Household Storage Fruits, Vegetables A11 fruits and vegetables selected for ;hobsdhold winter storage• should be fully grown and free from damage caused by insects, rough handling mechanical injury, freezing and chilling, states R. E. Rob,jnsen, Chief, Fruit and Vegetable Field Services, Dominion Department "1 Agriculture, in a bulletin on "House- hold Storage of Fruits and Vege- tables." Great care should be exer- cised in grading and sorting Betpro- duce for storage so as to eliminate decayed or partly decayed speci- mens. iSarnples of such srroduc;s as apples, potatoes and turnips, should be selected and cut to deter- mine internal injury. Apples are sub- ject to internal defects caused b; railroad worm, bitter pit, core flush, corky -core, and water core; potatoes may have black heart, mildew, blight, and internal browning; and turnips may be affected with brown heart. All fruits and vegetables with internal injury should not be stored. Useful information in connection with successful storage is given enn- cisely in the bulletin—how to arrange the storage room, selection of varieties of apples, potatoes, onions, cabbage and other vege- tables. In storage, it is essential that all specimens be thoroughly dry ani clean, since, if moisture is allowed to remain on the produce, decay is bound to follow. During the storage period, Ilse fruits and vegetables sho1c l be sorted regularly and de- fective specimens completely remov- ed from the storage room, as refuse if allowed to remain causes contam- ination of sound stock, The bulle- tin may be obtained by writing to the Publici`y and Extension Divi- sion, Dominion Department of Agri- culture, Ottawa, .".:0 'lam Bele oro a few slogans with an amusing angle that cats be worlce I into advertising copy forthe corer department: '*I -lips, Hips, Away," "We are Specialists 1n Undercover Wort.," "Prepare for Dangerous Curves Ahead."

HEALTH TOPICS THOSE FIRnI TEETH ARE VERY IMPORTANT Dr. T. L. lVlansh writing in Health, the official argon of the Health League of Canada, refutes the de- lusion that a child's first teeth are of little importance since they won't last long, On the contrary, he as- serts, they should be looked upon as the foundations for the permanent teeth. Unless they are maintained in the mouth in a healthy coed -- tion for the proper length of time, he says, the lower two thirds of the face fails to develop fully and sysninetrically and the whole appearance of the face may be spoiled. Dentist 3 Times Year liiore than this, he asserts, dental. infections progress more rapidly in the teeth of children than in those of adults, and he recommends that children's teeth should he examine•I at least three times a year from • – — CUTS COSTS 3F-10 CALUMET DOUBLE-ACTING ' BA1IING .POWDER three years of age to adolescence. Regarding the general care of the teeth, Dr. Marsh .urges thorough mastication of fibrous foods such as celery and raw apples. Gum tissues need, exercise no less than muscles, he states, and also the chewing of fibrous foods is about the best way possible to polish those surfaces or the teeth that lie toward the tongue Diet has much to do- with the health of the teeth, says Dr, Mersa At least -a pint of milk a day should be drunk, and meals should include one egg a day, same fresh fruit and vegetables while sticky, starchy car- bohydrates Should be reduced to a minimum. In winter months, when sunbaths are impossible, cod-liver oil should be taken in order to sup- ply the necessary vitamin D. l ,Cp River In Algeria Of Natural Ink If you saw somebody filling a fountain pen from a river, end then writing with it, you would be entitled to rub your eyes—unless you haened to be in Algeria. But in that country there is one stream that not only loofas like ink, but is also thick enough to write with. Fee by two springs, one of which is Ina pregnated with lead oxide and the other with ferric salts, this strange. stream thus has the same chemical composition as ordinary ink, But nI course it would happen that, by sheer cussedness of chance.

A man has no more religion than he acts out in his life.—H.W.B. A man may say too much even on. the best subject. Earth is but the frozen echo of the silent voice of God. Hagemau Knowledge is power.—Bacon. It is good speaking that improves good silence. The best way to get even—is to forget. A purpose underlies character, culture, position, attainment of any sort. Who speaks, sows who listens, reaps. It is one thing to speak much and another to speak pertinently. Beauty without virtue is like a. flower without perfume, Rutfinl.
