Every Housewife Should Have A
"Universal" Food Chopper.
It will chop all kinds of meat, raw or cooked, and all kinds
of fruit and vegetables, into clean-cut, uniform pieces, fine or coarse,
as wanted, without mashing, and with great rapidity. It does away
with the chopping knife and bowl entirely, doing its work in one-
tenth the time, and producing an absolutely uniform product. For
cutting sausage meat it cannot be surpassed. Sold by

The Toronto New considers that ;-
"Especially should Ontario realize
that drunkenness is a disease, and
adorn the harsh, and forbidding face
of her prison system with some smile
of hope for unfortunates who are pow-
erless to rescue themselves. from the
grip of the liquor habit."

-An idea of the extent of the
velopment of the Niagara fruit in-
dustry was given by Robt. Thompson,
secretary of the St. Catharines Co -
Operative Oold Storage Company,
through which a number of local fruit
growers ship their fruit. During the
past season 2,000 tons of fruit were
shipped through this company, and
the freight paid on same was
$21,040,
-Last Christmas was "dry" in Chat-
tanooga, Tenn. enn, V
oluntaril
y, and
without the compulsion of any Iaw,
the hotelkeepers of that city met and
decided to close their bars on Christ-
mas day and refuse to sell a 'drink.
Not that they were of opinion, that
booze is out of place in the United
States of America on the great holi-
day ; but because they were aware
that the sale of liquor on that day
would probably lead to trouble, the
black man of the neighborhood having
but little control over his appetite.

--An influential gathering met on
Thursday Iast, at the Y.M.C.A. Build-
ing, Toronto, and organized the Moral
and Social Reform Council of Canada,
established for the promotion of all
moral and social reforms approved by
the various bodies united in the work.
These bodies, which were ably repre-
sented, are :-The Church of England
in Canada, the Presbyterian, the
Methodist, the Baptist and the Con-
gregational churches, the Lord's Day
Alliance, the Dominion Temperance
Alliance, the Trades and 'Labor Con-
gress, and the Dominion Grange and
Farmers' Association.

CAPITA), EXPENDITURE.
(Weekly Sun.)
4,he long since worn-out plan is re-
sorted to of charging to capital ac-
count, part of the regnlar expenditure
of the year as a means of blinding peo-
ple to the enormous proportions of
total. if capital expenditure means
anything it means an outlay such as
is involved by a farmer in building a
barn or buying an additional farm-
something altogether outside t.bo or-
dinary outgo of the year. In the case
of the Dominion Government it is a
convenient means of arbitrarily divid-
ing the expenditure into two parts in
figuring out a large paper surplus. To
show that this is the case, it is neces-
sary merely to refer to a few of the
items charged to capital in the .esti-
mates for the coming fiscal year. To
provide for an electric lighting plant,
a large part of which will be obsolete
inside of ten years, fifty thousand dol-
lars is charged to capital; a steam
road roller and crusher, such as a
township council would pay for out of
the year's taxes is charged in the same
way ; air -brakes for freight cars, the
life of which may not exceed five
years, are got 'rid of in like manner ;
and the same convenient method is
adopted of disposing of au appropria-
tion for side ladders on box cars. A
farmer might as well place a mortgage
on his farm to meet the cost of erect-
ing a ladder by the side of his house
as a means of fire protection.
The estimates do not contain any
appropriation for the payment of iron
and steel bounties, because these are
payable under statute: Neither do
they contain railway subsidies which
aro voted in another form. These
thins as as the supplementary
things, wellPp Y
estimates, are still to be provided for.
What the grand total will be can only
be conjectured. Mark Twain once
said that all Englishmen had become
bow-legged from looking up at the
towering proportions of their national
debt. Canadians are likely to become
both bow-legged and round-shouldered
as a result of the burden which is be-
ing'piled on at Ottawa.

-On December lath, a portion of
the Arnericarl fleet left Hampton
Roads, Virginia, on its long tour to
the Pacific coast. This fleet consists
of sixteen battleships commanded by
Admiral nob Evans. Pet•hape very
few ordinary people could give any
reason for the cruise and the vast ex-
penditure of money required for it.
It is well, however, to know that the
fleet is not sent out for warlike par-
pos3s, and its heavy armament is not
likely to deal destruction to cities, or
death to individuals. Its mission is
probably a display of strength, and a
silent intimation to Japan, as to what
Uncle Sam could do if he got mad,
and really wanted to make a nc,ise on
the Pacific coast, While it may ap-
pear to be a great waste of money, the
ships may as well take a holiday
cruise, and burn up a few thousand
tons of coal, as rusting nut in the At-
lantic, where they really have nothing
to do. Even a horse needs exercise,
and a fleet is en eapettsive ornament,
If you don't let people see you have a
y p p y
big ornament, what good is it, any.

There has been a change of proprie-

0. W. Brown selling out to Mr. A. L.
Strome of Berlin who took possession
on Saturday last. The new proprietor
has been on the staff of the Walper
House, Berlin, for the past fourteen
years, the last five as clerk.
Mr. Charles Calton has bought the
Mahaffy farm on the 2nd con. of Stan-
ley, the purchase price being $5,500.
He gets possession in March. Charlie
is an exceedingly industrious young
man, one of the kind that deserves to
succeed. ror the past twelve years he
has been in the employ of Mr. Carter
near Alma.
Friday evening last, about fifteen
minutes after six, fire was discovered
in the basement of Down's tailor shop,
and an alarm was sounded. The en-
gine soon succeeded in putting out
the fire before it had done very much
damage • although h the other premises
in the block suffered more or less from
smoke and water. Mr, Downs' stock
was also much injured.
Dr. Chisholm, M. P., takes a lively
interest in all that affects the welfare
of the farming community. He has
sent the Advance the following from
Ottawa. It should prove of interest
to all concerned :-
Every fanner should have a small
refrigerator in his kitchen. He should
also have an ice -house milkstand and
an ice -house. dairy. The present ice
harvest is the first step towards mak-
ing the perishable produce business of
1008 a success. Do not neglect it 1 It
was cheese made from milk cooled to
50 degrees immediately after milking,
that took all the prizes at the Toronto
Exhibition 1907. It requires from 13
to 2 tons of ice per cow for factory
season.
MARKET VALUE OF ICE.
Ice has a quoted value in the mar-
kets of the world. The average price
for Norwegian ice shipped into the
United Kingdom, June 1907, was 95.
7d. or $2.30 per ton at the ship's rail.
In Berlin a cwt. of ice sells for 9d. or
18 cents, that is $3.60 per ton. The
average price for ice harvested on the
Hudson River, U. S. A., when deliv-
ered at the Bridge, New York City, is
$2 per ton. The Canadian railways
charge shippers $2.50 per ton for ice.
New Zealand ice (artificial) is sold for
$12 per ton.
' COST OF HARVESTING ICE.
Ice has been harvested for 6 cents
per ton. It costs companies on the
American side of the Detroit River,
around 15 cents per ton to harvest ice.
At Chatham from the River Thames,
at St. Catharines from the Welland
Canal, at Brockville and Cornwall
from the St. Lawrence River, ice is
harvested at about 25 cents per ton.
No accurate figures can be given as to
cost delivered at the ice -house where
the ice -house is distant from the ice -
field, as local conditions aro different
in every instance.
TIME To HARVEST ICE.
Ice should be harvested when it is
of the proper thickness. Ice of the
thickness of 15 inches handles well
and cuts up economically. The latter
part of the month of December, the
whole of the month of January, and
the first part of the month of.Febru-
ary, cover the ire harvesting period in
Canada.
QUALITY OF ICE AND SANITARY
HOUSING.
The proper selection, and the care
of the field prior to harvesting, are
both essential for securing a geed
quality of ice and an economical cut.
As the ice is to be used in refrigera-
tors and the dairy, great care should
be exercised to see that the ice -house,
the harvesting, and everything con-
nected with the harvesting, are per-
fectly Sanitary.
Corn STORAGE ACT OF 1906.
The Cold Storage Act of 1006 pro-
vides a grant of 30 per cent, of the
amount expended on may Mechanical
Cold Storage building. This shall bo

Cent. on completion of building, 7%
the first year thereafter, 4% the second
year, and at the end of the next two
years 2%.
For farther particulars or any fur-
ther inforrnation required, write Dr.

be pleased to answer all inquiries.

On Thursday evening last, three
sleigh loads of Oddfellows went down
to tho P..ouse of Refuge to entertain
the inmates and at the same time play
the part of Santa Claus. The inmates
were expecting them, and were all
gathered in the large dining hall,
which they had spent considerable
time in decorating. It is safe to say
that it is a long time since the inmates
had so much fun and enjoyment as
they had for a couple of hours on this
occasion.
