"Dominlon" of Canada.


 We are accustomed to take the ex- pression of the Dominion" of Canada for granted: but the original of that somewhat unusual word is known to very few. When at length the great scheme of Sir John Macdonald was realized, and the nine provinces grouped themselves together into one great confederation. serious diff culty was presented by the choice of a suitable name. For a time almost a deadlock ensued.
 At length one old member of par liament rose from his seat and told his colleagues that he had read in his Bible that very morning the words: His dominion Lhall be from the one sea to the other" Accord ingly he suggested that Canada should be known as the Dominion, or Gods Land. The suggestion seized upon the hearts and imaginations of those pres ent and it was promptly acted upon

SUFFRAGE-PRO AND CON
Pro.


 The Conuecticut Woman Suffrage Association is undertaking two new campaigns to be carried during the next few weeks. They are to cover New Haven and Hartford countries and it hoped that they will result in the complete organization these two conn. ties for woman suffrage. In the con- plete organization of these two counties for woman suffrage. In New Hlven C1uuty the work is being carried on under the direction of Mrs. Carlos F. Stoddard, chairman of New Haven county on the Board of the C. W. $. A. Under her the principal worker will be Miss Katherine Mullen, who has now thrown her entire energies into suffrage work. The city of New Haven is already we'll organized and excellent work has been done there in the cause of votes for women. There are several suffrage leagues in the city and all these organization will help in the work of exten ling suffrage organiza. tion to the smaller towns and cities.
 Similar work will be done in Hart ford county under the direction ot the chairman. Miss Mary Bulkley. In this country the organizer will be Mrs. John Allen, of Saybro1k. who showed her ability in the work at the state and county fairs. The reason for devoting time and energy in particular to these two counties is that the vote for the suffrage amendment n the House of Representatives shovel the need Of n4ore work in these sections of the state. IT Hartford and New Haven counties had given majority for the amendment it would have been carried through the legislature. The c. W. s. A. therefore in its efforts to secure a favorable majority in the next legisla. ture feel that it is necessary to get much stronger backing in the cities and small towns of Hartford and New Haven counties. Windham County gave a handsome majority for the amendment and Litchfield County was almost equally divided. It was the adverse majorities in Hartford and New Haven counties that caused the defeat of amendment and the c. W. $. A. with its usual political sagacity in- tends to put in its work where it is needed and where it tell most strongly.

Chased by Crazy Auto.

A large touring car with three occu- pants, temporarily stalled Sunday af. ternoon on Main street South Windsor, in front of the home of Miss Elizabeth Penton, came suddenly to life when one of the two male passengers crank. ed it and, failing to run over him, pur. sued him in divers directions down the street while the two people on its seats, man and a woman. clung together and cried aloud for help, says the Courant.
 To the best of the memory of the oldest inhabitant such a thing has not happened before. with the exception of "nigger chasers' on the Fourth of July, and people ran out of their houses to watch the frantically fleeing man dodge hither and thither, the auto always in chase. After the car had gone a short space, the man in the back seat appar- ently woke up and tried to stop it, but he evidently got hold of the wrong lever for the car added burst of speed and shot up on the lawn of Hill c. Longs house, ending its wild career to the de- triment of several clapboards and con- ductor pipe. The car hit the house with such force that the man and woman, who are described as young, were thrown out and slightly injured, but they went off in their car and did not stop for medical aid. MT. Long notified the Hartford police that he would like to have the identity of the party ascertained.

TO SPREAD OR PILE MANURE
Answer to Question 10 Largely One Of
Location-Much Loss Sustained
by Broadcast Scattering.
(By ALVIN KEYSER, Colorado Expert
WY ment StatiOn.) 81

(By ALVIN KEYSER, Colorado Experi-
ment Station.) 81
The question frequently arises,
Should manure be spread, thinly over
the land in winter when it is hauled,
or should it be dumped in piles to be
scattered in the spring., The answer
to the question is largely one of loea-
ton. In a great deal Of Colorado ter
ritory the winters are dry, with dry,
very windy springs. Where such con-
ditlons normally prevail scattering
manure broadcast on the land during
the winter means. that the manure will
dry out and frequently be blown
away by the first heavy spring wind
storm. 49, !
Dropping in piles to be hand scat.
tered later saves q part Of this loss
Where snow is on the ground and.
where winds are not a menace, or.
where conditions permit disking the
scattered manure into the top SOIL
this loss by blowing is. prevented;
From the standpoint Of labor, drop
ping In piles increases the labor. From
the standpoint of saving the manure
It sometimes saves an appreciable per.
centage, while broadcast scattering
would lose all of 1t. The farmer will
have to decide these questions for
himself in his own localities, based
upon the points above enumerated.

ton it is at present possible to measure
the sootfall of any city as accurately.

ured. Already this SCOT gauge, tried
out in England, has proved what the
tourist long suspected, that London.
with all it's yellow fog, has far purer
air than the North of England factory
cities of Birmingham, Manchester and
the like. Not only have Pittsburgh and
other s%landered American cities the
opportunity to whiten their sooted
regulations, but the manufacturer, too,
may now establish accurately the ex-
act proportion Of his contribution to
the civic SCOT; for the new device

The difficulties which Demosthenes
surmounted before he became a great

that many Of our modern great orators
did not reel or their speeches as flu.

Henry Clay was never at a loss for a

With Mr.. Webster it was different, and
he often would hesitate and then rub
his nos with the bent knuckles of his

Mr.. Calhoun, when at a loss for a

his large, turned-over shirt collar, and
then run his bony fingers through his
long, gray hair until it stood up like
