Andy coughed. “Er—yes, Connie.” Connie raised her eyebrows increu- uously. “All at one time?” “Sure—sure,” mumbled Andy, Connie stared. “Why, there must dozen pieces, How is this she questioned as she pointed with a slender brown finger to one of the engravings.

Dixon, chief engin- eer Western Region of the Canadian | National Railways, who has returned |to Montreal from a trip over the line as far as the ‘Barren Lands.’ “The construction of a telegraph line into Fort Churchill is proceed- ing rapidly," said Mr. Dixon, “and within a short time Fort Churchill will be in telegraphic connections with the rest of the world. Build- ing of the pole line ts proceeding ahead of the laying of steel.” The cold weather of the territory is being made to assist the con- tractors in the building of this track rather than hindering them. Under the plan of operation, ties and steel are’ laid directly on the muskeg, the only work don at by ® gang of men who are levelling off humps and surfacing with nat- ural muskeg for the track. A cut- ting which is to be made at one point will also be made during the winter months. As soon as the steel has been laid into Fort Church- ill a steamshoyel will be moved to that point where there is ample good ballast for the ballasting of the 50 odd miles of track which re- mained to be constructed at the beginning of this winter. This steamshovel will be placed in opera- tion and the track will be ballasted from the Fort Churchill end. Ap- proximately 500 men are employed in this work north of Mile 356 at the present time. According to the engineers’ re- ports and also the personal observ- ations made by Mr. Dixon during his visit to the point where work was being carried on, no great dif- ficulty has been experienced in lay- ing the track over the natural mus- keg with the exception of weather conditions. Progress on the work was held up for a few days in De- cember on account of bad storms on the ‘Barren Lands,’ but from the period just before Christmas up to the present the work has been pro- gressing according to expectations. “The contractors,” Mr. Dixon said, “are now building caches, hauling supplies, making tote road and so forth from the end of steel to Fort Churchill, The department of rail- ways and canals are operating trac- tors, which have sleigh runners in front and caterpillar drive wheels. From the end of the steel to Fort Churchill a very good road exists over this+section where the line is still to be built.” Illiteracy In Russia Education Falls Off During the Soviet Regime Whatever has progressed in Rus- sia under the Soviet regime, educa- tion has not.

Success In Turkey Raising Man From England Does Well With Turkeys in British Columbia Two years after Jesse Throssell went to British Columbia from Bed- fordshire, England, he was styled the “Turkey King of the Fraser Valley,” a fertile farming country near Vancouver. In the spring of 1927, a few months after his arrival on the farm he bought in the Fraser Valley, Mr. Throssell sent to Eng- land for two pure bred hen turkeys and one tom turkey, and with this nucleus he raised a flock of seventy birds that year. In the autumn of 1928 he had between 500 and 600 turkeys ready for the market. He exhibited at the Vancouver Winter | Little Helps For This Week eee a Congress Of Nurses Fair in 1928 winning the principal prizes in all the classes which he entered, including gold medal and Delegates Coming To Montreal Con- vention From Many Lands For the international Congress of Nurses, to be held in Montreal, in July, acceptances have been received from the following countries to date: Great Britain, United States, Aus- tralia, New Zealand, Hawaii, India, South Africa, Irish Free State.

He also won in the dressed turkey classes. Six dressed turkeys which weighed a total of 156 pounds were put up at auction and sold to the Lieutenant-Governor of British Co-! lumbia for $187.80. For the bes?) bird of the lot the Lieutenant-Gover- nor paid $45.00; it weighed twenty- seven pounds, Mr. Throssell re- cently shipped a number of turkeys to Australia for breeding purposes. His birds now command the highest prices. He estimates his 1929 flock will return him about ‘$5,000. Mr. Throsell’s success has been so encouraging that he has induced his brother to come out from England and settle on an adjoining ranch, and the two will work together to deyelop and extend the turkey rais- ing enterprise. .
