already ]oohed over the ground and
made a .preliminary report,
Two pians suggested themselves
from the lay of the land. At latter-
toum, as we know, the , two great
branches of the Nile meet ono the
Bahr -el Asrak, the Blue or Dark
Nile, coming from Abyssinia, laden
.with the earthy deposits that have
fertilized lower Egypt since elan has
had n history, the other the Bahr-el-
Abiad, the White or Clear Nile,
formed by many branches, chief
among them the Bahr -el -Gebel, flow-
ing from the Victoria Nyanza and
Uganda in the south, tapping the
Albert Nyanza, and the Bahr -el -
Ghazal, with its numerous tributar-
ies from the west. IL fs possible to
dam up either of the two main
branches, the Blue Nile at Lake
Tsana in Abyssinia, the White NIle
at Lake Victoria or Lake Albert.
Both projects present certain politi-
cal as well as practical dialcuities.
As regards the Victoria Nyanza dam,
the scheme that would appeal best
to the popular fancy, Sir William
Garstin offers strong objections. In
the first place the lake is partly in
German territory, which would give
rise to international complications ;
in the second place equal advantages
would be obtained by making use of
the Albert Nyanza as a storage re-
servoir instead. But to the dam-
ming of Victoria or Albert alike,
and to the utility of the 1Vhite Nile
for this purpose, the most serious
objection is the slight fall of the

Lake Albert and Khartoum, a dis-

DAIRY PJi3)DING AND BREEDING.
Vicat farriers are keeping cows
which lrardly pay for their feed, Ex-
perience has shown that the common'
cow may be nude to produce very
profltably, Prof T. L. Homelier of
Minneapolis experimental station
says that in all experiment wlth'cows
AO better than the average, all the
cows yielded ag grosss income o

$4,4 G3 with butter at ivc per n�.
The cost of food was $30,14 per head
leaving a profit of Striate, At Mich-
igan experimental station a bunch of
30 cows bought from farmers in
that state made a net proflt of $29:7.
This difference is wholly duo to a
A better supply of water may he
procured by embanking the Bahr -el -
Gebel, by improving other water
courses and by draining the lands
in the swampy district where the
Nile has so long been blocked by
the sudd. This Sir William thinks
should be undertaken at all events,
apart from its value to Egypt, as
it will secure communication by
weans of the Nilo with the great
lakes, but for the Soudan west of
the Nile and south of Khartoum ho
does not believe irrigation works
will be needed for a long time, until
the country is much more thickly
populated and better means of com-
munication have been established.
With the . Blue Nile it is a difTerent
story. From Lake Tsana to Khar-
toum, a distance of 800 miles, the
stream falls mare than 8,300 feet,
passing within the Sudanese border
through hundreds of miles of fertile
land that only needs irrigation to
become as productive as any in the
world. The altitude of the reservoir
would be all that could be desired
and the water could be applied to
that part of the Soudan where it
was most needed. The lake, how-
ever, is In the heart of Abyssinia,
and the political difficulty arises of
securing King Menelolc's consent and
persuading him that no nsbeme of
aggression or of conquest on Eng-
land's
ngland's port is concealed behind an
engineering and commercial enter-
prise. If the Negus can be brought
to consent, Sir William is of opinion
that the damming of the Blue Nile
at Lake Tsana should be undertaken.
It is remarkable that in this re-
port to Parliament neither Lord
Cromer nor Sir William Garstin
thinks it worth while to speak of
engineering difficulties or of flnahntal
problems, It is, to be sure, merely
a, preliminary report, but it is char-
acteristic of the twentieth century
that the engineer has no doubt of
putting through the gigantic task,
if the political hindrances axe re-
moved, nor the administrator of

GROWING GIRLS,
OCCASIONALLY REQUIRE A
TONIC MEDICINE.
It Will Keep the Blood Rich, Red
and Pure, Strengthen the
Nerves and Prevent Decline
Mrs. Iliram Milkier, the wife of a
respected farmer in South Pelham
township, Welland county, Ontarlo,
says :—'It is with great pleasure
that I give this tribute to the health
restoring virtues of Dr. Williams'
Pink Pills. When any daughter Lena,
(now thirteen years of ago), began
the use of your mcdiciue, a little
over a year ago, she was in a most
w-. etched condition. In fact we were
seriously alarmed lest she might not
recover. The first symptoms were a
feeling of languor and weakness,
gradually growing worse. She be-
came pale, lost flesh, had little or no
appetite and was apparently going
into a decline. Finally the trouble
became complicated with a persistent
sore throat, which gave her great
difficulty in swallowing. I gave her
severaladvertised medicines, but
they did not benefit her. Then she
was placed under the care of a doc-
tor, who said her blood was poor
and watery, and her whole system
badly rust down. The doctor's treat-
ment slid not help her any, and then
acting on the advice of a neighbor, I
began to give her Dr. Williams' Pink
PiIls. The confidence with which this
medicine was urged upon its was not
misplaced, as I soon noticed a dis-
tinct improvement in my daughter's
condition. The use of the pills for a
few weeks longer seemed to complete-
ly restore her, and from that time
she has been a cheerful, light-hearted
girl, the very picture of health. I
will always reconmmend Dr Williams'
Pink Pills to other sufferers, feeling
sure they will prove quite as effica-
cious as they did in my daughter's
ease,"
Mothers with growing daughters
will make no mistake if they insist
upon the occasional use of Dr. Wil-
liams' Pink Pills ; they will help
r properly •
them to develop grope ,Y , will
make their blood rich and pure, and
thus ward off disease and decline.
The genuine pills are sold only in
boxes bearing the full name, "Dr.
Williams' Pink Pills for Pale Peo-
ple" on the wrapper around each
box. None other is genuine, no mat-
ter what some self-interested dealer
may say. If in doubt, send direct
to the Dr, Williams' Medicine Co.,
Brockville, Ont., and the pills will
be mailed post paid at 50 cents a
box, or six boxes for 82•50.

POULTRY NOTES.
A little oil meal or linseed cake
pulverized given to the moulting
hens will help them through this try-
ing ordeal.
As tiro chicks become half grown ,
and bigger do not allow them to
crowd into the coop that teas only
large enough for them a month ago.
The fall raids will soon be hero
which will maim Relied Ior the young
chicks and moulting hens that aro
roosting out of doors. Better get
them into the houses they are to oc-
cupy this winter now while the wee- r
ther is fine.
See that the houses end yards in
which fowls are to be kept this win-'
ter are free from vermin of all kinds
now. It is much easier to get them
out now than after they have gone
into winter quarters. Kerosene, hot
whitewash and sulphur fumes are
good vermin destroyers.
To rid the poultry house of vermin
clean out all old nest material and
burn it, then go over the nest boxes,
the Perches and all cracks in the
walls of the building with a dose of
kerosene, using the common lamp
filler can. Oil is cheap and penetrat-
ing so do not be afraid of using a
gallon or so where it will do the
most good.
Provide a good supply of dry earth
for dust bath purposes this winter—
do it before the fall rains come on.
If you have no ,room to store it or
do not care to take the time and la'
hor to do it, go out and get a wagon
load end shovel it in the hen house.
The fowls will sec to it that it is
made use of.
If your farm or hen yard is short
of a gravel knoll get in a supply
before winter sets in, when 110 hen
can grind without the materials fur-
nished her. It is time all surplus
cockerels were disposed of. They
will never sell for as much as old
roosters as spring chickens.
To keep the turkeys parching right
on toward their best at Thanksgiv-
ing time, see that they have a feed
of grain when they come up at
night after their day's work of de-
stroying grasshoppers and other in-
sects. A varied diet or balanced ra-
tion is better than a feed all of one
Idnd even for turkeys who "will pick
up their own living after harvest."
Do not feed the pullets you expect
to ]ay the winter eggs the same ra-
tion you would do the hens you are
fattening for market.

Nothing in the world is such a

babies can bo kept in perfect health
only by 'having at hand and adminis-
tering when needed some purely veg-
etable, harmless remedy, and of all
this class of medicines Baby's Own
Tablets are conceded to be the best.
For constipation, colic, diarrhoea,
simple fevers, sour •stomachs, teeth-
ing babies, indigestion and.sleepless-

derful cure. You can .give them to
the smallest baby without the slight-

their action is prompt and pleasant.
They will tone up the whole system,
and make the little one as hearty
and free from infantile disorders as
any mother could wish.
Mrs. Waller Brown. Milby, Que.,

lack of knowledge of proper feeding
and care. Now, if they can take the
cows to some experimental station
and make profitable producers of

selves? There is no patent on their
method.
The feeding of the dairy cow be-
gins the day it is born. The little
calf should be fed a ration that will
keep it growing and thrifty but not
one that will put on much fat. When
about two weeks old begin giving a
little clover hay and a little wheat
bran dry; begin early to feed a large
amount of roughage so as to enlarge
the digestive organs. The calf
should be so fed that when she be-
comes a cow the food she eats will
be used in the production of mills
rather than fat. It takes a certain
amount of food to sustain life and
the return wo get is from the food
she oats hove what is necessary to
her maintenance, so it' pays to feed
liberally.
A BALANCE RATION

should be fed by all means.. Timothy
hay, corn, clover and corn meal
might be liberally feel and still the
cows be starving, so far as milk and
butter material were concerned.
Food containing protein is necessary.
The remainder of the ration may be
raised in abundance on the farm: and
some of the protein foods, but a
part of it must be bought in the
form of cottonseed meat gluton feed
and so on. A good ration is about
40 lbs. of silage, 4 lbs. wheat bran,
2 lbs cottonseed meal; the cotton.
seed meal contains about 1 Ib of
protein and the bran about a1'b. At
noon good clover hay -should be fed
A small teaspoonful of salt should
be given with the evening meal. But
suppose tilts ration is given and then
the cows turned out and allowed to
go to the creek and drink ice water
and stand around a straw steak all
day, no benefit would be derived, as
the feed would all bo consumed in
heating the body. The cow must
have a warm, light, well ventilated
where she may stand

or lie comfortably and contented,

What is done at this hospital can
be done at any private house. • All
that is necessary is to select a well -

growing flowers tri it as it will con-
veniently acconunodate. The ex-
pense is not great. it will be neces-
sary in winter to keep the tempera-

by the presence of plants in the

may bo specially mentioned :
