ONE OF f. L. pH1LIPP's PLEDGES.


1.-The convention which nominated
me on June 20 adopted. a plank in OPP
position to the present state policy OF
reforestration. | am opposed to the
project on the ground that there can
be no return within reasonable time,
and maintain that as a state under
taking it is not businesslike use of
the peoples money. The state has
purchased upwards of 100000 acres
Of land for demonstration purposes.
The cost of operation for the year 1918
was over $34, 600. 1t has been urged
that the purchase of land be increased
to a million or more acres. 1t may
reasonably be expected that the cost
OF operation will be correspondingly
increased should the purchase be
made. Inasmucb as it will require a
long time, probably hundred years,
before there can be any returns, it can
easily be seen that the investment
will be large"

not get away from me. / can't de-
scribe - you my feelings just then. l
imagine they were something like
those of miser when there is a pos
sibility of his losing his gold.
At that time the bear was worth
world.
Considering the situation carefully,
found that l would have to break
away some of the lashing in order to
get at the animal. But l had to be
careful not to break away too much,
so l made an aperture just big enough
for him to stick his head out.
Before doing this 1 got hornbeam
club, which 1 held in readiness.
Presently out came the nose Of the
bear. 1 made a vicious swing and
missed him. My presence so enraged
the animal that he struggled around,
trying frantically to escape. Again his
head came up through the torn place
in the cover, and this time l landed
squarely on top of it.
But you can't kill a bear by hitting
him over the head. You must strike
him on the nose. 1 knew that, and
just waited my chance.
AS looked down at him feeling OF
pity came over me at the method l
was forced to use. But how else could
1 do it? Pretty soon he stuck out his
front paws. l swung and hit them
With a cry of pain he pulled them
back.
Keeping my eyes on the bear every
minute. l backed away to tree and
broke off a small limb covered with
leaves. Returning to the trap, 1 tore
away another lashing.
With my left hand l began to dan
gle the leaves on the end Of the branch
in his face to divert his attention so
that l could deliver a blow with the
club.
In his anger a good part of his nose
came out. l swung my club, landing
on the side of the bears nose. The

linoleum's Story.-Do you know
that the linoleum you walk over each
day represents products from all the
continents?
We will begin with the cork, which
largely comes from North Africa.
Here the bark is stripped from the
trunk. and larger branches of the cork
tree when they attain the age of 25
years.
The cork is conveyed from the for
est to the nearest boiling station to be
boiled in huge vats until the rough,
woody part can be scraped off and the
bark rendered pliable. 1t is next
shipped to Spain and trimmed there
into il dozen grades or more, rebaled
and sent to the linoleum factories.
Linseed oil, from which linoleum
derives its name. is obtained from
naXseed, largely grown in Russia and
the Argentine. The flax is similarly
threshcd to wheat when the crop is
ripe. The seed is sent to an oil-crush-
ing centre, cleaned and the oil eX-
tracted by means of crushing the seed
between corrugated steel rollers. Then
1t is filtered. tanked and sent to the
linoleum factories.
Burlap, which acts as cohesive
power to the other ingredients of
linoleum, is derived from jute. in In
dia. Packed in bales it is shipped to
Dundee to be further treated into bur-
lap, and then to the factories for the
purpose of backing the linoleum.
Australia is one of the countries
which supply pigments for the color
ing of linoleum.-London Answers.
