Waste Of Life In Coal Mining.
During the year 1906 nearly 1000
men were killed or injured in the coal
mines of the United States, and indi-
cations point to an increase In that
number since that period, due to a
lack of proper and enforceable mine
regulations; to the lack of reliable in
formation concerning explosives used
in mining, and the conditions under
which they can be used with safety;
to the presence Of gas and dust en-
countered in the mines and to the fact
that In the development OF coal min
ing not only is the number of coal
miners increasing, but many areas
from which coal is being taken are
either deeper or farther from the en-
trance, where good ventilation is more
difficult and the dangerous accumula-
lions of explosive gas are more fire.
quent. To remedy this state Of az
fairs, says Review of Reviews, the
United States must adopt the means
that have proved successful in Euro
pean countries. In 1895 our ratio of
killed in every 1000 employed in
mines was 2.67. In 1906 it reached
$40. Effective mining legislation tells
a different tale in Europe. In this
country so per cent. of all the fatal ac-
cidents and 80 per cent. of all the non
fatal accidents were due to falls of
roofs and coal. In all European coal
producing countries the use of exces-
sive charges of explosives is prohibit
ed by law, and definite limits are set
to the amount of any explosive that
may be used. In the United States
there is no limit. In this country dur
Ing 1906 IL per cent. of deaths in coal
mines were due to gas and dust explo-
sions. Abroad, governmental testing
stations are maintained, where inves-
legations into the use of explosives
are conducted.

my warm friends seem to think SO.
| myself am a humble but not reluctant witness to the gradual rise

After all, in my opinion, the largest evidence of the moral PROGRESS Of
the American people lies in the recognition, now well nigh universal
that at the bottom all the problems of society re not simply probloms
hgon. There is no unanswered question in legislation that is not an
sweed in the gospel of Christ. Those mighty problems that have
brought our philosophy and craftsmanship almost to a standstil if thew

daily life of this world of that ancient law which we have inherited from
our fathers and mothers, the law of Christ revealed to the world in the
gospels.
And for that reason it is with hope and courage that we look toward
the future; and | venture to predict that the time is at hand. nearer
than we know, when we shall realize that the world in which We arc

POULTRY NOTES.

Clean the droppings from under the
roosts frequently.
Buckwheat is excellent for both
young and old poultry.
A laying hen should have constant
access to lime or gravel.
Grit is the hens teeth. Provide her
with plenty of it, so that she may de-
gest her food.
If you expect the hen to lay freely
you must feed her the kind Of stun
that will make eggs.
Feed only what the hens will eat up
clean. Any kind of feed left from one
day to another is apt to start disease.
Watching the incubator carefully is
the way to get the best hatch. a lit
tie carelessness is sure to produce dis
astrous results.
Charcoal or burned corn occasional-
ly is a good conditioner for the fowls.
1t prevents indigestion and other dis
eases to which they are heir.

days OF March. Our equipment will be practically the same as in the
expedition of 19O5-1906. l want to have 200 dogs, 25 sledges and 25

consume 100 to 1870 days. We should be back on the mainland some time
in June, 1909.
From all the scientists know, and from all the differences to be based
upon that knowledge, the first white man to stand at the north pole will
not see a scene very different from those taversed by most explorers
In the Arctic. 1t is not likely that there will be even a mound of ice to
mark the actual pole.
The man standing at the pole, though, will look upon a marvellous
and novel scene from the astronomical standpoint. He will see the
sun, like a wheel of fire, circing the horizon like a wheel instead of rising
and setting. From day to day it will gradually ascend higher and higher
in a hattened spral.
The sun will appear above the horizon on March 20 at the vernal
equinox. 1t will not set for six months. On June %, at the summer
sostlce, 1T will be highest in the heavens: Then it will slowly descend
lower and lower until the disc disappears on September 20,
AT night, too, the stars will be a curious sight. Only those in the
northern celestial sphere, of course, are visible there. Directly overhead
