At- tachments furnish the answer as ta why rugs and carpets have become merely two importantl items in a long list of reasons for a vacuum cleaners purchase. In a carpetless home, for instance, the homemaker uses the various attachments available with her cleaner ta keep waxed floors shining and tae dean upholstery, draperies, curtains and mattress- es. The homemaker dusts fur- niture and venetian blinds as weil as bakeboards, doors, walls and ceiling. She can keep moths at bay, spray insecticides or wax as well as paint-ail with variou% attachments o! the vacuum dlean- er. Some people own a wax-buffer attachment that makes a differ- ence ta polished floors and can be used by the husband for polishing the car. (Affachîpents o! any cleaner are a great help in dlean- ing upholsfery and floor of car). One gentleman has reported us- ing a cleaning affachmenf on basement furnace pipes-and an- other, on his hat. Today the selection of a vacuum cleaner is made according fa its weight the ease o! adjusfment for the attachmenfs, the storage room and lastly the maferial o! the rugs in the home. The types of vacuum cleaners are uprights with amofor-driven brush or agi- tators, a combinafion type, tank or cylinder type and bagless cleaners that collect the dirt in a wast.ebasket receptacle or in wa- ter. If may also be a precauf ion ta check on the trade-in value o! such equipment. If you can plug in the cleaner at the store or your home when a radio is operafing you can check on the noise o! the motor. In a home where rooms may require air circulation or collecting smoke fumes, the type which has this abiiity may be of great advantage. j' la De HOGARTH, CLIfRK. Hampton, November 3rd, 1950.

Statistics ne- veal that Canada's death rate fromn tuberculosis in 1949-30.4 per 100,000 of population-is the lowesf on record. The previous record was 37.0 per 100,000, es- fablished in 1948. In commenfing upon the situ- ation, the Canadian Tuberculosis Association bulletin states "it is intenesting f0 note thef we are catching up to some extent with the United States, in fact, we are now only one year behind them as fan as death rates are con- cerned. The U. S. figure for 1948 was 30 per 100,000, and their provisional rate for 1949 i.s 26.1 not very much lower then ours." In discussing the death rates in the varjous provinces, the Bulletin comments "the most sfniking feetune is the record low o! 15.6 estabiished by the Prov- ince o! Ontario. In 1948 Ontario dropped, for the first time, below the twenfies, but this mosf recent gain is even more spectacular, and would indicete thaf the meth- ods foliowed by this province in combatfing the disease are spe- cially efficient.?' Ontario is, however. by no means the on]y province f0 have made remarkable headway. The Bulletin points out that every province showed a reduc- tion. Prince Edward Island brought its death rate down to 23.4 a drop of 17 points from the 1948 figure. while Nova Scotia dropped frorn 38.9 to 28.5, New -c' How ta Construct Your Fa=m Trcuilers With the recent advent of the rubber-tired 1"trailer" on ,the farms of Canada, farm transpor- tation has been considerably sipaçded up. It was probably the growing popularity and araila- bility of the rubber-tired tractor that made the farmer go after a trailer to suit; one he was able to haul at speeds from 10 to 15 miles an hour. He wanted it for hauling produce to market and for use around the farm. The rubber-tired equipment puts less "drag" on the towing vehicle ai-d the racks can be made much low- er for ease in loading. It was the problem, of building racks to fit these new farm ve- hicles that had most farmers at a loss. The f arm, engineering ex- perts of the Canada Department of Agriculture came to their aid recently with a special publica- tion designed to give them ail necessary details on such con- struction. The publicatioui, "Farm Trailers, Wagons and Racks" by W. Kalbfleisch. J. M. Armstrong, D. J. Cooper and A. I. Magee, of the Agricultural Engineering staff may be obtained £rom. the Department of Agriculture on re- quest. The bulletin, which is fully illu- strated, gives the steps necessary to construct the particular kind of trailer required, and lists the material needed to do the job. A half ton trailer with removable side racks, for instance, can be mounted on the front-end axie and wheel assembly from. a light automobile. Commercial axies and wheels may also be used in the construction of light trailers and the unit can bel assembled with or without springs. On trail- ers without springs, low pressure tires are desirable to make the tradler ride more easily. For trailers o! greater capacity, mo- tor truck front axIes are recom- mended. Sometimes a low-slung wagon with ramps is required for load- ing equipment or supplies. Such a trailer can be made by sus.- pending the wagon box between a front and rear axIe and wheels., The assemblies from a i ½-2-ton Brunswick fnom 45.7 te 27.8, Que- bec 58.3 to 48.8, Manitoba from 37 to 28.9, Saskatchewan was ..3....... 91n 9 +- -)A 1)Â.

Heavy duty trailers can be used to great advantage on many farms, and for such work the trailer frame and platform should be sturdily constructed. In hauling operations on pub- lic roads and hig'hways ev'ery pre- caution should be taken to pre- vent accidents. AIl highway reg- ulations should be adhered to and the tractor and vehicle should be under compiete control et al tîmes. For instance, safety chains between tractor or automobile and trailer are compulsory ln many districts. Light tractors with heavily Ioaded trailers sol be operated at moderate - peeda- and in low gear going down hills. "It ls important" the author point out l'that brakes on tractors be locked together or applied evenly with caution when haul. ing a loaded wagon or trailer.'l There is a strength of quiet en- durance as, significant of cour- age as the mosct darlng feats of prowess.-Tuckerman.
