THE NEGLECT OF OUR ROADS.
/Maintenance of Canada's highways is
a Necessary War Measure.
At a meeting of the American Asso-
ciation of Highway Officials a number
of resolutions were passed all urging
the building and proper maintenance
of highways as a necessary war meas-
ure; the association maintaining•that
the highways must be regarded as
part of the country's transportation
system, particularly for freight (if
less than car load lots) and for short
haul freight. We in Canada, with
the exception of, one . province, have
n irel different taken an e t y d Here t view and
looked upon our highways and streets
.as a luxury to be dispensed with dur-
ing the war, says the Canadian Muni-
cipal Journal. The consequence has
been that for the last thee° years
practically all highway'Ftnd street in1-
provements have been stopped -even
maintenance has been neglected -with
lamentable results. While it is true
to say that every dollar :ds required
for the •one purpose of winning the
war, it is also true to say that our
highways, roads and streets are just
as much an 'economic necessity to us
as those of the south of the line are,
to the people of the United States, and
the least the Canadian authorities can
do is to see that they are kept in pro-
per repair. For the last three years
'less money has been spent on our pub-
, is. lie thoroughfares than in any one.

break of war. While it was necessary
to curtail some of the ambitious road
Improvometit schemes that were ready
to lie carried out du»ring the spring
and summer of 1915 it was quite an-
other thing to go to the other ex-
treme of not only givpg up altogether
the inrprovement schemes, but actual-
ly neglecbing to maintain those roads
and streets already built. We believe
that *the provincial and local authori-
ties would be well advised in voting
• certain sums of money to put their
public thoroughfares in proper repair,
and even in certain localities to ga in
for modified schemes of improvement
during the coming season. Had a
more aggressive prosecution of road
building taken place before the war
came upon ns, and a better mainten-
once since, much of our present cliffr-
eulty of tragsportation would have
been met, with great benefit to the
citizens in the lessened cost of food-
stuffs and fuel.

GREAT BRITAIN,
200,000 Alllotment-Holders and Three
`!:'ilnes as Many Waiting Vox
Available Land.
A wave of land -hunger is sweeping
d'�re'at Britain as a result of the -as-
tonishing growth of the garden,
Planting movement begun there when
Joseph Fels of America organized the
Vacant Lot Cultivation Society.
To -day this Society is the nucleus of
an organized'movement of 250,000• al -
1 lotment-holder's,-men and women who
are "doing their bit" by growing food
on small plots of ground in and near
three times. as
' andto And
cities wns
many more are only waiting for the
land to be made available for tl},em.
In the Southern District, centering
in London, the allotment holders have
organized a federation with is mem
bership of 81,000. THe garden -plant-
ing movement has beconle"more than
a fad or an emergency war measure,
It has become a- nation-wide demand
that opportunity be opened to all who
are willing and able to cultivate the
soil, and public mon are beginning to
see in the army of allotment -holders
a rising force of the -first importance.
Says the editor of the London Herald:
"A new and living force has come
into thelife of the nation. We refer
to the allotment movement. It is one
that will compel- the practical atten-
tion and respofise of municipal au-
thorities and the Government, Allot-
ment.enthusiasts have ' become an
army, which during the war has, with
spade and hoe, drilled and trained;
have got the land hunger., and as a re-
sult are here to stay.
A force to be Reackoned With.
"Having fallen in love with Mother
Earth in time of war, they' will not,
if we Tightly estimate 'their quality,
prove false to her when peace shall
dawn. They are out to capture the
entrenchments of the land monopolist.
and food'profteer, and woe betide any
barrier which privilege shall attempt
to place in the way of the army's ad-
vance.
"An evidence of the spirit of this
movement was provided by the Con-
ference of Allotment Holders, held in
Essex Hall, London. There were pre-
sent more than 300 delegates from
some 160 societies, with an aggregate
membership of over 31,000. In his
opening address, the chairman refer-
red to 'the work of the founder of the
movement for the cultivation of va-
cant and idle land -the late Joseph
Fels'; and when, at his suggestion, the
Conference rose in a,'body `to pay tri-
bute to his memory, and place on re-
cord the determination of those pee -
sent to realize the ideal,' it was clear
that here was a force that will have to
be reckoned with in the future."
In the allotment movement, land re-
form has secured the backing of men
and women interested not as theorists,
but as actual tillers of the soil. John
Galsworthy1 the English writer, said:
"This question of the land is the
question of the future, no matter what
happens in the war. To put men on
the land we must have the land ready
in terms of earth, not of paper; and
have it in the right places, within easy
reach of town or village. . We know,
for instance, that in the last five
months half a million allotment -gar-
dens have been created in urban areas,
and far more progress made with
small holdings than in previous years.
We have the chance of our life - to
scotch the food danger, and to restore
a healthier balance between town and
country stocks.
Of First Importance.
"15nly Ave generations have brought
us to the parasitic, town -ridden condi-
tion vie are in. The rate of deteriora-
tion will -increase rapidly with edch
coming generation. We have, as it
were, turned seven -ninths of our pop-
ulation into poor paddocks, to breed
promiscuously among themselves.
"The great impedimenta is the force
of things as -they are, the huge vested
enterprises frightened of losing pre -
fits. If we pass this ntioment, when
men of every class and occupation,
even those who thrive most on our
town -ridden state, are a little fright-
ened; if we let slip this chance for a
real change --can we hope that any-
thing considerable will be done, with
the dice loaded as they are, the scales
weights 1 so hopelessly in :favor of the
towns
"Dare any say that this whole vast
question of the land with its throbbing
importance, yea, -seeing that demobil-
izations do not come every year -its
desperately immediate importance, is'
not fit matter foe instant debate and
action; dare -any say that we ought
to relegate it to that linibo, after the
war '1 In grim reality it takes prece-
dence, of every other question."

'VACANT LOT CULTIVATION.
There Should Be No Waste Land do
Canadian Towns This Spring.
The Port Arthur Garden Club, which
was organized last year by the City
Council, is to,J.le congratulated on the
splendid success of its first season's
eftcits. According to a report of the
President of the local Board of Trade
the products of the -gardens amounted
,in value to $26,527; surely a record in
Vacant lot cultivation worth aiming
for in every municipality. During
Last year Canada saw the possibilities
of vacant lot cultivation. Many thpu-
sands of lots throughout the urban
centres were turned into vegetable
gardens, and hundreds of thousands of
dollars' worth of produce taken from
them, says the Canadian Municipal
Journal. But die does not nearly re-
present what can be done in vacant lot
cultivation if taken up seriously and
systematically. Within the boundar-
ies of every urban municipality in
Canada are thousands of vacant lots
waiting' -Tor cultivation this coming
season, and given the opportunity and
proper encouragement there is no rea-
son to doubt but what every cultivable
lot will be a means of food production.
But there must be a real co-operation
between the local garden lot societies
and the council -the council must bear
the expense of ploughing and, if ne-
cessary, find the seed, df not free, at a
low price.'"The citizens must be edu-
cated to do their part in actual culti-
vation. They must be made to see
that every hour given to attending
their lots is so much more food pro-
duced for the boys at the front.
One of the results of last year's cul.
tivatlon of vacant lotsns
w the lower-
ing of prices for garden produce. If
this garden cultivation is increased
twenty fold, or even ten fold, a much
better guarantee will'` be given, not
only in the keeping down of prices of
vegetables, but of all perishable foods.
The following Is from a letter of Lieut.
Wingfield, a British ,Flying Officer,
'wee escaped In November, 1917:
"The camp was c ba.d one, the rooms
over -crowded, there was lalsufclent
room for exercise, the sanitation was
very indifferent, the food almost inn
passible to eat, We were housed in
wooden barracks divided into rooms
by thin wooden partitions. There
were seven hi a room, so that it was
extremely difficult to obtain the neces-
sary quiet for work, There were no
reading rooms. The food was ex-
tremely poor and insufficient and con-
sisted almost entirely of stewed man-
gel-wurzeis, with occasional potatoes
of very poor quality, The bread ration
was half a loaf a week of very bitter
black bread._ You can imagine, then,
that prloners are entirely dependent
on pa cels, end are extremely hun-
gry during the first two months of
captivity before these begin to arlive,
The Roumanian officers get nettling,

What girl Or woman hasn't heard of
lemon" juice to remove complexion
blemishes; to whiten the skin and to
bring out the rases, the freshness and
the hidden beauty? But lemon jui'ee
alone is acid, therefore irritating, and
should be mfxed with orchard white
this way. Strain through a fine cloth
the juice of two fresh lamtina into a
bottle containing about three ounces
of orchard white, then shake well and
you have a whole quarter pint of skin
and complexion lotion at about the
cost one usually pays fqr a small jar
of ordinary cold cream. Be sure to
etrain the lemon juice so no pulp gets
into the battle, then this lotion w111

When applied daily to the face, neck,

the skin.
Any druggist will supply three

cost and the grocer has the lemons.
RAILWAYS COe6PERATE
It may be of general interest to the
Canadian public to know some ex-
amples of the way in which their
railways, through the Canadian Paci-
fic Aseoeiation for National Defence,
are exchanging traffic in the interests
of eiflcdency. •
In one case the C.P.R. diverted by
way of the Soo Line one thousand
cats of freight so as to relieve the
main line of th+e company
along o g tho
north shore of 'Lake Superior. These
cars passed south from 'Winnipeg to
Minneapolis and by way of. Sault Ste.
Marie into Ontario, They consisted
chiefly of grain for domestic consulnp-
tian in Canada.
One hundred cars of freight per day
are being diverted from the C.P.R. at
Quebec and travelling by way of the
National Transcontinental to Halifax.
While there is no saving in mileage,
this, in the interest of the country,
relieves the C.P.R. main line to _St,
John for classes of export freight more
urgently required there.
In Toronto an arrangement was suc-
cessfully carried out whereby ono
hundred and twenty cars of freight
eastbound for Montreal were turned
over train the C.P.U. to the C.N.R.
every day.
The Grand Trunk during the winter
season bas been diverting one hundred'
and fifty to two hundred care of coal
per day to the C.P.R, and T.H. & 13,
in order to lessen the oa�-igestion on
the Grand Trunk front the Niagara
frontier to Toronto and ober points,
The Grand Trunk has also diverted

work is slack. The trees require
no spraying, pruning, fertilizing or

I wish there was a WALKER HOUSE
In every little town;
Then I could travel merrily,
And always sitime down
At night in peace and comfort,
Happier than king with crown,
If there was just one Walker House
In every little town.
I wish there was a WALKER HOUSE
In each place where I go.
The comforts of my dear old home
While on the road I'd know.
The meals -the Cheerful Service, too,
Would leave no cause to frown,
If there was just one Walker House
In every little town.
