VEGETABLE COMPOUND HEALTH EXERCISES j To Equalize Weight and Improve Digestion Right in the category with beauty aids that cost nothing is a particularly easy 10-do health exercise. It stimulates sluggish circulation, en-"?ourags3 the i'ver to do its work pr>-perly, thereby eliminating yellowish, sallow tones in the skin, and keeps the body supple. It won't make you lose many pounds, but, like swimming it will equalize your weight. When you get up in the morning, drink two full glasses of luke-warn; water. Then do this exercise. Sit on the floor with back straight and legs spread wide apart. Now without bending your knees, stretch forward as far as you can, making fingertips touch the floor beyond your feet. Hold the position three seconds and then sit upright again. Repeat ten times. Plain, simple bending exercises are good for circulation and they encourage the digestive organs to work efficiently too. Stand erect with the right arm stretched above your head. Then bend toward the left as far as you can keeping your head back. Reverse holding the left hand up and bending down toward the right. Do not repeat more than ten times the first day. He Hit a Hen That Had Right of Way M. Lebon, on his bicycle, was trying to pass a hen that was running along the road. It swerved under his front wheel, upset him. One of his arms was broken. A provincial court decided that M. Lebon, who sued the owner of the hen, was responsible for "having tried to pass a hen that was keeping on the correct side of the road." The case has now come up for appeal. r* a oardenmg By Gordon L. Smith DAIRY PRODUCTS IN CANADA H. M. Army and Navy Veteran's Mutual Benefit Society One result of the very promising financial report that was tendered the members of this time honoured organization at their recent annual meeting, was the indication that there was every possibility that another object of the body may be achieved in the course of the current year. The establishment of a veteran's home in Toronto, to be operated by this body. Little more than ten years ago it was felt by the then officers that the organization should have a band, this was achieved after great expenditure and brought to a state of such perfection, that before long, and for the past many years the band of His Majesty's Army and Navy Veterans has led the annual Warriors Day Parade on the opening of the C.N.E. This section of the organization also presents high class concerts at varied times and places throughout the year. , it is said, are happier than brunettes. The fun of the fair. There is not a single authenticated case where great problems are solved by dreams. ROSS/" HEIGHT' PLANTING NURSERY STOCK The proper time to plant perennials, roses, fruit trees, shrubbery and other kinds of nursery stock, is just as soon as the ground can be worked. But of course they must be purchased first. There is a vast range in prices and quality. Only shrubs and trees that are in good condition should be considered. This means that the stems and bark will be pliable and green and will have plenty of good, live buds. There will be a good root growth, and this, as well as the top, will be soft and moist. Each plant should be wrapped separately. Granted that good stock has been purchased, the next thing is to get it planted as quickly as possible and with absolutely no exposure to the open air. If the ground is still unfit to plant, open the parcel, soak in water, and plant in a shallow trench, covering the roots and most of the stems with earth firmly packed down. Leave here until permanent locations are ready. SPRING PRUNING Most pruning is done in late winter or early spring. It is not a difficult task, though a little is usually essential with all sorts of shrubs, roses and both fruit and ornamental trees. Dead growth should be removed, though at this time of year it may be difficult to detect dying from live wood. The general idea is to let in light, en- courage strong growth and also turn out a tree or shrub which is fairly symmetrica!. With shrubbery, pruning of those things that bloom late in the year, should be done early in the spring, but shrubs, like the Spirea, which blossom in early summer, should not be tooched with the knife until late summer. Special precautions are necessary with grape vines. If these are pruned in late spring, they will bleed profusely. The work must be carried out before the sap starts to rise. Commercial grape men leave a mere skeleton each spring as the fruit i;s produced on new growth. Raspberries are borne on two year old canes only, so that after the crop has been harvested and the new canes well started, all old wood should be removed. Most of the ordinary roses are cut back severely after growth starts in the spring, and best results are obtained from climbing roses where almost all the old wood is removed in late summer after blooming is over. With flowering shrubs, the aim is to keep new vigorous growth coming on by the removal of weak three and four year old wood. Young fruit trees need little pruning beyond shaping slightly, but after they have started to bear fruit, " siderable growth should be removed each spring, so that the light and air are distributed evenly through the whole tree. BETTER BREED OF HORSES DESIRED Celebrated Clydesdales For Eastern Ontario Two of the ten Clydesdale stallions recently imported by the Dominion Department of Agriculture are to be kept In this district In an effort to improve breeding stock. The remainder will be sent to other points in Canada. Of the two to remain in or around Ottawa one Is a five-year-old which will be ready by 1936. Believing that unless somi definite is done there will be a great dearth of good farm horses in all parts of Canada within the next few years, Hon. Robert Weir, Minister of Agriculture, has formulated a definite horse breeding policy. His present objective is to secure good breeding material. Under the plan formulated free service, free board at the breeding station and half the cost of transportation will be paid on approved and selected pure bred mares of the highest quality.

INC. 70 Fifth Avenue, New York City hoped to secure a number of high-grade stallions and mares which will be sold for breeding purposes. In the event of a sufficient number of these highly selected mares not being available in any locality where one of the imported stallions is located, a second class of mares, not quite so good as the selected class, will be given services on a $5 and $10 basis. If more mares are needed a third class of grade mares will be arranged for on a payment basis and the foals be sold as grade geldings for work purposes. From the first two classes it is hoped to cure breeding stock. The scheme goes further in that it arranges for the sale of the foals from the first two classes mentioned. This will be by yearly auction points in Canada, the auc-to be under government auspices and widely advertised so that breeders and farmers desiring breeding stock of known ancestry will be able to go to these auct" and bid on the animals. The two animals to be kept in Eastern Ontario will likely remain at the Central Experimental Farm in Ottawa, where they are at present.

Issue No. 10--'35 Eastern Canada Potatoes Now Under Regulation The Eastern Canada Potato Marketing Scheme submitted by representatives of the potato industry, has been approved by Hon. Robert Weir, Dominion Minister of Agriculture, and the Governor in Council, upon the recommendation of the Dominion Marketing Boarl. The scheme embraces the provinces of Prince Edward Island, Nova Scotia, New Brunswick and Ontario-The potato growers in these provinces have been receiving inadequate returns for their potatoes and the position of the growers has been particularly- difficult this year. A very large crop and lack of organization has resulted in demoralized marketing conditions. The 1934 potato crop for the four provinces is placed "t 3,308,000 bushels, an increase of 8,188,000 bushels compared with the production in 1933. Under the scheme, it is expected orderly marketing will result primarily through control of the grades of potatoes entering the commercial channels of trade and pototoes of inferior grades will not be allowed to glut the market. Consignment selling, which has been contributing largely to price demoralization will be prohibited and sales will be made under firm contracts. The scheme also provides for the development of export markets and for increasing domestic consumption of potatoes. Young children easily catch cold. So Mrs. Russel Ward, of Hilton Beach, Ont.k wisely says: "If I notice that there is any sign of a cold I give Baby's Own Tablet* and find they are a great help." Thousands of mothers do the same not only for colds but for fretful-ness, indigestion, constipation, teething troubles, colic, upset Stomach and so on. Baby's Own Tablets are safe and sure in relieving childhood's common ailments. Price 25c. BABY'S OWN TABLETS Total milk production in Canada, says "The Agricultural Situation and Outlook," published by the Dominion Department of Agriculture in co-operation with the Department of Trade and Commerce, continues to show an upward tendency which has been due almost entirely to the greater number of cows being milked. It is likely that this trend will continue during 1935. Cheese production continues to decline steadily with milk being diverted mainly to the manufacture of creamery butter and to the fluid milk market, due to more remunerative returns from these sources. Prices for cheese have been lower both on the ( seas and Canadian markets during the past season, while butter prices on Canadian markets have improved during the past two years. Creamery butter production ha increased to such an extent that stc rage stocks are considerably highe than in the previous year. Thes< high storage stocks will tend to kee] butter prices at a lower and mori uniform level during the early months of 1935 than in the past son unless some of the sur stocks are exported. If no export movement takes place, a small carry-over in butter stocks is not unlikely, with a consequent depressing influence on prices which may cause a diversion of milk into cheese manufacture. Increasd production in many dairy countries and in Canada does not point to any marked improvement in returns for dairy products. Moreover, a general improvement in pasture conditions in 1935, with a consequent increase in butter production, would probably lower Canadian prices of butter. Canadian dairymen, however, can improve their economic position by a careful culling of unprofitable cows and by better herd management in breeding and feeding operations to increase the average production per cow. GOLD EXPORT IS NEARLY DOUBLE Canada's January Total Sustains Increase Of Past 10 Months Ottawa.--Gold bullion exported in January amounted in value to $10,-835,000, all of which went to the United States, the Dominion Bureau of Statitics reported. In the corresponding month last year the value was $5,627,384. Gold bullion exported in the ten months ended January amounted to $80,643,431 against $49,320,692 in the same period last year. Raw gold exported in the ten months ended January was valued at $3,227,639 in comparison with $1,-904,864 in the corresponding year last year. Exports of aluminum in January amounted to 14,942 cwt., valued at $234,923, more than double that of January, 1933, when it was 6,806 cwt., at $140,913, the bureau reported yesterday. A Man's Strength You can't measure all men by the same standard. You call one man wise because he invests his savings in real estate, and the other foolish because he spends all that he has for an etching, but they are both equally fool-ish. Each invests in the thing that will bring him the largest measure of satisfaction. Each buys the thing that to him is bread.

Since then it has reappeared daily,, and allows the children to play with it. "Technological advance is making a shorter and shorter working day and working week inevitable."--- Glenn Frank.
