A remark wa- has been serving us with the worst he \ made that about one finder in a hund- has given for over fifty years and : red would return the money. Th= suggestion was made that possib!> one person in a hundred would 1"^ mean and dishonest enough to keep it without trying to find the owner. The following news item which happenei to be published that day would more than bear out the latter contention: "Most men arc honest re.cardless ol circumstance":, said a woman in Wir- nipeg, after she recovered $40. It was lost in front of a hall in which 2,700 unentployed were eating breakfa.^t. One of the men found it, inquired among his fellows as to its owporship and when none claimed it. turned it in to the hall superintendent. Hs didn't cN^en bother to give him name.'

In that factory there are just Ad- j over one hur.dved employees busily ! engaged for ten hours a day, six day* 1 a week, in pro<.:ucing worsted yarn. Their output represents enough doth to make 700 suits of me.i's clothing every d»y. and stunt the growth. In the early stages of their development they travel through the blood stream to the la.-igs, are coughed up, then swal- lowed and pass to the intestines. In- fection with v-orms causes eosghing. pneumonia, or other lung congestion-s. which are fatal in many cases, ami the pigs which survive are apt to be stunted and prove unprofitable feed- ers. Pigs .heavily infested with worms become paunchy, have rough coats, may snuffle and run at the nose and eyes, and show signs of general un- thriftiness. The losses from worms are great enough to make it advisabit for the pig raiser to spend consider- able time and effort in avoiding thorn. Small pigs get the worm eggs from the udder of the sow or from the floor or walk of the pen, probably within a few days after birth. Pre- ventive measures will go a long way in eliminating the trouble, and cleanli- ness cannot be too strongi'y recom- mended. This should start at the time the sow is prepared for farrow- ing. At the Dominion Experimental Station, Lacombe. .\lberta, before the sows are put into their farrowing house, the house is thoroughly wash- ed with a strong hot lye solution (1 pound of lye to 30 gallons of water^ scrubbing the floors, troughs and walls well.

In the Jan- uary 21st issue of the Commercial Intelligence Journa: it is stated that the importation of cattle feeds, con- -ist!-g of bran and other flour mill- ing offal, from Canada is compara- tively new. beginning in 1931 when Canadian shipments rose from prac- newer varieties are compared with the old. It often is found that » high priced new variety is no better if as good, as some variety very much like it. -A great many new varieties of iris, for instance, have b-een in- troduced in recent yeras but only » few inscifi the pt'ice charged for them. The following iris, however. of â- ;vhi:h the price has now become retsorable. are among the distinct acquisitions and should be in every garden which has a collection of iris: Mount Eoya.'. True Charm, .\raber. Gay Hassar, Lady of June, Souvenir de Loetitia Michaud, Majestic, Zulu, Tropic Seas, Geo. J. Tribolet. Rhein- tochter, Mrs. Marion Cran. Imperator. Lord Lamboume. Valencia and Poris- sima. The prices .of peonies drop more slowly than those of iris and some of the gcod ones can scarcely be call- ed of newer introduction nevertheless a tew of the best double varieties test- ed a: the Experimental Farm which may be mentioned which have come down considerably in price in recent years are: LeCygne, Solange, Madame Ju-'es Dessert. Therese, Tourangelle, Walter Faxon. Sarah Bernhardt, Longfellow and Kelway's Glorious. Great advances have been made in Delphiniums in recent years. The most economical plan is to sow seed from the best named varieties and amorg the seedlings will usually be found some outstanding sorts. The perennial lupines are charm- •ically nil to 22JJ63 long tons (2.240 ] ing plants and there has been great SOS.). Of this amount 6,000 tor^ i improvement in them in recent years. were shorts and middlings and the re- mainder bran. .-V.-cording to this report Great Britain imports about 300.000 tons of these products annual- ly, chiefly from foreign countries Empire countries producing only somt 76,000 tons in 1932.
