The farmers had their innings, May
9th, when strong protests against the
passage of the Canadian reciprocity
measure were voiced in the Senate COM
mittee on finance in Washington by New
England representatives of the grange.
The principal speaker was Charles M.
Gardner, master of the Massachusetts
grange. Others were F. E. Marchand
of Rhode Island, G. H. Potter, l.. H.
Healey, J. A. Sherwood of Connecticut
and Richard Pattee of New Hampshire.
Mr. Gardner told the committee that
Farmers all over Massachusetts. wheth-
err they are members of the grange or
not, are opposed to reciprocity, They
have recently held meetings all over the
State, not to act on reciprocity, but for
general purposes, and at all these meet
ings protests have been lodged against
this bill" Reciprocity, he said, was
decided blow to the young men the agri-
cultural colleges had been instructing in
intensive farming with view to repopu-
lating the abandoned farms of Massachu-
sets. He said further: 1.-THE possibility
of the passage of this bill has already
brought about stoppage of improve
m ents on farm lands and halt in ne
gotiations for transfer of farm properties
and improvements on them. | know Of
several instances where contemplated
transfers of lands have Teen abandoned
solely in the belief that Congress would
pass the reciprocity BILL" The adoption
of the Canadian agreement, he said,
would seriously affect the milk industry
and result in the termination of the pros
perity of the apple growers and hay pro-
ducers. Mr.. Marchand told the committee
that if protection was good for the manu-
facturer it was good for the farmer as
we'll All he wanted, he said, was a
square deal for the American farmer.
His views were agreed to by the Connect
cut delegation and by Mr.. Pattee. Sena-
tor Gallinger read letter from New
Bruins wick farmer, who wrote that New
Brunswick expected to control the potato
market if the reciprocity agreement.
were adopted. Mr.. Pattee remarked,
apr opos of this letter, that the farmers
of New Hampshire feared that the adop-
ion of this agreement would mean ruin
to the growers of potatoes and hay.
Senator johnson of Maine remarked that
potatoes were higher in New Brunswick
this year than in New England, where
upon the hearing was brought to close.

question as to how It should be deter

two ministers should be a censor

ministers protested that they did not
care to attend moving picture shows
for any purpose and had no interest
In seeing whether or not the pictures
were proper. Then committee of

was unsatisfactory, and II was finally

THE YOUNG BRIDES
FIRST DISCOVERY

Their wedding tour had ended, and
they entered their new home to settle
down to what they hoped to be one long
uninterrupted blissful honeymoon.
But, alas! the young brides troubles
soon begin, when she tried to reduce the
cost of living with cheap big can baking
powders.
She soon discovered that all she goa
was lot for her money, and it was noe
all baking powder, for the bulk Of it was
cheap materials which had no leavenins
power. Such powders will not make light,
wholesome food. And because Of the alb
sence of leavening gas. il requires from
two or three times as much to raise cakes
or biscuits as it does of Calumet Baking
Powder.
Thus, eventually, the actual cost to
you. Of cheap baking powders. is more
than Calumet would be. M
Cheap baking powders often leave the
bread bleached and acid. sometimes yell
low and alkaline, and often unpalatable.
They are not always of uniform strength
and quality.
Now the bride buys Calumet--the per.
fectly wholesome baking powder, moder.
ate in price, and alwayr uniform and re-
liable. Calumet keeps indefinitely, makes
cooking easy, and is certainly the most
economical after all.

NEW YoRK.-Phosphorus matches
~ kill and MAIN the men and girls
who make them. The working men
and girls who are engaged in the
manufacture and the packing of the
ordinary match run heavy risk of
contracting phosphorus necrosis. and
those who get this disease generally
die horrible and lingering death.
These facts are brought out in the
report of the United States bureau Of
labor, which recently investigated the
match industry
Phosphorus necrosis, or match pol
soning. attacks the teeth and Jaws.
The teeth become loose and fall out
and the bone of the jaw becomes por-
GUS and decays. 1t is necessary then
to remove large parts of the bone, and
frequently the entire jaw. One man
who worked In a match factory In
Wisconsin had to nave his whole up
per and lower jaws removed, SO bad
ly had the disease attaked him. Then
he lived for months. taking occasional
nourishment through tube.
Another case reported by the bu-
reau of labor was that OF a girl of

CHARCOAL FED

Experiments IN Ireland Indicate
That Burnt Wood in Some
Form Ia Important IN

In q recent issue of the Journal of
Agriculture for Ireland was given an
account of experiments conducted for
the purpose of deciding the exact
value of charcoal as a means of keep
ing birds that are closely confined in
good health during the period of fat
tening. Eighteen large, healthy Ayles-
bury ducklings were selected from a
large flock, and divided into three
mems. each pen containing 6 duck
lings. The ducklings were fed upon
foods which previous experiment had
shown to be profitable and econom-
ical. namely, boiled potatoes. barley
meal. ground oats, skim milk and tai.
low greayes. The method of prepar-
ing the food was to boil, strain and
pound up the potatoes. which before
boiling would constitute about one
third by weight of the mash. Barley
meal and ground oats were then In
equal parts mixed with the potatoes.
skim milk was added to form a rather
wet mash. This was fed to the duck
lings from the end of the fifth to the
beginning of the ninth week During
the last two weeks Of fattening, ami
NAL food in the form of rough fat or
tallow cracklings was added to the
mash, the allowance being about two
ounces per day to each duck. Grit and

food received by all the ducklings was
