WEATHER AND CROPS.
The meteorlogical authorities in
this province, in their report for May,.
make a revelation that will surprise
many. They say that though the
Weather during the month through-
out Ontario was cloudy, cool and
gloomy, the temperature was average
in many districts, and in no case does
the mean show more than 3 degrees
below. This disagreement between the
actual facts and the observer's feel-
ings is doubtless owing to the very
large amount of cloud and the small
range of temperature between the
day and night hours. There was
several light but "killing" frosts in the
eastern portion of the province, and
one on the night of the 21st in the
Western portion, where young
potatoes and other delicate plants
were in many instances completely
destroyed. Excepting :in Eastern
Ontario, where spring grain is very
backward and fall wheat in poor con-
dition, the opinion prevails that all
crops are doing remarkably well.
Spring wheat and other grain crops are
rather backward, but are extremely
healthy, and the hay crop promises to
be enormous. The quantity, of blos-
soms upon nearlyl all fruit trees is
very large. Seeding in northern and
northwestern districts was much de-
layed owing to unusually wet weather.
This is so far satisfactory, but June
grumblers
will have to improve, or the
'will have their opportunity.

BEST FEED MOST PROFIT.
The Canadian Packing Company
has added its testimony to that of
other packers throughout the country
against any attempt on the part of
the farmers to change the feed of
their pigs from a mixed diet, chiefly
composed of peas and barley, to one
of cora. We believe that the large
Majority of bog raisers would not for
a moment think of disregarding the

but it t
advice of the packers,
for anyone Who may be tempted to do'.
so to understand that it would be a
losing speculation. Solely by the
method of feeding adopted in Canada,
combined with the skilful cutting of
the meat and the careful process of
preparation for market, our farmers
and packers have secured a reputation
for Canadian bacon in Great Britain
which enables the producer to pocket
2 cents per pounds live weight, off the
cars. more than has been paid in
Chicago for fatty, corn -fed pork. As
a matter of fact, we learn from a
London, England, correspondent, Can-
adian is the finest bacon on the mar-
ket today in point of quality, admitted-
ly superior to Danish, while the gulf
between it and the United States is
shown by prices, which are from >s
to 12s in favor of the Dominion
product. -- • -. _- -
NOTES AND COMMENTS
A resolution of l'. S. Congressman
Hill calls for a commission of three
to meet a like commission from Can-
ada to consider mutual commercial
relations. The opportunity is past,
however, for such conference to be of
much practical result. Canada has
made all the overture of this kind
that she will be disposed to make for•
a long time to come. The last step
in that direction, wade in so undiplo-
matic a fashion by Messrs. Laurier
and Cartwright, was met by the Ding-
ley tariff wall, and there has been a
rebound toward Great Britain in a
still more undiplomatic way, with an
equally humiliating and confusing re-
bound from the German and Belgian
treaties. The net result will be that
Canada will rest upon her own tariff
without preference extended to any
other nation unless preference is re-
turned, upon .wh ich basis the powers
that be will have all they' can do to
make the reviuue fit the yearly ex-
penditure. As pointed out by the
London Times, which seems to under-
stand the situation now better than
formerly. "Canada stands midway
upon an Imperial high road, where
she may . regard with relative indif-
ference the fence erected- on the
southern frontier."

I :,.:utters of health and life no man
or r. omen can afford to take risks or
experiment foolishly. A wrong move
or following the advice of the careless
or ignoralit, may result in serious
complications. This is especially true
in regard to the use of
medicines when
'
people are it: a low condition of health.
When the physical powers are im-
paired, when you are weak, nervous,
irritable,desponclent,sleepless or weigh-
ed down with that dull and tired feel-
ing that usually commences at this
season of the year, it is• wise and pru-
dent to use the medicine that has given
health, vim and activity to thousands
"of weak people in the past.
This safe, certain and health -giving
remedy is Paine's Celery Compound
which is now so extensively prescrib-
ed by the ablest doctors in Canada.
The indorsers of Paine's Celery Com-
pound, besides those in the ordinary
walks of life, are clergymen, lawyers,
indges, members of parliament and
bankers, hundreds• of whoml it has
rescued from suffering and death.
Avoid the numberless liquid medi-
cines that are worthless from a medical
standpoint, and that have never
gained the shadow of reputation. Put
your faith in Paine's Celery Compound,
and when you purchase be sure you
are supplied with the right article.
See that the bottle and box bear the
name "Paine's Celery. Compound" and
the stalk of celery; this is the only
genuine make -the kind that makes
• people well.
