The Canadian Forestry Journal ad- vises: Of the 1,171,614 acres in the lower Trent watershed. Eighty-three per cent. are still forest covered but only 700 acres are virgin forest. Less than 90,000 acres have been moderate- ly culled. The rest have been severely culled and are therefore in unmer- chantable condition. Nearly 60,000 acres are waste lands, the results of fires. Some 580,000 acres are covered with young and second growth trees. Less than 12 per cent. are farmed. Fires and Axes Waste 3 Million Arid Acres The bulk of the country involved should be placed in, and managed as, a permanent forest reserve for the growing of timber. The Provincial Government still controls about one- third of the area, partly under timber licenses, partly in cancelled and aban- doned lots. The municipalities are naturally closely interested in seeing as much of their land as possible put to profitable use in order to reduce the individual tax assessments and at the same time to permit of a higher degree of civilization through increas- ed industrial activities and educational facilities. Private landlords will be benefited by better protection. Permanent manufacturers can be established, in- dustrial development will increase, and the public at large will gain in prosperity.

It is good prac- tice to add a little water frequently in- stead of waiting for the automobile engine to knock for water, especially in summer. With cars using the ter system care should be taken the points are cleared frequently. this is not done the motor will re- fuse to throttle down and pull evenly. Proper washing care is particuarly advisable with a new motor car, for it soon can be mined if the job is performed in the manner some irre- sible garages employ.

It is alleged that trees on residential streets are being virtually destroyed in many cases by wire stringing crews and that when protests are made the answer usually given is that civic per- mission for the removal or multilation of the trees has been secured. vm”.-Ma ‘\ AM Trees on civic property (on the street) are the property of the corpor- ation. No private company or in- dividual has the right to interfere with them unless by special permit from the engineer's department and under the supervision of an official from that department. it cannot be too strongly impressed upon householders and others that every mutilation of trees and er other circumstances is'a viola- tion of the civic regulations, and the perpetrators thereof are liable to the penalties prescribed for such offences. The matter is one that concerns the health, comfort and beauty of the com- munity. The remedy for the epidemic of tree mutilation is in the hands of the citizens and it is to be hoped that it will be promptly applied whenever necessary. A singular tree in Cuba is called the yaguey-tree. It begins to grow at the top of another tree. The seed is car5 ried by a bird, or waited by the Wind, and, falling into some moist, branch- ing part, takes root and speedily be- gins to grow. It sends a kind of thin, stringlike root down the body of the tree, which is soon followed by others. [11 course of time these rootings strike 'the ground, and growth immediately commences upwards. New rootings ' continue to be formed and get strength ’until the one tree grows as a, net |round the other. The outside one 'lurrounds and presses the inner, strangling its life and augmenting its own power. At length the tree within is killed, and the parasite that has taken possession becomes itself the itree. at It the carburetor catches fire, do not fire way to panic.

This draws the flame to the carburetor, where it will do no arm.

If Prof. Lee of Manitoba Agricultural college writes: Life itself preserves that which lives but the preservation of lifeless material requires in many cases all the science and skill that is available. The larvae of flies and other insects together with molds and microbes are the three chief agencies which cause all food material to go bad. It is comparatively easy to keep away the flies, and not diflicult to kill the molds, although their spores or seeds are always floating invisible in the air and fall into food if left un- covered even for a minute or two. but the presence and persistence of microbes or bacteria is the cause of rest of the loss of good food gone in. bad.

If backache, scalding urine or frequent urination bother or distress you, or if uric acid in the blood has caused rheu- matism, gout or sciatica or you suspect kidney or bladder trouble just write Dr. Pierce at the Surgical Institute, Buffalo, N .Y.; send a sample of urine and de- scribe symptoms. You will receive free medical advice after Dr.Pierce’s chemist has examined the urineâ€"this will be carefully done without charge, and you will be under no obligation. Dr. Pierce during many years of experimentation has discovered a new remedy which he finds is thirty-seven times more power- ful than lithia in removing uric acid from the system. If you are suffering from backache or the pains of rheuma- tism, go to your best druggist and ask for a 50 -cent box of “Anun’c” put up by Dr. Pierce. Dr. Pierce’s Favorite Prescription for weak women and Dr. Pierce’s Golden Medical Discovery for the blood have been favorably known for the past forty years and more. They are standard remedies to-da â€"as well as Doctor Pierce’s Pleasant ellets for the liver and bowels. You can get a large trial package for 10c. of any one of these remedies by writing Dr. Pierce.
