Glen Hamilton, who tells the story: "On seeing the amount of finger he bad lost we went to the store to re- cover the fragment. Further, delay was occasioned by our inability to find it, but finally on: ransacking the Fon- tents of an. undelivered ;parcel we lo: rated the piece of finger with : its cut Surface agebet a:, slice of ceelied..ham. "It was by this tale fully rhea An hour after the accident, ` bat. somatic death does not always take place' very suddenly, and eeverai features in the ease gave promise of, the viability of the fragment, and made it seem ad - viable to replace '/t. Several condi- tiens •favored siiceess. The cut had been made by a very sharp knife edge • ,causing little trauma of a, crushing nature to the tissues; the man was a healthy subject and his hands were in good condition; moreover the meat was cookedand therefore practically sterilized. Against one of the prob- ably sterile surfaces of a slice the cut surface of finger fragment had been stored by kind fate till faun ., and the chance for sepsis in the case was therefore considerably reduced. An excellent blood supply to the finger also gave prospect of ample nutrition to.the one side of the graft contact. "Therefore, in spite of the fact that the fragment had been remover for over half an hour and was cold and 'bloodless, the possibility of it growing seemed reasonable, and if attended with success it meant -prob- ably a more speedy recovery, an ab- sence of deformity, and a better ulti- mate tactile sense, which was a most important consideration for the right index finger. To reduce the possibil- ity of contamination from contact -with the cooked meat the fragment of Inger was washed in normal saline before replacing. No sutures were -used, only a slender ribbon of gutta percha tissue wrapped about the fin- ger kept all in place. Recovery went on uninterruptedly. The only part hesitant of a healing was the thin edge of the fragment where the en- tering edge of the knife had Crushed the tissue more than elsewhere. It Blow requires close inspection of the finger to locate the graft. Sensation is practically nornial." The storekeeper is proud of his re- paired finger; the doctor had an in- teresting problem to solve, and solved it with success; and the housewife who had ordered a pound of cooked ham for her husband's supper was, by the doctor's assidnity in searching for the missing piece of flesh, depriv- ed of the sensation of finding a bit of human flesh in her parcel of cooked ham. Therefore, everybody concern- ed is happy. LARGEST HORSE FARM IN EASTERN CANADA When the Cap Range Experimental Station was established, in 1911, the Dominion Department of Agriculture decided that French Canadian horses should be bred there. The follow- ing yeas a few choice mares were bought, among which was Helene, due to foal in the Spring of 1912. She dropped Albert de Cap Rouge, now admitted to be the best stallion of the breed. When only 22 months old, Albert was used. on the small but select band of matrons and, from the very first, it was easily seen that he 'vas an excellent and a prepotent sire. Encouraged by the quality of the growing youngsters, the Department •etrlarged operations until there was insufficient land available at Cap Rouge. At that time the French Canadian Horse Breeders' Association strongly backed by the Provincial Department of Agriculture, offered to furnish a suitable farm for twenty years if the Federal Department would carry on all operations, and shortly after some 500 acres of land were leased from the Quebec Semin- ary at .Saint Joachim, 25 miles east of Quebec City. Thirty brood mares were then bought, with the intention of starting investigational work in the breeding, feeding, housing and management of 'horses, also with the aim of regener- ating the French Canadian breed. Operations were gradually enlarged until about 199 head, young and old, were kept, this number being decided upon as the maximum. From 15 to 25 mares drop foals each year, and the Saint Joachim Horse Farm is re - gored as the largest of its kind in Canada, east of Manitabo. Among the projects are a compari- son of inbreeding, line breeding and out -crossing, the cost of horse labor, the cost of raising colts until of work- ing age; wintering idle horses cheap- ly; wintering young stock in single - boarded, open -front sheds; work versus no work for brood mares rais- ing autumn foals. Incidentally, val- uable information is gathered, for Inatome, a mare bought in foal to an outside stallion, dropped a colt which had to be gelded lbecause a cull, which the next year, to the service of Albert de Cap Rouge, she gave a. youngster which has since been a winneir at the largest exhibitions. This shows the value of a good stal- 'ri4Jn.

There are twenty-three families left, but it is probable that at least ten of these will be die= carded before "five year. This con- s'tlt,'u,tes very vigid ',election, and it xg'ht 'be interpr t,ert that not many French :'Caanaiilan mares are good for br'eeriin?:' purposes. However, .practically all breeds would un- doubtedly be greatly improved by more rigid selection. To many scrub pure-breds exist, with only a registration certificate to help them along. Four strains have been isolated, each of good quality and develop- ment, which breed true. One of them has the typical low set, thick confor- mation of the breed, lacking some- what, though, in appearance and gait; another has weight—a four- year-old stallign tipping the scalels at over 1,500 pounds—but, lacks fin- ish; another has splendid action and gait, nearly as good as that of a Hackney, with a little less excessive- ly high action, hut this family is somewhat longer in the body, and higher from the ground than is de- sirable; still another has all the fin- ish of a Morgan or a fancy Standard - bred, but lacks size.
