Church Closed. • The Presbyterian Church at Dun- keld will soon be closed up. For some- time past, Dunkeld and 'Pinker ton have been united, but at the last meeting of the Presbytery, it was de- cided to close up Dunkeld, and to unite Cargill and Pinkerton. The Dunkeld church was once a strong congre- gation, but death and removals have reduced it to almost the vanishing point. This kind of thing is going on all over Ontario, and soon the country place of worship will be a thing of the past. And when church union takes place, as it no doubt will within a very few years, the number of discarded churches will be legion, Fine Stock. Tho Mildmay Gazette reports a suc- cessful sale of Shorthorns at Moses Bilger's recently.

A government report states that the Practical Counselor For Fruit anti. Gar- den Culture of Frankfort recently of- fered a prize for the besttmethod of destroying plant lice, for which fifty- eight iftyDight persons competed. The prize was awarded to the author of the follow- lug preparation; • Quassia wood, two and one-half pounds, to be soaked over night in ten quarts of water and well boiled, then strained through a cloth and placed, with 100 quarts of water, in a petroleum barrel, with Ave pounds of soft soap. The mixture is then, ready for sprinkling on plants infested with lice. Leaves, even those of peach trees, will not be Injured in the least by the solution, which can bo kept covered in the barrel from spring to fallwithout deterioration. As soon as Tice appear the leaves should bo sprinkled with the solution. If this is repeated several times the pests will • disappear, Culture of Tobacco: The application of shade and semi - shade to tobacco plants has worked considerable of a revolution in this Important crop. In Connecticut by the use of expensive shading methods it has been possible to greatly change the character of the crop, while in other sections by simpler methods of natural shading important modifications in type are attained. The department of agriculture reports a simple corn -to- bacco planting experiment at the Ken. tucky experiment station, covering a Period of three years, where the tobac- co was planted between rows of corn. The tobacco was of a finer texture and brought a higher price. Most soils which have been cropped to tobacco for any length of time are deficient in vegetable matter, At the same time commercial fertilizers are necessary in the production of such a highly spe- cialized crop as tobacco, but it is only COOLY HYBRID TOBACCO. by the incorporation with the soil year efter year of a considerable amount of vegetable tnatter that its proper phys, teal condition can be maintained and improved. An ideal tobacco soil will produce heavy yields of almost any crop. Such a soil is stated by George T. McNeiss, tobacco expert of the de- partment of agriculture, as one "of good depth, mellowness and water holding capacity, and in order to pos- sess these a soil must contain a con- siderable quantity of decayed vege- table matter." Without these basic conditions it is not to be expected that full benefit to tobacco or any other crop cam be derived in this way. An Expert Farmer. An exchange says a young man asks, "What would you advise a young man raised on a fnrtn who cannot stand the dust of haying and thrashing and is most too light to do heavy farm work to do?" Gardening, floriculture, poultry rais- ing. civil engineering -all are good. If he is built for an expert, there are land- scape gardening, inside decorating and a number of other good occupations open to him. a. The young- man who is built for an expert -that is, one who is naturally bright, ,careful and painstaking -will succeed in 'any of the above or in al- most any other occupation. He will have to team the business he selects. IIe cameot learn any of them from a "correspondence school." He needs a practical instructor who can show him, and the way to become ten expert is to begin at the bottom and work up, thor- oughly learning all the details as one goes along. The expert is always in demand, and he commands the top wagas. Whatever vocation a young man goes into, be should be thorough as he goes along, always keeping his eyes open for better ways of doing the, work he bas in hand. All vocations are crowd- ed with ordinary workers, but there's still lots of room in the upper ranks. The Vine Blight. Several inquiries from New England were recently received at the depart- ment of agriculture asking for reme- dies to prevent or euro the blight that destroys cucumber, melon and squash vines and referring to the well known disease very prevalent in America of late years and which causes appar- ently vigorous vines to suddenly with- er and die within a few days from the beginning of the attack. According to' Dr. B. T. Galloway of the bureau of plant industry, the blight Is prevalent all along the Pacific coast. The germs of the blight aro carried by an insect. Efe recommends that the vines should make a steady rather than a rapid growth and should be planted on ground containing a large amount of organic matter, adding also nitrogen In the form of nitrate of soda. Spray- ing the plants with paris greet 'and bordeaux mixture such as is used for potatoes kills the insect which carries the blight and prevents its puncturing the leaves and admitting tho fungus of the disease. As a means Of preven- tion it is recommended that the crops be grown on fresh ground each year. Cure For Sick Women.

There was a constant dull pain in the pit of my stomach. I was unable to sleep, was nervous, restless and would awake more tired than on going to bed.

A cough mixture slips quick- ly over the weak spots, drops into the stomach and does little but harm digestion, It's altogether different with Catarrhozone-it cures because it gets right at the trouble. You in- hale Catarrhozone, breathe in the vapor of healing balsams that strengthen and restore throat tissues. You'll not have colds, or coughs.
