F., of the University of Toronto, in his paper dealt with the Dominion forest reserves. He showed that in 1906 the Parliament of Canada established 21 forest reserves. Six are in Manitoba, four in Sukuehe‘ wan, three in Alberta and cight in the strip forty miles wide in British Columâ€" bia, known as the railway belt. These areas were set aside (1) To provide lumâ€" bar, fuel, ties, poles and other forest products required for the settlement of the country and the development of its resources; (2) To protect the head waâ€" ters of streams and regulate the flow of water in them for irrigation, transporâ€" tation and industrial purposes; (3) To afford a natural shelter for the various kinds of birds, fish and game. ie FOREST RESERVES. These reserves embrace areas as folâ€" lows: Manitoba, 3,575 square miles; Sasâ€" katchewan, 740; Alberta, 185; British Columbia, 890. Total 5,391 square miles. It would nq:in a special act of Parliaâ€" ment to withdraw any of the land from these reserves for settlement or other pugooe-, so that here is a great opporâ€" tunity for the Government to protect and improve this property. t _ n 2 k4 ui) .k ales 4 sas. companies as s0Om With the recently schools at the U# and the University tor Knetchel and assistan .

Ross then took up in detail the |â€" Adifferent â€" reserves . in the three . proâ€" || vinees, showing the location, size and character of each, and mentioning the problems connected with them. He noted that, the rainfall â€" being . only about oneâ€"third that of Ontario and the average velocity of the wind almost exactly twice as great, it is a difficult matter to fight fire in the western reserves. The only Way in â€"which they can ‘be protected is to patrol them â€" summer and winter; to have efficient | fire guards and have roads that will enable the rangers to get quickly from one part of the reserve to another. _ Last year 150 miles of romds was made along the boundaries and . through different parts of the reserves. This work should be conâ€" tinued. Last year twentyâ€"five squatters . were removed from the Turtle Mounâ€" tain Reserve in Manitoba â€" and given land elsewhere. The same is true of Riding Mountain Reserve, from which 196 â€" squatters . have been _ removed. The â€" removal of these required great tact on the part of the officers of the Forestry Branch, but without their reâ€" moval it would have been folly to attempt to place the â€"reserves under management.

These screenings vary a good deal in ?m.lity. Thus an analysis recently made 0 wheat screenings showed about 30 per cent. of flax and shrunken cereal, 15 per cent. of foxtails, 8 per cent. of bimr;eeds and pl%weeds, 15 per cent. of weed seeds of other species and 21 per cent. of dust, broken seed and sand. hamel L Nswd DFORCM SUENM MR MAMUC Sow rye for a cover crop on any land that is idle and not to be used for any other crop this fall.

The colt should have a variety of feeds, so that it may build up the variâ€" ous tissues of its body. Clover hay and wheat bran contain necessary mineral, matter for the building of bone.

The value of sulphate of ammonia 8 a fertilizer was demonstrated in some German tests where marsh lands were fertiliized with nitrate of soda and sulâ€" phate of ammonia.

Strawberry Planting. > bew Planting strawberries is a bit of fine lis art. You cannot crowd them into the| °° ground as you would cabbage plants, or thrust them down as rapidly as you do| 8I raspberries, but you must make a hole w about half as large again as the roots of | t the plant, when spread out in all diree:| £ tions; in the centre of the hole let the b dirt be mounded, so that when the plant b is set on the top of that it will be a litâ€" f< tle higher than the level of the ground. d Spread the roots over this and brush el the hole half full of dirt; now erowd down tightly until the erown of the plant is exactly level with the soil; then fill the hole full of soil lightly pressed,| e and brush over the top dirt not pressed | q at all. The plant should now set exactâ€" | e ly level with the surrounding dirt, and | p the reason for this is that t%xe runners| p when starting should have nothing to | } hinder them. The ecrowding down is an | ( important matter with all plants, and | j the spread of the roots is vitally importâ€" | 4 ant with the strawherry. The loose dirt on top will serve as & mulch to reâ€"| £ tain moisture in the soil, and gather it | , from the air. As soon as the bed is finâ€" | . ished there should be a top dressing or mulch of fine, rich compost,. I suppose | . that most of the planters would girect . you to use commercial fertilizers, If you insist on doing this you will find direcâ€" tions in the bulletins of many of the ex{wriment. stations. rrigation is more essential for the strawberry than for any other member | of the Rosaceae family. A small bed :\ near the house can be attended to with | little difficulty, but a small plot near ; | the barn can often be watered with hose ° | from the barn well. For a larger plot 1 ‘ | believe that tile drains offer the best { method. Distribute the water through the fields in pipes or troughs with small | y holes in them. A stopeock should be | provided to shut off the water or turn ~| it on at pleasure. The tile should be "| deep enough to escape the cultivator and the plowâ€"not less than two and & " | half feet below the surface. If water runs all the time you can block up the lower end when you wish to have it perâ€" meate the strawhberry bed. Threeâ€"inch tile is about what you want. The strawâ€" berry is a great lover of water, and it not seldom happens that just as the crop is full of promise a few dry days ruin it. If watered by hand a hole should be made by the side of each plant, and not less than a fuall quart of water poured slowly in, until the ground is saturated; then brush dry dirt over the hole to retain the moisture and preâ€" vent caking of the soil. One such waterâ€" ing will last three Or four days. Sprink ling a strawberry bed does more harm than good, unless rer-.at,ed every fem hours. This plan is a together too seTl ous a job for a large bed, and I recom mend that you be provided with under fround tiles.â€"KE. P. Powell in the Out ng Magazine for June. Probably on the Team.

The standard specifications for Philaâ€" delphia bridges requires that the conâ€" crete shall be a 1â€"3â€"6 composition. That is, the proportions are by measurement one part cement, three parts coarse sand or gravel or stone screenings and six parts crushed stone. Cleveland, Ohio, possesses what is perâ€" haps the very flattest concrete bridge in the world. This bridge has three hinges of plates and angles. For boaring surâ€" faces plates and cast iron are employed. The hinges were greased before being put in place to avoid rust. At the joints a half inch of pure «asphalt separates the concrete, The compusition of the conâ€" crete is a %, 345 mixture. Between abutment hinges the span is over 86 feet and the rise of the arch above these hinges is only 5 feet 1% inches. The Walnut Lane bridge in Philadelâ€" phia is one of the most |trikinge examâ€" ples of concrete construction to be found anywhere in the world, says Cassier‘s Magazine. _ Interest focuses, of course, upon the central arch. This consists of two ribs, each 18 feet wide at the crown and somewhat wider at the skewback. The depth of each rib at the crown is 5% teet. The clear span is 283 feet, which is a longer span tï¬au that of any other concrete arch in America,. The roadway is about 150 feet above the surface of the waters of hte Wissahickon Creek.
