To ace Canada frhm the air today, one la dependent oh the Courtesy and hospitnlity of the serfices maintained by the Dominion and provincial govern men!- it nd by c<>rt»m<»n!al firms. The greatest percentage; of increase In population, shown by the cenAUs. was In the province of British Columbia where there are nearly one-t hi rd mure inhabitant?^than there were ten years ago. Quebec and Saskatchewan provinces Increusejd by more than onefifth. Ottawa. Montreal. Toronto,? Winnipeg. Vancouver and Hamilton are more than 100.000 population. Ottawa Is the Capital of the Dominion. Queen Victoria was well advised when she namedi Bytown, as It was then called, the seatriof government, after confederation in 1867. Few capitals have a finer natural location. The houses of parliament and surrounding government offices are built on a high bluff on the south bank of the Ottawa river. Just below the Chaudiere falls. To the north, forested spurs of the Laurentian mountains extend almost to the river bank, while on the tario ride of the river the city is surrounded by a fine farming country. Since the days of Champlain, the Ottawa river has been the main highway from the sea to the West. Permanent settlement in tye district, however, only began in the first decade of the Nineteenth century. After the War of 1812 the British government, looking for a strategic route from the sea to the Great Lake*, which would avoid the international waterway of the St Lawrence, decided on the construction of the Rldean canal, which would give an alternative waterway from Montreal to Kingston, on Lake Ontario. Rivers and Canal at Ottawa. The canal was built by the Royil engineers in the third decade of the last century and is still in use. a monument to their hkill and workmanship. With the opening of the canal the little settlement grew in importance, tod " ' •it' J ;
was called By town after Colonel By. < commanding Royal engineers. It soon became the headquarters of the thriving Ottawa valley lumber industry - ! Beautiful driveways and natural parks line the t>;.nks of Ottawa's rivers and canal; and. though it Is essen- , flaily a city of homes, many industries i congregate there attracted by' the cheap water power developed by Chaudiere falls. The original parliament buildings were burned in 1916. A magnificent Gothic structure has risen oft the old site, crowned by a central Spire, Victory tower. 355 feet high, built to commemorate Canada’s part |n the World war. M ■ntn al, the largest of the Canadian citi- s was <!<•- ■ .-ite St. Lawrence river bank three, hundred .years ugd. It was first visited by Jacques Cartier; the first settlement on the site rose in 1042. Few cities'have greater natural ' advantages.—At the head of oCtun navigation, yet almost I.(iw miles from the Atlantic, it is a natural gateway for the commerce of the continent. Her merchants have not been slow to take advantage of the situation. Un--limited water power drives her industries' w!o-els; wl Te an intelligent and thrifty p-ople provide efficient for her factories. , J f'anada is one of the great commeo rial nations, ah i Montreal, the, principal port for this trade, is the world’s greatest wheat « export center. The city is bilingual, four-fifths of the populatlcpr speaking F rench. It Is of Interest historically, politically and -see clally, an<F.the seat of two noble institutions of learning—the University of Moutrimd and MeGIU university. : d” Next to Montreal, ranks Toronto, capital 'city of the Province of Ontario. the most thickly vince Os the Domiuloni Nearly onethlrd of the Deminon’s inhabitants live within <interim's borders. Toronto is a worthy capital of a great province, a financial and industrial center, and the seat of the largest university in Canada. r For the-n«t largest city, one must Jump half way across the Dominion to Wiunipeg. the distrilunlng center of w< 't.< ni Canada and. as it were, the ne-k of the bottle, where the railway iiu.es Although more than a <*T.turv old. Its rapid growth has taken place during the past two generations. Now it is a city of fine streets, well-tiniherevl parks, and besiutifui driveways along the Assiniboine and Red rivers. .

Winnipeg's future is assured. Spine 900 miles west is Calgary, Although boasting of about 63,t«o inhabitants, it Is the principal city of southern; Alberta province and the center of a vast farming and ranching d -trict. It; also has maoy Industries and ia in the fortunate position of having an unlitjnlted supply of natural gas to provide cheap power, light and heat. Banff, nearby, is a popular summer playground set in one of the worid's mountain beauty spots. Two Big Cities in the West. Vancouver with 120,000 Inhabitants and Victoria are tn the spot ligh t ambng the leading cities of the Pacific coast- Victoria, clinging to the southern .end of Vancouver island. Is the first city of the province of British Columbia. It was first settled in 1842 by the governor of the Hudson's Bay company. It is perhaps the most English town outside of England. Its situation is delightful and the absence of the rush and hustle of other western cities, its beautiful gardens, fine buildings, drives, and splendid climate, all lend it an attraction for those who wish to lead a quiet, out-of-door life and escape the rigors of the sterner climate of other provinces. Esquimau. the naval base, situated in a nearby bay. Is of importance strategically and the' headquarters of the Royal Canadian Navy and Imperial fleet on the I‘acinc coast. ▼*- j Vancouver contrasts sharply with Victoria. It Is the metropolis of the Canadian Pacific coast, a thriving city, still in the making, each year increasing Ils importance. A generation ago tall pines grew where It stands; in 1923 Us shipping trade was second only to that of Montreal. With the wealth of mines, timber, fisheries, and agriculture not only of British Columbia, but of the western prairies behind it, it cannot be otherwise' than one of the great trading ports of the world. It is the terminus of two major railway systems of Canada. Just under the 100.000 population mark is Quebec which no narrative of the Dominion fails to mention. No city of the world has a more romantic history than the old French capital, nestling below the cliffs of the Citadel, and the Plains of Abraham, where was finally decided in 1759. the great struggle between France and England for supremacy in the western bend sphere.
'FARM* POULTRY GREEN FOODS FOR HENS IN WINTER Alfalfa Considered Best by Most Breeders. Swiss chard makes a good green feed until freezing weather occurs and then the remaining leaves can be cut off and given to the hens until the supply becomes badly wilted, says the Indiana Farmer’s Guide. ~ Swiss chard should be planted In deep rich garden soil for best results. As soon as the leaves are cut, more will sprout from the roots. A long mw in a. farm garden will supply a , lot of *reen feed for the average farm flock during the late summer and fall when the grass on the range becomes dry and tough. Bushels of the succulent green leaves can be gathered from a very small space. However, alfalfa is now considered -about the best winter green feed for I hens anrt if you can obtain a f»*' loads «f second cutting alfalfa which Is rich In green leaves, you will find it more desirable for the poultry than swiss chard or cabtmge Cabbages are easy to store and will furnish succulent; feed for a long time and mangel beets! are good succulent feed but 'hen it comes to serving bens with real aplietizrng green feed, there is probably nothing better than the alfalfa leaves. It pays to keep a rack of alfalfa In each section of a laying house. It gives the hens something to peck at which will furnish bulk and vitamins and the steins can be added to the scratching litter. Flock’s Value Depends on Good Feed and Care In these days of low profits, poultrymen may take heart from earnings i piade by flock owners co-operating with the agricultural extension division of the University, of Minnesota, in kt-ephig flock records. During the nine months froqi' November. 1930, to August. 1931. only two out of seventyseveni flocks failed to return a profit above feed and miscellaneous costs. No tlock failed to pay for its feed and leave at least a small balance. 3he latest records, covering fiftythree flocks for August, show sash receipts of over 33,500 in return for a charge of about $1,400 for feeds and miscellaneous expense. Miss Cora Cooke, specialist in charge of the record project, points out such returns are dependent upon good feed and care, but assures flock owners that such care has paid during the past year and may be expected to continue paying. Treat for Lice Poultry losses from lice may be reduced and= egg production increased by treating the perches with a 40 per cent solution of nicotine sulfate Just before the chickens go to roost, says the Ohio State university. The material may be painted on the, roosts with a small paint brush. It is best to rcj>eat the treatment in about ten ,da\s. Sodium fluoride may Be used in-, stead of the sulfate solution. During warm weather many poultry men prefer-to use this as a dip. The ilip is made by adding three-fourths of an funee of the chemically pure product, or one ounce of the commercial sodium fluoride to each gallon of water. —Nebraska Farmer, Poultry Facts Nutritional roup In poultry is caused by a lack of vitamin A. It can be cured when not too far a'dranced by giving the chickens an ample supply of green feed. Birds of a feather will flock together. Scrub cows, scrub hogs, scrub horses, scrub chickens and scrub farmers are all In congenial company.— Southern Agriculturist. • • • Eggs from a 6.000-hen poultry farm in Brandenberg are taken by auto trucks at regular hours to Berlin. Germany, where they are sold in the« streets. • • • Whether you ship two cases or forty cases of eggs each week you can profit by the reputation of youl pack. . Hatching eggs from fowls rfe not as fertile in the fall as in the spring. Duck eggs are said to be infertile while the drake is molting. •• • < More than $24,000,000 were earned by chickens in Wisconsin flocks in 1930 in addition to poultry being the largest single source of food products for the state’s farm families. An increasing Industry of Connecticut is the raising of poultry, says the Connecticut department of agriculture. Poultry men are keeping more than 2.000.000 chickens which produce approximately 20,960.000 dozens of eggs each year. • • • Leg weakness takes Its greatest toll from young chicks confined in battery brooders and tn brooder houses. Chick rations high in bonemeal or phosphorus appear to aggravate this condition. • • • Laying hens need more grain during cold weather because of the extra energy required, to them warm. It’s a waste of feed to give non-layers the same amount as heavy producers. • • • A well conducted poultry show Is not only of educational benefit to all interested in poultry culture or marketing. but it is a place where sportsmanship is tested and poultry producers generally can be greatly benefited by comparing experiences.

OLD DUTCH BIBLE FOUND IN DELFT Discovered by Chance in Church Archives. Just by chance Is said to be the first Dutch printed has been found in the archives of the Delft branch of the Dutch Bible society. It was published at Delft In 1477 by Jacob Jacobssoen and Mauricius Yemantssoen. who came from Middelburg. The volume will be shown at a.» Bible exhibition to' be held at Delft soon. The printer, according to the history of the was decapitated for his daring enterprise in producing the book. The Dutch Bible society has many valuable Bibles in its collection and the Holy Scriptures are regarded here as a sort of providential charter from the days o£ the great struggle for freedom tn the 80 years' wjar. The so-called Statenbijbel of x the Seventeenth century Is .ooked upon as one of the foundations of the Dutch language. The society Is Inst having It translated In a form Intelligible to the present generation. ‘ The society Itself is more than an Institution for the spread of religion. It was founded in 1814. some ten years after the organization of the/ English Flble society, in commemora-' 1 tion nf Holland’s Mberatiop from the French in 1813. The Dutch people max tie getting less churchly hut thev are not less religious, and the Dutch Bible society, which has 200 branches In Holland alone and numerous representatives tn the overseas part of the kingdom, is still truly a national institution. It does much international work. too. distributing thousands of Bibles, printed In all sizes 0 at prices ranging from 4 cents to $8 and published in 14 European nnd some 30 Indian languages, for the use of scholars who are sent by the society to live among the natives and study their tongues. There are some 44» native peoples under! the rule of Queen Wilhelmina. The society’s methods are very similar to those of the American Bible society.. It often sells books at a loss or gives them away to hospitals, hotels, ships, seamen’s houses and charitable institutions. ? It spreads leaflets in which attenctlon is called to special texts for special cases. It has caused the scriptures to be printed In Braille for - the blind and in four millimeter type for the short-sighted. z “I was very mu<-h Impressed by the candor with which the American society’s propagandists are holding their meetings amid the hurrying crowds of New York in such central places as Wall street, laying; their Bibles at the heels of Mammon himself,” said J.

Dutch society's representative here. “But the Dutch society also is reaching all social classes, its work, however, is strictly confined to making Book of Books better known; it does not occupy itself with exegesis and there is no controversial matter In the task of- Its board, in which various denominations are represented.

A Rembrandt Embellished Glasgow, Scotland, nas a sensation in the report, that tlie famous pic-, ture, "The Man in Armour.” by Rembrandt, was found to possess the embellishment ol a second-artist, who is believed by an expert to have made certain additions to the picture probably 100 years ago. At present the painting is in Holland being “codoctored” for certain cracks, which had appeared in the canvas, and the expert there has reported to the Art GaHpries committee of Glasgow corporation that around the figure are traces of the work of a second art--Ist. The value of ‘"The Man In Armour” is estimated at over $500,000. It was once in the possession of Sir -JLoshua Reynolds. H : f Rapid Printing of Braille Reading matter for the blind has not been generally available for the reason that under the older system of Braille printing it was necessary to make every dot by hand, so that reading matter, for the blind Avas not only scarce, but often prohibitory in price. A great advance in this matter is in a recently invented rotary press for the printing of Braille type which has been installed at the National Institute for the Blind in London. Sixteen thousand pages of Braille reading material are being turned out-in an hour, a speed five times greater than has ever before been possible. ! *v Named After Famous Spa Magnesium sulphate came into use during the Seventeenth century consequence of the Epsom spa in England, which becarije famous as a watering place and health resort about 1640. wrote Charles H. La Wall in “Four Thousand Tears of Pharmacy.” Later in tlie same/ century Dr. Friedrich Hoffman found..the waters of the Seidliu spring in Germany to contain magnesium sulphate and so the terms'Epsom salt and Seidlitz salt were used to designate this same substance ibng before its composition had been established.
