In the Busy Man's Magazine is told how Frank Cahill of Saskatoon be- came very wealthy :— Nine years ago Cahill went up into the Goose Lake country and settled on a homestead, his only possessions be- ing a yoke of oxen, a wagon and $9 in cash, besides a plow. To -day he is worth a million. One day Cahill yok- ed up his oxen and set out for Saska- toon, thirty miles away, to purchase supplies with his $9, Arriving in Saskatoon he saw a "chance," and, like an American, he didn't let it pass. Ile gave over his oxen and wagon for a six months' option on twenty acres of land just outside of the town, and this he divided into 100 lots. Then he went among the surrounding settlers and convinced them that the day was not far distant when Saskatoon was to be the greatest railroad and com- mercial center west of Winnipeg. His .proposition seemed like giving the lots away. He would go to a man with two or three hundred acres of grain and say to him "I'll make you over the deed to one of these lots, or more, if in return for each lot you give me the product of two acres of your grain crop for three years." What was two acres out of two hun- dred or more ? Nothing, thought the farmers, and they jumped at this easy way of speculating in Saskatoon real estate. The result was astonishing. The one hundred lots were sold, and in return 200 acres of wheat land for three years, absolutely without cost to himself. The deal netted him 16,000 bushels of wheat, or about $14,000. He paid $100 an acre for the land, so he cleaned up a profit of $12,000, and before others 'discovered what a boom he had given to the town real estate he had secured other options on about 400 acres of the most desir- able property. And the farmers did' not loose for Cahill's prediction was a true one and to -day Saskatoon has nine lines of, steel leading into and from it, thirty wholesale houses, and a population of 10,000. Cahill is a millionaire, and the "big" real estate dealer of that part of Saskatchewan. LIST OF FALL FAIRS. Brussels Oct. 0 and 7 Dungannon Oct. 0 and 7 Goderich....

The wireworm is working overtime this season and turners are complain- ing of its depredations. Scientists claim that this pest thrives in old sod. Farm help is scarce and many farmers are seeding their land to grass and let. ting it remain such fora longer time than formerly. Hence, the increase in the wireworm supply, The chain of circumstances is interesting. Less help, more sod, more wireworm; more wireworm, less crop. You begin with less and end with less, yet have more in the middle. Who can solve the riddle ? The solution that naturally suggests itself is less land in sod or land In sod for a shorter terns of years. This means shorter crop rota- tion. A shorter crop rotation means more work. And there you are—farrn. help is scarce.. If aborter crop rota- tion is the only remedy it looks asif the fanner were up against it pretty hard. There is room on this wire - worm question for the scientist to still further exert himself. It might be possible to find some parasite that would play upon the wireworm and greatly lessen the number, .Again, it might not be impossible to find some insecticide which could be convenient- ly distributed over the land and which would put the wireworm out of busi- ness, Here is an opportunity for the Scientist to make himself famous. Brussels. Six or eight cars of hardwood !um- ber have been shipped during the past week from the Ament mill yards to various outside points. David Ross who has been a resident of Brussels, for the past 42 years, cele- brated his 8•lth birthday on Tuesday of last week. Ile is a remarkably smart man for his years and enjoys comparatively good health. Nearly 200 passengers were ticketed from Brussels to Wingham on the 12th. They went by the regular 11 o'clock train and were brought home near midnight by a special. It takes July the 12th to catch the crowds. A big time has been put in at the Pryne mill dam in dynamiting the rock in the bed of the proposed flume to secure room for the new water wheels to be placed there, instead of under the mill as has been the case. An electric dray or 'bus has been purchased by Messrs. Forbes, the rural telephone contractors, for the purpose of conveying the men and necessary supplies to and from work in a hurry. It was procured in Strat- ford and will carry 16 passengers. Miss Bertha Sharpe has gone to Toronto to take a position as tele- phone operator. She will no doubt 1111 the place competently as she had a long training in the Bell central here. Miss Bertha will be missed in social and musical circles. Vinegar Talks By The Wilson 'Lytle Badgerow Co., Toronto (The Larged Vinegar Works In' America) TALK NO. 3—PURITY OP VINEGAR. If we value our health we must have absloutely pure vinegar. No other should be tolerated for a moment on our family table for our children to use. Many vinegars are niade from subtle acid and are highly dangerous for food. Then again unscrupulous manufacturers have been known to fortify or strengthen a very weak vinegar by adding small amounts of injurious acids. It is also possible to so weaken a good vinegar by the in- troduction of water that it will almost be valueless, Wilson's vinegar being made under Government supervision and from spirits which are distilled from grains is guaranteed to be absolutely pure. Not the slightest particle of adultera- tion of any kind is permitted to enter into the manufacture of Wilson's. Demand Wilson's from your grocer. If he has not got Wilson's, the grocer up the street has. Do not take any other. Morris. - Wild raspberries promise well.

Carnegie Library -Opened. A new Carnegie library building was formerly opened in the village of Milverton on June 21th, A grant of $7,000 had been accepted from, the Carnegie trust, Kinloss Man Injured.. Mr, Wm. Thompson of Kinloss met with a painful accident recently. IIs was assisting in the treatment of a splint on a horse when the animal reared andon coming down crushed Mr. Thompson against a wall, The result was a broken collar bone which will lay Mr. Thompson up for some time.. Provincial Finances, Although the financial year of the Province is only eight months on its way, the receipts in at least one de- partment at Queen's Park have al, ready exceeded the estimate of the Provincial Treasurer, For the eight months to June 30 receipts from the liquor license department reached the total of $512,711, In this Budget speech at the last meeting of the Leg- islature, kion. Mr, Matheson estimat- ed receipts from this source at $500,- 000. The returns to date are only $5,0001ess than at this time last year, despite the large number of liquor li- censes cut off in the Province during the year. It is believed that the re- ceipts will reach well towards the 2600,000 mark by October, although most of the license fees have been re- ceived by the Provincial Treasurer, The increase in fees for moving plc ture licenses is shown by receipts for eight months of $5,000 against $1,800 last year. - Too Hot To , Work. Some of the old members of cow - testing associations appreciate the sys- tem very much, and are realizing a profit by it. In the . Shearer, Ont., association, for instance, one man states that be has delivered to the fac- tory almost as much milk from ten cows as he did two years ago from fourteen cows. He has sold one of the ten for $45 for beef. At her best she gave 31 lbs. of milk per day; she is re- placed by a cow costing $50, now giv- ing 41 lbs. of milk per day. This statement shows the immense saving of labor that can be effected by keep- ing cows selected on their records. It is too hot weather to work round and bother with four unnecessary cows if the smaller herd, as indicated above, brings as good a return. If it pays to milk a cow, it pays to milk a good one. The herd needs pruning of the dead, unprofitable wood. Dairy records of individual cows show con - elusively which to lop off., Blank forms are supplied free of charge on application to the Dairy Commission- er, Ottawa. The Farm Well. The shallow farm well is often a source of disease. Perhaps no special attention has been paid to its location or to constructing itin a way to pre- serve the purity of the water supply which it is intended to contain. Lo- cated for convenience near the kitchen door or the confines of the barnyard, it soon becomes polluted with all kinds of filth, from the surface of the Boil or from the sub -strata below. Here the process of pollution con- tinues year after year and attention is only drawn to it when the family be- come i11, or the water becomes so foul as to become offensive to the sense of smell. Then definite action is taken to remedy matters but it is often too late to check the evil that bas been done. There are right and wrong principles in well construction as in everything else. The soil above as well as the soil beneath must be care- fully studied and a. location selected, not for convenience, but for freedom from sources of pollution. In fact it is a doubt whether a proper location for a shallow well can be found on many nay farms. A drilled well sunk away below the sources of pollution is the only safe plan in such cases. It costs more, but what matters it, if the water supply is guaranteed free from pollution and the germs of disease. Sinking Spells Every Few Days "At the time I began taking Dr. Miles' Heart Remedy I was having sinking spells every few days. My hands and feet would get cold; I could scarcely breathe, and could feel myself gradually sinking away until I would be unconscious. Those about me could not tell there was life in me. After these spells I would be very weak and nervous, sleepless and without appetite; had neuralgia ' Ppt1tC' 1l1 my head and heart. After taking the remedy a short time all this disappeared and in a few weeks all the heart trouble was gone." M1.S. !IZZIE PAINTER 8osyl sd Ave. Evansville, Ind.
