They are most uselful in moist to tather dry soil. Extended droughts with a conâ€" sequent ash éry soil and withering root hairs means a serious reduction in these essentials for tree growth. In a general way the number of leaves and the vigor of growth is proporlionâ€" al to the abundance of tiny root hairs. Protect them. 6e One of the major evils of the closely elipped lawn is that it reduces the supply of humus and brings about conâ€" ditions favorable to a rapid drying of the surface soil. Thisâ€"results in a greatly reduced number of root hairs and a corresponding lack of vigor in trees. It is more pronounced in wet soils, where the feeding roots are necessarily near the surface, owing to their inability to grow in saturated goli _ A good root system means a good tree. Feeding produces abundâ€" ant root hairs and vigorous trees, Drought Warning Given Drought injury, as has been pointed out, is most severe in low, poorly drained soils where the water table is mear the surface. Even a relatively small reduction in the soil moisture means the exposing of roots, accusâ€" tomed to nearâ€"saturated conditions, to the drying out so common in soils which are practically dry. These efâ€" fects also are very evident on light soils where the lay of the land favors a rapid runâ€"off and the texture of the soil is such as to permit the ready esâ€" eape of the water. In addition, there are literally thousands of trees, many of them magnificent specimens, growâ€" Ing in relatively shallow soil or where the drying out process is accelerated by closely clipped lawns and the conâ€" sequent absence of the normal amount of humus. a:'ufl; and two holes burnt i back!" not found in the larger parts, useful though they are as support to the trunk, but in the minute feeding roots stretching out into new soil and abâ€" sorbing mineral solutions and molsâ€" ture. It is well known that agricultural erops resist drought much more sucâ€" cessfully when in a rick soil, tem, a poorly developed top and slow, unsatisfactory growth. A reasonably fertile soil with a moderately uniform supply of moisture and an ample feedâ€" ing area makes possible an abundant root development, a luxuriant top and rapid growth, All gradations are to be be seen between the two extremes. Fine Root Called Most Vital Strange though it may seem, the more vital, active part of the root is Root development is limited largely by the character of the soil, the availâ€" able moisture and the extent of the feeding area. â€"A heavy, impervious, saturated soil means a weak root sysâ€" e e me Emt Roots develop with the stem and branches, or even a little before. Thisg is easily seen in seedlings, ‘The root grows downward and the top upward, and both develop at first from the store of nutriment in the seed. The roots are of equal importance with the tops. They usually extend as far from the trunk as the branches.

But the Greens triumphed with a score of 6 to 4, more than half of their points contributed by the Whites on faults. Then the players assembâ€" led before the grand stand in military formation, aecepted the ovation with gallant bows in unison, replaced the pancake hats on battered heads and started .the march through the city to the starting point. The Greens led the white ox proudly, while the Whites followed with their standard furled. The innanzi, fifteen to a team, faced one another in the centre‘of the field in groups of fives; they were akin to our tackles. Behind them were five sconciatori, or fronts, four datori inâ€" nanzi, or halfâ€"backs and guarding each goal were three datori addietro, or fullbacks. In the old days, the play ran from sundown until midnight on a field lighted by flaimbeaux. Now it is limâ€" ited to an hour of solid running, kickâ€" ing and roughâ€"housing.

The #andy floor was studded with wooden pegs marking the startâ€" ing position of each group of players. Why the men broke up into groups no vne seemed to knowâ€"not even the ofâ€" ficials; it was just tradition. The object of the game was to kick, throw or place the ballâ€"about the size of a basketball with the bounce of a golf ballâ€"over a threeâ€"foot barâ€" rier and under a wire net three feet above the barrier, both of which stretched the width of the field, It was not half so easy as it looked, for it the ball went over the wire net among the spectators, half a point was gained by the goal defenders. pects vere paid to the populace amid fanfares of brass and the rattle of drums. ‘The players, resplendent in silken jackets with satin trim and bloomersâ€"or doublets,.if you insistâ€" and light . running shoes without #pikes, maintained a military demeaâ€" nor.

FASHION HINT Sm l in tms B ragnn LNRONREG TNAAA CT TT OA NAORN . hiz BM RMK B nc ts m a in During the past féw years the Uniâ€" versity of Toronto and other centres have been making a thorough study of the possibilities of ling as a food, as fish meal or fertilizer and as a source of liver oil, From an economic viewâ€" point, of course, the use of ling as food is the most important, and until recently the consensus of opinion on the North American continent has been against it, possibly on account of the fish‘s forbidding appearance. The fact remains, however, that in Europe the ling is considered to be a "delicately flavored fish" with an excelâ€" lent market, and the liver and roe have always been looked upon as deâ€" licacies. In the United States, through a campaign conducted by the Bureau of Fisheries, a market has been esâ€" tablished, and during the war it was obtainable in Canada, but as soon as the scarcity of meat came to an end no further attempt to continue the marâ€" ket was made. In 1928 some interesting experiâ€" ments in the cooking of ling weore made by the Department of Household Science of the University of Toronto, and the outcome was that fried ling was found to be "palatable, tender, juicy, and had a delicate flavor." Fish loaft made from boiled ling was "Jjust as edible ‘as that made from cod." Fish cakes had "a fresh, delicate flayâ€" or and were as good as, or superior to those made from cod." As a result of careful experiments ling has been found to be a palatable fish, and if a market can be secured after an educational campaign pointâ€" ing out its value and suitability as food, this would doubtless be the best way of ridding Canada‘s lakes of exâ€" cessive numbers of the species, to the advantage of lake trout, with which it competes directly, and of more desirâ€" able species, such as pike, pikeâ€"perch, herring and whitefish, upon which it preys. ‘The ling (Lota Maculosa Le Sueur) | is the only member of the cod family found in fresh water. It is widely disâ€" tributed throughout the Great Lnkes' and is also found in the other large lakes of Canada. Its average weight! is somewhere in the neighborhcod of from two to five pounds, but specl-l mens weighing 10 pounds are not unâ€" common,. It may be caught in the same manner as whitefish, herring and l lake trout, viz., with gill nets, hooks and pound nets. | Many Valuable Uses Found for Fish of Ugly Appearance The value of production of the fishâ€" eries of Canada last year was $47,798,â€" 920, th‘s total being made up of $41,â€" 451,077 from sea fisheries and $6,346,â€" 943 from inland fisheries. In this conâ€" nection, and with a view to augment: ing the variety of edible fish caught in Canada, the possibility of establishing a market for the large quantity of ling or burbot found in the Dominion has been engaging the attention of the Game and Fisheries Department of the Ontario Government.

A Food and Fertilizer A Dog and a Half "The prospect for iutu~ marketing of ling looks bright, and without doubt this fish can be tarned into a source of profit to the fisherman. Its edible qualities can no longer be disputed, and as an added source of profit the liver oil might be manu{lactured «while the liver itself may find a profitable markot. The Cinderella of the fish world, disguised because of its homely cppearance, should take its proper place among the recognized profitable commercial fish." In the above words, Mr. Hugh D. Branion, M.A., of the University of Toronto, sums up the result of his inâ€" vestigations into the profitable use of ling or burbot. These show how the livers may be prepared as soups, toasts, liver loaf, and as fillings for tomatoes. Invest!â€" gations into the effect of ling livers in dietaries, with particular regard to anaemia, are being carried on in the Toronto General Hospital. Ling Liver Oil Since ling is a relative of cod, it was considered that the liver oil might serve medicinally as cod liver oil. Oil was, therefore, extracted, and the yield, color and taste were foupd to compare favorably with cod liver oil. lon. All druggists. 25¢ & Dr. Carter‘s Little Liver Pills are no vgiclghnnve.
