wink his eye against the expected shock writes e e free in popular science monthly some months ago a workman fell out of the fifteenth floor of a build ing in course of construction in new- york city on the thirteenth floor lie grabbed a rope hanging from a scaffold and swung himself in on the twelfth floor saving his life he aftei wards confessed tiat he was as much astonished by ms act as any one who saw him the explanation is that the fall of twentyfive feet before ho grabbed the rope occupied about one second and a quarter which was time enough for his thinking ranch inery to issue the orders which made his muscles take hold of the rope be low at the proper instant had he been placed in equal danger while driving mi automobile at sixty miles an hour he would have been killed tests

in that time a car travelling forty miles an hour would move thirty feet that distance represents the minimum margin of safety the driver must maintain to avoid accident as speeds increase no remedy

lluwltt the weed uieuance in ontario has markedly increased during the past few years it is not an exagger ation to say that in certain parts of the province weeds like the perennial sow thistle are driving men off their farms the tax levied by weeds on the agriculture of the province has been mounting yearly one of the chief reasons why the weed uieuance has increased with cavh suceedlng year is the undeni able fact that in the past vast quant ities of weeds have been allowed to ripen seeds on roadsides in school yards on waste and vacant lands along our lanes and headlands and lu our fence corners and odd spots here and there on the farm the following are the number of seeds produced by single or yellow dock- 17000 common ragweed 5000 chicory 3000 perennial sow thistle 2000 wild lettuce 8- 000 stinkweed 20000 every weed that is allowed to mature pro duce at least 1000 seeds and most of them ripen several thousand seeds in the pust weeds by millions have been allowed to mature in this province and scatter their billions of seeds far and wide is it any won der that the weed menace has in creased in ontario are we going to tolerate this state of affairs any longer in ontario no the farmers of the province have raised voices in protest an act has been passed by the legislature to enable them to meet the situation united action is what is required now every municipalityevery farm er every land owner in town or country must unite in the wiar against weeds and see that they are cut early and often enough to prev ent them from seeding when the weed inspectors send out notice that it is time to cut weeds let no one lag lieliiml or neglect his duty promptness is necessary to i revent all weeds from seeding many weeds if cut after they have passed full bloom will mature their seeds in order therefore to secure the great est results from the time and labour expended everyone concerned should see that weeds are cut just as soon as possible after the inspector gives notice protruding mail boxes in driving along a rural road one is struck by the number of mall boxes with long protruding arms which in some cases are actually overhanging the line of traftie ex tremely dangerous we would say and the wonder is that accidents have not already been reported the new style boxes being issued are fastened to the post without any arms and are a decided improve ment but why not convert the old originals by sawing off those dan gerous looking arms that are con stantly swinging out into the road way we venture the opinion that if an accident should result at any time from a carelessly erected or protruding box the owner of the same would be considered respons ible weekly newspaper publishers to sleet at london ontario see hero if you have a friend at a dlartanco you
