TOWN COUNCIL ‘ One hundred acres of asters and: :Dhlox and smaller areas of other kinds of flowers in their multipli- city of color and variety is a: sight more worthy of the country; with which we are now at war' than are the battle-fields of Bel- vgium and France. Germany has {excelled in floriculture. and on her immense areas of perfect bloom ZCanadian seedsmen and gardeners {have depended largely for their flower seeds. Where the florists‘ 'stocks for the. next two years are :to come from is a problem. and 5those of our gardeners who have §adopted the practice of their; Tgrandmothers and have clipped Land stored matured heads or pods from their best plants may later :find themselves very fortunate. ?During the present EurOpezm struggle it may be exceedingly difficult if not impossible. to p11)- icuie ade uate supplies of flmists seeds. Beautiful flowers are not neces- sary to our existence. To be short of garden vegetables would prove a much greater hardship. It would he very in'cqiyenient to be withs out parsnipfis. carrots. beets. ca'n- hage. ~auliflower, radish. celery, and the like. Fortunately.‘these ’seeds are available in other coun- tries, but a large 1')1'0p(.)1‘tion of the importations have come from Europe, principally from France. Their production entails much hand labor, which is available in Europe at a low cost. In parts of Canada we have a better soil and climate for growing these seeds, but our farm labor is inex-o_ perienced in that work and costs fully three times as much as is paid to the peasant women of Germany and France who work in FIELD ROOT AND GARDEN . SEEU- SUPPLIES FROM 1 FRANCE AND GERMANY paid to the peasant Women Germany and France who work the fields. ’ Last \eax our importations from France at the port of Torlon'to alone amounted to 4.621 pounds of radish seed, 1.865 of cabbage. 95 of cauliflower. 6.825 of garden beet. 920 of garden carrot. and 1.202 of celery. We obtained 1,900 pounds of parsnip seed from Germany at the same port. Will the seed grow- ers of France be able to gather this months the mother roots ne- cessary to produce next year’s seed crop? Seed growing as Well as most other European, industries. will doubtless be much disorgan-q ized. and labor. and areas for planting. should the war continue into next year. may be most need- 'ed for the production of food crops. Canadian gardeners would do well therefore not to depend entirely on importations of garden vegetable seeds. With the consult- ing help of experts, who are work- ing with these crops at the .xperi- ment stations, anyone with aver- age -experience and intelligence would have no difficulty in growâ€" ing such seeds. Last vear our importations of beet and mangel seeds 11' ere 1,228.5. - 198 pounds, of W hich 45:2 721 pounds came from France. and 448.023 from Germany. We obtained 32.966 pounds of carrot seed from France. Of turnip seed we had 1:26.687 pounds from France, and 224,162 from Holland. Holland is also a large producer of bulbs and seeds of many kinds of field roots and vegetables, but her armies are reported to be mobilized as fully as though she were actually at war and an embargo imposed by her government prevents the exports of seed. Our field root crops may of course be partly dis- pensed with and substitutes used. Bv careful storing. even mature 1oots may be kept for planting next spring, and there is no need either to dispense with root crops or to pay extravagant prices for seed. There is no mystery about growing seed of mangels, carrots and turnips. If sound roots are planted in ordinary soil early in the spring. nature will do the rest. even to mixing the varieties, as with corn, if two or more var- ieties are planted together. So far as it is possible to deter-; mine. there is no fear of a pro-' nounced shortage of seeds for the next spring. It is the seed crOp of 1915 that must be reckoned with, and while growers in friend- ly or neutral countries may assure their customers of their ability to supply them. in the judgment of the writer, Canadian farmers, gar-l den-ers and consumers cannot af-‘ ford to take the risk. They should make a special effort this autumn and next year to produce a fair portion of their require- ments. The Honorable. .the MiniSter of Agriculture, has authorized the payment of subventions to-compe- tent, bona fide growers of select- ed stock seeds of field root and vegetable crops to be paid under regulations that may be had on application to the Seed Commis- sioner, Department of Agriculture, Ottawa. These subventions are sufficient to neutralize the ad- gvantag-e of European cheap labor. YOUR HAIR NEEDS PARISIAN Minin‘g Oats” ......;; SAGE. Feed Oats ............... It Quickly Removes Dandruff.

She was not a witness to it. but she heard all about it, and Tom was from that moment a little gOd to her. This is the story of how Tom distinguished himself. One night. hear- ing something in his room. he jumped over the footboard right into a man’s arms. Tom clinched with the robber. who dragged him out of the room. downstairs and through the door into the yard. During this moving scufiie the burglar made several attempts to put his hand to his hip pocket to get his revolver. but Gregory anticipated his design and foiled it. At last Greg- ory got his antagonist into a position where he oould himself draw othe re- volver. He did so. (-m-ked it and held the muzzle against his enemy’s ear. The feeling of the cold steel ln that po- sition had a soothing oi‘l'ect on the bur- glar. and he ceased to struggle. }reg~ ory shouted for a policeman. One came and took the watch to the station. Gregory. who was in his nightshirt. went back to bed. The next morning all the papérs con- tained accounts or‘ the capture. and Gregory. who had gone to sleep after the affair was over. woke up to find himself a hero. Indeed. he was a hero before breakfast It isn’t every man who can sit down to his morning meal with a newspaper before him com- mending him for his marvelous pluck. It is questionable if such acts are the result of pluck or the result of im- pulse. But when he went downtown to busi- ness he was surprised that every one he met took the same view of the mat- ter as the newspaper. That evening. having an engagement with Jennie Oglesby, who had been hesitating whether to bestow her affec- tions on him or a rival of his,~ she lionized the hero. Torn, taking advan- tage of the situation. proposed and was accepted then and there. Jennie was very proud of herself 1n winning so noble a man. She talked to everybody about her lover’s prowess, telling the story again and again. Then when Tom fell ill and it was feared he would die she vowed that if he did she would never marry, for she could not expect to find a man who had shown such evidence of bravery. But Tom recovered, and the two were married. Mrs. Gregory appeared to have but one pride in her husband, and that was his bravery. While other ro- mantic features of matrimony were worn away by the hard dint of fact, Tom Gregory’s display of courage seemed to grow in luster in the eyes of his wife. Tom was not much or a money maker, nor did he occupy any prominent position in the affairs of the nation. But there was one thing in him to be proud ofâ€"his bravery. True, his tackling a burglar was gradually forgotten by the community, or, rath- er, in the constant change of its mem- bers those who had heard of. it were being replaced by those who had not. One person was not likely ever to un- dervalue itâ€"his wife. One evening when Tom was going home from business he heard cries in a house he passed. He listened, and they were repeated. Some one was begging piteously for mercy. The door stood open. and Tom went in. A man was beating a crippled boy. Tom told the man to desist and received only a cursing for his pains, whereupon Tom struck him with his fist, landing him upon the floor. Then he told the brute that he would look in occasionally as he passed and if he ever caught him in treating the cripple again he would give him what he gave the boy. .. He also said that he would be back during the evening to investigate the case. Tom told the story to his wife at the dinner table. He was not interest- ed in his Wife’s vn vion of his prow- ess and'did not lows at her to learn how she received the account of his protection of the cripple. Shortly aft- er dinner he took up his hat to go out. “To find out all about the case or that poor little cripple boy." was the reply. “It may be necessary for me to separate the child from the man. At any rate. I don’t propose that the boy shall suffer any, moreof his bru- “Bfefore you go." said Mrs. Gregory. "1 want to show you something up- “There’s something In the closet. I don’t know 11' it is a cat or a rat or what it is," she said. Tom went to the closet and looked in. Hearing the door shut behind him and a click he turned and pulled on the knob. He was locked in. No answer. “Jennie. let me out!” “Not unless you’ll promise some- “What Is It?" "I want you to promise me you won’t go back to quarrel with that horrid “Good gracious! What’s the matter with you ‘2" ' “You might get hurt.” Half an hour later the hero of the burglar episode was released after what was a virtual promise to let the little cripple suffer. “Where are you going?” asked his “Come and see." She led himtoaroomonthethml “What is it 'I” But he broke his promise. She Loved Him For His Courage By LOUISE B.
