"The Liberal par- ty," says the Free Press, "are united and determined that, if they can possib- , ly prevent it, Canada shall not enter upon the dangerous policy of direct cash contributions to the Imperial ex-cheq- uer x-che- q uer until the people have been given an opportunity to express themselves at the polls." British authorities was given to the plan which was unanimously approved by the Canadian Parliament of having a Can- adian navy, Such was the unanimity of parties here, and of authorities, abroad ...� that Lord Grey felt free, in a speech at .., "' Just what you need after a hard day's work --A Refreshing Cup of. Calgary, to speak of it favorably, for which he was severely reprimanded by Mr. Joseph Martin, not a jingo, but an ultra Liberal, in the Imperial Parlia- ment. On this side of the sea he was I denounced by the Bourassa faction. In both cases the fault found lay in his commending a navy at all. Lord Char- les Beresford, the very impersonation of jingo Imperialism, visited Canada and upheld that policy, and Lord Milner another representative, Imperialist, came later with the same advice. Of course, in doing so, these English auth- orities believed that they were only sup- porting what Canada had declared for, ac no responsible Englishmen ventures to give Canada advice. Still from that day to this it seems to have been the pre- vailing opinion in Great Britian that such would be the best thing, in the general interest, for Canada to do. Of course, when Canada changed, or. at least when the Canadian Government changed, and proposed an emergency offering of thirty-five million dollars, there went up in Britain a paean of laddation. But the more responsible people regretted the change, as it seemed to express enmity to Germany and was not in conformity with the mutual efforts of the beat men in both countries to bring rivalry of armament to an end. The Manchester Guardian, which is probably the most powerful and independent exponent of Liberal sentiment, has taken this view. Its latest argument is that grants to the Imperial treasury or navy will inevitab- ly breed party dissension in Canada, while, if Canada had an armament of her own, it would have, as in Australia, the whole strength of her nationality behind it. Men of this way of thinking are urging the British Government to discourage this form of assistance as against Imperial policy. It is likely that the answer they will get will be that the Imperial Government cannot undertake to advise Canada in such matters, and that Canada's loyalty is greatly to be commended. But there is every reason to believe that the home Government is favorable to that advice. Our own view has been that a generous contribution to the Imperial defenceis due by us as a ti ankoffering, but not due at all as an emergency need. The State of Washington is the first state to consider seriously a proposal to provide for the destitute wives of in- mates of penal institutions, and a mea- sure is now before the Legislature which says that the state or county shall pay to such wives $1.59 a day for each day that the imprisoned husband works either in prison or in road gangs. There is often a long way, however be- tween the introduction of a bill and its adoption, and it is not safe to assume that this particular proposal will become law. It is, however, to be regarded as a step in the direction of dealing with an evil which many legislatures have confessed to have an existence, but have been unwilling to tackle. Brant- ford Expositor. Giving the boy on the farm an inter- est in the product of his work is the surest method of impressing upon him the fact of its profitableness. There comes to him a sense of personal re- sponsibility, and he realizes that upon his exertions depend the elements of profit and loss. Left to his own de- vices, he soon learns to extricate him- self from difficulties, each of which he begins to look upon as a part of hiJ ed- ucation. Seldom does a man who has had this kind of handling in his youth voluntarily leave the business of hus- bandry. If he does, it is more than likely necessitated by the fact of phy- sical incapacity to maintain the high speed of his early years. Many men do not play enough and when they ought to be in their prime are broken down with too much work. The fault is their own, and not that of the calling. Yet it makes an unfavorable impression upon those to whom the farm might ,otherwise hold out some allurements. -Rochester Herald. Telephones in Canada. Facts about telephone companies i>u Canada are set forth in the annual re- port on the subject by the Comptroller of Statistics. The number at the end of the year was 683, an increase of 146. In Manitoba and Alberta the systems are owned by the Provinces, while Sas- katchewan is fast absorbing them. Ontario has 360 phone companies, Que- bec 62, New Brunswick 17, Nova Scotia 12, Alberta 3, Saskatchewan 206, Mani- toba 3, British Columbia 10 and Prince Edward Island one. The aggregate cap- ital is $46,276,851, an increase of $6,232, 869 over last year. The capital is equal to $124.75 per phone. The cost of real property is placed at $56,875,799, Que- bec heading the list with $27,480,159. This is due particularly to the Bell Tele- phone Co. being credited to Quebec, the head office being in Montreal. though its lines are all over the country. Gross earnings of all companies in the year were $12,273,620, operating expenses $9, 094,688 and net earnings $3,178,987, The operating expenses were 74 per cent of the gross. A total of 370,884 tele- phones are in use in Canada equal to one phone for every eight of population Employees numbered 12, 873 and salar- ies last year totalled $2,659,641.

A short time ago a paragraph appear- ed in the papers revealing an appalling conditions of affairs in Regina, the cap- ital of Saskatchewan, now it is the neighboring city of Calgary that has come under the ban. A despatch from that place dated so late as Feb. 4th says: Isabel Ernest, a Pinkerton de- tective who came here to locate a young girl who ran away from her home in Oklahoma with a young Calgary man and who took the girl away with her, gave out an interview in which she said: "Though I have been in a good many cities I can safely say that I have found none the size of Calgary that can com- pare with it in regard to girls living partly vicious lives. Your blocks are full of them, and in my search for this girl I discovered the fact that girls have sold themselves to obtain the bare nec- essities of life because of the paucity of their wages. "If these girls did not sell themselves occasionally to obtain what they need to live the life they are forced to live in the city, they could not afford any longer to live and sleep in comfort, or dress themselves in accordance with the demands of the establishments where they are employed. "Briefly if they were good they could not afford to work for the wages they are receiving. Some of these girls are living with men who are enrolled upon the church membership rolls of your city. "In your blocks you have hundreds of these girls, Some of them are really bad and started bad young; but there are others just like the girl I am tak- ing away, who are of good families of Canada and the United States, and their mothers believe they are all work- ing hard and living on the wage i right- ly earned. "Your city has Chicago beat in this respect." Catarrh of the Throat and Stomach.

The condition does not dir- ectly affect digestion, the gastric juices are secreted as in health, but digestion may be hindered by the large quantity f muscus secreted, this, in itself is in- digestible and impedes the free action of the digestive juices on the foods. The pain occurs after eating is no evidence in favor of indigestion obtain- ing. The pain is more likely to result from pressure of the food on the tender lining membrane of the stomach. If, when the stomach is empty, the tender- ness if still felt, it is safe 'to diagnose the case as one of catarrh; on the other hand, the persistence of the true pain would point to some form of inflam- ation. Highly -spiced dishes taken into a cattarhal stomach may , give pain that lasts long after the food has been di- gested; there is one consideration of great importance in connection with the liability of catarrh to spread from the throat to the stomach; this is the evil of not expectorating the mucus brought up from the throat. The practice of swallowing the mucus is dangerous, and children should be taught the pro- per disposal of it when coughing, or otherwise "raising" the phlegm, or mucus. Where catarrh of the stomach causes vomiting, no pus or blood is ejected. STRENGTH. I would be strong, but I have no desire For strength such as a tyrant would display In seeking to cause others to admire, Or through his wish to have unbridled sway. Such strength may come through accid- ent of birth, Or be the poor result of circumstance To be destroyed or robbed of all its worth By some unlucky word or evil -chance. I would be strong in heart and strong in trust, I would have strength when all is dark to strive, To thrust away temptation, to be just, To face disaster, keeping hope alive. I wound have strength to stand out for the right, Though all my friends turned blindly to the wrong; To be undaunted in a losing fight, To keep my spirit clean, I would be strong Old Age. Old age as it comes in the orderly pro- cess of nature is a beautiful and majes- tic thing. It stands for experience. knowledge, wisdom, counsel. That is old age as it should be, but old age as it often is means poor digestion, torpid bowels, a sluggish liver and a general feeling of ill health, despondency and misery. This in almost every instance is wholly unnecessary. One of Cham- berlain's Tablets taken immediately af- ter supper will improve the digestion, tone up the liver and regulate the bow- els. That feeling of despondency will give way to one of hope and good cheer. For sale by all dealers.

IN THE DAIRY BARN, In building, or remodeling a cow stable remember the impor- tance of plenty of sunshine, pure air, tight floors, walls that aro easily kept clean and comforta- ble stalls. The more grain there is in . silage the better it will be. Si- lage can vary in quality as much as corn fodder, and this should • be remembered when comparing results with some other feed. Good bright corn fodder is • worth more than timothy bay to feed the cows, but it won't X bring as much on the market. •- The good pasture fills the milk • pail, and the silo does the same in the winter. .: The silo is one of the funda- :: mental necessities for profitable - winter dairying. ::IIi-:::: • • • • • 0•44444-14.1-4÷1-1-1-144:11t i I PORK FROM FALL PIGS. An Oklahoma Farmer's Successful Method of Feeding Shotes. Last June we sold on the Chicago market forty-six bead of hogs at an ap- proximate profit of $3180. or $12.50 a head, writes Hugh Webster of Okla- homa in Orange J odd Farmer. These were winter grown hogs, farrowed the middle of September and cured for un- der suitable conditions until turned off as nine months -old -shotes. They weigh- ed on an average 290 pounds and Drought the long price of $9,35 per 100 pounds. By the last of September all of our eight sows had farrowed, pre- senting a tine bunch of pigs to start operations on. Now in regard to shelter, and we con- sider this as an important reason for our raising a thrifty bunch of hogs, we have a centralized hog house. It is built in a side hill with southern ex- posure. It is 20 by 100 feet in size and has two stories, the upper story being used for feed. straw. etc. Below are adjustable peus, with a central aisle, stove and feed cooker. Here during the entire winter we kept the pigs, al- lowing, them access to outdoors, but always having a place of shelter and warmth. The pigs from the first were well bedded and thrived well in these sunshiny pens. The first three weeks the pigs de- pended largely on the sows for feed. Then as they began to eat from the troughs we made a creep where they might eat at will. Here we fed them a thin buttermilk slop and a little shell- ed corn. We never gave them more than they could eat. When six weeks old we weaned them, having previously castrated the male pigs. By three months the 'bunch of fifty-five pigs were eating a barrel of slop each day, to- gether with a half bushel of shelled corn. • For the next three • months. the pigs were fed two barrels of slop per day and five ears of corn apiece. The slop Photo by Oregon Agricultural college. The Berkshires are supposed to be the only breed of swine of 'purity of type. pedigree and lineage of more than fifty years. The breed originated• in Berkshire, England, abput 150 years ago. In the hands of exhort breeders they have stead- ily developed in size, good forin and early maturity, gaining in flesh one or two pounds per day until They reach large size. It is doubtful if there be any pure breed of swine that is more certain of producing Its good qualities when cro$sr4l with grades. The young Berkshire boar shown weighed 100 pounds, at; four months of age. He is. fibril the herd of the Oregon Agricultural col - 'lege. was made of one-fourth sack of shorts to about forty gallons of buttermilk. To this was added hot water, thus making a steaming feed. We did out feeding at one end of the house where were arranged permanent, troughs and a feeding floor. , the corn was fed ai-t• er slopping. We did not water the pigs, „the slop taking Its ,place. After'feeding the doors' were opened and the pig: driven out to exercise or He in the sun oh the south side of the barn. We kepi tankage in a trough In easy access to the pigs and put a half pailful in each barrel of feed. The pigs grew•rapldly. The slop an• d tankage aided In growth, and the corn kept up a degree of fat. By the 1st of March the shotes weighed on the average 140 pounds. 'i'hey were a ani• form hunch and growthy. The e'eathee was moderate, and, they were out most of the time. We had to get them out of the house in order to matte room tote the early March littet:e that were corn• hig on. At the sntne time the gilts that we wanted 10 keep were separhht• ed let ring the hnn''h of forty s1:( shutes to be fitted for the early market. These were put in a small lot with air omen shed.
