WHO is TO BLAME =?
For 50 Many sIekIy chIIdren?

We hear of so many children who
are thin, delicate, ailing and tired all
the time, we are led to ask what is
the cause, and who is to blame?
Don't blame the children-they
have no strength They play hard,
work hard at school, and rapid
growth takes all their strength.
It is the mothers of all such chill
dren who are to blame, for if they
only realized what our delicious cod

little ones, they wouldn't sleep at
night until they had started them on

The action Of othine is really re-

many of the freckles disappear en-

Avalon, Cal Many years ago Vic
tor Hugo wrote in his "Toi'ers of the

Clarence Brodie got some inkling OF
the sensations CT such death In the

held there until be thought he was
about to drown
He succeeded In wrenching himself
loose with badly torn digits and now
the gentle one shelled mollusc is a
thing of terrible menace to him.
There have been many tales and
traditions up and down the California
coast Of how fishermen and others
have CROPPED along the bottom when
the tide was low. how they have had
their hands caught in the terrible
grip of the ahHlOne, how they were
held as the tide rose higher and high

desperately chopped of the impris

something Of such an experience here.

the mistake. of trying to tear one OF
the abalones loose by clawing. his
fingers ISGer the rim of It's shell In
stantly the powerful muscles of the
mollusc dosed down the shell on the
rock to which It chung and Brodie
found himself held helpless.
His breath was becoming exhausted
as he struggled to free his fingers
and finally with one supreme wrench
he tore the fingers from under the
abalone shell and rose to the surface.
His fingers were badly lacerated and
he may carry the scars as souvenir
of his adventure for life.

CUTTING THROUGH CAPE COD
Canal That viii Save 1870 Miles Of
Sailing May Be Completed :,
Next Year.

So much attention has been given
to the digging of the great ship canal
across the lsthmus of Panama, ands
locally, so much interest being ex-,
PENDED In the slow and tedious build;
Ing OF the barge canal across New
York state, that sight has almost been,
lost of the Cape Cod canal, which has
been in progress since June, 1890.
This canal has been projected since,
1920, for the Pilgrims saw the adj
vantage of saving this 100 miles of
sailing around Cape Cod, and the dan
of the year are said to be very severe
off the cape itself. In the last so
years there have been 2,131 sailing
vessels lost on these voyages, and
more than 700 lives. 1t is said that,
more than 100000 tons of freight
are carried yearly past the mouths,
of the canal, and the saving in frelght-'
age alone will be enough to pay for'
the construction Of the canal In a.
very short time. Insurance rates that.
will be saved in the construction Of
the short cut will be a very large tig-l
ure. for the companies have learned
that the fogs and gales are very de-
structive and that losses demand high
premiums upon all cargoes.
The canal will run from Barnstable
bay on the south side of Buzzard's
bay on the north side. and will lessen
the difference in distance between
New York and Boston by water about
1870 miles. 1t will be large enough for
the largest vessels afoat and II Is
expected that 1t will be completed In
1912, though this statement is doubted
by some. as trouble his been had with
several contractors who have failed
to complete their work.-Utiea OBJ

sy Tiles Now,

Laying the drains should be done
before ihe ground freezes 1t is fin
ished quicker and is easier work. Dig
to depth OF TWO and one-half feet, as
reports from Rothamstead experiment
station in England give that as the
best depth for the drains. Carefully
lay the tiles, as poorly laid drains get
clogged and the result Is a water log
ged soil
The benefits derived by the soil
from good drainage are invaluable. It
removes excessive water. which
causes pudding on a clay soil. and
turns a water-logged soil into a warm
and early soil. Spring rains warm up
a welldrained soil which favors the
early growth of crops. Another ben
eft is aeration through the soil. Roots
in seeking food require oxygen. and
the nutrlfying bacteria flourish In such
soil.
