A hyacinth bulb, said to be forty
years old, is in bloom in Mrs. Worth-
ington's garden.
Last week a deal for the Waverly
House was being made but as posses-
sion could not be given for two years,
the deal was declared off for the time
being.
The Jackson Mfg. Oo. last week
made a shipment of 1000 lbs. of cloth-
ing to one large clothing house in
Winnipeg, the express charges on
which amounted to $50.
Flick brothers of Colborne township
sold and -delivered to Mr. 0. H. Reid
at Clinton station on Saturday last,
a four-year-old Galloway steer which
JO- tipped the beam at 1510 pounds.
Three Baseball matches Will be on
the program on May 24th at Clinton.
In the morning at 0.36 the. Tigers
and Giants will open up the ball sea-
son ; at 11 a.m. the Cubs will try and
take the Pirates into Camp. At 3
o'clock Goderich and Clinton will open
the Huron and PerthLeague.
Th'e petitions which have been circ-
ulated asking that the local work -day
begin an hour nearer sunrise and end
at five p.m, instead of six o'clock, have
been numerously signed. 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.

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..
