Mr. C.C. 131ackader, a Halifax, Nova Scotia, is the man. He is the proprietor of a newspaper °ailed the Acadian Record. He wan. -offered a Senatorship a few days ago, and has decTined, for pri ate and business reasons, it is said. - • • • The farmers of the Western $ ates are carrying the war right into Af- rica and have evidently decide to fight the. Trust devil with hie own fire, The stateinent is made that articles of incorporation have been filed with 'the Secretary of State for -the National Farmers' Exchange, with South Dakota headquarters at Pierre, and offices in Chicago, and a_ capital of $50,000,000. This carpet- ation has for its purpose co-opera- tion in the handling of all products of UIiI farms, or in other words a farmers* trust." The iocorpora- tors are 108V0.,. •Oklahoma and South Dakota men. Their experiment will be watched with much interest. • • • Mr. R. Holmes, M.P. writing' from Ottawa to the Clinton New Era_says: " Nt twitlistanding all the agitation there bee been concerning the use of intoxicants, and the hope enter- tained that we are yearly becoming a more temperate people, the report of the Minister of Inland Revenue, we are sorry to say, does not bear out this view. The quantity of spir- its prodtieed last year was 3,063.- 603 gallons, as against 3,324,147 gal- lons the previous year. 'Fortunate- ly all this was not for Immo con- sumption, some of it being export- ed. The consumption of spirit, per bead, last year, was .870 gallons, ,which is higher than for the previ- ous 1.3 years- The consump Lion of beer was 4.712 gallons per head. The • amount of tabacco consumed, per _bead, was 2.548 pounds, being a larg- er amount than at. any other time during the last thirty five years. Thee figures are not very encour- aging to advocates of abstinence. The excise revenue paid on spirits last 1.ear was $6,162,827 and paid on to- bacco $3,904,617." Although this is not as encouraging a etate of af- fairs as one might desire, the picture is scarcely as dark as it is painted. •The population has very consider- ably increased during the period raentioned, probably in proportion to the vonsumption of liquors. • * Speaking at a banquet in Montreal a few evenings ago,Mr. C.$. Hyman, of the Dominion Governmenterefer- ing to Britain's ability to consume all the wheat grown in Canada, Mr. Hyman said that the other day the Duke a Sutherland had told him that Great Britain had only six weeks' foo4 supply on hand, and that /as grace as chairman of the recent- ly forraed commission on food sup- ply, had been induced to come to Canada to take for himself a meas- urement of the _capacity of the Do7 minion. Figures were then given to show that Canada would in a few years more than satisfy the demands of the mother country. If this is the ease Britain is in about as rickety a position for her food supply as On- tario is for her supply of fuel. The principal difference, however,. is that Britain is depending iipon the free and untramelled producer while On- tario is wholly at the mercy and ea - price of a soulless trust who con- trol not only the whole anthracite coal supply but all the railways lead- ing from the coal mines and the leg- islating bodies of the 'United States as well. Britain can purchase her food SUpplies where she likes and there is the keenest competition for ber trade. Ontario can only procure leer fuel supplies from this one trust and there is no competition. They do with us as best suits themand regulate our supply so as to bleed us 'for all we can stand. The situa- tion is well nigh intolerable and un- til some substitute for coal is pro- cured our position is more likely to grow worse than better.

For several years no department of 'Agriculture has been more profita- ble than the growing and feeding's -of bogs. The demand has been active and growing and the prices remuner- ative. Our farmers readily adapted themselves to the necessities of the situation and produced the kind of material for which there was the best demand. As a result of this Ca- nadian bacon and pork obtained a reputation and a foothold • in the Beitish, market Which promised to ensure an almost unlimited dernand. In fact we had no real competitor there for the products of our pork curing establishments. According to - reports, however, this very satisfac- tory state of the trade is in danger of -being somewhat changed. It is said that within the last year or two Danish pork has been gradually growing in favor in tbe British Mar- ket and is proving a very strong - competitor with Canadian pork. The Statement is made that the killing of Danish hogs has gone up from 26,- 000 per week to 10,000 per week within the last year. This Danish • icampetition has already had an in- fluence on the markets here as prices ttave not been as buoyant nor the de- mand so brisk this last year as dur- ing several fox-rner years and some farmers are becoming discouraged and talk of allowing their herds to go down and turn (heir attention mere to some other branch of indus- try. This discouragement has been fed to a considerable degree by the pork packers themselves, who, per- haps have made moreeof the Danishi- competition than the facts justify. Notwithstanding this competition, -tliere should still, under ordinary circumstances, be a good inarket in 1the old country for the .Canadian pro- duct. The business, however, like every business, must be subject to - 3:ts ups and downs. Business of all kinds has been considerably depres- sed in the old country for the past year and no doubt the falling off in the, demand for the Canadian pro- duct is due as much to this fast as to the Danish competition. It would not be wise, therefore, for the Can - 1 • A little Sunlight. Soap will clean cut glass and other articles undl they shine and sparkle.

The man- ufacturers very I often cry out be- fore they are much hurt. It is a fact that the busines of pork packing has been even m re profitable than the business of ho growing. At any rate it is well known that many of 'those etegage.d ini the packing busi- ness have made arge fortunes in a comparatively f w years. Under the,se circumstan es it is just possi- ble that the Pae ers have not been as diligent in culOvating business as they were when Ithey were building up the trade. this is the case, matters will so4n right fhemselves again. Self intei1et will induce the packers to bestir themselves. On the whole the outloojk is, perhaps, more promising than spme are disposed to admit. So long jis a good article is produced, an arti le that will fill the conditions of the 'market, there will be a demand lo it. Any competi- tion that may ar se from other eoun- tries should n t discourage eitbpr packer or growe Most of the pro- duct of the Unit d States is consum- ed at home.

All druggists The Age of an and of the rldL feeding of the stabled horse which necessitates 'grooming. It is the work and the food, not the shelter, which constitutes the difference be- tween the domesticated animal and the herse in tbe state of nature. By work, and especially fast work, the secretions of the glands of the skin are largely increased. Nature must be assisted by artificial means to re- move these increased secretions, or the pores, of the skiu will become clogged and the health -will be de- teriorated greatly. The greater the action of the skin, the greater must .be the attention paid to it. As long as the horse remains in a state of I nature, taking only the exercise re- quired for gathering his food, and • feeding only on laxative diet,groom- ing is not needed, because the debris of the food and the extretions of • the system are carried off mainly by " the action of the bowels and kidneys. I Often men who have been driving or working horses, make a practice, if they get a chance, when bringing their horees home in a heated and fatigued state, to ride them through a pond or ford until the water reach- es the bellies of the animals. They are then brought into the stables, ' and a feedL.ttirown in front of them, and the hoses are often left in that state without anything more being done. Instead of that treatment the horses should not be allowed to wet their legs above the knees ; and after the harnese has been taken off, they should be Carefully rubbed down and Zeied from the ears to the fetlocks, . after which they may be fed. It fre- quently happens that farm horses are kept too icing at work without being fed, and !after a fast of this kind they are gorged. Hearty feeding af- ter a fast of this kind is very apt to bring on indigestion, colic, or in- flammatioi of the bowels. Many people appear to imagine that it is unnecessarly to groom farm horses regularly and thoroughly. This is a , very great mistake. Grooming is conducive to the health of the horse as well as to its outward eppeara.nee. Attention to this will tend to pre- vent many diseases, such as cold, bronchitis and affections of the lungs Lo which 1orses acre very liable when they have een left standing undried after comijig in heated and wet with perspiration or rain, or both at the same time; i Yours very truly, 0 s W.

Berry, our enterprisin horse importer, has made another important sale, ife_ has . disposed of that famous four- year-old Clydesdale stallion, " Dun- ragit," to Mr. David -Jaffrey, of Port Elgin. Thi horse is a very large an- imal, with extra wide, flat bone and an abunda ce of silky hair. For a horse of hie size he has a lot of qual- ity. It will be a loss to the breed- ers of this part to have anch a mag- nificent animal go away. But, on tlie other hand,it will be a great gain ,to the breeders ofihis new home. The Price paid for " Dunragit " was $2,- 200, Mr. Berry still owns a number of good stallions. Athongst the lot -is the good black horse, "Florizel,', coming siX years old.. When three and four years old this horse held 'the Argyle Tenantry Premium and at five year a old was selected for the Leimaha 'ow Prenaium.
