The Roach and Bridge committee of the Comity Council met the R. and 13. committee of the county of Perth in 11itchell on Tuesday, and the joint committee opened tenders for the two bridges, each 20x10 feet, on the boundary lime, and awarded the cement work for the two to Hems- worth & Co., of Ethel, at $4.25 per yard, and the superstructures to A. Hill & Co., of Mitchell, for $530 for the two. The committee thought that two more bridges, one 40 feet and the other 52 feet, were needed, and Engin- eer Ansley WAS instructed to have specifications made for these struc- tures, to be presented to the Councils at the Irmo aaessfons, [iflewiRem s -Grand Valley had at disastrous the last week, The mill %vas destroyed and the village had a close call, •--Mr. Wm.

For the past three months from thirty to for- ty teams have been employed in get- ting out this immense stock. — At Listowel on Tuesday night about ten o'clock, while some boys about fifteen years of age were out shooting muskrats along the river, one of the boys, Ross Grant, son of Mr. J. R. Grant, assignee, had his' left arm shot off below the elbow by the accidental discharge of a gun carried by one of his companions. — An unfortunate and as yet unex- plained accident occurred in Grand Valley on Monday evening when Miss Edith Singe, daughter of Mr. Robert Sime of East Luther, was shot through the leg. After attending the special meeting in Knox church, she walked down with Miss Mary Martin towards her home, when she met with the Accident. The shot came from the bridge over the river, and while there are strong suspicions which of the boys present held the re- volver at the time. Nervousness A Calamity.

Sudden changes in the calf's ration must be avoided, but changes should be made gradually. Silage has a greater feeding value than the sane forage would have if it were cured by drying in the field, be- cause it is more digestible. WVltert calves of different ages are fed together they can learn to eat grain when from 3 to 0 weeks old. In their best development they require all they will clean up twice a day. The man who pasteurizes his milk trust learn how t(> make good starters. He has killed the bacteria in the milk or cream, and new kinds must be brought in if be wishes to snake good butter. In producing at .high-grade cream the cows must be watched carefully, that there be no taint of disease. A daily milk recond is keptand a sudden dropping in the flow of milk is consid- ered an indication that something is wrong with the cow that needs at- tention. Stables must be kept free from dust and strong odors, The importance of regular milking hours equally spared in every twenty- four, was emphasized by Charles Graves at the recent dairymen's meet- ing, He found that although it wonld not pay the fanners to milk three tittles a day, the milk should be drawn every twelve hours for best results. The longer milk remains in the udder the less ..titter fat it will contain when drawn, 1.30 when the milking time is let run over time a few hours con- siderable is lost in quality; and this is not trade up alt the next milking, so that there is t10 way of regaining it, The richest milk, of course, is obtained by milking three times a Clay, but the increased per cent, of fart does not pay for thu ettti'r>V work, BEST DAIRY BREEDS, £ue do Q s n Often Asked, but Difficult to Ammer, What dairy breed of cows shall I choose? This is a question that is so often asked and, In a way, never an- swered, for It is Impossible for any one to state what breed of cattle Is the best for some other man to choose, says Hoard's Dairyman. 'There Is a personal factor which enters Into the choosing of all classes of things, cattle not ex- cepted. There are four distinct dairy breeds of cattle—namely, the Holstein, Jersey, Guernsey and Ayrshire—and good Bows can be selected from any of these breeds. It should be borne in mind that It is not alone the breed that makes good dairy cows, but judicious selection and breeding of the individual animals are equally necessary, In other words, the pure breds must be selected and culled if a strong, vigorous, large producing and profitable herd Is to be maintained and developed. It is not enough to say that an animal is a pure bred, but it Is quite as important to add what she is capable of doing. Each dairy breed at cattle has its pe- culiar characteristics, and before a per- son chooses any one of the breeds he should study the temperament, disposi- tion and chief characteristics of each one. There are very few• men who have studied carefully the different traits of the dairy breeds who have not formed a personal preference, and in most cases would not be satisfied with any of the other breeds, because their tem- peraments do not harmonize with his. The selection of a breed must therefore be left entirely to the individual, and it is our suggestion that our correspond- ent study carefully each breech before any one is selected. It would be a difficult task, if not Im- possible, for us to write in detail the characteristics of the dairy breeds, so that a person could decide from read- ing the description of each which breed he would prefer. We can say, however, that the Holsteins are noted for their large flow of milk, which is moderately rich in fat; the Jerseys and Guernseys eor a medium flow of milk, which Is rich in fat, and the Ayrshires standing between the Holstein and Jersey and Guernsey, giving not as large a flow of milk as the Holstein and not as rich as the Jersey or Guernsey. y Raising the Calf. A calf given alfalfa hay as soon as it will eat it will make a better animal than on any other roughness, says Farm Progress. As good calves may be raised on separated skimmed milk, oil cake and alfalfa hay as can be pro- duced running with the cow. In addi- tion it may be stated that oil cake and alfalfa hay are cheaper than butter fat. Good Care Pays. All ill treatment of a cow makes her milk less deskable and also decreases her value permanently. Good care and kindness toward her male for profit for her owner. t I Feeding the Milk Makc: s I .A. question which naturally arises is why will a cow give more milk when allowed to eat grass in a pasture than when this same grass is curt and fed in the stall? From our work it would seem that this is so, says Professor Doane of the Maryland experiment sta- tion. Two variations occur in the two different ways of feeding. In one the cow usually receives all her forage In two feeds per day; in the other she may put in a large share of the day gathering her feed. In one case the feed may be slightly wilted, while in the other it is, of course, eaten perfect- ly fresh. It is hard to see, however, how either of these would materially affect the milk. 'T'here seems to be a chance for some experimental work for determining the best method of feeding soiling crops. There might be a chance for improving the custom of feeding twice a day only. Good Feeding Pays. A half starved cow is never profit- able. Get good cows and feed well and the results will always be satisfactory. Feed For the Dry Cow. Bran is the safest feed that goes down a cow's throat; hay and bran when she Is dry. In ten days or two weeks before calving she ought to be- gin to make a bag. Il she dries not on four to six quarts of bran and all tate hay she can eat and her bowels are right, commence to give her a handful of cake meal; increase it to two hand- fuls and on up to a pint if necessary. At every feed keep your eye on the cow and her udder. It should not be a big, red, inflamed, ulcerous looking thing, as hard as a brick and out of shape, but a splendid pendent recepta- cle for milk, dignified for maternity.— Rev. J. D. Dietrich. Pumpkins For Milk. Give the cows plenty of pumpkins. If fed with grain ration they will in- crease the milk flow.—F miners Advo. tate. Cottonseed Meal. If you have been in the habit of feed- ing the cows cornmeal or corn and cob meal as the grain ration during the winter season, get some cottonseed meal and substitute one pint for a like amount of the eorulneat. Gradually come up to one quart of the cottonseed meal, leaving out a like amount of cornmeal, and note results, If the cow's milk is not doubled, I am mistak- en, says A. J. Legg in Farm Journal. A Milk Ration. A. ration composed of twenty pounds clover and timothy hay, three pounds each corn and cob meal and bran and n pound cottonseed ureal would proba- bly suffice when fed to a geed dairy COW to produce twenty to twenty-five pounds of 4 per cent milk. --.Hoard's HIS WIFE'S LUNGS BOTtt AFFECTED But the Great Consumptive Preven- tative brought Health and Happi- ness to his Home "Our doctor said there was no cure for my wife as both her lungs were affected,' says Mr. L.
