A COLD
Settled On Her Lungs
g
Causing Great Pain.
THE CURE WAS
DR. WOOD'S
Norway Pine Syrup.
Miss D. M. Pickering, St. Catharines,
.iOnt., writes: Having derived great
'benefit from Dr. Wood's Norway Pine
.Syrup, 1 thought I would write and tell
'you of my experience. 'When 1 first came
smut from England I contracted a severe
roid, owing to the change of climate.
t settled on my lungs, and caused me a
ytDemt deal of pain. I tried every remedy
ttI could think of, but got no relief. My
iasther, who had heard a great deal about
lthe good qualities of Dr, Wood's Norway
.Pine Syrup, advised me to try it. I did
UO, and 3 am pleased to say, found im-
litisediate relief: I only took one bottle
and it cured me completely. My mother
lead a severe cold also, and Dr. Wood's
Norway Pine Syrup cured her, so we
i never fail to keep a bottle of it in the
4lhouse."

" reAIN or no gain the cause before the farmers of Canada is as clear as'it was' last
l -A year -they must produce abundantly in order to meet the demands that may
be made, and I believe this to be especially true in regard to live stock„ theworld's
supply of which must be particularly affected in this vast struggle." --HUN.
MARTIN BURRELL, Minister of Agriculture.
THE FOLLOWING STATEMENTS ARE BA,4ED ON REPORTS CONTAINED IN
" THE AGRICULTURAL WAR BOOK, 1916," PUBLISHED BY THE
DEPARTMENT OF AGRICULTURE, OTTAWA, ONT.
LIVE STOCK-The'herds and flocks of Europe
have been greatly reduced. When the war is over
there will be a great demand for breeding stock.
Canadian farmers should keep this in mind.
MEATS -In 191.5 Great Britain imported 664,508
tons of beef, mutton and iamb, of which 364,245
tons came from without the Empire., Out of
430,420 tons of beef only 104,967 tons came from
within the Empire.
The demands of the Allies for frozen beef,
canned beef; bacon and hams}will increase 'rather
than diminish. Orders are ariming to Canada.
The decreasing, tonnage spas available will give
Canada an advantage if we lave the supplies.
DAIRYING -Home consumption of milk, buten,
and cheese has increased of late years. The war
demands for cheese have been unlimited, The
Canadian cheese exports from Montreal in 1916
were nearly $6,500,000 over 1914. Prices at
Montreal -Cheese :. ,January 1915, 155.4 to 17
cents ; January 1916, 18% to 18% cents,
Butter: January 1915, 24 to 28% cents;
January 1916, 32 to 33 cents. ,
EGGS --Canada produced '$30,000,000 worth of'
eggs in 1915 and helped out Great Britain in the
shortage. Shippers as well as producers have a
duty and an opportunity in holding a place in
that market.
WRITE TO THE DOMIfVION DEPARTMENT OF AGRICULTURE AND TO YOUR
PROVINCIAL DEPARTMENT FOR BULLETINS ON THESE SUBJECTS
Tens of thousands of Canpda's food producers have enlisted and gone to the front. I.t is only fair to them
that their home work shall be kept up as far as possible. The Empire needs all the food that we can produce
in 1916.
