LAXERINE GAS SAVERS (Reg.), 372 Bay St., Toronto Celtic Element Manifest in Ballads of Newfoundland The Dominion Coast-To-Coast New Collection Contains MucU Genuine Folk Music of Good Quality Elizabeth Greeuleaf and Grace Manstleld have just published "Bal- lads and Sea-Songs of Newfoundland," The LondOQ Times says: "In the most recent publication of tongs from Newfoundland too many •ongs are given without their tune, but tiie tunes when they are given •eem to have been accurately noted, even in cases where the underlaying of the words is contrary to their na- tural accentuation. Irregularities of lime and mode have been preserved ind the words are tor the mo?t part complete. Mrs. Greenleaf explains in In excellent introduction describing her visits to Newfoundland how she came to take up folk-song collection without any special training or experi- ence, but she had the help of a com- >etent musician in Mrs. Mansfield and Ihe notes, which give very full refer- ences, have greatly benefitted from the editorial assistance of Professor Kittredge. Nevertheless, many of the Bougs have no place in a collection of folk-songs on even a loose interpreta- tion of that ela.stic designation. At the «ame time, folk or not folk, their in- clusion throws a flood of light on the practice of folk-singing and on the way that an oral tradition works in a so- ciety that has not yet wholly abandon- ed it in favor of print. • "There is a large Celtic element in the population of Newfoundland â€" Irish, Welsh and some Scotch, who are said still to preserve their Gaelic, though the present collection of 1S5 longs, which represents geographically only a small area of the island, in- cludes none of them nor of any songs of the French-speaking people. The Celtic way with folk-song is different from the English, which is more con- servative and keeps words and tune indissolubly associated, as Cecil Sharp always found. Among the Celts the bardic :radition is still potent. A gifted singer will make up a poem about current events and either sing It to a tune belonging to another song that happens to fit, or will make up a tune from typical lilts and i>hrases that are common to the whole body of his national folk-song, thus producing a tune which is new, but tot original, original, bu;; not aew â€" the beginning of the process of communal growth, iu fact, but not yet a true folk-song. A collector in Nova Scotia last sum- mer found there a song composed on the subject of the evacuation of the Island of St. Kilda which was sung to her in Ciaelic. "The tunes are mostly good honest Btuff, but not of any surpassing beau- ty, except iu a few instances, such as the strong 'The Plains of Water- loo' and 'Bold Wolfe,' a good song whose words seem to be the product of grafting the historical exploits of General Wolfe on to a stock ballad. The 'snap' characteristic of Scottish and the cadence of three repeated notes characteristic of Irish folk- songs are found, as well as several Irish reels. Taken iu all, the collec- tion is a very mixed bag, containing much genuine folk-music of good qual- a good deal of popular music of fair really bad iiuality, old and new in Charlottetown. Prince Kdward Is- land. â€" Ten pairs of Hungarian part- ridges were set free in Prince Edward Island in October, 1917. and forty-nine i more pairs iu 1931. Now thousands of | these birds are to be seen in the Is- 1 land woods, which have become their natural habitation. The experiment is looked upon as being a complete sue- 1 cess. I Saint John.

Quebec. Quebec. â€" A report by Mr. A. 0. Dafresne, Director of the Quebec Bureau of Mines, shows a rise in As- bestos and copper production during the second (juarter of 1933.

Read this letter she has written: â€" "I am a woman of 50, have a family of 13 children, and have not a wrinkle on my face. Some time ago I passed through a very severe illness, and re- solved to try Kruschen Salts, and am a new woman since taking them I have taken Kruschen for twelve months â€" not a small dose, but halt-a- teaspoouful every morning in a cup of hot water. I think Kruschen gives you a feeling of buoyancy and youth that nothin.g else does." â€" (Mrs.) E. T. Many minor illnesses, depression and worryâ€" #ihich are the chief causes of wrinkles â€" are freiiueiitly due to the presence in the system of ni>isoiis bred by the waste products of digestion. These poisons are the root cause of rheumatism, headaches, kdney trouble and other complainis. which make peo- ple old before their time. It is the uii- laiting effect of Kruschen Salts to ex- pel these poisons and keep the blood- stream pure. -Vnd i> ri» h supply of pure, vigoron.'j lilo-d ^-^ Ihe spviot of vouihtul -italiiy - mil . .i* of lucn and wonieii liuve already proved that. of 1932.

Dr. Harrington believes that the . expermontal results this year, while ' crops are small, will provide valuable' information on such questions as the comparative strength of straw and the smattering of grain varieties.

Brampton Cow Sets New Record 19,012.3 Pounds of Milk and 1,312.7 of Butter Fat in Year is New Mark "Brampton Basilua," Jersey cow- owned by B. H. Bull & Son, Brampton, established a world's record for this breed of cow on Sept. 25th. when she completed the phenomenal production of 19.012.3 pounds of milk and 1.312.7 pounds of butter fat iu 365 days. This great cow.- according to ad- vices, weighs only 950 pounds, yet she outproduced all other cows of all breeds the world over on three times a day milking. Only two records have been established that are higher for butter fat, it is claimed, and these were made on four times a day milk- ing. The new champion was fed and milked by George Wood, who has handled more high record Jerseys than any other man in Canada. She is the highest testing cow in the w-orld ever t» make a world's record. She is the smallest cow ever to go over 1,260 pounds -of tat in one year. She pro- duced more butter fat in one month (,136 lbs.) than any other Jersey cow ever produced iu that time. "Basilua" was imported from Jersey Island as a yearling by Bull & Son. and made an excellent record of more than 600 pounds of fat at two years. She went on her record-breaking pace as a 5-year-old. Her sire w-as imported by Brampton and sold in Tennessee, where he is still in service. His sire was also imported by Brampton, as were most of the outstanding animals in the pedigree of Basilua.
