Applying a poultice may seem a LIllltple matter to the num of inexpt4rt- •once; but it is not so oimpie tib it tiepins. We know of a ntau who put a hot poultice on his dog's foot, clad ree flour afterward searched everywhere for it in the yard. The dot; 'rad (niteil the poultice, of course, and expesieuce teaches that titre would occur, Experience is necessary to prevent accidents and Insure the proper doing of eveu simple things for tile',, people and animals. The man who puts t4 big liot poultice upon a hor'se's jaw or t;proat for the first time, knows that something is wrong when an hour or two afterward he finds the poultice cold and sagged away from the skin. A flaxseed -meal eoultice Is heavy from the presence of water and will sag unless properly applied. it is common- ly used and beneficial in strangles !colt distemper) when an anaeess tuidcr the jaw is coming to a head, To put such a poultice in place, so 11;at the hat flaxseed -meal will stay in contact with the skin, use a. "many - tailed bandage," To zualte one, tear tight or ten tails six or eight incites long on each end of a strip of new tua- bieached linen, one and one-quarter Yards long and half a yard wide. The cloth may be smaller or slightly lagrer than this, according .to tato size of the animal to be treated. Put the cloth in place by tying opposite tails together ever the face, in front of the eyes, back of the cars and on top of the neck. Make the poultice as thick as soft clay or putty, adding a little wheat bran to keep it from sticking %then dry. After the cloth is in palace, unfasten or loosen two tails in front of the earl••, and two others be- l.ind them; then pack the poultice mt:terial into place through this open- ir.g, mould it snugly upon the parts needing the material and retie the tails to keep the pointless in place,. This is the only plan that "works" l,erfectly, To poultice a foot make the poultice material as before, lay it on a large square of new gunny sacking, or can- vas, set the sore foot down upon it, tiring up the corners of the sucking kind fasten them in place with a strati !passed through several holes m the tacking and then buckled around the pastern. It is better still to use a lemma of gunny sacking to bo covered in turn by a square of canvas. Always tie a horse uta short when such a poul- tice is applied, else he may tear it off v.lth his teeth. If he is so sore and latae that he cannot stand up, he will have to be supported with veterinary' slings or allowed to Be down. In the recumbent position pe will leave poul- tices alone. A. many -tailed bandage should also be used when applying a poultice to the knee, hock or ankle. Before ttp- ('lying a poultice to the knee or hock, put a soft straw or hay reps as a bandage on the leg below; then put on the poultice or other dressing secured in place by a many tailed bandage. The straw bandage will help to support the poultice. Further sup- eort the poultice from above with strips of new unialoaclied muslin, or with straps fastened to a breast eoi- tar, or breeching strop, as the case may require. When a poultice cloth or other bandage is applied to a hock jnInt, remember to omit the point c.f the hock, else the bandage willnot remain in place. A horse should be tied up short in les stall when a knee or hock Is poul- ticed. The standing posture is also Itecessary for the successful treatment of a cut ("broken") knee, or for a !tuck that is tut in front. Rest is thus obtained and is necessary in such cases. If the horse ' is allowed to lie down, the motion of getting up and cr..'wn keeps tate wound open and irri- tated. A horse should also be tied up after stitches are put in a large wound of the shin and muscles of the rump, :1t one side" of the' tail, commonly ceased by the kick of a stable mate. USING POOR SEED CORN. Bad germination in seed corn, com- Nned witb prolonged cold weather at tame of planting, Inas been the cat:ce of melt disappointment' this season to ensilage growers, The seed corn growers of southwestern Ontario were almost equally disappointed, through being unable to find a market for their thoroughly -dried corn of strong vitality. Many campies were taken by seed inspectors, and the investigations made indicate clearly that at least 75 Per cent. of the cause for a poor stand can be traced to the ensilage growes buying low priced seed. Unfortunately, high priced seed is not always a guarantee of high qual- ity, but low priced seed is possible only with cern that has had' no spe- cial care in curing for seed. The far- mer who Bete $1.50 per bush. of 70 lbs. on the ear for corn taken out of his corn crib In the spring Inas more pro- fit than the farmer who receives $2.50 a bush. et 70 lbs. ori the ear for corn that has been kiln -dried or rack -dried fn special corn -drying buildings, If harvested in dry weather and kept in narrow Cribs through the winter, the cheap corn may give a fairly sat- isfactory stand of plants with thick seeding and good soil and weather conditions. But too many farmers have learned to their sorrow the very seri- ous risk they take in using corn win- tered in this way, It is always advis- able for growers to procure seed corn On the ear as during moist weather Shelled corn in trauoportation or stor- age will absorb moisture and mold Within a very few days, thus destroy- ing its vitality.

BEARS' TERRIBLE COMBAT. ----o---' Fought to the Death in Cage in Edinburgh Paris. As the result of au tweltual fight waged in, the bear pit at the Scottish Zoological Park, nainburgiz, tine small- est et the brown beans, a favorite among tnu juvenue \letters to the lark, was killed. Seven bears in all—five brown and two black --were accommodated ill the Pit, and the fight originated through the email brown bear grabbing to bis- cuit which a larger bear considered wet; intended for it, The beget at- tacked the smaller one with deadly 1t:ry. Some laborers hurled stones at the attacker, but the stones had little • effect, and an attendant, who was hastily summoned, gamely went into the pit to the assistance of the over- borne animal. He got hold of one of the large bear's hand legs, but was hirable to pull the bear off its victim. With a Iteavy club the keeper Jove aff the attacker, but only for a mo- znont or two. The keeper also used a heavy whip until it broke. In deadly grips tho two bears rolled into the water, but the fight continued for some time, until the big bear was eventually beaten off. Madly mauled, the victim got into a cage, and its wounds were dressed and restoratives applied, hut without avail, for the animal died later in the evening.

Vie time has now come when e,l- luost every tanner desires to tuake tbpro e:mente In iris strain of layers Most sten have learned that the roes - ter of tate breeding pen has a greet Oat to do with the egg -laying ability of ntxt season's layers, This influ- epee of tiro rooster has been behaved in, to some extent, fol' years. Ilut not until late years have we come to form definite ideas of Itis value and intelligent conceptions as to his se- lection enol use. 1''or many year's the general farmer or ordinary keeper of !poultry- has from time to time every year or so, Introduced into his flocis. roosters of strange blood with the hope of improving the flock and its activity as to egg production. in the selection of these roosters there were no rules laid down, except that they of eourse must be of good, healthy vigorous stock, and perhaps of the same breed. The result is that the average flock is a lot of mongrel - bred. hens without a characteristic so planted its the family as to breed true. In the selection of a rooster I would seek amuug no flocks outside those of your breed. If your block bo Plymouth Rocks I would not think of lookiug for a rooster among any- thing but Rocks. I would want to know that Ile was.. of an egg -laying strain. I would want to know that the parties of whom 1 purchase make regular use of the trapnest and that this rooster's family bas a good ettg- laying record. I would want to know that in his general build-up too much has not been sacrificed in weight and centitutiontti vigor. It will pay you to get in touch with some good breeder. Tell hits the condition of Your flock and let bier stock you with roosters next fall, BY penning the breeders one or two may be all you need. One reason I have taken up the rooster question just now is that, by beginning now, you can so manage your old roosters as to save enough in one year to buy good roosters, This is done by disposing of your old ros- ters right now before the weather gets warns. As the breeding season is over you will have no more use for the males until next year, The aver- age cost of keeping a fowl is about ono dollar per year While your roosters are eating this amount they are not laying a. single egg, and so are a dead. expense for a whole year. Sell them now and you will not only save their cost of feed, but you will save the damage the roosters do in the way of fertilizing the eggs, The annual loss of $4$,000,000 in the pro- duction and handling of the nation's egg supply is largely due to the farm- er's neglect to remove the males from the frocks as soon as the hatching season is over. Charge a just part of this loss to your roosters and it will be quite a help towards saving a sum with which to buy a good rooster or two for your pen or choice breeders, Also snake allowance for the suns these roosters you now I1ave, will brine on the market. If your local market isn't enough for good choice roosters I would pen them and after a week or few weeks extra feeding slaughter one each Sunday . for a change on your own table. It will well pay you to in some way elimin- ate these roosters front the hens dur- ing the warm weather. ' If they aro not good stock like you would like to have I would take areasonable amount thus saved and buy good choice stock •tor next season's mat- ings, If you do not do this then you will lose enough by the neglect to have bought the new roosters. Then, why wouldn't this plan of selling the roos- ters now be the same as getting new roosters without cost?

Ip'AL-TS AND RULES, Foots sail rules which, you should ebeerve: 1. Red mites niuldpiy most readily during warm weather, and i11 dark, dump, filthy houses. 2. Avoid all the hiding places pos- sible. Change nest material often. Don't allow any decayed or broken eggs to remain in the nests. . 3, When a ]louse is once Wasted, very thorough treatment is required In order to get rid, of them, 4. Any one of three nnetluels may be used: (a) Whttowasling and painting with kerosene or crude carbolic acid; (b) fumigating with sulphur and painting with cresol emulsion; (e) r'praying with lime sulphur solution, 5. To prevent mites, keep the house 'clean and paints the roots and interior of nests every two weeks with kero- sene: and trade carbolic nett!. It is found that young .ehickene can take a greater proportion of animal food in the form of fish meal than as neat, This is no doubt due to its being more easily digested.. Some re- csntly bare reared perfectly on 5 per cent. of !]tis food from the shell, INDIAN RUNNER DUCKS, Indian Runner ducks are growing rapidly in popular favor and in some sections are competing with hens for favor among poultrymen. Remark- kable records for egg production have been made by the Indian runners, which are good foragers, grow rapid- ly and reach maturity early. Full grown -specimens weigh from four to four and -a half pounds. This is about the weight of Pekins, but is not too sntalI for profitable market- ing, since the ducklings can be refilled to marketing size quickly. The old fowls are good foragers and the heav- iest laying breed of ducks known, The market is far from being sup- plied and duck .farmers aro finding this aprofitable branch of the busi- ness. The heaviest laying ducks ne- cessnrily are the most profitable, and .dunk growers are finding the Indian Runners, both colored and white, very satisfactory for this purpose. The Whito Indian Runner duck maltes a better appearance when dressed than the colored Indian Run- ner. It has every other quality of the Indian Runner and its spreading popularity bids fair to result, in a very few years, in the supremacy of the White Indian Runner duck over its sister with colored feather's. The Largest Reptile. Vie largest existent reptile is the man-eating salt water crocodile of southern Asia and Australia, which, when full grown, Treasures thirty feet in length from end of nose to tip of tail. One man makes hardly more -than a mouthful for this fearsome creature. She that always complains is never pitied. .01•1111114•1121,[1,01110.4.021.. JERS1.11.5.241.20.16.e.elma.C.

A titan who Is now at the head of one of the largest establishments for dyeing silks in this eountry tells a story of a strange and thrilling adveJl- ture that he passed through when he was still only the ,superintendent of 1 rho "boiling recut: ' "Sills," he says, in. tailing the story, "bas been the means of my living and once it saved niy life. have you ever been in a coon where they boil the raw silk? it's a hot, steaming place, with great bubbling vats that are sunk to a level with the floor. The raw silk, in bales, all fluffy and sticky, comes in on rolling trucks, and is dumped into the vats. The mass ot ed ad forehas tit bo getsstirrsoakedbout throughagood andeaf goesbe- under. "Just before the noon hour one day a truck came in with two bales on it. "'Dump them into No. 6 vat,' I. told the men. 'I'll stir them if you fel- lows want to go to dinner,' "When they had gone I began to look around for the stirring fork, I couldn't find it anywhere, 'Confound Bill!' 1 -said to myself, 'He loses ev- erything.' "I had hardly got the words out of my mouth when any foot went orf the edge of the vat. I felt myself failing, and I was seized with the full convic- tion of death. "I bad time to think over just how terribly hot the boiling water would be and to wonder bow much of me would be left when the men cane back from dinner. Then I felt myself land flat on my back on the mass of floating silk, "To this day I can see the very look of the old smoky roof as I Tay on the island of silk with the boiling water on all sides- it was horribly hot there, The perspiration started out all over me, and I. felt that I must move, "First, however, I shouted as loudly as I could, When no one answered I cautiously tried to turn on my side, The bale of fibre began slowly to roll over. Nearly paralyzed with terror, I threw out one arm. It was just enough change in balance, I felt the rolling motion stop. Then 1 knew it wouldn't cio to move. I lay on mY back, poised on the middle of the bale, and walled for help. After a minute or two 1 began to realize that the !silk was slowly sinking into the vat. You could hardly notice the motion. At first I could look out of the cor- ner of my eyes and see the edge of vat No, 8. A little Iater, when I looked again, ft was out of my line of vision. 1 couldn't move without hay- ing the bale roll over and if I re- mained still I would go {Iowa inch by inch into the scalding water below, "I can remember that I became a little hysterical, It's funny what tricks the mind plays,. "'This is dyeing with a vengeance,' I said aloud, and I even laughed as I said it. "It was growing hotter. Steam had begun to percolate through the silk, and I was wet through with the stif- ling clouds that rose from the surface of the water. I had no idea of time. By and by, however, some one an- swered my shouts, The door opened and two men came running across the room. "Get a pole!" shouted one, "I knew that would be fatal; the slightest push and I would roll over into the steaming stew. "'Boys,' cried I, "don't touch me or it will be all over. One of you turn off the feed pipe: "I could hear the chug, chug of the steam being cut of from the vat. A moment later I could see the wet rim that broadened round the edges, and I: knew the water was falling. It took: half an hour to empty No. 6, For a while the two men ran round Iike excited June bugs. Then they got a rope and sat on the edge 02 the vat watching me with great staring eyes, ".As tbe water ran out the silk sank- now on one side, now on the other. Could It start to roll. Both the men grunted and sat Up very straight. Suddenly one of them cried out: "'There's the bottom!'

(Montreal Evening News.) . In the past, Canada has learned many lessons of importance from the experience of her nearest neighbor, the United States. While the Cana- dian people are always disposed to act with independence, they .are not short- sighted enough to reject what may be learned with profit from another coun- try very similar in nature to this one. A tow weeks ago, the Interstate Com- nreree Commission of the United States Itancled out a decision granting to the railway companies in certain sections the right to increase their rates, 'A 1'ery years ago any such decision would have aroused a storm of protest. The recent decision was accepted, generailY, in such good part as to suggest that the public is being educated in econo- mic truths. President Woodrow 'Wilson, who is one of the leading economists of his day', sometimes hands out hints to the public along with his messages, One of these ho handed out when he first mentioned the subject of freight rate increases. He said the prosperity of tate country is bound up with the pros- perity of the railways. He suggested that the public, in hurting the rail- ways, were hurting themselves. Justice for the railvays was justice for the public also. Big industries, like some big men, are sometimes not in popular favor with the general public. They are ex- pected to give evidences of generosity to all and sundry: otherwise, they are roundly condemned. They lend them- selves to the critical uses of cartoon- ing. Such has been the experience of the 'Vatted States. But the United States is learning what an expensive habit railway' baiting is, and is quick to profit by the lessen. in the last election, the remarkable gains of the Republican party, once shot and ap- parently killed because it was believed to he a friend of the "big interests," has been interpreted by all disinterest- ed 'political experts in the United States as sufficient evidence that the nagging of business just because busi- ness was guilty of sin, had begun to pail on the American »ttblic. When an application by the Cana- dian railway companies for permis- sion to increase their freight rates is before the Board of Railway Clommis:- sioners, it is timely to point out that the great danger both the railways and. tate public 'rave to fear is polluter pre- judice against the railways. Let such prejudice take form, and it will be ex- tremely hard for justice to be done, with the result that tile railways suffer and the country with them.
