It is stated regarding Lady Henry Somerset that she bus recently struck a blow finenoially at the Liquor trade. She owns e good deal of property let on leases, and several of the leases are about to fall in. Sotne of these are of public, houses. Her ladyship leas auuonnced that she will renew no lease of a present public house unless the tenant will agree to change his business.. One `ti/ay Drily. In view of the terrible results of in- temperance, so eloquently portrayed by Uol Ingersoll, in an article re- printed in another column, the ques- tion—What leads to interpperancet— becomes irnportant; and there is but (tae answer --the attempt to 'drink medRrateIy. - What then is the only safe course' —assuredly total t,b.stinence from all that can intoxicate. Blore Drunks than Stook. It, is sad, but it is no less a fact, says the Georgetown Herald,' that there were more drunks than stock at the March Fair, last Friday. It is only two or three years ago that a certain prohibitory measure wes blamed for making our monthly fair of little im• ' portance; but the change to our present system seems to have wrought its ruination, entirely. The entire stook last Friday was one cow, 'and one pig. Wp hope our friends, the believers in oiir license law, will give these facts serious thought. A signs soardi, BY ELLA wIIP,BLUA.

A Woli•made sod. It is well known that many persons, partioulasv children, are restless after retirinfi. lit the morning, sheets and bed quilts are askew and the bed in anything but a comfortable condition. And then perhaps tl,e remark is heard: How I wish. the bed clothes were buttoned, or nailed down, or, fixed some way so neat they would stay where they belong. But the bed if made properly will always stay right. Turn the lower sheet well under at the bead of the bed. Turn under a foot at least. It does not snake any 'difference whether the sheet is tucked in at the bottom or not. The strain on it always comes frotn the head of ,the bed downward. Per contra the strain on clothes overa sleeper domes front they opposite direction. Hence they need to be well tucked in at the bottom, Tuck in all clothes hotel upper and under, Iter ng the sides ).)et the main. point i8 tont the ui.der clothes should be well turned in at top and the upper ones at the bottom. that is the secret of making them stay where they belong, no tatter how restless 'the occupants are. This is the theory and 1 have often proved it in practice. Sow to Rtop;a raper.

A good temper and quiet disposition are indispensible to all the animals kept for profit. Before buying therouhbrede or grades endeavor to see the sire or dans, and if possible the grandsire and grandam on both sides. Their perforinanee and records as dairy animals will eon - Arm a judgement as to the fitness or otherwise of thestock examined • for purchase. When animals are run down er out of condition this rule will enlighten the judgement. Require in the ancestore an easy milking nabitof at least three hundred days rather than a big record. Good appetites, vigor- ous digestions and responsive udders ;are of primary• importance and will usually decide the question of, profit. Beware of small eaters, weakly: built frames, and fleshy animals. Cows below a 1,000.Ibs weight give more profit• than thew above. This is true of all. breeds. profits are Measured by • the gross amount of, and quality of, the good produced less the cost of feed. The larger and bet- ter the produce in proportion to live weight,, the greater the profit. TO OUR SUBSCRIBERS.
