Tt is computed that one person in
every thirteen of our population car-
ries a life insurance policy, which in-
dicates that the heads of families who
are without insurance of some kind
are very few in number. It is Well
within the merk to say that itt no
other country of six million people is
there so large an amount of insurance
carried as in the Dominion of Canada,
If the returns of the Province of
Ontario were separated from the total
it would plobably be found that this
province carries more insurance per
head of population than any state,
province or country in the world.
It is e most gratifying thing to all
who take an interest in the well-beiog
of the Dominion to learn that the help-
less ones are to such a large e: tout
protected, and to see that those who
are responsible for the care and main-
tenance of the non-productive portion
of the community are willing to make
sacrifices to preserve dependent ones
from want, in case of their death.
These figures also indicate a measure
of prosperity in the Dominion that it
would be difficult to parallel in any
part of the world. The whole picture
hich includes a sense of responsi-
bility, a desire to meet it, and the
ability to fulfil it -is one that sociel
economists should be pleand to look
upon.

Of Agricultural Implements in Luck-
' nOW.
The largest delivery of agricultural
implements ever held in Western
Ontario, took plree in Lucknow on
Wednesday last, under the auspices of
Mr. William Allin, the local agert
here of the Alaisey Harris Company,
of Toronto Neariy the whole fore-
noon was tilken up in loading the
machines on the farmers sleighs at the
station, and this having been success-
fully accoinplished, the farmers,
representatives of the company and
several of our leading citizens were
invited to dinner at the Cain, the Mc-
Garry and McDa‘itt Houses, where
everything necessary to supply all the
wants of the inner man were abuni-
atitly provided. About two o'clock
the owners of the rigs hitched up,
found into procession, and headed
ey the splendid hrass baud of the
Lucknow musical society, drove
around a couple of blocks and then
back on to the main street again at
the town hall. Nothing has ever
been seen in this part of the province
to equal it, and as the one hundred
or more double sleighs, all heavily
ledea with machines passed down
Camabell street it presented an im-
posing sight, and one that could not
fail to impress the onlookers with
abundant proof of the prosperity of the
farming community in tlai section at
the present day. It would be difficult
to say just how much money was paid
out by the puruhasers for theses
machines, but we don't think it would
be too much to say that fully eight
thousand dollars worth of implements
were represented in the delivery, for
the thirty-sevel binders alone cost
nearly 85,000. On reaching the
corner of Campbell and Inglis streets,
the teams lined up along the street,
and a photograph was taken by Mr. T.
L. Treleaven. Among the representa-
tives of the Massey Harris Company
present were General Manager Thoe.
Johnston and Mr. A. Southeran, of
Toronto. Mr. Allin is one of the
most extensive dealers in agricultural
itnpleruents in Ontario and the great
success of bus big delivery on Wed-
nesday was not only gratifying to him-
self and his able st3ff of agents, but it
also afforded our citizens a uplendid
opportunity of judging of the enor-
mous amount of business that is done
by one of oar most enterprising and
energetic business men.
Among tin M usicia ns
A difficult programme of ensemble
work was rendered Wednesday even-
ing at studio, 16 Exchange Palace
building,before a large andienthusiastic
audience that had assembled to listen
to the pupils of Ida May Miller.
They were assisted by Mrs. Daisy
Otis Bennet, vocalist, Agnes Wilson,
elocutionist, and 'Messrs. Feasler ard
Moore, banjoists. The whole pro-
gramme was carried out with credit
to the performers, and painstaking
training by their teacher. Special
mention should be made of a trio by
four little ones, Misses Ethel Auder
son, Florence Yorkey, Nellie Prighe
and Fred Horstman. They executed
their number.; beautifully and in ex-
cellent time for being so young. A
pleasant feature of the evening was
the banjo music of Messrs.- Feaster
and 5.1 oore. Miss Agnes W ilson
captivated the audience in her usual
good style, being recalled repeatedly.
Mrs. Daisy Otis Bennett, sang "A
Stranger's Story" with Gerald Lane's
"Tatters" for an encore which de-
lighted the heareri. The other per-
formers were Miss Tillie Norden and
Gertie Cobaui who played. in perfect
union "Hursarenitt." received their
share of appri.cietion. Cora Park and
Lillian Baker played "Rae De

The Beat Seeds Absolutely Necessary
We cannot t strcagly nor too
often urge the supremo importance of
planting seeds thet are perfectly pure
amid fresh. Seeds that, are offered at
cheap prices are almost invarially of
dcubly origin and uncertain age, sure
to cause the planter disappointment
and love The thoughtful planter'a
only surety lies in buying seeds sent
out by a conscientious and trustworthy
house. A vast number of gardeners
have (and have had for years) the
utmost confidence in seeds that bear
the name D. M. Ferry & Co., Wind-
sor, Ont. The present generation of
planters, can hardly remember the
time when Ferry's Seeds were not on
sale everywhere each year and as
regularly planted by thousands, -with
the greatest faith in the unvarying
quality of the seeds and in the in-
tegrity of the firm that grew tiheris.
Every planter, whether already a
buyer of Perry's Seeds or not, should
send for Ferry's Seed Annual for
1899. It is meiled free to any one
who writes for it.

FEEDING STOCK

A few words on shelter and cattle
feeding. As a ruf8 feeding begins id
November and coucinues till May,
therefore, seeing it requires six
months time we should consider which
is the best slid must profitable mode
of performing this work.
In the first place repair the stables i
making them warm and cornfo,tae, I
get the floor even and close, Et in
btalls, mangers, feedboAes, ties, etc.,
doors to swing freely and windows
for light and ventilation.
Some prefer the following plan :To
inclose the sheds, ha‘e the feed over
head and place raceize at Ile sides
where the feed is threw n dee a.
Dehorn the cettle and bunch them
together like so maey sheep, where
they shell feed and 104 qu;.tly with-

We begin the feeding eeason as
folloes : Feed strew and cut turnips
in the more.ng. In the middle of the
day turn them out fur 3 or 4 .Luu,s,
the sreather being fe;r, to v-eier, uorn
strew and the screw ',wok. Allow
free access to salt, ue feed it in stable
once or twice a wee.

grain in feed tesses f0 eech; to this
they rash in speedily, tie up and let
go till six o'clok, when they are fed
