intelligence of Man is Enabling Him
to Become Master of Nature and
the Seasons.

BY degrees man is becoming mas
ter of the seasons. Light and cleo
tricity are being pressed into his serv-
ice. and he can already force on plant
growth so rapidly that he can peat
the ordinary process of Nature by
many weeks.
One method is to treat seed, be-
fore planting it, with small doses OF
high-tensiOn electricity. In 1910 trial
was made of this method near Burn
ham-On-CrOuch, in Essex, England.
Spring wheat is usually s0wn in March
or April. On this occasion the wheat
of which the seed had been treated
by this special process, was not sown
until July 10. It was up in five days,
and on September 16 was in ear. II
was reaped IL weeks from the time II
was sown, whereas the ordinary time
for wheat TO mature in that country
| is IS weeks.
Another method Of forcing crops is
to run a current Of electricity through
overhead wires. In this way the yield
of oats and beans has been nearly dou
bled. Experiments tried last year al
Lincluden Mains farm in Dumfries
shire, were practically successful. A
] third method is to use artificial light
either electric or, better still, acety
J lene. Plants are thus made to grow
by night as well as by day. Cabbage:
and lettuce are easily forced in THU
way, but other plants such as carrots
seem to resent II. Flowers bloom ear
Her under artificial light. and are NOR
brilliant.

"JacqueIine Of Golden River"

and fghting-the basis Of all
good romance. It is no preach
n1ent in story form; no sex
problem novel; no propaganda
under the guise Of fiction. II is a
real romance and its purpose is
70 entertain. And, as II love,
adventure and fighting were not
enough, a most expressing mys-
terry Of hidden treasure gives
reason for the plot and action.
The heroine is beautiful, fasci-
nating-and mysterious. The
hero, freed from city drudeery
by a legacy, is ripe for adVen-
ture and when it comes en-
braces il whole-heartedly. And
such an adventure as II proves
TO be! II begins in a big city
and swiftly the scene changes to
the Canadian wilds. Action at
every stage and the mystery
deepening with each new deVel-
opment!-Editors Note.
