I need not stop to tell you how fundamental to the life of the nation is the production of its food. Our thoughts may ordinarily ,be concen- trated upon the cities and the hives -of industry, upon the cries of the crowded market place and the clangor' of the factory, but it is from the quiet int’erspaces of the open valleys and the hillsides that we draw the sources of life and prosperity, from the farm. and the ranch, from the forest and the mine. Without these every street would be silent, every office deserted, every factory fallen into disrepair. And yet the farmer does not stand upon the same footing with the fores- ter and the miner in the market of credit. He is the servant of the sea- sons? Nature determines how long he must wait for his crops; and will not be hurried in her processes. He may give his note, but the ‘season of its maturity depends upon the season when his crop matures, lies at the gates of the market where his pro- ducts are sold. And the security he gives is of a character not known in the broker’s office or as familiarly as it might be on the counter ofthe 'banker.â€"-Woodrow Wilson, to Con- gress. . Fertilizing Use of Peat The most important use to which peat is .put in this country is as a fertilizer, the annual consumption for that purpose being, according to Popular Mechanics, 41,080 tons, while ‘. l only 1,300 tons were used for fuel,| 3,000 tons for stock food and 2,000 tons in the manufacture of paper. In preparing peat for uSe as a fertilizer the field bearing the peat deposit, un- .~less it is already under cultivation, is thoroughly drained and plowed, and planted for one or two seasons with” some cropfwhich destroys or disinte‘. grates thié..;.99§.rss eaterisl rail. or: TM‘J’wepofi. ‘ ' through which the heated air and. fan blowers.

Amateur photographers do not, in many cases, pay sufficient attention to the composition of the picture they are taking, particularly when the photograph is a portrait taken in‘ doors. A quite plain person will often make a charming picture if suitably and gracefully posed against a good background. ’Most amateur indoor show too much furniture. ter of fact, a better picture is in- variably obtained when a greater part of the furniture is moved out of range of the camera. It does away with that crowded appearance seen in so many otherwise good photo- graphs, and gives, instead, a sense of space and proportion. " Amateurs may obtain excellent effects 'by posing their subjects be- fore a mirror. The Iortrait, which should always have a dark, hanging background, may be taken in profile with the full face reflected in the mirror. Or the position may be re- versed, the profile outlined in the mir- ror, and the full, orthree-quarter, face looking at the camera. photographs As a mat- . : .3;- 41'.

TAYLOR forest fire protection than has been ' Marble and Granite Monuments “3;; '5} “5?? t’. uuznur Manitoba Indians Peas Rcsoiution is Guard Against Fire ‘ Probably nrwhrre else iii Canada 5.; there‘a stronger co-operarive spirit i.i developed by the Chief Fire Rangu‘ of the Dominion Government among the rangers, Indians. packers of the Northern Manitoba Fire District. The work among the lndians has been especially beneficial. for in the past they Were notoriously careless, especially in leaving camp fires. But, largely owing to the energy and initiative of the Chief Ranger, the attitude of the Indians has been changed from one of indifference to one of keen interest, so much so, that that official writes: "The conservation of the forests has become as gI‘Gd hot 9. topic out here as real estate in the West." Recently, when treaty-money was being paid to the Indians at Cross Lake, a special council meeting of seventy-five to eighty Indians was cal- led, at which an animated discussion of forest fire protection took place. The Chief sang» writes: “While the meeting was in progress, the Indian Agent and party time, but to the sur- prise of Tar-icy meeting held in- terest. till, 2:; a. standing vote, all as- serted, fin-sir willingness to help in the protectin o.” the forests from fire. The chief and councillors wished me to convey to the Director of Forestry utOttawa this, their resolution.” Whenever possible such councils are attended by the Chief Ranger, and all Indians promising to coâ€"operate with the Dominion rangers are presented with a meiti badge of office. The most intelligent of the Indians are ex:- gaged as regular fire rangers by the Dominion Government and do very conscientious work. Although the pa- trol is difficult, being done wholly by canoe, and the weather is often in- clement, .the eighteen fire rangers in this district average about eighteen miles a day, including Sundays, throughout the Summer. During the whole season, no Serious damage was_done by fire although many incipient forest fires were ex- tinguished, a fact that speaks well for the efficiency of the patrol and the value of the co-operative spirit in- culcated in the Indians. 4*. one We, the undersigned hereby agree to sell a package of five standard size 5 cent boxes of Silver Tip Silent Matches for twenty cents.
