WINGHAM ONTARIO WINGBAIVI ADVANCE, THURSDAY, JUNE 18,. 1908, 5 illus Roue - An nnexpeeted explosion of n heavy charge of dynamite on the G, T. P. heeled nine men ender tons of rock. Two of the men were Eng- lisbunen, and their famiiiee were on the ocean at the time, and knew noth- ing of the sad news, until they landed. Stratford, June 12.—William Mc- Caffrey, farmer of Ellice Township, fell from the top of a heavy wagon loaded with lumber to -night and was run over. His back was badly Nem - ed, probably broken, his chest crush' ed, and arms bruised. He is in a low condition, but,.inay recover. During the electric and *rain storm that passed over this district on Mon- day evening a tornado swept across the southern part of Greenock town- ship, A number of barns were blown down, orchard trees torn up by the roots, and fences demolished. Some of the barns destroyed were those of .Tarries Powell, and J. Kaake of near Black Horse. These barns were sim- ply crushed to pieces, In Mr. Pow - ell's barn was a new buggy and a binder nearly new. Thie loss to Mr. Powell follows upon the loss of his house by fire a couple of years ago. —Prior to their leaving' Lucknow for the West, Mr. and Mrs. Jas. Bryan were presented with addresses and mementoes at the Methodist par- sonage on Friday.. evening last. The Ladies' Aidof the Church presented Mrs. Bryan with an address, and suit- case. The choir presented her with an address and piece of cut -glass, while Mr. Brvan's friends of the male element presented him with a beauti- ful gold chain and gold fob attached. Many were the expressions of regret at the departure of Mr, and Mrs. Bryan from the community, and es- pecially from the Methodist church, where they so long had taken an ac- tive part and ardent interest in its maintenance and progress. Brussels. drops in this vicinity are looking well. Brussels Creamery disposed of 5 tons of choice butter to the McLaren imperial Cheese Co. The price was 23 cents per pound. The town company of volunteers turned out in fairly good shape this week for camp in Godericli. New outfits have been provided. Last Sunday afternoon the members of Western Star Lodge, No. 149, E. 0. 0. F., Brussels, held their annual decorating service in the cemetery. The Methodist Sunday School here proposes this year to support two children in the Kanazawa Orphanage, Japan, and also maintain a cot in the new hospital in Chentu, China. At the June Communion service of Brussels Presbyterian Church, the communicants numbered 390, the' larg- est in the history of the congrega- tion, and 12 members were added to the roll. ' At the Methodist Conference held.,at Exeter, W. H. Kerr, of The Post, was elected as -President of the Layman's Association of London Conference for the ensuing year. W. J. Fawcett, of Brussels, is the past President and was placed on the Executive. Brussels is becoming apparently Conservative, if we can judge by the large decrease in the Liberal majority from 20 in 1905 to 7 in 1908. It is said that one life-long Liberal marked his ballot openly for Mr. Porter, and de- clares he has given his last Liberal vote, Reeve Leckie gave his decision in the arbitration case of Granger vs. Ransford. The latter is asked to pay \'Ir. Grainger $142 for damage to his Geld from the overflowing of brine from the salt well and is also asked to provide against the continuance of the matter complained of by Mr. Grain- ger. Between 11 and 12 o'clock Tuesday night the fire alarm was rung, the cause being a fire in the rear outer wail of W. Oakley's shoe shop. The door was burst in and by active effort inside and out the blade was pet out. Several panes of glass were broken and a portion of the sheeting torn off in getting at the fire. It was evident- ly of an incendiary character as coal oil had been used to more readily as- sist in the proposed burning, One Bad Mistake Is Prequently Made by the Wisest' of Wingham People.

This necessitates the dehorning of all the animals, but furnishes a measure of freedom and exercise not obtainable In any form of stall or tie, We reproduce in this connection a floor plan for such an arrangement adapted from circular No. 95, dairy di- vision of the Illinois. Agricultural col- lege, and copy from that circular as follows: A space in the barn 30 by 52 feet Is devoted to the cows. A manger run- ning lengthwise extends to within eight feet of the wall at each end. These spaces between the manger and the wall are closed by gates. At mincing time nil of the cows are driven to the side of the manger where the figures showing dimensions are placed, which contains a watering tank, not shown In the cut, and the gates are closed. The door of the milking room, sixteen feet in width, is then opened, and the boss colts are always ready to enter. Near the end of this room are three stalls, in which the milking is clone, and It Is surprising to note bow quickly each -vv-- a W w r ar va w sa' No IrICmRS .d DIAGIAAt BOB LOOSE STABLING. cow learns in which stall she is to be milked and the order in which her tern conies, so that the three milkers (thir- ly-ttu-ee cows are cared for in this barn) have little difficulty in always milking the same cows and in the same order. When the milkers are ready the gates at the rear of the stalls are open- ed, one cow enters each stall, and the gates are closed. The cows eat their grain while being milked and pass out (Brough gates at the front of the stallg into the other side of the sited or main room. As the manger and gates divide this room, the cows that have been milked are forced to remain ou one side and cannot come to the milking stalls a second time. All grain is fed in the milking stalls and the roughage from the large man- ger in the center of the shed. This manger is raised as fast as the manure accumulates (abundant bedding must be used), so that It is always a conven- ient height for the cows. In this herd of thirty-three cows not a soiled cow ,was to be seen. Best stock I„ Cheapest. All favor the practice of economy; it Is hart of time business of life, True economy comes in practice here. Sup- pose two cows are in the market, cost- ing $20 and $50 respectively, and the tluestioa; is which to buy, we shottld consider what each cow will do. If the twenty dollar cow makes $30 worth of butter and the fifty dollar easy wakes .$75 in a given time, why isn't the latter by far the more eco- nomical? The cheap cow will consume as mucic as the higher priced. In Stable tate farmers are losing more in this chatter than elsewhere. The qual- ity of a farm animal determines in a measure the profit of the farm. It is not necessary to breed pure theroggh- kred animals, bat those thick will yield their product at a profit. Anoth- er point: Is it economy to u,e a cheap bred or somb sire or the pure bred for double the cost? I think the latter cheaper in the end, Our stock inter- ests grow poaror every year. I can see a decrease in the quality anti value of our farm animals. When stock is high buyers take the beat to send tO Brighton, and we do business with the rest. We must retrograde, tier it is impossible to advance in quality under such conditions, — George Pirtmmer, r'eeebsept t:ouuty, Me., In American Cultivator. , Not All Cows Alth:e. It is true that a very large per cent of our eairy cows (ire absolutely un- productive, never paying their own ex- pense, Is it not far better to keep fif- teen cows all of which are liberal pro- ducers than to add to this number another fifteen that are not self sup- porting? The second fifteen are kept up by file profit of the first fifteen, but Crow la the owner to be kept up? This very difficulty with which we are so heavily burdened must be retueved before a dairy can be made profitable, But how are We going fo judge ^which enimai;t {ire profitable and which are unprofitable? By the milk sheet, a pair of milk miles and the Babcock test. At the end of each month we can tell exactly how much milk and butter' fat each cow in the herd ]rag' produced and hence how much money she has made, From this amount the expense of keeping ber could be de- ducted and the remainder credited to her account as profit for the menthe* Professor $, U. trawl, ,.,a _.,..,,_ _a New Theory About Rheumatism.
