PROUD HE'S A FARMER.

But that was mostly when the far

promptly said that he would rather

he was prepared to prove his right to
that digniiied and desirable title. He
showed an account sale of Il good lot

averaged LEO pounds and sold ut
$40. In as much as these cattle cost
him $l.75 little more than three

directly connected with the crowning
Of King George.
The coronation rehearsal was as the
ceremony will be performed on Thurs
day.
The Shakespearean ball was a nota-
Bile affair. King George and Queen
Mary and nearly all the members of
royalty were present.
The state banquet at Buckingham
palace was the most elaborate of the
kind ever given in London.
Aside from these main events there
were large number of lesser features
constantly occurring incident to the
continuous arrival of distinguished
foreigners and the innumerable semi
official dinners, garden parties, recep-
tions, exhibitions and private events
which have sprung up in connection
with the coronation festivities.
The rehearsal of the coronation cere
mony was a practice of the more i'm
portant parts, with the king, the queen
and the archbishop of Canterbury go
ing through their respective roles. The
dean of Westminster read a part of
the service to make sure that the roy
alties were familiar with the words
and found both were letter perfect
The king first went through the cere-
mony, asking many questions as to
the correct positions at certain parts of
the service, and then Queen Mary, at

esses who viii act as train bearers

monial of her crowning.

Gets Homes for
Many Children.

The New Jersey Children's Home
has received since its organization l.
700 children for placement in private
families. The reports of the secretary
show that during the past year the
society has aided over 1900 children.
140 new children were received during
the past year, 9S of whom were legally
committed to the society for place
ment in permanent homes. 1879 chill
dren were placed in family homes
isduring the past year.
In addition to this, 794 children
were assisted through the Aid Depart
ment. and as, the society has in fam
lily homes, most of them under super
vision, about $50 children, it will be
seen that over 1900 children have
been materially aided by the society
during the past twelve months.
A special effort is being made to
find some person who will provide the
society with suitable fire-proof re-
ceiving. home, possibly as lDemor-
ial.
The work of this society is sustained
entirely by voluntary contributions
Any willing to aid in this work for the
children can send their contribution
of any kind to this New Jersey Chill
dren's Home Society, Trenton, New

MAKING WAX.

Between ten and twelve barrels Of
wax a day is being extracted froft
oil at the Uncle Sam reflneries below
town. If you want to see the paraf1n
plant In operation any day is your op-
portunity. When one sees the nat
ural oil as 1t is when pumped from
the wells in the ground, he can hard
ly imagine there is anything in it that
ls palatable. After the Uncle Sam
people have wrestlsd with it for a
time q wax is extracted that Is al
most as good as chewing gum. In
fact, 1t is made into chewing gum.
Add little vanilla and sugar to the
wax and the result is a gum as good
as can be bought at the stores for
f1ve cents for five sticks. Chewing
gum is made from similar wax and
part of the product of the Uncle Sam
plant is being sold to gum manufac-
turers. The wax is used for dozens of
different purposes. Wax is used on
nearly all electrical wires as an In
kulation- One cable that stretches
Across the bed Of the Atlantic Ocean
contains 5000 tons of wax. Ten or
twelve barrels Of wax represent
about 200 barrels Of oil. When the
pipe line is completed the capacity Of
the plant will be increased to between
500 and 800 barrels of oil a day, ar
even more.

Then the wax Is taken out Of It The
oil that remains is refined and treat

Several dozen different grades of oil
are made at the Uncle Sam plant. The
oil is first passed through pipes where
the temperature ranges in the vicinity
of rs deg. below zero. This causes
the wax to gather and then it is liter
ally squeezed out of the Oil IN Inn
mense presses. The pipes through
which the oil is passed at the plant
and in which the temperature is be-
low zero are covered with frost to
the depth Of three and four inches.
Inside the pipes are other smaller
pipes through which brine flows. The
brine extracts the heat. A force Of

ENGLAND AND THE RECIPROCITY PACT.

TT N her trade relations with the United States Canada is under
no obligation to submit to the Judgment of the mother coun.
try. She is entirely independent in that respect. English
products imported into Canada are tariff taxed, just the same as
if they had come from Germany, France or the United States, and
while in certain respects Canada gives preferences to English man
ufactures she does so voluntarily and in accordance with her own
fiscal policy. The discussion of the matter of American and Cana
dian trade reciprocity in the British Parliament cannot, there.
fore, affect the policy or acts of Canada, except only through senti-
ment. But Canadian sentiment looks through Canadian selfin
terest, which is too plainly benefited by the tariff pact with the
United States to listen favorably to suggestions from the other side
of the Atlantic. Evidently the main inspiration for English criti-
csm of the action taken by Canada arises from the fear of it's
possible effect upon the future of the British Empire and the re.
Iations between Canada and the United Kingdom. If Canada chose
to separate from the British Empire, whether to become a sep
arate nation or to be annexed to the United States, Great Britain
would not forbid, yet Canada is, outside of the United Kingdom, the
most important part of the empire. England depends upon the
Canadian provinces for her food supply, and to some extent for
military assistance in time of war, while the Canadian railroads
are a convenient means Of reaching the Pacific.

A VICTORY OVER MOTHERS AND BABES

TT T is partly true, as boosted by a rural contemporary in middle
Jersey, that the farmers won two substantial victories in the
Legislature by the defeat of the reciprocity automobile bill
in the Senate and the passage of the milk standard bill in the
House. Both were characteristic, and one was on a par with the
other in reason, justice and decency. The Senate vote defeating
reciprocity wa a surprise TO every thinking man In the State. 1t
was an exhibition of narrowDess of vision and insensibiity to
State pride such as New Jersey has reason to deplore. The vote
in the House on the part of the representatives of cities and towns
was absolutely stupid. The demand for this bill came from selfish
interests, the men who maintain diaries and sell milk. The State
expends a large sum annually for the purpose of watching these
men, to compel them to keep their diaries clean and to forbear
adulterating their milk with water. Many deaths have been caused
in this State from typhoid fever, and many deaths of infants
we're due to neglect or sharp practses by dairymen. The bill
passed by the House of Assembly is a blow at the public health.
The present law regulating the sale of milk requires a reasonable
standard of quality. This bill permits the dairyman TO add a GER
tain per cent. of water to his milk before he sells il. The standard
is reduced to enable him to DO so. The city man who voted for
this surprising bill did SO in culpable ignorance or in utter reck-
lessness of its effect upon human life in the State. He voted for a
lot of selfish traders and against the welfare of the babies of the
State Every mother in New Jersey condemns that vote as utterly
heartless. Yes, the farmers of New Jersey "won two substantial
victories in the Legislature and one of them was a victory over
the mothers and babes of New Jersey.
