; in the NEW POLAR fOOD “Manufactured-From Pure Blades of ' Arctic Moss Mining engineers and prospectors :‘along the Peel and Mackenzie Rivers, on the Arctic Ocean Slepe. diacovered “‘a new breakfast, feed in the Arctic moss abundant there. ‘ a Thousands of square miles of moss await either consumption by settlers and their pack animals or conservation for fu- ture generations by Canadian Pin- chots. James East, a mining expert. noticed that dogs were fond of the moss which grows prolificaily in that region. His tests showed it contains sustenance for man and beast. For dogs he made cakes of moss mixed with lard 'and caribou tallow'. Dogs ate the cakes eagerly and thrived. The miners then tried it and subsisted chiefly on the moss. Other prospectors learned of the new food with joy and began using it. Mr.,East named the new food Mos- 'solyte. It conservationists do not prevent it. it is intended to produce reindeer along the Arctic slope to help consume the great moss supply. DAN DERBYSHIRE _ Brockville I One of the best known dairy authori~ ties in Canada. ' V -- Patrick Once More Ai'traveller who dropped into a North Ontario town vouches for. the following: As the "Sudbury to the Soo’ train yes on its way West the other day a certain judge came “aboard, and finding all the seats occupied, finally sat down beside an Irishman who was seated just in front of the judge, who got. into conversation with the Irishman. and .soon discovered that he had Only been in Canada for about two years. His Honor was full of praise for Canada and especially oil‘Northern On'ario. 'The Irishman listened to the glowing description for some time, but finally became restive and remarksd that Canada might be a pretty good place butcould in no wise compare, With Ireland. To this His Honor objected. and to strengthen his argument said: “Now Pat. you know very well that ,‘you would be in Ireland many and unany a long year before you wou‘d ever have the privilege of sitting with a judge." Pat was fairly bowled out for a minute, but with an Irish ready wit replied: ‘True fer you, yer Honor; but sure now, yer l-lonor would be “in Ireland many and many a long year before ye'd be a judge.” T0 ESCAPE APPENDICITIS -.An Exercise Commended‘hy a Well Known Physician A simple way to prevent appendi- citis was recently described by a well- known physician. Every night and morning, he advised. go on your knees, bend backward until you sit on your heels, and. at the same time, bend the upper part of your body for- I ward as far as possible. Do this six to ten times. _ ' You may vary the exercise by stand- ing with heels together and toes point- ing straight forward. and then stoop- ing into a sitting posture until the knees touch the chest. Do this also six or eight times slowly. The effect is to stir up the intestine neighborhood of the vermi- "form appendix. and to keep it free from the obstruction which is the pri- mary cause of appendicitis.

Large Proportions Whale hunting has always been a picturesque industry,,even in the bar- poon days. 'I‘o-day, wheathe ocean monsters are pursued in steel steam- .are shot With machine guns, the per~ tormance is even more interesting, if it is not quite as romantic. The whale industry is one of which Brit- ish Columbia is proud, and it has been developed to large proportions, though still-in its infancy. As 'yet only one company has a fleet of Whalers at work, its headquarters being at Vic- toria, B.C. . Two thousand Whales were captur- ed along the coast last year, of which 50 were taken by the Canadian com- pany. The method of operation on sighting a whale is to steam as close to it as possible. despatch it with gun, and then tow it to, the nearest whaling station, where it is hauled on to a suitablestage by machinery and cut up_ so that every portion of the huge animal is utilized. From the blubber sperm oil is extracted. The body bones are crushed, ground and sold-as fertilizer. The whale bone is cut from the jaws, trimmed and ship- ped to Dundee, Scotland, to be man- ufactured into various commodities. From-the residue of the blubber and lean meat, guano and glue are made. worth from $5,000 to $10,000 each, the value of the industry'ls obvious. as - 9 (023 1’1' - rsaassa'saos. ransncn FAILS.

THE VALUE OF PHEASANTS "The popularity of the pheasant, as 'a game bird and as a valuable assis - ant to the farmer in keeping down in- sect pests,” says a bulletin issued by 'the Conservation Department at Al- fbany, N.Y., “is manifested in the statewide demand for eggs and birds 'which the Conservation Department is 'sending out from the state game tarp. Sportsmen have found the pht a ant .to be hardy, prolific and game. Far Imers testify that they like to See 1h~ beautiful birds in their fields. for pheasants are the active and tireless ffoe of all kinds of insects and worms that prey on crops." ,., Rabbits In Australia , Rabbits are well known to be the bane of Australia. says the Scientific American: notwithstanding the fact Tthat, according to the view of the cam- .»monweaith meterorologist, Mr. H. A. :Hunt, the burrows of these animals. by keeping the ground broken up. intake it more retentive of rainfallâ€"â€" _a philosophical consideration that strongly suggests Mark Tapley. Lat- gterly, the Australians have been try- ;ing with considerable succesa to turn their curse into a blessing by mar- keting their surplus rabbits (dressed) in European countries.
