ELLIOTT, Punr.Isura asn Paoriaron. THURSDAY JULY 4. 1912. TAX REFORM. (Woodstock Sentinel -Review.) According to the Toronto papers public sentiment is rapidly developing there in favor of tax reform. The as- sessment department and the court of revision have both endorsed the gener- al principle, and there is a proposal that a referendum be taken at the next municipal election. The idea presum- ably is that if the people should strong- ly endorse the proposed reform the Legislature might be induced to grant special legislation for the accommoda- tion of Toronto. The Toronto Star. discussing the matter editorially, says: "Toronto is waking up to the seriousness of a sit- uation which penalizes the man who builds a house, and rewards the man who speculates in vacant lots; which discourages the fresh coat of paint, and the new roof, and the added veran- dah. It is bad enough when these things are assessed on a par with the land, as the law provides. But in Tor- onto they are assessed on a scale twice as high as that which is applied to the lot on which the only improvements are burdocks and thistles." The Star adds that in Toronto houses are assess- ed to nearly their full value, and in some cases to more than their value, while vacant lots pay taxes on only half their selling price. It requires no great gift of insight to see the unfairness of such a system. And the injustice is not restricted to Toronto. It is common throughout the whole Province. A good many people, who would not care, for the present, at least, to go the whole length of a single tax on land values, would strong- ly support a change which would permit of discrimination in favor of improve- ments as against land values created by the community, the discrimination to be exercised at the discretion of the people of the community who might very well be trusted to use their own judgment in such a matter. The chief objections urged against the proposal are that it savors of Henry Georgism, and that it would make for the adopt- ion of a "checker board" system. The objections are so trivial that it is not likely they will be allowed to block for long a desirable and needed improve- ment. SYSTEMATIC SEED IMPROVEMENT. are being made to take advantage of , these principles in the amelioration of our plant races. Finally there is pre-, sented the system of Seed Registration and the recently instituted plan of in- specting and sealing all sacks of seed t before they leave the premises of those growers who grow seed for the trade. This address which is printed in pam- phlet is being distributed free by the Publication Branch of the Department of Agriculture at Ottawa. In the production of the ordinary farm crops of Canada, approximately 40,000,000 bushels of seed are required annually. In view of the enormous extent to which yield is dependent upon the quality and vitality of the seed sown, it is of the greatest importance both to the individual farmer and to the nation, that as much of this seed as possible be of a high order. The wide spread efforts which are being put forth in Canada by the Cana- dian Seed Growers' Association to en- courage larger production and more general use of pure and vital seed of productive sorts, is the subject of a recent address by Mr. L. H. Newman, Secretary of the above Association, delivered before the Standing Commit- tee on Agriculture and Colonization of the House of Commons. In this address the speaker traced the origin and development of the As- sociation and dealt briefly with the real nature and extent of the results which are being realized. An instructing ex- position is also given of the modern conception of the principles of plant improvement and of the efforts which THOUGHT SHE WOULD SURELY DIE HAD PAINS AROUND THE HEART AND SMOTHERING PEELINGS Mrs. Wm. Lee, Uhthoff, Ont„ writes: - "I have taken three boxes of Milburn's Heart and Nerve Pills, and am now well. I had such pains around Lay heart and such smothering feelings that I thought I Would surely e. M dised to be Yea head propped up with pillows to keep me from smothering. One day I read in a paper about your Milburn's Heart and Nerve Pills, and three boxes cured me.." Milburn's Heart and Nerve Pills are a speeifc for all run-down men and women, +nether troubled with their heart or nerves, and are recommended by us with the greatest confidence that they will do all we claim for them.

The Dominion Experimental Farms system involves the Central Farm sit- uated at Ottawa and Branch Farms and stations at the following points; -Char- lottetown, P. E. I., Nappan and Kent- ville, N. S., Cap Rogue and St. Anne de la Pocatiere, Que., Brandon, Man., Indian Head, Rosthern and Scott, Sask., Lethbridge and Lacombe, Alta., Agas- siz, Ivermere and Sydney, B. C. In order to lay before the country the character and extent of the work un- dertaken at these farms for the benefit of agriculture, Mr. J. H. Grisdale, the Director, appointed last year to suc- ceed Dr. Saunders, was called upon during the last Sassion of Parliament to explain the whole matter to the Select Standing Committee on Agriculture and Colonization. Following a more or less lucid description of the Farms and their work, Mr. Grisdale answered many questions which brought out much useful information. During the course of the evidence, it is shown that at the Central Farm it cost $12.77 per acre for cultural operations to grow farm crops which yield a return of $45.47 per acre, as contrasted with $10 and $16.50 for the average farmer in the same locality. The whole subject as pre- sented has been printed in a bulletin of twenty-two pages which may be pro- cured free by applying to the Publicat- ions Branch, Department of Agricult- ure, Ottawa. Farmers' Institute. The annual meeting of East Huron Farmers' Institute was held in James- town on Wednesday, June 19th with about 60 present, the largest attend- ance in its history. President T. Mc- Millan occupied the chair and after opening remarks by the President the report of the Executive was read which showed that ten meetings were held during the year, at which 41 addresses were given and the attendance was 1308. Number of members received in 1912 up to June 1st was 277. The total receipts for the year, including balance from previous year were $244.55 and expense $154.63, leaving balance on hand, $89.92. Report was adopted on motion of R. Proctor, seconded by John Clegg. The Auditors' report was read by R. R. Bennett, one of the Auditors, and was adopted on motion of Joseph Smillie, seconded by R. McAllister. Following were elected Directors for the current year:-Howick-T. A. Gib- son, Wm. Knox, Alex. Gibson, T. A. Graham and Jas. Armstrong, V. A. Turnberry -Jas. Elliott, John Mc- Naughton, J.

Fraser was elected President to suc- ceed T McMillan who declined re-elect- ion. Amos Smith was elected 1st Vice President; Richard Proctor, 2nd Vice President; P. A. McArthur, Secretary - Treasurer. On motion of Messrs. El- liott and Smillie a hearty vote of thanks was given to Mr. McMillan for his ser- vices to the Institute. He had been President for 12 years. At the close of the business meeting E. A. Weir, of the Department of Apricuiture, gave a talk on "The Horse," with an animal for demonstration. Those present en- tered very freely into the discussion and much information was brought out. After the close of the meeting the gentlemen were given lunch by the members of the Women's Institute. MANY USES FOR KEROSENE. To clean the graniteware of smoke and discolorations, wet an old cloth with kerosene and wipe the smoke away. You will be surprised at the ease of the operation. A :correspondent of the Delineator ways gives morew y in which kerosene is valuable in the household. To clean the paint where soiled fin- gers have smudged it around the door- knobs, use kerosene. If the kitchen stove looks rusty rub it well with kero- sene. Cut the grease from your drains and sink by using kerosene on a brush. When the oilcloth on the kitchen table becomes stained, rub well with kerosene and wipe clean with fresh cloths.

A number of young people from town • attended the farewell lawn social given to Rev. and Mrs. I.B. Waliwin in Blue - vale, on Monday evening last. The sounding of the fire bell on Sun- day morning last about 1 o'clock, awak- ened the townspeople from their slum- bers, when it was found the Union fac- tory was on fire, supposed to have been caused by a spark from the smoke stack. The damage done was very small. The verandah and front gate courting is now in season, and much attention is given to the subject. We are sorry to hear that Mr, W. H. Kerr, editor of the Brussels Post has been laid off duty on account of illness. Rev. E. W. Hughes, W. F. Broeken- shire and Miss E.L.

If your irons are rough, wet a cloth with kerosene, and while the irons are very hot rub them on the cloth vigorously. When a knife gets rusty, let it stand in kerosene a few hours and then thrust it into tha ground several times, and see the rust disappear. Wet a rag in kerosene and stuff' it into the rat -hole in the shed and the rat will come no more to that hole. Use kerosene to clean the oilcloth under the kitchen stove. Before giving up neglected machin- ery and tools as hopeless, try kerosene to remove the rust.from them. POINTERS ON PUBLICITY. Stopping an ad. to save money is like stopping a clock to save time. The time to advertise is all the time. The man that fishes the longest has the largest basket of fish. Advertising is an insurance policy against forgetfulness. It compels peo- ple to think of yon. The unprofitableness of advertising is not in doing too much of it -it is in not doing it correctly. Like eating advertising should be con- tinous. When to -day's breakfast will answer for to -morrow's you can advert- ise on the same principle. If advertising is not a profitable in- vestment why do so many successful houses in all lines of trade keep contin- ously at it? Are they in errror or are yon? Remember no one lies awake think- ing of your business; out of print, out of mind. Advertisingldoes three things -informs the public who you are, where you are and what you sell. WHEN THE LiVER 1S INACTIVE CONSTIPATION SOON FOLLOWS The duty of the liver is to prepare and secrete bile, and serve as a filter to the blood, cleansing it of all impurities and poisons. Healthy bile in sufficient quantity is Nature's provision to secure regular action of the bowels, and therefore when the liver is inactive, failing to secrete bile in sufficient quantity, constipation soon follows. Mr. Henry Pearce, Owen Sound, Ont., writes: "Having beea troubled for years with constipation, and trying many so. called remedies, which: did me no good whatever, I was persuaded to try Mil - burn's I,axa-Liver Pills. I have found them most beneficial; they are, indeed, a splendid pill, and I can heartily recom- mend them to all suffering from constipa tion." Milburn's Laxa-Liver Pills are 25 cents per vial, or 5 vials for $1.00, at all dealers, or mailed direct on receipt of price by iThe T. Milburn Co., Limited, Toronto, Ont. Broken Dreams. When I was an ambitious boy it filled my breast with wholesome joy to think I had a chance to run for President some day; for every lad, they used to say, to that height might advance. But now that I am waxing old I find my trilbys growing cold when such a race is planned; my dreams of prestige and of power, of leadership, have all turned sour, and all my hopes ate can- ned. For if I ran for President,at once the opposition gent my record would updig; at last the tale would be unloosed of how I robbed a chicken roost and swiped a widow's pig. He'd dig up facts that I've concealed, for scandals old he'd go afield, exposing all my crimes; exhausting all his ways and means, he'd show I beat the slot ma- chines by using bogus dimes. Tne fact that I have whipped my wife, all ugly stains upon my life, would come to public view; I'd be so shamed in mind and soul that I would crawl into a hole when the campaign was through. I Stole a school -girl's hard-boiled egg; I cribbed a soldier's wooden leg -the truth would soon he known; so not for me the White House graft! The man• ties of great men like Taft methinks I'll let alone. --Watt Mason. The general manager of the Niagara,.

Locomotor Ataxia. "My nerves were very bad, and I could not sleep at night, nor -could I control my arms or legis," writes Mrs. Robt. Bustard, Maxwell, N. B.

In our lesson, verses 21, 22, It Ia written that they said: "He is beside Himself. IIe bath Beelzebub and by the prince of the devils casteth Ele out devil, " They frequently told Hi1n that He had a devil (Joint vb. 20; 52; x, 20), anti as early in the record as Matt. alt. 1-!, it k written that "the Pharisees went out and Ireld a council against HIim, how they might destroy, Him." It was the old story of Ps. Ixsxi, 11, "11y people would not harken to my voice, anti Israel would none of me." Even in the days el Enoch, the seventh from Adam, we read of the ungodly and (heir words and deeds (Jude 15). It is also written that at the end of this age, to which we are fast hastening, there shall be only a form of godliness without the power and sound doctrine will not be endured (11 '('itn. 111, 1-5; iv. 3). The great ad- versary, the farther of lies, who. to Hive questioned the word of God and made Gild a liar, will yet gather the nations to make war with God's people. Israel, and the Lamb of God Himself, but beast and false prophet shall go alive to the lake of tire and the devil to the bottomless pit (Rev. xvil, 14; tax, 19, 20: as, 13; Zech. sir, 1. 2. Like the multitudes who clung to Him when here in humiliation and upon whom He always had compas- sion, there nt•e multitudes now who would listen to the gospel if they could hear it. but canny of the religious lead- ers of today are ars much against the gospel of God concerning His Son, Je- sus Christ, as were the scribes and Pharisees against .(esus Christ. Those who today believe that Jesus is God, the Creator of all things, who died for as. bearing our sins in Ells own body en the cross, rose from the dead. as- cended .to Heaven and is coming again to set up Elis kingdom of righteousness and peace on this earth, are accounted unlearned. ignorant, behind the times, narrow and alt else that unbelieving words can describe. But his approval is everything. How utterly foolish seemed their accusation in the light of (lis question. "How can Satan cast out sato n ?" (Verse 23.) How great and fa r- reae•hing His saying in verse 27, "No man can enter into a strong tnan's house 110(1 21)011 his goods except he first hind the strong man." The devil Is the god of this world, blinding the minds of all unbelievers. The whole world lMh in the wicked one. And it was not wholly an untruth when be .ted to our Lord as he shott•ed -Film all 111. kingdoms of this world and the glory of thein, "All that is delivered unto cue, and to whomsoever 1 will 1 give it" (II Cor.
