Repairing Broken Trees
tBy Gordon g. Brown)

During the past season many trees
have been split wide open at he crotch
because of an excess load of fruit. The
recent snow has also been responsible
for much of the damage.
Such trees are in danger of heart-rot
unless precautions are taken to pre-
vent fungus growth. The wood is di-
rectly exposed to the elements and
there is little to prevent such fungus
growths from obtaining hold Grow
ers may be inclined to take the view
that since pruning wounds as a rule do
not develop rot fungus it follows that
wood exposed as a result of a split is
likewise equally resistant. The writer
would take exception to this opinion.
because pruning wounds if properly
made are in direct line with the cam
blum tissue and heal over rapidly. A
smooth surface dries out readily and
thus conditions are favorable for re
siStance to decay. On the other hand

The writer suggests that before
imds are restored to natural position
copper tacks or nails be driven directly
into the exposed wood These tacks,
when left in the wood permanently,

Constipation

Most laXatives and cathartics afford
only temporary relief and should be
used only for that purpose. When you
want permanent relief take Chamber
laiu's Tablets and be careful to observe
The directions with each package.
These tablets not only move the bow
els, but improve the appetite and
strengthen the digestion.

RED CROSS TO
AVOID FRAUDS
Different System Will Be
Used in Financially Aid
ing Service Men.

AS a result of the impositions on
the Red Cross made by some men who
have returned from military service
and some who have not, a more care
full method of procedure in aiding
stranded men will be followed from
now IN, according to ]. B. Wineman,
chairman of the home service section
in this city.
A number of men in the service and
cut, have imposed upon the gener-
osity of the Red Cross here as well
as in other districts and throughout
the entire country this organization
will look up the record of men seek
ing assistance, more carefully.
Mr.. Wineman stated today that the
Home Service section of the Red
Cross is anxious to give any aid
which will be of real benefit to re-
turning men. Unfortunately there
are some men who are taking the OPP
portunity to tout the country at the
expense of the Red Cross.
1--WE do not want to take away Red
Cross assistance from those who are
stranded because of some emergency
on account of others abusing this
privilege Of coming to the Home
Service Section"
Hereafter when stranded men re-
quest transportation or other financial
assistance from the home service Sec
ton the chairman Of the service will
wire the Red Cross chapter in which
the mar claims residence, asking that
the mans statement be verified and
the loan guaranteed. This method
will help the service to plan the
wisest cours for the man and his
family and will also do away largely
with the possibility Of fraud.

Newly Developed
Grain Will Extend
Wheat Belt North

Prince Albert. sask., Sept. TO-
Seager Wheeler, whose Selected
farm nea Rosthern is the most ia
nous 160 acre tract in Canada, studied
the map.
Here" said he. as he traced a line,
the northern frontier Of the whea,
belt ends where the early frosts begin.
wheat, l could move the wheat belt
100 miles north"
Red fife wheat was then the staple
wheat of Canada. From red fife, after
years of experiment, Wheeler evolved
Marquis wheat. 1t ripened a week
earlier and usurped the red flies
place as the most popular wheat in
Canada.
White Bobs Wheat Born.
Marquis extended the wheat from
tier north but not 100 miles. 81 again
the wizard turned to his alchemy and
Kitchener wheat was born. 1t was
heavier headed than Marquis and
stood up more sturdily under hail but
1t ripened in exactly the same time.
A sample Of wheat called White
Bobs found its way to Canada from
Australia in 1905. Wheeler obtained
some seed. The wheat ripened a week
earlier than Marquis or Kitchener but
1t was white and white wheat is barred
from the higher grades in Canada.
Gets Red Grains.
Wheeler tried in, vain for three
years to tut 1t into red wheat. He
determinedsto try nee more. AS his
crop was ripening, he walked through
the field looking for red ears. He
found none. He was leaving the field
when a fine large ear Haunted itself
in his face. He shipped it OF and
Eshelled out the grains. They were
red.
He planted the red seed next year.
Most Of the crop was red. He planted
the red seed again and the entire crop
was red.
Red Bobs iced was distributed
throughout western Canada this
spring. Experts predict 1t will push
the limits of the wheat belt 100 miles
farther north.

G0EPERS SURE US. WILL NOT
 BAR REFUGEES

New York. July 1o-Explaining the of Labor on immigration, Samuel Gompers last evening told the dele gates of the convention of the Pan- American Federation of Labor that he did not believe the United States would at any time exclude from this country the wives and minor children of Russians and other Europeans now here.
 He further declared 1t to be his opinion that 1t might not be neces- sary to restrict immigration for the period of four years first suggested by the American Federation of Labor
 MT. Gompers' talk on Immigration was in response to tho request of l. N. Monores. Mexican delegute. who presented a resolution asking that the representatives of the Amer ican Federation of Labor in tho con vention explain the apparent incon- eistency between the declaration of fraternity of the first congress of the Pan-Amertcan Federation and the recent declaration of the American Federation of Labor against all irn- migration. This declaration was coupled with the specific statement that 1t applied to Mexico.
 Tn answering this, Mir. Gompers re- viewed the course of immigration to shhs country since Colonial days In 11tc years he said industrial trusts, v-osr rfnr with steamship companies, l-i COT ractei with large numbers of Foreigners for service in mines, steel mills, packing plants and other works, with the result that these laborers were held for years in virtual slav- cry"
 This influx. he said, before the war had menaced the standards of living uf the American workman and made at impossible to organize the steel and packing industries. Now. he said, some progress is being made. With peace q new problem---tlat of caring for the returned soriier---had arisen.
 Our first move" said he. Ifs to see 1hat those who were willing to give np their lives for the freedom of oth- CTS shall have jobs, and that the American shall have the right to a. lob before the man who comes here from any other country"
 On the Atlantic and the Pacific he said there was a threat of immfsra- ton that would orprwhelm the Amer ican workers.
 ''T7lis is a critical time" he went on. We must protect ourselves or be over passed. America will again be come the homo of those who of their own volition may geek to come here. That time will come, probably within 1our years, when the restrictions now necessary can be removed
