Say what you will, pies; are pigs, and nothing quite tales the plaee of a Wal- lowing hole to a real, flesh and blood pig, Says Rural Farmer. There are some wallowing holes, we have seen, that are practieally a menace to the entire farm; a breeder of disease germs and a favorite plaoe for the develop - (it' the house and stable fly. There are other wallows that are en- tirely safe. A hog washes himsolf by putting on a good eoat of mud and then rubbing it off. It is not according to our Idea of bathing, but that is another story. Ilogs that have good wallows are raid to put on flesh much more quielc- ly than those that have none. One l'easoil is that the fluid and water keep off the Illei„End they will ent in the middle of a day, whereas, if it is a dry pasture and the ales are troublesome they will lie in the shade and not care ato eat except in the morning, when it Is cooler. A hog wallow should be by the side of a creek, never in it, and it is always best if you can have it with running water. A few tablespoonfuls of sheep dip_ should' be frequently put in a bucket of water and thrown in the wallow. CUTTING LAMBS' TAILS. Care Should Se Exercised That Infec- tion Does Not Ensue. At this season of the year there is nothing serious about the simple oper- ation of taking off the tails of Iambs and of castrating them as well, writes G. P. Williams in the National Stock- man. The former should be done with hot pincers made for the purpose, Whicla sear the wound, precluding in- fection from knife and at the same time prevent bleeding, When tills aro taken off in this way we have observ- In form the ehropshire is deep, thick and medium length. This form Is distinctly of the mut- ton type, carries a medium to heavy fleece of very good charac- ter, though, of course, lacking the oil and fineness of the Merino breed. The breed is well adapted to graz- ing, they stand cold climates well and are exceptionally good moth- ers. The sires are used to a large extent upon the fine wooled strains, imparting a greater vigor and strength to the lambs, improving their feeding qualities and produc- ing greater size. The illustration pictures a pair of Shropshire year- ling lambs. ed that the lamb notices tbe operation much less than when the knife or chisel Is used. Castration is best accomplish- ed by Srst cutting the lower belt or more of the scrotum squarely off with a slier) knife. If less be cut off diffi- culty es experienced in taking hold of the testicles, and the lamb is caused unnecessary agony by reason of the 'unusual pinching and working with the testicles before they can be drawn out. When tails are taken from late lambs Tho stub should he well girdled with pine tar to prevent the work of flies. But this Is by no mane a sere pre- • ventive, and very often the eggs may be found to have been deposited re- gardless of the most careful prectin- tom Theee lambs should be watehed till the wound be healed, In ease mag. gots are found, catch the Iamb and pour In gasoline. This will not harm or hurt the lamb and is sure death to the Veering. A Caw and a Scrub.

We have peace within our own borders. We have learned the lessons taught by lean times, anc. so are prepared to face the days ahead. Our farmers are prospering by reason of the present conditions —and when agriculture flourishes, the business out- look is one of good hope and good cheer. Some Canadian industries and mercantile enterprises must suffer because of the partial suspension of trans -oceanic trade. But more industries will be stimulated to supply our home demand, which MUST be satisfied. It is a time of business opportunity in Canada.

A correspondent writing in a Paris, France, paper, says: I have been talking with British of- ficers from the front, who tell of the wonderful coolness and daring of the British soldiers in the fighting around Mons on Sunday. The shooting of the British infantry- men on the firing line was wonderful, Every time a German's head showed above a trench and every time the German infantrymen attempted to rash a position, there came a steady with- ering rifle fire from the khaki -clad men lying in extended formation along the wide battle front. Their firing was net the usual firing of nervous men shootingwithout aiming; rather it was the calm and careful marksmanship of men one sees on English rifle ranges firing with all the artificial aids per- mitted to the match expert. When quick action was necesarry the men showed no nervousness, no excite- ment; they showed cool, methodical efficiency for which the British army is noted. If the British lost heavily, the Ger- mans must have lost terribly. One of the German prisoners said: We had never expected anything like it; it was staggering. The British troops went to their po- sitions silently, but happily. There was no singing, because it was forbidden, but as the men deployed to the trench- es there were various sallies of humor in the dialects of the various English, Irish and Scotch countries, The Cock- ney was there with quips about "Uhcle Bill" and every Irishman who went into the firing line wished he had money to buy a little Irish horse so that he might 'take a slap at the Uhlans.' As for the cavalry, the officers de- clare, their charges against the Ger- mans were seperb. They charged as Berserks might have done. They gave the Uhlans the surprise of their lives. With the close of the flrst series of combats between the British and Ger- mans, the scene Of interest shifted to the Paris railway station, where the injured British soldiers were being taken. The handling of the wounded was all that could be desired; every- thing was perfectly organized and with- out theatrical display. The station at the time was crowded with Americans on their way to Eng- land from Switzerland. The Americatis joined with the French in cheering for the first atrivals of British from the scene of the fighting. While the crowd waited, train after train rolled by carrying fresh British troops to the front. Had Severe Stomach Trouble and Sick Headache Could Not Eat Anyth ng Without Agonizing Pain My health is better now than it has been for years, and 1 owe it to Mit. burn's Lan -Liver Ivliss Rose Doyle, Connaught, Out, "1 W43 for several years troubled with severe stomach trouble and sick headache. Could not eat anything without agoniz- ing pain. My sick headaches were most violent, and I could not rest night or day. I became emaciated and thor- oughly despondent, and no medicine seemed to help me until I took Mil - burn's Laxa-Liver Pills. In five months I was entirely cured."

Hugh Clarke and a bunch of members were in the House of Com- mons restaurant talking over things in general, when one of them remarked: "lf I wore a wrist watch, I couldn't get elected in my constituency." "It's worse than that in North Bruce," chIpped in Colonel Hugh, "A wrist watch is an outward and visible sign of weakness, but my constituents look deeper. They get right down to the skin in these matters." "Do you know what did a lot to beat John Tolmie!" continued the Colonel. "Outside of my own personal merits, I mean! You'd never gress it! A re- port got about among the North Bruce faamers that John wore the Bahylonish garments. John never had a chance to deny it, because it was never charged against him on the platform. The fatal story was whispered on the, side lines. it did its deadly work there. Presby- terian sentiment was much aroused against John Tolmie for encouraging Oriental practices. The loose flowing nature of the yes. •sent was dwelt upon at great length, and John Toirme be- came known in some districts hs The Pasha. That cooked his goose for him. North 13ruce might stand for John Tol- mie in kilts, but never in pyjamas. My majority in that election was eighty- two. It was the anti -pyjama vote that settled it, not anti-recipracity." 'And what did you wear yourself, Hugh?" put in Colonel Morphy of North Perth. "Why," said Col. Hugh, fidgeting, "I wear a night-shirt, but that's not for publication in North Brnce."

After using a few boxes- of the ointment I was completely cured, and can recom- mend it highly to all sufferers from this disease. You have my permission to use this letter for the benefit of others." Mr. James M. Douglass, Superior 5unction, at., writes:—"For about six years I suffered from piles, and often could not work for two or three days at a time, so great was the suf- fering from pain and itching. Doctors treated mo in vain, and I tried many treatments before I came across Dr. Chase's Ointment. Two boxes of Dr. Chase's Ointment cured me, and for several months I have had no return of this annoying ailment."
