Opera- tions will immediately begin in the vicinity of Protan and the road will be pushed with all possible speed to- wards Walkerton, -Tice new Cunard turbine steam- ship, "Lusitania," which is said to be the largest ocean liner in the world, was launched at Glasgow last week. She is 700 fret long, with a displace- ment of 40,000 tons, and her speed is said to be 2i to 25 knots, say, 28 miles per hour. The steamer has cabin ac- commodation for 550 first-class, 500 second-class and 1,800 third-class pas- sengers, and crew will number about eight hundred. -The following letter has been re- ceived by Mr. J. Gunther, Listowel, from Mr, Leonard of the 0. P. R. in re- ference to the proposed branch from Linwood to Listowel :-"I have your letter of June 9, and you will be pleas- ed to learn that yesterday I wired Mr. Peterson, our chief engineer at Gode- rich to advertise for tenders covering the construction of the branch line from Linwood to your town, and I have no doubt we will be in a position to be running our trains between Lis- towel and Toronto before the close of the present year." -The Owen Sound Advertiser is re- sponsible for a remarkable addition to the chapters of coincidence. A. few years ago a jewelry firm in that town sold a watch to a gentleman who later went West, and was in San Francisco at the tune of the earthquake. He was one of the unfortunates who sav- ed nothing, his watch being among • his missing valuables. A. few weeks later a jewelry traveller of Toronto passed through San Francisco and visited the ruins of the city. He secured a number of curiosities, among them being two fifty cent pieces, a jack-knife, a ring and a watch. On his return to headquar- ters he decided to exhibit his curiosi- ties, but for some reason kept the watch on his person. Arriving in Owen Sound a few days later he made his way to the jewelers' store and ask- ed to have the watch exhibited in their window. At that time it was black and the works rusted. While in the act of cleaning the watch the jewelers discovered their name and the number of the watch still stamp- ed on the inside cover. Tracing back by number and description of the .. watch they discovered that this was the same watch sold to the gentleman who had departed for San Fran- cisco. Goderich. A raft of a million feet of logs ar- rived off this port Wednesday night and entered the harbor on Thursday. The raft was brought from Stokes Bay. The steamer Algonquin, with 94,000 bushels of wheat for the Western Canoda Flour Mills Co., reached port yesterday morning, and at once com- menced unloading. E. P. Paulin is having the basement of his entire store cemented this week and is otherwise making room pre- paratory to adding a plumbing and tinsmitbing business. The pile driving for the track along the bank south of and above the G. T. R. track at the dock is being pushed ahead, and now about 300 feet of its foundation has been placed. John A. Taylor, B. A., who has been appointed as the principal of the new high school to be opened at Wingham in September, is a well-known gradu- ate of the Goderich Collegiate In- stitute. Official notice has been received by the local contractors from C. P. R. head officials that the stations on the Guelph & Goderich Railway between Guelph and Elmira must be ready for traffic by July 2nd, intimating that passengers will be carried to and from that point on and after that date. Chief Architect Ross, of the Public Works Department, Ottawa, was in town over Sunday and looked through the post -office to see what were the changes petitioned for through the Board of Trade. He expressed himself as impressed with the inadequacy of and I the accommodation,t to necessity for enlargement. On Saturday evening the first pieces of iron (2) were raised at the south end of what in three months will be the Maitland River bridge of the C. P. R., and since then work has been con- tinued. In the placing of the iron work the contractors and their em- ployees seem to be losing no time now in carrying out their contract. The Maitland River Power 00. have opened an of ee on North street in the premises formerly occupied by the Huron & Brnce Loan Co. and the town treasurer. They have provided it with the different engineers' reports on the proposition, also the reports of the Ontario Power Commission on the various power schemes- considered by them, Last Friday morning Dan McKay had both his hands badly burned at the summer hotel, where he is work ing. He had extinguished the light of a coffee urn and was refilling it with gasoline, when the gasoline ignited from the heat of the burner. Mr. Mc - Kay's shirt sleeves protectedstel his arms, but the lower part of Itis sleeves WAS burned, and his hands, being uttpro• teeted, were badly burned, It is not necessary to have cement floors, tiled wainscoting and varnished ceilings to secure clean milk, If the cow should stand on a platform short enough to keep her flanks clean when she Iles down and her udder and adja- cent Darts are brushed before milking -- if the milking Is done with clean hands and the milk is cooled to 50 degrees soon after milking by setting the can in cold water In a place away from the stable odors -there Is no question but that it can be delivered to the creamery sweet three times a week. The can sbould be set In cold water summer and winter, not covered till cold The cooling power of water at any given temperature Is very much greater than the cooling power of air at the same temperature, as any one can testify who has fallen In the water when skating. During cold weather the cooling process should not be overdone by allowing the milk to freeze either in the cooling tank or on the way to the creamery. - H. H, Van Norman, Pro- fessor of Dairying in Pennsylvania State College, in National Stockman. Milk Cooling Pail. The accompanying diagram gives a cross section of a milk pail, showing an ice chamber in dotted lines as well as (o) a brass screw cap, which closes the chamber, frays Rural New Yorker. MILK PAIL WITH IOn OHASIBEB. The ice chamber is filled with crushed ice and salt by means of a funnel. The milking is done as far as possible by directing the streams on the ice cham- ber. The pail is rather heavy, and Its practical value remains to be proved by careful comparative experiments. A Valuable Dairy Cow. If there is a dual purpose cow, which I very much doubt, it is the Ayrshire, writes a correspondent of American Cultivator. Being a good feeder and inclined to lay on fat when not in milk, which is at long intervals and for short periods, she will not make so much beef perhaps as some of the larger breeds, but of a quality second to none. Her milk, which is ample in quanti- ty, contains at least an average amount of butter fat, and when separated con- tains enough solids to make it of extra value for feeding purposes and su- perior to some milk yielding a larger per cent of cream. Besides being a valuable dairy cow the Ayrshire is a fine looking animal, which is certainly no discredit to her, if of no advantage, and with most peo- ple looks Is a prominent factor, Kicking Cows. It is not natural for a cow to kick when she is being milked. Kicking habits are almost invariably contracted on account of mistreatment on the part of the dairyman, and every good cow man knows it is much easier to prevent a cow from acquiying the kicking habit than it is to cure her of it after it has once been learned. A heifer never be- gins to kick unless she is afraid of something; hence the importance of handling a heifer carefully and being kind to her at all times. If a cow has confidence in her master she likes to have him draw her milk; bench treat your heifers with kindness from calf - hood up and avoid the necessity of hav- ing to resort to means of keeping her from kicking when mature. -Farmer's Review. Silage For Milk Cattle. A New York farmer writes as fol- lows in American Agriculturist: "I have had a silo for the past eleven years. The first six years the corn was put in whole, but since then it has been cut. We prefer it in this form, as there is no waste. We have had no Complaint about a silage taste In the milk. Our winter ration for milk cows is as follows-, 13e - fore milking in the morning the cows receive a grain ration and after milking a bushel of silage; before noon, hay, and at night another ration of grain be- fore milking and hay after milking. My stock have always done well on si- lage and are always ready for more of it." Dairy Hint*. el.. Salt l. - Salt once a day. it Feed twice a day.

Kenney, front Ottawa, "I strained my back and side so severely I had to go to bed, Every movement, caused ole torture. I tried different liniments, bat wasn't helped till I used N rvit1ne. Even e first application gave considerable relief. In three clays I wan again at work. Other men in the 111 used Nervi'i o With tremendous benefit too." An harvest record of nearly ilfty years. has established the value of P'oison's Ner- valine, RICHNESS IN MILK, Depends Moro �unI dividuallity el the C01:9 Tiffin on Feed. Some weeks ago, pays gourd's Petry. man, we had occasion to dissent from the conclusions announced in a bulle' tin Issued by the Pennsylvania experi- ment station, wherein It was stated that a modification of .a ration by sub• stituting five and one-half pounds of drie 1 distillers' grains for three pounds of cottonseed weal and two and one- haif pounds of cornmeal for a period of four weeks resulted In a "decided increase In milk production and had a marked effect upon the richness of the milk, increasing its fat content very noticeably," This effect was attribut- ed to the somewhat high percentage of fat In the grains. The grounds for this dissent were stated to be the brief period covered by the experiment and the composition of the ration to which the substitution Ivan lied whichwas"bay,silage, v np cornmeal and cottonseed meal," and it was suggested that bad bran been sub- stituted instead of distillers' grains similar results might have followed. It was also stated that experimenters had theretofore succeeded in.inereas-, ing the per cent of tat in milk for a limited time by changing the composi- tion of the ration, but that as soon as the cow became accustomed to the change the milk returned to its normal composition. And now comes Professor Armsby and in a recent communication to the Jersey Bulletin practically 'acknowl- edges the correctness of our criticism. W'e quote from that communication as follows: As a rule, however, the effect -'in- creasing the per cent of fat' -is not very great. In our experiments with dried distillers' grains the average per- centage of fat in the milk was increas- ed from 4.89 to 5.23, or about one-third of 1 per cent. Moreover, several experi- menters have noticed that while the ad- dition of fat to the feed increased the fat percentage of the milk at first the effect was not permanent. Our own ex- periments, not being directed especially to this point, were not continued long enough to test this part of the question. "I think we may safely say that while it seems to have been shown that the quality of the milk may be influ- enced by the food in some cases it can hardly be said to be controlled by It. The influences which are potent in de- termining the richness of milk are the breed and individuality of the cow and the stage of lactation. Any effects which can be produced by changes In the feeding are relatively minor ones and cut a very small figure economic- ally." The Cows Value. It is not only the milk and butter that determine a cow's value. If she is a profitable animal her heifer calves are apt to be good milkers. Like pro- duces like, or most often does, and a dairyman must look into the future and not live just for today. Save the heifer calves from your good cows. � y 1Feeding the Milk Maker i For the average cow, weighing about 1,000 pounds, eighteen pounds of al- falfa hay and eight pounds of corn is a complete balanced ration, says G. W. Meleck in Kimball's Dairy Farmer. It only lacks one ingredient during the time of the year when cows cannot obtain grass or other succulent feed. This ingredIeut is corn silage or roots and tubers. Succulent feeds stimu- late the appetite and juices of the di- gestive system, help digest other food eaten with them, have a cooling and laxative effect on the system and are relished by cattle such as delicacies are by human beings. In Line of Progress. The farmer who knows nothing of balanced rations and who will not in- form himself should seek safety and the welfare of his stock in providing a variety of feeds. This may be but a blind way to progress, but better this than no progress. -Farm and Ranch. Success In Feeding. The most successful feeders are the oxen whose judgment is so keen and ob- servation so close that they can feed the animals in their charge close up to the limit of what they will eat and yet leave the appetite so unsatisfied that it would take a little more if it could get it. -Holstein -Friesian Register. Clover Ray as Roughage. Professor C. II. Eckles of the Missou- ri Agricultural college says that where clover hay alone is used as roughage it is possible to compound a pretty well balanced ration from the grains com- monly grown upon all farms. Substi- tuting roughage of less nitrogenous val- ue, however, calls for an increase in the amount of the grain ration or for the addition of a small amount of one of the rich concentrates, -Michigan Farm. er. Feed and Cows. A bulletin of the Utah station, giv- ing the record of fifteen cows for one year, shows that the' cost of the food eaten for each 100 pounds of milk pro- duced varied with different cows from 29,9:8 to 52.07 cents. The cost of food per pound of butter ranged from 5.91 to 11.8 cents in the ease of different cows, and, with butter at 29 cents a pound, the net proflt from a cow for one year ranged all the way from $14.71 to $51.37. The cows were common na- tive and grades selected with consid- erable care. Mange's For Cows. Mange's may be fed to cows in quan- tities from twenty to forty pounds daily, says Hoard's Dairyman. If the larger amount is fed it should be divid- ed in two feeds. The roots shotild he sliced or pulped before feeding, and it is an excellent plan to mix the grain allowance with them. 1 ' ��Illillw....

At the communion service last Sun- day in Knox church the individual communion cups were used for the first time, Ezra Briggs has finally lost the job of Chief Constable, the County Coun- cil having appointed Robt. Russell, of Walkerton to the position. At the meeting of the Sabbath School Convention held at Mildmay, may, June 19th, the convention decid- ed to divide the district. The town- ships of Culross and Carrick with the village of Teeswater were made one division ; those of Brant, Greenock and the town of Walkerton the other. While trying to drive his horse across a culvert that was being re- paired. Mr. Richard Porter, brother of Mrs. Robt. Marshall, 2nd con„ receiv- ed a severe kick in the face from the animal, His face is terribly disfigur- ed, the upper jaw being broken into seven pieces and the fleshy part of the nose torn away. The wound though painful is not considered dangerous. Mr. John Heffron, brother of Mrs. T. Corbett, of town, who is well- known here having been assistant a number of tines at the King Edward Hotel, met with an almost fatal ac- cident on Friday last on a farm seven miles out of Blyth. He with a num- ber of other men were preparing to move a large barn that was set on a post foundation about seven feet high. The barn had been jacked up and the posts removed. A start was made to lower it to the moving rollers when a ntunber of the jacks kicked out and the whole structure came to the ground with a crash that was heard five utiles away. Most of the men were under the barn at the time and there were many narrow escapes from instant death as the building, roof and all, was flattened to the ground, a mass of timbers and lumber. A num- ber of the men received slight injuries but Hefferon was the only one seriously hurt. One of his legs is broken between the ankle and knee and he is badly cut about the head. One cut near the top of the head re- quired ten stitches to close it up. Heffron was unconscious for several hours after being taken from the wreck and it was thought at first that he was dead.
