Dog Tax And Sheep.
The contention that because Brant
had no dog tax the township wouldn't
be Iiable for sheep killed by dogs
doesn't evidently hold law, as the
Council on Monday last deemed 'it
wise to settle for some twelve sheep
which were destroyed in the township
rather than fight the claim in the
Coutts. The parties who got the
money were Jas. L. Tolton and his
brother Edwin. The latter was
awarded $11.00 for two sheep killed,
while James who had 11 sheep de-
stroyed and 2 others worried was
settled with for $75 00. As the Brant
Council has been warding off claim-
ants for years under the belief that
they were ballet proof . against
liability in the matter, this sudden
discovery of the weakness of their
defence has resulted in the present
Council immediately putting a tax
on dogs to create .a fund to liquidate
future claims, -[Bruce Times,
MOTHERS!

A Good One.
An old settler, who was the father
of twelve children, had rocked each
one of his tribe in the Fame old cradle.
One evening, when he was rocking the
newest arrival, his wife remarked that
the old cradle was about worn out,
and migLt fall to pieces. "It is about
done fel.," replied Ezekiel, solemnly.
Then, handing her a ten dollar bill, he
added, "The next time you go to town
get t new one, a strong one -one that
v: i.1last."
A Big Concern,
The year 1010 was a very prosperous
one for ton Canadian Pacific Railway.
Its earnings reached over the hundred
million dollar mark -in fact came
nearer one hundred and one millions,
and this without including the revenue
from its steamships and hotels. This
is an increase of between five and six
millions of dollars over the earnings
of 1030, when the revenue of the com-
pany exceeded that of the Dominion
of Canada.

CABBAGE DISEASES.
Susceptibility to Rot and infection Due
to Soil Conditions.
In a bulletin on "Cabbage Experi•
meats and Culture issued by the
Maryland agricultural experiment sta.
Oen it is asserted that the suscepti-
bility to rot and disease of cabbage
growing on very rich, highly culti-
vated land seemed to be due more to
something unsuitable in the soil rather
than to the tlireet attacks of bacteria
or fungi. During very rainy weather
In the heat of summer young and ap-
parently vigorous cabbage plants will
wilt and die. If the weather is mor•
erately dry and the soil loose aid well
cultivated, cabbage will grow vigor-
ously and seemingly resist , disease
even If the soil Is known to be Infect-
ed with germs. It was noticed that a
patch of cabbage planted on a piece
of land that lind been used to grow
celery for several yenrs grew very
well until heavy rants began to fall In
raron OP 0IILTiVATED OAn'BACIIL'..
August. In the bright sunshine which
followed the plants wilted and died.
The crop was a failure except a por-
tion of the lower corner, which was
on a poor clay knob, and there a few
good heads matured.
Due consideration was given to the
fart of poor drainage and also .to ex-
cessive anionnts of water about the
roots, to which might be attributed
much of the failure. Still It seemed a
plansible conjecture that there might
be extraordinary amounts of soluble
salts in the soil and that they would
have a poisonous effect on the roots,
A piece of rather stiff clay land, one-
eighth of an acre In size, that bad
been =mired and planted to truck
crops for many years and upon which
cabbage bad rotted badly the preeed-
lug year was again treated with ten
tons per acre of rotted manure. This
was plowed down and the land was
prepared for the crop.
1'luts were marked off and treated
as follows:
Plot 1 -Complete fertilizer, 1,000 pounds
per acre.
Plot 2 -Check, no fertilizer.
Plot 3 -Lime, sixty bushels per acre.
Plot 4 -Sulphate of potash, 300 pounds
per acre.
Plot 5 -Muriate of potash, 300 pounds
per acre.
It had been noticed In some other
work under similar conditions that
muriate of potash seemed to have the
effect of promoting the vigor of the
plants. Fifteen varieties of cabbage
were planted across the plots, nine
varieties of french -and six of Amer-
ican origin. The plants were set June
23. They started off nicely and grew
well until the Ora week of August, at
which time there°were incessant rains,
followed by bright sunshine. •
All the plants on all the plots wilted
down and only a few recovered. Most
of those wilted died In a short time
with black rot. A few lingered on,
but did not make satisfactory heads.

HINTS' FOR BEEKEEPERS.
If you expect to get a crop of
Honey take good care of your
bees.
Don't imagine that you know
it all and cannot learn anything
by reading a bee journal,
In the production of ettracted
honey give seven frames in the
eight frame super and nine
frames in the ten frame.
Don't put on. ;your supers be-
i' bees n•
be-
fore t 1L� i _s arc readyPorthetn
r
OS you gain nothing by doing so,
,
but only render it Larder for the
bees to keep up 1be necessary
dent.
The peeessity of having a neat
and attractive label with the
name and address of the pro-
ducer 00 every package of honey
put upon ttie market Is Weil un-
derstood by the enterprising bee-
keeper.
The long,top bar Is better for
use in old homemade hives, as
the staple spaced frames require
accurate Inside dimensions.
1''ruit vulture ettnnot be Carried
on successfully without bees to
effect fertilisation through carry-
ing pollen front One blossom to
another.
The disposition of an unprofit-
able Colony to store honey may
be materially Increased by giving
them several combs of hatching
brood from an tnduatrious hive.

A new day has dawned for eye -sight siifferers, This specialist has perfected a system so perfect that it has'
brought the correcting of imperfect sight to an exact science.
Ni long, tedious sitting in the optician's chair to have innumerable pairs of glasses tried to your eyes, but a
new and wouderfnl, quick and easy method by which the inside of the eyeball is illuminated and nature gives tip
the secret of poor vision. Children's eyes can be accurately examined by this method without asking questions.
Cross'eyes can in many cases be straightened by wearing glasses fitted by this system.
All etaminations will be made by Professor Graham Pro of Charge, those requiring glasses paying for glasses
only. I want this message to he an invitation to eyesight sufferers, to all who require a change in their glasses, to
all tvho wish to know if the glasses they are wearing are exactly right, to all headache sufferers and all children
afflicted with cross eyes.
This is an opportunity perhaps of alifetime to many who are unable to visit these Specialists in their city.of-
2ices, and I am fully convinced that those who take advantage of this visit of Professor Graham, will be fully repaid
in satisfaction and results. The time set for free examinations each day and evening is as follows -..0. to 12, 2 l to 0,
8 and 0, the evening being fully as good as the daytime as all work is done by artificial light. Our optician will cora-
piste his course of instruction In the new system while Professor Graham is with as.
Please bear in mind the fact that this spacial gagement is only for two weeks, Our message to the people
is thio -COMM --a11 who need help for your eyes. 'We are now booking appointments.
Yours to sero,°,
F. J. HIND, Druggis and Optician, INGHAM
