Don't neglect to treat the oat seed for smut this year. Looks as if spring wet coming w a rush, Are you ready? Constant attention should be gi the ewes at lambing time. Gathering the egg twice a day helps to insure the cleanliness of the product. At Eilmarnock Ayrshire sale Donald & Sons sold cattle of this breed up to £50. If a sow is constipated at farrowing time a lot of trouble may be caused by it. The Baldwin apple originated in Massachusetts about the middle of last century.. A good sow will secrete as much milk as a cow, and should be handled as carefully, Next to good seed thorough cultiva- tion is the chief essential in producing a good corn crop. The little pigs should begin to grow from the first breath. Care will da the trick every time, '1'oo much feed at farrowing time will cause the sow to be feverish, and her udder may become caked. Cut out the male birds as soon as the breeding season is over. Infertile eggs are better than fertile ones. The English Shire is, says the Farm- er and Stock Breeder, reverting to the dark limbs characteristic of former times, As soon as a sow begins to grow heavy, even if she isn't to farrow for six weeks or more, she should have a pen by herself. Belle Model Johanna 2nd, a Holstein cow in the mature class, gave 567.9 lbs of milk and 59,87 lbs of fat in a seven day test in March. If a lamb is chilled take it to the house at once and dip into water as hot as you can bear your hand. Keep the head out, of course. Cultivate the orchard just as soon as the land is fit and keep up cultivation weekly until the cover crop is sown along about the last of June. The use of stale bread for laying hens is coming into extensive use in Wiscon- sin. The bread is made into a mash mixed with skimmed milk or butter- milk. At a sale of Aberdeen -Angus cattle at Elgin the average for 117 bulls was £27 15s 2d., as compared with .227 12s 10d. at the fixture of the previous year. ith van "Fruit -a -fives" Now Known as Woman's Best Medicine WOMEN The Snow apple is believed to have originated on the banks of the St. Law- rence and was probably the product of seed brought from France between 1600 and 1050. The Sacramento Bee claims that in the production of rice the Sacramento valley of California leads the world, not in quantity, but in quality and pro- duction per acre. The Blenheim apple first appeared in in Oxfordshire about the beginning of Iast century. It is one of the freest of apples from fungus trouble and makes excellent apple sauce. Approximately 170 tractors, from thirty-five to seventy-five horse -power will, says The Sacramento Bee, be re- quired in the preparation of the rice acreage of California this year. The sow should be guarded from con- stipation by feeding her roots and oil- meal. She should also have all the clear water she will drink. In very cold weather the chill should be taken off the water. Recent discovery of a Chinese var- iety of oats which is said to Brow with practically no., hull to the grain is arousing interest in flour milling circles about Stockton, Cal., Prof. Zavitz should get on the trail of the oat. Land plowed in the fall should bo harrowed or cultivated as soon as dry enough in the spring. In spring plow- ing keep the harrow in the field and harrow .each day's turn over before quitting for the night. This helps to conserve moisture. Bow's This?

I hold all else, named piety A selfish scheme, a vain pretense; Where centre is not, can there be Circumference? This I moreover hold, and dare Affirm where'er my rhyme may go - Whatever things be sweet and fair, Love makes them so. Whether it be the lullabies That charm to rest the nestling bird Or the sweet confidence of sighs And blushes, made without a word. Whether the dazzling and the flush° Of softly sumptuous garden bowers, Or by some cabin door, a bush Of ragged flowers. 'Tis not the wide phylactery Nor stubborn fast, nor stated prayers That makes us saints; we judge the tree By what it bears. r And when a man can live apart From works, on theologic trust, I know the blond about his heart Is dry as dust. -Alice Carey. James Cumming, an elderly miller of Lyn, was instantly killed by a train on a crossing near Brockville. Ohio has 666,171 employees insured under the new workmen's compensation law. China imports great quantities of old horseshoes and converts the metal into knife blades. James Wickett, a prominent mer- chant in Port Hope, died suddenly in his store Saturday night. A mountain in the Cascade Range has been named "Sir Robert" and a glacier at its foot "Borden." A workman, named Humphries, was killed in an explosion at Nobel in the works of Canadian Explosives. John Flook of Chatham, a Well-known marine contractor in western Ontario, died suddenly at tha dinner table, George Finn, fifteen years of age, living near Oriole, York county, was accidently shot by his elder brother, and the result was in doubt. Albert West a Hamilton Swede, was terribly gashed in an altercation over the war, and Gus Carleton, another Swede, is under arrest, charged with attetnptetr murder. As the men of the Fire Department of Limbach, Germany, are all at the front, the Burgomaster has replaced them with boys, who aredrilled daily to make them as efficient as possible BUYING A HAT iN HAWAII. coo More to Find the Article Thaw It Did to Purchase It. In his eagerness to see a whale dur. tug the voyage between Honolulu and the island of 'Jewell, Homer Croy, who tells about has adventure in Tran. bio .l. Icanetl too far over the rail Hud lost hat. "lrter arriving at the island he climb. ed into u taxicab and told the driver to take him to a hat store, "Do you on. derstand?" be asked. "A hat store." "Yes, for sure, all right" the .Topa- nese chauffeur answered. They went bumping up the street, swung wildly round a corner and final. ly, at the fur side of the town, drew up to the curbing. In the window of the store was a bedstead, on which bung the sten, "This Week Cheap." "What do you mean by taking me to a furniture store?" Mr. Croy demanded. "Dis Elate store," replied the Japa- nese driver, and he pointed to the name of the proprietor, "K. Hata." "I want a hat, not a bed," lir, Croy said, with reeling. "I want it for this," pointing to his bare head, "Yes, for sure. all right." With that the cab whirled down the street and away to the other side of the town, while the taxi bill was mer- rily running up. This time it stopped before a barber shop. "No; 1 don't want anything taken oil' my head. 1 want something put on it." declared Mr. Croy, who was now quite irritated. "Yes, for sure. I understand all right." replied the chauffeur, with a grin. They went clattering just as far to the other side of the town as they could and drew up before a store that as an afterthought apparently carried a line of hats. Mr. Croy had to pay twice the price of a hat on the way to buy it, but this did not seem to worry the driver, who. after the manner e2 automobile drivers, stood up under it bravely. A "Fast" Train. "Speaking or railroads." said the truthful man, "the ultimate word. in my experience. was a certain 'limited' ort wbieh I traveled last summer, Atr, point where we were making our great- est speed a man stood at the side of the track with a moving picture ma- chine. I leaned out of the window and called to him, "How are you get- ting on?" "Ile stopped turning. the crank and spoke with an expression of deep dis- gust: "'It don't scum to be no use,' he said. 'Hold your head still, please. 1 want to get a time exposure.' "-Ev- erybody's. Appius Claudius. Apptus Claudius, surnamed Caecus (the blind). was n Roman statesman who lived during the third century be- fore the Christian era. He was a Bo- man censor, 312 to 308, and consul, 307 to 206. He commenced • the Appian way and completed the Appian aque- duct From his Iloman jurisprudence, oratory, grammar and Latin prose date their beginning. Ile abolished the lim- itation of the full right of citizenship to landed proprietors. In his old age he is said to have become bltud, whence his cognomen "Caecus." Ile was the autbor of works in both prose and verse, or which almost nothing is known. Anthony Trollope's First Earnings. A literary man recalls Anthony Trot, lope's little gloat over the first fruits of his peu. "1 send you a copy of 'The Warden,' " he wrote to Lord Moughton in 1860, "which Mr, Longman assures me is the last or the first edition. There were, I think, only 750 printed, and they have been over ten years is hand. But I regard the book with af- fection, as I made LO 2s. Gd. by the first year's sales, having previously writted and published for years without any such golden result. Since then I have improved even upon that" Trollope, of course, "improved upon that" in noi uncertain fashion. -Westminster Ga- zette. A False Note. "I hear you calling me.'' warbled the daughter from the parlor. "Yes," sang mother from the kitchen:. "1 want you to come here and help me with the dis-s-sties." And then a profound silence reigned. PALPITATION OF THE HEART. Sudden fright or emotion may cause a momentary arrest of the heart's action, or some excitement or apprehension may set up a rapid action of the heart thereby causing palpitation. Palpitation, again, is often the result of digestive disorders arising from the stomach, or may be the result of ober iridulgencc of tobacco or alcoholic drinks. The only way to regulate this serious heart trouble is to use Milburn's Heart and Nerve Pills. Mrs. 3. S. Nicholls, t,istowell, Ont., writes: "I was weak and run down, my heart would palpitate and I would take weak and dizzy spells. A friend ad- vised me to try Milburn's Heart and Nerve Pills, so I started at once to use them, and found that I felt much stronger. 7 cannot praise your medicine too highly, for it Itas done me a world of good."
