FIELD CROPS IN CANADA.
•
A bulletin on the field crops of Cana-
da issued Sept. 14 gives their average
Condition by provinces at the end of
{August, together with estimates of the
;production of spring wheat, oats and
.barley at that time. The per cent.
;condition of wheat is given as 86.80, of
floats 84.44 and of barley 84.73. which is
about five to seven per cent. higher
than last year and nearly the same as
two years ago. The other crops range
in condition from 80 to 86 per cent. and
are generally somewhat lower than in
1909 and 1910. The rains of August
hindered the ripening of grain and
some injury was caused by hail storms,
low temperature and rust. Towards
the end of the month frost prevailed in
many sections of the Northwestprov-
inces, the full extent of which could
not be determined at the date of the
reports, but in the ease of wheat, oats
and barley production was lowered by
probably 12 per Fent., which has •been
followed in the table. In the older
provinces the grains ripened earlier
and little damage was sustained ex-
cepting from drouth in some localities,
and the reported condition was 75 or
over.
The average yield of spring wheat
is estimated at 19.14 bushels per acre
for the Dominion, which is seven bush-
els more than last year, and the total
yield at 186,928,000 bushels. The fall
wheat was reported last month at 17,-
703,000 bushels, being grown almost
wholly in Ontario and Alberta. The
total wheat yield of the country is
therefore estimated to be 204,634,000
bushels or 81,849,000 bushels more than
last year at the same date. The aver-
age per acre is 19.50 bushels, or 6.30
bushels per acre more than last year.
For the Dominion the yield of oats is
given as 368,153,000 bushels, which is
84,906,000 bushels more than last year's
estimate at the same date, and the
average at 85.81 bushels per acre, be-
ing more than last year by 7.10 bush-
els. The average for barley is also
higher than last year by 7.31 bushels,
and the total yield is estimated at 51,-
559,000 bushels as against 39,388,000
bushels for last year.
The estimated yield of spring wheat
for Manitoba, Saskatchewan and Al-
berta this year is 181,535,000 bushels,
of fall wheat 3,193,000 bushels, of oats.
204,758,0)0 bushels and of barley 80,-
205,000 bushels, as compared with 9$,

A CONSERVATION REPORT.
One of the most thoroughly inform-
ing of Ottawa reports is that of the
Commission of Conservation, a bulky
volume, well -bound, well -illustrated,
and, what is more to the point, well -
compiled. It is gotten up with a thor-
oughness which may in part be attri-
buted to the genuis for organization
which the Hon. Clifford Sifton pos-
sesses to a high degree. This year's
book deals with lands, fisheries, game,
and minerals; over one-half of it is
given over to an exhaustive review of
the country's mineral production, re-
sources and opportunities. There is
an agricultural survey for,1910, an ad-
mirable resume of the North Atlantic
fisheries dispute and an, abundance of
maps, statistical and otherwise.
No one can read the report without.
being impressed with the bigness of
the Dominion, and its extraordinary
progress during recent years. The
area under crop has increased from less,
than twenty million acres in 1901 to
nearly thirty-three /million in 1910, a
gain of sixty-five percent. Most Can-
adians will be surprised to learn that
there are 37,000 square miles of peat
in the country, mostly in Ontario and
the North-West, It averages from five
to ten feet in depth, and is calculated
to be the equivalent of 16,000,000,000
tons of coal, or fifteen times the world's
annual production. Nor is Canada's
coal area a small one The report esti-
mates it at nearly thirty thousand
square miles, capable of producing the
enormous total 172,000,000,000 tons.
In coal and other mines, the number of
accidents in the Dominion is lament-
ably large, as illustrated in one of the
many ~statistical maps included in the
report. While accidents in British and
Continental mines show a tendency to
decrease in number, no such gratifying
statement can be made regarding Can-
ada and the United States.
The report is full of just such useful
information as has been outlined in
these few examples. It is a reference
book of real excellence, and in demon-
strating the greatness of Canadian re-
sources it emphasizes the neeessity of
conserving them, and outlink methods
whereby unnecessary waste .may be
overcome,
FLEAS AS PETS.
Prof, R. A. Noires, of Washington,
D. C., has a company of performing
fleas which are wonderful and interest-
ing. The species is Pulex irritans,
says Youth's Companion, an insect
which is somewhat poisonous to the
system of man, but owing to the fact
that Professor Nokes has incubated the
fleas himself, they are not poisonous to
him.
To train a flea is no easy .natter.
The first thing to be done is to cure
hire from jumping; for considering' means guests.

bird is taught. As a rule, one feat is
about the limit of a flea's .accomplish-
ment. He who walks a tight rope will
not pull a chariot. This company of
fleas turns a windmill by means of a
treadwheel, and operates a merry-go-
round filled with flea passengers. They
juggle balls and do a neat act in which
they manage tiny Cannon, known as
the flea artillery. As dancers they are
quite at ease, and even wear appro-
priate gowns for this exhibition. Per-
haps the most comical feat is that of
the tight -rope walker,' who also per-
forans a somersault in the middle of
the thread.
It is marvellous to note the strength
these fleas exhibit. They can pull arti-
cles thousands of times their own
weight when moved on wheels.
The harnessing of a flea is tedious,
yet it can be accomplished by those
who have learned the art of securing
a gold wire one thousandth of an inch
in diameter -round the neck of the in-
sect and yet keep him alive when it is
all over.
Like any other creature, the flea
will baulk and become unruly at times,
for which punishment is necessary.
The culprit is -then suspended from a
hook on a thin geld chain until sub-
dued.
Of course all this teaching must be
done through a microscope, which adds
to its tediousness. For this purpose
Professor Nokes has constructed a spe-
cial instrument, which brings the in-
sect into a field of vision eighteen
inches in diameter and exceptionally
clear.
The trainer is very careful of his
actors, and as soon as they show the
slightest sign of drooping or fatigue,
they are put in the hospital at a proper
temperature for recuperation.
Professor Nokes is very fond of his
pets, and has given frequent exhibi-
tions' of their wonderful feats. He
calls them all by names, and they seem
to know their particular designation.
The life of this species is about seven
years, and some of these pets have
been performing for nearly that length
of time. In order to keep in practice,
the fleas must have a daily rehearsal.
When not thus engaged, these pets are
carefully confined in cases or in the
incubator.

Death After a Scratch.
Morris Quatzam, an eleven -year-old
Windsor boy, fell off his bicycle and
scratched his wrist. He thought noth-
ing of the injury, but blood poison set
in and he is dead.
Such incidents as these -by no means
infrequent -ought to make people rea-
lize the danger that may lie even in
the smallest flesh wound. -e
Take a simple .illustration. When a
knife, a rusty needle, . a splinter of
dirty wood, a barbed wire fence, or a
thorn, scratches the hand, the latter is
inoculated with germs, of which the
air about us is full.
The way to avoid serious results is to
cleanse the wound and apply Zam-Buk.
Zam-Buk is a powerful, yet painless
germ -killer, and when applied to the
broken skin is absorbed into the tissue,
instantly destroying the germs that
spread disease and stopping the pain"
and smarting. That is why Zam-Buk
is so popular with children.
The flesh thus soothed and purified,
the wound is made perfectly healthy,
and all poison and cause of festering
removed. Having done this, Zam-Buk
then proceeds to heal the wound or
sore, and new healthy tissue is built up
in a quick, painless and perfect man-
ner.
Zam-Buk must not be confused with
ordinary' ointments. Zam-Buk is a
unique preparation, possessing antisep-
tic, soothing and healing qualities that
are not to be found together in any
other preparation. It is .not only a
unique healing balm, but it is also a
skin food. For all akin diseases and
injuries -cuts, bruises burns, eczema,
chafing, ulcers, ringworm, etc., it is
without equal. It is also used widely.
for piles,•for which it may be regarded
as a specific. All druggists and stores
sell at 50 cents a box, or post free from

NO CHINESE TYPEWRITERS.
Typewriters are now made for use in
nearly a hundred different languages,
and they are sold all over the world;
but there is still one great nation which,
for a very simple reason, has no type-,
writers that write in tongue. That
nation is China.
The English alphabet has twenty-six
letters, the Russian thirty-six. The
type -writer produced for the Russian
market is the largest made; but no
typewriter Gould be made that would
begin to be big enough for the Chinese
language, which has 'no alphabet but
is represented by sign characters, of
which there are about fifty thousand.
Of the great number of words found in
the English language only a small :pro-
portion are used for the ordinary pur-
poses of speech, and the same is true
of the characters used in the Chinese
language; but the number of Chinese
characters commonly employed le still
fel, greater than Could be put en any

The curse of the farmer In horses
and cattle 'is the grade sire and the
lack on our part of good sound
ideas of how to breed good stock.
When a farmer selects a grade sire
it shows at once that he does not
understand the forces he is dealing
with. Farmers never ought to use
anything but pure bred: sires; then
they will have enough poor colts.
To help the blood of the sire they.
should grade up their snares as
high' se possible by breeding each
generation Io pure bred' sire3.
Where this has been done In any
section they raise an increasing per-
centage of first class colts. The

eure to cause Its full share of trouble.
A good collar tont fits well is a good
investment. The use of many cheap,
poorly made cloth collars has, nothing
to commend itself. Many of our best
horsemen will have nothing but a
leather, collar on their draft horses. Be
sure that the collars are clean .each
morning When the horses go to the
field, and ,after they have worked a
few hours It is a good plan to lift them
up a little and cleau then* again. Bath-
ing the shoulders at night 14 anexcel-
lent practice. Some teamsters 1 know
always remove the harpess during the
noon hour in order to remove the
strain on the shoulders. Others un-
fasten the battles and thrt sv the traces
over the horses' backs. This may all
seem needless, but sore shoulders are
very uncommon with these men. Pre-
vention Is far more easy than the
treatment, and this is another matter.
Currying is an important factor In
keeping any horse In condition. I have
heard horsemen say a well groomed
horse can be kept on one-half the feed
required to keep one that is not well
cared for in this respect. Clipping in
the spring helps to make this .easier,
as it prevents the hair from forming in
large bunches that are held together
by the excess perspiration. 1 know a
teaming contractor who would dis-
charge his men if he should get his
baht) dirty by rubbing it over the backs
of the teams. Currying at night Is as
essential as currying in the morning.
Too much cannot be \said about groom -
ng. It i4 not a simple process of brush-
ing off the animal. You cannot do It
in three" minutes. Many well kept
animals are thoroughly curried, then
brushed with a long flbered brush, cur,
ried again and brushed with short,
stiff bristles that are about as un-
yielding as a board. Then they are
again curried and run over with a
cloth that is sometimes oiled, though
the oil will sooner or later hurt the
gloss of the hair. The last process is
what many term a cleaning. Contrast
that with an ordinary currying.
