Agriculture being the basic industry of the province of Saskatchewan, it is only natural that the Department of Agriculture should make wide use of moving pictures in instruction work. They are used in all short course work carried on by agricultural representa- tives in the province and also by the Extension Department of the Univerv sity of Saskatchewan in connection Ewith the agricultural courses conduct- ed during the winter at various points in the province. The films exhibited deal with practically all phases of ag- riculture. Among them are pictures il- lustrating the co-operative marketing of live stock, showing the progress of the good points of horses, bull‘s, inllch cows, give the observant an education in what to look for when selecting these animals. Farm boys get a lot of useful information from films of this character, and put it to good use at the farm boys’ camps when the live the animals from the farm to the stockyards. the care of poultry and the candling of eggs, the construction of trench silos, cream grading, the em- bryology of an egg. Films showing stock judging competitions are in pro- gress. A combination of the practical and aesthetic is found in the film showing the proper method of tree |planting, with the object of demon- strating how farm surroundings can be made more attractive.

Ema Brew BABY’S EEALTH IN THE SPRINQ The Spring is a time of anxiety to mothers who have little ones in the home. Conditions make it necessary to keep the baby indoors. He is often confined to overheated, badly venti- lated rooms and catches colds which rack his whole system. To guard against this a box of Baby’s Own Tab- lets should be kept in the house and an occasional dose given the baby .to keep his stomach and bowels working regularly. This will prevent colds, constipation or colic and keep baby well. The Tablets are sold by mediâ€" cine dealers or by mail at 25 Cents a. box from The Dr. VVilliams' Medicine 00., Brockville, Ont.

In 1883 Daimler made the first small,-l1igh-speed petrol engine, for all‘ those which had gone before had been huge, clumsy, and slow-mov- ing machines. Two years later he in- stalled his‘engine in a motor-bicycle and at the same timefitted boats with motors and ran them at Paris during an exhibition there. The boats attracted the attention 9i Levassor, another famous pioneer, who at once saw the immense possibilities in Daimler’s invention. He bought the French patents from the invennor.
