Sanitary Conditions Essential to
Healthy Haines."
If the twentieth century is to be
[narked by Canada s expansion, and no
one doubte the the statement,lt i. in the
highest degree essential thatrwe should
be wise and see to it that none of the
eviler incident to the development of
the great industrial centres of other
countries. particularly in the way of
in. udicient, inadequate and improper
housing accommodation, scar the fair
name of Canada.
Let it be said of Canadians that we
have been wiee, and by the early
adoption of preventive measures, hay •
endeavored to obviate errors in towe-
planning and housing. These will no
longer be possible if adequate powers
be given to health authorities to con
demn,and, if nced,be destroy thehouse
which is not,,at home. Along these
lines the Commlbion of Conservation
is working, in the hope that our prov-
incial governments will at an early
date, adopt the necessary legislation,
and, what is more esential to the sue-
cessful carrying on of the work,
establish provincial boards or commi•
ssions to direct and supervise the work
which is of a peculiarly technical
character, To attain this end, the
assistance of the public is necessary,
for it cannot be too clearly understood,
that Benitez y reform in this direction
waits on public opinion. Without
this impulse from the people, no sub
etantial housing reform is possible.
This was the opinion of the Royal
Commiesion of Great Britain on Over-
crowding, in 188t, and the words are
worth repeating here: "What, at the
present time, is specially required is
some motive power, and probably there
can be no stronger motive power than
public opinion. We require an awake-
ning of civic conscience and a well-
informed active public opinion."
Perhaps to secure this public opinion
the moral a ffects of sanitary reform
may be indicated in the words of two,
well-known English rrformers, ono a
philanthropist, and the other a sani-
tarian, Lord Shaftesbury and Sir 3.
Simon. The former eaid:'•Ninetenthe
of poverty, misery and crirneareprod-
uced by habits of intoxication, and I
trace these habit', not altogether, but
mainly, to the domicilary conditions
of the great mese of the population of
this metropolis and of the large towns
of the country." iVbile the father of
sanitary science in England wrote most
tersely—" Where overcrowding exsists,
in a saitary sense, almost always it
exsists even more perniciously in cert-
tain moral senoes. , . . To children
who are born uuder its curse, it mutt
often be a very babtit:m of infamy."
If therefore, we cannot favour this
sanitary problem for sanitary reasons,
surely the appeal for support to the
effort now being made to secure imp-
roved and healthier homes, must sti Ike
a sympathetic cord in the hearts of
mothers and fathers—for, to sum up
the opinion of these two philanthrop-
ists, overcrowding is damnation of
both body and soul.
We require in Canada that the health
and vigour of our race ebould be main-
tained at the highest attainable stand-
ard, so that each and all can fulfil the
duties of life and leave the world
better from our having lived here.
These desirable objects can only be
attained by individual effort on the
part of each one of us to do his or her
utmost to preserve the lives of those
intrusted to our care and thus conserve
the health of the commuity in which
we live and the nation of which we
form a part.
Feed Makes Milk.
The cow that makes the b(,at ,yield is
`the cow that eats the most feed`.
Among milk cows of dairy breeding it
is exceptional when a large feeder
proves unprofitable. It is the light feed-
er among such class of cattle that is
disposed of first. Since milk can be
had only from teed, the more feed the
eow can concert Into milk at a Profit
the more profitable she is to her owner,

corn. From one to three pounds of

Horse Clipping Pays.
> am an advocate of horse cllpptng
and am thoroughly convinced that n
machine will, 10 the course of one sea-
son, pay for itself, says W. G. Nolan
in Orange Judd Farmer. Eight bead
of work borsres are kept on my farm,
and• they are clipped every spring. 1
And that by clipping more work, with
no more exertion or feed, can be ac-
complished. Then horses that are
clipped are less apt to contract colds,
etc., if properly cared for. They will
also be fresh and full of vigor, while
the horse with a heavy coat will be
dull, out of condition and seldom or
never dry or clean. Aside from this,
the general appearance of the hors°
Is -greatly improved.
Parasites In Pigs.
We have never yet seen a bunch of
pigs ranging in age from eight weeks
to three months that did not expel
worms when treated With a good worm
remedy, says the Iowa ilomestead.
Tbis being the case, It surely is a sen-
sible prevention to get rid of these
pests when the pigs are young. Some
swine breeders prefer the prepared
worm remedies; others will use tur-
pentine, and still others will resort to
the use of santonin. In any event the
essential and important thing is to get
rld of the worms before the parasites
have had an opportunity to undermine
the constitution of the pigs.
Hogs For Pasture.
There is no breed of swine especially
adapted for forage purposes. Any of
the recognized fat breeds will thrivt
in pastured areas, provided they art
given in addition sufficient, grain td
enable rapid aud'eontlnuous growth,
Representatives of the bacon breeds
are not so well adapted for pasturing,
as they are inclined to waste and utl'
Iizeaenergp roaming about the field.
