There was no hearse, these conveyances being prac- tically unknown outside the larger cities. The only approach to a buggy was a sort of light wagon, or "democrat," as they were celled, which had belonged to Mr Murray and which conveyed the chief mourners. All the others in pro- cession were in lumber wagons or riding on horse -back. This shows that there were few if any buggies in use by the farmers in those days. Now there are few farmers who have not one or more of these vehicles and perhaps a more up-to-date and stylish one for the son or hired man with a driving horse to match, The telephone and electric lighting had not been thought of then, and now there is a telephone in nearly every farmer's house and soon nearly every house will be lighted and many of them will be heated by electricity." Department, but the local associations will be responsible for their proper maintainance and management under the general supervision of Officers of the Live Stock Branch. In the case of Stallions, the members of the asscia- tions will also be required to pay a fee covering an annual insurance premium. All animals distributed will be bought from home breeder and will be Cana- dian bred. As far as possible, they will be purchased in the province in which they are to be placed. In this way Canadian breeders will receive en- couragement and their market will be increased not only t<irectly but also in- directly through the emphasis given throughout the country to the value of pure bred sires. It may he added that it is not the intention to place the an- imals in districts where suitable male animals of the same class are already owned by private individuals. The aim is rather to aid sections where pure bred sires are lacking and as well to encour- age new communities in following a proper and intelligent system in breed- ing. All bulls distributed will be purchas- ed subject to the tuberculin test and only stallions which have passed a rigid veterinary inspection for soundness will be selected. In order to take advantage of this form of assistance, it will be necessary for interested parties, in any section! to undertake the organization of a local association in whose hands such sires as are required may be placed. Com- plete information regarding the rules and regulations governing the distribu- tion may be made upon application to the Live Stock Commissioner, Ottawa. Whenever possible, an Officer of the Branch will render assistance in the per- fecting of the necessary local organiz_ ation. People who Dread Penumonia. (By a Physician.) Fat people and people who drink heavily are afraid of colds and pneum- onia. There are two reasons why. First, they are more susceptible. Second these ailments go much harder with them. When a person takes alcohol and food together the alcohol is burned and the food is left to clog the tissues. In ease of a cold or pneumonia there $ Boxes Cured Psoriasis. Mrs. Nettie Massey, Comecon, Ont., writes: "Three doctors described my trouble as psoriasis, and one said I could never be cured. The disease spread all over me, even on my face and head and the itching and burning was hard to bear I used eight boxes of Dr. Chase's Oint- ment anu am entirely eured-not a sign of a sore to be seen. I cats hardly praise this Ointment enough." THE TENT CATERPILLARS. The division of Entomology of the Experimental Farms Branch of the Dominion Department of Agriculture, Ottawa, has recently issued a circular on "Tent Caterpillars" by Mr. J. M, Swaine, Assistant Entomologist for Forest Insects, in the Division of Ent- omology, This publication discusses the defol- iating Tent Caterpillars which were so extremely numerous in parts of eastern Canada during the season of 1912. A description Is given of the different stages of the insects, and their life histories and habits are discussed in considerable detail. The Amercian Tent Caterpillar constructs the large silken tents in May and June, so well known by all owners of fruit trees, and from these retreats the caterpillars emerge to feed upon thenearby foliage. This species is found most commonly in orchards. although it also infests var- is more or less strain on the vital or- sous shade trees. The Forest Tent gans. If these are cluttered up with Caterpillar spins no tent, but feeds in unnecessary fat or weakened by alco- groups of several scores upon the fol - hot, the ehance of recovery is that much iage, and rests at intervals massed up - less. on the trunk or lower branches. This No matter what the disease, the in- dividual who eats moderately, exercis- es. sutliciently to keep a normal weight and avoids alcohol, has much the best chance to fight it off. And often this type of same humanity goes in uch far- ther and escapes it altogether. Don't let yourself grow unnaturally fat. Don't learn to lean for strength on alcohol.

You Should never neglect a cold, how- ever alight, If you do not treat it in time it will, in all possibility, develop into bronchitis, pneumonia, asthma, or softie other serious throat or lung trouble. On the first sign of a cold or cough it is advisable to euro it at once, and not let it run on for an indefinite period. For this purpose there is nothing to equal Dr. Wood's Norway Pine Syrup, a remedy that has been universally used fdr the past twenty-five years. You don ot experiment when you get it.

This, in some cases, represents the difference between failure and suc- cess. With the development in cities of a steady cash demand at high prices for all kinds of produce and a general improvement in transportation facili- ties, there is no good reason why then farmer should not realize greater re- turns on the commodities which he has to dispose of. A New York business man who was forced -to a New Jersey suburb on ac- count of broken health is making a good living by repacking vegetables and fruit which he buys from farmers and truckers, rel!aeking thele and sell- ing direct to the consumer, He bas a huge list of regular customers among the residents ot the numerous small towns of his vicinity, who buy all their fruit and vegetables from him because they can depend upon getting thein fresh. clean and sound. A recent visit to the great produce market of South Water street, Chicago, disclosed the fact that hundreds of shippers send their apple crop -much of it tine fruit of good color and free from rot -to the commission men dumped into barrels regardless of size or condition, mixed with dirt, leaves and twigs, all tending, to lower the val- ue of the fruit, a condition which the commission men are quick to take ad- vantage of. The merchants greatly in- crease their own profits by repacking the apples. Any farmer or gardener who is lo- cated within reasonable distance of a good market will make more money by selling to retail dealers or consum- ers than by shipping his stuff to the commission men in the large cities. By careful attention be can in a short time establish a reputation for his prod- uce which will bring more customers than he can serve. • (7 ..... ............-.-..-....-,-.-..•..•5•(-1 5..-.-..Q NOT HOW MUCH, BUT HOW GOOD. The man who on eighty acres gives self to high purposes and large living will easily outrank in intellectual power and social influence the mere money seeker on a farm many times larger.

Farming With Brains. When one hears of a great yield oft corn or small grain it is a safe guests that a good alfalfa or clover sod exist- ed on the field not many years before. The planting of good seed is the foun. dation of success in farming, and many there be who fall to build upon that foundation, For all such the outlook is discouraging. The emepost heap Is the farmer's saving bank.
