ton, and not met with attempts on
the part of some to spread misleading
statements. The Dominion Govern
ment has not taken steps to deny
many of the false statements circu-
lated by these who evidently are more
interested in injuring Canada than
benefiting those who would be bene-
fitted by taking up farms in Canada,
but In order to correct a mighty er-
roneous impression that conscription
is carried on in Canada. that compul'
sorry military service Is employed, and
that there is restraint as to the move
ment of those not Canadians. the ne
cessity is felt of giving as much pub
licity as possible to a denial of these
statements
An item to which special exception
is taken is one which says:
They are sending them away as
rapidly as possible: but the young
men are not permitted to leave Can
ada. All the citizens, and those who
have taken out hCTnesteads are subject
to military duty"
In direct REPUTATION of this, we beg
to quote from a recent editorial In the
Rochester, N. Y. Herald:
There is no legal process by which
Great Britain can command a single
Canadian soldier to enter the field in
her aid or even in her most needful
defense. Great Britain cannot legally
take dollar of Canada's money for
this or any other war without Can
ada's consent All must he given vol
UNFAIRLY. If it be given at all. Yet
men and dollars are given to the limit
of Canada's power to give, just as If
Great Britain had both physical and
legal power to exact them. Indeed,
it is possible that they are giving
more freely in this way, for what a
man gives because he wants to give
is likely to be greater than what he
gives under force.
"All in all it is a noble picture OF
devotion to her motherland which
Canada offers to the gaze of her ad-
miring and envious neighbors."
Canada's invitation for immigration
extends to all who are willing to go
on to the farms.

"Why, what ere you doing here"

Waiting for the potatoes to come

We'll, you come on into the house.
You've scared us all half to death
Unwilingly she took granddad' s

Suddenly she broke away and ran

cool return pipe must incline toward
the heater from the lowest part OF
the hot-water reservoir: otherwise
steam will gather In the pipes and a
disagreeable kicking will be kept up
as long as the water tries to circulate.
The carrying OF hot water in the
pipes depends or what Is called the
principle OF the circulation Of hot wa
ter. Warm water is lighter than cold
water, and 1t quickly finds Its way to
the top, so that in practice the water
is continually circulating through the
pipes. Where long hot-water pipes
are used a return Is necessary to pre-.
vent the water cooling too much in
the pipes; but in small house this Is
not necessary. The cooking range
would be In the kitchen directly under

One result of the European War has

urlng institutions of the United
states. commercial enterprises have
oeen affected, business of many kinds
1ave been hampered, and financial
'trlngency has been forced on almost
every community. 1t is not only be-
cause 1t has brought these things
ABOUT and created lot Of hardship,
out there is the outstanding fact OF
the terrible loss of life, the great de-
struction of property, and the disrup-
tlon of everything near and dear to
nose whose countries are involved In
the war that makes the whole affair
highly regrettable. The heart OF the
entire world goes out in sympathy to
those within the area Of the trouble.
Arrangements have been made to ref
lieve the distress by money and other
means. But there is one great thing
wheat and flour-that the European
countries will need. The wheat-pro-
ducing countries are no longer pro-
ducing, and there is the gravest rea-
son to fear that they will not be for
some years. In this case, it would be
fully as beneficial and charitable to
make provision to meet the loss OF
Europes grain crop by encouraging a
greatly increased growth on this con-
tinent.
The wheat-growing sections of the
United States have about reached
their limit Of production, and this
source cannot be depended upon to
meet a great deal of the demand that
there will be for some years. The
only country that is in position to
meet it s-Canada-that portion
known as Western Canada. Here
there are millions of acres of land,
capable of producing from 20 to 40
bushels per acre All this land is ex-
cellent for wheat, and very much Is
still in the hands Of the Dominion
Government and 100 acres Of 1t can
