THE OBSERVER. DRYDEN ONTARIO The Outlook ~ For Dairying Canada Should Have Better Organiza- tion Says Dairy Commissioner Two addresses delivered by Me J: A. Ruddick, Dominion dairy and cold storage commissioner, before the last annual conventions of the Eastern and Western Ontario Dairymen's As- sociations, have, by request, been published by the department of agri culture at Ottawa in pamphlet form and can be had on application to the publications branch of the department | One deals with the "Outlook for Dairying in Canada," and in doing sO tells of what is being done by coun- tries that are our rivals in the British market, and what advances are neces- sary if Canada is to successfully com- pete with them. The other address deals with the "Marketing of Dairy Produce." It calls attention to the advisability of Canadian dairymen concerning themselves to a greater extent in trade problems in the pres- ent critical state of the industry. Mr. Ruddick points out that, as normal conditions return, competition will be- come keener, and that as prices are controlled by world demand, a closer study of world conditions is advisable. Producers, he thinks, rely too much on government action instead of de- pending more on their own initiative. Turning to the address on the "Out: look for Dairying," Mr. Ruddick's "conelusions are that there is room for better organization, that the standardization and grading of but- ter and cheese intended for export is essential, that the consumption of dairy products at home should be en- couraged in every possible way, that the practice of shipping cheese abroad when only a few days old should be discounted, that a better class of men should be encouraged to take up cheese making, that the vicious sys: tem under which cheese makers are required to make good any loss on inferior cheese should be abolished, and that the cheese making industry would be greatly improved by com- bining many of the existing factories - into larger and more economical units. Qil Resources of Japan Japan's oil resources are vastly greater than she has led the world to believe, according to reports pre- pared after months of exhaustive study for presentation before the American Institute of Mining and Metallurgical Engineers. "The con- clusion reached by the American en- gineers is that "Japan has three cen- turies of supply at the present rate of consumption, while the United States has only twenty years of probable oil reserve."

Here's Gocd News for You Lindsay, Ont.-- "Dr. Plerce's Golden Medical Discovery is the best medicine I have ever taken for stomach trou- ble. For many years I suffered with gastric stom- ach trouble and nervous indiges- . tion. Would be so bad at times that it was necessary for me to be in bed two or three days at a time. I have doctored and taken many different medicines with little relief. Just recently I began taking Golden Medical Discovery and it has given more relief than all the other medicines I have .ever taken. My stomach does not bother me and I have not had any indigestion since taking this medicine. I can highly recommend the 'Discovery' to others who suffer with stomach trouble."-- Mrs, Geo.

WwW, N. U. i4ia true, - Ade Without Gas Bag New Idea for Airship to be Flying Vacuum While "Wwe are still waiting helium, the non-inflammable gas, to. be produced cheaply enough and in sufficient quantity to be used general- ly in airships, an Italian, Signor Vau- gean, is striving after the same ef- fect in a different way. He proposes to overcome the danger of fire, ever present in airships when hydrogen is used, by having a huge vacuum in the) place of the usual gas-filled envelope. The idea is a good ome, but it is likely to be very difficult in carrying out. It is proposed to overcome the difficulty to the terrific air pressure from outside, which would amount to fifteen pounds on each square inch of surface, by building the equivalent of the airship's gas bag in three sections, one inside the other. tw Some of the air would be expelled from the outer cover, thus lessening the pressure on the second section, which, in its turn, would have still more air expelled from it. The in- side, or third, cover would be made as near a vacuum as possible by hav- ing its air withdrawn. By this means the pressure on the vacuum container would be reduced to five pounds om each square inch. : The engines of the proposed new airship are another unusual feature, for it is proposed to use four 300- h.p. motors, each burning heavy oil in place of petrol, so that the risk of fire will be reduced to a minimum. These motors are not only to drive the air- ship, but are also to operate a series of suction pumps, which are to with- draw the air from between the three sections and also make the vacuum in the interior. English Stamp Firms Amalgamate Have Both Been Established Over One Hundred Years Seven thousand million postage stamps have been printed for the British Government since 1911 by the wellknown firm of Harrison and Sons. Those stamps would stretch four times round the earth. The firm is about to amalgamate with Perkins, Bacon and Co., of Southwark, an equally noted firm which, in 1840, produced Rowland Hill"s historic original penny post- age stamp. Interviewed recently, Mr. Guy Hazi- rison said: "This association of Brits] ish stamp printers, both established over 100 years, is unique, and may be regarded as a development of the modern spirit in which the constant endeavor to reduce the cost of produc- tion is maintained." Mr. Harrison represents the sixth for { | | ~Qut of Seris--tiave No Appetite Your Liver Is Sluggish CARTERS LITTLE LIVER PILLS will help put you right in afew days.

Hundreds of pounds weight of magazines are be- ing assembled on the N.T.C.s ware- house floor; they are sorted out into groups of about fifty each, then box- ed and sent forth on their long voy- age. The beautifully illustrated ladies' fashion papers are the prime favorite with the womenfolk of the north; from the designs in them the Indian women model their dresses crudely, the half-breeds used the il- lustrations to decorate their cabin walls, while to the Eskimos they are a source of wonder and are often used as actual dress material being attached to the skin garments of the] belles of Coronation Gulf and Victoria Landing. --Edmonton Bulletin. is Not That Broad What made Emma Goldman dis gruntled in Russia was that the new generation of the same family to act as director of the firm. China's Large Coal Lands Estimates Show Country has Bulk of Hard Coal The coal fields of China now rough- ly surveyed are estimated to be as large as all the coal lands of North America. Coal occurs in most of the provinces of China proper and in near- ly every _province of Manchuria. Shansi is a province of China proper scarcely three hundred miles from Tientsin, the port of Peking, with which it has railway connection. The coal fields of this province underlie about thirty thousand square miles of territory, and, according to British authorities, several of the coal seams are twenty feet or more in thickness. Much of the coal of Shansi is anthra- cite of excellent quality, and it is estimated that these deposits consti- tute about four-fifths of the world's supply of hard coal. Salome as an Acrobat Salome was an acrobatic tumbler-- not a dancer of the modern ballet type, according to evidence laid be- fore the Royal Archaelogical Institute by George C. Bruce, of Oxford. If the earliest legends, which Mr. Bruce claims are correct, are proved to be theologians, historians and others. have long labored under a mis- gpprehensian as to. Salome's first claim to fame. All the old parch- ments and carvings show her posing as an acrobat and not as a dancer, Mr. Bruce declares. Ancient Fortifications The explorers scale Mount Everest discovered among other things, several ancient fortifications built in unexpected places in the high Tibetan mountain valleys, 15,000 feet above sea level Partly to protect the fields from being washed away by mountain freshets and partly to guard against raids by enemy tribes, walls 20 feet high and often more than a mile long, guarded by strange round watch towers, were constructed at intervals at the head of these fertile valleys. The most appalling accident in his-| tory was the falling of an' amphi theatre in Rome in 'the time of Tiberius. Fifty thousand people were crushed. who attempted tol. conception of far-flung and unbridled liberty didn't permit her to talk or eat.--Ottawa Journal.

Making An Airplane Many Varieties of Materials Used in 1 Various Parts i | t Few people realize what an im- mense number of parts there are in an aeroplane, or how many varieties | of iron, metal, rubber and flax are used in its comsiruction, writes' Major W. 1. Blake, an English authority. -First of all are the longerons, the pieces of wood which run the whole length from. front to rear of the fuse- lage or body of the machine. = These is obtainable, or failing ash, spruce. | They are connected vertically by | short members of the same material, | and cross-bracing wires further! The whole | body is covered either with specially prepared flaxen-linen fabric or with {wo or three-ply wood. - The planes again are constructed largely of ash or spruce. The two main spars which form the chief mem-| bers of the planes are usually hollovw- ed and "stream-lined" .in order to minimize weight and resistance, and the wing tips themselves are frequent- ly built of walnut or solid ash. The fabric which covers the planes is composed of the best Irish linen, and is coated with a "dope" prepara- tion to make it air and water tight, to shrink the fabric and to head resistance. Next in order comes ithe under- carriage, again built of solid ash if possible, and fitted with pneumatic tyres and shock absorbers of various types, spring, oil baths, rubber blocks | and rubber coils being used. The axles themselves are usually built of hollow steel tubes. The propeller is built up of a num-! ber of layers or laminations of wood, usually alternate strips of walnut and mahogany. It has a metal cenire where it is affixed to the engine, and the tips are usually bound with fabric or copper in order to prevent fraying, which easily occurs when an aerc- plane taxies over a field with the pro- peller just touching the long grass. Kngines are built of a whole variely of metals of almost every grade of hardness, but generally speaking the principles of motor car engine con- struetion are followed. Inter-plane bracing wires are now usually made in the form of a thin, stream-lined steel ribbon, known as fhe R.A.F. wire. This form of brac- ing has been found to give the great- est amount of strength with the least lessen its First English Farm Book Work Printed in 1523 Was Valuable 2 As a Curiosity i: There was on sale the other day at the well known Sotheby's salesrooms, New Bond Sireet, W. London, the first agricultural treatise ever printed in English. It is entitled the "Boke of Husband- rye," and was by Sir Anthony Fitz herbert, Derbyshire, who was- born in 1470, and was a judge as well as a farmer. - The work was printed in 1523, and like all books printed in the first half of the sixteenth century has a very high. value as an antiguarian curios- ity. It had an illustrated title page bear- ing a woodcut- of a man ploughing with two oxen, and with a boy fo drive his team, and started with, "Here beginneth a new tract or treat- ise most profitable for husbandmen and very fruitful for all persons to read," and concluded, "Here endeth the book of husbandry." Sir Anthony, who lived in the reign of Henry VIII, was a wellknown writer, two of his works, "The Grand ity of Justice of the Peace,' wou him renown and a permanent place . in legal jurisprudence. He died in 1538. A Tense Situation Mrs. Jones found Mrs. Smith, the aviator"s wife, in tears. "Whatever is the matter, dear?" she said, anxiously. "I'm worrying about Harold," said "He's been trying for a week to kill our cat, and as a last resource he took her up in his plane. He said he would take her up two thousand feet and drop her over the side." "Well, about?" "Lots," exclaimed the frantic man. "Harold isn't home yet, the cat is."'--XHarper's. my what is there to . worry WO- and Finished According to Instructions "Don't prolong and draw out your. stories to sueh an extent," said the editor to the seedy-looking individual, whe supplied him with his "thrillers. ing the finish," : So this is how the writer finished off his next story--and, incidentally, the villain: ; "The villain took a drink, his hat, his departure, no notice of his pui- suers, a revolver out of his hip pocket Fletcher's Castoria is strictly a remedy for Infants and Childrem.
