4 CONTRAST IN TYPES

written Specially for The Bulletin.)
It simphf7ed the vacation problem
for Becky and her chum Dora when
the natron in charge OF the settle
ment in their neigflborhood sent them
word by Becky's little brother Davie
that she had two Country Week tick
cts left for them
All the long year Becky worked in
a big department. store, where she
displayed hosiery OF varying qualities
and prices with an art to lure intend
ing buyers.
Dora was naflliner's apprentice and
handy errand girl in another store, only
q few blocks from Beeky's; SO that
they were able to go to work together
and often to see each other at lunch.
II was a splendid thing. this proffer
of two wiaoie weeks free on New
England farm; and the matron later
implied that s0me charitable women
were ready to help toward their feil-
read fare. That would leave a tiny
margin for new clothes.
II seemed additional good luck. thai
the girls were able to secure the same
two weeks for vacation
Tsea Dora's uncle in PhiiadeIphia
died and she went with her parents
to the funeral, finally deciding to re-
main there for a fortnight, since she
could not afford to pay even a por-
ton of her train fare into the coun-
try.
So Becky, who hal 30 other reaEy

on the journey up to Blueberry juno

loaned her his suitcase. to hold he1

U. S. Faces Danger of
Famine, Botanist Says

Chicago, June 16.-There is 8
grave danger that a famine will
descend upon the United States
sometime in the near future, ac-
cording to Prof John NJ. Coult-
er, head of the Department of
Botany of Chicago University.
Population here, said the pro-
lessor, is increasing 20 times
faster than the food SUPPLY.
"We ought to have enough
foodstuffs in this country to
feed the world" said Prof.
Coulter. "Instead, we soon
shall not have enough to feed
ourselves. This growing dis
crepancy between food produc-
ton and population is the basis
of the high cost of living.
"We should develop scientific
methods of soil cultivation. We
must manipulate the soil proper
ly, and farm intensively,. as the
Europeans do. By scientific
treatment of the soil crops can
be increased 300 per cent in the
United States"

Ducks are especially suscepti-

and one should never attempt to
raise them unless they have

blocks so that the chicks can go

can be easily employed. Farm

IN view r. II. Fricke, food and

is put on at the Missouri State
Far an exhibition Of pure foods
and drugs made in Missouri. The
old exhibit Of impure and mis-
labeled and misbranded foods
and drugs collected during the
first eight years of the life Of
the present food and drug act is
no longer to be trotted out to
impress Missourians and others
that about all Missourians get is
an inferior brand Of edibles. In
stead Commissioner Fricke, at
State Fair September Is to o.
tober 2, is to show the resources
Of Missouri IA pure food and
drugs, a condition brought
about by a rigid enforcement Of
the pure food and drug act of
the state. He will give moving
picture exhibits of how Missouri
bakeries, canning factories,
packing houses and other such
institutions put up or make pure
foods and then he will show the
interior Of several Of the big no.
tel kitchens showing how these
food products are cooked, thus
guaranteeing their freedom
from ptomaine poison and
germs. This is unique meth
cd of demonstrating the work of
the department and will elimi-
nate the old time idea of the pre-
valence Of impure foods in Mis-
souri,, induced by the old tine
Of unlawfully canned or
prepared articles.

them were for the proposition

Canada Pays Big Bounties

The game department Of Brit
ish Columbia paid out $21, 900 in
1914 to hunters, trappers and
settlers as a reward for killing
wolves, cougars and coyotes.
Bounties were given at the rate
of $15 a head for cougars and
wolves and So apiece for coy
otes. Bounties were claimed on
1882 wolves, $50 cougars and A.
1873 coyotes. The Atlin and
Skeena districts secured most of
the wolf bounties. The largest
number of cougars were killed
in the Richmond district, near
Vancouver, no less than twenty
seven having been shot within
the city limits. Columbia and
Lillooet report the greatest num-
Der of coyotes, 754 bounties be-
ing claimed by the former and
794 in the last named district.
Kamloops reported ga coyotes
and thirteen wolves.

lieves the lives of thousands of
deer will be preserved. 1t is es,
timated that one fill grown
cougar requires the equivalent
of one deer each week for food
and as these big felines prey up
on the young deer, the destruc-
ton is great, especially in the
breeding season, as the wolves
and cougars kill many fawns
while they are quite young.
