No doubt decaying root /i- bis* pan an important part in the drainage tof such soils. Often :10lien heasty .solls are ridged up they break doWn qalckly through the action of frost, and the whole mass of weathered parti- cles hold the water much more in the spring than when the ground.ls left un- disturbed. This condition of affairs will often be noticed in the ease of stubblea that are to be plowed, or in gardenit will be seen -where cabbage, or groUnd from which winter greens have been removed and digging post- poned tintg just before seeding. • The former who works his. stiff soil In the fall in order that he may give it the'sfullest exposure possible, is backed Up by science. When the soil Mois- ture is converted into ice • It expands, and as a result pushes the soil Partices further apart. When the thaw comes o,ir penetrates betweenthe cavity freely, wind a dry out the moisture, more air enters, and thus e,xpanalon and ,contraction continually going on leaves the soil in spring (after it has dried on the surface) in that pul- verized -condition that delights the cul- tivator. Atmospheric oxygen and car - Ignite aeld have also great disintegratieg effeet Upon soil, hence It follows that the .greater amount of surface expesed to the abeve Influences tb.e more theY ' will beeonie pulverized, Soil thrown pp roughly has a greater amount of sur- face per yard exposed than one left un - dug: In opposition to this, some farmer.; claim that in the cafe of some BOPP soils, if a portion is dug In the fallando.nother • left until the spring, the latter on a given date (at sowing or planting time) Will turn up comparattvely dry and will be ready for the reception. of .seeds, ear - bier than •that dug in the fall. However, there is very little argument in the con- tention, even in the few instances , in which soil conditions do prevail, becaute although the ndug soil may be <hie's., it cannot be broken down so finely as that which has been exposed, and if cli'y weather sets ir soon after, is hard and lumpy Or a long time, and consequent- ly quite unfavorable to the vigorous de- velopment of young crepe. Land dug In fall may be a week later beofre drying sufficiently to work for the reeeption of seeds, but when it is ready there is a splendid condition of tlth, with a. fine scrumbly surface in *which young seedlings will grow quick- ly. The farmer who digsqn fall Is grad- ually linproving the texture Of his soil by chemical and phyaleal action, as well as by the addition .of opening material. On •the other hand, the man who MO in spring, must depend upon the latter niethed solely, and therefore requires to add a greater bulk of such thaterials. arid also needs more time to improve his soil. . APPLYING MANURE TO STIFF The use of manure containing a good amount of straw in a fresh or a partial- ly decayed condition is generally recom- nunided for stiff sdils„ and in the major- ity of gardens old potting sone. burnt refuse and lime are usually at hand in gebnoiderable quantities. These, too, are Valuable. In helping to secure porosity, AB well as supplying plant . food. In Margot -gardens road scraping:a are of- ten' largely used for 'Want of better ma- terials. When menu° cannot be obtained In usaritity, lime and soot are also valuable agents In bringing about 6011 ameliora- tion, as well as for supplying plant food, and /erne cultivators plate reat faith art a dressing of soot in spring as an lad to the production of a crusrilaing sur - rave, taking into its OOnfiLbratiOn Its insecticidal value. The ancient practiee of burning' a few inchee of atilt moll in Order to get it Into geed werklnr condition is not often followed now, probably en acootint Of the mental entailed, and it.

Tho man who leeks patience can never wot•k a stiff soil suceesefullY, because hnpatience drives Wn to go on the land too early in spring, just because the light land men are ahead with their work. APPLYING LIME TO CLAY SOILS. Clay soils are retentive or moisture. If worked when too wet they bake, be, becoming hard and lumpy and difficult to mellow down. They are calledcold soils. They are made up of much finer particles than aandy soils and have the power of retaining pratically all the fertilizera applied to therm They gener- ally require draining. Often they are sop compact as to be extremely difficult to work. In weft weather they are too &itchy to work. and after periods of drouth they are frequently so hard that It is difficult to keep a blow in them, and they turn up lumpy. In the improvement of clay soils, the 'Farmer's Cyclopedia says, drainage, either natural or artificial, is one of the firOt essentials. Lime, which has a dind- ing effect on sand, has a, loosening ef- tect on clay, and Its .use tends to make clay soil 'more mellow and triable and reduces its tendency to puddle. EYea a small amount of lime has a marlseci effeet. Tke adidtion of humus to clay also makes it more open, and porous, and honee easier to work and. mere •pro- ductive of erops. Clay soils are usually more productive than sandy soils and bear heavier later crops. Manures applied to them are not leached out, and they are generally well supplied with potash.

Nine -tenths •of the ailments which afflict little ones are caused by derangements of the Vowels and stom- ach. No other medicine can equal Baby's Own Tablete in guarding eith- er the baby or growing child from the ills that follow a disordered condition of the bowels or stomach. They are a mild but thorough laxative and nev- er fall to give results. Corncerning them Mrs. W. B. Coolledge, Sarnia, Ont., says: "rhave used Baby's Own Tablets for over thre years and have found them the best medicine I have ever used for my children. I never have any trouble giving them to hay little ones and they have saved me many a doctor's bill. My advice to all mothera of little ones is to keep a box of the Tablets in the houee." The Tablets are sold by all medicine dealers or by mail at 25 cents a box from The Dr. 'Williams' Medicine Co., Brockville, Ont. USE OF THE RAT. Had Its Part in World Ages Ago. ,1-•• One of the zoologesae details con- nected with the rat is its ,failure to sustain any discoverable relation tvith the balance of nature. The balance of nature seems reraarkably even all over the world, aor no kind of life Can become whielly extinct without affect- ing prejudicially the general environ- j went. The rat seems the solitary exception to the general exparleace that Inter- terference with the fauna of an envir- onment Invites disaster through an upset of the balance of nature, gave a writer in Current Opinion.

The ro- dent has achieved its tack, performed its duty. The work was accomplished In past centuries, probably in Asia. Rats Will attack very large organisms. Even the elephant is not respected. It is widely known that certain varieties of Asiatic elephants have a great dread of rats. Cases are reported in which a huge elephant has succumbed to wounds made in its feet by ,.rats. The rats gnaw the hoofs of bersee when it can get at them. It would exterminate the jpig if it could find a neutral in man, En brief, all the evidenee suggeste that there has raged ia the past a great warfare between the rat and certain gigantic forms cif life. The brown rat seems to have.had much to do with the extinction of certain great beasts in Asia, Perhapsthe masto- don was routed by the rat, In any event, the rat may have played a glor- ious part in elim.inating the bulky monsterg that in time peat kept man down numerically just as to -day the robin plays a glorious part in elimin- ating from the soil the pests that oth- erwise would keep the cops down. The very voracity of the rat must have been of great zoological im part- ance when It had to attack, perhaps., a herd of mastodons. The rats travel- ed, then, evidently in swarms. The swam, rivers in seearms. Notittng could stand the ,or withstand thesu. Hav- ing eaten up everything that could nOt run or fly or fight back, the rat turn- ed to Europe and had to satisfy itself with new habits and different ifoods; Its connection with the balance of na- ture was destroyed and it is to -day a meaningless survival with noihing bat a somewhat doubtful elaira to a char- acteristic flea. ger Blouse News.

Bit of Finnish History. Finland, 'which has desiared its in- dependenee from Ruesia, has long been a buffer state between the latter and Sweden. After Peter the Great conquered Fhiland in 1721 and annex- ed its easternmost province, Viborg. Sweden • made repeated but unsuccessfu efforts to regal a this province.Finably Alexander L, Isi 1809, brought all the Finnish territory under the afuscovite yake. Since about 1890, however, Pin- ta -Al liberties have been greatly cur- tailed. • The powers of the Finnish diet were canceled and its constitution practically abrogated. In 1903 a Rus- sian distator was appointed and the country flooded with •Russian spies; arbitrary arrests and banishments became daily occurrences; to means of RUssifleat1011 was left untried.

FAITH AND ORDER Bulletin No. 21 On the World Conference. After nearly nate years of effort, the World Conference on Faith and Order is practically an accomplishee fact, though very much remains to be done in making the detailed arrange- ments. That will require much time, for it evolves correspondence with nearly a hundred commiesiOns scat— tered all over the world. But appar- ently all the invitations necessary, and at present possible, have been or aro been issued, and the acceptances have been so lar universal that it will pro- bably be thought that immediate steps can now be taken to convene the con- ference or, at least, to consider where and when it can be convened. When the deputation of the Ameri- can Episcopal Church sailed to invite the churches of Europe and the Near East, it had behind it the approval of the whole Anglican communion throughout the world, of almost every important Protestant communion outside the Continent of Europe, the ainoffielal, but weighty assurances of ,the Patriarch and many influential members of the Cb,urch of Russia, and the active and cordial sympathy of eminent representatives of the Holy Orthodox Eastern churches in Greece and elsewhere, of many distinguished Roman Catholics all over the world and of leading Protestants on the Continent of Europe. Fortified by such support, tae deputation has been cordially received everywhere. In London they met the Archbishop of Cyprus, and in Paris, the Acting Patriarch of Conatantinople, each of whom promised to call a special ses- sion of his Synod to consider the of- ficial invitation and gave assurances FACE ,WASiFULLi OF.
