I am longing for the time When the spring is In its prime, And birds are singing happily of love, When the hedgerows, pink and white, Are a solace to the sight, And the lark.is in his watch tower up above, I am longing for the day When the right shall win the day And wrong be relegated to the dust, When no freedom is denied, When there's peace the whole world : wide, Aud rulers are both merciful just, and I am longing for the grace Which shall make a happy place For people of all countries of the earth, That shall make all nations see That their truest dignity : 1s to cultivate the things of highest worth, ; A.

Your Feed Supply It is not too early in the season for a farmer to be thinking about | his seed supply for the coming spring. In far too many cases no thought is given to the matter until a few days before the seed is re- quired and by that time it may be dificult to obtain, and he will be compelled to take seed of inferior quality, It is a good policy to be sure of your seed supply early in the season, The farmer who is grow- ing a standard.variety or grain. that is yielding well and is adapted to his farm would be well advised to use it for his own seeding requirements. It has been proven that if such grains are well cleaned, free from weed seed, mixtures and other impurities and the very best sown it would im- prove rather than deteriorate, On-a lot of farms there are bins of the very best grains that are be- ing fed to our live stock or being used for feeding ' purposes, Would it not be good business to sét up the fanning mill at this time of the year when farm work {8 not so press- ing, and clean this grain or haul fit to your nearest cleaning. centre? Smaller grains may be chopped or taken home and fed whole, They make good feed, but poor seed, the best is none too good to sew, for whatever a man goweth that shall he also reap, Start early, clean and re- clean your best grain before feed: ing, and keep the best for seeding purposes, It will also pay you from a financial standpoint, The tendency is for prices to go up as the season advances and the supply gets less plentiful. It is good farm practice and. you will save time and money by being sure 'of your seed supply early, Ii i "Autos Of The Future Tampa, Fla,--There will come a day, says Sir Malcolmn Campbell, holder of the 'world's land speed record, when 'people will drive cars that weigh half ag much as they do |. today, they'll cost half as:much, too, and they'll get just as much speed out of them--that"s what speed like mine accomplishes."

Soon all signs of winter will have disappeared and the earth gradually change from its drab coat of brown to something green and warm. But before this change, the would-be gardener commences his annual preparations. Plans are drawn up, seed catalogues perused, and equipment is checked over. Much interest is added to gardening by proper planning and much prac- tical value also. Like a great pic- ture or a humble barn or garage, the finished result will largely de- pend upon the thought which pre- cedes actual construction. WIDTH VEGETABLE ROWS Practically all vegetables should be grown in absolutely straingh lines. little things like lettuce, radish and carrots can go in rows from eight to twelve inches apart, while pota- toes, peas and beans will need fif- teen to eighteen inches and corn and tomatoes, sprawling cucumbers and melons from 18 to 24.0 To save space, rows of early and small stuff stich as lettuce and spinach can be planted between corn and beets. | /-- BURNS £ SCALDS ¢ Sold by all Druggists--25¢, 35¢ (tobe), 50¢ and $1.00 'OINTMENT Spring is once more approaching i) 'Where this close planting is follow- ed, it will be necessary to cultivate and fertilize frequently, FLOWER PLANS In planning the flower: garden, time of planting is Important be- cause some things must be started from seed indoors or in a hot bed. Certain flowers will stand a light frost and some will not To have flowers from carly summer until au- tumn should be noted down to pre- vent the tiny things from being hid- den by such tall growers as Cosmos, African Marigolds and Stocks. Col- ors are important. Occasionally two shades do not go well together. Fra- grance should be taken into consid- eration. Flowers like the Sweet scented Evening Stock, while not particularly beautiful, have such a delightful odor, particularly in the early evening, that some of them should be included. Then again, flowers have individual preferences. Some like partial shade. Among these are tuberous rooted Begonias and annual Larkspurs,, while the bright Nasturtiums, Portulaca and California Poppy revel in full sun and a dry location. , With flowers, shrubs, roses, lawns and all forms of decorative gardening, informal planting is advised. Straight lines hould be avoided and those already in existence, like house foundations and fences should be screened. Clumps of shrubbery and a few rees about a house will not only break these harsh lines, but will tend to tie the structure down to carth and produce a complete pic- ture."

EATS Authority Sees Values Dis- torted Beyond All Reason By Speculation Toronto, --Until the problem of land values, distorted beyond all rea- son by speculation and fictitious building booms has been solved, no solution cam be reached on housing problems in Canada or the United States, A. G. Dalzell, member of the Engineering Institute of Canada and | leading authority on building prob- lems, declared recently in a paper read before the annual convention of the Association of Ontario Land Sur- veyors, meeting here, Exorbitant assessments, which drove low-wage workers out of mu- nicipalities into suburban areas where they were forced to live in houses under unsanitary conditions, were caused by artificial valuations of land, Mr. Dalzell's paper stated, causing a basic Instabilly in building which caused a proportionately arti- ficial valuation of bullding materials, Because of illness, Mr, Dalzell was not able to appear at the convention and his paper was read by Tracy Le May of Toronto, secretavy-treasurer of the association, Shelter, Mr, Dalzell stated, was the basic essential of housing. But today just as truly as during the mid- dle ages and its days of bishops' palaces and gorgeous cathedrals, poverty lived In the shadow of lux- ury and opulence. As long as this condition existed, he sald, it was a mockery of civilization, And owner- ship of property was the fundamen tal cause of the condition, because possession of the land was essential to the erection of a dwelling, Land, generously and extravagant- ly given' away by Canada, assumed unsuspected values under the stimu- lus of booms, said Mr, Dalzell. Land in Calgary, assessed at $40 an acre had zoomed to an assessment of $2, 000 an acre, causing wild speculative buying, and then had skidded to a final assessment of $50, This, lhow- ever, had caused workingmen to be, driven out of the municipality, des- pite huge areas of available building land in the city, a BOOMS Booms floated around the contin- ent, Vancouver, Miami, Chicago, else- where, he continued, In each in- stance they were attended by infla- tion of values .and deflation, The basic fact that a $2,000 lot with a $2,000 house did not constitute a $4,000 dwelling was not realized, he declared, Absentee ownership in Western Canada had arisen out of huge land, grants to the railways as iniquitous and serious as that of the absentee landlords in Ireland. . A wide survey of the situation by a leading United States authority had revealed that the market for sky- scrapers was drugged, yet a crying need for adequate low-price housing was existent. The housing evil was portrayed In such a light that it was shown that less than one-half of the homes In the United States had the 'essentials of running water in- side, indoor tollets, garbage collec- tion, fire protection and healthful surroundings, Telephones, central heating, central lighting and bath- tubs were not even considered in the survey, Similarly 5,993 flats in one city area were equipped to the extent of 70 per cent, with oufside toilets which were used, on an average, by nine families each, All this arose from the high cost of land. Great Britain had solved and met the problem with loan go- cieties in addition to restriction of values. "Housing was a disgrace everywhere on the continent," he sald. Land surveyors, he suggested, should refuse to "prostitute their tal- ents for the benefit of speculators," and lead-in the reform of values which would bring better housing, Officers of the association elected were: President, E.
