COOD NEWS FOR RIIEUMATIC PEOPLE Tine most a rheumatic sufferer can hope for In rubbing something on the tender, aching joint is a little relief. No lotion or liniment ever did or ever can do more than this, The rheumatic polson is rooted In the blood. To get that will go right to the root of the trouble In the blood, take Dr. Wil- liams' Pink Pilis. The whole mission of this medicine Is to purify and en- rich the blood, and when they do this WHAT ARE TIIE LO%V WAVE LENGTHS? We see a great deal In the news• papers and radio magazines nowadays about the broadcasting that is going conducted on low wove lengths or short wave lengths, Usually the first thing that puzzles the beginner Is this que.stlon of wave length. It is most unfortunate that we ever started referring to trans• mission ea being done on a certain wave length; we should from the very start have spoken of Its frequency, Ir, the olk days we used' to think that energy was sent through space in the form of waves, The latest view. of science, however, takes the view- point that it Ia not a series of waves but is really a series of pulsations much like the pulsations going through our blood vessels; in fact, the most advanced scientists claim that the energy wo receive does not go even in the form of pulses but In the form of actual infinitesimal particles of matter. Let us suppose that a long lino of men is passing a given point, We aro standing on a street corner as they go by aingle file. Men walking at a good smart pace will cover about 330 feet in one min- ute. Let us assume 'that these men ore spaced about three feet apart, If they are walking at the rate of 330 feet a minute and about throe feet apart, wo can easily, calculate that there. will be .110 men pass us in .each minute, That 110 is. the "frequency" of this pnrede: .The space between the leen Is analogous•• to wave- length.

There- fore wo would say•that this broadcast- ing Is 3,000,000 cycles, And, as long as we aro talking in terms of Prench measuring units, wo use one of their terms which is kilocycle and this merely means 1000 cycles, Therefore, 3,000.000 cycles would be 3000 kilocycles. Divide this number into the speed -300,000,000 meter's -- and the result will be the wave length on which the. broadcasting is being done. You can see from this explanation that the wave length has nothing wl►at• ever to do with the distance over which the ray travels', Tho wave length is purely a, matter of the speed at which the rays travel and the num- of, separate impulses sent out every second.

Although occurring to the extent of about 80 per cent, in the air, nitrogen is considered the most expensive of the elements of plant food. This is due to the fact that with the exception of members of the legume family, plants are unable to utilize this at- mospheric nitrogen, but must depend upon the supply of that element in the soil. Leguminous plants, however,— alfalfa, clovers, vetches, peas, beans, etc.,— are enabled to use the nitrogen of the air through the action of bac- teria which exist in the characteristic nodules found on the root system of well developed plants of this group. These useful bacteria, if present in tho soil, enter the root of the young plant, multiply and develop the swell- ings or nodules, assimilating nitrogen from the air and passing it on to the plant. The plants development is stimulated, the nitrogen supply of the soil is conserved or even increased, and benefit is thus felt by a succeed- ing crop. For each kind of legume a special variety of bacterias is required whose presence in the soil is necessary. If a particular crop has been growing' successfully in a short rotation it may be assumed that nodule bacteria of the right kind are in the soil. Many soils, especially in the newer districts, are 1 deficient in these bacteria, and in most eases where a legume is being grown for the first time, or after a long lapse of years, it will be of advantage to add bacteria, or in other words, to inoculate. Inoculation may be effected by tak- ieg soil from a field where the same PROPAGATING ROSE PLANTS Rose culture is a fascinating sub- ject. Some varieties of roses root readily from cuttings and make very good plants., but as a rule garden rose bushes are stock roses budded on to brier. That is to say, the root is a brier and the upper portion is of the same variety from which the bud was taken. Climbers are perhaps more easily rooted. If ono will fasten to the ground at different points, a young rose vine, it is likely to take root at each of the spots where it is in con- tact with the soil. The branch, after having become well rooted et the dif- ferent points, can be severed between the rooted portions, ecah making a new plant. These of course will all be of the variety of the parent climber. Roses are budded on to briers or other wild stock because these are more vigorous, that is to say, they withstand adverse climatic conditions better than some of the finer varieties of roses, particularly the hybrid teas. Budding is done usually in the month of August. A T-shaped cut is made by the operator in the main stem of a growing brier. The cut is made as close to the root as possible, usually just above the surface of the soil. The bud, which has previously been taken from a rose branch, is so trimmed as to fit in beneath the bark where the T cut was made. The bark is then wrapped tightly over the bud with raffia. The budding is best done on the south side of the brier so as to get full benefit of the sunlight. The bud, if all goes well, makes a perfect union with the brier, although no growth is shown that season, The following spring the bud shoots out and grows rapidly, After a few weeks of growth, when the bud is seen to be making progress, the brier branches are cut away. This throws all of the sap of the briar root into the new rose plant. It is well when cutting off the brier shoots, to cover the wound with paint. This keeps out moisture and saves the wood from weather injury. The operation of budding calls for skill and experience. The buds are taken from cuttings of the present year's growth, One cutting will yield three or even four buds. The buds are found in the exits of theleaves, that is to say, everywhere a leaf is growing or one has fallen off, there exists a bud. Each bud is sliced off, to be inserted in the cut in the brier' stem, Successful budders get ninety' per cent of the buds to take, When making standard tree roses the budding is done not at the foot of the, brier, but from three to:four feet up the stem of the brier.: Afv-:a rule two .or even three bud ts ae,Onserted on ono briar stem, spaced ,an inch or two apart and on .different sides. Roses are shipped out from the nurs- ery as commercial bushes in their see- ' ond year. It is not uncommon for the brier to throw up a branch from below the bud. If this is allowed to grow it Al soon be receiving all the nourishment and the rose will' flue-- cumb. For this reason eipetiended gar4ntra watch- for the brier shoots and cLtheii�ff a& soon as they ap. crop has grown successfully and in- corporating it with the new land at the rate of 200 lbs, or more per acre. This practice Is often expensive and is always subject to the danger of introducing weeds, insects and plant diseases. Another method, much simpler to. apply, is that of adding a pure cul• turo of the nodule bacteria directly to the legume seed before sowing. This method has been tried for a number of years, and in cases where a scarc- ity of bacteria of the proper sort is suspected will give, in a large number of cases, beneficial results. Tho Dominion Experimental Farms wish to encourage the use of nitro - cultures among the farmers of Can- ada, and the Division of Bacteriology will supply free to any fernier who applies directly, sufficient nitro - culture to inocu'.ate 00 lbs. of seed for any legume he wishes to try out. In making application it is necessary to state the kind of seed used and give, if possible, the approximate date of seeding in order that cultures may be fresh. Furthermore, cultures are sent out only with the understanding that the applicant agrees to report the re- sult of his inoculation trial, whether it be successful or not. Many phases of the question of inoculation are not understood, and it is only by accumu- lating information as to the results of such trials by farmers themselves that many problems not yet solved will be cleared up. Application for culture should be made to the Division of Bacteriology, Central Experimental Farm, Ottawa. Cultures are not sold, and the quan- tity supplied to any individual is lim- ited to the amount specified above. —A. G. Lochhead, Dominion Agricul- tural Bacteriologist. • POULTRY. mini is of unquestionable value in poultry feeding. When fed for its nutritive value primarily the dry products, such as dried buttermilk or dry skimmilk, probably are the most economical and efficient. There are, however, other proper- ties—palatability, and the tonic factor which liquid sour milk possesses. When fed for this purpose, sour skim milk or sour buttermilk as either DAIRY. My exp anise in dairying teaches me that' is a big paying investment to give t io grow lug heifers1;00d Care, As a rule, when the young heifers in the fall are rather low in flesh on ac- coun1 of the scant pasture that always precedes the coming 011 of winter. In growing young stock to replenish tho dairy herd the aim should be to keep them growing constantly, The setback in growth during early devel- opnamt is not only costly, but difficult to regain, and ultimately affects the usefulness of the animal, Often stunt- ing is permaeent, and regardless of good feeding the latter cannot be alto- gether overcome. I find it a good plan to keep my young heifers separate from the rest of the lisrd during the winter. Young stock of any kind is timid and fearful and especially when running with the older stock. Growing heifers should have plenty of yardage space. They should be stabled at night and fed in such a way that each animal receives ite full share of tho feed. As a rule, roughage is not suffi- cient to meet the full requirements of growing heifers. I believe, however, that the grain ration can be material- ly reduced by feeding plenty of such roughages as corn, silage, clover, or alfalfa hay. -1,. C, R. SHEEP. Ewes should produce a large uni- form flow of rich milk. To prepare ewes to do their best work during the nursing period, they should be put in good condition before the lambs arrive. Ewes cannot be expected to do their work satisfactorily and return the greatest profit if allowed to become run down in flesh and physical strength. Growing the lamb crop be- fore it arrives places a heavy claim upon the health and vitality of the ewes. If the ewes lack in condition the lambs are sure to suffer. To de- velop the milk flow in ewes, the feed- ing must be liberal. It has been my observation in hand- ling breeding ewes that milk produc- tion depends as much upon proper feeding before the lambs arrive as after. The milk producing system must be developed along with the growth of the unborn lamb crop. To achieve the desired end it is important to feed pregnant ewes a nutritious and appetizing ration of roughtages and grain. Sunshine Encourages Rickets. Scientists are now pointing out the value of plenty of sunlight in the growing of strong, vigorous, healthy bodies. Tropical men, accustomed to much sunlight, have strong bones and comes from the dairy or the churn i.good teeth. Remove these men to a semi-so:id buttermilk, diluted and centage of sunlight is reduced by temperate climates where the per - ideal. In the absence of this producti fed as a beverage or slightly diluted and mixed with the moist mash, their changed habits of living, and highly desirable. is, they rapidly develop rickets and poor le content acts as a teeth, internal disinfectant, cleansing the di- gestive tract, and the ration with which it is fed will be more quickly consumed and more efficiently di- gested. Milk can be fed to the poultry flock without any material increase in cost, because where •it is fed for protein content meat scrap can be reduced. With the discovery of .vitamins, cod liver has come into considerable prm oinence because it is rich in vita- snin D. A deficiency in this vitamin brings aboutleg weakness in young chicks, This is especially prominent in early hatched chicks which cannot get the natural green feed; also when they do not get the benefits of direct sun- light. Wo can prevent this condition by supplying early hatched chicks with cod liver oil. From 2 to 3 per cent, of it added to the ration of brooder chicks will guard against leg weak- ness. Cod liver oils differ greatly in qual- ity, however, and their keeping qual- ity is dependent upon how they are, held. Feed mixed with the oil should, be consumed immediately, The practice is to mix the oil with the dry mash, working by hand the' quantity to be given into a small quantity of ma.sh, and then later mix- ing this thoroughly with the entire mixture. The extent to which one uses the things mentioned will depend largely upon the cost balanced against the benefits which one will receive, The Epsom salts barrel has become 1 a regular part of the feed -room equip- ment. Its use is made necessary by the fact that during the winter season, when birds are confined, they cannot secure the abundance of green feed which is highly laxative and keeps them in condition, During this period they are fed quantities of concentrated protein feeds. Laying flocks are very apt to become constipated, and a condition of auto -intoxication develop. This does not kill the birds, but it slows up production and lowers the resist- ance of the entire flock to disease. So the feeding regularly every two weeks of a moist mash containing ono pound ofEpsom salts to each 100 birds is very desirable for the average poul- tryman.

MURDERING TREES FOR THE BUZZ -SAW BY ARTHUR HER BERT RICHARDSON. Winter and sleighing time brings with it the seasonable task of wood cutting and thinning in the farm woodlot. The local proprietor of the buzz -saw makes his annual round and assists in harvesting fuel for next winter, e'er the snow of this is fully settled on the ground. The buzz -saw is an innovation of recent times which assists magnifi- cently in the cuttingof fuel. A few years ago in our rural communities, oto such convenience was dreamed of. Any small stuff which was cut and considered worthwhile for fuel was dragged up to the house and reserved for spare moments with the bucksaw in the back shed or door yard. Tho buzz -saw is a great convenience in keeping down the soaring price of firewood, and yet by the increasing smallness of the stuff fed to it, it may become, in the end, more of a menace than a help. • When we used to cut firewood on the back concession, only large trees were considered worthwhile, and chiefly those of beech and maple, I still recall those frosty. days with the thermometer hovering below zero, the beauty and stillness of the frozen forest on all sides, and the exhiliarat- ing exercise of splitting a chunk from a fifteen -inch maple. The axe re- bounded at each stroke as if striking a piece of rubber. Saplings and trees up to six inches were passed by as unmerchantable. To -day, these and trees the size of a man"s wrist are fed regularly to the omnivorous buzz - saw. t, This is where the murder comes In. It is expected that trees of n cer- tain size will he cut, for after all,! this is a part of the meaning of foiH estry. And it will he necessary, in the judicious handling of the wood - lot to take out small. trees for certaiii! reasons, but the practice of stripping a young woodlot clean of everything; that can be used—mowing it down! like a field of corn—is nothing but murder! A FOREHANDED FARMER. visited a farmer's home one day, in whose yard was a large .pile of poles and limb material ' drawn up ready for the :saw: I examined its contents :carefully and,observed that it contained pin cherry, 'ironwood, white - birch and...some twisted .beech and hard maple. I said to the owner, "I see you aro considering the future 1., 14— Itiff It WAVI rnh,wQ frt4311 your woodlot." "Yes," he said, "1 want it to last. Some men cut every- thing; I simply take out the inferior species, those that I know will be killed out and others that aro growing too thick," This, of course, was the common- sense way of handling the farm wood - lot. The man required no book ad- vice on conserving his woods. Ile was doing the most natural thing—the thing that was obvious, And after all, woodlot forestry is simply assist- ing nature in what she is trying ;to do for herself. On another occasion I 'visited a farmer's bush which, in this ease, was almost pure young maple. How differently he had operated. Every- thing was cut clean. What couldn't bo used for fuel was cleared away apparently as a matter of principle. Young, sturdy maples, which were growing faster than at any other time in their life had been murdered and stacked ready for the buzz -saw. • USE YOUR THINNINGS. Let me repeat again that, in east- ern Canada, the problem of fuel wood —and when we speak of fuel we mean hardwood such as, beech, birch, maple and a few inferior species— is not a problem of tree planting, but one of protection and judicious thin- ning and improving. It Is true that hardwoods will be planted to supple- ment existing woodlots and to create new ones, but...this is secondary, the iniportant think is toAceep intact a-nd to manage with a view to perpetuity, the woodlots that aro present to -day. It goes without saying that fire and cattle will be kept out of the wood - lot. Then if the following few simple rules aro observed, fuel and -occasion- ally larger stuff may be taken with assurance that the bush will remain. Take all trees that have been thrown by the wind and those that are dying from diseatie or other cause. trunkedwith remove old, short umbrella-liko branches that interfere with younger growth. Cut all mis- ithapen trees, those that are twisted 'and -crooked or badly crotched.

Home Education "The Child's First School Is the Family."—Froebel. Should We Contradict Each 0 ther?—By Lydia Lion Roberts A long time ago there was a little girl who was bright, eager and full of life. She was impulsive, interested in everything she saw and brimming over with ideas. But so many times her eyes clouded, her interest dulled, because when she tried to show older people that she saw things differently, or meant something that they did not understand, they said to her sharply, "Don't you contradict me. I am older than you and you should not contra- dict your elders," The little girl had not meant to con tradict, she had been trying to get out some of the many thoughts which tumbled over each other, and which grown folks seemed so slow to under- stand. Yet when these people told her things—and she was always so ea to have them talk with her—if she ventured her own ideas, they often flatly disagreed with her. "But you contradict me, Mama," she saki with a puzzled appeal in her eyes one day. "That is different," said the mother. "1 am older than you," The little girl learned to keep silent even when she knew people were hear- ing things wrong, and she learned never to speak of it when older people quite flatly contradicted her, but she wondered and wondered. Why was contradicting wrong when you were young, and right when you THE CHILDREN'S HOUR ABOUT 13IG WORDS. Wallie Wattle's father uses big words; and Wallie, who likes their sound, tries to remember them, and usually Succeeds. Wallie reaNy doesn't do this to show off. First, as we said, he likes the sound of these words; and then there's another reason. Alec Esterville, whom the boys call Smart Alec, thinks he knows more ihan any- one else because someone gave him a big dictionary for his birthday. Every time Alec starts to show off by using a big word Wallie annoys him by using a' bigger one that he has heard his father use. The other day. Ake read in a newspaper that wheat had been in use far . ages and ages. At once he got'out his diction- ary . and. looked for a fancy way of saying this. Well, ho found one, and ithe next day he approached a group i of boys in front of the school and said: "Do you kids know that wheat 'is I quite an antiquated product; in fact, very antediluvian?" I Then, though no one asked him for an explanation—for the boys were more interested in talking about the school baseball team—Alec started to explain: • "Antediluvian mean ti before the floed—the one that Noah figured in." Allen Withers, who likes to annoy Alec, yelled: "Huh!' Listen% to, thatl— He ..says -wheat carne before thS-flotid,' It Must have wine; after it,- 'eayse wouldn't the flood 'have wathedit away?" With this everyone laughed at het Alec, wnrnIatttat1 were older? It didn't make sense in the little girl's mind, it didn't seem right, but anyway there was no use asking any more about it bccause ono only got into trouble. However, she made a big resolution. She resolved that when she grew up and married and had children, she would never, never contradict them. She would not contradict them even though it were perfectly all right for her to do so. The years passed and the little girl married and had rosy, sturdy children. When they began to grow to °aver, questioning, experimenting age, the grown up little girl never once forgot her early resolution. If she dif- fered in opinion with her little chil- dren she would say, "Perhaps you aro right, but I thought it was this way," or, "Now aro you sure that is so? Be- cause I Juld a different idea about it," or, sweetly and politely, "Excuse me; dear, but I think you are wrong," It was 110 wonder that the children were so obedient and happy in that house that people commented upon it. Sometimes the children would breathlessly break into a conversation,. then the mother would say gently, "I know you don't mean to be rude, but wouldn't it bo more polite and pleas-' ant if you didn't answer quite so quickly? It sounded almost as if you contradicted mo, but of course you and I know that isn't right as wo don't do it to each other." "Wheat is antediluvian! It is, I say! I can prove it!" "It is, Alec," chimed in W#Ilie Wat- tle, who had been silent all this time., "You might also say that neolithic"—, he chuckled as he pronounced the, word—"man also grew wheat. I see you're not used to the word. The neo - Mille age was thousands and thou -1 sands of years ago when man used implements of polished stone. Some scientists thing paleolithic man grew' wheat too, The pnleolithic age was just before the neolithic.

The Automobile TIRE PROGRES S DURING 1924. Advances in automobile tiro con- truction tend to make motoring less tiresome, Probably one of the most` important achievements in automobile design in the last year has been mode, in the realm of shoeing the automo-' bile's feet, For a number of years people have lord to be content with riding upon tires that, in order to insure reason- able length of life, needed to be in- flated to a very high pressure, It Was a case of either inflating to a point where the tire did not perform the desirable function of absorbing shock it order to get reasonable wear or of procuring increased comfort by what the manufacturers considered under - inflating the tire, This later method resulted in rapid destruction of thol tires. Keen under conditions of high I inflation manufacturers, a few years' ago, guaranteed their tires for 3,500 miles of service, With the tires of to -day it is not unusual to secure 20,- 000 miles of service from a set of ti res. The balloon tire, which is the latest development in this field, adds con- siderably to the comfort of riding, This tire may be operated under very low pressure; first, because it has a very large area of contact with the road. For example, if a tire has 800 pounds of car to support and the tiro has fifteen square inches of con- tact with the road, each square inch would need to support 800 divided by fifteen, or fifty-three and a half pounds, If the tire is made larger so that say thirty square inches of contact is made with tho road, each square inch would have to support only half as many pounds or twenty- six and two-thirds. This makes it possible to reduce the air pressure in the tiro one-half, QUESTION OP FLEXIBILITY. In the second Once the side walls of the tire are made in a manner which permits of much greater flex bility. In the older type of tiros th manufacturers stressed the point tha if the tiros were not sufficiently in fluted the side walls would brea down, and this would naturally occu when tho tiro was composed 'of heavy stiff fabric. For example, i you take a piece of heavy stiff card- board and bond It sharply back and forth it will very quickly crack, while a piece of comparatively thin paper would stand any amount of such handling without breaking. By using tho thin sido wall in the balloon tire tho tire may be used with a very low pressure, which permits of great flexibility of action without harming the tire, A tiro that has sufficient flexibilit to keep It in good contact with th ground rather than bu►nping over ob structions greatly lessons the liability to skid. ALL TASTES ARE SUITED. While the balloon tire represents the extreme in the matter of low in- flation and provides `the greatest pos- sible comfort in motoring a mean be- tween this and the old type is found in the larger sized regular cord'tire that gives greater contact with the road than the previous 817,e3 and thus may bo operated at a considerably lower pressure, but not as low as th full balloon type. This tire is being used a great deal in extensive tour Ing. Of course when it comes to the con sideration of the many cars used for business purposes it is found that many of these are equipped with the oversized cords instead of the largest balloon designs, For all kinds of mo- tor vehicles the manufacturers are constantly studying to improve tho quality of tires. Their success in re- cent years has been notable and repre- sents a decided contribution toward increased riding comfort which owners of cars enjoy. KING GEORGE BEARS HEAVY BURDEN NEWS OF ILL HEALTH ' STARTLES COUNTRY. Dependence of National Ad- ministration on Hereditary Chief Executive Suddenly Felt by Public. With King George's departure ,With the realm on a Mediter- ranean yachting cruise, which it Is 'hoped will restore his health after a severe attack of bronchitis, the Brit- . ish people havo realized, almost for the first time, how dependent then whole administration of the countryI is on Britain's hereditary chief ' exe-I t cutive. ( l followed the example of his grand- mother and father, Queen Victoria and King Edward, both of whom regu- larly visited the south of France or the German resorts during the winter. Since his accession to the throne al- most fifteen years ago King George's absences from the country have been few and far between, Early in his reign ho visited India, but since then, aside from his visits to France during the war and his state visit to Rome a couple of years ago, he has never been abroad. The brief vacations which he allows himself from the business of state have been spent shooting in Scotland or on short.coastwise Cruises in his yacht. During these trips, of course, he is able to transact the business of state. Tho present generation of English people, therefore, are only now being educated in the constitutional lore that necessarily comes to the front when the King is scheduled to go traveling, With the improvement•of coinmunica- ions the formality with which royal absences used to be invested has argely disappeared; but at the same time the King's absence from the country gives a jolt to the normal ad- ministration which steps must be taken to meet. That elusive but important body known as the Privy Council in partic- ular comes into the limelight on such occasions, The executive government of this country, although exercised in practice by a committee of ministers known as the Cabinet, whose existence Is dependent upon the support of a ma- jority in the House of Commons, is vested nominally In "the King in Council," Normally tho British people are in- clined to take their monarchy more or less for granted, as they do most other permanent factors of their lives. It is only when that factor is put out of gear that the full extent of the load resting on the shoulders of the King is appreciated, and crowds waited all day long outside Bucking- ham Palace for news of his progress toward recovery. This was illustrative of the nation's concern over his temporary break -1 down under the heavy burdens of state. Tho bulletin, signed by three' royal doctors, which first disclosed the gravity, of King George's Kiness was coincident with the recommendation that ho spend his convalescent period on his yacht Victoria and Albert as t anon, as ho is able to travel, This t brought his subjects sharp against c tho discovery that probably the hard- est worked man in his country scarce- i ly ever takes a vacation. bIENACE SEEN IN CLIMATE, As n London newspaper pointed out t in commenting on the Ring's trip, "there comes a time in a man's lifo when England's winter climate ceases) to be a bad joke and becomes a definite ►t menace to health."

The reason for that is that the Cabinet theoretically is a committee within the Privy Council, upon which the title "Cabinet" falls whe►i it sits under the King's presidency, The KIng personally is 'the nucleus of the whole -administration and he personally summons the Privy Coun- cil. When he goes abroad the power of summoning the council must be delegated and, under one form or other, tho kingship must be so dele- gated on this occasion. When King George went to India a formal Coun- cil of State was appointed to exercise certain functions of the crown.

'1t is said that medical history records 01113 -about fifty cases of child - 'ren iiai,'Ing teeth at birth, but from the prominence which this superstition en- joys in folklore we may be certain 1 that many cases have escaped tau chroniclers' notice.

Natural Resources Bulletin. Tho Natural Resources Intelligence Service of the Dept. of the Interior at Ottawa says: Until one sees the actual figures of production it is hard to credit the amount of material being taken out of the forests of Canada. The variety of product and the quantities are enor- mous, A statement just issued by the Dominion Bureau of Statistics of the lumber industry in Canada for 1923 contains some figures that will be a revelation to many, even of those who are mere :or less familiar with the. development of this great Can- adian natural resource. 'Of lumber alone nearly three and throe -quarter thousand million board feet was cut by the sawmills, the value ,of which was $108,295,568. . Of shingles and lath there were 3, 872,385,000 pieces cut, 2,718,650,000 shingles and 1,153,735,000 lath, There were 4,336,932 railway ties sawn In the mills. This does not in- clude the millions that are chopped by tie contractors in the woods, Box shooks numbered 3,393,218; pickets, 3,124,900; telegraph and telephone poles, 138,124, and slabs and edgings, 339,761 cords. Spruce kill holds the lend in quam tity cut, • although Douglas fir is a close' second, and white pine third. There aro 26 individual species of wood used for lumber, 18 species used for lath and 6 for shingles, Spruce is he principal wood used for lath, al- though such hardwoods as maple, beech, ash, birch and elm were sawn for lath, • Cedar Almost held a monopoly of the hingle cut, but spruce, white, pine, hemlock, balsam, fir and.even poplar were •Used for small quantities. More ban one-half of the shingles were etit n 'British Columbia, although 26,- 02,000 were cut in Ontario, 38,4Q1,000 in Quebec and 239,- 60,000 in Now Brunswick, The Prairie provinces cut but few shingles. Alberta. and Saskatchewan each pro-. g only 330,000, front spruce and nek pine. It .would be difficult to estimate the lumber of trees required to provido his sawmill output, but even large as it ts, authorities advise that if fire can bo kept out of the forests natural Increment will replace the commercial cutting, It seems a small price to pay for such an important result, yet he toll being taken by forest fires is qual if not in excess of that used y industry.
