There are many people at the present time whose nerves are unstrung, heart affected, and general health impaired. To such we offer Milburn's Heart and Nerve Pills as the beat remedy that science has produced for such troubles. These pills have a wonderful effect on the nerve cells of the body, giving them new life and energy; they strengthen and regu- late the heart and make the blood rtch and nourishing. Mr. Joseph Daly, Wolfe Island, Ont., writes:—"I have used I.Vttlburn's Heart and Nerve Pills. I was a regular nervous wreck from my bettrt and nerves. I saw your advertisement in the paper and decided to try your pills. I took five boxes of them, and now I nm as steady as a clock.

Mr, Fletcher has spent forty years in Huron 'County, Ontario, ministering I to a prosperous farming community in the southern portion of tl county. In connection with his long association with the neighborhood he has the remarkable record of hav- ing known one fancily through ' six generations, When he told this story at a Sunday School one small 'girl ventuyed the remark that he oust be 150 years oldl The doctor, however is a good deal younger and looks in excellent health He is particularly glad to renew acquaintances with Mr. McCloy, both of whoni.being ordained in 1379. In fact it is the anniversary of the Knox church pastor which was celebrated, The Victoria paper refers to Dr. Fletcher in another issue as follows: "Rev. Dr, Colin Fletcher travelled from Toronto to be with his old and beloved friend, the pastor, at the cele- bration of the anniversary, Friends they have been since their college days; and. when student days were Over, they were examined together by the Presbytery of Huron on Feb- ruary 3rd, 1879, and on the same day Mr. McCloy was ordained to the ministry, Seventeen days later Dr. Fletcher was ordained, and inducted into the charge of Thames Road con- gregation in the sante Presbytery. Dr, Fletcher preached excellent ser- mons to large congregations on. Sun- day morning and evening. These were particularly appropriate, the subject of the morning being "The Christain's Heritage,” and of the evening being "The Pre-eminence of Christ."

CET ON LAND EARLY The Dales to Plant for Heaviest Yields.' To Make Most Money Prom Wool Shearing must Be Done Properly and Wool Flaltdled Carefully— A p'e1v Hints Which Have Saved Darters Dollars. (Contributed by Ontario Department of Agriculture, Toronto.) HERE is 'a best time to sow each class of farm crops to secure the highest returns, It fa difficult, however,' to know which are the most favorable dates for the best returns of the dif- ferent crops in all seasons. The re- sults of experiments conducted over a series of years form a good gen- eral guide. Some crops give best re- sults from later aeedings, Seasons vary so much that in some years the grains are practically all sown by the dates at which it is only possible to start sowing in other years. It is of the utmost importance, however, to start cultivating the land as early as it is dry enough to work to good ad- vantage. The first cultivations should take place for those crops which should be first sown, In this connect tion it is interesting to study the re- sults of an experiment. which was conducted in each of five years at the Ontario Agricultural College. Spring wheat, barley, oats and peas were sown on each of six dates. One week ,was allowed between each two dates. The experiment was conduct- ed in duplicate by sowing with the grain drill and broadcaseby hand in each instance. The following table gives the average results for the ten tests in the five-year period: Bushels of Grain Per Acre. Spring Bar - Seedlings. Wheat. ley. Oats. Peas. lst 21.9 46.2 75.2 25,4 2nd 19.2 45.9 76,0 28.8 3rd 15.4 39.8 64.2 28.6 4th 13.0 37.1 65.8 25-5 5th 8.4 27.6 45.2 21.0 6th 6.7 18.4 '7.0 19.5 It will be saen that the spring wheat gives dee%idedly the best re- turns from the first date of seeding. There is not mush difference between the first two aeedings of barley and oats, but there is a slight advantage from the first date in the case of bar- ley and from the second date in the case of oats. • The peas, however, gave the highest returns from the second and third dates, and even the fourth gave a higher average yield than the first date. After the first week was past there was an average decrease per acre for each day's de- lay as the season advanced of 27 pounds of spring wheat, 47 pounds of barley, 48 pounds of oats, and 20 pounds of peas. These -esutts are of special inter- est and are worthy of careful atten- tion at this particular time. Sheep Shearing. Shearing and Tying the Fleece,-- ShearIng should only be carried on under the most favorable conditions; upon 'bright, warm sunshiny days when the sheep are dry of fleece and the wool has "risen" somewhat from the body. Cleanliness and care in the removal of all fleeces is very es- sential and the shearing floor should be swept after each fleece has been removed and tied. This will elim- inate a great deal of foreign matter which, although it may add weight, does so at the expense of quality. Dung Locks or Tags.—It•will be noticed with many fleeces that there are certain hard dung locks or tags adhering to the britch ends. These contain a great deal of moiature and If left on and rolled into the fleece produce a damp heavy condition that means a higher shrinkage and hence less value. They should, whenever present, . bo snipped off with the shears before the sheep is shorn or else pulled oft by hand after the fleece is spread out for rolling. They can very easily be packed and shipped separately, bringing more money this way than if left upon the fleece. The same is true of all paint clotted looks as well. Rolling the Fleece.—Spread the fleece out on the floor, being careful not to pull it apart and with the flesh side down. Then fold the belly wool and both sides in until your fleece re- presents a strip about 18 inches wide. Starting at the tail end, roll tightly toward the neck, thus leavingdathe shoulder wool, which is always the superior portion, on the outside of the roll, The grader always estimates the grade by the appearance and quality of this wool over the shoulder and heart -girth, that over rite hind- Vquarters usually running a grade or ivo Power, Tying the li ieece.—]laving rolled tightly, tie both ways with the spe- cial paper twine supplied by the De- partment. Never under any consider- ation use binder twine ap the fibres become attached to the wool and fol- low right through into the cloth where they always show up quite prominently, Many mills have refus- ed to have anything Whatever to do with clips that have been tied with binder twine. If the paper twine, is not available use any stout caord other than binder twine. Tie each fleece separately, never tying two or three together in the same bundle, Furthermore, avoid as much as pos- sible the shipping of loose wool. If you have two or three different breeds of sheep, possibly a grade flock and a pure-bred flock, it is wise to keep the wool from each breed Separate and pack it so.—Dl'eetor R. W. Wade, B.S.A„ Ontario Depart- ment' of Agriculture. A number of varieties of beans are in cultivation, but to meet, the present demand the Small White Pea bean' is particularly suitable. Care should be exercised in securing welt matured geed of strong vitality as many of the beans grown last year are unsuitable for planting.
