It requires four pounds of kainit to
contain as muelt poteteli as one pound
of muriate of potaelt. The freight and
eost of hauling to the farra and the
handling are, therefore, nearly four
times as much on the leeeinit as on the
muriate, per pound of actual potaeh. A
pound of.potash in =Hate will usual-
ly east pet a little more than .a
pound of pOtaall in kainit; but if the
diatanee from the seaport is consider-
able or if the haul from the station to
the farm is not short the greater cost
of getting kainit to the farm will much
more than balance the slightly higher
price of the potash in ululate at the

no preservative used, and the only pre-
caution was to have the dishes and the
bottle perfectly sterile, cooling the milk
at one and keeping it all the time at a
low temperature. t'This scenes a good

what cleanliness and a low tempera-

serious census of suicide motives is
being attempted in Russian educational
inetitutions. Reports have been receiv-
ed of the results at the Riga I -Polytechnic
and the Nijni-Novgorod Middle School.
Dr. D. P. Isencolsici has classified replies
to questions put to 1,108 students at Riga.
Of the total number 507,or 46.8 per cent.
ansnered that one time or another they
had had thoughts of suicide. In 49 eases
students carried their thoughts to action;
and of those Le committed suicide before
1e05, and 25, or 51 per cent., since that
date. As 1965 was the revolution year
the high percentage points to the events
then as prompting the suicidal intentions
into action. Since 1905 the number or
suicides and attempts at suicide among
the Russian youth in their educational
years has mounted sharply.
Most of the students who had contem-
plated suicide said that their thoughts
of self-destruetion were due to their
being tired of life, because it more and
more proved empty and hopeless. Next
came bodily disease as a motive, and
then poverty or thee fear or it.
In the Nijni-Novgorod figures home-
sickness comes first among the causes
of thoughts of suicide, then loss of belief

Advertising
and
the New World
HAT populated America and made its growth one
of the wonders of the world's history? Advertising.
People heard of the opportunities in the new land, and,
believing their material welfare would be bettered here,
came.
• What populated the farms of the West and made
their rapid development the wonder of the century?
Advertising.
The government and the railways were not content
to wait until the farmers came one by one and discovered
these fertile lands for themselves.
They advertised—and accomplished in a few years
what in former days would have taken several genera-
tions to discover.
. .
What has -made cities grow in ten
year as they have never grown be-
fore? Advertising and its results,
What has made it possible to build
up big businesses in a few years where
it used to take a generation of steady
effort? Advertising.
What has made it possible for a -;11
manufacturer to introduce new goods t
in every corner of the continent in a .`it
few weeks' time, where it formerly re- al,
quired years of hard work? Adver- 1-;tVir
tising.
Advertising has changed the face of
the map. Advertising has revolu-
tionized the methods- of doing busi-
ness. Advertising has magnified the 1*:C;
possibilities of business far beyond
anything our most optimistic fore-
fathers ever dreamed of.
Advertising has brought to the
humblest home comforts and eon-
veniences that were unknown to kings
in former generations.
Advertising has raised the standard
of living, simplified the manner of
living, reduced the cost and time and
trouble of supplying our daily needs.
' Advertising has made a new world.
It has been the greatest civilizing
force in the world's history.
Advertising has brought tile man
in the backwoods in touch with the
centres of art and literature and busi-
ness and made him feel at home with
the world.
Advertising brings the world's mar-
kets to the very hearth of every home
and brings those who have needs to
v
-%plhieed.retheir needs can be best sup-,
Advertising is to -day a dominant
factor in every home, in every factory,
in every business office. Like elec.
tricity, we have always had it in
the world, hut only lately have we
found out what a tremendous power
it is. Little by little it is being ap,
plied here and there, in all manner of
ways to help the civilized human
race.

Pipes dirges weird end clam!.

The settlement of the $20,000,000 es-
tate of the late John Arbuckle, New
York, who died intestate, was compli-
cated recently by the filing in the Surro-
gate's office of opposing applications for
Letters of aaministration. One of the
appliea,tions filed claims that none of
the Arbuckle heirs is a resident of the
State. If his contention be upheld, on
anything eireeeding $10,000, a fee of one
per cent, will be levied. Such fees on a
$20,000,000 e -state will make the charges
heavy.
