is made from ground sandstone and
clay, and there are ten kinds, differing
from each other in regard to hardness
and grain as follows: a. A hard and
a soft kind, with coarse grain, particu-
larly useful in the leather, wax-cloth,
felt and wood industries; (2) hard and
soft kind of medium coarse grain, suit
ed to stucco workers and sculptors and
particularly useful for polishing wood
before it was painted (3) soft, fine
grained stone Cor the white and dry pol
ish of wood and for tin goods; f4) one of
medium hardness with fine grain, for
giving the wood surface for an oil pol
ish; (5) hard, fine-grained one for
working metals and stones, especially
photographic stones; and finally pumice
stones with very fine grain. These
artificial stones are used in pretty much
the same way as those of volcanic
origin. For giving smooth surface to
wood, dry stone is applied, but to give
it fine polish the stone is dipped in
oil. For fine work no coarse-grained,
and for coarse work no fine-grained
stones are used. The unreliability of
pumice, both in grain and hardness,
variations being noted even in the same
piece, suggested the idea of replacing it
with the artificial product. Scientific

FACTS ABOUT CANCER.
Two Recent Discoverie. Made I'm Eng.
lsnd Open Entirely New Lines
of investigation.

Great Importance is attached to two
recent discoveries concerning cancer.
The first of these is the discovery of
the existence of cancer in fishes, as
in man and other warm blooded ami
mails living in similar conditions as
man. 1T is hoped that the fact that
cancer exists in fishes which live un-
der such different conditions than man,
may narrow the necessary field of OBJ
servations and thus conduce to more
speedy and complete knowledge of the
disease.
The other discovery was that Of
Profs. Farmer and Moore and Walker.
This does not promise an immediate
cure or prevention, but is acknowl-
edged to be of the highest Importance.
At present its practical value is dag
nostic. 1t enables a distinction read
lily, even easily, to be drawn between
malignant and benignant growth at
the same time.
The fundamental importance of the
discovery must not be discounted
Heretofore the most. terrible thing
about cancer has been the ignorance
of the causes of it's birth and growth.
A microbe parasite has been suggest
ed, but failed completely to justify the
theories founded on the assumption Of
its presence.
Another theory which has been ac-
copied generally of late has been thae
cancer is the untimely growth of an
embryonic tissue-that is, a tissue which
had existed in the body stationary ard
undeveloped since some previous stage.
The body's evolution from it's embryo
had started it into activity, and it de-
veloped at furious rate in an entire
ly wrong way. Prof. Farmer and his
colleagues have now established the
nature of the cancer cells, the method
of their growth, the possible connec-
ton Of this growth and the irritating
causes which provoked it, incidentally
showing that cancer cells are not
development of the embryonic tissue.
1t is difficult to explain the discov-
cry briefly in popular language, but
the central point is the establishment
of the fact that the cancer cells are
cells which under some kind of irri-
tating stimulus behave not as ordinary
cells, but as If they were cells of the
tissue. The process OBJ
served during the development makes
it easy to tell IL cell is malignant
cancer. Research, therefore, has .
new field of observation in finding
what agents of irritation are causing
an ordinary cell to act the same a.
cells of reproductive tissue.

When the John A. Salzer Seed Co., of La

grass three years ago, little did they dream
It would be the most talked Of grass in
America, the biggest, quick, hay producer
on earth, but this has come to pass.
Ayr. Editors wrote about it, Ayr. Col
lege Professors lectured about it, Ayr. In
stitute Orators talked about it, while in
the farm home by the quiet freside, in the
corner grocery, in the village post-office, at
the creamery, at the depot, in fact wher-
ever farmers gathered, Salzer's Billion Dol
lar Grass, that wonderful grass, good for
to IA tons per acre and lots of pasture
besides, is always theme worthy of the
farmers voice.
Then comes Bromus Inermis, than which
there is no better grass or better permanent

INTERESTING TO AMERICANS.
the supply Depot for Wheat for
Great Britain.

During the past year about $4,000
Americans went from the United States
to Canada. Most of these settled upon
farm lands. and the writer is informed
by agents of the Canadian Government
that the greatest success has followed
the efforts Of nearly all. To their
friends on this side of the boundary
line the fullest assurance is given of
the prosperity that is in store for
them. There will always be splen-
did market for all the grain. cattle
and other produce that can be raised in
Western Canada. and with the advan-
tages offered of a free homestead of
160 acres of land, and other lands
which may be bought cheaply, an ex-
cellent climate, splendid school system,
educational advantages of the best,
what more is required. The husband
man gets more return for his money
than in any other country in the world.
On the occasion of Sir Wilfred
Laurier's visit to the Corn Exchange,

have just been assisting in connection
with kindred association has doubt

provision trade of Liverpool in it's re-
lationship with the Dominion, and the
enormous possibilities of the future de-
velopment of that trade. Well, the
grain trade of Liverpool has interests
with Canada no less important than
those of the provision trade. When It
is borne in mind that 80 per cent. of
the breadstuffs of this great country
has to be brought from abroad you will
readily appreciate with what great sat-
isfaction we view the large and steadi-
ly increasing supplies of grain which
are annually available for export from
Canada. and l challenge contradiction

ated, than that raised in the Province
Of Manitoba. We cannot get enough of
It, and it is no exaggeration to say that
there are before us dozens of millers
who hunger for it. This is not the
time to enter into statistical questions,
but we look forward with confidence to
the time at which. with the present
rate of progress. the Dominion OF Cam
ada will have a sufficient surplus of
wheat to render this country inde-
pendent of other sources of supply. I
think I may. with justifiable pride, re-
mind you that this is the chief grain

Search for Radtum Minerals.
The Academy of Natural Sciences Of
Vienna has appointed commission to
investigate the occurrence of minerals
containing radium in the Bohemian
Erzgebirge. Should this wonderful sub
stance be discovered there in such
form that it can be separated at cost
lower than that of the supply con-
trolled by the Curies. who now seem to
have monopoly of radium, the search
will prove of no small value to the
scientific world in general. While the
present supply is under the control of
two people, it is not this fact alone
which keeps the price SO high, but the
expense of the processes through which
it must pass before it is purified and
separated from all other elements and
