T1I ; S IlMIM '3 BIS, RAY 23, 1912 3 Dirty Dollar it Passing. The day of tile dirty dollar is passing. The new bank act will be brought down almost immediately upon the re -assem- bling of Parliament, and in it there will be a provision under which it will be the duty of the banks not to re -issue soiled or faded notes, The banks have already a standing request from the de- partment of finance to return for ex- change all soiled Dominion notes which come into their possession. The old "shin -plaster" or 25 -cent note is likely to disappear in a short time, as it is understood the Minister of Finance does not favor it. The new Dominion five -dollar notes, the first of that de- nomination issued by the Government of Canada, will soon be ready for issue by the department of finance to the public. Last year, on account of the heavy demands upon the note circula- tion of the Dominion it was found nec- essary to issue four -dollar bills. This note, however, has never been pop- ular, and is likely to be confused with notes of the other denominations. The Minister of Finance decided to make an issue of five -dollar Govern- ment bills, and the objectionable fours will thus be withdrawn from cireula tion.

The Division of Entomology of the Experimental Farms Branch of the Dominion Department of Agriculture, Ottawa, has recently issued a bulletin by Dr. C. Gordon Hewitt, Dominion Entomologist, on "The Control of In- sect pests in Canada." An account is given of the history of the war against insect pests in Canada and of the man- ner in which insect pests have invaded the country as it has been gradually opened up and cultivated. The man- ner in which the Dominion and Provin- cial governments are endeavouring by 13gislation and other means to prevent the introduction of insect pests into Canada and the increase and spread of those pests already here is described. An interesting summary of the various lines of work undertaken and carried on by the Division of Entomology at Ottawa is given and the general public will no doubt be surprised at the many problems which come within the scope of the entomologists who are called up- on to deal with insects in their relations to all the varied activities of man; in- sects affecting farm crops, fruit grow- ing, forest and shade trees; insects at- tacking man's possessions and infest- ing houses, attacking domestic animals and finally affecting the health of man. All insects, however, are not injurious and the study of parasitic and other enemies which may be of assistance in obtaining control of insect pests. Cop- ies of this publication, Bulletin No. 9 (Second Series) Experimental Farms, may be obtained from the Publications Branch, Department of Agriculture, Ottawa. A Simple Method. If this item meets the eyes of any person, who may drink impure water, here is a simple method of sterilizing drinking water. It entails little or no cost, nothing but the simplest apparat- us, does away with necessity of boiling the water, and gives water which is free of all harmful bacteria. Take a teaspoonful of pure chloride of lime, smoothing off the surface of the spoon with some flat object, so that too much of the chemical is not used. Dissolve this in a teacupful of water, and add to this three more cupfuls of water. A teaspoonful of the resultant solution added to a two -gallon pail of water, and allowed to stand for ten minutes, will give a proportion of 4 to 5 parts of free chlorine to a million parts of water, sufficient to purify the latter from every trace of harmful bacteria. There is no taste or odor to this sterilized water, and the free chlorine, in itself harm- less, soon disappears. This method has been perfected and thoroughly tested with very impure water by Doctors Nesmith and Graham of the Provincial Laboratory. Pneumonia from a Cold PNEUMONIA is second only to consumption in the. number of deaths which it causes, and like con- sumption always has ;ts beginning with a cold. Cold in the head, fever and chills, a cough which gradually becomes dry and more painful in the chest, rapid, difficult breathing, feelings of ex- haustion and depression ---these are syrntoins of pneumonia. You can prevent and cure pneu- monia by the use of Dr. Chase's Syrup of Linseed and Turpentine, the greatest of all treatments for the throat and lungs. The only safe way is to regard every cold as serious. By frequent doses of Dr. Chase's Syrup of Lin- seed and Turpentine you can quickly break up the cold and guard against Iatt rerou' de veti-pments. 25 cents t nettle. at all tl,•a't'rs or 1sdmanson, ;;,.:.,s ee ( _..

As a means of getting the fer- tility just where you want it anti without loss this appears to show, good practice. Wo tried this method with a carload of hogs each of the last two winters and are in a position to sum up the advantages and disad- vantages of the practice, writes an Ohio hog grower in the National Stockman. Our idea of the general utility of feeding hogs in this. way may be inferred from the fact that our bogs are being fed this winter in a closed bouse and on a yard In which a few cattle are being fed shock corn. The whole difficulty of feeding lis the open field Iles In the lack of com- fort and cleauliness. Much rainy weather makes the ground so soft that feeding a lot of hogs from a wagon or a portable crib becomes an exceeding- ly slovenly practice. Last season only. a small proportion of the time was the ground sufficiently frozen to permit of The Duroc Jersey breed of hog 1s an animal easily fattened, with large hams and shoulders, of quick growth and one that can be mar- keted at any age. The Jerseys are ono of the best grazing breeds that we have, being strong and active and wide rangers, It is more pro- lific than either the Berkshire or Poland China. The Duroc Jersey boar shown was a prize winner at Chicago. solid footing for hogs. The vicinity of troughs becomes miry unless moved often, which In actual practice is lia- ble to be neglected because requiring considerable extra work. Houses, not being adjacent to straw stacks, are often allowed to run without suffi- cient dry bedding. In fact, last win- ter It was not an unusual condition to find that a foot of clean straw placed in the pens in the morning had been largely soiled before night. This season we have our shoats in a building with earth floor well bedded with straw. The shoats may be shut out while slop Is being placed in the troughs. Corn is fed from the loft. The bed is the dry end of the bouse, and astnaw stack stands outside of the door. The shoats have a well bed- ded yard in which to take exercise after cattle. Pigs raised on wide range till twelve weeks old have developed ro- bust bodies and consequently require less range later. Last spring we do not recall that there was a single fa-. vorable day during the final month of fattening our hogs. They ate corn out of the mud and waded belly deep in mud to get their slop. The writer de- cided that, however fine might be the theory of wintering hogs on the field and however our own methods might be amenable to improvement, a winter of feeding hogs around a straw stack and ie a hog house would prove an agreeable change. The Value of a Dairy Sire. A car load of grade Guernsey cows left Iowa for Kansas a short time since at an average price of $175 pier head. How much do you think their moth- ers could have been bought for, sup- posing they were ordinary native cows? We will be liberal and say $50 apiece. So then it is clear that a registered Guernsey bull added to the commercial value of every one of those cows $125. Of course these are high figures. But they point the way just the same. The farmers of Wisconsin who years ago bought pure bred bulls and so es- tablished herds of grade Jerseys, Hol- steins, Guernseys and in a few in- stances Ayrshires, built a broad, strong foundation for profitable business bee heath them. They have been produc- ing milk and heifers and cows for sale, all made more possible and more profit- able by the pure bred sire, And yet there are farmers right in such communities who will hunt about for a cheap grade bull to breed from with all these facts before his eyes. - Hoard's Dairyman. Testing For Butter Fat. The percentage of butter fat in milk depends almost entirely upon the in- dividuality of the cow. The breed has something to do with it, of course, but not so much as the individuality. Feet! Cuts no figure. It is possible to ill - crease the flow of milk by proper feed- ing, but not the percentage of butter tat. The Babcock feet is the only means by wbich this percentage cal[ be determined, and this is a good thing to use before purchasing dairy stack. • Correct Beef Form. The beef cow is square in shape, full and broad over the back and loins and possesses depth and greet thickness in these regions. The hips are etch with flesh. the legs full and thick, the under line parallel with the straight back. The neck is full and short. the eyes bright. the face short, the bones of fine texture, the skin soft and pliable and the flesh mellow, elastic and rice in quality.

There wouldn't be much matrimony without a maiden effort. Most of us are glad the voice of con- science is so still and small that the neighbors can't overhear it, The average man is eager to gratify his wife's smallest wish. It's the big ones that go by the board, A pessimist is a man who would look for the thorns in a bed of roses. One of the most annoying things in the world is to be prepared for an emergency that doesn't turn up. The man who burns the midnight oil never seems to make as much money as the man who sells it. Some people are too narrow-minded to take a broad hint. It doesn't require an intimate know- ledge of politics to realize that the healer cannot eure himself. There are few things with greater drawbacks than a promise with a string 'tied to it. DR. A. W. CHASE'S CATARRH POWDER 5C. is sent direct to the diseased parts by the Improved Blower.
