Eastern Canada Grows Soybean New Variety Has Been De- veioped With Early Ma- turity, High Yield After seven years of careful study and selection by the Divi - cion of Forage Plants, Central Ex- perimental Farm, Ottawa, a soy - 'bean progeny has been obtained which possesses in a marked de- gree the desired characteristics of early maturity, high yield, desir- able plant type, and yellow seed color. Tbis progeny has just been licensed as a soybean variety un - .der the name of Pagoda. Pagoda is as early in maturity as Manitoba Brown, has been found superior to this variety in plant type and yielding ability, and has yellow seed. Pagoda ripens at Ot- tawa in 100 to 105 days, as com- pared with 120 to 125 days for Mandarin. It is obvious, there- fore, that Pagoda is adapted to a much wider area than Mandarin and can be used in districts where n could not be expected to A very henpecked husband reached the end of his patience, and, after a final row with his wife took his bowler hat from the peg and said: "lin going." Three years Iater he :'eturned and his wife greeted him: "Where the dickens stave you been°" "Out," he replied, and hung his :hat on the same peg. An Arctic explorer records that he actually found an al- arm clock in the possesion of an Eskimo, How wonderful it ,Rust be to turn in, say, in October, and set the alarm for about April. The following was the verdict by an Iowa jury in a suit against a railroad company: "If the train had run as it should have run; if the bell had rung as it should have rung; if the Whistle had Vowed as it should have blew both of which it did neither, the cow would not have been injured when she was killed."

While firing the furnace he came onto two of them at too close range. He laid his problem before Biological Survey and re- ceived the comforting information skunks are excellent mousers and harmless except when annoyed. Snow's immediate concern is how to keep the furnace in coal until tIre animals get the spring wanderlust—if they do. Gardening ROOM ESSENTIAL Most common mistake made by the new gardener is that of crowding things too close togeth- er. In planning layouts it is es- sential that the mature height and width of sthe flower or shrub or .tree be sea* in hind and sufi'ieient space be allowed. In every reputable seed cata- logue and in most special govern- ment bulletins there will be found along with descriptions of various plants the height when full grown. This can be used as a guide in the planning. Roughly, space between plants should equal mature height. Thus a shrub like the ordinary white Spire a, which averages about 0-7 feet in height in most parts of Canada, should have 0-7 feet between it and its neighbor and be this far away from walks and almost as far from fenwe or wall. HOT BEDS When a large number of carry plants are needed, these can be started from seed in a hot bed. The latter consists of a bed of fresh horse manure, which sup- plies the heat, about 18 inches deep. On this two or three incites of fine soil is placed and after the bed has heated up and then cooled down again (a matter of three or four days) the seed is sown in ;rows a few inches apart. The bed is protected by rough boarding along the side and on top and sloping toward the south about 10 to 18 inches above the bed is plac- ed a window sash well glassed. When the plants have developed their second set of leaves they are thinned out and before being trans -planted outside they are hardened in a cold frame which is simply a hot bed without any heat- ing material. USE GOOD SEED It is impossible to over -empha- size the importance of good seed. Other factors are practically all beyond control but the gardener has absolute check over this foundation. Weather, soil and lo- cation may be ideal but without good seed, specially selected to suit Canadian conditions, the gar- den is going to be a failure, How Can 1?

Q.—How can I renew the metal: tops of salt and pepper shakers that have corroded? A.—Give them a coat of enam- el, allow it to dry thoroughly, then follow with a second coat, Wreckers Razed Wrong Buildin An embarrassed relief project wrecking crew set out for the sec - and time to raze a three-storey frame tenement in Brooklyn. A bank which owned the building asked the city housing authority to tear it down as part of a slum clearance program. A crew was dispatched. Later bank officials called up to inquire why the build- ing had not been torn down as promised. Investigation disclosed the crew had razed the building next door.

REPAIR HUMAN BONES Use of animal bones as pegs, patches and fillings in human limb -mending operations are de- scribed in The Lancet by Dr. E. W. Hey Groves, emeritus profes- sor of surgery at the University of Bristol, England. He explains how he used a' wal- rus tooth to fill a hole made near the head of a thigh bone by scrap- ing out diseased bone, use of a peg made of stag's antler to pin the head of a thigh bone to the shaft after it had been broken off, use of beef bone to fill a groove in an upper arm bone after an operation for disease. ENERGY' TO RUN THE EARTH Recent advances in atom -smash- ing have started scientists on a new and apparently narrowing hunt for the secret by which, they say, a few pounds of uranium may be made to run all the light, heat and power plants on earth. Dr. G. Hahn of Berlin is reported to have found an energy .of 200,000,- 000 volts in an exploding atom of uranium. If every atom in one gram could be exploded with a discharge of 200,000,000 volts it would produce energy amounting to 10,000,000 kilowatt hours. That much energy loons large beside the 1,400,000 kilowatt ea- pacity of Boulder Dam, which cost $126,000,000 and will have a pow- er capacity of 1,890,000 kilowatts. 1539 Chick Shows Are Very Popular A great deal of interest has been aroused among poultry breeders throughout Ontario by the spring program now being car - vied out by,the Hatchery Approval,,. `a Association of : Ontario :'which luta sponsored four baby chick shows in the province since the begin- ning of this month.

The next day, the rabbit was served as a delicious morsel for dinner. Jack explained that he was mo- toring to Campbellford, and about half way on his journey the rab- bit appeared in front of the car and kept running ahead of it. The. race kept up for a quarter mile at forty miles per hour, until the jack was run down. The animal weighed eleven pounds and dressed a little better than six pounds.
