CAUSES MUCH DISEASE
Advice About Stomach Troubles
And Row To Relieve Them.
Do not neglect indigestion which
may lead to all sorts of ills and com-
plications. An eminent physician
once said that ninety-five per cent. of
all the ills of the human body have
their origin in a disordered stomach.
Our cxper!ence with Rexall Dyspep-
si+Tablets leads us to believe them to
b i among the most dependable
remedies kno vn for the relief of in-
digestion and chronic dyspepsia. Their
ingredients are soo hing and healing
to the inflamed membrances of the
stomacb. They are rich in pepsin,
one of the greatest digestive aids
known to medicine. The relief they
afford is very prompt. Their use with
persistency and regularity for a short
time tends to bring about a cessation
of pains caused by saomach dis-
orders.
Rexall ;Dyspepsia Tablets help to
insure healthy appetite, to aid diges-
tion, and thus promote nutrition. As
evidenc@ of our sincere faith in Rexall
Dyspepsia Tablets, we ask you to try
them at our risk. If they do not
give you entire satisfaction, we will
return you the money you paid us for
then, without question or formality.
Th. y come in three sizes, prices 25c,
5)s and $1 00. Remember, you can
obtain them only at our store—The

A big fat porcupine, from parts un-
known, strayed into Captain D ck
Emmerton's barnyard, at Pine RI er,
one day last week. Mee the animal
was first seen he was mistaken for a
coon, and the Captain's hound Was lit
loose at it. When the hound return-
ed from the charge he was howling,
suffering, animated pin -cushion, ar d
two men sat over him for two hoots
or more removing the quills. The
porcupine was afterwards killed wit h
a stick, and was found to be of extra-
ordinary size.
October Lightning.
During the electric storm on Sun-
day morning, October 22, about fit e
o'clock, the barn belonging to Mr.
Allan McAuley, of the 5th Concession,
Huron township, about three from
Ripley, was struck by lightning and
burned to the ground. The etockin
the barn, two horses, a calf and some
pigs, was removed in time but there
was about forty tons of hay and all
the season's grain burned. The new
separator belonging to John Bell was
put in barn on Saturday afternoon for
threshing on Monday and it was com-
pletely destroyed with the contents of
the barn, The cutting hos was taken
out of danger. Mr. Bell lost a new
separator just a year ago in the same
manner and with this new misfortune
he is a very heavy loser also.

014 Cuatom of Allowing Stock to
Rustle it; ylying,
Every newcomer is on the lookout
for cheap fodder for what horses and
oxen or other livestock he has about
his, pisco. The cld-time custom of
allowing the stock to rustle is dying
a natural death. The better the feed
the better the condition of the ani-
mals, and consequently the greater
their Value ,and the more satisfaction
in handling them. Comfort and good
feed are essentials to successful stock -
raising, and the sooner the man gets
the habit o! looking after his stook
properly t he earlier will ho, find
profit and pleasure in stock -raising.
Hay supply does not cost much in
new districts. The homesteier for
some years has abundance on his own
land, He also can get it on adjoining
areas at a nominal cost. On the
man's ability to select, largely de-
pends the real value of the fodder lee
provides. Too many are satisfied
with the coarse, wiry grass, common
to sloughs 1n some parts. There are,
however, few seasons that good grass
does not grow to provide a fair sup-
ply for all settlers of the newer dis-
tricts.
But the practice o! years gone by
has been to neglect the growing of
cultivated grasses too long. Too many
farmers prefer to feed the coarse
sedge of the sloughs to their stack
and impoverish the land by continuous
cropping of grains. The experience
of pioneers has been that it pays to
seed down to timothy, or rye grass,
or clovers,
Of recent years, 'alfalfa has come
into prominence. In short, every
settler should afteroa very few years
grow good grass or clover fodder on
his own place. it will pay indirectly,
if not directly.
A UNIQUE SCARECROW
Hawks and crows so destructive in
the Olken yard and corn fields, are
nb longer troublesome on the farm of
Mr. W. J. Telford of Peterboro coun-
try. A scarecrow with movable arms
devised by Mr. Telford has proved
moat effectual. in frightening away
these pests. The material used con -
sits of two pieces of 2 x 4 scantling
feet long; a six Inch plank, three
feet long; a six inch- plang, three
feet long; two cross pieces 18 inches
long; a broom handle, and two pieces
of light wood 2% feet long, to which
are attached shingles which act in
the same manner as the fans of a
windmill and keep the arms rotating.
An old suit of clothes and a hat make
the figure look very life -like.
'Why Cows Lose Their Calves
Abortion is caused by kicks, blows,
slips, falls, compression, over-exer-
tion. frights, foul odors, food of poor
quality or containing ergot, exposure
to cold, etc. There are many acci-
dents that may cause abortion, and it
is usually not known that an accident
has occurred.
There is a form of infection abor-
tion caused by a specific germ, but
it is not probable that this is the
form that this cow suffered from. If
it is, other cows in the herd will also
abort, and it will be a very serious
matter and entail a long course of
treatment. As it is very probable
that this was a case of accidental
abortion, it will be reasonably safe to
breed her again.
GREATER KNOWLEDGE NEEDED
Horse Breeders Need Discrimination
We need to exercise common sense
steadily in the breeding and handling
of horses. We uecd here to know the
best methods of feeding and care. The
fact that an animal is imported may
not mean very much, if anything, in
its favor. Many of those imported are
of but little account. They were
bought because they did not cost
much. It appears that the time has
passed when the mere fact of im-
portation should sell a horse or com-
mend him to patronage. Defects are
quite as likely to be transmitted as
good qualities, and breeders must
learn to discriminate closely if they
would breed successfully any class
of horses.
Striped Cueumber Beetle and the
True Squash Bug
Tho first of these, a biting insect,
and the second, a sucking insect, at-
tack melons, cucumbers and squashes;
and they are often confounded, both
being called "squash -bugs." This is
unfortunate, because they call for
radically different treatment: -
We would suggest planting an ex-
cess of seed; for the first named in-
sect, dusting plants With one pound
of Paris green mixed with 50 pounds
of lime or cheap flour. The beetle
can be to a certain extent driven
away by air -slaked lime alone, dusting
it liberally ole or about the plants in
each hill.
For the trite squash -bug we would
recommend hand-piciting of bugs in
the early morning, also hand-picking
of the yellow eggs. Destroy all vines
after harvesting crop. Plants can be
kept covered with light frames of
cheese -Cloth while small.
Salting Cows.
it hat been noted that an experi-
ment was carried on at the Wisconsin
station as to the effects of salt and
lack of Salt on cows. Salt was kept
away from some cows for long time
—a number of months --- and a con-
dition of low vitality ensued which,
when continued at sone length, re-
sulted in a general breakdown. When
salt Was again supplied them, they
recovered at once. It was observed
that the time of breaking down Came
about the time of calving, and the
best cows Showed this tendency most.
And so these tants show the value of
regular salting of milk cotes, which
should not be niglected.

Eminently Suitable for English Soil
The Journal of the Royal Agricul-
tural Society of England for 1010 eon-.
tains the final report of an interesting
experiment conducted at the Woburn
Experiment Station in the testing of
varieties of lucerne, grown from seed
of French (Provence), American and
Canadian origins.
The test was begun in 1005, and in
1910, the fifth and final year, the re-
port says "the plots were •all dug up
in preparation for a more extended
experiment with lueerno, the Provence
and .American varieties having, to all
purpose, come to an end, though the
Canadian variety would have con-
tinued to yield a, crop for some years
more:" In every year, the yield of
the Canadian variety was markedly
higher than that of either of the
others, the excess over its nearest

competitor, the American, being 5
tons 10 cwt. in 1909, and 7. tons 6
cwt. in 1910.
These varieties from the Argentine
were also tested in 1908 and 1909
but failed completely, being attacked
by a fungus from which the earlier-
cown plots were free The luxuriant
growth of the Canadian sort kept
down the weeds effectively, while the
Iighter yield on the other plots re-
sulted in their, being overrun with
them. The name of the Canadian
seed originally used in this experi-
ment is not known, but the test is
being renewed this, year with Cana-
dian seed of known origin, in com-
parison with varieties obtained from
Turkestan, Provence and other coun-
tries.
UNEXCELLED LAND RENOVATOR
Sweet Clover is Excellent
As it soil renovator sweet clover is
fully equal if not superior to any of
the other legumes. Especially is this
true when the tops as well as the
stubble and roots aro plowed under
as green manure. In an Illinois in-
vestigation it was found that an acre
of thrifty sweet clover contained in
the tops, stubble and roots, 228 pounds
of nitrogen, which is more than double
the amount found by the Delaware
station in an acre of alfalfa or red
clover. Ox account of its rank growth,
sweet clover adds a great amount of
humus, the Illinois station finding
that a good acre of sweet stover
yielded 6.4 tons of dry matter, which
would furnish as much humus form-
ing 'material as would twenty-five
tons of farm manure. And sweet
clover will grow anywhere.
Intelligente Collie.
Sorely one of tho hardest tests of
a sheep dog is to be put in charge of
a pig. That is what happened to
Rasp, a famous Midlothian collie.
The owner found an his return home
one day that the pig had escaped,
and sent the dog to fetch it. "So off
went Rasp in quest of what proved
one of the most stubborn of the mem-
bers 9f the bucolic family she ever
encountered. Having been absent
about twenty-five minutes, she at last
appeared. with a few sheep in front
of her. But in the center of the sheep
was the pig;'•experience having taught
her that the little rebel could not
be driven alone."
DAIRYMEN S1if'ULD HAVE
DEFINITE ATM.
Herds, as a whole, should be culled
to a . definite standard of excellen e.
The standard trust vary according to
such conditions as market prices of
animals and products, availability of
better stock, etc.; but; generally
speaking, a standard of 0,000 pounds
of milk and 300 pounds fat per year
for Jerseys and Guernseys, 9,000
pounds of milk, and 300 pounds fat
for Holsteins, should be the aim of
dairymen at first. When these re-
cords are reached, the standard may
bo raised,

A big fat porcupine, from parts un-
known, strayed into Captain D ck
Emmerton's barnyard, at Pine RI er,
one day last week. Mee the animal
was first seen he was mistaken for a
coon, and the Captain's hound Was lit
loose at it. When the hound return-
ed from the charge he was howling,
suffering, animated pin -cushion, ar d
two men sat over him for two hoots
or more removing the quills. The
porcupine was afterwards killed wit h
a stick, and was found to be of extra-
ordinary size.
October Lightning.
During the electric storm on Sun-
day morning, October 22, about fit e
o'clock, the barn belonging to Mr.
Allan McAuley, of the 5th Concession,
Huron township, about three from
Ripley, was struck by lightning and
burned to the ground. The etockin
the barn, two horses, a calf and some
pigs, was removed in time but there
was about forty tons of hay and all
the season's grain burned. The new
separator belonging to John Bell was
put in barn on Saturday afternoon for
threshing on Monday and it was com-
pletely destroyed with the contents of
the barn, The cutting hos was taken
out of danger. Mr. Bell lost a new
separator just a year ago in the same
manner and with this new misfortune
he is a very heavy loser also.

014 Cuatom of Allowing Stock to
Rustle it; ylying,
Every newcomer is on the lookout
for cheap fodder for what horses and
oxen or other livestock he has about
his, pisco. The cld-time custom of
allowing the stock to rustle is dying
a natural death. The better the feed
the better the condition of the ani-
mals, and consequently the greater
their Value ,and the more satisfaction
in handling them. Comfort and good
feed are essentials to successful stock -
raising, and the sooner the man gets
the habit o! looking after his stook
properly t he earlier will ho, find
profit and pleasure in stock -raising.
Hay supply does not cost much in
new districts. The homesteier for
some years has abundance on his own
land, He also can get it on adjoining
areas at a nominal cost. On the
man's ability to select, largely de-
pends the real value of the fodder lee
provides. Too many are satisfied
with the coarse, wiry grass, common
to sloughs 1n some parts. There are,
however, few seasons that good grass
does not grow to provide a fair sup-
ply for all settlers of the newer dis-
tricts.
But the practice o! years gone by
has been to neglect the growing of
cultivated grasses too long. Too many
farmers prefer to feed the coarse
sedge of the sloughs to their stack
and impoverish the land by continuous
cropping of grains. The experience
of pioneers has been that it pays to
seed down to timothy, or rye grass,
or clovers,
Of recent years, 'alfalfa has come
into prominence. In short, every
settler should afteroa very few years
grow good grass or clover fodder on
his own place. it will pay indirectly,
if not directly.
A UNIQUE SCARECROW
Hawks and crows so destructive in
the Olken yard and corn fields, are
nb longer troublesome on the farm of
Mr. W. J. Telford of Peterboro coun-
try. A scarecrow with movable arms
devised by Mr. Telford has proved
moat effectual. in frightening away
these pests. The material used con -
sits of two pieces of 2 x 4 scantling
feet long; a six Inch plank, three
feet long; a six inch- plang, three
feet long; two cross pieces 18 inches
long; a broom handle, and two pieces
of light wood 2% feet long, to which
are attached shingles which act in
the same manner as the fans of a
windmill and keep the arms rotating.
An old suit of clothes and a hat make
the figure look very life -like.
'Why Cows Lose Their Calves
Abortion is caused by kicks, blows,
slips, falls, compression, over-exer-
tion. frights, foul odors, food of poor
quality or containing ergot, exposure
to cold, etc. There are many acci-
dents that may cause abortion, and it
is usually not known that an accident
has occurred.
There is a form of infection abor-
tion caused by a specific germ, but
it is not probable that this is the
form that this cow suffered from. If
it is, other cows in the herd will also
abort, and it will be a very serious
matter and entail a long course of
treatment. As it is very probable
that this was a case of accidental
abortion, it will be reasonably safe to
breed her again.
GREATER KNOWLEDGE NEEDED
Horse Breeders Need Discrimination
We need to exercise common sense
steadily in the breeding and handling
of horses. We uecd here to know the
best methods of feeding and care. The
fact that an animal is imported may
not mean very much, if anything, in
its favor. Many of those imported are
of but little account. They were
bought because they did not cost
much. It appears that the time has
passed when the mere fact of im-
portation should sell a horse or com-
mend him to patronage. Defects are
quite as likely to be transmitted as
good qualities, and breeders must
learn to discriminate closely if they
would breed successfully any class
of horses.
Striped Cueumber Beetle and the
True Squash Bug
Tho first of these, a biting insect,
and the second, a sucking insect, at-
tack melons, cucumbers and squashes;
and they are often confounded, both
being called "squash -bugs." This is
unfortunate, because they call for
radically different treatment: -
We would suggest planting an ex-
cess of seed; for the first named in-
sect, dusting plants With one pound
of Paris green mixed with 50 pounds
of lime or cheap flour. The beetle
can be to a certain extent driven
away by air -slaked lime alone, dusting
it liberally ole or about the plants in
each hill.
For the trite squash -bug we would
recommend hand-piciting of bugs in
the early morning, also hand-picking
of the yellow eggs. Destroy all vines
after harvesting crop. Plants can be
kept covered with light frames of
cheese -Cloth while small.
Salting Cows.
it hat been noted that an experi-
ment was carried on at the Wisconsin
station as to the effects of salt and
lack of Salt on cows. Salt was kept
away from some cows for long time
—a number of months --- and a con-
dition of low vitality ensued which,
when continued at sone length, re-
sulted in a general breakdown. When
salt Was again supplied them, they
recovered at once. It was observed
that the time of breaking down Came
about the time of calving, and the
best cows Showed this tendency most.
And so these tants show the value of
regular salting of milk cotes, which
should not be niglected.

Eminently Suitable for English Soil
The Journal of the Royal Agricul-
tural Society of England for 1010 eon-.
tains the final report of an interesting
experiment conducted at the Woburn
Experiment Station in the testing of
varieties of lucerne, grown from seed
of French (Provence), American and
Canadian origins.
The test was begun in 1005, and in
1910, the fifth and final year, the re-
port says "the plots were •all dug up
in preparation for a more extended
experiment with lueerno, the Provence
and .American varieties having, to all
purpose, come to an end, though the
Canadian variety would have con-
tinued to yield a, crop for some years
more:" In every year, the yield of
the Canadian variety was markedly
higher than that of either of the
others, the excess over its nearest

competitor, the American, being 5
tons 10 cwt. in 1909, and 7. tons 6
cwt. in 1910.
These varieties from the Argentine
were also tested in 1908 and 1909
but failed completely, being attacked
by a fungus from which the earlier-
cown plots were free The luxuriant
growth of the Canadian sort kept
down the weeds effectively, while the
Iighter yield on the other plots re-
sulted in their, being overrun with
them. The name of the Canadian
seed originally used in this experi-
ment is not known, but the test is
being renewed this, year with Cana-
dian seed of known origin, in com-
parison with varieties obtained from
Turkestan, Provence and other coun-
tries.
UNEXCELLED LAND RENOVATOR
Sweet Clover is Excellent
As it soil renovator sweet clover is
fully equal if not superior to any of
the other legumes. Especially is this
true when the tops as well as the
stubble and roots aro plowed under
as green manure. In an Illinois in-
vestigation it was found that an acre
of thrifty sweet clover contained in
the tops, stubble and roots, 228 pounds
of nitrogen, which is more than double
the amount found by the Delaware
station in an acre of alfalfa or red
clover. Ox account of its rank growth,
sweet clover adds a great amount of
humus, the Illinois station finding
that a good acre of sweet stover
yielded 6.4 tons of dry matter, which
would furnish as much humus form-
ing 'material as would twenty-five
tons of farm manure. And sweet
clover will grow anywhere.
Intelligente Collie.
Sorely one of tho hardest tests of
a sheep dog is to be put in charge of
a pig. That is what happened to
Rasp, a famous Midlothian collie.
The owner found an his return home
one day that the pig had escaped,
and sent the dog to fetch it. "So off
went Rasp in quest of what proved
one of the most stubborn of the mem-
bers 9f the bucolic family she ever
encountered. Having been absent
about twenty-five minutes, she at last
appeared. with a few sheep in front
of her. But in the center of the sheep
was the pig;'•experience having taught
her that the little rebel could not
be driven alone."
DAIRYMEN S1if'ULD HAVE
DEFINITE ATM.
Herds, as a whole, should be culled
to a . definite standard of excellen e.
The standard trust vary according to
such conditions as market prices of
animals and products, availability of
better stock, etc.; but; generally
speaking, a standard of 0,000 pounds
of milk and 300 pounds fat per year
for Jerseys and Guernseys, 9,000
pounds of milk, and 300 pounds fat
for Holsteins, should be the aim of
dairymen at first. When these re-
cords are reached, the standard may
bo raised,
'What a Cow Produces
A cow must produce about 4,000
lbs. of milk and 160 lbs. of butter fat
to pay for leer feed and labor; this
is the dead lino. 5,000 lbs. of mills,
$10 profit: 8,000 lbs, of milk, $40 pro-
fit four times as much. Ten cows
averaging 8,000 lbs, of milk are as
profitable as 40 cows producing 5,000
Iba. The cost of keep increases but
$35 a cow, from 2,000 to 10,000 lbs.

creases $115, over three rimae as
