"A division of the revenue into five separate heads and examination of the amounts derivable from each, show that the total abolition of the taxes on property and persons and raising of the revenue solely from an increased. tax on natural resources, which, even if it were held desirable for other reasons, involve a 50 per cent, increase in the rate of taxation of such resources, i. e. timber, coal and minerals." Land tax revenue for 1910-11 is shown at $316,130.83, and the report sets out general considerations why improvements on lands should not be taxed, at the same time clearly defining the meaning of such improvements. Real property taxes revenue for 1910-11 totalled $352,372.44, at * evidence taken by the Commission of 1 per cent, on assessed values. The showed that the rate of taxation is not generally regarded as burdensome, but certain representations were made as to assessment inequalities and complaints as to thc taxa' tion of improvements. . The Commissioners in dealing particularly with real property, recommend: 1. A periodical reassessment of property according to its actual defined value; 2. The abolition of taxation on improvements; 3. Legislation enforcing registration of real estate on affidavits set- kert value of copper. witnesses were generally directed to the inequality of the tax as between high-grade__ ancl _lo\\v_:grade_.ores._/ _A_ suspension of the tax was asked for, or alternatively a reduction of the J tax. ��������� The -Commissioners do not recommend any change in the tax imposed on minerals.

It is therefore necessary, in fact imperative, that the farmer should get every cent possible out of his low grade grain, and there is only one wuy to do this.

If a farmer who has never shipped is compelled to do bo this year through the quality boing K9 poor that he cannot sell to advantage at streot prices, we make this statement, that having low grade grain this year ia the best thing that ever happened 60 him.

Over.an undercoat of black cloth witlra fur collar she had on a man's long-haired bcais'kin coat, from which the buttons or frogs had been torn, and their places taken by short pieces of brown string tied in bows. Over her head and ears was pulled-a white, wollen toque, while her eyes ehone dully through a uavy-blue veil, gathered into a knot at the nape of her neck.

One of his front teeth was filled with gold, and when he smilled a ray from the sun jumped back from it and stabbed me iri-tlio-cvo his place at the head of the line, the iow bogan.

In lho midst of the fight the land oflicer suddenly appeared in the doorway nnd. standing on a chair, road the Riot Act, which, in the form of regulations, p/o- vents all such doings. It was as follows:��������������������������� "it is to be distinctly understood that priority of right on the part of a waiting applicant to enter for any parcel of land does not arise before the opening,of the office on thc day upon which such land becomes available for entry.'' The land Hgent bellowed this regulation from his elevated perch, gesticulated violently with his arms, and disappeared backward through the doorway. All hauds wero ordered off the 6teps, and three members of the Royal Mounted Police took charge. Later in-the dajyhowevcr, tne young-couple, fearing to lose the advantage their eaily coming ^"had" in the beginning .gained for them, returned and - quietly crept up the steps once more, and took up their position at the latch.

And there they hung on, at the head .of-the rapidly increasing line, until seven 'o'clock the following morning,-'when the outer .loor of the post-oflice was opened, and a wild scramble for the stairs up to the land office ensued.

When the potatoes are thrown out it is best to let them lie until tho earth dries on them-, a? it will faoilitate the cleaning off.

The wagon can be drawn'into the field at one end and tlio potntoesdug alj_a_rouml_it. A pail is about the best article foi gathering in, or in lieu of this a half bushel measuro will be found handy. Keep account of the yield as it goes out of tho field, but don't weigh half the soil ou your poj-.ato field with Uo erop. Grading should ba done as you gather, and will tftxvc a lot of trouble later on. If, however, you are pushed for time, this oprration may be left until lator. Tue little potatoes should go to the hens and pigs. There is nothing particularly difficult in the care that should be given to potatoes in storing. The main thing to avoid is dampness, and this can be avoided by sufficient drainage in the store house and by having the potatoes kept from contaet with the walls. Never roll the potatoes down a chute into store room. Potatoes will not ���������������������������taud the cold as well as apples, and must be kept at a slightly higher temperature, about 32 degrees Fahrenheit is the best temperature. Potatoes freeze at 30.2 degrees Fahrenheit. Warmth favors sprouting, which is injurious both to the keeping and table qualities of the tuber. ' Potatoes will keep well on racks with slatted bottoms away from all contact with walls and floor, and should be kept in tbe dark or, at least, in a very moderate light.

We" were taken to task by a friend the other day for having used the term "spoon fed" in our references now and then in discussing the policy of some of our- farmers who have seen fit to oppose the movement to incorporate the Bnderby-Mara district as. a rural municipality. The friend's argument was that the district was entitled to all it received from the Provincial Government, and it could not be said, therefore, that this was a spoon-fed district. Either this friend or the editor is laboring -und er-a=m i sta k en=4 d ea=as=t o=wb at> constitutes a "spoonfed" individual or community. We best can illustrate our meaning in the expression "spoonfed" by bringing it down to the individual in the hiomc. The children are "spoonfed" between the bottle and the knife and fork. They are "spoonfed" until they are able to ; feed themselves. Thcrc_ is no question as to what each is entitled to. The "spoonfed" child is entitled to what it gets from the spoon���������������������������<_uite as much as the elder children arc entitled to what they get with the aid of knife and fork. But the "spoon- ,fed" child is thc weakling. It cannot jfced itself. It lacks ambition, and . whines to be spoonfed rather than .take up thc responsibility of feeding ,'itself. While all thc other children [arc eagerly taking up life's burdens | and fitting themselves for the battles | of everyday, in the home and out of jit, the "spoonfed" pines to be relieved of the responsibility of tackling the things worth while. The lusty, healthy boy or girl���������������������������the kind , worth while���������������������������break away from the spoon as early as possible. Only the weakling prefers to depend upon the parent for its sustenance. If we arc to be understood in our use of thc term "spoon fed" in connection with the movement on foot, the thought in relation to the children of the home need only be applied to districts. ,- You-can't always tell by the looks of a pup how big a thought he can think.���������������������������The Pensive Pup.

C, Jan. 22.���������������������������That Attorney General Bowser meant exactly what he,said a few days ago intimating that a general reduction in the number of licensed houses in the rural districts was imminent is emphasized by protests coming in from all quarters, from thos* who were licensees but are such no longer. The ministerial course is based wholly upon the license inspectors' reports, the cancellations ordered and contemplated being for active violations of the law or for failure on the part of the licensees in unorganized districts to meet the requirements named in the act for licensed hotel premises ��������������������������� as in the matter of dining room, guest room and stabling accommodation licensees living with their families upon the premises, etc. It is also reported that many road houses have taken long chances with the law in selling during prohibited hours, in Belling to chaffeurs, to minors and to interdicts, and also in permitting their establishments to be used for improper purposes. That certain road houses on highways radiating from Victoria have been among the offenders is matter of departmental knowledge, and instead of initiating prosecutions penalty will be imposed ^cancellation of the. licenses. Nelson, Rossland, Phoenix, and a number of other Interior towns have taken a hint from the course that is being pursued by the Department, and cancelled licenses where the standard of hotel accommodation has fallen short. Other towns will act similarly in the public interest. Of the well known road-houses in the unorganized districts which have already been cut off; the" license list are mentioned the Clinton Hotel and the Newmarket at New Denver.: In-connection with | the latter, _. action7was; taken 1 by: Chief.Black7 of. Nelson,, on telegraphed instruction from Superintendent Campbell. The;|rierids of the licensee, Henry Stege,7'are utmost to obtain reconsideration of the official action, alleging that it must of been based upon incorrect and misleading reports, and to make strong his hand, Mr Stege has secured a petition signed- by virtually all the active church workers and temperance champions of New Denver attesting his peculiar fitness to enjoy a licensee's privileges.

Mastication is'accomplished by the action of the teeth of the lower jaw against those of the upper, in tho carnivorous or flosh-cating animals, the movement of the Lowor jaw is limited to ���������������������������p and down motion -and thc food is ,crushed between tho very uneven surfaces of tho upper and lower teeth: while in the herbivorous or grass and gaain-eating animal.'., the movement i3 almost wholly sideways, grinding the food between, the comparatively smooth surfaces of-the'leoth. as man's diet consists of a-large variety of foods, we - find a modification of these two forms iu a somewhat uneven uifrface of tho teeth and a .very f too movement of the ' lower jaw, forward and backward, and -from side to side. When food has been ���������������������������taken into the mouth, the tongue move* il back .between-'the spostenor teeth, . where it is ground into small particles. The movements of the tongue, lips_ and cheek serve to retain.thc food in the " proper relation to the teeth until it is sufficiently comminuted and mixed with saliva, when it passes backward and is swallowed. .-This should not be douc until thc food is thoroughly masticated and insalivated.

Where thc necessity of mastication is lacking, the instinct l!or it .gradually disappears and the child a.sagcs and tonsils fail to pro- porly dtwolop, and in plater life'also, unless mastication is prolonged these parts aro ,deprived of tho "stimuli.ting oll'cct of iiicieasod flow of blood to the parts, brousrht about by the action of masticating, and hence aro more liable to become diseased both in the child and in the adult. There is no doubt whatever that lack of efficient mastication predisposes the child and the adult to rhinitis, tousilitis, adenoids and other affections of the throat'aud nasal passages. "The prevalence rof adenoids among moderns must be the result of the modern system of feeding children and the defective mastication which goes along with il." A'sequence of adenoids is "inouth breathing" on account of the prostorior nasal passages becoming blocked up. So, also, a sequence of mouth breathing is the pre disposition to laryngitis, broncnitis. phthisis, dental caries,-irregularity of the teeth, lack of development of the cranial and jaw bones. Another result of lack of abundant mastication is a lack of development of the tongue, salivary glands and jaw bones. ' The' effect to the teeth is very marked. As thp circulation in "the teeth and surrounding parts is not stimulated, tho teetn in infants do not develop properly and aftcr'developmont they are not properly exercised and massaged, while the secretions of the mouth are apt to be scanty aud unhealthy.. .Under these conditions, i-hox teeth., and surrounding parts are more liable tb'-fbecomc diseased. An other result.. inVmqre mature life is the looseninsr-of - the-'teeth" from- a"disease ealled "pyorrliea'-alve'olaris or RiggVdi-' sease",.

We read: "Tho height of aurora's above the earth may ,vary within wido limits. Tho measurements taken by the Swedish expedition during tho winter of 189S1-1000 at Akureyri, Iceland, under the direction of A. Paulson, have fur- nis lied altitudes (250 miles) for relatively quiet arcs.- Stormer, by photographing tho aurora simultaneously from two stations-a������������������d~"comparihg~ positTooiT~rTd^ tivoly to tho surrounding stars on both plates, has found for cortais points altitu'bs of f,0 to 1.10 miloM. "The spectrum of the aurora was first studied by Angstrom in 18Gt5. . . our system. Ingenious hypotheses have been put forward along- this line. But although .the connection would appear very probable, it is doubtless more com-' plex than 'a simple relation of cause and elfect. .The mechanism that joins tho magnetic variations and the polar auroras to those of the solar activity itself (not to some of its manifestations, such as spots;'faeulac, or protuberances, as fias been 'attempted) has not yet stood'out from an investigation of the facts hitherto known, and remains shrouded in mystery." Some of the numerous'theories that, havo been advanced are briefly summarized by -Mr. Loirel. Arrhenius supposes that eruptions of ionized gas take place from the sun and that condensation takes, place.around the negative particles, which are then repelled from .the sun and begin to emit eathodo rays when thoy enter our atmosphere;' but these do not become visible until they reach air of - sufficient density, which they do at the poles because ths^tor- restrial lines of force conduct them thither. Others, such as Deslaudroe and . Bh-kcland, assert, that the sun's atmosphere itself gives oft* cathodic rays directly. Birkeland magnetized a small steel sphere to represent the earth" covered, it with7,a phosphorescent chemical, and "placed it in "a beam of cathode' rays." The rays, as they strike the sphere,,.are so deviated "that thoy form;two- phosphorescent,- polar bauds representing the. zones"-of auroral frequency'.'-* f Still other'authorities believe auroras.are due to_electric waves such as arc employed in-wireless telegraphy. firovcn) hvrlrouplt ..

" (Quick deals: Big Cash Payments.) i Immense Profits in Poultry Products as the Result of Co-Operation It is an interesting and instructive, though possibly not a particularly edifying fact, that the poultry products of this country last year totalled only $25,000,000, as against $625,- 000,000 for the United States, in the same period. Such figures as these offer food / for thought. Poultry is very much underdone in Canada at the present time, and unless we are agoing to import eggs and poultry Very heavily, our output in the next five years must 'increase to ten times what it is to-day. Even now we are importing eggs from the United States, Russia and Germany. Sifting . these figures 'down to their plainest meaning-,' we are shown that the United States on poultry ' isr.'beating us' out in- the about three to one per head lation. . --This $625,000,000 of poultry pro- ��������������������������� ducts in the United States last year, > -is.more "than the* products in a similar period of all the farms and ranches of the whole Dominion of Canada, including the live stock, field - crops, and everything which was pro- >������������������������������������������������������ duced on the farms of Canada last year. In 1902 Canada "exported ?J,733,242 worth of poultry pn'Dducts. Last year these figures dropped to but slightly over half a million. In "1904 the Dominion exported to Great Britain ten times the poultry and eggs s that she docs today. There are two reasons for this state of affairs. In thc first place, the Canadian farmer fails to realize the enormous profit- making possibilities presented by the egg market ; in the second place, while he knows the producer's prices are high at present, he is afraid that a greater production would cause cold storage houses and other midclle- ,_men__to._cut_these_-nrices-down Thc. and eggs in greater quantities lest the price be forced down. It looks very much as if co-operation among, farmers and team work in marketing were to be the ultimate solution of the Canadian poultry problem. The idea of the farmers getting- together to d,o their marketing ancl taking for themselves the profits that would otherwise go to the cold storage houses, makes a strong appeal to common sense.��������������������������� Successful Poultryman. England's Insurance Law In general terms the Insurance Bill recently passed in the British House requires that a man shall pay eight cents, the employer six cents and the state four cents. In return the insured receives free medical attendance by a doctor of his own selection from a panel of doctors, and free medicines, sick- pay at the rate of $2.50 a week the first three months, $1.25 for the next three months and for life in case of permanent invalidism. For women the payments and benefits are lower and include maternity benefits. It is estimated that 9,200,000 men and 3,900,000 women come within the compulsory class, and that of the total annual fund of $118,- 000,000 the state will contribute over $27,000,000. In certain highly skilled trades like that of ship-building a beginning is also made in insurance against unemployment, except in case of strikes, on further payments by the three parties. National sanitariums are also to be established for the treatment of tuberculosis. WHERE UNION MONEY GOES The defense of the McNainaras, recently tried at Los Angeles for dyna- products jmiting the Los- Angeles .Times and ratio of other.buildings, cost approximately of popu-| $200,000. Thc amount spent in the I fruitless trial of Haywood-Moyerand Petti bone', some years.-ago. for the murder of Governor Stunehherg, of Idaho, footed up\\?300,000. Some conception of the disastrous : effects of the recent" struggle -between jthe operators and miners in this dis- j trict and the enormous financial loss i entailed may be- had from-the an- Inouncement of the U.S. Consul here I to the effect that the expprts of coal from the Crow's Nest Pass-fields clur- ;ing 1910, exceeded the exports for i 1911 by $1,730,000. Assuming* that Jthe domestic markets were adversely ���������������������������affected in a like manner the total iloss to the Pass is simply appalling. ���������������������������Fernie Free Press. farmer does not want to produce unless he is sure that he is going to get full return for his labors. He has seen production increased in other supplied markets, with this result Nothing helps business conditions more than being on good terms with your competitors.
