MANUFACTURING PULP. Are Microbes In Your Scalp ?
Three processes were used to manu-
facture into wood -pulp the six hun-
dred thousand cords of pulpwood used
in 1910. These are the mechanical or
grinding processes, and the two
chemical processes, which depend up-
on the use of sulphite and soda.
Statistics supplied by the Forestry
Branch of the Department of the In-
terior show that wood used by the
mechanical process formed over three
quarters of the total during 1910, a
greater percentage than at any time
in the past. Unlimited supply of
• clean water is a necessity in the manu-
facture of wood by the mechanical
process so that Quebec is the province
-best adapted for it. Spruce furnished
over four-fifths of the wood used for
mechanical pulp. Balsam contributed
one -sixteenth, with small quantities
. of hemlock and poplar making up the
balance. The sulphite process ac-
counted for one-fifth of the pulpwood
and was used slightly more in Ontario
than in Quebec. Nearly seventy per-
cent-, of the wood used in this process
was spruce, mostly from Ontario.
. Balsam furnished thirty percent,
about three quarters of which was
from Quebec and the same province
used a small quantity of poplar in this
process. Barely two percent of the
total amount of pulpwood was meanie
featured by the soda process although,
Canada 4ias the distinction of having
the oldest soda mill in America. Que-
bec manufactured over three-quarters
of the pulp made by the soda process.
This process was the principal method
used in the reduction of hemlock. Of
the total used by the soda process,
spruce formed seventy percent, hem-
lock seventeen percent. Balsam is
not adapted to the soda, treatment,

It Has Been Proved That Mi-
crobes Cause Baldness.
Professor Unna of Hamburg, Ger-
many, and Dr, Sabourand, the Ieading
French dermatologist, discovered that
a microbe causes baldness. Their
theory has time and again been amply
verified through research experiments
carried on under the observation of
eminent scientists. This microbe
lodges in the Sebum, which is the
natural hair oil, and when permitted
to flourish it destroys the hair fol-
licles and in time the pores entirely
close, and the scalp gradually takes on
a shiny appearance. When this hap-
pens there is no hope of the growth of
hair being revived.
We have a remedy which will, we
honestly believe, remove dandruff, ex-
terminate the microbe, promote good
circulation in the scalp arid around
the hair roots, tighten and revitalize
the hair roots, and overcome baldness,
so Iong as there is any life left in the
hair roots.
We back up this statement with our
own personal guarantee that this re-
medy called. Rexall "°93" Hair Tonic
will be supplied free of all cost to the
user if it fails to do as we state.
It will frequently help to restore
gray and faded hair to its original
color, providing Ioss of color has been
caused by disease ; yet it is in no
sense a dye. RexalI ''93" Hair Tonic
accomplishes these! results by aiding
in making eery hair root, follicle, and
pigment gland et<rong and active, and
by stimulating a. natural flow of color-
ing pigment throughout the hair
cells.
We exact no obligations or promises

if not satisfied tell us and we will
refund the money you paid ue for it.

The Live Stock Situation,
(From the Guelph Herald )
The annual report of the Veterinary
Director -General and Live Stock Corm-
miasloner contains a very important
survey of the live stock situation in.
this country.
It is pointed out that "until very re-
cently it appeared as if Canada would
always have an abundant supply of
live stock of all kinds, not only for her
own use, but for export as well, In
fttet it seemed that the principal
culty with which those of her citizens
engaged, in the live stock business
would have to contend would be that
of finding profitable markets for an
ever increasing and practically limit-
less surplus,"
Within the last few years, however,
there has been a most serious change
in the outlook. The new -comers to.
Western Canada are not devoting any
great attention to animal husbandry,
not from inclination, but from force of
circumstancee. Grain growing pre-
sents a more easy method of meeting
initial expenses, and the experience of
oth$r provinces teaches that there is
not likely to be any general recourse
to mixed farming and the production
of live stock for the market until it
becomes a matter of necessity through
the exhaustion of the soil. Thus the
agricultural community of the West
nem remain for some considerabl
time,consumers rather than producers
of meat.
Moreover, the enormous increase in
the urban population, which has ac-
companied the extraordinary indus-
trial and commercial development of
this western country, has added to the
consuming population, but in spite o*;
this the general production of live
stock instead of keeping in some rela-
tion to the increased demand, as
might reasonably be expected, has not
even maintained a normal rate of
increase.
The consequence of this relative
falling off in the production of meat is.
that the export trade of this country
is dwindling very rapidly, while the
imports of meat are increasing at a
very high rate. In 1909 our imports
of fresh mutton and iamb amounted
to 1,432,206 lbs. ; in 1910 they were
2,094,023 lbs. ; while for the six months
ending September, 1911, the amount
was 1,712 852 lbs. Other fresh meat
imports increased in equal ratio ; from
353,286 lbs. in 1910 to 595,105 lbs. for
the six months ending September
1911.
This is a very serious condition of
affairs ; there does toot seem to be any
very great reason why Canada should
not produce all the meat she needs for
home consumption, and have a large
export trade as well. The Canadian
producer is now competing with Aus-
tralia, New Zealand, Argentina and
the United States, in lines of products
in which she should have virtually the
whole home trade.
If anything practical is to be done it
should be done quickly, for it will now
take some years for the country to
recover the lost ground and the re-
gaining of lost markets is by no means
an easy task. There are hard times
ahead of the farmer who does not
take heed to the wiee counsel of those
who speak from a wide and long ex-
perience.
THE SQUARE DEAL.
The following is from the Canadian
Churchman :—
"People like a strong, determined
fighter in a good cause. A man who
takes the trouble to think, and, hav-
ing thought thoroughly and conscien-
tiously, takes his stand—if need be
with his back to the wall—and fights
for what he believes to be right with
might and main, without fear of con-
sequences and foe, who would tempt
or free him to swerve from his settled
purpose. "It is because the people be-
lieve me to be square that they back
me up," said that forceful fighter,
Theodore Roosevelt, in an election
speech. What Mr. Roosevelt said
of the people of the United States,
Sir James Whitney might well say of
the people of Ontario. The result of
`the recent election gives ample evi-
dence of their unshaken confidence in
the Government of their choice."
True, every word of it. People do
like the square man and the square
deal every time, and therein lies the
great and undoubted strength of Sir
James.

structure at the points where the
spore beds form, but at these points
only the underlying woody cells and
the skin layer of cells remain, and
the latter is finally ruptured.
The rusts from the start begin to
sap the plan't's strength by absorbing
the cell sap. This work early pre-
vents a sufficient flow of food matter
to young wheat grains which are
forming in the head, hence the
maturing process is retarded. In-
deed, the entire upper straw seems
to be unable to mature. One can
readily understand why, when he re-
members that the food manufacturing
areas of the wheat plant is represent-
ed by the green matter of foliage and
the green portions of the upper stem.
If this rust chances to come early
enough lit is able to so thoroughly
break open the stem that a few drying
days completely evaporate the mois-
ture from the straw, and the grain is
sure to shrive. In extreme cases the
filaments of rust actually invade the
attachment of the young grains with
the straw of the head, at times com-
pletely cutting off all regular con-
nection.
PREPARING HORSES FOR FALL
'WOEK.
Much advice le offered every year
about the preparation of the horse for
the spring operations on the farm, but
very little Is said about preparing the
horses for the heavy work which
must be done on the farm in the
autumn. With the work incident to
harvesting and after -harvest tillage,
and the deeper fall plowing, and the
general preparation for winter, there
is always a large amount of very
hard and strenuous work to be done,
and the horses are often" in a very
poor condition to stand this work.
Horses that have kept steadily work-
ing throughout the summer are in..
variably better able to stand the heavy
fall work than are those that have
been running on grass all summer
doing no work, and gorging them-
selves with succulent food not suited
to putting them in working condition.
Perhaps they are fat, but they are
soft and require careful handling
when first put to work. If you take
notice, you will see more thin horses
on the farms just before the frost
stops the plow than at any other time
of the year.
The horse that is on grass, and Is
needed for fall work, should be
brought in and fed a little dry feed
(hay and oats) a couple of tines a
day, This will help harden him up,
and he will not be so soft when first
hitched for work. This should be
done for a fortnight before the horse
is needed for work, and then the first
work should be light, and the horse
be given plenty of time. Horses which
have done nothing but graze all sum-
mer are even softer and more likely
to be injured by heavy work than they
would be in the spring, anter a sum-
mer of comparative idleness, because
the winner feed is not so soft, and
the horses usually do not have an op-
portunity to gorge themselves. The
horse on grass is usually weak, the
energy being used up in the pro-
duction of flesh, which will cause the
animal to sweat easily and to tire very
quickly.
It Pays Though
If you improve the appearance of
your farm by painting your buildings,
erecting a new wire fence along the
road, and making general improve-
ments, thereby adding to the attract-
iveness of the whole neighborhood,
what happens? Why, your taxes go
up, of course! Hardly fair, is It?
Water for Fowl.
One of the most imperative needs
of young chicks is an abundant sup-
ply of fresh clean water. The sup-
ply should be so arranged that the
birds cannot contaminate it with
their feet. Many diseases may be eon-
tractecl from infected feet. Of almost
equal importance to the water supply
is provision for a green run for the
young chicks.
