The ueatlon of tbe high cost of living having been.

From the traces which were left behind It is thought that boys were responsible. germ laden milk. This is a national loss of vary serious magnitude, aad one that demands the immediate application of preventive measures. The greatest danger occurs during the hot summer montbs. Milk constitutes a most favourable medium for tbe development of germ life. Two main points, therefore, require special attention. (1) Absolute cleanliness should characterise every p*art of the process of producing and distributing milk. In this way germs may be largely kept out of the milk. (2)By holding the milk at low temperature the germ life that does gain access to It can be kept from developing. Modified Milk'for Infanta. The preparation of modified milk for Infants in cities, is usually not a good commercial investment, although it has been produced # at a profit in, some large American cities. But the saving of child life Is a matter ���������of vital importance to the municipalities and to the country, and If private interests will not undertake this -service, ^then the municipal1 authorities mtt*t|tf they are to escape the lgno- minojprof posterity. AwBi������her: of Canadian cities are already partly supplied either by private dtisens or by the direction of the Municipal Boards Of Health. But there is need for a very much more general adoption of this principle. The cost need not,be very heatpr, aa can be seen from the really excellent milk service provided by the Board of ��������� Health of tbe city of Rochester, N. Y. The initial cost for the eulpment waa only about six hundred dollars, for a population of 200.000. Dr. Goler, who baa bad charge ot tbla work., has made hla city world-famous, oa account of the results by these mSk depots. ������������������suits in Rochester. v, The following statement Illustrating something of wbat has been accomplished by Pr. Goler In Rochester, is taken from Mr. John Spargo's work, "The Common Sebae of the Milk Question": The Rochester depots were first established In 1897. "During the nine years, 18*8 to 1896. Inclusive, there were 1,9*9 deaths of children under five years of age In the months of July and August (In Rochester); but during the period 1897 to 1905, following nine years, distinguished by tbe work of the infanta' milk depots, tbe number-of deaths in the same months' waa only J.0QQ. The number of deaths was lust half, notwithstanding that tbe population bad Increased something like 20 per cent I know of nothing to equal this ret ord in the history of any city in the world. And the cost of this great work to tbe city bas been barely a thousand dollars a year; less than the salary of a good Inspector." M0DE8 OF LOCOMOTION. Mrs. Goodwife-"Hello.! Mr. Beresford.

The bicycle was considered a more appropriate vehicle for ladles to ride. Tbe crank velocipede first appeared In 1867. The automobile is so hew that children can remember the date of its first appear* ance. r Flying machines have long been dreamed *i. In 1679 a plan was published for 'making an air ship to be propelled by oars or sails. It was to be an air-tight brazen vessel so light that when the air waa pumped out of it it would float of Itself. As the designer did not reckon with the pressure of the atmosphere, he never* saw his machine rise. The first balloon ascension was made by Pilatre de Rozier and the Marquis d'Arlandes, November 21, 1783. In a montgolflere. When mlr balloons were first heard of, some one flippantly asked pr.

If worthy, to the limit of bis ability, under all circumstances; in this way it la hoped to build up one of tbe moat powerful and'-widely extended secret orders ln Canada. Educating Possibilities. Owing: to the fact that the Province is rapidly filling up with people from the Bast and South who have very little knowledge of the past history of British Columbia, it is felt tbat the Caribou Brotherhood is an organisation which fills a crying/need. It is realised that .as the the discovery of gold in the Cariboo was tbe cause of the opening up. not only of British Columbia, but also of the wonderfully fertile territories lying to the Bast, and was also indirectly the cause of the building of tbe first transcontinental railway, the history of the incidents, tragic, pathetic and comic, attending tbe discovery of gold should not be lost sight of. and it is one of the chief aims of the Caribou Broth* erhood to collect and preserve "in ita archives, and later to issue In book form,' the wonderful Story of adventure ln*which the pioneers of the Cariboo' participated.^ " ��������� There will be In each subordinate =|T J J. ���������' an: Bublihsed under date of April 14, IM*.

Tbe Caribou Brotherhood, while It bears the name of a quadruped Indigenous to British Columbia, Is not intended to represent an animal, but the district In which the incidents occurred which'tbe Order designs to perpetuate and preserve, and the emblem - therefor of tbe order consists not of an animal's bead, but of the working tools ot the miner, prospector and rancher, who ^Inhabit this wonderfully productive district. Any student of the history of British Columbia recognises the fact that the principal cities of the province owe their earlier success to the gold which' the Cariboo 'miner brought down and dispensed with a princely hand. In those early days there were no authors to chronicle passing events or to describe/either In prose or verse the romantic story of the greatest stampede for gold in the early history of Canada, and it therefore behooves country, to do all In our power to preserve the wonderful narrative of the hardships and perils undergone, and the successes achieved by tbe pioneers who did so much to open up this marvellously rich province to the world. The Colonist of Victoria, the oldest newspaper in the Province, in culling from its files of fifty years ago, gives daily evidence of the marked influence exerted on the growth and development of the whole province by the discovery of gold in the 1 Cariboo.

Tbe first WATER- INVERSION AT CHICAOO What Canada and United States May Plvert from Orest Lakes. The Sanitary District of Chicago has been endeavoring to secure permission to divert 10,000 cubic feet of water per second from Lake Michigan. This water, Instead of going by way of the St. Lawrence river, would reach the sea through the val- lew of the Mississippi. Tbe water already diverted at Chicago has caused serious loss to navigation aad other interests by virtue of the fsct that the levels of tbe Great lakes have beeen lowered. There is, how- ���������ever,, another aspect of the , result which would follow if Chicago were granted Its request to take 10,000 c.f.s. from waters which essentially belong to boundary waters. Some 160,000 horsepower is imported into the United Statqs from Canada, under the Burton Act. This is equivalent to about 12,000 c.f.s. Consequently, Canada would only have . the benefits from thee 36,000 c.f.s. alloted her under the Boundary Waters Treaty, less the 12,000, or 24,000 c.f.s.; whereas the United States would have the benefits from 20,000 c.f.s under the Boundary Waters Treaty, the water equivalent of the imported power, viz., 12,000 c.f.s. and, If the United States obtained the additional 10,000 c.f.s., this would make about 42,000 c.f.s. as compared with the 24,000 mentioned for Canada.

B. rRENCH. B.S.A., Assistant Horticulturist. Cabbage. There are three groups of cabbage commonly grown: the Red, White and Savoy types. Tbe Red Cabbage is commonly used for pickling. The White Cabbage is commonly used as a vegetable, while the Savoy Cabbage, which is of the best quality. Is little cultivated because production Is not so abundant as with the common kinds. The three types of cabbage as to shape are the pointed, round and flat. The pointed are early, tbe round medium, while the flat are late varieties. Sell and Manure. The best soil for cabbage Is a rich loam, moist, yet well drained, and In fine condition. Early cabbage usually need richer soil than late cabbage. It hi a good plan to occasionally ehange the, land. Cabbage are gross feeders and need lots of rich manure. A small quantity of'hen man* tire placed around' each plant and mixed wltb the soil, will give very -good results, especially with early ���������cabbage. Early Cabbage. Seed should be sown in the greenhouse or hotbed, about the middle or end of February.. If only a few plants are required tbey can be grown In shallow boxes In the house. When the plants are about two inches blgb. transplant tbem Into flats, placing the plants one and one-half to ,taree laches apart, depending whether they are to be transplanted once or twice before setting ln the field. The greund should be plowed in the fall and well prepared ln the spring, and ���������the punts should be hardened off before setting them In the open ground. It la Important that early cabbage tehould be planted out as early aa poa* ralMe In tbe spring and set deep -enough to bring the base of the leavea below the ground. Cabbage plants will grow at a low temperature. They , near net etaow much Increase' ln th*> leaf at first, but they form room rap- leTjr. The distance apart for planttnr depends somewhat on the variety jnasra, bat the naval distance Cor ear* -- 4? -eabbage ������ eighteen laches; apart iftrf isn te Inches apart. Habere Is very, Into fraat after planting, the plants may be covered with earth for two or three days, but should Immediately be - uncovered If tite weather toma fine., - Cultivation should begin aa aeon as jpeslble and he continued every week ' or ten darn, and after every rain un* , ta the beads are well formed. -,tne crop should be ready for mar- k������t from July first on. If the land ia' ' at once plowed when the early cabbage Is harvested. It can be used for some late crop, as beans, spinach, or celery la some district If tbe market Is over supplied tbe heada may be retarded by pollmg the plant to one aide and so breaking off some of tbe roots. '��������� Mia Cabbage. Tha seed for late cabbage la sown In a seed bad in the ������������������en ground. *J9m the seed four to air weeks before yon want to transplant to tha Held, in a well-prepared seed bed. Sow In rows about twelve vjhjsshee apart* Tha ground should be well prepared before planting. If ne* cessary. lata cabbage land may be need for some early crops, auch aa . peas, in the spring If horse cultivation Is to be employed, set the plants pot less than two feet apart in rows three feet apart. During the fore part of the season tha cabbage may be cultivated both way*. If tbla Is done very little band labor Is required. Harvesting and vtortag Lata Cab* bag*, bate cabbage may be harvested and sold at once, or stored for market- ins daring tbe winter. Tbey are usually marketed with the outside leavea trimmed off and are shipped In crates, Cabbages will stand ten degrees or mora ot frost, bot severe freexlng or repeated freexlng and thawing is Injurious. They are seldom Injured very much unless tbe stump Is f roxen solid. Cabbages are generally stored In cellars or specially constructed pits In the field. If stored In tbe cellar tbey are placed on shaves, and the cellar should be cool aad moist, but not wet . The pits are.made by constructing an A-ahaped wooden structure, which is Covered over with earth. *This Is made about eight or nine feet wide at the bottom and the point about six feet blgb. A false door Is put In to keep the'cabbage-oft the earth and to allow the air to circulate through the cabbage. While In storage cabbage Ahould be well ventilated and kept as cool as possible without freezing. Soft cabbage may. be stored for the Winter by setting them in a trench, roots upward, and covering the years with about six or eight Inches of soil aad mulch to prevent hard freezing. The roots will show above ground. Soft cabbages stored in this way will harden up by spring. Raising Seed. For raising'seed, cabbage are placed together, in a-trench about eighteen inches deep, head up- vrards, and covered with soil and mulch to , prevent .severe freezing. . Hard heads give" a good quality of . Heed, suits can be obtained from a loose, rich sandy loam or a black much soil. Well drained swamp bind is often excellent sol for the commercial growing of eel* ery. Special attention should be given to the maintenance of humus in tbe soil for the commercial growing of eel* hausts the chemical fertility of tbe soil, but also Injures Its physical condition. This is not so important' In the case of swamp lands, where there is generally an extra large supply of humus. The maintenance of bumus hi the soil can be accomplished by tbe application of large quantities of barn yard .manure, or by planting the land every third or fourth year'to some leg* umlnous crop, such as clover. Fertilisers. Where fresh manure Is used, It ahould be plowed under ln the tall at tha rate ot about twenty tons to the acre. Well-rotted manure may be applied as a top dressing a abort time before planting, and harrowed into the soil. If the manure Is plowed under, the land should be replowed a short time before planting, ln order to bring the manure near the surface. Many growers are getting excellent results from the use of commercial fertilisers at the rate ot 600 to 700 lbs. per acre. Tbe best results seem to be obtained by making a furrow where the plants are to be set: Then scatter the fertiliser In the bottom of the furrow and mix it well with tbe soil and then set the plantron top. Nitrate of Soda might be applied In light applications during the growing season just before cultivating. When celery Is grown on tbe large scale, it is advisable for the grower to experiment with different mixtures of commercial fertilisers, and find out' what gives the best results with' his own particular soil. Raising ths Young Plants. Celery seed loses its vitality very quickly and Is practically worthless when kept over until the second year. Order your seed early, before tbe supply of the best Is exhausted, and there will be very little difficulty In getting good seed. One ounce of seed will give about KjSOO plants. ��������� Celery seeds are slow ln germinating, and tiie temperature of the seed bed should be kept low\ The seeds for the production of early celery are sown about tbe end of February or beginning of March, ln hotbeds or Oats. Where grown In flats there fs less danger of damping off if the seeds are covered with aand. '��������� For bite celery the'seed Is sown In an old hotbed, cold frame or In a well but'alt later cultivations should be prepared seed bed. The seeds should not be, covered to a greater depth than one-eighth ot an Inch. Watering should be attended to very carefully and the bad should not dry out After the plants are up care ahould be taken that the bed does not become too wet and the plants damp off. A better root system and a stronger plant can be obtained when transplanting Into flats Is practiced,- but this la seldom done when celery Is grown on a large scale. The cost of labor ta too great to recommend two handlings for commercial celery production. Tbe plants abound be thinned out In tbe seed bed to prevent overcrowding. , Transplanting to tha Field, Tha around ahould be well plowed, harrowed .and smoothed before the planteare set out The seed bed should be thoroughly soaked with water before the planta are dec*, A portion of the top la generally trimmed off the plant when transplanted. When raised on a large scale celery Is grown In single of* double rows, 4, 6 or 8 feet apart with planta 5 or C Inches apart In tbe rows. Most of the growers In this Province prefer the double row system. Early celery is generally planted closer together than late celery. It the weather Is warm after setting the plants In tbe field, they should be shaded for a few days. Cultivation. .The young plants should be frequently cultivated, but at no time should deep cultivation be practised, as the roots are to be found very near the surface of the soil. As soon as tbe plants attain considerable sice, the leaves should be drawn up and a little soil compacted about tbe base of tbe plant to hold It upright. Blanching. Early celery Is usually blanched by means of boards, as there Is less danger of disease during the warm weather. Late celery may be blanched by tbe use of boards, or by banking up with earth. There is much less labor required- when boards are use? for-blanching, but if tbe celery is to be left in tbe ground late in the fall, there is more danger from frost than when it is well banked with earth. Digging and Preparing for Market In the field the celery should be loosened only as required for removal to the storehouse or washing house, as a short exposure to the sun after the roots have been disturbed is very injurious and detracts from its keeping qualities. When ready for market the celery is washed free of adhering soil, th3 outside leaves are removed and covered. This method is, bow- ever, too laborious for application on a large commercial scale. Celery may be safely stored In cellars or storage houses provided the temperature Is kept low and plenty of ventilation maintained. Make bins 3 or 4 feet wide, 2 feet high and any desired length and put in about 6 inches of strong soil. Plant the celery, leaving the rata on, close together In rows about 3 lncbea apart. After the plants are set In water heavily without putting any pjore than necessary on tbe tops. Leave the bin open until the plants are dry, and then cover. 0 Varieties In Order ef Maturity. Golden Self Blanching, White Plume or Chicago Giant, Paris Golden, Giant Pascal, Evan's Triumph, and Winter Green.* Tomatoes as A Field Crop. Growing ths Plants. Tomato seed should be sown In hotbeds or flats about the middle of March.,,, It requires about one os. of seed to produce enough plants for one acre. When the second leaf shows tbe plants should be transplanted about i Inches apart each way, Into fiats, and allowed to develop in these quarters until they have attained a height of 4 to 6 Inches. They are then transplanted to about 4 inches apart each way In flats or Into berry boxes, pots, etc., and from these quarters to the field." In growing the young plants It is very important to keep the temperature fairly even, and, not allow drafts to strike the plants. The less water used as long as the plants are growing well the better. It 1b very important that the plants should be well hardened off before set in the open ground. 8oil and Its Preparation. Tomatoes If given proper treatment can be grown on almost-' any well drained soil which is ln good condition, but probably a rich, sandy loam will give the best results. The treatment'of tbe soil previous to planting Is very Important Tomatoes do well after clover sod. The ground .should be plowed tar tbe fall or early spring and deeply cultivated in tbe spring. Fertilisers. Barnyard manure may be applied In the fall and plowed Under, or If ^well-rotted tt might be applied as *\ top dressing In tbe spring and worked Into tbe soil., Since the tomato belongs to the potash consuming class of plants, the fertlltxers used should be especially rlcb^ In potash. Setting and Cultivating tiie Plants. The planta ahould* be set tn tbe field as soon as all danger of frost is over. If tbe plants are transplanted from flats to tbe field, cut tbe soil In the flat into cubes two or three" days before removing tbe planta. Soak with water two or three hours before transplanting. If tbe plants are to be allowed to run over the ground, tbey should be set about four feet apart each way. If trimmed and tied to stakes they may be planted In rows three feet apart, and eighteen laches apart In the rows. . Tomatoes need thorough cultivation- shallow, as tbe tomato Is a surface feeder. Pruning and Training. Tomato planta under field cultivation are generally allowed'to run over the ground In any direction. For early market It will pay not to leave more than three sets of fruit Even tor the main crop it will pay to take off all the small fruit and cut back the young shoots about the middle ot August especially tf tha plant la growing rapidly. Selection. Tomato seed should be saved from tbe best tomatoes, from vines producing a large amount of fruit The crown setting Is always the best for seed purposes. Vsrletis*. A good variety is one which bears medlum-slsed, smooth spherical fruits, which ripen evenly and have small seed cavities and thick walls. Bote of the common varieties grown ln Canada are: (Red) Earliana, Bonny Best, Wealthy, Chalk's Jewel, Success, Livingstone, Baltimore and I. X. L.; (Pink)���������June Ping and Globe. Harvesting and Marketing. The fruit should be gathered two or three times a week If the tomato' Is grown as a truck crop. If used for canning purposes.tbe harvesting periods need not be quite so close. For home markets the fruit should be allowed to ripen upon the plant. If the fruit is to be shipped long distances It should be harvested just as the ripening process begins. Only sound fruit should be ffarketed. In packing tomatoes for the market tbe fruit should be graded and those that are symmetrical in form and uniform in size and of a like degree of ripeness packed in any one receptacle.

Anstruther sighed. "Yes. 1 can move now. I think, without fainting." "But you must not; at least, not much. Jim was on the right track, but he certainly did not give you much play.
