Speeding is. ever one of the chief causes of accidents, there being -a number of drivers who feel sure that they can bring their car.to a dead stop, if 'necessary, in a few feet even though travelling at high speed. Blinding lights {s another contribu- tory factor.to accidents, and many of thoge whose cars were wrecked dur- ing the course of the year, and who were injured can blame blinding lights for their mishap. _ Cars whose brakes are not in good order, passing other machines on the curves and hills, and defective lights are other causes of accidents, while there is still a time-worn trick of try- ing to beat trains to level-crossings. Each and all of these were responsible for a certain number of accidents dur- ing the course of the year. The Province of Quebec is gradually eliminating level-crossings within {ts but this is a matter that cannot be completed in a day, or a year, and until such time as all level: "slow down and coms to a dead step before venturing across a legel cros- sing. In a number of cases these cros- sings are "blind ones, and unless a driver comes to a stop before ven- turing across the tracks he runs the risk of not only having his car all smashed -by an oncoming trajn, but also 'paying for his folly with life, Motorists do mot always escape scot free in crashes, as during. the course of 1936 more than 50 per cent of those who lost their lives in col- lisions or accidents were at the wheel of a car. Pedestrians especially those who are in the habit of jay-walking or crossing the streets at places other than corners, also suffered heavily during the course of the year, both in Drivers of horse-drawn vehicles also came in for their share of casu- alties, as a number of drivers were killed and injured, and animals des- troyed as the result of accidents with "automobiles. 3 : Juriously enough - the heaviest wionth: for- highway accidents JIast year was not during the height of the tourist season with {ts influx of Un- ited States visitors, but October when nearly all visitors had returned home after their 1935 vacation, The comb- Ination .of early morning frost and rain, which has the effect of making the roads slippery, caused innumey- able skids and accidents with nor- mally careful drivers losing. control of their machines on ice-coated roads. On the other hand, February was the month during 1936 when the smallest number of accidents was re- ported "this being due. possibly to the fact that a numbér of motorists in the Province store their machines away in the Fall and only take them out of the garage during the- latter part of March or the héginning of April, «While no official statistics regard- die number of automobile 'accidents. deaths and property damage during 19356 have yet been issued the total when it is made public will reveal the ever-pressing need of caution, and it will 'serve to drive home the old mot- to "An ounce of "prevention is worth a pound of cure! ® Leaves Million For Journalism!

FELT LIKE AN 01D] G WOMAN -- AT 30! Hands, Ankles 'Swollen With Rheumatism She had begun to feel like an old woman --- yet she was only thirty.

My hands and feet are normal after six months of Kruschen, and I feel different in every way."--(Mrs,) M. i The pains of rheumatism are fre- quently caused by uric acid deposits 'in the muscles and joints. Two ef- fective solvents of these deposits are sodium and potassium. Kruschen Salts contain both sodium and potas- sium, They bring a double action to bear in dissolving the uric acid.

BELL with the co-operation of the various departments: of Ontario Agricultural College. £a The business of farming is yearly , becoming more and more dependent upon facts that have been gathered regarding livestock and _ livestock management, crop production, soil management, disease and insect cons trol 'and business organization of the farming industry.' Individual prob- lems invelving one or more of these, and many other phases of agricul ture, engage the attention of Ontario farmers from day to day. During the winter months there is a little more time for study of the most acute problems, Through this column farmers may secure the latest information pertain- To intro- duce this service Professor Bell has | prepared the following typical prob- lems to indicate od information which should be given in order that a satisfactory answer can be made. If answer is desired by letter en- close stamped and addressed envelope for reply. Address all inquiries to Professor Henry G. Bell, Room 421, 73 Adelaide St. W., Toronto, Ont, QUESTION II: -- J. G. H., Bruce County: --"Will a 2-12-6 fertilizer give as good results sown in the ordinary way as ¥% the amount of 4-24-12 fer- tilizer sown in the same way on heavy clay land?" ANSWER: -- We find our fertilizer tests that in all cases, fertilizer sown with a dvill,--which would inciude fer- a sown with a good fertilizer "dining ing attachment, gives. much better i than the same feyx- tilizer sown broadeast and work- ed in by discing and harrowing. | The reason' for this is undoubted- ly the fact that available plant- food is concentrated nearer the seed but not touching it to any extent, and is therefore available in considerable quantity for early help to the growing crop. « The second part of your ques- tion comparing concentrated fer- tilizer with the _single strength fertilizer raises a question which has not as yet been fully settled. or instance, the claim is made that 200 Ibs. of 4-21-12 will give as good results as 400 Ibs. of $10. 6. Both these parcels of fertilizer contain exactly the same a.ount of plant. -nutrients (nitrogen, confirmed the claim that the one- 'half weight of concentrated fer- tilizer is as effective &s the nor- mal weight of a single Strength 'fertilizer in all casés. Of course, the double strength fertilizer than it is in the single strength. We suspect that where the claim of more efficient spreading of fer-| tilizer on account of concentra- tion is claimed for a particular type of machine, that actually no comparison has been made with - the efliciency of an equal amount of single strength fertilizer. Understand, we are not arguing against the use of concentyated (fertilizers; we are arguing for "fair and honest comparisons. centrated fertilizer tests, final decisions can be made. QUESTION MI: S. GoM, Essex County:--"We have a field from which we have been cutting alfalfa hay 1or sev- eral years. It has turned pretty much to grass. We pastured it last season and want to again this season. We thought it might quite a large herd of cattle and want to get all the feed possible oltof it. The soil is a sandy loam. I would be glad. to get vour ad- vice." : ANSWER: Irom our experience, vou would do well to least three bags I believe apply at ficiently dry to drive on. fertilizer with a lime broadeaster, but if you do not have this implement, an ordinary fertilizer-gram will do the job fairly well, if you leave the dises suspended so that they will not cut into the alfalfa sod. We have gotten profitable re- sults on alfalfa, by top-dressing with 0-12-10 or 0-12-15, but in as much as your alfalfa is killed out pretty largely in 'some tions, the 2% nitrogen in addi- phorus and potash will be of great help to the grass.

Golfers' Friend Thousands of Canadian who have discovered they can play golf without incurring too heavy a finanefal bur- den will he grateful for the thought- Tulness of the Hon, George H, Sedge- wick, chairman of the Taviff Board. | Manufacturers complained that cheap | gdlfballs from the United Kingdom have been making the Canadian mar- ! ket unprofitable, and asked for an ad valorem plus a specific tariff on them and they were told by Mr. Sedgewick that the game was paved by rich an poor alike. ~ He did not agree that only high pricad balls should be used, but sug- gested that the poorer participants should be able to buy according to their purses. Nor did the chairman consider unreasonable the proportion of the domestic. market; Canadian manufacturers retain about 60 per cent and the British producers the remainder. The man who plays a sound enough game to enter club competitions and open. tournaments prefers the higher priced ball of course, because he, be- lleves it gives him distance, accur- acy and durability, But the great ma- jority of linksmen are '"'duffers". who follow the sport mainly for recreation {and exercise, It is this big army that "will bo pleased with the opinion of Mr, Sedgewick, . Taking the opposite view, however average golfers might improve their game by using first class balls, The moral and mental effect sometimes is the means of {aking strokes off one's gcora. So as not to dizeriminate ag- ainst Canadian manufacturers, let the mashie-wielders allernate their chases when the pocket book stand it. When keeping your eyes fixed on the job ahead, don't stumble over the multitude of important details in your own. WAKE UP YOUR LIVER BILE-- And You'll Jump Out of Bed in the Morning Rarin' to.
