The seed gatherers brought in 2,686 sacks of Douglas fir cones, 1,545 sacks of spruce, 187 sacks of cedar, 767 sacks of long needle pine and 27 sacks of hemlock cones. Collecting the cones is largely the summer work of women and children, but men agile enough to climb far out on thin limbs bring in the largest loads. .The cones are sacked in the forests and later gathered into piles for hauling out on trucks over the abandoned logging roads. In isolated sections where cones are abundant, the canoes of Indians are pressed into serâ€" vice. At the seed barns the cones are spread out on a drying flocr made of finely meshed wire netting some three feet above the board floor. As the drying proceeds the cones open, scatâ€" tering the seeds through the screen to the floor ‘below. After completely dryâ€" ing out the seeds are run through a fanning mill to get rid of pulp and the filmy tails used in nature to fly long distances.

This historical riddle, which has engaged the interest of geographical pundits for more than 1,000 years, is revived again in 1927 because of the extraordinary interest in transâ€"Atlanâ€" tic navigation engendered by the epic Lindbergh, Chamberlain, Byrd, Brock and Schlee flights.

In recent years the tradition of St. Brendan has been exhaustively studâ€" ied by Dr Jossph Dunn, o'ccupant of the chair of Gallic Literature and History at the Catholic University. In his publication "The Brendan Probâ€" lem", Dr. Dunn has reviewed a mass of literature and historical material concerning St. Brenan‘s voyages, He shows conclusively that there was such a person zs St. Brenan, the "sailorâ€"saint‘" who was born about the year 484. He lived for a time at the monastery Killeady and ethn read psalms with Bishop Eric. Doctor Dunn believes that Brenâ€" dan‘s was a marked development of marine life and navigation in thatr early time, due to teh influence of comâ€" munications with Rome, which theoâ€" retically, would have made transâ€"Atâ€" lantic journeys possible. But he disâ€" credits the reports of numerous writâ€" ers, including Washington Irving, that original manuscript records of Brenâ€" dan‘s voyages are still existant. Doctor Dunn ‘believes that Brenâ€" dan‘s first great sail was limited to islands off the west coast of Irel‘x‘nd, perhaps the Orkneys, Hebrires, or Faroes, that his second was amony the islands of the Altantic Archipelâ€" ago and that on a voyage to the Cape Verde Islands he might have been carried to either North or South Amâ€" erica.

In ‘ spite of the milk embargeo Canada‘s exports of milk and cream to the United States have been well above the average this year, accordâ€" ing to Washington figures. The total exports of milk and cream, chiefly the latter, show an increase of 34,000 gallons during the seven menths‘ period January to July. The exact figures, 1,096,798 gallons comâ€" pare favorably with 1,062,756 gallons in 51926 and 1,055,161 gallons in 1925. To handle the heavy prospective movement of grain this year the Canadian Pacific Railway have opened the Transcona yards at Winnipeg and the new double track between . Molson and Whittier Junction. Here emd There Atwccnaen o Advise Several Apple Pickings Uniformity of Color and Grade is Then Assured â€" Time Spent Picking More Than Saved Othâ€" er Ways. Many fruit growers have found th'el practice of making several pickings of the apple trees at harvest time al good one. At first this may seen ex-l rta work, as undowbtedly it will take more time to go over the trees two or three times in order to pick the crop, but the advantages are marked. Probably the chief or more imporâ€" tant of these advahta.g-es will be in the improved color of the crop, for . the color in a very large degree, aeâ€" termines its grade. This is especialâ€" ly true of red or partially red apples. Improved or high color often makes considerable differences in price. â€" The size will be greatly improved as well as; the color which will add ‘(l:onsid- erably to the total yield. Another factor is the lessening of windfalls and broken limbs, which in some years is quite important. If one picks 25 per cent. to 50 per cent. of the crop somewhat earlier than one would desâ€" ire to pick the entire crop, and only takes the best colored and larger apâ€" ples, it will result in lightening the load on the tree and enable the balâ€" ance of the crop to continue to grow and color for a longer period. \ Other Picrkings â€"The secend picking could then be John Clarke C.A.

RDâ€"22 made a few days later than where only one picking was made, and even a third picking wour¢ be desirable in some of the better quality red apples such as Wealthy, McIntosh, Fameuse and Northern Spy. These two or three pickings will result in a better grade of fruit. A number of growâ€" ers, who now pick in this way, claim that the saving in grading and packâ€" ing more than pays for the extra time reqired for picking. Further, as a result of improved color ana larger size of apples there is a direct advantage in the increased return from the crop. Such a practice genâ€" erally adopted would result in conâ€" siderable improvement of the apple grades; a lessening ur the number of low grade apples; a betterment of prices and a larger net return for the crop.
