(Tho Weekly Sun.)
Questioned the other day in the.
Legislature the Minister of Public
Works stated that the new Govern-
ment House would cost, complete and

turned from the simplicity of old John
Sanfield Macdonald,. who trembled to

It has never been explained how
Sir James Whitney was led into this
folly. Simple is his own life, and, in
fact, a democrat,
it is supposed by
some that, adopting the political prin-
ciples of imperialism, he was led to
think an aristocracy essential to the
success of his principles, and a million -
dollar palace necessary for the creation
of an aristocracy. In support of this
view it is asserted that the erection of
the new Government House was re-
solved almost at the moment of the
Duke of Connaught's decree of uni-
forms for the Lieutenant -Governors, in
which, first in these parts, John Morison
Gibson shone resplendent. Democracy

In the busy world of dairying even a
few meagre calculations show great
differences, whether in cows, their own-
ers, the land, the bank deposits or the
test of fat, etc; fat and lean mixed,
good results and poor, even on adjoining
farms, even in two stalls in the one
stable. One owner gets perhaps 200
pounds of milk from each lean, hungry
acre; a neighbor, with better methods
produces the fat total of seventeen hun-
dred pounds of milk per acre, keeping
16 good cows on a web tilled
eighty acre farm. One milk producer,
with poor cows, never tested, possibly'
never web fed, gets the lean average
of less than three thousand pounds of
milk per cow; another producer, who is
a real dairyman, revels in the know-
ledge of each of 1)18 sixteen cows giv-
ing over eight thousand pounds of milk
that will test fairly rich in fat.
Then when it comes to feeding fcr
profit, not simply for existence; we find
one man with a hundred pounds of milk
costing him only 50 cents for feed, but
a neighbor has to admit the impeach-
ment of milk costing him per hundred
at least 90 cents, perhaps over a dollar.
So one will make the fat profit above
feed of over thirty dollars per cow,
while his neighbor is down to the lean
margin of only three dollars. Why do
such amazing differences occur? Prim-
arily because dairymen have not stud-
ied each cow individually. Dairy re-
cords alone can shed light on these pro-
blems. Milk and feed record forms,
simple, easily kept, may be had free
from the dairy division, Ottawa; apply
today, and make each cow you own
earn a good fat profit.

success of his principles, and a million -

"Fruit -a -rives" are the only pill
manufactured, to my way of thinking.
They work completely, no griping
whatever, and one is plenty for any
ordinary person at a dose. My wife
was a martyr to,Constipation. We tried
everything on the calendar without
satisfaction, and spent large sums of
money until we happened on "Fruit-

their favor.
We have used them in the family for
about two years and we would not use
anything else as long as we can get
"Pruit-a-tives".
Their action is mild, and no distress
at all. 1 have recommended them to
many other people, and our whole
family uses them"

In the busy world of dairying even a
few meagre calculations show great
differences, whether in cows, their own-
ers, the land, the bank deposits or the
test of fat, etc; fat and lean mixed,
good results and poor, even on adjoining
farms, even in two stalls in the one
stable. One owner gets perhaps 200
pounds of milk from each lean, hungry
acre; a neighbor, with better methods
produces the fat total of seventeen hun-
dred pounds of milk per acre, keeping
16 good cows on a web tilled
eighty acre farm. One milk producer,
with poor cows, never tested, possibly'
never web fed, gets the lean average
of less than three thousand pounds of
milk per cow; another producer, who is
a real dairyman, revels in the know-
ledge of each of 1)18 sixteen cows giv-
ing over eight thousand pounds of milk
that will test fairly rich in fat.
Then when it comes to feeding fcr
profit, not simply for existence; we find
one man with a hundred pounds of milk
costing him only 50 cents for feed, but
a neighbor has to admit the impeach-
ment of milk costing him per hundred
at least 90 cents, perhaps over a dollar.
So one will make the fat profit above
feed of over thirty dollars per cow,
while his neighbor is down to the lean
margin of only three dollars. Why do
such amazing differences occur? Prim-
arily because dairymen have not stud-
ied each cow individually. Dairy re-
cords alone can shed light on these pro-
blems. Milk and feed record forms,
simple, easily kept, may be had free
from the dairy division, Ottawa; apply
today, and make each cow you own
earn a good fat profit.
