Marriages, Birth and Deaths.
Mixed marriages are increasing in
Ontario, despite the strenuous efforts
of church organizations to turn the
tide the other way. This is conclusive-
ly shown by the annual report of the
Registrar General for 1911. During
the 12 months the returns show an in-
crease of two per cent. in the number
of Raman Catholics marrying outside
their Church. In 1910 there were 7,351
Roman Catholics married, and of this
number 1,509 entered into mixed mar-
riages. The number who made mixed
marriages last year was only 10 more
than in 1910, but the number of Roman
Catholics who entered into matrimony
was but 6,748. Of these 1,519, or 22.5
per cent., married outside their church.
The Methodist denomination head-
ed the marriage list, with a per cent -
age of 28.2. The Presbyterians follow-
ed closely with 20.4, and the Anlicans
third with 20.1. The Roman Catholics
came fourth with 13.1 per cent., and
the Baptists fifth with 6.6. The Luth-
erians were ahead of the Congregation-
alists with 3.7 the latter contributing
only 1.2 per cent., of the marriage
total. Altogether there were 25,807
marriages, an increase of 1,771.
That there is still room for reform in
the way of preventing marriages be-
tween minors is shown by the total of
5,520 persons under the age of 20 mar-
ried during the year, or 10.7 per cent,
of the marriage total. The number
of bridegrooms between the ages of 15
and 19 whp entered matrimony was 581,
and of brides 4,939.
That age bothers Master Cupid very
little is another fact gleaned from the
report. Up to the alloted span of life
-three score and ten -marriages were
frequent, particularly upon the part of
the male sex. But 70 was not the stop-
ping point, 72 gentlemen of that age
and over succumbing to Cupid. There
were, however, only 13 blushing brides
who confessed to 70 or more.
The record of births reached a total
of 37,235, of which 2,463 were still
births. The births showed an increase
of 1,364. During the year 622 pairs of
twins saw the light, while six cases of
triplets were reported.
A depressing feature of the report is
the statement that 1,807 children were
born out of wedlock.
The death total in Ontario during
the year showed a smaller increase
than the births, an evidence of an im-
proving general health. The number
of deaths was 34,841, an increase of
only 802. The cities contributed 12,-
940 deaths, a ratio of 17.1. The towns
of over 5,000 population were a little
better off, showing deaths of 2,704, a
ratio of 16.6 per thousand.
The campaign against tuberculosis is
bringing results, this year's death rate
from the scourge being the lowest since
records have been kept. Last year
there were 2,353 deaths from `tubercul-
osis, a rate per 100,000 population of 92,
compared with 127 in 1881, 112 in 1891,
and 148 in 1901.
That this improvement has proceed-
ed at a greater pace than the improve-
ment in the general health of the peo-
ple is shown by the fact that in 1881
tuberculosis contributed 10 per cent. of
the total deaths; in 1911 and 1901, the
disease contributed 10 per cent., while
last year only 6.85 per cent. of the
total deaths were from the "white
plague,"
Contributors to Canada's Wealth
It is always of interest to compare
the values of the products of each of
the leading industries of a country.;.,
Everyone will tell you that Canada is i
immensely rich but when you demand
particulars they are not so readily
forthcoming as are general statements. 1
Canada has not, as yet, made such stat-
istical progress as to permit a close
comparison of this kind to be made
for
a particular year. The following fig-
ures, however, are quoted by Conser-
vation (published at Ottawa) as approx-
imations of the values produced annu-
ally by our greatest natural resources,
and by manufacturing:

ing of which of which was held in Tor-
onto recently. The grocer will ask
the Government at the next session of
Legislature to so amend the act as to
further protect them against "dead
beats" many of whom under the present
act cannot be garisheed. By the many
grocers throughout the country this plan
will be graciously receivd as the dodging
of accounts is one of the many trials with
which they have to contend. In the
grocery business more than in any other
business perhaps is the finger of the
dead beat evident as in that business;
there are greater chances of getting a-
way with the goods without going
through theformality of paying for them.
There is no other business either in
which the loss can be less afforded. A
grocer may do a big business but on his
wares there is not the profit that men in
other lines secure. His trade for is
nearly all credit so that it does not take
the loss of very many large accounts to
eat a good size hole in the heart of his
bank balance. Since it is so therefor it
is not to be wondered at that the man
who hands out the necessities of life is
agitating for wider powers in garnishee-
ing. He has a business that is easily
assailable and as he has to take no end
of risks he should and no doubt will be
afforded better protection when the
Provincial Solons again convene.

Canadian Postal Business.
The growth of the Canadian postal
business is indicated in the annual re-
port of the Postmaster -General, tabled
last week in the House of Commons. A
surplus of over three million dollars is
recorded.
The number of posteffices is 13,859,
an increase of 535. Postal note offices
increased by 569, money -order offices by
172; and savings bank offices by 21.
There was an increase of 1,869,867 miles
in the mileage of mail routes. The
number of letters carried in the mails
was 566,140,000 and postcards 54,727,000.
The total revenue was $10,482,255 and
the expenditures $9,172,035.
A notable extension in the rural mail
delivery system is noted, and a separate
branch to attend to it has been estab-
lished. There are now 900 rural mail
routes and 25,000 boxes. From Sept.,
1908, to the end of the fiscal year 2,740
annuities were sold and $1,319,924 re-
ceived.

When Blood 1s Poison,
The blood must be filtered, otherwise
you are poisoned. If the kidneys fail
the liver is overworked, and becomes
torpid. By using Dr. Chase's Kidney -
Liver Pills you get both these filtering
organs working right, and also ensure
healthful action of the bowels. For
this reason these pills are an ideal fam-
ily medicine. They cure biliousness,
constipation, chronic indigestion- and
kidney disease.
True Enjoyment.
What constitutes recreation depends,
of coarse,on the point of view of the one
who is recreated. This anecdote from
The Troy Times shows what one small
citizen thought enjoyable:
A boy in a certain State school for
dependent children wrote his father
thus:
"Dear Papa
We children are having a good time
here now. Mr. Sager broke his leg and
can't work. We went on a picnic and
it rained and we got all wet. Many
children here are sick with the mumps.
Mr Higgins fell off the waggon and
broke his rib, but he can work a little.
The man that is digging the deep well
whipped us with a boggy whip beeause
we threw sand in his machine, and made
black and blue marks on us. Earnest
cut his finger badly. We are all very
happy." -Youth's Companion.

Big Husbands Best.
Big men make the best husbands, and
little men with sharp, thin noses are es-
pecially to be avoided, according to
Mrs. Anna Murphy, chief police•matron,
in her official report to the New York
Chief of Police.
Mrs. Marie Leavitt, clerk of the court
of domestic relations, also forwarded a
report in which she jolted the little men.
"Big men, whether it is in business or
in matrimony, are easiest to get along
with," wrote Matron Murphy. "They
are more likely to be easy-going and
less irritable and more generous. The
little man is more likely to be nervous
and fidgety.
"A man with a sharp, thin nose is
apt to be a scold. Where a man of small
stature is endowed with a nasal organ
of this sort you have a bad combination
There .you have a prize fault-finder. He
will rail at everything, from the way
the steak is cooked to the way his
socks are darned."
Mrs. Leavitt added this:
"The small men greatly outnumber
the big men in the cases that come be-
fore this court. Most of our cases are
for non-support, and on this complaint
the little, unskilled man is the worst
offender by far.
Dusters should de washed often, then
dipped in kerosene and dried in the open

The Brown Swiss cattle are a
comparotivoly little known breed.
They are generally classed as a
dual purpose breed. though as a
rule the cows tend more strongly
to milk than beef. Brown Swiss
are easily kept in good flesh and
have abundant vitality to with-
stand hardships, as droughts and
severe winters. They are free from
nervousness diad flighty disposi-
tions, as le often the case with oth-
er breeds. No matter how heavily
a Brown Swiss cow is milking, she
maintains her vigor and rarely ap-

It is to take care of short summer
and short early fall pastures that we
urge the planting of some crop as al
supplement to the pastures and which
eau be fed green. On farms where
alfalfa is grown alfalfa hay from the
stacl� or alfalfa cut and partially cured
in this field before feeding gives de-
sired results. Early sown Kaffir, soy
ghum or corn large enough to feed
green at such tinges will never pay
better than when fed in this way.
The edltor has fed hundreds of tons of
this green stuff to the dairy cows as
supplement to short grass, says Kan-
sas Farmer. A feed night and morn -
tug in the mangers so that the cows
only and not the whole herd will be
fed is a good way to do it.
In this summer feeding the silo is
the ideal arrangement, provided silage
has heen' left over from the winter
feeding. It is a good plan to build a
silo of such size that there will be
sciage left for summer and late sum-
mer feeding. On real dairy farms a
summer silo is maintained.
Selecting a Dairy Cow. •
The best way to select a dairy cow
is to take the amount of milk and but-
ter fat she produces and keep a record
of it. That takes time, but there Is a
certain relation between type and pro-
duction, says the Kansas Farmer. The
wedge shape belongs to the dairyani-
mal-the triple wedge shape as viewed
from the front, the side and from the
top. We want the fine hair and small
bones, for If we have coarseness in any
marked degree it shows a tendency to
the beef type: The udder is the most
important of fill. It should come well
forward and run up well behind. The
fore udder should not be cut up. It is
more apt to be defective. Teats should
be well placed. of fair size and reason-
able distance apart. The milk veins
and milk wells are important as show-
ing productive capacity. The more
twisted fir crooked the reins the great-
er
reater the capacity of the udder to pro-
duce milk. The veins should be long
and large, but not of too large size for
the capacity of the milk wells. The
