THE ALAND ISLANDS.

Though many Of the problems that
are presented for adjustment by the
peace conference may be considered
small ones they. are nevertheless Civ
ing the delegates no little anxiety.
Among those which have not been dis
po.ed Of is that concerning the Aland
islands, a group of islands strategical-
" situated off Sweden and once be-
longing to it. but a part of Finland for
the past century.
Naturally Finland wants to retain
them but Sweden is asking the peace
conference 10 determine their future
status. and in doing so desires that
the people of the islands be allowed to
say through a plebiscite what action
should be taken F'inland's claim is
confined to the fact that it is now in
possession and the islands are poilu-
cally a part of it.
Though belonging to Finland the is
lands are closer to Sweden and in the
po-sess;on of an enemy they arc a de-
cided menace to Stockholm. 1t is thus
not surprising that Sweden should be
anxious to have control. but in addi-
ton it's contention has the support OF
the fact that the population is for the
most part Swedish. Yet Sweden does
not seek the islands for the purpose
Of maintaining a military and naval
stronghold for when It asks that the
| league of nations determine the future
status it likewise seeks to have il
provided that the islands shall never
| be fortified
! If the point Of self determination is
going to be adhered TO it would appear
| that the Swedish claim is one that
seems the more likely to succeed.

VOTE AT ToDAY's ELECTION.

No election. no matter how many
officials are to be elected or what the
offices are that arc to be filed, should
be neglected by the voters. Too often
is it the case that the lack of inter-
est on the part Of large part of the
voters is responsible for the placing
in Office Of men who are more con-
cerned with what they are going to
get out of it than what they are going
to put into it. more interested in
plucking the plums than in putting
the municipality on a businesslike
basis
Today Norwich elects city officials
who viii serve for the ensuing two
years. The fact that it is year when
no mayor is elected should make no
difference in the interest.
il is certainly not the time TO stay
at home or overlook the responsibility
that rests on the shoulders of every
voter.
II is not an occasion when one
should wait to be sent for but when
the interest in securing efficiency in
matters which concern each and every
one should be sufficient to cause all
who can get there TO go to the polls
and participate in bringing about the
change that is so greatly needed.
The republicans have placed before
the voters a ticket that cannot fail TO
inspire confidence and support. 1t is
for the good of the city that they
should be elected and there are good
reasons to believe, with the general
dissatisfaction that exists. that II there
is large and representative vote they
will be elected.
The decision rests with those who
arc directly interested and they should
get to the polls and vote. 1t is their
luty to themselves, their neighbors and
he city.

Thin curtains will keep clean long
er if protected from rubbing against
window castings and screens when the
windows are open. Sew snap fasten-

prepared by the United States Depart
ment Of Agriculture.)
One Of the most important consider
ations in planting home orchard Is
the selection Of kinds Of fruits and
varieties Of those kinds which will do
well in the locality where they are to
be grown. While many of the long
established nurseries are selling their
stock through travelling agents whose
integrity is unquestioned, 1t Is better
as rule for q grower to deal directly
with nurserymen than through agents.
Place orders early and deal only with
reliable nurserymen.
In selecting varieties prospective
planter should avail himself Of the
suggestions Of experienced fruit grow
ers in his community, his state agri-
cultural college or the United States
department of agriculture. In Farm
ers' Bulletin 1901, recently published
by the department, the country Is d.
vided into II districts and the most
desirable fruit varieties are given for
each district. 1t will be sent free on

Firing Charges by Electricity.
The electrical method of firing blasts
is beginning to be extensively used. In
firing charges by this method the fol.
lowing equipment Is needed: One
blasting machine, 800 feet Of double
leading wire to reach from the stumps
to the blasting machine, some connect
ing wire to connect the stumps togeth-
er in series, and electric detonators
in place OF the caps and fuses used in
ordinary blasting. Firing by electric
ity has many advantages over the cap
and fuse method. The danger of pre-
mature explosions Is greatly reduced
and the danger from delayed explo-
sions is entirely eliminated. Proba-
bly, more people have been injured in
stump blasting by too hasty investiga-
tion of a delayed explosion than from
any other cause. When using the cap
and fuse method, the safe rule to fol-
low when charge does not explode
as expected Is to keep away from the
locality until the next day. Where
the stumps have been severely burned,
are badly decayed, hollow, have several
large spreading roots or where it is
necessary to blast stumps so near to
each other that the explosion Of
charge under one stump would loosen
the earth under the adjacent one, the
use of the blasting machine will save
dynamite and result in better work
being done than If the cap and fuse
are used. II the stumps have been
partially burned out by any Of the
burning processes previously described,
the roots can best be blown out by fir
ing the charges with blasting ma.

To be possessed of head of heavy,

wavy and free from dandruff Is merely
a matter of using little Danderine.
1t is easy and inexpensive to have
nice, soft hair and lots of it. Just get
small bottle of Knowlton's Danderine
now--it costs but few cents-all drug
stores recommend it-apply little as
directed and within ten minutes there
will be an appearance Of abundance,
freshness, flUfiiness and an incompara-
BILE gloss and lustre, and try as you
will you cannot find trace of dandruff
or falling hair; but your real surprise
will be after about two weeks use,
when you will see new hair-flne and
downy at first-yes-but really new
hair-sprouting out all over your scalp
-Danderine Is, we believe, the only
sure hair grswer, destroyer of dam
druff and cure for itchy scalp, and 1t
never fails to stop falling hair ut once.
If you want to prove how pretty and
soft your hair really is, moisten cloth
with a little Danderine and carefully
draw 1t through your hair-taking one
small strand at time. Your hair will
be soft, glossy and beautiful in just
a few moments-a delightful surprise
awaits everyone who tries this. Adv.
