the So- ciete des !Baine de Mer, which gave him, working in with the Prince, the rigJ jo appoint an entirely- new directed—ate, of which . Despix ie is the chief, replacing Camille 'Diane.

Zat now earrnned a new nick ly, that :of "Chief Crou, his aegis all the chief been changed and Mme. Chinon compelled to live outside the prin- cipality. Behind all these changes is the figure of the young hereditary L'uchess de Valentinois, who exerts much influence over her father, Prince Louis of Monaco, who adopt- ed her. The Duchess, who was brought up in England, has .since her enforced residence in Monte Carlo, never ceased campaigning against gambling. She , says that Monte Carlo spreads more misery Mr CARLO.GAMBLING WEATHERS THE STORM There is no intention whatever of closing either the gambling rooms in the Casino or the Sporting Club, both of which will continue to be operated under the auspices of the Societe deg Bains de Mer, a pretty camouflage title of long standing. Nor are the wild tales of scandal and suicide mord than partially true. On the other hand, it has been a dramatic season from the point of view of administr,r- tion of Monte Carlo. A crisis has been reached and passed, though few would care to say how matters will develop next year and subsequently. The persons involved, acrordimz to the New York World, are the follow- ing: H. R. H. Prince Louis of Monaco. 1L R. 11. the Duchess de Valenti- nois, his adopted daughter. Sir Basil Zafiaroff, the richest near, in Europe: Camille Blanc, for ixventy-seven veers dictator of Monte Carlo. '`Ione. Chinon, ]fiend of, Camille Blanc, Gregory Vagliano, the greatest gambler of the moment. M. A. Despierre, successor to Camille Blanc. This season's crisis really opened when Prince Louis found himself fixed in the saddle some months ago. 1Ie is a very different man from his eccentric father, who, ,so long as he was given sufficient funds by the Casino authorities to prose- cute his deep sea fishing' hobby, did not care even if it snowed in the little principality. The origin of this money is worth recalling. In 1870 one Francois Blanc, who was conducting some gambling rooms at Hamburg, had to leave the coun- try. He went to Monaco with a fat purse, there to find the reigning Prince, Charles III, de Grimaldi, more or less "broke." Already a gaming house was in existence lo- cally. Francois Blanc proceeded to buy up the place and drew a con- tract with the reigning Prince, who in return for extending Monegasque hospitality was to receive a part of the proceeds. Even thus early Blanc saw, however, difficulties a- head unless he got the entire prin- cipality in his hands. He, therefore, arranged to look after the municipal side, such as the gardens, police, etc. Business boomed, and when Blanc died in 1896 he left a huge fortune to his son Camille. ,With all Europe flocking to Monte Carlo the gamblii g continued to bring in mil./ lions of dollars annually until the war changed everything. The principal- ity became a centre for wounded sol- diers and the gambling was literally etopped for six' whole years until 1920. In 1921 a gain of only $900,000 was made, the actual sum taken be- ing $3,700,000. Last year the gain fell to $750,000. Prince Louis coming to the throne meanwhile noticed that not only had Camille Blanc more or less lost control largely through illness, but that his companion, Mme. Chinon, appeared to gamble inordinately ; also that despite the falling off in re- ceipts the expenditure was not re- duced accordingly—on the contrary. The Prince ordered an inquiry into the affairs of the Casino and Sport- ing Club. At the latter place there were additional complaints that the Greek Vagliano, who had lately pnr- -chased large shares in the Societe` des Baine de Mer, persistently held the bank at baccarat against all comers. Soon the Prince was faced with a slightly more serious situ- ation than he bad expected. It was openly stated that several people were gambling not with their own money, but with the Casino's. It was further discovered that over 8,000 employees. had been drawn into the Casino, including 550 croupiers, and that a large number of these individuals drew princely salaries for • INCORPbRAT2ID i 8 '.* Capital and Reserve'$9,000,000 Over 1125 Branches The Molsons Bank This institution offers depositors safety for their eavings, reasonable interest compound. ed every six months, and freedom from red tape in Taal of withdrawals., Savings Departmenta at every Branch.

SERIOUS PROBLEM OF TIIE PLAYFUL PRINCE Why did the marriage of the Duke of Yorli create more interest in Great Britain than any wedding since that of his father? The great popularity of the royal family, and the fact that the Prince was marrying a girl who 10, in the eyes of the law, a commoner only partly explain the great outpour- ing of popular satisfaction. One sus- pects that the bachelorhood of the Prince of Wales explains the rest. It seems to be unduly prolonged, and there are those who suspect it may become chronic, that the Prince will never marry, and that, there- fore, he will be followed on the throne by his brother, or, perhaps, his nephew. We have read articles MRSI ANDERSON TELLS WOMEN How Backache and Periodic Pains Yield to Lydia E. Pink - ham's Vegetable Compound Leslie, Sask.—" For about a year I was troubled with a distressing down - bearing pain before and during the pe- riods. and from terrible headaches and backache. I hated to go to a doctor, and as I knew several women who had taken Lydia E. Pinkhamei Vegetable Compound with good results, I finally bought some and took four bottles of it. I certainly do recommend it to every woman with troubles like mine. I feel fine now and hope to be able to keep yodr, medicine on hand at all times, as no woman ought to be without it in the house." — Mrs. OSCAR A. ANDERSON, Box 15, Leslie, Sask. Mrs. Kelsey Adds Her Testimony Copenhagen, N. Y. — "I read your advertisement in the papers and my husband induced me to take Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound to get relief from pains and weakness. I was so weak that I could not walk at times. Now I can do my housework and help my husband out doors, too. I am willing for you topublish this letter if you think it will help others."—Mrs. HERBERT KELSEY, R.F.D., Copenhagen, N. Y. Sick and ailing women everywhere in the Dominion should try Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound before they give up hope of recovery. O be cause, as the Times writer says, the Government must be rather uneasy. Should anything happen to him, the writer believes that the English people would illogically blame the Government, and, perhaps, turn it out of power. At the same time, a hint that the Prince had ceased rid- ing because of the displeasure of Mr. Bonar Law might easily cost the Government seats at a by-election. It is an open secret that the venture- someness of the Prince in France, at the front, was a source of the utmost anxiety to the officers who had charge of him. He did not regard himself as the heir to the throne, merely as an active young Englishman who de- sired to do his bit—and then a bit, As the Times writer says, to give the royal clan bare justice it has never lacked courage. George II, at the Battle of Dettingen, strutted un- der fire, and recklessly rode among cannon balls. He survived Ouden- arde, and when people turned Bale at the arrival of the Pretender ,he said "Pooh! D,on't talk to me that stuff!" When Napoleon III visited Victoria, and there were fears that he would be assassinated, the Queen never left his side. Her pulse did not quicken a beat at attempts on her own life. King Edward rode to hounds, and risked -his life killing tigers. When an attempt was made on his life at Brussels he remained calmly seated in his carriage, and immediately cabled the Queen that all was well. King George showed his courage by opening the Durbar at Delhi, and the Northern Parla- ment' at Belfast, facing hundreds who desired his death. It is only natur- al, therefore, that the Prince of Wales should be rather attracted than repelled by a sport that offers serious rtk to life and limb. He leaves the worrying to those who do not feel the thrill of the last water jump. PREMIER DRURY KEEPS TABS ON HIS SPECTACLES The great mass of clerical work that comes before a cabinet leader at Queen's Park has forced Premier Drury to take to wearing spectacles, but the premier has no great liking for them. He has a habit of forget- ting them as he moves around. Not long ago Mr. Drury took a short walk around Queen's Park after dinner. On returning to his office the spectacles were missing, and a great search for them began. Drawers were piilled out, papers removed and blue -books lifted, but no spectacles could be found. The House would soon begin. The situation grew serioua. Mr. Drury wrinkled hie brow and thought hard. He had itl The spectacles were found where he bad left them when starting out on his walk.
