OF MANITOBA
DAWN QF NEW ERA IN
AGRICULTURE.
Soon There Will Not be . a
Habitable Locality in Canada
Without Fruit Garden.
In prefacing, hes address 'on the
above reelect before the Manitoba
Horticultural Society recently, W. J.
Broughen said: "My title seem a
301900 mauy people who have lived in
Manitoba a tang time, Yet to a com-
parative few, those who know what
the province :produces ht this way, it
Is not a whimsical title but one which
has a real foundation In fact, The re-
eidents et large of 'Manitoba do not
knowthe fruit growing possibilities of
their own province, and I believe this
may be extended to Saskatchewan and
Alberta,"
Mr. Boughen, to use his own expres-
sion, has often staggered friends of.
bis in the salve province by excellent
crops of raspberries, sand -cherries,
currants, and crabs, and then modest-
ly passing over his own achievements
Ile goes on to say, "I never saw a bet-
ter crop of apples than that at Steven-
eon's orchard at Morden in 1919, when
300 bushels were harvested. The
heavily loaded trees surpassed any-
thing I ever saw, every tree Loaded to
Its fullest capacity"
A Natural Wild Plum Orchard.
The Morden district referred to Is
a natural large wild plum orchard and,
due to the stimulus of the Dominion
Experimental Station in the district,
is now producing large quantities of
the cultivated varieties, which thrive
excellently and arrive at substantial
size in the soil whirl' is so admirably
suited to their production. Last year
a heavy demand was met at, the ex-
perimental farm by a splendid crop of
commercial sale proportions.
Grafting tame varieties on the wild
trees is a work easy of successful per-
formance, and the subject is treated
prarticully and concisely in .t pamph-
let puhliohed by the gnvertment.
Tree., six year:' old have yield•,1 two

The Prolific Sandberry.
A itltle 1-nov: n fruit in Canada which
has given excellent result, when trans-
planted in -meniteha is the sandberry,
wheel le .n reality a dwarf plum. It
is exceedingly prolific if grown on
light Andy soil. In the wilds it grows
en dry gravel ridges or the pure sand,
ani can he cultivated to a saccesstut
and profitable extent about a farm-
house located in such circumstances.
The fruit erosses readily with the
plum, and some of the best plum hy-
bride are of this sandcherry crossed
with the big California or Japanese
plums.
:Another fruit largely imported, and
which experience has proved can be
successfully raised on the prairies. is
the low brush cranberry. It has been
'authoritatively stated that no fruit -
lands pay as well as a cranberry bog,
and the homesteads of the west con-
tain thousands of miniature swamps,
'the statural ]lone of the cranberry,
possessing ail the requisites for a pro-
perly conducted cranberry bog. Suc-
cessful cultivation in Manitoba leas
led the way for other western agri-
culturnllsts to follow.
It bas been clearly demonstrated
that the iniltvatien of the apple, the
plum, the sandcherry and the cran-
berry ran be sucee:esfully and profit-
ably followed in Manitoba. This is
the experience of the province's horti-
cultural pioneers, What can be
achieved In Manitoba has equal oppor-
tunities in Alberta and Saskatchewan.
In fact the irrigated districts of South-
ern Alberta have of recent years made

culture. If fruit le a0t grown more ox•
tensively it is not because of unsuit-
ability of soil or climate (tor the
numerous species of wild berries
welch cover the prairies and perk
lands before the advent of the fence
and plough, effeetivelY contradict
this), but because there has been na
time for this culture in the busy day
oe the plon'eor agriculturalist. An-
other era has dawned. Experimenta-
tion by government experts into the
best varieties for hardiness and fruit-
fulness is extensive and 8ucc0s840,
andnew varieties of fruits are con-
; ,
i tlnually being produced by the expert-
' mental farms.
With the steady progress being
made in crossbreeding and selection,
it is confidently believed by Mr, Bou•
ghen that there will not be a habitable
locality in Canada wbiolh may not
have its fruit garden,
The Shame of Russia.
The moral degradation to which the
Bolshevik) are reducing Russia is
strikingly illustrated by two things
that an American worker in the Near
East Relief has reported. lie writes in
the Weekly Review :
The al'genlzation of children of ten-
der years to spy upon their elders is
another method of destroying the life
of a nation. It is a direct attack on
the soul of the child. The lowest in-
stincts are appealed to by reward; in-
nate vanity is fostered by the import-
ance given to the work the child per-
forms. Its accusations are apparently
accepted without question.. Many in-
stances have reached me. Two men
sat on the same bench in a public gar-
den discussing in perfectly moderate
language the affairs of the day while
in the neighborhood hovered a child
of ten playing with a hoop. Suddenly
a policeman appeared and took both
amen into custody. As they were led
off the little girl called out, "Don't for-
get that it was I that told—number
six:"
Equally effectivemethods are em-
ployed to destroy the decency and the
self-respect of the rising female gene-
ration. Young and attractive girls are
organized into a band whose object it
is to draw men into committing them-
seires as to their political views.
These girls are elegantly dressed and
have unlimited money at their dis-
posal. They frequent restaurants,
theatres and other places of amuse-
ment where they can put their attrac-
tions to u.e. Young ladies even of the
better class are invited to Jain this
band with promises of high payment.
A young girl well known to us was
told as an inducement that a certain
member of the band had by her skill
caused the death of twelve men and
had received In consequence very
large rewards.
My Prairie Sea.
Ch. the ranch -house door is my bit of
coast,
And I gaze far out at sea
Where an ocean of lush green prairie
rolls,
And the winds blow fresh and free.
And the slender stakes of the barb -
wire fence
Are the masts of my little fleet,
As it sails away to the far-off place
Where the eky and ocean meet,
As I sit and think of the wonder -world
That lies in the vast 'but there,"
I dream of the treasure my ships shall
bring,
When their, homeward course they
bear.
011, the winds are sweet in the ocean
paths,
And sweet is the song of the sea,
For Iove sits close by the ranch -house
hearth
And he whispers low to me.
---Lachlan Campbell.
Color -blindness has curious traits.
If a color-blind man married a normal
woman, the children would be normal,
but color -blindness might appear in
the daughters sons.

WOMEN LOOM IN
BRITISH POLITICS
PREMIER'S WIFE AND VIS-
COUNTESS ASTOR, M.P.
Feminine Influence is Being
Exercised More Directly
Than Ever Before.
More and more the feminine per-
sonality is coming into -British politics,
and here, as in America, women are
exercising a more direct influence
than ever before, says a London des-
patch. Undeniably they constitute an
appreciable consideration in the des-
tiny of the country and the importance
of their part grows as the rulers of the
state realize this and shape their poli-
cies accordingly.
With the assembling of Parliament
after the Easter holidays the feminine
factor is probably stronger in English
politics than it has ever been in the
history of the empire. An uncertain
situation has been brought about by
the new complexion of Parliament.
The resignation of Boner Law and the
rise of Austen Chamberlain, with
many influential women In his family
connections, has put affairs on an en-
tirely new plane and one in which the
women of England occupy an impor-
tant place.
Many Women Who Count.
The question has often been asked
here, "What part do women play in
polities?" But now the question is,
"Who are the women who count in
politics?" The shrewdest politicians
in the Government to -day will admit"
there are many women who count,
some who have a decided influence
and some whose influence is certain
to grow.
In the foreground are women of vari-
ous political and social standings, but
women whose power strangely oscil-
lates in almost the same manner as
the force of the men high up in politi-
cal life.
Standing above all women in Eng-
lish politics to -day are Mrs, Lloyd
George, wife of the Premier, and Vic -
countess Astor, the only woman mem-
ber of Parliament. Until very recent-
ly Mrs, Lloyd George has kept herself
in the background, but with the churn-
ing of English politics she is gradual-
ly but certainly emerging as a charac-
ter at once simple and large, con-
spicuously genuine and inconspicuous-
ly competent in the romance of mod-
ern political life. This is the secret
of her completely successful appre-
hension of a position—the most vul-
nerable open to a woman in this coun-
try—to which she did not aspire.
Since the PremIer's family has
moved to Chequers she has come
more and more to the front as a
charming hostess, a capable wife and
an intelligent assistant, it not an ad-
viser. The old tinsel days of Downing
Street, set up by Mrs. Asquith, have
gone, but in their place has been
created the influence of Chequers,
probably as much broader and bright-
er to the women of England as Cheq-
uers is to Downing Street. In this at-
mospheee the Premier's wife s3m1-
balizes the spirit shown by the women
of England in the war, a spirit which
has meant much for the country and
which has earned the deep respect
and esteem with 'which women wbo
now. move in Political circles here are
regarded.
In the recent by-election at CardI-
gan, in Wales, one of the hottest.po-
litical campaigns in England for sever-
al months, Mrs, Lloyd George for the
first time took an active part, canvas-
sing for Coalition interests and ad-
dressing large audiences. The Pre-
mier won. And Mrs. Lloyd George
continues to win more and more for
her husband.
In direct performance Lady Astor
has, of course, gone further than any
other woman of England. She has to
her credit many brilliant perform-
ances which have been a decided force
to the argument that wainen have a
high place to fulfil in politics. When
she rises in the House her wit and
mental balance command a respectful
audience and her work among women
here has given her leadership which,
for actual service, has no parallel in
English history.
Mrs. Austen Chamberlain.
Mrs. Austen Chamberlain is a ster-
ling character in the backgraund, of
politics, but her duties as the wife of
the leader of the strong Unionist
Party are bound to bring her to the
front rank of politically important
women. She is called a "children's
woman" and perhaps has a natural in-
stinct to retirement. As one writer
said of her when Mr, Chamberlain was
selected, "She is a lover of books, of
her husband, of her home; in a weed—
er duty," This kind of woman, again
that simpler influence which Mrs.
Lloyd George typifies, is what many
political leaders think is needed in
politics here. The days of old have
given place to something mare serious
and more dignified, if not less intri-
guing,
Among political hostesses the Con-
servative group has long been, and
still is, a solid and substantial one.
The mansions of Londonderry, Derby
and Curzon still figure prominently in
sorest -political functions. Lady Lon-
donderry is called a tower of strength
to her party. Lady Derby has a high
conception of duty and a steady pur-
Pose. The present Viscountess Cur-
zon adds much to the feminine force
with her beauty, charm and gifts of
entertaining, Lady Birkenhead is
known for her "smartness" and, while
Lady Askwith is a different sort of
personality entirely, she Is almost
equally important.
Among those rapidly rising in thts
category is Lady Cunard (Maud )3urke,
daughter of the late E. F, Burke of
New York), who was married to Sir
Bache Cunard in 1895. Her memor-
able luncheon party of Prince Lich
nowsky at the Germany embassy late
in July, 1914, when Lords • French and
I{itchener met under thefirst length-
ening shadow of war. Lady Randolph
Churchill (Jeanie Jerome), mother of
Winston Churchill, loses none of her
power as the younger women rise,
The new Parliamentary alignment
will bring many other women into
prominence and as they come they as-
sume a place in political )ire and
create a standard for women that hide
fair to broaden rapidly.

Fruit -Picking Device.
'The old-fashioned method of gather-
ing fruit was to shake the tree or else
do the picking by ]sand. That sort of
thing would never do nowadays,'
Many contrivances for the purpose
have been •invented within the last
few years, and of these the most re-
cent has been patented by John Ha-
licki, of Dunkirk, N.Y,
Briefly described, it is a pair of
shears on the end of a long pole. One
of the bandlea of the shears is fixed
to the pole; the other is connected by
a slender metal rod with a lever, at
the lower end of the pole.
When the hand of the user, clasping
pole and lever, presses the latter by
contracting the fingers, the cutting
edges of the shears close upon the
stem fo the apple or orange and the
fruit falls into a cylindrical wire bas-
ket attached to the upper end of the
pole.
Lying flat along the upper part of
the pale and held out of the way by a
clip is a saw, which, when required
for use iu the trimming of branches,
may be released from the clip and
turned upward, being secured in that
position by a bolt that enters a slot.

It is said that the total amount
Shelley received in his lifetime from
the publisiders of his poetry was about
