Experiments with Varieties of 'Winter Wheat AT THE AGRICULTURAL COLLEGE 1898 ONTARIO (Special Correspondence to NEw ERA) One hundred and thirty-eight varie- ties of winter wheat, have been grown in the Experimental Department of the Ontario Agricultural College with- in the past nine years. Seventy of these have been carefully tested for at least five years. The eight ver ieties which have given the highest yields of grain per act in the average of five years' experiments are as follows:— Weight Yield Varieties per bus per acre 5 years 5 years 'I Dawson's Golden Chaff. . 59,7 His 52 6 bus 2 .Early Genesee Giant 59.8 lbs 48.7 bus 3 Egyptian 60.6 lbs 48 6 bus 4 Imperial Amber 59 8 lbs 48 6 bus • 5 Early Red Clawson 58 0 lbs 48.5 bus 6 Reliable .. 61 2 lbs 48.0 bus 7 Golden Drop to.2 lhs 46 9 bus B.Eussian Amber 6'1.9lbs 46.7 bus Of these eight varieties, the follow- ing four gave the largest yields in I898: Dawson's Golden Chaff 49.2 bus.; Im- perial Amber 47 7 bug.; fteliithle 43 3 bus., and Early Genesee Giant 43.2hns. Among forty-four new varieties grown in 1898, the largest yields of grain were produced by the Gold Coin, White Golden Cross, Silver Dollar, Pedigree Genesee Giant and Oregon, and thAlfteaviest weights per measured 'EU by the Diamond Grit (65 8 lbs.), Mc -Pherson (65 5 lbs,); Arnold's Hybrid (652 lbs.); Andrew's No. 4, (65 lbs.); and Red May (65 lbs.) DISTRIBUTION OF SEED FOR TESTING PURPOSES The following three sets of winter wheat varieties will be sent free, by znail in one-half pound lots of each variety, to farmers applying for them, who will carefully test Lhe three kinds in the set which they choose, and will report the results after harvest next year. The seed will be -sent out in the order in which the applications are re- aleivedae long as the supply lasts. SET 1 Dawson's Golden Chaff, Early Gene - See Giant, Early Red Clawson. SET 2 Dawson's Golden Chaff, Imperial Am - bei., Golden Drop. SET 3 Dawson's Golden Chaff, Bearded Winter Fife, Stewart's Champion. Each person wishing one of these 'sets should apply as early as possible, 'mentioning which set he desires; and the grain, with instructions for test- ing, and the blank form on which to. report, will be furnished free of cost to 'his address, until the supply of grain for distribution is exhausted.

Prohibition Correspondence To the Editor of the New Era. DEAR Bra,—I am sorry that I am com- pelled to write again on the above subject, for if my letter had been treated in the or dinary way by your correspondent, name- ly, arguing the case on its merits, I would mot have written again, as I respect any one who endeavors to promote his sincere and honest convictions, no matter on which side he may be. However, Rfter the ridiculous manner in which Mr Bezzo pre- sented Principal Grant, Mr Kernighan and espeoially myself, in your issue of July 29, I cannot refrain from taking up my pen in self defence. In the first plane Mr Bezzo said that I accueed him of branding all anti -prohibi- tionists as anti•temperance people. Did he contradict this statement? Not at all, but rather gloried in the miserable and contemptible act which must have brought the blush of shame to the most ardent sup. porters of prohibition. It is true that the prohibitionists do not resort to the same ante of violen;e as the liquor men, but to my mind being slandered and misrepre- sented as I have been by Mr Bezzo is equally as bad if not worse, simply be- cause we do not agree as to the beat method of controlling the liqnor traffic. He further says:—"If Mr Marquis is a temperance man," eto. Nov, Mr Editor, I shrink from making any reference to myself whatever, but under the present circum- stances it is unavoidable. There are two wayb of furthering the temperance cause namely, by precept, and by example, As for precept, I will just refer to a place in Colborne called Bethel, where I had the honcr to preside over an adult Sunday School class, for the greater part of two years, and if he can find that I did not use my voice and influence in favor of temper- ance, and in the denunciation of the liquor traffic, I will then acknowledge my un- faithfulness to the temperance cause; my example has always been total abstinence, having yet to taste the first glass of intoxi- cating liquor. He also Bays : "It is but natural to associate them with the vile traffic which they are assisting to perpet- uate," and "If these anti -prohibitionists do not wish to be looked upou as frends of drunkenness," etc. Now, if it is natural for Mr Bezzo to make such misleading statements, I must admit he is more to be pitied than censured. Regarding the conclusive evidence which Mr Bezzo offers that prohibition does pro- hibit, I may say that if he thinks the peo- ple of this country will accept conclusive evidence from witnesses who make use of profane language, he has not set his esti- mate high enough. Again, I would like to know whet authority Mr Bezzo has for try- ing to make your readers believe th.t hav- ing liquor in their posseesion will land themselves in jail, since the government has not intimated wh it the penalties are to be. Coining to the last paragraph of Mr Bezzo's letter, it is evidently written with the intent to create prejudice against those intending to vote against prohibition on the coming plebieoite. The only point of logic noticeable is that we should not use our own judgment, but try to ascertain how the rumseller, the blear eyed rum drinker, the thief and robber will vote, and then vote opposite. By the way, the two latter do not use the franchise to any great extent, as they are kept pretty well locked up in this country. Concerning the perpetuation of intoxi- cating liquor among our neighbors and friends, I deny the charge. If this was to be the the first trial of a prohibitory law there might be some force in the argument, but since we have seen the Duncan Bill, Scott Act and Local Option all tried, and all proved failures, people should be in a good poeition to form their own opinions as to how prohibition will be enforced. In conclusion, if placing a prohibitory law on the statute books of the Dominion is a cure for all the evils that prohibitionists •claim, how was' it that when the late Government sent out their commission and took evi- dence ander oath, that out of six or eight ministers who gava evidence in the city of Toronto, all, with one exception, testified strongly against placing a prohibitory law on the statute books.

He may take his "tube" but if his digestive organs are out of order, he will have an unwholesome appearance. His complexion and the white of his eyes will have a yellowish cast.

We have tested local prohibition in ver - ions parts of Canada with the result, in the Maritime Provinces, at Ieaet, that where the Scott Actor other local prohibitory law hoe been adopted, it has generally remained. The State of Maine has retained a prohibi- tory law for nearly half a century. Some say it is a failure. Some pronounce it a stun ones. But the people of Maine, who are most interested in the matter, and whohave had power to act, have retained the system and will probably never give it up. Thie is the example that lies nearest Now Brune - wick, and will no doubt have its effect.—St. John (N.B.)'Sun,' Aug, 5.

CHINESE SHOES. iloet of Those (leen Here Come From Can- ton—Their Construction and Cost. The thick soled, white edged shoes seen upon the feet of the Chinamen in this city are all imported from China, most of them from Canton, where they are made by hand. The white edge is of a thick, rigid sole, made of a material resembling plas- tor, and if it becomes dirty can bo cleaned and whitened again. Some shoos have the wide white edge of this sole finished with a glazed or polished surface, which can be cleaned by rubbing it with a damp cloth. The bottom soles of these, shoes are made of a number of layers of rather thin loather placed one upon auother, making a built up solo. This sole is stitched through and through in many places on regular lines, giving the bottom of the sole a sort of quilted effect. This work is neatly and trimly done, even on the cheap shuts There are some Chinese shoes with- giut the characteristic think white edged {soles and provided with soles of leather oily The top of the Chinese shoe is of cloth or silk or satin and the lining of the same material. Velvet is often used on the top, cut in patterns that aro laid over the body of the shoe, which may be of silk or satin in some bright color, while the velvet may bo of black, proddci-ng picturesque and striking effects. Costly shoos aro made of fine materials and aro often richly em- b.oldered. Chinese shoes of the regular with the thick, white edged sole and e leather bottom sole and cloth top, may ibe bought for as little as $1 a pair. Hand- some Chinese shoes may be bought for $2 and upward a pair. Chinese shoes worn by persons of rank may be much more ex- pensive, costing for shoes worn with court dress from $20 to $50 and more.—New York Sun. A Severe Punishment. A Washington man who put in ten years of soldiering in the regular army of the United Status, five years of it on the fron- tier with the cavalry in Indian campaign- ing and the other five in the heavy artil- lery, was recently appointed a captain and assistant adjutant general in the volun- teer service, and he is now attached to the staff of General Milos. He is a man of ability and great unpretentiousness. A few days before he donned his uniform he went over to Fort McHenry, Baltimore, on official business. A war department clerk went along with him. When the two men arrived at Fort McHenry, the new captain pointed to a long shell road that runs through the post. "Do you see that road?" asked the cap- tain. "Yes." "Well, I made that whole road myself. It was as tough a job as I ever performed and as bitter a period, but it did Ina a heap of good. I was serving with an artil- lery regiment, part of which was stationed here, and one night when I was on guard the officer of the day crept up on me un- awares and found me sitting down on a pile of gunny Backs, neglecting my post. I got a general courtmartial forneglect of duty on post and was sentenced to six months in the guardhouse. My sentence tickled the old provost sergeant mightily, for he was In need of a steady prisoner to build that road. I built it and crunched many a million oyster shells building it. I never find myself feeling chesty and high and mighty, and all that sort of thing, that I don't shut my eyes and think of this shell road over in Fort McHenry. "-- Washington Star.

In Klondyke Butter is t$3 Per Pound and Cheap Cigars are 81 Bach A private letter recently received from Dawson City contains a good deal of interesting information. Among other things the author makes the statement, which is said to be well authenticated, that one man named McDonald, whose claim is situated on the Bonanza river, and whose wash up is not yet finished, had, at the time of writing, washed out two tons of gold, which was weighed out and stored in the Bank of Commerce building. Sev- eral other big strikes are reported, but a good many prospectors are strapped. As high as $15 a day is made by go d weighers, and luxuries run high, as for instance, 0110 dollar for a plug of tobac- co, a dollar for a cigar,three dollars for a pound of butter, one hundred dollars for a goat. Thirty nails were sold for 95, which proves that some necessities command big figures. No NIGHT THERE. When the letter was written, on June 17th, saw mills, building operations, dance halls, etc., were in full blast all night, as there was no darkness. The writer of the lel ter, P. Holliday, found much less lawlessness at Dawson City than at Dyea, Skagway and other American mining towns, and states the Mounted Police and miners do not go around loaded with revolvers as elsewhere. The part with which he travelled,y Messrs Willer Tranguay, report the Dyea route ato be the best for winter and the St. Mich- ael's for summer. However, they consider that unless one strikes it rich the trip is not worth the hardships to be encountered. Mon- ey and gold dust are flying around pretty freely at Dawson, but some mis- ery prevails, and there is grave danger of an epidemic of scurvey. At present there are several cases in the hospital.

Old people find themselves tired, listless, dyspeptic and lacking in strength.

In recommending Dr. Ward's Blood and Nerve Pills, and helping to bring thein before the public, I feel that I am truly helping my neighbors.

A prominent New York physician in discussing the merits of Ripans Tabules with a brother M. D. said : Several years ago I asserted that if one wished to become a philan. thopist, and do a beneficent deed— one that would help the whole hu- man race—nothing could be better than to procure the Roosevelt Hos- pital prescription, which is the basis eif the Ripans Tabules, and cause it to be put up in the form of a ketchup and distributed among the poor." Sales Increasing. The largest retail drug store in America is that of Hegeman & Co. on Broadway in New York City. A reporter who went there to learn how Ripans Tab- ules were selling bought a rawcent carton and asked: "Do you have much call for these?" He was referred to agentleman who proved to be the head of the depart- ment. He said : " The sale of Ripens Tabules is constant and is increasing, due. especially to the influential character of the testimonials in the daily press, and growing out of these, through the recommendation of friend to friend. Satisfaction with them is very general. When once they are begun I notice that a permanent customer for them is made, This, 1 believe, is through their intrinsic merit, which proves the bona fide character of the advertising. I think them specially useful in the general Yea of stomach troubles." An Elderly Lady. 0 An elderly lady living at Fordham Heights, a part of New York City, and who was known to be a w advocate of Ripans Tabules for ani cane of liver trouble of: indigestion, said to areporter who visited her for the purpose of learnin the particu- lars of her case; "I had always employed a physician and did soon the last occasion I had for one, but at that time obtained no beneficial results. I had never had any faith in patent medicines, but having seen Ripens Tabules recommended very highly in the New York Herald con- cluded to give them a trial, end found they were just what my epee demanded. I have never employed a physician since, and that means a saving of $2 a call. A dollar's worth of Ripens Tabules lasts me a month, and I would not be without them now if it were my last dollar." At the time of this inter- view there were present two daugh- ters who specially objected to their mother giving a testimonial which should parade h name in the newspapers, but to this the elder lady argued : "The may be other cases just like mine, and I am sure I take great pleasure in recommending the Tabules to any one afflicted as I was. 1f the telling about my case in the papers enables some other person similarly at:ected to be as greatly benefited as I have been, I see noobjectian." The daugh- ters, knowing bow earnestly she felt about the benefit she had received, decided she was quite right. ,('Ml?1I tyIC 'eoftlltntirgiser sees TA31tTtlte packed ins parer' eirtoii(w'Itnouigiaes)la now for tweet soa drug steres--ron viva carers _ Thte tow•prlccd Bort is intended for the poor and the economical.
