but they cuntniu no more mineral (natter
than the rnetertals from whioh they
were formed. They are, therefore very
likely to be defiictent in uotash, phos-
phoric aeid, sed lime, nee -scare for the
fulldevelopm-•ntof our 'nlrivrited plants,
especially those prladnring seed.
During the haat tweuty•five years a
large number of these swamps have
been cleared and drained. Wuere the
vegetable matter is well decayed and
not too deep, good crops, even of cereals,
may be matured after the soil hag been
cultivated for two or three years. Tito
best results are obtained where the sub-
soi1 is clay and some of it has gradually
become mixed with the top soil; but
where the' egetttble mould is deep, o,
the subsoil sand or gravel, the results
are usually not satisfactory crops. such
as hay and roots, which are but matured
before harvesting, very often do well
while wheat and oats will tail to pro.
dace seed. There ere eti11 other
which fail to produce Ecu uuerativc
crops of any kind. Tne rauk growth
commdn on swamp soils is dunbtless dee
to the excessive amount of nitrogen
which is derived from the decayiug
vegetable matter. and the pu•ir seed pro-
duction is prot,ably canned by the small
amount of mineral matte: present In
most cases, where a drained swamp
soil dries out to much in the summer,
• the organ matter is not sufficiently de-
cayed to form a close soil.
In recent years so many lettere com-
plaining of the unprot1uetiveness of
these soils have heen received et the
Chemical Department of the Oetario
Agricultural College that we have de
tided to investigate the matter and see
if any remedy can be suggested to iu-
cease their usefnlness. For this pur
pose, nearly 1;000 circular iett.ers have
been sent to farmers who awn swamp
soils. From the information contained
in the answer received and the results
of the analyeee of a number of typical
samples an tram pet experiments, we
hope to be able to suggest some remedy
and next year to undertake co-operative
experiment!= to test the efficiency of
these reinedies.

Canada's Booming Time.
The London, Englund. Daily Keil
says: - 'Before trump, ss c,•ks lire past,
if expectation is rr•)tliz .1, men and
wolueu will be arriving in Canada froth
all parts of the world at the rate of a
thousand a day. Never before in the
history of the world, perhaps, has a
country been p• -opted with such
astouiehing swiftness; Last veer aloue
some 200,000 iuunigrants eutered
Canada; Slone the opening of the spring
of the present year mica and women have
been arriving tttlte rate of 4.000 a week.
and it is confidently expected that by
the middle of summer the tate•per week
will be double if not treble, that nu Miter.
Altogether. it is expected that the close
of this year will see 800,000 uew settlers
within the Donuttion -roughly tau
average of a thousand fur every working
day. They hail, these neer Canadians,
from Britain, Denmark, Scandinavia,
Finland, Russia, France, Italy, and the
United States. The Homeland leads the
way, the Americans eotne a close second,
and not far behind follow the conipatriots
of Giribaldi. Most of theca have little
money. but frequently atnoug those
from Britain and the States are men
comparatively well-- to do. .One mat,
indeed, from the States is reported to
have brought with hitt into Canada
stock and ituplements worth £20,000."

The infamy underlying this state-
ment takes all words from we, but my
informant sees nothing startling in the
case and continues gravely:
"From six year's old they are sold to
be companions, and from twelve they
go to the harems. Prices are good, too

Mary Magdnlene's Grave.
Fifteen thousand pilgrims annually

from Marseilles, where Mary Magda-

St. Anne, the head of St. James the

from early ages this story has been dis-
puted, and the Abbe Duchesne, one of
the most erudite writers on the early
Christian saints and martyrs. consid-
ers that the relies of Mary Magdelene
were probably sent from Constantino-
ple about the seventh century. A
Greek breviary, however, speaks 'of the
saint as having died at EphSsus.

Moltke, Grant, Marlborough, Charle-

orders in as few words as possible and
demanded like brevity 'from their sub-

never allowed more than a minute for
a verbal report, and it is told of Von
Moltke that when an aid-de-camp
brought a written message that France
had declared war the great general
simply ordered it filed in the "second
pigeonhole on. the right, first tier." In
that pigeonhole were complete plans
for the successful campaign that fol -
