THE \VESTERN FAIR, LONDON The Western Fair, London’s popular agricultural exhibition, will be held this year from Sep- tember 10th to 18th It is consider- ed by the management that this year, above all others, should be I i , > I the one when extra efforts must be put forth to make the exhibi- tion a great success: therefore with assistance given by the Gov- ernment the board of directors have decided to make a cash ad- dition to the prize list of $3,000. Good as it was before, this will certainly make London‘s prize list very attractive. The list is now in the hands of the printer and will soon be ready for distribution. Thousands of advertising maps and hangers have been sent throughout the country during the past couple of weeks an- nouncing the dates, and ar- rangements are being made as quickly as possible to ensure ex- hibitors and visitors alike that this year’s exhibition will be the best ever held in London. Any in- formation regarding the exhibi- tion will be gladly given on appli- cation to the secretary. A. M. Hunt, London, Ontario. , .. . NEWS OF THE U.S.A. m CHRONICLE. The Red Cross Column 2 j Amongst the many hospitals Where our sick and wounded sol- diers are being brought back to health, there is perhaps no insti- tution which will appeal to Can- adians more than the Duchess of Connaught hospital at Cliveden, a beawtiful country house along the upper reaches of the Thames, which was given to the British War Office by Waldorf Astor. The covered tennis court, nob- ably the finest in the country} with its aI-p-endagee, out' 17' the golf links and close to the foot- ball grounds, Within the screen of the woods, has been turned into a hospital building capable of holding over 100 patients. This accommodation has since been increased to 500 beds. The follOwinzg interesting desâ€" cription is taken from a London Iv“;- “What between the donors of the building and the Canadian Red Cross Society, this hospital is a model. The great height of the building and its :glass roof insure the wards being flooded with light and air. The operating room is one of which any hospital 'might be proud. 'The X-r-ay room though small, has received high praise. The laboxatory, the mediâ€" cal stores, the zdisinfector and oth- er features of the equipment are all of the best that can be got. I It should be remembered that this hospital is a Canadian inâ€" ’stitution- in every way. It is mannâ€" Eed by Canadian doctors and nurs- es by Canadian non-commission- ed officers and men: it receives Canadian wounded, and is supâ€" !ported and kept up by Canadian 'money .It only remains for the Canadian people as a whole to ’give their whole hearted financial :support to this Canadian hospital ;\\'here our fellow countrymen will :lbe brought back to health and : strength. “The staff consists of 20 officers, 38 nurses and 120 non-commis- sioned officers and men, with many female cooks and servants. All this will mean a considerable outlay of money.’i While the public is generously answering the appeal for tobacco for the Canadian soldiers at the front, a very large amount is still needed and will be needed continually as the war progressâ€" es Tobacco in tins is specially welcome, as are cigarettes of all kinds. Tobacco in packages, a large number of which have reached the head office of , the Canadian Red Cross Society in Toronto, is not very welcome, as it soon becomes :dried up and al- =most unfit for use by the time it arrives at the front. There can be :no doubt of the importance of tobacco in the present crisis. Even those who op- pose its use as a matter of prin- ciple will admit rthis. Tobacco has played its part in every War, from ‘Waztverloo to the Balkans. It is playing a tremendous part in this, the greatest war in. history. Tobacco is a solace and has won and lost battles. It is stated that smokers are far more immune than non-smokers to “Occipital Cramps” and other 'neturasthenic ailments caused by the terrible or- deal of shell fire. Strange a.s.it may seem, there Is a greater consumption of tobacco bv those who have nothing to do with fighting in War. The war throughout the world has stimuv Lated men who, roused from the hmmdxrum of their regular lives consume more tobacco when such anexcitement as a great war ms on» The consumption is greatex now b-caaus-e this war touches more men than any War since his- tory began - .. .g n ‘ 'vâ€" vv â€" wâ€"v Nothing is bettem than tobacco to relieve the necessary odium of convalescence, when the soldier. too weak as wet for any active nhvsiczal employment {ipde tbe ___w‘ -"U _.___. time hing heavily on his hands. Further, no greater act of charity could be performed than the sending of tobacco to prisoners whose life at the best can scarcely be considemed one of pleasure. In short, those who know anything about men under nervous tension know that tobacco is ewtetn more Of anecessity than food. It is to be hoped that the public will think geiaerously of tliis gutter. In this time of war it is gratify- in-g to know of industries which keep up and even increase their rate of production. This latter is the case with the pulpwood and wood-pulp industry of Canada. The consumption of pulpwood in Canada increased nearly ten and a half per cent. in 1914 as com- pared with 1913. Since 1910 the increase has been 104 per cent. [The 66 active pulp mills in Canada in 1914 consumed 1,224,376 cords of pulp wood valued at 88089568- While in addition to this, 972,508 cords vaflJuedat $6,680,480 were ex- ported in an unmanufactured state. Canadians will be gratified to know that the proportion of nulpwood made into pulp in Canada to that exported in the iraw state is increasing, thus giv- ing more employment in Canadian mills. In 1914, 55. 7 per cent. of all pnlpwood produced in Canada was made into pulp in Canada and 44.3 pew cent. was exported. chiefly to the United States, 1n raw or cordwood state. A few years ago only one-third of the pulpwood produced in. Canada was made into pulp here. The proportion of pulp made bv the chemical processes is increas- ing ,as compared with pulp pro- duced by the ground-wood pro- cess. This is ogra-tifyin'g because the pulp thus produced IS worth about tuo and one-half times as much as the groundâ€"wood pulp. The chemical processes also per- mit a Wider range in the selec- tion of timber for pulping purpos- es, an important factor in bring- ing into use as many as possible {of our native Canadian trees. CANADIAN MILLS INCREASE The above and all other facts now known about pulpwood and woodâ€"pulp production in Canada are contained in the bulletin “Forâ€" est Products of Canada. 1914: Pul-pwood” which has been comâ€" piled by the Forestry Branch 01 the Department of the Interior and which has been sent t. the printer for issue. as soon as possi- ble. Copies of the bulletin. may be had free upon its completion and those interested in the pulp and paper industry who desire, in the meantime, information upon anv particular point will receive the same by Writing to the Director of Forestry, Department of the Interior Ottaua. How many ever think of the moon when they sow grain, plant cucumbers, kill pigs, boil soap or the thousand and one things we come in contact with every day '? Some wouldn’t plant their potaâ€" toes only when the moon is just the right size, and getting either larger or smaller, according to the fancies and whims of the per- son governed by such notions. We never consider the state of the moon, but we know some do. We believe the moon has certain in- fluences. It is believed that bv,its gravity it affects the ocean and has to do with the tides, giving ulsthe big ones and the little ones. according to its relative position in relation to the sun and other bodies. Scientific men have written on this phenomenon, but we have yet to see a scientific work which teaches that a pig killed at one time in the moon will~be all pork when it’s cooked Fand at another time it will all [’turn to gravy. . It was believed at one time that mental conditions of persons of unsound mind were influenced to some extent by the moon. and the word “lunaâ€"tic” is a historical relic of the belief in that now exploded theory. It 'does happen that persons mentally deranged are worse at some times than others, but we have never been assured'on good authority .that these bad spells occur periodically in~any one of the moon’s phases. As to the proper time to plant certain Seeds, the~seedsmen, so fa; as we have noticed, never mention the moon in their instructions about how and when to plant THE MOON AND PLANTING THE STANDARD BANK . 4mm Established over Fox-{y-one Years TheA,B,CofBanking You Will Find Us 1 Efficient. 131 We solicit your account in our ‘ SAVINGS DEPARTMENT a ASSETS OVER $48,000,000 OF CANADA a}- my "a v? {mix-9?,“ 3%: Mikflfié IHE DURHAM EHHBNIELE 18 PUBLISHED VERY THURSDAY MORNING At the Chronicle Printing House, Gamma.
