Conserve the Forest, Canada‘s es > Second Greatest Resource Mflll[RN uunts SEEKINB It is that many Canaâ€" dian bank presidents and financial leaders in their annual reports on the business of the year 1926 laid stress on two things; (1) the importance of our forest industries to our domestic and export trade and, (2) the need for prompt and vigorous action to ensure that this great resource be not destroyed by forest fires, was, in the memory of those still living, when the inhabitants of some Canadian cities were delighted when a pall of wood smoke swept over the district in early spring, for they said ‘‘That smoke is from ‘slash‘ fires; there must have been much logâ€" ging last winter; our river and harâ€" bour will soon be full of logs and busiâ€" ness will beâ€"brisk.‘‘ If they thought giIng IASt OULF LiIVCL (diil, Hlâ€" bour will soon be full of logs and busiâ€" ness will bebrisk.‘‘ If they thought about other consequences at all they considered that the ‘slash‘ fires would clear the land for farmers, and that if logs ever did fail there would be bargeâ€"loads and wagonâ€"loads of wheat to take their place. But the succeeding generation has learned that much of this land, though ‘apable of producing trees was not fitted to grow wheat and other farm crops, and that these repeated fires destroyed not only the young growth, the hope of the forest but, in some cases, even the very soil itself. And people are getting over the idea that it is a slur upon Canada to say that much of our land will noet grow anyâ€" thing but trees, when these trees can Informed and Alert Public Opinion Necessary.

The satisfactory thing about Canada‘s timber situation is that, if Canadians will cultivate their forests instead of mining them, they will not only keep up in perpetuâ€" ity the production of timber at the present rate but will even be able to increase the annual cut without enâ€" croaching on the forest capital. Our financial leaders stress the point that the forest is our second greatest natural resource in point of national income. And, on the adminâ€" istrative side, it has been shown that Canada has so handled her forest lands under a system of leases that over 90 per cent are still owned by the Crown, that is by the people, and that from these forests the Dominion and Provincial Governments draw reâ€" venties totalling over $14,000,000 per year. That, in many respects, is a happy position and many states and nations cast envious eyes upon Canaâ€" da‘s good fortune and good adminisâ€" tration. The point made by our finâ€" ancial leaders is not that Canadians are sinners exceedingly above all other people in wasting their forest heritage but that with the experience of older nations to draw from and with the great opportunitiee of the twentieth century before them they are apparently in danger of allowing their forests to be reduced to the miniâ€" mum by fire and wasteful cutting beâ€" fore they start to grow them up again. Planting forests is good but a system of so cutting and protecting existing forests that they will bring forth inâ€" creasing crops, is better. The forefathers of the present genâ€" eration of Canadiansâ€"legislators, adâ€" ministrators, lumbermenâ€"didâ€". well, very well considering that they workâ€" ed without maps, surveys, or timber estimates, and could not possibly foreâ€" see the tremendous demand for forest products that new needs and new inâ€" ventions would bring, but if the presâ€" ent generation is not to be recreant to ita great trust it must build on the foundation they laid. They in A large measure saved the forests for usâ€"remember the people of Canada still own 90 per cent. of the forest landâ€"and we must save them for our successors, and for ourselves.

Houses are nowâ€" erected with thought to all possible Features, outâ€" side and in. They are put up to withâ€" stand the weather; to offer protection against flying firebrands; to keep out the cold and to keep the heat in; to prevent the family coal pile dwindling so rapidly. _ Architects and builders who build structures of this sort find that there is a much more ready sale for their houses. It simply means that people are coming to look for higher grade construction. A. certain type of residence now eaining in popularity is commonly known as the ‘tripleâ€"insulated house.‘ A recent addition in the suburb of Philadelphia has 32 of these tripleâ€" insulated houses wheh, as the name indicates, are insulated in three ways. The walls are insulated against heat and cold; the roof against rustâ€" comâ€" municated fires; the heating pipes against waste of fuel. A review of architects‘ plans for the new homes of 1927 shows that the old, rambling type of house which wasted room, money, fuel, light and beauty are now rarely Eleteriâ€" city, modern plumbing, floorâ€"planning and roofing are numbered among the major features which would make (irand Pop and Grand Mom green with envy toâ€"day. In view of the special interest held by asbestos in this country, because of the climate and because of the asbestos deposits in the district, there should be particular attention to the following contributed article :â€" Houses Now Have Many Features Unknown Fifty Years Ago. How is this insulation accomplishâ€" ed? By using two of the best insuâ€" lating materials knownâ€"ecattle hair and rock. Or in other words, a felted hair material known as Housline and Asbestos (which is rock). The outside walls of a tripleâ€"insuâ€" lated house have, between the sheathâ€" ing and clapboards, a shingle or stucâ€" co outside walls, a layer of this Housâ€" line.. Cattle hair, according to recent tests made by the United States Burâ€" eau of Standards, is the most effectâ€" ive insulator against heat and known to man. The manufacturers of Houslineâ€"Johnsâ€"Manville Corporâ€" ation of New Yorkâ€"in preparing the product cleanse the cattle hair chemiâ€" cally, make it verminâ€"proof and odorâ€" less and stitch it between a layer of building and a waterproof sheet. In this form, when placed in the walls (or under the shingles of the roof), it provides an effective barâ€" rier not only against the cold of winâ€" ter, but the heat of summer. The definite result of such insulaâ€" tion in the walls of a house (besides the additional comfort obtained) is %} SEF_JE%E%%Sfi%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%Sfi%%%%5%%%%%5%fi%fi%fi%fi% | 45 : DO NOT HESITATE #4 # Cad + *4 # 44 *# Cad 6 o ** 4. 5 #4 *, o «* veusug C298 °44.# 5o at6, uc in ns ns ns t eet aatacst es as +4 y h908 4*, 4* s ooooooooooooouoouoonoouobnoouoouoonoonoonxuooooooooooooooooo0000000000000000000000000000000 eÂ¥ s‘ °+ # # w _ OM.

TRINKS PRESANTS MUST BF FED IN WINTHR TIME Will Thrive in This Country All Right but Cannot Live on Buds in Winter Like Partridge Do In making refrerence to the report in The Advance a couple of weeks ago relative to the plan of the Poreupine Rod and Gun Club to establish Engâ€" lish pheasants as game birds in this district, The New Iiskeard Speaker last week says :â€"â€" "*The Advance was justified in sayâ€" ing *‘pheasants thrived well in the Liskeard distict,"‘‘ from the informaâ€" tion obtainable when The Speaker reâ€" ferred to Miss Raymond‘s luck in hatching eleven from a setting of thirteen eggs. And really the birds did thrive for a time, but later the flock grew smaller and smaller until the last one disappeared. _ If two owls which were finally killed while killâ€" ing hens, had been killed sooner, it might be that the pheasants would now be"thriving. ©Mrs. Chester hatched but two out of a setting, a cock and hen. In the late fall the hen disappeared, but the cock, roosting in a grove every night, but feeding every day in the barnyard, has grown to ‘be a fine bird He is about two feet or more in length, and the plumage is beautiful beyond desâ€" cription. _ This ‘bird,lords it over the roosters, and is very friendly toward the hens. Every evening he sails away to his roost in a thicket, and every morning at six o‘clock he sails back, and when he is passing the «/ 2 back, and when he is passing the dwelling house he invariably crows, squeals, or squawks. _ Mr. Chester cannot describle the peeular call ‘of the bird but is quite sure there is more jazz than melody in it. To our mind, the fact has keen established that the English pheasant can stand the coldest Temiskaming winter weather, but we do not think these pheasants can live in the bush on buds as the partridge does. If for Coughs, Colds, Bronchitis and all Lung troubie GUARANTEED, take no other, none just as good. At all Drug Stores THE COLOFIELD DRUG G0., LTD. Bridge or Social Function of any ervice bhone our Quick Service we are right then this bird will not become a game bird in Temiskaming as it is in British Columbia, but a doâ€" mestic bird having to be fed during the winter. But the pheasant can forage for itself until snow covers the eround in early winter.‘"‘ CALLED TO ENGLAND ON ACCOUNT OF FATHER‘S DEATH Te following despatch is from Coâ€" balt under date of April 12th:â€" B.
