To the lei- sure class it is a matter of indifference when the call to labor sounds, but for the toilers, as most of us are, more daylight is rather desirable. Gasoline Dangerous. To handle gasoline requires great care. Good housekeeping relates the following :—A lady who is very prac- tical in other directions, when using gasoline to exterminate carpet -bugs, made the awful mistake of lighting a match to examine a dark corner. In- stantly the whole room was ablaze, She caught up her baby in terror and retreated to a nearby closet, closing the door behind her. .Had that closet been windowless she and the babe would have lost their lives and the house been burned. She broke the window pane with her hands, and both were rescued from the roof by the fire department. The room was closed so tightly that the fire could not make much headway before the firemen arrived, Vigorous rubbing will ignite the gasoline even when there is no fire in the room, but the danger does not even end there. Gasoline is a powerful anaesthetic agent and should never be used in a close room. A friend used it freely about the walls and carpets with the doors and windows closed. Suddenly she grew faint and dizzy. She stag- gered out of the room and crawled upon the porch, but did not quite lose consciousness. A physician told her had she done so there would have been no help for her, for as yet, there h no restorative known to medical science. This is the reason its gas will kill insects and vermin. Teeswater. The Teeswater Band has made an engagement to furnish music at the Corrie lith of May celebration. Mr, Will. iIisco c, who was down with typhoid fever at Toronto, has been taken to his home here, being now convalescent. Quite an unusual number of the re- eidents of the 4th line, Culross, are at the present time suffering from siek- ness of one kind or another. Beginning on Sunday, 22nd inst., the Knox College Gospel Team, cnn- sisting of five students of the college will work in Teeswater and vicinity. A dog belonging to Mr. Angus Mc- Itenzie, 2nd line, Culross, died on Sun- day under circumstances that point strongly to the belief that it was affected with rabies, The dog had been tied up ever since the muzzling by-law was put in force and Mr. Mc- Kenzie cannot account for the ani- mal's contracting the disease unless it was due to confinement. Mrs. Jas Whytock of Culross is un- der the doctor's care with a broken arm, as the result of an accident early Sunday morning. She and Mr. Why - tock were setting out for Iiolyrood to see her sister, Mrs. Elliott, who is seriously ill, and when only a short distance from the house their horse shied from a stone on the road. Both were thrown from the rig with a good deal of force, After a long illness from anaemia, Mrs, Wm. R. Colvin, 4th line, Culross, passed away on Monday morning of last week. For several months Mrs. Colvin had been very low with little hope of recovery so that report of her death caused little surprise. Mrs. Col- vin was esteemed by all who knew her as being possessed in large mea- sure of the virtues that go to making an excellent wife and mother, —Durham will, in all probability, have a new furniture factory erected in that town by the Durham Furni- ture Co. to cost $23,000 and employ t0 hands.

S'pR WART & Cor VALUE OF ENSILAGE.. When Compared With Other Rougheee It le Per Superior. After a. number of experiments at the I ehraslta Agricultural college the feeding value of corn ensilage was found to be far superior to any other roughage, This should convince the farmer that a silo on the fares will tend to improve it wonderfully. rl'4e sxi?eriMen t shows that– Oue ton of ensilage equals one ton sugar beets. Three tons of ensilage equal one ton clover hay. Three and one-half tons of ensilage equal one ton alfalfa bay. Two and one-fourth tons of ensilage equal one ton marsh hay, Three and one-half tonsof ensilage equal one ton prairie bay, One-half ton of ensilage equals one ton pumpkins. Below be gives his estimate of the cost of putting up ensilage and hay and the number of cubic feet occupied by each: One ton of ensilage cost to put pp .113 cents. One ton of hay cost toput up $1.50. One ton of ensilage occupies 50 cubic feet, One ton of bay occupies 500 cubic feet. To this statement he adds the fol- lowing: It will be seen that ten times more space Is required for hay than ensi- lage, and it is hardly possible to con- struct even a cheap hay shed, to say nothing of a barn, for the price re- quired to store for same quantity of ensilage. With tbeordinary hayloft in a good dairy barn the cost of stor- age space would be three titnes that of the silo. The table also gives a comparison between the cost of har- vesting corn ensilage as Compared with hay. It will be seen that corn. ensilage can be put up for alinost one- third the cost of hay. These ligures do not allow for interest on money in vested in machinery or storage. While hay is about three times richer In food elements, it is still an expensive roughage as compared with ensilage. Until the feeder can . flnd a food equal to corn ensilage for even twice A TILE SILO tho cost he had better seriously con sider the silo. Under present condi tions at leastone-fourth of ftll tilt farmers keeping stock in the coru bell will find the silo an economic equip meat. An Here of corn put in the silo is valued at about $35, while the salve corn standing in the Geld and husked In the usual manner is valued at $27 This is accounting for all cost of Aar vesting. Then an acre in the silo worth two in the field, or, putting it another way, the silo doubles the value of the corn crop. How to pickle Sutter. Cover with strong brine and keep in ti cool place. The tub or Jar must be thoroughly cleaned and disiufected be• fore the butter goes into it. Burn sul phur in a pan and turn the tub or jar over it for half an hour. After it has cooled oft it will be ready for the brine. Some butter needs disinfecting as well as the receptacle. THE DAIRYMAN Don't turn the calf to the feed trough with cows and steers and expect It to get a proper amount of feed. It will be fought away, while the older Stock devour the portion It should bare... Right and Wrong Way to Milk Cow. There is a right and a wrong way to milk the cow. The wrong way is to let the calf suck. The cow is kept for her iniik supply, not to gine her best to the ambitious calf. The calf should be separated from the mother. Value of Cleanliness Wherl Milking. The miik will have about 23 per cent fewer bacteria In it when the cow is well cleaned and her flanks moistened before milking. To moisten straw bed- ing before milling eliminates about 50 per cent of the bacteria. A closed pall keeps out about 25 per cent of bacteria. Give the Cow Pure Water. Give the cow none but pure water. it is strange that any farmer should allow his hilt cattle to drink from a stagnant pond which often has a green scum and is full of bacteria. Such water not only endangers the health of the Cow, but also the well being of those who drink the milk. Separator Not at Fault. Some farmers leave pails of milk setting around on the frozen ground or hang theta up some place while they do the "chores" and then "cuss" the cream separator dud its maker be- cause the machine cannot separate as much Cream from chilled milk as from milk separated as near animal heat as possible..
