What I 'said about yo'r swamp owl bill
was entirely without malice and alto-
gether in the way of jocularity. I halm
a reputation for jocularity to student,

by all other breeders that oats in some
form Is tbe best possible feed to devel-
op the colt, calf, lamb or pig, but these
all have grinders, so in feeding oats to
poultry to get best results they must
• be soaked or boiled, and if in addition
to this a liberal amount of good grit is
furnished you will find oats an ideal

also an excellent egg producer. Try

Dear Sir,—I fell in with a case to -day
in my parish, a young woman very ill
with consumption and I promised I
would write you regarding her entrance
into the hospital for consumptives in
Muskoka. The case is one of great neces-
sity and charity. The applicant is about
18 years of ago. She is practically with-
out a home, staying at present with a
relative. She is bright and amiable and
would like to live. As I nnderstand:you
reject none en account of poverty, I
commend the ,case to you -as one most
needy, and if yterean send. me Destruc-
tions or papers for application to the
hospital, I will see to raising necessary
means for her transportatimr and have
her sent at once, as I imagine she is not
beyond receiving benefit. .

My Dear Mr. Gage,L--• •
I haeo much pleasure in onolosing herewith thoque, for Ono Hundred
fintlars (stoo.bo) from the Tudhope Carriage Company of Orillia, a donation
to the Free Irospital for • Conautnptiees at.Gravenhurat. Please' acknowledge

I have written to a timber of my friends, to try and get theta interested
in this good work. *I hope to be -able to send you further donations. I have
written my friends a personal letter, Something similar to the following:
"Last week t paid 0: visit to We Free tlespital for Consump-
tives at, flraVenhutsts Intel somo of the management there, and
• promised to try and intereat some of My friends in this work.
' "I might say there were 41) patients there kat week, all poor 1‘
people, most of thom without a dollar in the world, and suffering
from the dpeadful 'disease, Consumption. There are Many sad
stories, and "know 1 have thought a great deal alloat thework of
the institution ever since my vent, there. I do believe 11 is worthy
of Desistance, and we who have health itod the necessaries of life
should encourage this work along. .
• "I understand the expenses letely have been double the
income, and unless the management meet with more encourage-
ment, I am afraid the work will have to be eurtailed. I knew you
• have many oalls, but 1 do wish you Would give this tnatter a
thought, atia, if possible, asstd. I have written to two or three
confidentially, and hope to bo able to collect some more fer this
• work. Should you not feel like contributing a donation, remem-
ber this request, and your reply is just between you and mo, and
'strictly confidential.
"1 might mention, to show that I have confidence in the
work, I have already given a donation of $1.00.00 and two row
boats to the Pro Ilospital this year, and intend to give another
1100.00 before the end of the year."
