-.TRENCH ASCENDANCY" CRY
The Ottawa Journal, hitherto sup-
porting the Conservative party, after
,discussing the racial and religicus
•complexion of the new Cabinet, bas
the following editorial utterance on
the subject: "Effort in some quarters
where there ought to have been more
sense if not magnanimity, has been
made to rise the cry of French ascend-
ancy, the cey that Quebec has triumph-
ed, that French and Catholic influence
dominates the country. In answer to
this it is well worth stating the exact
position of affairs. And theexactposi-
tion Uf affairs is: That in the new
Liberal Government of Canada under
a French Catholic Premier there is in
proportion to the size of the Cabinet a
smaller French and a smaller Catholic
representation than in any previous
Government since Confederation, 30
Years ago, and a representation far less
than the Catholic people of the Domin-
ion are entitled to in proportion to
their numbers. He would be a fool or
worse who would say this in either
malice or triumph; we say it to cnn-
demn the cry that has been raised of
French Canadian domination. The
Catholics of Canada' are two millions
in five—2 souls out of every 5 among
us—and they hold now three Cabinet
portfolios out of fourteen in Mr. Laur-
ier's gift. Such is the outcome of the
'Quebec victory.' Such is the disposi-
tion made by a French-Canadian
Premier; such is the self -suppression
of the Province which, out of tis repre-
sentatives, sent 46 to support the Lib-
eral party on June 23. Surely this is
one of the most remarkable instances
,on record of the truth of the story of
Esop's which Mr. Laurier used in one
of his speeches in Parliament, that
sunshine will conquer a man quicker
than storm. In the sunshine of Mr.
Laurier's victory there is hardly a
growl from French Canada at a situa-
tion which, if threatened ny an enemy,
would stir the province to fury."

The peat generally first appears in
meadows and pastures, and if discover-
ed here it can be checked by digging a
ditch around the field, and the worms
will,fall into the ditches, and are un -
atria to crawl out. If the pest has eom-
,menced to spread, the best rbothod is
surround the fields in the line of march
with a ditch, the same as to prevent
'their spreading. At intervals in this
ditch holes are dug, and the worms
"crawling along the bottom of the ditch
•fall into these holes. In this way bush-
els of these army worms have been
destroyed. Where practicable, as
in the case of corn fields, the plants
may be sprayed with a strong Paris
green mixture, and the pest checked in
this way. If an army of worms has al -
Ready attacked a field it is usually im-
possible to save it, but the worms may
.be prevented from spreading furthur.
'The importance of knowing what to do
,and doing it, may be estimated from
;the fact that when such an army of
.caterpillars is on the march, it will of-
ten consume an acre of corn or other
.crop in one day. Nature herself is now
-aiding in the destruction of this pest,
,dor most of the worms this year have
on their back small white eggs, from
which hatch small white maggots,
vphich furrow into the worms andel sap
their life. The worms, not living long
enough to become moths, can leave no

minate ex elf. will in time

in well-informed circles regarding the

was to award the contract for supply-

for a term of five years. Another was
to award the contract for supplying
clothingto the Northwest Mounted
Police fr three years. There was also
a scheme to superannuate four of the
judges in Montreal and fill their places
with comparatively young men, but
this fell through because three out of
the fourjudges mentioned would not
consent. The whole idea in these
transactions was to tie the hands of

NOVEL HEADACHE ODE,' ;
The latest "cure" suggested for the
relief of headaches is a hair cut, A
certain physician of London has met
with groat success lately in his treat-
ment of persistent cases of "nervous"
headaches, and be•has disclosed the se-
cret,
In each case. he says, after the pat-
ient has laid bare a long tale of woe
—of sleepless nights and miserable
days—he prescribed briefly a simple
hair cut. Itis not neceesary that the
hair should be cropped off short, after
the fashion of convicts.
The curative property of the treat-
ment le based on the fact that the tube
which is contained in each single hair
is severed in the process, and the brain
"bleeds," as the bavbere say, thereby
opening a safety valve for the congest-
ed cranium. A commentor in the Lon-
don society press in referring to thio
cure says:
"Try the cure when next attacked by
headache, and if the result be not satis-
factory rest assured that It le not the
fault of the prescription, but that the
head is so wooden that it wouldn't act.

A funeral and a wedding from one
house on the same day is something
rare. Mrs Thos. Roy, Ottawa, died on

returned to Ottawa to die. Mrs Roy
left an adopted daughter, Miss Lily
Btiden, and in her anxiety that the
young lady should be looked after Mrs
Roy made the girl heir to her property

ried within 24 hours after her f oster-

MIXED FARMING.
Mixed husbandry has brought untold
blessings to our country. There is no
other farming that will long stand the
test with the rank and file in any
country. One line af farming may do
in a new country, but it comes to an
end. One requires to go west to see
the folly of clinging to the one -crop
system. Many men grew rich by rais-
ing wheat when the land was new and
, good, and then they grew poor again
1 when the soil became worn and pi ices
fell. The one crop farmer comes to be
a ; narrow-gauge man in his views of
farming. He gets into a rut, and can-
not apparently get out of it. With
him the thing that has been is that
which shall be. The man who grows
a variety of crops from the soil, and a
variety of products from the crops
which he has grown, soon gets ready
for any emergency. i; Ie has some crops
that yield well in almost any season.
There are some products that bring a
fair price though the times are depress-
ed, and there is always a fair living for
the farmer and his family even in ad-
verse seasons. The one line farmer
may some time find a spring -tide, but
t he next season he is likely to find an
ebb- tide, and he finds himself some-
times in "good" luck and some times
litgh"Trnnil.er Red weed Tr..sR 9P t in "hard" luck. The man who diver-

n
pearaos of this bridge is its egorspons
height- The center span crosses k
ninety feet above the water.
It is not known who the engineers
were that built the bridge, nor Jnilliwhat
facilities they had for doing the work.
The structure was put up about 1868 and
has remained in oonstant ase ever shoe.
It 1s Was the stages do not cross it new,
but foot passengers and smaller vehl

the forests about 'fifteen `-itirilcl,Wa .

something past finding out, as there 1a

members when the bridge was pub up,
And, indeed, it looks as if the job would
puzzle an engineer of to day, even
though he were given the use of all mod-
ern appliances, which the others did not
have.
In all there are seventy upright sup-
ports in the bridge and they must have
been stood on end entirely by the use of
ropes, pulleys and muscles Those In
the oenter of the bridge are the highest
and the others get shorter and shorter as
they climb the bank on either side. Very
few braces are used, so that the bridge
presents the appearance of a series of
straight poles r'aehing across the ra-
vine. The country in this vicinity is
picturesque and wild and the bridge does
not look the least bit out of place. In
fact, it rather blends into the landscape.

Mr Joseph Brown, V.S. died in St.
Joseph's Hospital, Gueip'h, Tuesday
evening from anthrax poisoning Some
time ago a cow took sick and died. Dr
Brown made a post-mortem, and took
in a portion of the spleen and liver
with him for analysis, fully confident
that the animal died from anthrax.
He preserved the portions. A week
ago Monday he, in company with a
few others, went fishing to Hillsburg.
While fishing a hook caught him near
the second joint of the second finger of
his left hand. The next day he was
handling the intestines, and was war
ed to be careful and wash his hapsi
which he did in a careless manner. n
Wednesday he was taken ill and par-
tially laid up, but thought nothing of
the matter. On Monday he was up
and walking and driving around, but
next morning about two o'clock he
teas taken very ill, and again became
delirious, and two physicians were
summoned. He was taken to the hos-
pital about four o'clock. He was very
violent, and for a time it took four
men to handle him. He was more or
less unconscious until death ended his
sufferings.
