Hom James A. Robb, Dominion Minister of Finance, is credited with the

terse comment, “Canada is on easy street,” when making announcement last |

month that even before due date, the Treasury had paid off $22,000,000 of the $53,000,000 short term bonds falling due on October 15, last, and that the balance would be paid On due date out of cash on hand in the Treasury. Even so, said Mr. Robb, there would be “some left over,” and he had reason to hope, “if Providence continues kind to us and gives us good crops, and business keeps just &s good as it is now, without even getting any better,” to take care of further maturities coming along from now till 1933.

In other words, out of current revenues and without having to resort to the issue of refunding loans, Canada was able to pay off $53,000,000 of its public debt this yeay. And this does not represent the full amount of the debt reduction that has been effected this year, with a consequent lowering of the interest burden.

In the short period of six years the public debt has been reduced to an extent that means a lessening of the burden of interest annually in an amount of almost $15,000,000. And if Mr! Robb’s expectations for the next jive years are realized an equally large, or even larger, amount will be lopped oft by 1933.

The most gratifying feature, however, is that this substantial reduction in debt and in annual interest charges has been achieved, not as a result of increased taxation, but concurrent with a general decrease in taxation, in- cluding lowering of tariff schedutes, a lighter tax on business profits, reduc- tions in the sales tax, smaller income taxes, reduced postage rates, smaller stamp levies on cheques, and the abolition of stamp duties on receipts, In a

A Delicate Operation

Eye Is Successfully Grafted On

Person Who Regains Sight One of the most delicate operations known to medical science proved at least partially successful when Bert Ferguson. of New York City, once blind, looked . dimly at the world

| through another man’s eye.

Ferguson's one eye failed him sey- eral weeks ago and doctors, in an ef- fort to restore his sight, decided to transplant the gornea from another eye.

Charles Greenblatt, whose eye was removed because of a tumor, offered

tals kcen. a revister_of pergons|farmer and helper, have been. ar.|it.to. the surgeons. and the cornea,

to Ferguson's member. The medical world awaited the re-

| sult anxiously and there was great

interest today when the bandages were removed. . Ferguson was able to distinguish objects ten feet away. Surgeons said the development of sight and the permanent success of the operation would depend upon the ability of Fer- guson’s optic tissue to nourish the cells of the grafted cornea.

Throws Jet Of Hot Water From Six-| ty To Seventy Feet

The largest known geyser in the world is to be found in Yellowstone Park in the United States. It is a Ti+}. tan of its kind, hurling water in all directons and -reachng an average Height of 60 to 70 feet, while occas- ional spurts reach 100 feet, Its cra- ter is a huge ellipse, 100 by 120 feet in its two diameters, and 8 feet deep.

The volume of hot water it ejects is tremendous, and the run off pours through a 4-foot gap to a depth of 8 inches at a rate of 120 feet per min- ute. The spurts continue at fifteen or twenty-second intervals for three or more hours, and it stages two of these long eruptive periods every twenty-four hours.

When an eruption ceases the gey- ser crater is dry, with the exception of a small fissure and several boiling mud springs along the north edge. The end of the eruption comes as suddenly as its beginning, and the last of the violent steam explosions seem to be as energetic as at first.

The device has been patented by Harrison and his sponsor, Councillor Thomas Wood, a manufacturer of St, Helen’s. The Mail says that the in- vention has attracted keen attention ftom the government which is testing it.

It predicts that if the claims, which are contrary to all previous theories, are substantiated all present methods of manufacture and distribution of electricity will become opsolete.

LIGHT RATES NOT SATISFACTORY

October was the first month under the new scale of rates being charged by the United Bictric & Engineering Co., and when the householders and business men Of Bassano received their electric Hght accounts for that} ‘month the bills were eagerly scanned | t to see how they Compared with the charges made under the old system.

A very substantial reduction was noticed in the charges for domesic services. In all cases where more than the minimum amount was charged there was a considerable re- duction on the rate previously paid.

But the rate for commercial ser- vices, that is, restaurants, hotels, hospital, stores, offices, and other places of business, Wag found to be| as not entirely satisfactory, Although in most cases the charges were less than those under the old scale of rates, the reduction Was not so great as expected. In one instance, that of the’ Bassano Municipal Hospital, the electric account for October amount- ed to more under the new scale of rates than wouldvhave been charged under the old scale.

This is due to the method of calcu- lating the service charge and current consumption charge, How to figure |S the electric light account of a given |p business service’ requires a know-(@ ledge of watts, Watt capacity, kilo-| 7% watts, installed wattage, and other |/ij} technical knowledge which the lay-| 3% man does not possess, |

The consumers’ understanding of | a the charges to be made under the new electric rates was that there would be a reduction of 26 per cent to nearly 40 per cent on the old rates. The actual working out of the new rates proves this to. be er- roneous so far as commercial service is concerned. :

Many business pen of Bassano are|§ dissatisfied with the ‘new , electric light charges. Previous to the adop- tion of the new rates ‘commercial ronsumers were pot given accurate information on what their electric current accountg would amount to under the new system of charges. They expected a substantial reduc- tion, and they are not getting it, - The matter is deserving of the careful consideration of the United Electric & Engineering Co, They should investigate the trouble and make an adjustment if the sompany is found to be at fault,

And fault there must be somewhere when one service pays more under the new system of rates than it would under the old system.

Jaddttion of merle tich feed of an- frval origin, such as tankage or milk.

The average results obtained in two ‘ests at this farm, show that hogs. (without.pasture) fed a meal ration containing ten per cent digester tank- ege gained twenty-six per cent more than the hogs in the check lot that were fed the meal ration only. In the same tests, the hogs fed butter- milk and the meal ration gained forty-six per cent.more than those in the cherk lot. Not only were the gains made more rapidly but also more economically.

$12.42 per hundred, while those fed tankage gained one hundred pounds

.| at a cost of $9.77, and when milk fed

the cost was reduced to $7.20,

In other tests with hogs on good pasture, the results show the margin of profit in feeding » protein supple- ment to be decreased. In four tests condurted with hogs on bare lots and on pasture the average results show that one pound of tankage replaced slightly over three pounds of meal and one pound of milk replaced ap- proximately one third of a pound of meal. In comparing the meal equiv- alent of tankage and milk, it was found hat one pound of tankage is equal in feeding value to 8.8 pounds of milk. The ration used in these tests was a mixture of meals from the coarse grains and mill feed,

In a feeding trial to test the value of tankage in the ration for nursing sows, che three sows receiving ten pte cent tankage in their ration lost

ten pounds per sow less than those fed the meal ration only. The young pigs suckled by the sows fed tankage

by the sows in the check lot.

‘test ‘indicates’ ‘the economy of feeding a protein supplement for the purpose of giving the suckling pigg a good start, and for keeping the sows from losing weight rapidly. The latter point is especially important where the two-litter-a-year followed.

This is the world-wide belief that vherever suffering and ill health be ‘ound, from any cause whatsoever, there is the bounden duty of the Red Cross collectively or individually, to alleviate it.

The simplicity of this faith ig not always apparent in a world that hurries on, too pressed with its own affairs to see the suffering child by the wayside, robbed of his birthright

of health and strength. The world all too frequently “passes by on the other side,’ and leaves the sufferer to his misery.

Not so the Red (Cross Society. Theirs is the order of the kind deed, the pledge of the friendly hand. Not enough to stop and see, Red Cross of to-day, like the Good Samaritan of old, has work to do where suffer- ng is concerned. The ass in the immortal tale of the way to Jericho has its counterpart to-day in the mo- tor ambulance «hat smoothly” and earefully takes the patient en route to his destination.

The inn of Scripture finds itself to-day represented by two beautifil houses of healing in Calgary and Ed- monton, known as the Junior Red Cross Hospitals.

Alberta's 1928 wheat crop is placed at 147,566,000 bushels, or an average of 22 bushels per acre from the acre- age sown in the provinee, in the crop estimate issued by the | Dominion Bureau of Statistics during the past week. This figure compares with 171,286,000 bushels ag shown in the final estimate of the 1927 crop. A COnsiderable reduction from the earlier estimates of the yield in the western provinces hag heen made as a result of the frost injury to the crop, Alberta’a average wheat yield compares very favorably with tha for the whole Dominion which is placed at 20.8 bushels to the acre.

Andy stopped as his gaze followed Donald’s. - Both sat spell-bound, and the others joined them quietly.

The panorama spread before them was singularly wild and impressive. Below them stretched a lake of em- erald hue, rippled here and there by occasional cat’s-paws, but for the most part, placid enough to reflect the shores with mirror-like clearness.

To their right lay an open valley,|’

through which ran a crystal clear

mountain stream, its banks fringed with Willow, alder and blooming lab- rador tea. _ A rustic bridge of logs

| crossed the rushing stream to a clus-

ter of well-built log cabins that were fenced in, by a palisade of cedar -posts.. Inside the enclosure a patch of freshly ploughed soil stood out rich and dark against the carpet of green.

Under the azure sky, dotted with fleecy clouds, a brilliantly’ white sky- line of ice-covered mountains, whose peaks flashed in’ the setting sun, cir- cled this beautiful mountain valley.

From below were wafted the odours of an awakening earth. The sweet perfume of the newly-opéned and sticky buds of the balm-of-gilead, the delicious aroma of the spruce and pine, the heavy, sweet smell of the water plants and the white orchis; all this fragrance was borne on the crisp, sparkling mountain air,” Invol- untarily the travellers filled their lungs with this life-giving ‘atmos- phere.

You are faithful in your mouth toilet, brushing your teeth at least daily, but you still find deposits form- ing back of your lower teeth, to which the tongue continually goes because of their roughness, and which you

will.

How, what ig this?

“Tartar,” so called, is salivary cal- culus, and as it’s name” implies, it enters the mouth through the saliva.

The fresh deposit is soft and can be washed or brushed away when first it settles. This brushing must be done, however, within from five to twelve hours of its appearance, since re- maining longer it begins to “set.”

The calculus increases in bulk

mulations until often large and thick masses of it are formed; these, press- ing upon the soft gum tissues, cause them to become inflamed, which in- flammation progressing, may lead to the ultimate loss of the teeth.

Now, three “words” more—

These deposits do not appear in | every mouth, nor where calculus does occur, is it found constantly.

“Tartar” is found generally on the “inside” of the lower incisors ana cuspids and on the “outside” of the upper first and second molar teeth, the reason for this being that these
