Such an expenditure in such a cause proves a great spirit. It is something to be citizens of such an Empire. Not Good for Milk Cows or Other Stock Dear ,Editor, -Would you allow me a little space in your paper this week 7 I came through Goderich township to the second of Stanley the other day and when crossing the river bridge I noticed an unpleasant odor coming from under the bridge.. On investigating I found about half a dozed dead hens which had been thrown into a pond of water.. As tete river was not running, and there were only a few places for the stock to drink the cows and horses were drinking this water with the decay- ing fowl lying in it. I noticed also that above thebridge there had been dumped a load of stove pipes, sal- mon cans, and other cans too num- erous to mention. Nearly all the farmers have their pasture fields along the river and when the freshet comes it washes these cans and rubbish over the pasture lands, • whichis very dangerous as the stock will lick these rusty tins. A hint to the wise, it is said, is suf- ficient. Yours, -"Live and Let Live." Jottings of Interest from A Self-styled "Old Hayseed" The following is another letter from Mr. Jas. Stevens, who is vis- iting relatives, in South Davota and who is getting about and seeing the country in .spite of his fourscore years : Dear Sir, -I have been froni flfteen to twenty Miles in every direction from Aberdeen and find land` and crops just fine. Four or five miles outside the city land averages Iron $80, advancing as it nears the city. We had rain today, first I have seen since . I came here. Hard coal is scarce here, but lots of soft coal. I asked the freight agent how. many tons in a. pile I saw and he said there were 90,000. The same rail- way, Chicago, St. Paul and Minnea- polis, have lots of large piles around besides- The city is looked after by a mayor and five commissioners. I wont tell _ their salaries. Each commissioner has his department to - look after. The orty publie Ua htuld p ings are first class. The public, or what we would call ward schools, are of brick, nearly new, modern in every way, its large buildings, dormitory or Lincoln hall, its ad- ministers' buildings for teaching ev- erything that is useful to help boys and girls to be what they ought •to he. The dormitory, one for boys and' another entirely for girls out of reach of city. They are here looked after, I am told, very carefully by night and day. These buildings are firstclass e.very way with many oth- er buildings needed. On the north side is the High school, also a fine building. I have forgotten the number of students attending those higher branches of education. The courthouse, municipal buildings, post office, are all complete. The most infertbr public building I saw was the jail. In this new city -there are 10 religious sects. I think the M,E, . Methodist Church is nicest in appearance and accomodation, cost $.10,000, Its organ cost .$5,000. the gift of one lady. For myself I attend the M, E. generally, but have been to.' the Wesley Methodist, also to the Presbyterian and the Chris- tian, The streets, its front and sev- eral eweral cross streets are paved with pre- pared wood blocks and are splendid and clean. I think I have picked up more friends willing to show only kindness than I ever met before among strangers. -JAS. STEVENS, m RECIPES Take a word or two of kindness, Season Well with some good deed, Add 'of charity a plenty, And of lope a generous mood ; And if you would mold them rightly Which may be no easy thing, You will find you have a dainty Fit to serve to any King, 'lake a brimming pint of patience, And of faith an equal share, Stir them thoroughly together In the. crystal bows of prayer; Mix with these a clip of wisdom, And a dash of self-control, And 'ids yours to quench the er?cving Of a famished ]human soul; Take Of happiness full measure, From the Granary above, Knead the whole with inspiration, Leaven with abiding lova ; And some day you may be able '1'o supply Shut gentletteart, Ml the bread that is required By one hunger -stricken heart. •Itnlpli Metlfven Thomson, 1n the ITuntanitariafi, A Friend in Need The Pandora a ra isyour RangeeI' & friend on wash. day.

Mills can pay the top price where the elevators cannot as they have to sell to the mills at the same price as the mills pay the farmer for his wheat. I do not sell any. bran or shorts only what I make myself. It is clean and wholesome as there is no dirt ground in with them.
