get:dime Recent reports coneerning the
sowing of winter cereals in Europe are
generally favorable. A table giving tho
world'e corn production in 1000, 1010
and 1911 shows the 1011 ceop to be 300;
0000000 bushels less than 1010. This is
explained by the falling eff of the crop
in the 'United States where three,fourths
• tlie world's corn is produced.
Coteerning co-operation tt is pointed
out that in Germany there were at the
begtnning of the present year 2,205 co.
operetive purchase Aocietice and le,010
rural co-operative credit societies. To
effeet the amost ceonomy and uniform- .
ity of meth -0, central purchaee socie-y
tice have been organized, of which there
are twenty in etermanv, These are con-
etantly in tented wiih each other and
always act in common accord le their
Inenness relations with sapplY sennli-
eatee. The total value of goods pule
ehased by these societies in 1008 wes
$243106,131, The co-operative purchase
societies have at their disposal large
ennes of money as workieg cepital.
Working expenses are loW, amounting
in 1008 to 2.7 per cent, of the amount
of goods purchased. It is not the mission
of these societies to realize large net
profits, their essential day being to
oupply their members with goed. mete
ehandise at small cost. Bonuses are re-
turned to members in proportion to
their individual purchases.
In Gerinany, it is pointed out, there
were in operation in 1910 3,300 steam
plows. It is admitted in that country
that a steam plow cannot be owned
and operated profitably when less than
2,600 acres are to be plowed. For those
plowing land of less extent, the use of
a steam aSlow is only profitable by hir-
ing or else through the medium pf a co.
operative eociety. Stich societies are, as
a rule, based on the prineipal of u.nlimit-
ed liability need the shares of members
are from $120 to $600. It Is established
-that for a eertain number of acres to be
ploughed a share must be bought, and it
is atipulated that the members' liability
should be for ten times the amotmt of
their slieres in order that the society
may obtain the necessary credit.
Agrieultural organization is spreading
rapidly in Great Britain, Among other
organization for the advancement of ag-
riculture' there is held, in the county of
Essex, a series of cock -crowing competi-
tions. It is believed that such m.atches
will do much good to the cause of bet-
ter poultry, as it has been noticed again
and. again that the young cockerels
whieh crow first are usually the strong-
est and by usieig the stron.g birds the
stamina of poultry can be augmented in
a few seasons,
An article dealing with orga,nizations
in the United States gives the member-
ship of ',le Varmers' Educational and
Co -Operative Union, which was formed
in texae some eight years ago, as 0,00,-
000, One of the division of this organi-
zation, known. as the Pacific Northwest

cided to send a represeetative to Eng-
land to investigate the wheat situation
evith a view of selling direct to the con-
sumer. He will endeavor to establish
a market not only for grain; but for
fruit and whatever other farm products
the Farmers' Union members may pro.
duce.
While Denmark has occupied the fore-
most position in the world in regard
to agricultural co-operation, elle hats no
'lave governing companies limited by
glens nor any special law on so -opera-

I...appointed by the 'Meister of Customs

Canadians interested in securing better
laws relating to co-operation,. the text
of the Danish bill is given in full.
Under the head of insurance, it is
stated that the condition of cattle in-
tended for slaughter in Germariy is

CHANGE OF EYE COLOR.
The possibility of a man's eyes chang-
ing color as the result of mental shock
or physical ill treatment was the subject
of an interesting discussion yesterday
by a number of surgeons in the eye ward
of one of the gene London hospitals.
One of the surgeons stated: "it is
common knowledge that great physical
hardships may suddenly turn the hair
white. The loss of color here follows
on certain chemical changes, due to dis.
turbances of nutrition taking place in
the tiny particles of' coloring matter,
which give the hair its color.
"All infants ,at birth have blue eyes.
In some babies inimediately after bitth
pegment granules begin to develop in tne
iris. Thus they- become brown or black
eyed. In others, however, no such pig-
ment formation takes niece and the
eyes remain blue or gray throughout
life.
"If this at present blue-eyed ex-eon-
viet is really the miesing brown -eyed
banker a reasonsibie explanation of the
discrepancy in the eye eolorings would
be that under the stress of physical and
mental shock the coloring matter which
had in early life developed in oath iris
had atrophied or disappeared, leaving
the eyes the original blue colortrig pre-
sent at birth."—London Daily Mal.

WIRE BALE TIES.

Great Variety.
Among the. thousands of manufactur-
ing establisuments in New York pro-
ducing goods in practically endless
variety there es juet one that makes
wire bale ties. This concern. has been ie
continuous operation. here for forty!
years and Ls 0111 turning out bale lies.
'Wire bale tiee are used for many dif-
ferent putposes, for pressing hay, sttaw,
corn husks, rnose, jute, rags, paper stock,
leather, iron tin, all kinds of eomeress-
ible material's, and the -eettIber of them
used is in the aggregate enormouri,
It might be suppoeed that a wire bale
tie was juet a piece of wire put around
e bale. As matter ot eact wire hale ties
are produced in four standard etyloe. in
about thirty different lengthe and five
different sizes of wire, so that wire bale
ties are really made in very ereat var-
iety. It is poesible for wire bale tie
users to buy precisely what they want,
tiee exactly suited to then' needs and

same time of the utmost economy, with-

their finished marketeble form cheaply
and expeditiously there is used maehin-
ery of great ingenuity. The steel wire
a which the ties are made eomes from
the mills in coils, and first it must be
straightened in a wire straightening ma-
chine. The central feature of this ma-
chine is a steel cylinder shaped barrel
a foot long,and six- inches in diameter,
set horizontally, and which in operation
ie revolved horizontally at very high
speed, Lengthwise through the centre
of the barrel there is a hole for the wire
to run, and from the eircumferenee of
the cylinder, which is otherwise heavy
and solid, there are cut through the steel
to the hole runnine lengthwise throueh

are set dies. These dies are adjusted to
to the gauge of the wire passing through
and. as the wire paesees them they bring

A discuselon in the British 1VIedical
journal has lately raised the question
whether children should be allowed to
eat sweets.. Several specialists, basing
their opinion on careful investigation,
have stated their belief that not may
rimy the teeth be injured by the habit,
but that the consumption of chocolatee,
iuJubes, acid drops, and Se terth often
brings about stomach troubles which
InCiirectly affect the wholo eystem. On
the other hand, many eminent medical
authorities deny that any harmful effects
arise from, the eating of sweets provided
always that thess be pure,
Tliere is, however, 410 deUbt that
the continued uresenee of sugar in tne
mouth is ravorable te the developtnent of
mierobes which produce acid substances
very detrimental to the teeth. Fuqher,
any proceee ot fermentation set up ia
this way may very well react unfavor-
ably on the stomach. Stilt there is as yet
ne proof .that the proper care ot the
mouth and the diligent use of the tooth-
brosh will not counteract such effects.
