The development of the by-product• business• alone reads, like a fairy story. For it was only a taw years ,.ago, that British ,Coiumbia imported all its • jams, tinned fruits, and similar ,food- stuffs, but' to -day the Pacific coact province is steadily forging ahead and placing its own brands on the markets of the world. Last year, -1924, British Columbia. farms, orchards• and ' gardens grew 13,154,016 lbs. of produce that went in- , 'to' manufactured products. That, roughly -speaking, is but 10 per cent. of herfruit production, and was made up of apples,, crab-apples, pears, plums, prunes; : peaches, apricots, cherries, trtrawberries, loganberries, red and black currants and gooseberries.

A cannery has, been established to take care of the output. Kamloops; too, baa put. up a large pack of canned goods, 'while at Kel- owna this summer 8 e .canneries are going full blast. Nearly every cannery in the province puts up 'thousands of Cases of tornatoea; 2,800 acres this year being Planted with toms. Last_ season there was but tiali that num- ber planted, out to this crop. Strawberry and raspberry by-pro- ducts have engaged the attention of several plants during' -rthe past : few years and with Conaiderable success. The finished product;'•have found' a ready sale, some of the geode being shipped to the old country, Dastern Canada and the .United States. Some years ago an American brew- ing 'company ':located in the ` north - Western states put -through its, plant several hundred ton's of 'loganberries, making a: highly. palatable drink, but it remained for British Columbia to •- puke theloganberry nectar auprenie loganberry. wine. This wine has . found a ready market through the pro- vincial "government liquor stores, where a full-sized bottle, sells for 60 cents, a price ,whioh is making the product a most popular seller. ' Last year the winery on Vancouver Island put out about. 25,000 gallons of, wine, and this, yearn the company con- tracted for, approximately 125 tone of. loganberries and will yro'liably have an output'of between ;flay and sixty thousand 'gallons' of wino. Leet year the Vancouver winery made about twenty thcQuat}nd °gallons of this wine.

' MOTHERS IUD HAVE USED BABY'S OWN TABLETS Always Strongly. Recommend Them to Other Mothers. Once a mother has used Baby's Own Tablets for her little ones she will use nothing else—actual experience teach- es her that there is no other medicine to equal themfor any of the minor ail- ments from which her baby or little ones suffer. Having found the value of the Tabletsher she in er own'home s e is always anxious that other mothers should share her knowledge. That is why Mrs: Creighton White, North Noel Road, N.S., writes the following:—"I have a baby seventeen months old and have given him nothing but Baby's Own' Tablets ever since he was a week old. I. know of no• other medicine to equal them, and it is certainly a plea- sure to recommend them to other mothers." Baby's. Own Tablets are a mild but thorough laxative that regulate the stomach and bpwels; banish constipa= tion, and indigestion; break up colds and simple fevers and make the sickly baby well and happy again.

NW'STijENGTI FOR 'WEAK ST A. Indi8estion ?isappears When the Blood is Enriched. The urgent need of all who suffer from indigestion ,is a tonic to enrich the blood. Pain and distress. after eat- ing is the way the stomach dhows that it is too weak to perform the work. of digesting the food taken. In this condition' some people foolishly resort to purgatives, but these only further aggravate the trouble. New strength is given weak stom- achs by Dr. Williams' Pink Pills be- cause these pills enrich and purify the blood, This is the natural process of giving staength and tone to the stom- ach, and it addounts for the speedy re- lief in stomach disorders that follow the use of Dr Williams' Pink Pills. The appetite revives, food can be taken without discomfort and the bur- den and pains of indigestion axe dis- pelled. The'following statement from Mr. Donald L. hatter, Lakeville,'N.S., proves the value of these pills in cases of this kind. He says:—"A couple of years ago I had a bad attack of indi- gestion. I had little or no appetite, and what I did eat did not agree with me and caused •me much pain. As a result of this trouble my . general health broke dgwn, and I finally had to give up my work. I had taken doc- tor's medicine- but it did not give me any relief. Then a friend advised me to give Dr. Williams' Pink Pills a trial, and T got six boxes. Before I had completed the tbird box I found that they were helping me and by the time I had taken the six .boxes every symptom of indigestion had disappear- ed, my general health had . improved and I have since been'In the very beat of health. I look upon Dr. Williams' Pink Pills: as a wonderful medicine for all who are run-down." You can get these pills from any medicine dealer or by mall at 50 cents a box from The Dr. Williams' Medicine Go., Brock -villa, Ont. ,;Extractions "This business, of getting everybody to have t".eir teeth examined seems, to me all bunk," said an acquaintance on the opposite seat of the train as he looked up from his• paper. "Don't you think it is just propaganda to give dentists Work?" I studied my interlocutor for a mo- ment or two and then replied: "I was in bed once for six months with acute arthritis of the joints. It sometimes took me half an hour to turn over in bed. Then I insisted on having nary tonsils, removed. I immediately be gan to improve but only to a limited extent. I waited a month and then I insisted. on being taken toe dentist to have my teeth, X-rayed. The X-ray films did not show anything wrong. I waited a week and then sent for a dentist. 'Pull this one," I told hien,. putting my finger an a tooth which I had long suspected because it did. not .feel quite dee same as the others. He pulled it. it had a pus sac on in just below the e margin of the gums. I began to make 'further improvement from that day and my amt'hritis,.'dis- a8,ipeared. • Two years in bed and on crutches is the penalty 1 paid for that diseased tooth and ono diseased ton- sil."

"In addition; 69 other children (6 per cerrt.) had disease of permanent teeth other than six-year molars.

"It la ate - parent that there is still much to be done from the standpoint of education to enable children, and eepeolally rural children, 'to' preserve these first per- manent ermanent ,teeth. Tables, prepared by the experts in charge of this survey showed that children with diseased teeth are more likely to be under- weighe than are children with healthy teeth. The rural children also had more diseased ieetih than town child- ren." "I suppose you consider that to be due ,to medical inspection and aoces- sibility to dentin'." "Yes,, the general standard of health in the children of the Dundee Public School, where medical inspection has been carried on. for five years was found to be notably- better than that In the rural schools, This, Is a prac- tical raytical demonstration of the value of medical inspection in school's. Ii is distressing to record that in one rural district over forty-two per cent, of the children showed .dJsease of permanent teeth and that Bess than onethird of these had received, dental treatment." "Then it simply weave that dental treatment must be made available for children attending schools at a dis- tance from dentists or school dental Services." "That is exactly th'e conclusion reached by those who made the sur- vey. You used, almost weir very. words.
