"My wife was greatly distressed for three years with chronic Eczema on the hands, and the disease was so severe that it almost prevented her from using her hands.° The doctor gave her several ointments to use, but none of them dtd -any good. He also advisedher y to wear rubber gloves and she wore out three pairs without getting any benefit. As a last resort, I persuaded her to try "fruit-a-tives", and the effect was marvellous. Not only did "Fruit-a- tives" entirely cure the Eczema. but the Asthma, which she suffered from, was also completely cured. We both attribute our present goal .health to"Fruit-a-tives". N. JOtJBERT. "Fruit-a-tives" will always cure Eczema or Salt Rheum because "Fruit- a-tives" purifies the blood, corrects the Indigestion and Constipation, and tones up the Nervous System. "ruit-a-tives" is the only methane in the world made of fruit juices and 'valuable tonics, and is the greatest of all blood -purifying remedies. sec. a box -6 for $2.5o --or trial size, 25c..

Corsageboquets of artificial flowers come in vogue every winter, and while nothing equals nature in real charm, these blossoms are very beautiful; and have the advantage of permanence. They are, ho\ever, expensive, being made up justra.s.a florist would arrange the natural flowers, and tied with har- monizing ribbon. Ribbon flowers arc also used for the corsage, to pin on the muff, and for hair ornaments, as well as in millinery. The little evening caps of lace, net or beaded and tinsel fabrics are often decorated with slender Wreaths of tiny ribbon flowers. BOX LUMBER IN CANADA -1910. The reported consumption of lumber for boxes and shooks in Canada during 1910 was over one hundred and fifty- eight million feet, valued at two mill- ion two hundred and `seventy-three thousand dollars. These statistics have been compiled by the Forestry Branch of the Department of the Interior from repots received from one hun fired and twb box factories, over one-half of which are in Quebec. Seventy million feet of lumber or forty-five per,centof the total was used in Quebec. Ontario used sixty million feet or thirty-eight per cent of the total and the remainder was used in the provinces of New Bruns- wick, British Columbia, Manitoba and Nova Scotia. Pine, the chief; species used in Ontario formed forty-five per cent of the total .box lumber and cost only $13.93 per . thousand. This com- paratively low price for; pine, indicates that with this more than with any other species', mill waste and cull lum- ber is being used in the manufacture of boxes. - Spruce in 1910 was used in ev- ery province •in which boxes were made and formed forty-one per cent of the total. The cost was $13.83 per thous- and or twenty-eight cents more than the average mill run price, so that man- ufacturers using spruce dematid the best quality. The remaining fourteen per cent of the total was comprisedof fourteen other woods, of which hem - leek, basswood and balsam were the chief. The most expensive box -wood used was a million and a half feet of Douglas fir at $23.00 per thousand in British Columbia. Balsam fir used in the three eastern provinces was the cheapest box -wood reported in 1910 at $8.94 per thousand. It is a wood light color, tasteless, fairly strong and its use in the manufacture of boxes should be encouraged. THE HEALTHIEST, OF EXERCISES. At some fashionable weddings the coats ,of arms of the two families are on the cake, or sometimes the inter- laced initials of the bride's Christian and the bridegroom's Christian and surnames. Walking is splendid winter exercise, and one should avail herself of every opportunity to get out of doors, even though the weather should be disagree- able; but proper clothing should be worn, no matter what the weather. It is folly to allow one's self to get very b cold; the feetkept should a warm and dry, and warm undergarments worn; long sleeves and•comfortable waists of I sensible materials; with the neck cov- ered; the hands should be kept warm, j and the wrists protected, and if suit- able top garments are worn, with thick- soled shoes, even rains or snow, or blizzard will not be objectionable within reason. There is nothingas h so finehealth; e , the healthy woman or girl will not need the aid of the beauty doctor, and with- out health of body and mind there is no beauty worth striving for., The foundation of all remedies for complex- ion ills is cleanliness, internal analex- ternal. Cold feet and limbs are more often than not caused by indigestion, being due neither to the weakness of the heart or feebleness of circulation, but to the contracting of the small arteries preventing the blood from entering the parts. Chronic cold feet call for atten- tion, as it is a symptom of a diseased Condition somewhere. Perhaps the reason why some per- sons fail to take time by the forelock is because their copy of time is bald- headed. Creating a New Dairy Breed. Australia has, says the Australian correspondent of Hoard's Dairyman, already fixed a cross -bred dairy type in the Illawarra, though many good breed- ers argue that the best of them need toning up•occasionally with a dash of Ayrshire., •An attempt ie being made at the Hawesbury College to establish another by blending the Dexter -Kerry with the Jersey. The cows which are being used are the first cross. They are almost black in color, with rich yellow at their .joints. Inside the ears and running down the escutcheon there is the same nankeen color. They pos- sess tortuous milk veins running along the adder, and are generally well shap- ed. Altogether they make a perfect dairy type in appearance--wedge-shape. and free from beefiness. The one re- cently shown at the recent Sydney Royal has a milk return for the twelve f i'bnths of 433 lbs. of butter on a 4 to 5.2 per cent. test. There are five cows at the College, forming this herd, all giving practically the same results. The whole of them have proved to be hardy • and thrifty. All the strong characteristics of the Icerry are retain- ed, added to which are the deep, rich Milking qualities of the Jersey. The proposal • now is to use these cows as 1 the basis of a herd, crossed and re- ' crossed in the hope of fisting it, FEMME OF ISRRISCPS 0000H CURE VIDE AS AMERICAN CONTINENT. Ringing Praise For "No. 10." Prescribed By Him 47 Years Ago. Mr. Miles Maroney, Blissfield, N. B., says: ';k'had occasion to visit the Rev. Gentleman for treatment for °lung trouble, which proved to be of such a serious nature that my friends looked upon my recovery as almost hopeless - but after taking his No. 10 Lung Tonic I ani thankful to say I am in perfect health, and 1 recommend No, 10 to all tlio world." Pars. Malcolm Liv".ngston, Rumford ::ls, Me., says: "I cannot praise your a 13 Lung Tonic too highly, because it cured one of throat trouble of long ta.:i.iiny it is now four years ago and I Love not been troubled since." Mr. I)a:i-el McCarthy, 'Wood's Island, I'., writes: "Thank God! my little a:i1 is now well and able to go to school -your No. 10 saved her life, and I give you a thou.,an.i thanks that she is well again.,' Jno.

A current statement is that a good feeder has a greater di- gestive power than a poor one or that the power of assimllation of the one animal is superior to that of the lath- er, and it bus been assumed that the advantage of the better type of animai lay in its ability to produce more desb or fat from a unit of feed than could the poorer one. It has also been com• mouly taught and seems to be gener ally accepted by animal busbandnien as an established fact that young growing animals not only make ac. tunny larger gains than more mature ones, but likewise more economical gains. The influence of type and age upon the utilization of feed by cattle has been investigated by officials of the department of agriculture and the re- sult published in bureau of animal, industry bulletin No. 128, Two steer calves were selected al the subjects of this investigation, one a pure bred typical beef animal of one of the well known beef breeds, the other a "scrub" of mixed breeding, Exhaustive feeding trials were car- ried out with these animals, including twenty-four experiments with the res- piration calorimeter. - The feeding 'stuffs used were of the same kind for both animals in all the periods, and the different grains used were mixed throughout in the same proportions for each steer. At inter- vals during the time the digestibility of the total ration and the nitrogen balance were determined for each ani- mal. While the results fall to show any material difference between the physi- ological processes of food utilization in the two animals,- they do show clearly an economic superiority of the pure bred over the scrub steer, due, first, to his relatively smaller maintenance re• quirement and. second, to hisabilit, to consume a larger surplus of feed above the • requirement. Both of the facts tend to make the actual produc• tion of human food in the form of meat and fat per unit of total feet consum- ed by the anima lanotably greater by the pure bred animal. In the case of the pure bred animal especially and to a less degree in that of the scrub rations containing less available energy and notably less di- gestibleiprotein than the amounts call- ed for by the current feeding standards for growing cattle produced entirely satisfactory gains In live weight. A distinct influence of age upon the maintenance requirement was observ- ed between the ages of fourteen and thirty-nine mouths, the requirements decreasing relatively as the animals matured. The gain in weight of the scrub as compared with that of the pure bred steer consisted more large- ly of protein, with its accompanying water and to a smaller extent of fat, and therefore represented a materially smaller storage of feed energy. This was also indicated by the results•of the block test. The animals were killed on Jan. 4, 1908. The scrub was rated as "com- mon" and- the pure bred graded .as "prime." The total dressed weight and the weight of the several whole- sale cuts show the considerably higher percentage of dressed weight in the case of the pure bred which is,. charas• teristic of the beef animal and like- wise the predominance• of the loin cut over the less valuable cuts of the fore quarter in the beef animal as compared with the scrub, and the marketable meat of the retail cuts shows that the proportion of more valuable cuts was notably greater in the pure bred. Salting .Butter. Improper salting of butter is a fault which appears frequently. This gen• orally takes the form of uneven salting or the use of impure salt, says Ameri• can Cultivator. Only the best dairy salt should be used, and it requires to be dredged on evenly in a dry state. Uneven salting. combined with too little working, is certain to result in objectionable drops of Water, because water forms where the patches of snit dissolve, and it can be pressed out only by more working. After salt i rt the butter should be worked a "ale and then teit for about an hour for the salt to dissolve before the final making up. About half en ounce of salt to,the pound of butter is generally required, though tastes differ in this re- spect. In any case the salt should be carefully weighed out and evenly tributed, It also should be stored in It dry place. Give Colts Grain. Farmers, don't forget that your draft colts need some grain this fall. When pastures are short a little grain will effect wonders, in a volt's develop - merit. They may be left to oat with the hares, lout it is better to provide u place of' their own when they get the ilInonnt intended for them. 'There is no feel better than oats 211' young stock, but it is also a good idea to give a iittle corn. .1 little feed at this time will do much to make big draft- ers out or them. reeding Sheep t'-ro') r' '•^:- The r1 v , ''1 '...J of any ,,,..1 t ,l.ocially sheep, on the ground has gone by.
