Eastern Canada Grows Soybean New Variety Has Been De- veloped With Early Ma- turity, High Yield AXter seven jears of careful •tudy and selection by the Divl- â- Ion of Forage Plants, Central Ex- periaiental Farm. Ottawa, a soy- lean 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. This proKeny has just been licensed as a soybean variety un- der the name of Pagoda. Pagoda is as early in maturity as ManitO'ba Brown, has been found •uperior to this variety in plant type and yielding ability, and has yellow seed. Pagoda ripens at Ot- tawa In 100 to 103 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 Mandarin could not be expected to mature. A very henpecked husband reached the eml of his j)atience, anii, after a final row with lii.s wife took his bowler hat from (he peg and said: "I'm going." Three years later ho leturncd and his wife greeted him: "Where the dickens have 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 poisction of ttn Eskimo. How wondet-ftil it must be to turn in, say, in Cr'obcr, anJ !et the alarm foi: about April. The following was the verdict by an Iowa jury in a .suit against a railroad company: "If the train luid run as it «hould have run; if the bell had rung as it should have rung; if the whistle had blowed as it should have blew both of which it did neither, the cow would not have been injured when she was killed." "Mabel, you really ought to wear a hat when you go out in the evening." "But, mother, I am wearing • hat. It's on the other side." Fred was showing his sweet- heart the old family album, and pointed out a parliculnr photo- fmph of which ho was very proud. 11 ilepirtod him v^f, n small boy dressed in a pailor suit, sitting on his uncle's kneo. "There, what do you think of that one?" he said. '• "Very nice," his sweetheart •aid. "Hut who is the ventrilo- quist?" Tnc wise ((ue.stion is not, "Is Christ Divine?" but "What is (lod like?"â€" William Temple. n TORTURE \n A Miniila rw qutf» rtVitt from Ik* It-^hlnt of ffimm.

Snow of Salt T.ake City knows the horrible truth- â€" he has skunks in his basement. 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 excelient mousers and harmless except when annoyed. Snow's immediate concern is how to keep the furnace in coal until the animal.s get the spring wanderlust â€" 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 matui'c height and width of the llower or shrub or tree be kept in mind and suffKlent space be allowed. In every reputnblo seed cata- logue and in most special govern- ment bulletins there will bo found along with desciiptions of variou.s jdants the height when full grown. This can be used a.s a guide in the planning. Houglily, space between jilants should equal mature height. Thu.s a shrub like the ordinary white Spirea, which averages about G-7 feet in height in most part.s of Canada, i^iiould have (i-T feet between it and its neighbor anil be this far away from walks and almost as fur fi'om fence or wall. HOT BEDS When a large number of early 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 inche.'^ of (ino soil is placed and after the bod has heated up and then cooled down again (a matter of three or four days) the .'iccd is sown in rows a few inches apart. The bed is protectt'tl by rough boarding along the side and on lop tmil sloping toward the south about 10 to IS 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 whii'h is simply a hot bed without any heat- ing material. USE GOOD SEED It is impossible to ovcr-ompha- size the importance of good seed. Other factors are practically all beyond control hut the gardener ha.s 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. 01liniLDTBl< to aAMf y«M tfic (My ««(» < KEEP CLEAN iNSIDEl V..u'll i;iic l!io way It miaps > nil liM'k. ovPrnlKl"'.

Wreckers Razed Wrong Building --Vn embarrassed relief project wrecking crow set out for the sec- and time to raze a three-storey frame tenement in Brooklyn. A bank which owmed the building asked the city housing authority to. tear it down as paii; of a slum clearance program. A crew was dispatched. Later bank ofiicials called up lo inquire why the. build- ing had not been torn down as promised. Investigation disclosed the crew had rar.cd the building next door.

ANTIDOTE FOR .SILICOSIS Three Toronto doctors have re- ported definite advance in attack- ing silicosis â€" dreaded lung disease of miners â€" by using metallic alu- minum as a direct preventive an- tidote against deadly quartz par- ticle.? inhaled by miners in the cours? of their work. They have conducted extensive experiments at Toronto and in the Mclntyre Porcupine mines. REPAIR HUMAN BONES Use of animal bones as pegs, patches and fillings in human limb-monding operations arc 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 ho used a wal- rus tooth to fill a hole made near the head of a thigh bone by scrap- ing out diseased bone, usa 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 bono to fill a groove in an upper arm bone after an operation for disease. ENERGY TO RUN THE EARTH Recent advances in atom-sma.sh- 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 looms large beside the 1,400,000 kilowatt ca- pacity of Boulder Dam, which cost 1126,000,000 and will have a pow- er capacity of 1,890,000 kilowatts. 1939 Chick Shows Are V^ry Popular A great deal of interest has been aroused among poultry breeders throughout Ontario by the spring program now being car- risd out by the Hatchery Approval Association of Ontario which has sponsored four baby chick shows in the province since the begin- ning of this month.

PAPERS Rung Down Jack; Pie For Dinner Although Jack rabbits are quite uncommon in that section of the country. Jack Brinklow of Hast- ings, Ont., cha.s:d one in his car one night last week and eventually ran over it. The ne.\t day, the rabbit was served as a delicious morsel for dinner. Jack explained that he was mo- toring to Canipbellford, 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 aninial weighed eleven pounds and dressed a little better than six pounds.
