Since the Japandse boy's home sonsists of a group of islands dense- ly populated, and since he lives largely upon fish or other produitts of the sea, he is bred to a familiarity with things marine such as feeinpos- gess. Inborn. fearlessness and the teaching of his Buddhist or Shinto religion, give physical courage which the Japanese hate frequently shown in the past ages, but siever more than in their recent war with China in 1894, and in the march with the allies to Pekin in 1900. Another quality which the training of the sea develops in the, Japanese boy is • presence of mind and neediness in ex -Urgencies. Japan is ancouritry Of magnificent deep -water harbors, and, cut up as it is by many inlets, bays, and straits, it oilers unusual opportunity tor eoncentrating a fleet AT ALMOST ANY POINT, • and then, by moving through interim deep waterways, striking an enemy unexpectedly. Accordingly, extensive naval centres nave -been established at Yokohama, Kure, *Uraga, Sasso - bo. Moji, and Nagasaki. At th.e close of the war with China in 1895, Japan's Bghting facet consisted of forty-three vessels and twenty-six torpedo boats, an ftggregate of 78,774 tons ; of these eten of an aggregate displacement of 15,055 tons had been captured from the Mines°, namely, one armor -clad battleship, two steel cruisers. This captured battleship was, until the new ones just finished, the nrst Japan had ever owned ; her fleet until then consisted solely of cruisers and gunboats. With the war in- demnity amounting to 220,000,00O tants secured from China, Japan be. gat immediately a shipbuilding pro- gramme by which she is to have be- fore Apra, 1904, four in -et -class battleships a 15,240 tons each, six first -doss armored cruisers of 9,200 trszts each, three second-class cruis- ers of 4,850 tons each, two third- class cruisers of 3,200 tons each, olio torpedo depot ship, eleven tor- pedo boat destroyers, and eighty- nine torpedo boats. These are to be in addition to tho vessels in service at the time of the receipt of the in- demnity. The contracts were let to the United States, Croat Britain, Germany, and Franco, with the re- sult that already more than ono - half the total number have been de- livered, and the remaining vessels Will. be easily FINISHED WITHIN THE Tam. Th keep pace with the shipbuilding a: sufficient increane in the personnel has also been instituted, and officers and men are ready as the ships are completed. The enlisted men are re- cruited by voluntary enlistnient, by conscription or enrolment from the fishin g fleets, and by transfers of privates in the army to service with the. fleet. The officers are educated an, the Imperial Naval College lit Talcio, the Engineering College at Yokaeuica, or the General Naval Settee's at Se.ssebo and Kure. The , system of education is very similar to that pursued at the 'United States Naval Acadezny at Annapolis, Md. Afany of the officers are educated in tho.emademies of the United Statee and Europe, the jaminese being ad-. raitted by. speciallegislative - action .to. enter the various foreign naval schools for purposes of study and observation. - Tho Japanese handle their ships well, aud seem to learn rapidly how to profit by the good points in foreign navies. They have no scruple as to the adoption of any plan or de- vice they may see better than that now in use. Unfortunately, the gen- eral unhealthy state of the financial condition of the empire does not al- low. largo appropriations for coal or for earget practice, with the result that in the antual manoeuvring of the ehips and firing of the guns the officers and crews have comparative- ly tittle practice. TESTINII OF DAIRY 0017.8. acw.IT isCONDITOTZ3) cir xsa DAIRIES. SO e Suggestions Whieli the Par- mers of Ca,nade, Xight Aclopt. The faxzners of Denmark have evolved a very sueeessful co-opera- tive system of testing dairy cows, which hus. proved of great value in raising .the standard of their benis, A eitort siceteti .01 the plan which they have followed may prom of in- terest to Canadian dairymen, who might well imitate their Daniell coM- petitors in this partieular at least. Four chief objeets aro kept in view In organizing these tasting associa- tiones (1) That the feed given the cows inuet, as mucit as possible, be weighed or measured. (2) That each Cow's daily milk yield is weighed once per week, or at least sufficiently often so that accidental influences may not have any serious elfeet. (8) That the percentage of fat in each cow's milk yield is tested sufficient- ly often to eliminate accidental in- fluences. (4) That an exact ac -- count is kept in such a manner as to fahow the relation between the butter yield ...ea the food consumed. '. THE ORIGINAL ASSOCIATION, that of Veen, had 13 members, ag- gregatieg 800 rows, and the ilrst Year's expenses wore $175; but the Government recognized at once the importance of this in.oveniont and gave them a grant of $62.50. Some of the by-laws of the origlnal asso- ciation ciaciared that: "Tin; object of the association was to build up t a race of cows which would give a 'large yield of rich milk; the member- . ship should be limited temporarily to 12 or 18, who agreed to let the milk of each cow he tested every 14 days; the • expenses should be fliS- tri'buted in proportion to tile fat tests . madia, and collected twice la year; three directors should be chosen, one of whom should resign every third year after the first two years, and Who should elect 11pre- sident and secretary -treasurer; the association should continue for five • years, and no member should with- draw before that time, uniees on ac- count of removal fora the dis- trict." The dims:inn-a of the associ- ation enga.gehl a "tester" who took samples and tested the rank of each cow, And for whose -use reliable ap- paratus was bought. The tester also kept exact records Of the milk yield of each cow and the feed con- sumed in proportion to the yield of butter, and also prepared tables showing the comparative value, of the various individual coevs and herds as economical producers, so that those ecnnahaving 'apecia,1 values for breeding purposes might be selected. At the close of thefirst near'a work the Governenent appropriated $2,500 to be divided between associ- ations which made proper reports, and the plan spread very rapidly. By 1897 it had been clearly demon- strated that the "testers" were also IT WAS DAMAGED.

This Means, Anaemia, and if Neg- lected Consumption' Nay Fol- low—Dr. Williams' Pink Pills the Only Certain Cure. Anaemia, or poor orwatery blood, is a trouble from -which most grow- ing girls, and many young boys suf- fer. It comes at a critical period of the young person's life, and unless prompt steps are taken to enrich the Wood and thus strengthen the. sys- tem, decline, and enest likely con- sumption will follow. Dr. Williu,ms' Pink' Pills is the only medicine that acts directly upon the blood and the nerves, promptly restoring the ail- ingone to complete health and strength. The following statement from Mrs. Lena M. Ryan, of Wel- land, whose daughter was a victim of .anaemia, gives the strongest proof of the value of these pills. Mrs. Ryan says ':—"About three years ago the health of ray daugh- ter, Birdie, became so bad tbat I was seriously alarmed. She was pale and almost bloodless; had no appetite, lost flesh and suffered -from severe headaches. I took heee to a doctor, anti although his treatment was followed for some time, it did not benefit her. I then tried some other remedies, but them also failed, and she had wasted away to a mere shadow of her former self. At this stage I was advised to give her Dr. Williams' Pink Pills, and she began this treatment. Almost from the outset these pills helped her, and as she continued their use, the color came back to her cheeks, her aPpe- tito improved, the headaches ceased to trouble her, and by the time she had taken eight boxes she felt stron- ger and better than she had ever done in her life before. I think Dr 'Williams' Pink Pills are unsurpassed for all ailments of this kind, and strongly recommend them to , other mothers." Dr. Williams' Piuk Pills not only cure all cases like the above, but .also mire allother troubles arising from poor blood or 'weak 'nerves., such as rheumatism, partial .parely- sie, St. Vitas dance, indigestion, kidney and liver troubles, scrofula; and eruptionsof the skin, etc, These pills are also a din cure for the ailments from WhiPE' so many Wo- men suffer in silente. Give the pills a fair trial and they will not dis- appoiat you. The genuine are sold only in boxes that have • the full name "Dr. Williams' Pink Pills for Pale People," en the weapper around every box, if your dealer does not haVO theta, send direct to the Dr. Medicine Co., Brockville, Ont,, and the "pills will be sent posi. for idsnat505‘0 cents a box; or Si.*4 boxes 1.10W CAUSTIC BURNS, Talse a piece of woollen cloth, or S. piece of a blanket, and boil it thor- oughly In a strong solution of Caustic soda, and you will find the Wool wilj gradually be eaten away, leaving nothing bet the skeleton.

The hands also are- immersed for Lours in such solutions, resulting in eczema, coarse ekia, and brittle nails. The caustic soda may loosen. the dirt, but it eats away the fabric and ruins the hands. There is no economy in such work, it is so easy for a =Man to test the diff.erence between an alkali charged soap and a neutral washing soap. that it is strange that there is room for any but a pure soap on the Canadian - market. Sunlight soap has been tested by chemists and analysts thc svorld over, and its freedom from free alkali or caustic has been demonstrated by the highest medical authorities. Consequently the true saying, " Sun- liabt Coati reduces expenses." 602: useful in securing better milk for tho creameriee, and the dairy paper Anailkert 'Ildende sooa had frequent diseuseiona as to the 'week of these 05 olations, notably as regards se- cui lug uniform reports from tile various associatione. JOINT MEETINGS were held and several weak features of the scheme pointed out. lii 1898 Sn,250 was appropriated for the supp.ort of the various associations, and in • 1809 the Vojen aseociatiou again took the lead in including a report as to the raisebeg of calves arid hogs. In the same year at a moral meeting of all the local Ag- ricultural canociatioes the blank forms of the test associations were fully diecussed and uniform methods agreed upon. 1n 1900 we find four distinct asso- ciations comprising in all about 240 test associations, and the results compiled from the reports of the va- rious districts furnish a great deal of valuable information. For in- stance, the old notion that a larger flow of milk must necessarily give a lower percentage of fat was dis- proved. Most important of all a co-operation was effected between the tett associations and the breeders' associations, (bull associations), and a chief inspector was appointed in ono district, who helped to select the cows entitled to be bred to cer- tain 'bulls and to superyise the keep- ing of the herd books. The "Maeikert Ticlende" sends blanks to the associations, and -when these are filled publishes thorn and sends copies to all the mem- bers. Indeed everyone interested in dairying helped the plan along, and this explains why there are over 250 such associations. As an example of -the practical re- sults obtained, three years' work of the Faarup association may be quot- ed. Accordieg to the nicielkert Tie donde tho average results per cow in the herds tested were. fie follows: lbs. fat Year milk butter Per cent 1899-1900 5162 191 8.84 1900-1901 5284 202 8.44 19014 6101 902 238 3.50 This shows an improvement in the average yield of 47 Dee. butter per cow by testing and selecting in three years. -The work of these assoeia.- tions is evidently the keynote of cheaper milk production, and the co- operative plan offers the only means of securing systematic testing. SO1IE S'UGGESTIONS. • In my opinion something along the above lines should bo. worked out in Oanada., with the creamery or cheese factory, as the nucleus of the move- ment. The tester would make the factory his headquarters,- and if the farmers were trusted to do the weigh- ing of the milk and taking of the samples, it would be possible for one man to do the work for all the farms seneling milk to the average factory. We would require to visit each farm before the test started; take note of all conditions, record the minter, age, etc., of each cow, feed used, etc.; show hew the weigh- ing and sampling ' should be done; lean° enough two ounce bot - ties with initials' of farmer and num- bers stamped thereon to take sep- arate samples of two milldngs, also blanks for filling in food records ev- ery two weeks. • Having thus prepared his patrons they would send in to the factory on certain days, the sample bottles of which the tester would be able to teet a large number daily, and still hone Ulm enough for an occasional surpriee visit to the farms. There would be no reason for the farmer to weigh or take samples . incorrectly, as the total average of each herd would be known by the patron's daily delivery and factory test, and any trickery would soon be discov- creildn'ere is another advantage in this plan and that is that the factory can well afford to pay part of the expenses, because the testers' visits to the farms will also encourage bet- ter care of milk, botter sanitation in the sin.bles, etc. In any case, the main point is to include the test at least for fignring the average every- day cow and heifer, being .fed on the farm, whether they are dry or in milk—that is the crucial test:, thn rest is simply a matter of book- keeping. The fond given cannot to weighed out to each cow. that would be too expensive — but fort- nightly estimates tested by the scales now and then, should be re- corded. . This idea, may not be of die reet benefit to the professional breed - ere, nor to the progressive farmers owning large herds who rnay do their own testing; but the latter may be public spirited enough to join with the small fanners and thus Make the establishment of such a eysteert poSeible. Nevertheless the professional breeder of pure bred dairy cattle would soon find an hreaseri domand for his bulls, when the necessity for better CAWS bad been impressed upon- the farmer by tile testing system, 10, W.

DIABETES CURED, ,PLTYSICIAN AMAZED AT A -QUEBEC .CASE. This Hitherto Ineurable Disease, Has at Last Yielded to Medi- cine — The Statement of a Man Cured of a Very Bad Case Four Years Awe. . Quebec, Jan. 12.—(Special)—Phy- sicians and others interested in naedicine have been very much inter- ested in a remoxkable cure which has been made in this city. If the facts are as reported and the gen- tleman in question has signed a posi- tive statement giving details and all particulars—tbis case will mark a new era in the treatment of at least ono hitherto incurable disease. Some few years ago, Mr. Sam Desrochers, of this city was almost dead with Diabetes. He had been ill for over five years and toward the last the symptoms became so very marked as to leave no doubt in the minds of his physicians as to the na- ture of the ailment. Ile had an unquenchable thirst, his feet were always cold ; he had some tery acute pains around his, kid- neys. These and many other symp- toms were all present and no one thought for a moment that he could ever recover. He tried every remedy for Diabetes that he could hear of but all failed to do him any good, and when his hope had almost gone he determined to begin a treatment of Dodd's Kid- ney Pills. From the very commencement he began to feel a little better day by day, and as the treatment proceed- ed the unfavorable symplems grew less and less till finally he was com- pletely cured, sound end well. His astonishing recovery created quite a sensation at the time and many wondering inquiries were made by the doctors and others. If he hadn't Diabetes then nobody ever had it, and Diabetes was incurable —Then how could he be cured by Dodd's Kidney Pills ? The cure was only temporary and it would return was what many said. Now, however, after four years htive elapsed Mr. Desrochers stoutly dedares that he has riot since had the slightest symptom of his old trouble. Every one is convinced that Diabetes is curable and that Dodd's Kidney Pills will cure it. She — "Whom do you care most for, Jack?" He — "le it possible you do not know whom I love best in all this world?" She — "Yes, know; but next to him?" • • • POSITIVELY CURES Rheumatism Neuralgia Backache Headache Feetache All Bodily Aches AND NQ E S AI 0 iA4811-t-t14:8,8tRXittl:IP*0 8-03 woNDEurn sdA;tao.
