Urges Proper Seed Mixing Although more than a0 per cent of the plowable land in On- tario was under hay and pasture, farmers were not utilizing it to the utmost advantage, Prof. IR. G. Knox of the Ontario Agricul- tural College at Guelph declared in addressing the annual meeting of the Ontario Crop Improvement Association. SOURCE OF CHEAP FEED 'As a source of low-priced animal feed," he asserted, *pas- ture heads the list. and yet it is not being utilized to the extent it might be." He urged his lis- teners to mix the seeds of vari- ous plants in an effort to get the most from their pastures. "You can't expect a cow to walk all day over scrub pasture land<and fill a pail with milk at night," he declared. The use of better pagturage, he said, would 'net the' 'farmer more than if he continued to buy "mineral feeds" from the "scoun- drels" who travel from farm to farm Seti it at $12 a hundred- weight, y Dominion Has New Motor Vehicle Controller Berry has been up- John H. pointed motor vehicle controller for the Dominicn .of - Canada, with wide powers to control and regulate Canada's automotive in. dustry.

"Countess of Dufferin", First Locomotive to Reach Winnipeg The sixty years that have passed since the Canadian Pacific Rail- way Company was given a charter to build the transcontinental line, on February 15, 1881, have been featured by outstanding advances in every branch of railroading. ments more obvious than in locomotives, stacks and the toy-like appearance of the old wood-burners. In no way, however are these advance- Gone are the funnel smoke. ° The sleek, powerful locomotives of today have speeded up schedules, they pull longer trains, and they can travel many miles without shop attention, The most famous is the motive to reach Winnipeg.

Locomotive No. 84, seen above at Fernie, B.C., dates back to 1882, Its weight was 98,000 pounds and it had a tractive effort of 14,000 pounds, These are puny engines compared to the giants of today, the new 2800 series which weigh 366,000 pouds and have a tractive effort of 45,200 pounds and the new 5900 series, largest in the British Empire, which weigh 447,000 pounds and have a tractive effort of 78,000 pounds, At the end + of 1882 the company had 146 locomotives; now it owns 1,767. --C.P.R.

A newspaper reporter was in- vited to take his first aeroplane trip with a stunt flier for the movies, He was filled with for- bodings, which increased when a parachute was strapped on to him and he was given careful instructions regarding its use "The stunt man also wore a para- chute, and when he put a heavy leather coat on over it the re- porter asked timidly, "How can you use the parachute with that coat on?" "Oh," replied the pilot, non- chalantly, "I'd have plenty of time to take the ccat off 'when we fell." They went up and flew for several minutes, until, feeling warm, ~the 'stunt man began to remove his coat, "Hot, isn't it?" he sai, genially, but there was no reply. The -ve- porter had jumped overboard, See ; As they say on the Con- tinent, it's a wise child who knows his own Fatherland. -- The irate parent stormed up and down the room before the nervous looking young man, "What!" he shouted. "You have - the nerve to come to my office "to ask for my ughter's hand? I'might as well* you- that you could - have saved yourself the journey." : The suitor sighed wearily, "Well, that's all right,' he said, "You see, I had another message to deliver in the same buildings." --en * "Which side of an 'apple pie is the left side?"

PE ee EE at a aad HEALTH TOPICS Tender Teeth ar Teeth may be tender from cold, in which cases all the teeth are likely to be affected. In pregnancy and lactation the teeth often become tehder ahd affected with caries. The cause is the drain on calcium by the growing infant within the mo- ther's womb, 'The remedy is the administration of vitamin D, found plentifully in butter fat and cod-liver oil, A dertain number of teeth that have ached a little, settle' down, take oh a bluish colour and may be somewhat tender. These teeth are dead and are a menace to health, Their roots will often prove to be stinking. They spread infection to near and distant parts of the body causing ery- thema, arthritis and other infec- tions. 1 Must Extract Dead Teeth Cancer of the antrum or sar- coma of the bony margin of the jaw sometimes follows neglect of dead teeth, : Other resulting infections from dead teeth are: osteomyelitis and necrosis of the. jaws, cellulitis of | the neck and neuralgia of the third nerve. Many medical condi- tions of the body will cause. ten- derness of the teeth, such for ex- ample, as scurvy, anaemia and lukaemia. Syphilis, malaria,. dia- betes &nd tuberculosis have an ill- effect on the teeth, Hysteria, mi- graine and many other neuroses are often accentuated by tender teeth, Many acute illnesses and the recovery therefrom, are ac- HARNESS & COLLARS.
