The time has come when Ontario farmers, to be suceessful in their cal- ling, must give more special promin- ence to mixed and dairy farming. Ow- ing to the increased outlay necessary to wheat raieing, and the facilities af- forded in Manitoba and the North-West territories for raising immense crops of grain at half the cost in Outaria, wheat and other grams have ceased to be profitable crops for our farmers. This state of things can be remedied to a, great extent by mixed farming, and particularly by giving more attention to dairy produce. It is gratifying to know that some measure of progress has already been made in this direction owing" to the encouragement 'given by the federal government through our experie.en tal and model farms—and to the diffusion of social Ismael views on the management of creameries and cheeee factories. There are now in operation in this Province alone sixty two regular creameries besides' ttvelye winter creameries, and as was brought out at the last annual convention of the Ontario creameries' Assoeiati that whenever dairying and etock ra Ing have been gone into the farm so engaged are progressing and good circumstances. Their success the World's Fair, although not neat whet it might have been, had the sa attention been given to butter as cheese, was nevertheless very encou aging. For various reasons a go deal of our butter exhibit at Chica failed to take a high standard—b this could easily be remedied in futur As it was, however, Ontario won twe ty-sevqt awards for butter alone. H proper attention been raid to fia.vorin and to haying a plentiful supply of e silage or other green crop, as well to the general care of stock by Navin clean airy stables and a good sup of fresh.water,—it is said that two m lions more of money might have pass through our farmers' hands durin last year. It is a well known fact th much of the butter bought and sold country stores is of inferior quant owing to improper or careless manag ment; and if our farmers expect compete in the British market, !whi is their chief dependence, they must I prepared to give more attention to a. the details of butter•making--such Improved stcek, proper fodder, sealdin of the milk pans, gocd salt-flayorin careful packing in fikins, &c. A brought out by the President of th Creameries' Association in his annua address the other day, "our exports o butter and cheese could be swolle from 13 tc 20 millions of dollars 1 1894."

Thy aro not a Cathartle- Farmers' Institute. .. — The farmers met in the Town Hall here on Satur4y 13 inst. afternoon, and in Drew s hall in the evening. A targe number of interested farmers were assembled, particularly in the af- ternoon. Sothis farmers say that there is nothingfoi: them to learn by attend- ing such • mesettngs, but they • never made a grecidgeniietake. The farmer that know it all'inuat have attended a good school indeed. Kr. Patton took up the subject of dairying. He dwelt on the subject along the usual lines i..e. Secure cows that will give a large quantity of milk with a high percentage of butter fat. He showed that many farmers kept cows at a positive loss either because they had not the right kiud of animals or because they had not the right kind of food. Usually the food cost too much, He emphasised the importauce of so curing the cheapest and at the same time a nutritious food. He taid of all the cheap food he knew of none so cheap and nutritious as ensilege. It is a most remarkable thing that hund reds of farmers. Yes! thousand will per• sist in having large runs of pasture burnt brown with the summer sun, having their cows working from morn big till night in trying to pick up a little grass put of which to manufac- ture a small quantity and a poor qual ity of butter, while they might sow a tenth part of the pasture in corn and have abundance of food. Mr. Patton was asked by some present, what breed of cattle did lie consider the best for dairy purposes." He stated that they were not confined to any one class, that if you could get milkers with a high percentage of butter fat from the short horns, why stick to them. Mr. Pat • ton showed himself to be thoroughly conversant with his subject. Mr. Beadle, of St, Catherines, next tpok the best methods of growing ap- ples, plums, peaches, &c. He com menced by stating that as the. apple was one of the articles of . export. He would discuss it. He asked those pres- ant to propose questions to him and by that means he would be able to talk of that which was of the most interest to them. Among many questions these were asked When ie the best time to plant out fruit trees? • Ans. Spring. The next question taken up was asked by Mr. John Dew. What is the best means of preventing the codling- moth frem her ravages? Mr.Beadle said the best known rem- edy was spraying with Parts Green in the proportion of one pound of Paris G-reen to every 200 gallons of water. The first spraying to begin just as .the last leaves of the blossoms fall„ then twice more of about a week or ten days apart. He showed the foolishness of spraying. the trees while in bloom, not simply by destroying the bees, but by keeping the pollen of the blossom wet, you diminished if not altogether destroyed the' fructifying powers of the plant, spraying was recommended in the tame manner for the cureulio in the plum. Mr' Beadle was listened throughout with great interest, Mr. Zavite of the Agricultural Farm Guelph. next introduced his subject of experiments.on the farm and handled it in a very able manner. The concert in Drew's hall in the evening was quite largely attended. F1se .8arth Trembled. Vancouver, Jan 14.—Theearth trem- bled in British eaten] bia to day.

FORGERY IN CnisonoN.—There are people in all parts of the world who enjoy fun, and strange to say they enjoy fun at somebody else's expense. There are 'sane such persons in Credi- ton. A call was made last Sunday for contrtbutions to the Missionary Fund of the Methodist church, and for this purpose envelopes were distributed in the pews of the church, Now, Mr. Fun - maker 'took it into his head to write the name of our most respected citizen, Mr. James Hill, for the sum of $200. thinking, of iours', to have a little fun when the names were read out in the church, but Mr. Hill, by some means or other, came into. possession of the docu- ment, and has it now, as a•proof posi- tive of thiaforgery, Had it not been for the intervention , of a peaceeloving Mend, Mr. Hill would, no doubt, have taken legal aceion. All who know Mr. Hill know that he is among the fore- most in contributing to all church aed enterprises, whether for the English or German, a nel it is too bad that he should be the target for Mr. Fun -maker.

A. H. WATSON, Ceisnmonn,• Ont., Jan. 13th.—The good people of this thriving village now freely and heartily discuss a sub ject that has interested thousands in other parts of the Dominion. • The popular subjeet in the quiet and well ordered homes of this place has nothing to do with politics, religion or foreign matters; even local subjects pertaining to improvements are lost sight.of, while the more weighty one— that of relieving pain, curing disease and bringing back lost health, by the use of Paine's celery compound, is spoken of by young and old. • The record of wonderful cures effect ed in large centres of population, has reached this town, situated on the Mad River and has developed an interest, especially amongst the sick and their friends, that cannot easily die out or fade from memory. Residents here have heard how their relatives and friends. in other places were cured by Paine's celery compound and have used the great life giver theinselyes; no instance of failure or disappointment has been reported; all rejoice because of the banishment of old and dangerous maladies, For these reasons, the people of this village and surrounding country are -ready to testify regarding the merits Of Paine's celery compound, its worth to the afflicted, and its superiority over all other preparations. • At the present time, it will suffice to bate inaition the bale ofone prominent family here who have truly tested and tried the efficaey of Paine's celery corn- pouud, atid derived reselts that are wonderful. Mr. A 11. Watson is the publisher and proprietor of Creemore's popular weekly, the Mad 1?iver Star. Every resident of Creemore, and the people of adjacent yillage and towns, knows the enterprising proprietor of the Star, and many are acquainted with his accom- plished and amiable wife. Mrs. Watson is one of the many in the villafe who has tested the curing powers of Paine's celery compound. For many years she suffereci severely frorn violent headache and' prostration. and only got rid of her terrible suffer- ing after a course of treatment with nature's health restorer For the ben- efit of our sttffers,Mrs Watson has kind- ly consented to have her testimony inede'pieblic; she sass:— Formany years I was sorely troub- led with violent heedaches. so that at times I was completely prostrated and unable to attend to household duties. I staked to use Paine's celery compound and experienced immediate relief; and since using it I have not had a recurrenee of the trouble. I consider Paine's celery compound an invaluable remedy, and will always be pleased to say a word for it." The testimony of M. Watson is sure- ly full of encouragrnent to others and. Canada to take the same course, in use the same means. Had she been influenced (as many are at' times by dealers interested in big profit and worthless Medicines) to use some oth- r preparationa cure could not have resnIted. No medicine but Paine's cel• ery eompound can honestly and sure ly meet such cases as violent headache prostration, neryousnets, sleeplessness rheumatism, dyspepsia and run-down constitution. •Avoid all medicinee that are reel:ea-mended just as geed as Paine's celery •tompound; they are snares and delusions, and cannot Cure UNLOCKS ALL THE eCLOCICED SECRETIONS OF THE BOWELS, KIDNEYS AND LIVER, CARRYING OFFGRADUALLY, WITHOUT WEAKEN. • MG THE SYSTEM, ALL IMPURITIES AND FOUL HUMORS.
