MAKING LAKEPoRrs sEApoRrs.

For a considerable time efforts have been put forth in behalf of bettering the transportation facilities of the northern states. The idea is to develop the ca nal and river systems so that the lake ports can virtually become seaports, and ship direct by way of the St. Lawrence river.
 At the Great Lakes-St. Lawrence tide water congress at Detroit this plan has been given the enthusiastic support of Herbert c. Hoover who sees big oppor- tunity for bettering the transportation facilities in connection with the distri- button of facilities. He recognizes the fact that it would cost money but he does not rate it as exorbitant, but such as it would be it would mean much in in- creased prosperity to more than a dozen states would be an economical move fol the farmer and would result in decreaS ing the cost of food.
 What those whose scheme is endorsed by MT. Hoover would like to do is tc make it possible for goods to be ship directly too and from the lake ports ir large vessels such as those which ply the lakes now. This would save much handling and decrease expense. It would likewise mean that goods for export would not have to go through Atlantic coast ports but direct relieving traffic or the railroads and the Erie canal by mak- ing it possible to utilize the St. Law renee. What is moved that way now would be only fly speck to what is pro- posed, but it is to be realized that this means sending our goods through Can ada and over route closed by ice dur. ing number of months.
 The project is one that deserves to be thoroughly studied. The possible disad vantages as we'll as the recognized ad vantages need to be ferreted out and considered. Such an outlay as will be required is not one that should be gone into with closed eyes The enthusiastic support given to the plan by MT Hoover is helpful and it can be expected that i will have it's good influence. One notice able fact is that it has the endorsement of the business men of Canada as we'll al of the United States.

CLEANED FROM FOREIGN
 EXCHANGES.

The railway rates advisory committee has now received exact instructions as to the revenue which has to be found by increased rates and fares. The def- ciency from April 1, 1920, amounts to no less than f54,500,000 a year, and in one way or another this amount has to be made good. The deficiency is due to a variety of causes now all-too-familiar The first is the rise in wages to the rail waymen themselves! the second is Nthe rise in wages to the miners, increasing the cost of coal; a third is the rise in wages to workers in various subsidiary industries, which has affected the cost of materials. The people who will have to meet the bill will be, firstly, the whole travelling public, and, secondly, the whole body of consumers, to whom will be handed on the increase in the rates for transporting goods, if these rates should be increased. At present it seems prob able that the burden will have to be borne by an increase in the ordinary fares, in season tickets, in railway ac- commodation at the docks, and in work mems fares The last are not likely te escape and it rests with the advisory committee to determine the amount.
 A Castle for the Prince.-If the city council acquire Cardiff Castle and offer it as residence for the Prince of Wales he Will have very beautiful and state ly Welsh home. Parts of the castle are very ancient, dating from Roman days some of it is Norman, and much belongs to later feudal times. But the residential part has been modernized by successive holders of the Bute marquisate.
 Near East Barred.-Despite passport and other difficulties of transit. thous- ands are journeying to France and Elan ders this summer to visit the military cemeteries. Work on many of these Gar dens of Sleep has been completed, and the troops are being withdrawn. Those whc have friends and relatives buried in Sy- ria,, Gallipol, Palestine, or indeed, in any part of the Near East, will be unable to visit the graves this year. Not only are most of the cemeteries still in their wartime condition, but the countries of the east are not yet amenable to tourist traffic.
 A Reindeer Reserve.-None too soon the Canadian government have decided te preserve some of the remaining herds of caribou, the barren ground reindeer of the Arctic Baffinland has been chosen for the reservation, where the caribou will be able to roam unrestricted and te multiply. Less than 30 years ago there were vast numbers of caribou in North ern Alaska, but by the cupidity of the trader and the ignorance of the Eskimo they were destroyed, as the buffalo wa: destroyed as the buffalo was destroyed in the western states of America. There is scarcely anything manufactured which can equal caribou skin as an article o1 clothing, and the meat is still more valu

and carried about easily, which is an
 advantage. It should be placed on a
 chair or a box, never on the floor.
 A feather pillow is not suitable for a
 mattress or for the baby's head. Use
 an old, soft comforter or rdinary mat tress of hair, felt or cotton, protected by rubber shooting, light oil cloth or paper blanket. Since rubber or oil
 cloth is hard and uncomfortable, a soft washable pad should be used di- frectly underneath the sheet Table felting makes an excellent pad for this purpose.
 The young baby will breathe more easily and take a larger supply of air into his lungs if no pillow is used. 1 A clean soft folded napkin may be placed under his head. Toward the end of the second year, a thin hair 1 pillow may be used. Basket-The basket for the baby S toilet is best of white enamel. An or dinary wicker basket painted white is better than one lined with cotton or ] silk material and decorated with rib

 have a few good things than lot of material which will be used and of poor quality.
 The basket should contain: l Pure white castillo soap. l Unscented talcum powder. i OHve oil or tube vaseline. Boric acid, powder and solution. Four dozen safety pins of different

THE HORRORS OF COUNTRY LIFE

How I dread the days just now when it will get warm and melt" burst out the Hyde Park man in deeply mournful tones.
 Tt does make bad walking" agreed his friend from Woodlawn, deftly slipping into the seat by the car win dow toward which the other was trust fully headed.
 Does it?p asked the Hyde Park man absently. But that isn't my trouble. could stand wet feet, but blame me if I can stand this country bee of Imo- gene's! The instant it begins to get soppy in the spring that woman, takes on a faraway look in her eyes and talks about how nice it will be when we get out little place in the country.
 She knows perfectly fell that we never shall have little place in the country unless I am first chloroformed and taken there and clanped firmly to a post in the front yard. l have ex- plained many times to her that when she resides on her country estate her companion will not be the tall hand some man with brains to whom she is now married, but some little shrimp who escaped the lunatic asylum by two jumps; somebody who is fond of curry an obstrepurous calf when he might be playing golf.
 If one were making his living out in the country that would be a differ ent affair, but just living out there with a few of the trimmings on the sid, compressed into a 200 foot lot, is a proposition to make a strong man tremble. When the family COW can by a twist of her meek reach over and de- your the entire corn patch and when all the six hens have to indulge in two hops and three bites and the tomato crop disappears, to say nothing of the whole radish crop vanishing if the lawn mower runs two feet beyond the edge of the grass, the point is beyond me!
 And then, so many things happen to you when you are just living in the country. Once when I was young and single my best friend got married and took a gem of a little place outside of town That was how he described it. before he had lived in it. Afterward all that anybody had to do if he had a fancy to see by friend turn purple in splotches and moan like dying lamb was to inquire solocitously how he was enjoying his home in the outskirts.
 Just as soon as the weather hit zero the pipes would burst inopportunely
