Minnesota gained more than five million bushels of No. one Northern wheat as a result of mixing the wheat of lower grades during the crop year ending August 81. 1913, according to figures just made public by th������ state railroad and warehouse commission. -' ti' r? Practically all of 4he inferior grades lost in amount in the .^levators as a result of the gain made? in tbe No. one Northern. During the year the elevators ."received 17,566,059 bushels, of No. One Northern.. These samo elevators skipped out 17,866,598 bushels,, and on Sept. 1 still had on hand 5,- "06,218 bushels. The total number of bushels of No. one Northern the elevators bad and shipped out - 23,172,816. Tho tot.'. average amounted to 5,606,757. The grain Avas purchased, from the farmers on the grades" that it went into the elevators and Avas naturally sold for tbo grade tli* t it came out. The profit to tlie terminal elevarost during the past year was enormous according to those interested in the grain business. x Much of the number two Northern that came in during -tbe last, crop year went to swell the No. 1 Northern in the elevators.

This amount bad been raised to No. 1 Northern. The same story is told in the case of No. three Northern. The total amount received bv the elevators was 3,288,412 bushels. By Aug. 31, a total of 3,024,904 bushels had been shipped out and . there was on hand 52,- 752 bushels. The shortage here was 210,756 bushels? all of Avhich had gone to make up the liigher grades^ With No. four Northern the .same proposition is clear. The amount received was 15,246 ^nd the amount shipped out Avas only 3,52_. There Avas none on hand Aug. 31. The shortage in this grade was 11,723. No Grade Shortage In the No Grade classification the Suortage is larger than in any other. The total amount o������ No Grade wheat received was 4,212,150. Tha amount shipped out Avas 1,210,295, and the amount on hand 282,954, The shortage was 2,718,901 bushels. Thero Avas "an average in the rejected class of ,131,522 bushels. The amount received was 886,185; and the amount shipped out was 912,831, and the amount on hand was 104,876.

This outcry is all a fake and is made for the purpose of concealing some facts which are very damaging to the Liberal party. The facts are these: ��������� During the year 1911, the last year when Sir Wilfrid Lauricr's protege, W. L. Mac kenzie King, .was* Minister of Labor, he had compiled a Statistical report of comparative prices throughout Canada covering a period of years from 1890 to 1909. This report shows that:��������� During the six years of Conservative government. (1890-1896) prior to Lauricr's accession to power, tbe prices. of food products were gradually reduced, reaching the-iv lowest point in 1896-97. From the very first year of Lauricr's rule, prices began lo soar, and the history of the Liberal regime is one steady climb iu the price of food products, the highest point being reached during the last few ye.irs of the Liberal administration.

British Columbia in 1911 was credited with a population of 392,480, and has serven cabinet ministers who were paid #4,000 a year.

CITY OF ORATORS, liondon of a Sunday Is Crowded With* Pablric Speakers. 1 "London le a city of orators," writes Harry Furniss in The Windsor Magazine/' There is more public speaking to the acre,-especially On Sundays, in this city than in any other. To get- the full benefit of this boon, go to Hyde Parte on a fine Sunday. By selecting-a location advantageously it is possible to listen simul-' Janeously to lectures on. Fruiterian-' ism, Socialism, and Christian Science, besides picking tip valuable fragments of discourse on' Esoteric Buddhism and Mormonism. A movement is.on foot to establish a fund for providing Hyde Park orators with voice lozenges���������a much needed char- ' ity. There ls also another society, for providing tbem with muzzles, but this -by..the. way.. Visitors to London ! who wish to orate themselves are at! liberty to do se. Stand at a corner of j a street talking in a large voice���������-it is : immaterial what you ,taik about���������and a crowd will soon gather round you and as long as you go on orating, nothing but a policeman or a collecting box will move them on." On. the subject of mommoth shops, he says: "/There hre several big buildings in London called stores' or mammoth shops. The idea is to gather under one roof all that the heart of man���������and man, in this instance, embraces woman-���������can desire. If they have a fault, they are too large. The other day I met my friend George,' with his wife and son and heir: they were -bound for a certain mammoth' shop. By invitation I accompanied tbem. We entered, and left George, ; junior, in a room devoted to such encumbrances, and parted from Mrs. - George, whose objective was gloves,' while bis was cigars. As they intended to buy a lamp-shade, a purchase needing joint selection, we arranged to meet, in the lamp department. We parted lightly, little guessing���������But I anticipate. George and I strolled away, and some time later tracked the cigar department to its lair. His purchase made, we strolled onwards, seeking lamps. This entail- j ed using the lift for the thi?d. ilms- \ for, curiously enough, no two articles; one wants are everbn the same floor.! The lamp department took a deal of finding. Again and again, as we traversed department after department, we seemed to sight the promised land,? ���������-.but mirage like, it turned to Iron? mongery or Haberdashery or Garden Requisites. It" was like the story of Diogenes inverted, two (I trust) honest men seeking a lamp. At last, with the kind assistance of a pageboy, whom we commandeered as guide, we located it. We found ourselves in a wilderness of lamps. But not with the aid of all their radiance ���������for most of them were lighted��������� could we discern the familiar figure of Mrs. George. We inquired for her in vain. After waiting a little, we went for the gloves, or, rather to look for her. In brief, we picked.up ,-jrhe ( . trail in the:glove department, some , Way between gloves and lamps. We. heard of her in perfumery t just miss ed her in lamps, doubled back for gloves, missed her again. Went to fetch George, junior, but she had been before, us. Hours passed. George's hair began to turn gray under the strain. We set all the resources of civilization���������I mean the stores���������into activity, and so by this time had Mrs. George, tired of being a grass, or rather, a stores widow.

Manitoba Indians Pa6s Resolution to Guard Against Firo. Probably nowhere..else in Canada la there a stronger co-operative spirit In forest lire protection than has been developed by the Chief Fire Ranger of the Dominion Government among tho rangers, Indians, trnppors and packers oi th" Northern Manitoba Firs District. The worl? &tnong tlie Indiana nxa been especially beneficial, for in the past they were notoriously careless, especially in leaving camp- fires burning. Ikit, largely owing to tho energy and initiative of Mie Chief Ranger, the attitude ot th. Indians has '.'eon c!xm!***ed from on������ of indifference to one of keen interest, bo much so that thnt official writes: The conservation of the forests has become ns red-hot a topic out here as real estate in the West. Recently, when treaty money was being paid to the Indians at Cross Lake, a special council meeting oC severity-five to eight** Indians was called, at which an anlH_aU discussion of forest five protection took place. The Chief Ranger writes:��������� While the meeting was In progress, the Indian Agent and party came, but to tho surprise oJL many the meeting held interest till, by a standing vote all assorted their willmgnesB to help in the protection ol the forests from, tire. The chief and councillors wished me Jro convey to tht Director ot Forestry at Ottawa this, their resolu- itiou. . Whenever posfiiblo such councils are attended by the Chief Ranger, and all Indians promising to co-operate with the Dominion rangers are presented with a metr*. badge o_ office. The most intelligent of tihe Indians are engaged as regular flr������- rangers By tlie Dominion Government and do very conscientious worlc. Although the pafroi is -difficult, being done wholly by canoe, and the weather Is often inclement, the eighteen iire-rangers in this district average j about eighteen miles a day? including Sundays, throughout the summer. During the whole season, no serious damage was done by fire althougli many incipient forest "fires were extinguished, a fact that speaks well for the efficiency of the patrol and tlie value of tho co-operative spirit inculcated in the Indians.

Within the past two years ������te_s have been taken to re-, store the building and render it safe for public worship, and under the enthusiastic assistance of the present rector, Rev. A. B. Famey, thework has-been "well and truly", done. Built at a time when all buildings were the P?c-d.tsct of men's hands alone, tbe old brick church bas stood remarkably well the strain of wind and weather for a century.

One bf their ideas was tbat the preacher ahould not use notes for bis sermons. His words should flow solely by inspiration from his lips. Consequently, there was consternation and alarm when a new preacher came who was reported to use notes.

A few^ moments later, amidst mad cheers from the excited crowd, he had touched the plate with O'Hara, done likewise himself, and was carrying his w-pparently unconscious comrade to the bench. Not- withBta ding the violent protestations of the Chatham players, the umpire ruled that both scores would, count, and as tho score was thus a tie, ordered the teams to play on. And now. came the most dramatic scene of all. Young O'Hara was dead. Awed witb tbe announcement tbe crowd stood around with bared beads, while the village doctor worked hard to restore, if possible, the young player to life. O'Hara had sacrificed bis life *that his team might win.

The most frivolous and conspicuous people are often seen clothed tn deepest habiliments of vtroe, while those wbo really mourn may wear anything they please, as the sorrow Is within themselves, and its outward and visible manifestation is only -to defend them from unpleasant approaches.

Of course a great crowd was present to hear the Conservative leader, and whon ho entered the building there was a terrific crush of people trying to seo him. In tbe throng was a woman with an infant. Sho was struggling desperately to get to the front, and in her excitement sho cried out: "I will see Sir John!" The exclamation caught his ear, and getting a glimpse of tho Hiioakoir through tho intervening people, ho divided tho crowd with kis hands, and called back In answer: "And you shall seo Sir John!" In a momont ho was at her side and tho prido of tho mother can be bettor imagined than described when he adzed tho baby and hell It in hin arms like a fond uncle.

The vexed auestlon of the hot bath, which was condemned by Dr. For- j tescue Fox at the International Con- i gress of Medicine, was discussed by j _ much-traveled 'alneologlst who has inquired into the bathing habits of many peoples in the course of his wanderings. "England is the most bath-ridden country in the world since "the days of ancient Rome." he said. "Undoubtedly we have too many hot baths. Too much hot-bath lounging and washing are bad for the skin and for the general constitution, and are generally a sign of laziness, self-indulgence and effeminacy. The modern easily tired man is becoming a slave; to his hot bath, where, with the aid of an adjustable electric light, a book-rest and a box of cigarettes he evaporates his strength. "Other countries are much more moderate in their bathing habits, but in England unlimited baths are the ruler-daily or twice daily without fail, and at other times when there is nothing else to do. In German middle-class houses the bath is regulated to a nicety, conformable with h,ealtb and cleanliness. Not only the frequency but also the temperature of the bath is studied. A thermometer is found in most bathrooms. "In Italy the hot bath is regarded as even less of a necessity. A girl friend was going to an Italian school in Naples, and found on the hall notice board on the first day of term the following order: " 'AU-girls wishing to have a bath this terra are requested to write their names here.' "America ls a good second to England ln the bath obsession, and probably beats us for the luxury and variety of the fancy baths indulged In. "Recognition of .the evil of overindulgence in bot water Is to be seen ln a curious old custom still to be found among the Older miners in South Wales. Some ot these men take their hot tub In the kltchon with tbe greatest regularity after work, but they wash every part of the body except tbe spine, owing to tho idea that the hot water takes the backbone out of them. "The Ideal Is probably a woolily hot bath soak ot ten minutes, at a terapornturo of 98 dog. to 101 deg. Fabronholt, and a dally cold tr topld splash bath aftor a previous wash." ���������������������������"I A Bring In Your Renewal of Subscription to the r,RF.STIlN III VIIW Dollar Doubters Our ClaMlffcMf Want Ad*, far* r*������l ������������*lar 4������ubt������r*. |n th** iMtHtr and v.������rvou*i ���������n*rgy ������h������y will ��������������������������������� V**������ many (lm������* thalr, ���������mall oa������l fey fcrlt-iglnff ta your ri<M������r wha/ you r*������iiilr*, whMlnr It to* ���������melarit h*lp, a tfMlratolo ttmrr*wmr for misrptum ������������������ah, a pa* tltton ������r a <tom������������tl������.

It does away with the need of ���������;���������:."��������� y.'''; 'a large pastura and Insures a full milk supply during summer droughts. Fodder preseryed Is a concrete silo ls safe from fire and waste and retains the maximum food value. The cost of building a si 10 with a capacity of 150 tons need not exceed $300. It varies according to the supply of labor. Concrete costs little more than wood and is so much better !n every way that it Is confidently recommended. No fodder is relished so much by stock as slluge. Its iufluence la beneficial to tbe animal system, is invigorating and prevents cripples and impaction. Succulent silage makes for good health and heavy milk flow. It ls equally good for poultry and hogs. Corn ls the most suitable of all crops for silage. lt should bo harvested when tbe bottom leaves are drying off and the _rn!_ is doughy and glassing. Without hurrying, the work of filling the silo, the best method is to ensile the crop as Boon as it ls harvested, cutting the ft-ilks nnd enhn Into nmnll bits.. The grain Is more or less macerated in the cutter. Tho fodder thus treated is carried by means of an clcVutcr cr blower, which should deliver tho material as near tbe center of the silo aa possible. This may be done by tho aid of a bag chute attached to tho mouth bf tho elevatoi or the blower. The labor of distributing tho fodder ts thus minimized, nnd an even supply of the material will bo distributed all over tho silo. If tho foddbr bo allowed to fall direct from the mouth of tho conveyor tho heaviest parts will fall on ono sldo and tho lightor parts on tbe other. Tho sllago will not settlo evenly, nud loss will eventuate. To nsBlMt In closo packing lt Is absolutely essential to tram plo tbo product all over tho silo. Trampling tho sides or nround tho edges Is not Hiitllclont, for with tho shrinking of tho con tor the ontor edges creep toward It and ii wny from tho wails, thus allowing access of ulr and con uequeut loss. The center Bhould al ways bo kept a little higher than the outer edges. The rate of lining should bo six to eight ri*i������t por day. Quicker filling than this may result Ip gon orating too much heat, tn which ciibu tho sllnge Is llublc to decompose. After the tillo has been filled the fodder should bo covered with a light framework or coarao sheet and weight cd down.

It Is advisable to give horses small quantities only of silage: otherwise there may be trouble from stomach derangements. Limit tho amount fed to. a few pounds per day.
