TWO YEARS SUIIiiIINGITHNSHIP OF TURNIMIII Bro °ght on by a Severe Strain— How a Cure was Found. Mr. Joseph Stephens, Rosemount, Ont„ is one of the great host who con- tinually sound the praises of Dr. Wil- liams' Pink Pills, and he has much reason to do so as they brought him from suffering to health, after he had spent much money and two years of tune experimenting with other treat- ments. Mr. Stephens tells his exper- ience as follows: "In the month of January, 19(S, while working in a log- ging camp at Creston, B. C., I got my back badly injured. I suffered a great deal of pain and was almost helpless. I tried plasters, thinking they would help me, but they were of no use. I took several medicines, equally without benefit. Then I was advised to try electrical treatment but without per- manent relief, and it began to look as though 1 was going to be permanently crippled. Then I was advised to under- go treatment with a specialist at Spok- ane, Wash. After examining me he said I was in a very bad shape and that the trouble w,.s likely to result in ,Bright's disease. However, he -told me that he felt sure 11e could co tl cure me. At a heavy expense I was under his treat- inent for three months, but did not get the least benefit. I was almost in des- pair; work was plentiful end wages good, but I could not work, as I was in this condition for about two years, when my brother, who was with me all the time, came across one of Dr. Wil- liams' phamphlets and read of the great work Dr. Williams' Pink Pills were doing. He urged me to try them, but I thought it would be useless to spend more money after all the other treatment had failed. He insisted, however, and got a dozen boxes of the Pills and I began to take them. Before I had used a half dozen boxes I felt relief, and I continued taking the Pills until every vestige of the pain was gone, and I could raise my hands above my head and then bend until I could touch my toes with my fingers, some- thing I had not been able to do for over two years. My cure was a great sur- prise to my comrades, and you may be sure I told them what brought it about. I am now as well and strong as any man in the country and I owe it all to Dr. Williams' Pink Pills." Sold by all medicine dealers or by mail at 50 cents a box or six boxes for $2.50 from the Dr. Williams' Medicine Co., Brockville, Ont. A flagrant piece of attempted nepo- tism on the part of supporters of the Whitney Government is reported from Cobourg. Mr. I. 0. Procter, Sheriff of the united counties of Northumberland and Durham, has resigned from a posi- tion which he has held from 1880. Three thousand and fifty dollars in fines were imposed in South Porcupine and Cochrane last week as a result of visits paid to these points by Provin- cial License Inspector George E. Morri- son of Toronto. Ten convictions for illegal liquor -selling were recorded at South Porcupine and at Cochrane Fri- day, when each defendant was assessed $100. A British Board of Trade return shows that in the ten years ending Dec. 31, 1911, the lives of only nine passeng- ers on Atlantic steamers carrying the British flag were lost, out of 6,053,392 carried. An ocean passenger steam- ship is one of the safest places in the world. in spite of the Titanic disaster. And it will be even safer in the future because of that disaster. Hon. George E. Foster thinks Cana- dian manufacturers should do more to build up a foreign trade. The nearest foreign ma'ket for Canadian manufac- turers is close to their factory doors, but they very evidently prefer to hold to the Canadian market, where they have nothing to fear from competition, and Hon. Geo. E. Foster concurred in that preference a few months ago. If he was sincere then, what is he now?— Saskatoon Phoenix. During the month of April, according to official returns furnished to the Fi- nance Department. the chartered banks of Canada increased their liabilities by $22,440,712, and their assets by $24,- 566,935. The reserves of the banks on April 3') totalled $100,638,290, an in- crease of $1,403,709. Notes in circula- tion are returned at $95,145,371, a de- crease of $673,033. The average amount of Dominion notes in circulation, how- ever, show an increase of $994,047, as compared with the figures for the pre- vious month. Why net send us the underpaid Bri- tish farm laborers, under conditions which will see that their inexperience I with our methods and their marvellous indisposition to learn do not too severe- ly handicap their usefulness. We can- not expect to get agricultural experts from a class who have been working for fifty cents a day; but it ought to be possible to Hain men willing to work, and inured to toil on the land, to be ex- ceedingly useful to our farmers who are chronically short of "help." This would increase the output in Canada, enable the Canadian farmer to make more money, and getrid of much drudg- ery, and, in the most effective fashion, raise the wages in England by relaxing the pressure of competition for farm jobs. - Montreal Star. a THINNESS is often a sign of poor health.

So widely do the requirments of differ- ent soils vary in their fertilizer require- ments that farmers must mix their own fertilizers if we would get thebest and most profitable results from their use. And yet there is no other departement of farm work that we are so inclined to leave to the other fellow as the mix- ing of our fertilizers. We usually tell the fertilizer agent what crop we intend to use the fertilizer on and allow him to select the fertilizer and set the price. Did we experiment with the needs of our soils for various crops we would be in aposition to buy the pure chemical fer- tilizers and ourselves mix them to good advantage. We would save money and buy only the fertilizer actually needed by the crop and we would save money in the mixing. The increased profit would be more than enough to repay us for studying the fertilizer problem well enough to mix fertilizers intelligently at home.—Farm and Dairy, LIVE STOOK MARKETS. Toronto, May 20—Union Stock Yards —Receipts, 186 cars, with 3,476 head of cattle, 1,359 hogs, 615 sheep and lambs, and 119 calves. Trade was good and active at this market to -day, and but for there being a heavy run of cattle offering, it is probable prices would have gone a notch or two higher. As it was they held steady to firm at last week's quo- tations, the tendency, if anything, be- ing firmer. Maybee and Wilson topped the market with a couple of loads of the best fed farmers' cattle seen in the market this season, steers weighing 1,300 to 1,350 lbs., and selling at $8 for export. Choice butcher loads sold firm at $7 to $7.50, and medium mixed butcher at 36.40 to $6.75. Sheep and lambs steady but inclined a little easier. Hogs, steady to firm, at $8.90 to $9, fed and watered.
