THE resignation o. his government was
Jon the ground OF expadlency. snow
ting that the step lad been carefully
for some time. and 10 WAS
Ievidentiy contemplated by NJ. Balfou-
lduring the greater part OF the yea.
Mr.. Balfour defended the action OF
the unionist government In its reter-
ltion OF ONCE OF the ground that Ii
was essential TO wait until b Anglo
Japanese treaty was finally concluded
and other necessary features of n
government programme were carried
Iout. This had ceen done with tina ex-
lception of the redistribution bin.
Mr.. Balfour laid the lash of bitter
Isa cast on what he declared to be the
liberal attempts to avoid making home
lrule the leading issue. and said wheth-
Ter they were ashamed of il or not,
jhome rulers they were and home rul-
Iers they would remain. MIR. Balfour
Iplainly indicated that the %unionist at
tack would be conferred on the home
rule record Of the Liberals while the
Iunionists would use their own record
lon home. foreign and colonial poll
Icies as their bulwark of defense.
Mr.. Balfour made a strong plea for
unity during the elections. He hoped
that the new administration when IL
handed back the reins TO h unionists
would be able ID point TO a record
Iequally creditaoi, to the country. He
lpredicred the failure of the liberals
to carry nj their programme which
he understood was the upsetting or

lstick to their resolution to follow the
Zines of foreign policy Of the unionist
government.
The meeting concluding with tue
lpassing of a vote of confidence in Mr..

MI. Balfour made no reference TO Jo-

So uniformly successful has DR.. Pierce's

IN THE GARDEN

The nearest approach to perfection
that he has ever seen is what Long
Island cabbage grower calls the new
Russian cabbage, the Volga.
Leeks may be grown in the same
way as onions. If long white stems are
wanted for eating raw, the plants
should be blanched by deep planting
and subsequent embanking, something
after the manner of treating celery.
A marvellous range Of colors has been
developed in the nasturtium, which IA
vorite flower for three or four months
of the year makes display of blooms
unrivaled by almost any plant.
Have you tried the new hardy an
nual Nlcotiana sanderae? Nothing
among the nicotlanae appears to ap-
proach it In Righteousness or graceful
branching habit. The whole plant lit
orally blaZes from summit to base with
beautiful carmine red blossoms, and
it demands little in the way of any spe-
cial soil or care.
Here is a goo& old fashioned garden
wrinkle that may be new to some of
the beginners. Seeds which are very
small or very slow to germinate should
be planted if possible in soil very well
prepared and that will not bake over
the row, and with them in the drill may
be sown radish or turnip seed, which
Ia quick growing and will come up and
break the crust In advance of the other
plants and will mark the row SO culti-
vation can begin at once. This is very
useful when sowing parsley.

In the animal kingdom the birds
seem to be really the class most highly
favored by nature. Though they are
not placed near the summit of the line
of evolution, their ability to fly marks
them off as having some advantages
over nearly all the mammalia. Their
mysterious power Of changing theiI
polarity or weight in order to dive in
water or soar In air has been often
discussed, and the almost incredible
velocity of their motion when migrat,
ing, sometimes amounting to -four
miles minute for vast distances, has
no parallel among other animals. In
addition, experiments with carrier
pigeons at night demonstrated beyond
doubt that these birds at least possess
a highly developed sense of direction
