 In many cases, worker can double the work done by the use of larger implement and co?respondingly greater amount of motive power, and sometimes the gain is considerably more than this. If the nature of the work and the machinery for doing it are such that the best implements will increase the efficiency of the worker by only 10 or even 25 per cent. their use may make possible an increase in acreage hy just that amount, and at least will enable the farmer tu do his work in less time and allow him te take advantage of good weather if the season k unfnvorable.

MIGHT BE PUT TO GOOD USE
Propagation Of Bladderwort Suggested
as Means of Diminishing Plague
Of Mosquitoes.

Not long ago, says the Milwaukee
Journal, Prof. w. E Ringle, natural
ist Of Pittsburg, Kan. discovered in
a Kansas creek bladderwort, plant
that is usually found In more northern
streams. He took it to his laboratory
and placed 1t In a Jar that contained
several small tadpoles, In order to
aerate the water and do away with
the necessity Of changing 1t so often.
The tadpoles quickly began to disap-
pear In a mysterious manner. An In
vestigation resulted in the surprising
discovery that the small balloons on
the plant were traps and tombs for
the tadpoles. The plant had devoured
them. If 1t would consume tadpoles,
there is no reason why 1t should not
devour "wiggle-tailS," the larvae of the
mosquito, the naturalist thinks. One
way of Kidding a community Of mosqui-
toes. therefore, appears to be to propa-
gate the bladderwort In pools and
streams.

Stokers Act Of Bravery.

In these days Of undersea warfare.
when the blow is often struck without
warning, new danger is added to the
already hazardous tasks Of the ships
f1remen. Speed Is an essential in
beating the U-boat, and this requires
constant work. Recently the bottom

on a vessel Of the United States navy.
One Of the crew was Aloysius Fawcett,
a fireman. first class. With two others
he made his way through steam-f1lled

he helped haul the fires at a critical

Poor digestion and assimila- \

means an accumulation Of waste

From the Detroit Newa.
While the war is not yet over, the
American Y. NJ. C. A. and brother or
ganizations among the allies have al
ready won praise from the highest
military commanders for their work
in maintaining the spirit Of the armies
of democracy.
This great organisation originated
In an invitation extended by George
williams. . London drygoods mer-
chant, to his young man employees to
meet in an upper room OF his store
for a period Of Bible study and prayer.
This was In 1874. The meetings
were so successful that larger and
better quarters ware secured ana
other young men were invited to Join.
Similar associations were formed in
other English cities. In 1881 the
movement reached America, that year
witnessing the formation Of the T. NJ.
G, A. branches in Montreal and Bos-
ton.
In 1854 tho first international con-
ference met in Paris, with delegates
present from America, Canada, Eng
land and several countries Of coutt-
mental Europe. There are now 10000
branches In the world, Of which 2,1s2
are In North America. The inter-
