New steriIizina AGENT.

German scientists have found that
glycerin is valuable sterilizing
agent Various deadly germs, when
heated in it to temperature of 24S
degrees Fahrenheit, were completely
killed in one minute. This process is
particularly valuable for sterilizing
surgical instruments, for the reason
that the metal is not attacked nor is
the temper affected. Rubber tubes
can be sterilized in it, and. instead of
being injured. the elasticity of those
which have become brittle is restored
by the treatment.

HIGH PRICES
GOOD CROPS
And Good Demand for All Farm
Products.

1t is no new experience for settlers
located in a fertile country such as
Western Canada, where lands may be
bought at very reasonable prices, to
harvest crop that in one season pays
the entire cost of their farm. Undoubt-
eddy this was the experience of many
farmers during 1915, but one instance
may be quoted. A settler who came
to Canada from the United States
some years ago decided to add to his
holdings by buying an adjoining quar-
ter section near his home at Warner,
at $4,000 an acre, with terms spread
over period of years. He got the
land into a good state of cultivation
and last spring put the whole quarter
section in wheat. When the crop was
threshed he found that 1t only took
half the wheat on the farm to pay the
whole purchase price of it; in short
a single years crop paid the cost of
the land, paid all the expenses of OPP
Grafton and left him a handsome sur
plus as profit. This settler had some
adjoining land, and his whole wheat
crop for the season amounted to
over $4,000 bushels. He is now plan
ming to obtain some sheep and invest
his profits in live stock which will as
sure him good living irrespective Of
what the season may happen to be.
Canada's financial position is ex-
cellent. All speculation has been elm
mated, and trading is done on cash
basis, with restricted credit.
Detailed figures OF Canada's trade
for twelve months ending October 81
show how the war is forcing Canadian
trade into new channels One of the
most extraordinary changes is in COM
merce with the United States. A
couple Of years ago Canada imported
from the United States two or three
hundred million dollars worth Of
goods more than she exported. The
balance of trade was all with the
United States. The balance is rapid
iy disappearing, and the present out
look is that by the end Of this year
Canada will have exported to the
United States more than she has inn
ported.
The figures for the past four years
are Illuminating. They are as fol-
lows:
Wauwatosa news. [volume] (Wauwatosa, Wis.) 1900-1948, 1916-03-24

-Four years ago, in 1912, the balance
of trade in favor of the United
States was no less than two hundred
and sixty-seven millions, and this
year, the balance is reduced to only
thirty-two millions The figures are
extraordinary and reflect the changed
and new conditions in Canada. 1t
looks as if for the first time in nearly
half century this year Canada will
sell more to the United States than

The Tines Union, in an article
headed, History as it is Made" COM
pletely disposes Of the myth that has
been so widely circulated of late
years that Frederick the Great and
Prussia were devoted friends of Wash

article fits history very closely. The
only disinterested friend of any prom
inence America had in Europe during
the Revolution was the young French
man, Lafayette. Other Frenchmen or
less prominence were inspired by him
to side with America, and France
and Frenchmen became our strug-

The. king of France, however, aided
America in order to hurt his most
hated enemy, England; and Frederick
the Great sympathized with Washing

annoyance to England, which country
was then the object of Frederick

1t has come to light that the great
Russian drive against Austria started
ia month ahead of time because Italy
sent rifles to arm Russia's new troops.
Italy had million rifles in reserve
that there seemed to be no immediate
need for, and shipped them to Russia
thru Archangel. Before they reached
the Russian soldiers, the Germans
learned of the shipment and at once
instigated the Austrians to make a
drive against the Italians. In order
to do this, large numbers of Austrian
troops were drawn from the Russian
front and sent to the Italian, and the
drive started Immediately after that
seemed for awhile about to overrun
all Northern Italy. But the Russians
guessed what had happened and start
ed a drive of their own, which smash
ed the Austrian line in their front and
compelled the troops of the dual EN-.
pire to return to the east, too late
however, to stop the Muscovite adj
vance.

BELLEvIEW

Belleview, Aug. 8.-Messrs. Lee
Suggs and Frank Greenhaulght, two
farmer boys from west of town, listen
ed to the siren voice of Recruiting Of
ficer Blalock as he blew into town last
Friday afternoon. The officer stopped
Gates oil tank wagon and piled one
of the boys on top of the tank, while
the other one climbed onto the rear
seat Of the officers motorcycle, and
with feet dangling off they sped to
join the army.
Talking about this mobilization ex-
citement am willing to make p rash
guess as follows: that the Second Reg
iment now encamped at Black Point
will not see the Mexican border, the
state Of Texas or go beyond the bor-
der of the state Of Florida. The time
has passed. Nevertheless the encamp-
ment is one Of the best things that
ever happened for every man in the
entire regiment.
B6fleview was honored by short
visit from Rev. Sidney J. Cats, DEM
ocratic nominee for governor, last
Thursday afternoon. He was on his
way to Leesburg, where he expected
to speak that night, and in returning
he was to stop at Oklawaha and tell
the yeomapry of that delightful pre-
cinct the why and wherefores Of his
continued campaign Friday afternoon.

turned last Thursday from a delight

opposed the governments policy in
driving the colonies into rebellion.
And for that there were a great many
Englishmen in the continental army,
men who came to America to better
their condition, and even some who
fought with the colonies simply from
their idea of fairness. The German
soldiers who were in the American
army sold their services to America
as they would have sold them to any
other nation. They did good work,
and this country cannot too highly
honor the names of DeKalb and

ENGLISH OPINION OF
HUGHES ACCEPTANCE

The following from the Toronto
Mail and Empire probably expresses
the British and French opinion of Mr..
Hughes as a candidate for the presi-
dency:
Hughes and Wilson
The attitude of ex-Chief Justice
Charles E. Hughes toward Germany
and the Entente Allies in their con-
troversies with the United States has
been purposely obscure. In his first
broadside at the Wilson administra-
ton, accepting the republican nomi-
nation, he still covers over his dispo-
sition. He assails President Wilson's
wordiness In dealing with Germany,
and blares forth a call for the cham
pionship of United States rights, by
whomsoever violated, but he dexter
ously keeps away from the vital
ground of what he would have done
had he, in the White House, had to
deal with the concrete promlems
faced by Mr.. Wilson.
Political strategy would require the
republican candidate to veil his pre-
dispositions in the earlier part of the
campaign, at least, while attacking
the course of the president on all of
its many vulnerable points. In SER
les of difficult positions such as were
presented to Mr.. Wilson, any policy
adopted would be open to sharp crit
icisms. 1t was morally impossible to
devise a course not objectionable in
some important feature. There was
always the risk of war, which the
president wisely tried to shun, and
the necessity of holding Germany in
its proper place. No doubt the presi-
dent wasted much notepaper, and
used grave" diplomatic language
when the fist to back it up was hang
ing loosely. But when Mr.. Wilson
finally made up his mind to break off
diplomatic relations he made it up
firmly enough, and Germany had to
crawl on the submarine issue, in the
face Of a strongly united support of
the president by the United States
people. Looking back now, at the
submarine controversy, and at the
twin results achieved German back
down and the maintenance of peace
the people of the United States have
good reason to feel satisfied with the
administration attorneyship for
them in the crisis. No doubt Presi-
dent Wilson missed great moral OPP
portunity when he failed to protest, in
the name of international good faith,
against the violation of Belgian neu-
trality, but even Mr.. Hughes does not
dare criticise him for that absentation.
So far as the Allies are concerner,
Mr.. Hughes, il elected, might not be
more disposed to put real difficulties
in their way than Mr.. Wilson has
been. But the Allies at least know
Mr.. Wilson, his ideas and policies, his
reasonableness and his cautious mod
Grafton. All they could ask, now that
Germany has been forced to stop
wholesale and ruthless submarine
warfare, is that they be left as free
as possible to finish their work.
They would not fare better at the
hands of a republican president in that
respect.

with the two very able senators from
Florida, and it seldom does so. It
thinks, however, that they are taking
the wrong position on the child labor
bill. Florida has good, tho not too
good, law on the subject, but it
doesn't help the children in some
other states.
