TUESDAY JULY 10. l9C0.

In California steam planting and har-

vesting machines have been developed of extraordinary size and power. TheScien- title American gives cuts of these mach- ines. In one illustration we are shown a

50 horse power traction engine, with

driving wheels 60 inches in diameter, drawing over the fields sixteen 10-inch plows, four 6 foot harrows and a seed drill behind this,atone operation plowing, harrowing and seeding from 45 to 75 acresa day. In harvest time by an equally powerful steam harvester, whose cutters are 26 feet wide, the wheat is “hear-led,” thrashed, cleaned and: sacked, the machine in one day gathering the crop of '75 acres. The scarcity of labor

makes it profitable to employ steam power in this way.

The loss of life in the United States last

year by lightning was 562, with 320 Others

injured, a. total of 1,382 casualties in a. pop- ulation of about 78 million. Thus one per- n

son in 56,500 was struck by lightning, and one in 138,800 was killed. It is said that these figures represent the highest num-

ber injuredby lightning in any one year. Of those killed 45 per cent were in the open air, 31 per cent in houses, 11 per cent under trees and 9 per cent in barns.Fuliy a dozen persons were killed while in the act of stripping clothes from wire clothes p lines. W

Miss Darchy, journalist and lecturer _

from Sydney, New South Wales, is now I in Montreal. She is not enthusiastic over `

woman suffrage, which has been tried in » New Zealand and West Australia but not i in New South Wales. She says:

“From what I can see the women are

quite indifferent. VVhen a woman wants A a thing she will get it; but they do not ex- press any desire for the ballot. I do not think, therefore, that it really makes much difference whether they have it or not.”

The Khedive of Egypt is meeting with.

a very cordial reception in England and appears to be enjoying himself to the full. In the earlier years of his reign he was less friendly, but appears now to have reached the sound conclusion that Great Britain is his best friend. When he came

to the throne he was but 18 years of age and he is now 26. He receives $500,000a

year for the support of the Khedival dig- nity.

In New South Wales they impose a tax

of $500 on each Chinese coming to the country and the Colony is not troubled with the Orientals. ,

Even the lmpassive Kitchener Worried into

Providing For Red Cress|Stores. I

In a letter to Dr. Hodgetts, Hon. Sec-

retary of the Red Cross, Dr. Ryerson tells how he got supplies for Red Cross work at Bioemfontein. He saysz-

“We have had a large accession to our

stores owing to the happy idea which oc- cured to me as to transport. I noticed that the ambulance trains came north quite empty. so that when, at the request of Sir John Furley, I went to the chief of staff, Lord Kitchener, I proposed that the trains should bring up our supplies. He immediately acceded to the request and issued orders to give effect to it, saying laughinglv ~he hoped he would see no more of me,for I had haunted headquar- ters with demands for transport. The effect is to give us an ample supply of everything needed.

“Regarding the eggs, no more impor-

tant contribution could be made for the welfare of the enterics. The eggs are dear, but most important, and are prac- tically unobtainable here in any quantity. I feel disposed to contribute another £100 for this purpose. I make it a condition that every Canadian whois permitted it bydiis doctor shall have an egg daily. I am sorry to report that there are 4,000 sick and wounded now here. That is be- cause this is the base, and all sick and wounded are sent here until able to be sent to Wynberg. The demands upon us are large, and Ishall not hesitate to call upon you for further contributions when Ithiud it necessary."

In a later letter he says:-I have given

another £100 to the Chief Commissioner for the purchase of further supplies of eggs. The hundred blanket-rugs for the ofiiciers of the different contigents have now all been distributed, each corps get- tingits proportion except CBattery, which is at the base and is not in want of them. The reports I have received regarding the blankets are most satisfactory. .They cost £60 12s.” _
