New Type Of AirpIane.

A new type Of alrplane has been
planned and constructed by an officer
in the Swedish army, Lieutenant Won
Porat. 1t differs from ordinary types
in that 1t is made entirely of steel
and woven fabrics, with the exception
OF the propeller, which is of wood,
and in the arrangement of the wings.
The lower plane Of the machine
which is scout byplane with some
resemblance to the rokker type-lies
for three-quarters of its width back
of the upper plane, instead of being
directly under 1t, as I'M most machines.
The especial advantage claimed fol
the new airplane lies In Its climbint
ability, which is declared to be 3.O0t
feet In four to five minutes. Its speed
is 100 miles an honr. The motor 10 Of
100 horse power.

temperature be found trifie high.
and the other way is to turn the eggs
slowly to inhale fresh air and to con-
fine the real cooling to one or two
periods when eggs have been incu-
bated 15 and IL days and to cool them
down until the shells are actually cold.
The best matches are often the result
of such cooling, especially in warm

SCIENTIST MAKES PATRIOTIC OFFER

President Richard Cockburn Mac

services of the Massachusetts Institute

terminated relations with Germany.
This meant the services of the entire

trained men In laboratories of the

SALOON DEAD ENEMY OF LABOR,

Organized labor should be opposed
TO the saloon because the interests of
the saloon are always opposed to the
interests of the worldngman.
The way to find out whether or not
organized labor can afford to stand for
the saloon is 10 find out what organ
ized labor itself stands for, and then
see how the saloon comes up to its
standards.
Organized labor believes In better
Jobs for the workingman, in greater
lefhAency, in increased wages, in the
abolition of child labor, in the dignity
and elevation of womanhood, and In
the preservation of the home.
The saloon breaks everyone of these
tandards.-Charles StelZle.

as content to sit on the ground as they
were on the nest.
ut is a mistake to starve broody
hen. She should be well fed at this
time, so that she will be ready to lay
when turned out. Avoid fattening the
hen while breaking her up. Give a
limited amount of grains and a liberal
supply of milk and table scraps. Care
should be taken to turn the hens out
as soon as they are broken up"

BUSINESS GOOD
IN CANADA
No Financial Depression, and
None Since The War Began.

A well-known correspondent Of an
important Western daily paper recent
ly made an extended visit to Western
Canada, and in summing up the re-
suits, after going thoroughly into con-
dtions there, says there is no financial
depression in Canada, nor has there
been anything of the sort since the
war began. Anyone who has watched
the barometer of trade, and seen the
bank clearings Of the different cities
grow and continue to grow will have
arrived at the same conclusion. Tho
trade statistics reveal q like situation.
The progress that the farmers are
making is highly satisfactory. AS this
correspondent says: at Is true there
have been adaptations to meet new
conditions, and taxes have been re-
vised, and that very large burden Of
added expense in many lines has been
assumed, but it has all been done me-
thodcally, carefully and with full re-
gard for the resources to be called on.
"That this has been done fairly and
wisely Is proved by the present COM
Portable financial position.
with the exception of restricted
area in the east, Canada is not an In
dustrial country. The greater portion
Of the Dominion must be classed as
agricultural area, with only an inflni-
tesimal part of it fully developed.
Lacking complete development, the
agricultural portion of Canada has
naturally placed its main dependence
upon fewer resources than would be
the case in the States. Even In peace
times, business would be subject to
more frequent and wider fluctuations.
due to the narrower foundation upon
which II rests.
"Thus, Canada has been able to
come up to the war with efficiency and
sufficiency and to maintain and even
advance its civilian activities.
"Canada's first element of financial
strength lay In its branch bank sys-
tenn. This system has two great ad-
vantages: 1t makes the financial re-
sources Of the Dominion fluid so that
supplies of capital can run quickly
from the high spots to the low spots;
also, It places at the command of each
individual branch the combined re-
sources Of the whole Institution 90
that there is an efficient safeguard
against severe strain at any one
point.
Here in Winnipeg. the all-Canada
banking houses maintain big, strong
branches and, as elsewhere In tho
Dominion, these held to an attitude Of
saneness and solidity that prevented
even the start Of any financial dis
turbance.
That business generally is now com
Ing strong on an even keel is largely
due to the absolute refusal Of tho
banks, both branch and independent,
to exhibit the slightest signs Of ex-
element or apprehensiveness.
"For all Canada the savings bank
figures are astonishing. Beginning with
1913, they are, for the fiscal year end

AS DESTRUCTIVE AS. WHISKY.

Doctor Struempell, a German physi'
ologist of high standing, does not toll
crate for n moment the suggestion
that beer is less OF social enemy
than other liquors. lie says:
Nothing is more erroneous from the
physicians standpoint than TO think of
diminishing the destructive effects OF
alcoholism by substituting beer for
other alcoholic drinks, or that the vic
tins of drink are found only In those
countries where whisky helps the peo-
pie Of low grade OF culture TO forget
their poverty and misery"

AUTHORITY ON ARMY'S HEALTH

When statistics are extreme
enough one way or the other, they are
capable Of reassuring or disturbing
the most unmathematlcal of persons.
A striking illustration Of that is found
In the official hgHrcs showing the cas-
ualtles Of Canadian troops since the
beginning Of the war, which have re.
Gently been the subject Of comment by
Surgeon General Gorras. The total
of wounded, missing, and dead from
all causes Is S0,S43, but the whole num-
ber of deaths from sickness in camp
and trench has been only 40 officers
and 1,101 men, or 1,2I0 all told. On
the other hand, 1920 officers and men
have been killed in action and 5,242
have Gled of wounds, making total
OF 20,S71 deaths due TO gunfire. To
that sum should be added 1919 Of
"those presumed to be dead" making
the deaths from all causes 23,630.
