orneeded NEW MIlIEAGE _wln'cb will your Budqefproduce?

a W/hen communities standardize on concrete paving, their budgets are spent as everv taxpayer wants to see them spent . . . on NEW MILEAGE.

For concrete is permanent and reduces main- tenance almost to the (liSilPpCilfiIlg point. Crews lay new roads instead of patching old ones.

Concrete's advantages to the motorist are just as marked. Tests have proved that it re- duces fuel consumption, saves tires, retards car depreciation. Its even grit surface minimizes skidding hazarils in all weathers. Its light grey color gives bet- ter visibility at night. Therefore concrete paving means safer, easier, more economical driv- ing. Advocate it and wider high- ways at every opportunity.

WHAT DO YOU DISLIKE MOST‘!

Let us turn from the graver con- cerns of life to consider the research- es of Professor Cason, Rochester, N- Y» as related by him to the last International congress of Pey- 910108)’. It appears that for several Inquisitive years the Proiessor has GmDIOYed what we may hope were his leisure hours, in endeavoring to discover the pet aversions of man- kind, which of course embraces womankind also. By industry and patience he has accumulated 21.000 replies to the question at the head of this article, and has tabulated them in a sort of niunerical order, which is here put into percentages for the convenience of the reader. He also broadly divides the annoy- ances into hereditary and acquired, the former being common to all and therefore grading 100 per cent.

The hereditary aversions are com- paratively few; disoords in music, harsh grating sounds, certan odors, and the “screeching of pencils. The golden days, when every schoolboy carried his slate on a loop round his neck, and the careful mother put false sleeves on his coat to act as slate cloth or handkerchief as the occasion required, are long past, however, and the squeak of the slate pencil no longer sets the children's teeth on cdge.

The acquired averslons are more numerous and wider in range. At the head of the list stand those pre- cise people who dislike to sec an untidy bed, with 93 per cent. The same numb-er cannot "abide" the sigh-t of an intoxicated woman, but a man who gets corned, being a less perfect creature, to whom much is forgiven, is disliked by only 74 percent. It would appear that the discovery of dirt in 0110's food is slightly worse than the presence of a hair in the comestible, in the pro- portion of 84 to ‘l3. It ls.eviden‘t that to have somebody crowd m front of one, instead cl falling into queue, and to hear n woman swear, are equally annoying to the Profes- sor's public with the index set at 3'1. Herc we have another injustice to the-fair sex in these days of boast- ed equality: a man's profanity Ls only disagreeable to 56 llOFCJlll. ti the audience. It is a regrettable feature oflhc address that the Pro- fessor makes no attempt to scttl: what is swearing and what is mt.

TRIMMING THE SPRUCE HEDGE

As the snow leaves the ground one naturally wants to be up and doing, and attention is first given to tidy- ing and trimming up the surround- ings of the home. If you have ii spruce hedge, g0 slow. The native spruce—“white sprucc"—is in the greatest demand ’ior hedges, for it may be had for the digging, and is hardy and desirable. But the coni- fers, like spruce or cedar, will not break or form buds on the old wood as deciduous treés do, and this is well seen when a spruce is cut down; it never springs from the root-f It follows that the‘ pruning of on ever- green hedge must not be on the some lines as the pruning of hardwood.

The trimming of spruce should not be undertaken till new growth has commenced} say till it is about two inches long. At this stage new buds will form at the point where lhe cut is made, and the hedge will show s. green appearance: whereas if the trimming is undertaken too curly H, "dead" spot will show in the hedge and it will have o. demoralizeci appaarance all summer.

The above warning does not apply to the deciduous hedges. They are best shaped up in spring and new rcrdure will soon hide the place where the shears have been.

In trausplantng spruce for a hedge or n shclter-bclt it is best to select

‘small trees not above a._io0t high

The bolt or hedge may look small. but the less duo to the plants not “catching on" will also be small, and

_ cncc they take to the new situation,

growth is surprisingly lrapd. "I110 more exposed “the situation from whence you get your stock, the sur- cr you are of your "catch." Secondly do not dig the plants till the brown scales over the buds are ready to break: the little tree is waking to life then, and the roots are ready to take hold. Thirdly, cllg the plant

-sod and all: unlike the hardwoods,

if the roots of spruce get dry, just for one minute, the tree is done. Fourthly, dig the hole large enough to receive the sod, plant your tree and ﬁrm it well by tramplng round it. Attention to these iour rules

should give you 99 percent. of grow- lng trees. .

I recall an attempt to grow. a; shelter belt, where on account of the: impatience of those in charge, the space selected was l1 ;t ploughed.‘ and trees about four feet high- were planted. The ploughing broke up the_ eapillarlty of the soil, the water did, not come up to .thc roots of the trees] and being large they dried out; with‘ the result that ionly about half of, them were alive to begin the second] year. A few, at the end of the belt,, which had been spaded in, grew

HEART

To gauge the condition of the heart, there is a simpliftest which anyone can make. Medical men spree that it is unrivalled as a means o ﬁnding out if the heart is in health or doing its work under difficulties.

“Are you short of breath when going up stairs?"

The extent to which you are in- convenienced under this strain will tell you how serious may be the condition of your heart.

In most cams, the trouble is caused by a weakness of the blood and n run down condition of the ner- vous system. The logical prescription is Dr. Chase's Nerve Food because this treatment enriches the blood andutrengtbens the nerves of the heart, as well as thou of the other g vital organs. ;

This reconstructive treatment ins - proven eﬁective over such I long
