A VICTIM OF HONOR.-A keen,
or better, maybe, an active, sense of
honor is a gift-a troublesome gift
and not an acquisition. 1t indicates
the most exalted and beautiful form
of mOnOmania, and that, too, often
over an object possessing only some
or none Of the virtues endowed. DR..
Sachs was martyr to it.. His wife
shares in his nobility as being of the
very few capable of feeling them
selves benefited by helping others.
The very presence Of such people is
a benediction to their kind and OBJ
jects of maleVoIence to the deVOtees
of pOrk-barrelism in any way.
But why should he, like Kpling's
fool, have tried to win Chicago's
pork-barreI-poIitics vampire over to
his great idealistic undertaking when
by every indication she proved her
self incapable of honor and under
standing? His act of suicide is just
the thing any being like her would
glOat over.
Carried into the domain of sex ro-
nance this simile calls to mind a
cunning, selfish woman and her usual
victim, a good man. She plays the
game by leading him on to make all
the moves, but woe to him if he
makes the wrong move! She has just
enough brain to know that he is the
superior, but not enough to appre-
ciate, to understand him. His duty
then is clearly to live and indicate
that superiority. Just when he is
most ready to sigh, 81 am weary!''

is surely when it is darkest; and yet

and the right to vote before any Of
the sO-calIed righteous states? The
MOrmons with all their faults are
manlier than all the anti-sUffrage
men in the country.
The chUrchy communities seem to
be the least willing that women
should vote. Why is it? The church
teaches obedience and this means
the direct opposite of liberty. Men
are afraid of the power that women
hand over to the clergy, and if men
gave women the right to vote it
would be the same thing as giving
the clergy the control of all politics.
If women will sever their relations
with all church influence and do their
own religious thinking as well as po-
litical thinking I believe they will
win the vote quite easily. - Allen

PRIZE BABIES. We may weigh

POISON SPRAY FOR
The YOUNG BORERS
Common Chemical May Be Used
to Advantage in Destroying
Insects on Trees.

Common spray chemical may be
used to great advantage on the trunks
of trees at definite periods for borers.
When the trunk is kept well covered
with thin film of poison, the young
borer, soon after Matching, will eat of
this upon entering the bark, and his
first meal will end him at once. AS the
period of Matching extends over sew
eral months, during which time the
bark on the trunks cracks from the
expansion beneath it due. to growth,
the application of poison must be made
more frequently.
Before June 1 or as early thereafter
as possible, make thorough search
of all trees for borers. Apple-tree
borers are usually found above ground
and these are best destroyed by in
jecting a few drops of carbon bisul-
phate into their tunnels and plugging
them tight with soft clay or putty.
Remove the earth to the depth of four
to six inches about peach trees and
cut out all borers possible with the
pruning knife.
After thus removing all borers that
can be found spray or paint the trunks
of the trees with a mixture of eight
to ten pounds lead arsenateFpaste and
so gallons of dilute lime-sulphur solu-
ton, one part to four or FIVE of water.
Mound the earth about the trees to
the height of six or eight inches. Re-
peat the application about the middle
of July and again in the middle of Au-
gust. This application is preventive
measure and not a remedy for the Dor
ers already in the tree.

NECESSARY WORK IN
GARDEN AND ORCHARD
Growing Fruits Depend Largely
Upon Bees to Help Distribute
Pollen Among Trees.

Horticulture and agriculture are very
closely related. Growing fruits de-
ponds very largely upon bees to help
distribute pollen from one tree to an
other and not leave every flower de-
pendent upon it's pollen or fertiliza-
ton. Then the flowers of fruit trees
and the cover crops in the orchard
provide honey for the bees.
We are as farmers beginning to APP
preciate the INTERPOLATION of the vari-
Gus divisions of agriculture and are
therefore making better use of our OPP
portunities as farmers.
Taking flowers for instance. They
beautify the home grounds, provide
honey for bees and give the mother
and daughters outdoor exercise, ex-
perience with plants and a love for
the ethical and beautiful. This makes
the keeper of the home better COM
panion, which of course encourages
the farm manager to do his best farm
ing.
The garden and the orchard teach
very valuable lessons in intensive
cultivation. In the garden, the or
chard and the flower beds one sees
the advantages and opportunities for
using manure; application OF ferti-
lizer; mulching, intensive tillage; Sc
lection, training of plants and many
other things that might not be OBJ
served in the field.

MakInn a Hens Nest.

Next time you find a nest of eggs
which hen has stolen away, take a
lesson in the proper architecture Of
such structure. 1t may save few
broken eggs or poor hatch the next
time you proceed to set a hen in your
own clumsy, human fashion. The key
note of the stolen nest is its fiattened,
shallow design. This is the way ma
ture has demanded it should be con-
structed to give the best result. How
different from the deep, followed out
contraption into which so many peo-
pie pile the eggs they expect Biddy
to transform into downy chicks. A
nest. to prove satisfactory, should be
shallow enough to permit hen to
turn her eggs properly. 1t should be
fiat enough to permit the newly
Matched chicks to lie where they are
when released from the shell, instead
of sliding down into the bottom and
having the eggs roll on top of them

they pass the examination for the
eighth grade. There were nine boys
in the first graduating class. The
youngsters were very happy when
presented with diplomas.
The graduates who remain at the
school will be at once placed in high
school work. Those who are paroled
will be placed in homes with the un-

Spray the apple trees Immediately
after the blossoms or petals fall in
order to fill each little calyx cup or
cavity with poison. About three
fourths of the codling moth worms
which hatch from eggs three or four
weeks later enter the apples through
this cavity. II we succeed in putting
a few grains of arsenic in each little
calyx cup the first meal the apple
worm takes will be its last one.
Since the calyx cups stand wide
open for only week or ten days, the
spray must be applied within this time
in order to be effective.
What to Use.
Commercial lime sulphur at the rate
of liz gallons to so gallons of water,
and arsenate Of lead paste at the rate
of 2 or 2h pounds to each so gallons
of spray mixture should be used.
The trees should not be sprayed
while in full bloom. Such work would
interfere with pollination, without
which fruit cannot set, and destroy the

thirds of the petals have fallen, be-

New Astronomical Belief.

A new astronomical belief is that
there are not only dark stars in space
but dark nebulae. The dark stars are
invisible, revealing themselves only
by their effect on the motion or light
of bright stars, but dark nebulae may
be visible as unlighted masses show
ing against the feeble luminous back
ground of space. Prof. e. e. Barnard
notes that many striking dark patches
of sky, hitherto supposed to be simply
starless regions, may be really dark
nebulae. The case of Kinds nebula
in Taurus, which is now feebly visible
after completely fading away from a
state of conspicuous brilliancy. shows
that a nebula may lose its light and
perhaps may have never had any light.

claims the distinction of being the first
in the province to sell a carload Of
hogs at the high price Of eleven cents

made a short time ago at Calgary, and
at the time was record, although
prices have since gone as high as
$11.121s per hundredweight. With
such prices available for hogs the
farmer has a market for everything
his farm produces, as there is prac-
tically no farm product which cannot
be converted into good hog flesh. The

OA|RY|NG IN
WESTERN CANADA
Accompanying Industries Also
Prove Highly Profitable.

The cheese industry throughout
western Canada today is in highly
flourishing condition and is bound in
very short time to become much
more important. The war has created
a great demand for that article, and
its use abroad has given it lot of
useful advertising. The article known
as Canadian cheese is now sought not
only by the soldier in the trenches,
but by the ordinary civilian consumer,
who, having used 1t, Is quick to ap-
preciate it's value. This means that
after the war there will be demand
created for it that would not other
wise have been. Up to the present
the war needs have limited the local
supply, but with the increased effort
that is now being put forth 1t is hoped
that this will be met. AS matter of
course the prices are high, and the
farmers who contribute to the cheese
factories are making money.
The cheese season is now fully open
and there is every prospect of an ex-
cellent year because the high price
which obtained last year will undoubt-
eddy be maintained this season. West
ern Canada has all the natural re-
sources for the making of cheese, the
feed and the cool nights, two things
essential, and in time 1t is bound to
become one of the finest cheese coun-
tries of the continent.
The lower foothills Of Alberta, used
only at the present time as ranges or
for no purpose, will In time produce
cheese IN great quantities, and doubt
less will soon equal the famous up
lands of Denmark.
The cool nights mean the better
keeping of milk and cream and
cheese. and that is great thing for
the industry, especially when COM
bined with possibilities Of cattle feed
such as exist ON the long slopes from
the Rockies eastward.
The hog market, which may be
classed as an adjunct of farming, is
an exceedingly good one, and the low
cost at which the feed can be pro-
duced, coupled with the high prices
realized, make this industry very prof.

One Of the first thoughts that occur
to the mind of the average prospective
settler Is the likelihood of suitable
markets. In this connection the fol-
lowing table will be Illuminating. It
is supplied by the P. Burns company,
packers and exporters. of Calgary, and
shows the average monthly price paid
for hogs for the six years 1910 to 1915
inclusive. When one considers the low
initial cost of the land and the small
overhead cost of maintenance and

Hy WILLIAM A. RADFoRD.

Mr.. william A. Radford will answe
questions and give advice FREE OF
COST on all subjects pertaining to tho
subject of building. for the readers of this
paper On account of his wide experience
as Editor, Author and Manufacturer, he
Is, without doubt. the highest authority
on all these subjects. Address all inquiries
to William A. Radford. No. 1927 Prairie

The bungalow shown here is de-
signed to be very suitable for a cold
climate. This result is secured by
building the bungalow far enough
above grade so that a good basement
can be constructed, with the necessary
heating plant.
The low effect of the bungalow is
retained In way that is used consid-
erably in all bungalow construction in
the colder climates The foundation
Ii not carried UP to the level of the
main floor but Is stopped at grade,
with the woodwork used from this
point up to the caves. This type Of
construction often saves money, but
the main object in building in this
way is to hold the building down as
close to the ground as possible in or
der to retain the best features Of artis-
tic bungalow construction.
The rooms are thus raised well
above the ground. which is good fea-
ture, as it makes it possible to keep
the rooms dry with less effort than is

required when the floors are at the
ground level. This method of con-
struction illustrates one of the many
changes that have been made in
bungalows in fitting them to condi-
tons.
A basement in connection with a
bungalow that is to be used the year
round Is of even more importance
than cellar in a larger house. Bunga-
lows are made as compact as possible,
so that there is no extra space for the
many things around house. For this
reason the room that is provided in
cellar is more appreciated than 1t
would be otherwise. The bungalow
generally covers more ground than a
house, which makes It possible to
have large basement that can be
partitioned off into rooms for different
purposes. A cold storage room, laun-
dry and furnace room and bins for fuel
should be provided. Very often cor
ner Of the basement is finished off
with small bench SO that this part
can be used as workshop.
The exterior of this bungalow is
finished In an unusually attractive
way. The walls from the roof down
to grade are shingied in alternate
wide and narrow courses, which gives
a handsome lined effect. The roofs
are made quite fiat and the various
projecting gables are distinctive fea-
lures. The trim Is all In white.

ing spray with high pressure should
be used in order to force the poison
down deep into the calyx cups.
Most Important Spray.
This is the most important single
spray of the season. 1t not only con-
trolls the first brood larvae of the cod
ling moth, but it also prevents, to a
great extent, the losses occasioned by
the later broods of the best. 1t is also
an important spray in controlling the
lesser apple worm, plum curculio,
cankerworm, apple scab, black rot
and other less important insect pests
and fungous diseases.
Later Sprays Necessary.
The next spray should be applied
about two or three weeks after the
calyx spray. This will be about the
time the majority of the first brood
codling moth eggs are Matching, and
IL the surface Of the leaves and fruit
is thickly peppered with the poison
GUS spray many of the worms will be
killed by feeding slightly before they
reach the blossom end of the little ap-
pie. Since this is also the first impor-
tant spray against apple blotch, Dor
deaux mixture should be used with the
arsenate of lead If this disease is
prevalent in the orchard.
About eight or nine weeks after the
blossom or calyx spray the third APP
plication should be made, using the

The dining room is connected to the

blend in together, the woodwork and
general plan of the rooms should be
designed to match so as to form
harmonious combination. The design

entitled to exercise the franchise or
to become members of the city's gov

nowadays to little more than a pub

tory goes back to the medieval days
when 1t was a notable and valuable
gift. When the custom originated
there was no general recognition Of
the right of freedom of domicile, and
cities were more like private corpora
