Whitechurch
Ammer. M mneei.-The annual
meeting of the Whitechurch Cheese
and Butter Co. was held in the For-
esters' hall on Monday' afternoon,
Dec. 21st, with Robert Currie, jr., in
the chair. From the reports of the
Secretary and Treasurer and the ad-
dress of President Henry, it was
shown that the past season has been a
very successful one. $100 was paid
off the indebtedness and a dividend of
10 per cent was paid. President
Henry in his address pointed out the
necessity of being loyal to the cream-
ery, and sending cream from the be-
ginning to the end of the season, as
nearly all the expense of the factory
is. stationary. The quantity of butter
made was 85,000 pounds and as high
as 100,000 pounds have been made and
the expense was not much more than
the past season. The price of butter
being high made the season a success-
ful one. The same Board of Directors
was re-elected, viz., F. Henry, R.
Purdom, J. Gillespie, W. Martin and
R. Simpson. Rev. G. P. Duncan was
asked to address the meeting and he
congratulated the directors on their
success and on the business -like man-
ner in which they conducted the
creamery. He said we should go in
for more intensive farming and he
had found where silos were prevalent
and corn and roots grown extensively,
he found the most prosperous 'farm-
ers. He advocated the keeping of
more dairy cows and feedingliberally.
His address was much appreciated.
Wm. Martin said that he had tried
the experiment of feeding green oats
and peas after Ist of August, follow-
ing this with corn, and had good re-
sults. He had grown corn for, twenty-
five years and was satisfied that
nothing would produce as much food
on so little land. Mr. Thompson
spoke and was well satisfied that
good cows well wintered and cared
for would pay. Ile was satisfied with
Iris cows for the past season. The
large crowd of farmers was well
satisfied with the meeting and the
feeling was that there is good pros-
pects for dairying next season as
cows are very scarce. J. H. -Sperling
is the well known butter maker.

was then spent by all,
If your stomach, heart or kidneys
t
a • least,a few closes only
weak, try
of Dr. Shoop's Restorative. In five or
ten chtys only, the result will • surprise
you. A few cents will cover the cost.
And here is why help comes so quickly.
Dr. Shoop doesn't drug the stomach,
nor stimulate the heart or kidneys.
Dr. Sh000's Restorative goes directly
to the weak and failing nerves. Each
organ has. its own controlling nerve. i
When these nerves fail, the depending
organs must of necessity falter. This
Di ' vital troth clearly tells wh
ann et to a
r. Shoop's Restorative is so universal-
ly successful. Its success is leading
druggists everywhere to give it uni-
versal preference. A test will surely
tell. Sold by all druggists.

CANADA'S POOR CON.
SUMPTIVESI
A Story more Touching than anything
from the Pon of the gifted
Ian Maclaren.
In the current issue of the DOOR OF
HOPE, published by the National Sani-
tarium Association, -347 King Street
West, Toronto, a page is given over to
letters received from the many persona
from all parts of the Dominion seeking
admission to the
Muskoka
oka Free
Hospital for Consumptives.
i
Seldom have we read anything more
pathetic. Here, fqr example, is a letter
from a physician In Creemore, Ont.,
asking for the admission of a patient
by the name of Morrison. He says
'.I
would like to urge strongly upon
you the great claims of this patient.
He has no home-motherdead-father
working asafarmlaborer. The boy has
been living with an unmarried uncle -
no housekeeper -work, cooking, etc.,
being done by the uncle. The boy has
absolutely no place to go where he
might be given any reasonable care,
and he can get none whore he is."
Another case ie from 'Thorold.
Johnston Weldon writes:-
"I am a youngmarsiedman, twenty -
throe years of age. For several years
I have been sick, but always able to
keep my •feet. Now I have come to
the time when- I cannot work, and
in
cannot get medicine without means.
My lungs are affected, and Dam writing
now to see if you can get me into the
Muskoka Free Hospital for Consump-
tives. My young wife is here, and
her parents have kindly opened their
doors to her if I go away."
Just one more of the many we might
quote. This is from a physician in
Campbellford, Ont. He writes :•
-
"I have a patient suffering from
pulmonary tuberculosis, who has been
laid off work for about three months
now -was in bed part of that time, but
latterly both his pulse and temperature
have keptdown and his weightgoing
i
up. He s the only support of the
family -mother, crippled father, and
younger brother, but his neighbors are
trying • to raisea small amount of
money to help -bin)."
We have sometimes thought that if
Ian MacLaren, who has given to us the
character of Dr. McClure, were alive
to -day that in letter's such as these he
would find material for a book more
touching and pathetic' in many parts
than his Bonnie. Briar Bush.
It is on behalf of cases like these, of
which there are scores reaching the
Secretary of the Sanatorium every
week, that the Muskoka Free Hospital
for Consumptives makes its appeal
to-dayfor funds.
Thiinstitution has not atany time,
since its doors were first_ opened in
April, 1902, refused a single patient
because of the applicant being unable
to pay.
Contributions may be sent to Mr. W.
J. Gage, 84Spadina Ave., Chairman of
the F'xeoutive Committee, or to J. S.
Robertson, Secretary -Treasurer of the
National Sanitarium Association, 347
