EDITORIAL NOTES.
—The fanner of the hour proposes
to use less brawn and more brains,
giving the drudgeries to the machin-
ery and leaving himself time to solve
the farm problems which can turn Ioss
into a profit. Throughout the North-
west the gang plough, drawn by a
gasoline tractor, ploughs one and one-
fourth acres an hour at a cost of
'750 per acre. With the old-style
plough two acres a day could be
ploughed at an expense of two dollars
an acre. So with other lines the days
of drudgery on the farm are past, for
the men at least. Now for more com-
forts, conveniences, and labor-saving
things for the domestic department.
—Because so many farmers have
left Ontario to go to the Northwest,
there is no cause for worry. Their
places will be taken here by newcom-
ers. The vacant farms in Ontario are
being picked up by Old Country far-
mers, and the young men of the On-
tario farms are every year learning
that scientific farming in Ontario is
both profitable and pleasant. More
and znore young men in Ontario are
taking courses at the Guelph Agricul-
tural College and reaping the benefit
of its teaching on their farms,
tant fields look green, but already
then who have made money out West
are looking back to Ontario, good old
Ontario, for old homesteads, where
they may spend the remainder of their
days amid familiar scenes of youth.
There is no occasion to worry about
the exodus to the West. These mat-
ters right themselves.
—It is apparent that for some years
to come owing to railway, mining and
other large construction work in Can-
ada, there will be a continuous de-
mand for draught horses of the best
class. As the industry grows there is
going to be an increasing need for
good big draught stallions. The size
of the mares in districts where the
horses are to stand will determine
very lardy the size of the etallions
used. It is not a wise policy to get a
big, slow stallion weighing a ton or
more for use in a pony mare district,
The stallion should weigh from 500 to
000 pounds more than the mares. In
a vicinity where mares weigh 1,400 to
1,800 pounds the ton stallion is the
horse to be used. Weight must be
present in a draught horse, for it is
weight that brings the highest market
price. The best financial return is
made from the production of geldings
weighing 1,600 and upwards.
WORDS OF WARNING.
Justice Riddell in addressing the
grand jury at Toronto the other day,
uttered words in regard sympathy
with crime which are worth ponder-
ing at a time when a veritable carni-
val of murder and crime is sweeping
over Canada. This is what the judge
said :—
"On visits to the United States I
have heard references made to the
law-abiding character of Canadian in
the highest terms, and the uprightness
with which the criminal law is admin-
istered in Canada, I am not sure that
we in Canada are still upholding that
high standard, and I feel there is get-
ting abroad amongst Canadians a
sense that is not of Very great import-
ance after all that crime should be
punished, and that it is a pity to pun-
ish those who have committed crime,
and that means should be taken to
effect escape of those who are un-
doubtedly guilty. That is a very false
sympathy which has been the curse of
a great part of this decade. We now
are at the parting of the ways, and
have to determine whether life and
property shall be secure in the English
sense in which it has been for a Cen-
tury, or whether we are to deteriorate
to that course of civilization Which
characterizes some of the States in the
adjoining country."
The warning is well timed. There
are seven or eight murder cases now
before the Canadian courts, some of
than for most brutal crimes. Wheth-
er the disposition at Ottawa to repri-
eve murderers has anything to do
with these murders is problematical,
but certainly it is high bite we did
some close reasoning, and determine
that no sympathy shall be shown to
erlsrzo in Canada. Else we shall soon
Ioss our good reputation,

—It is said that the Ontario Ooveru-

—A starving sow ran among a num-
ber of children who were playing on
the roadside near Enniskillen on Sat-
urday of last week and knocking
down the 3 year-old daughter of Mr.
Martin Massel, blacksmith of Enniskil-
len, proceeded to make a meal off the
child. Her 7 -year-old brother, with
great presence of mind, dragged the
little girl away, the sow following and
snapping viciously at her with its
teeth. The heroic action of her bro-
ther alone prevented the child being
eaten by the sow,—[Bruce Times.
—No less than seven wife murders
have blotted the annals of Ontario
during the last eighteen months—
truly, an awful record. The murders
were :—
McLaughlin case at Uxbridge.
BIythe ease at Agincourt.
Weldmark case at Smith's Falls.
Hunter case at Bobeaygeon,
Adams case near Guelph.
Washington case at Toronto.
Dressler case at Leamington,
In the last four cases the husband
also took his own life.
—Lewis Fisher of the suburbs of
Flesherton owns four cows and 55 hens
that produced 90 doz. eggs and 144 lbs,
of butter in the month of April. The
eggs were sold for 20c per doz. and the
butter in pound prints with printed
wrappers sold for 27/c pound, making
a total of $57.00. Two of the cows
have been giving milk for seven
months. No hay was fed, the feed
consisting principally of ensilage. Six
pounds of chop were fed to each cow
per day. This is conclusive evidence
that the silo is a paying investment.
—A wireless telegraphy station near
Berlin claims to have established a
record in combined overland and sea
transmission of wireless messages.
The station recently succeeded in
maintaining wireless communication
with an ocean liner during the entire
voyage from Hamburg to the Cam-
eroon. The greatest distance signaled
was 6,600 kilometers (over 4,000 miles).
Although messages had to pass over
the Alps, the Algerian tableland, and
the Adamana Range, communication
war, it is stated, effected with aston-
ishing ease,
—An old man—seventy or so—was
led rather unwillingly to the altar by
a widow of about forty-five. rte was
a slow-witted old fellow, and the min -
later couldn't get him to repeat the
responses properly. Finally, in des-
pair, the minister said :—"Look here,
my friend, I really can't maty you un-
less you do what you are told." But
the aged bridegroom still remained
stupid and silent, and the bride, losing
all patient° with him shook him
roughly by the arm and hissed "Geo
on, you old toot l Say it after him jest
as if you were mocking him."
STOMACH AGONY.
Abolish The Cause, And Misery And

Can indigestion be cured? Hundreds
of thousands of people who suffer
from belching of gas; biliousness, sour
stomach, fullness, nausea, shortness of
breath, bad taste in mouth, foui
breath, nervousness and other dis-
tressing symptoms, are asking them-
selves that question daily,
And if these same doubting dyspep-
ties could only read the thousands of
sincere letters from people who once
suffered as badly as they da now, but
who have been quickly and perman-
ently cured by the use of Mi-o-na, the
mighty dyspepsia remedy- that cures
by reproving the cause, they would go
to J, W. Mcltibbon this very day and
get 6/large box of Mi•o-na tablets, and
start themselves on the right road to
health at one°.
The price of Mt -o -art tablets is only
