In the absence of any evidence supporting this theory, the answer must be in the negative. On the other hand there is plain evidence that a great variety of com- paratively mild irritants, such as to- bacco, soot, tar, certain lubricating oils, etc., will produce cancer in some persons. But recent experimental in- vestigation has shown that in some, at least, of these irritants there is a specific cancerproducing agent. This agent in a few instances has been is- olated. Cancer attacks on the average, one adult person out of every ten in a given eomrcnunity. This Probably means that one of every ten is more susceptible than the other nine to this nmlady. The' irritant Which may be n Jc:. ns 44 eGsii, in operation in all of the ten affects only the one who is susceptible to cancer. WINTHROP Don't forget the euchre and dance this Friday night. The play, "The Colonel's Maid,' put on by S. S. No. 6 on Tuesday evening in the hall was well attended'. Those taking part did real well. Mr. Fergus Bullard has secured the position of linesman at Kintore and intends moving at the end of the month. Moreover, the irritant to be effec- tive in provoking cancer must be ap- plied over a period of years,. If tar is painted on the skin of a mouse daily for three months, almost inevit- ably the mouse will develop a cancer of the skin. Three months in a mouse's life means about 15 years in the life of a man, so 15 years and up- wards is the interval required to pro- voke cancer -In a susceptible person. The effect of a given irritant in caus- ing cancer persists long after the ir- ritant itself has been withdrawn. No tumour has ever been experi- mentally produced in animals by a single injury. If a single trauma has been the 'exciting cause of a cancer in man, it must be very rare and in such a ease one thinks that some pre- cancerous condition 'must .have exist- ed at the site of injury. The ,moral is "avoid"irritants that my excite can- cer." Next article — "Carcinogenic Ag- ents."

Good grass, rich and smooth enough to real of the famous turf of the Old Country, is, not a difficult feat, experts declare, though they admit that some care is required. ,, They point out that the average person forgets that grass is an ordin- ary garden plant requiring food and care, just as much as flowers or vege- tables and seed selection is also just as important. Good lawns are pro- duced from top quality lawn glass mixtures, which contain proper pro- portions of the finer permanent grasses. Seed should be sown liberally aid the ground fertilized. Rolling in the rpringi and watering regulaasly are al- so 'advisable. This treatment will keep grass a rich dark green and growing fast en- ough to crowd out the weeds. Patch- es of the latter in old lawns are us- ually a sore sign of worn-out sail weak from starvation. In phot wea- ther grass shouldnot be cut as short or as often as in the spring and fall. N ery hardy vegetables or flowers or to grass seed. ''hese should be sown just as soon as, grass is fit to work. The second mistake of too deep planting is also a common one. Auth- orities recommend as a general rule only planting to a depth of three times the diameter of the seed. Tide meats that seeds like peas and beans will be covered with about an inch: of soil, but tiny things such as let- tuce and poppies, will be merely pressed in. Spacing is important and yet even the enthusiast does not care to spend much time kneeling and thinning. Labor can be saved by properly 'spac- ing the seed as planted. Corn, beets. peas and similar plants with big seeds can easily be sown at the dis- tances a.dvoca.ted on the packet. With tiny seeds, let:tece or alyssum, 'how-- ever, it is practically imposeible to spade by hand but if the seed is first mixed Kith a little sand and the whole sown carefully, plants will be spread out. and other points, greafily simplifies this matter of layout Generally the best plan is to have the larger flowers toward the rear or centre of tibe bed so that little things like neeturtdume, alyssum, dwarf phlox and similar kinds will not be hidden. Where the bed is to be mixed, it is well also. state the experts, to have late. medium and early flowers evenly balanced to in- sure something always in bloom. But there are other and finer points' to consider. Certain shades blend welt together and often a whole bed. will be seeected with this blending in mind. Of course tor this sort of thing, all the plants must bloom' dur- ing the same period.. Fragra.nee should be taken into account, as there acre many spicy flowers like Evening Scented Stock, Nicotine, Mignonette, Sweet Sultan and Ver- bena, which wihile rather plain as plants, fill the whole garden with., a delightful incense. Garden Pictures Although the informal flower gar- den is much to be preferred for av- erage planting, at the same time this does not mean just throwing in ptavte. Experts advise a little 'pre- iiniinary planning even when only a small bed of annuals is chontnlflPlat-• ed. Tose good.
