Williams, a successful farmer in Illinois, has com- pleted arrangements to move to Canada with six oars of effeots and 08 horses, Ho will farm eight sections and bring with hint a oapxtal of $300,000. Some 28 families will follow Mr. Williams from Illinois,, -The Milverton Sun says: The dogs have again been playing havoo with the sheep and geese in this neighborhood. John Langford, of Gravebridge, had two sheep killed and another badly worried, and two geese were killed. This is a bard state of affairs when a man's live stook is not safe in his own yard. A man with a nice flock of sheep is now in more dread than a farmer forty years ago, when the wolves were roaming the woods, -Mr, Jas.

In the first place, he and his horses were in the railway wreok near Guelph, but were none the worse of that; then before the journey was over Mr, Kidd's clothes were Stolen, but he recovered them again, Then at the wind-up, after all had got to Braudon safely, in the shunt- ing of the cars, one of the horses got down among the rest and was trampled. to death. The horse was the Walkerton pacer, and a valuable one. -One of the largest steers in the State of Kansas was bought last week by the State Agricultural College at Manhattan. The steer is a dark red grade Shorthorn. He is six feet high and weighs 2,900 pounds. He is not fat, but those in charge intend to bring him up to 4,000 pounds before he is mature. He is four years old. Last September he was exhibited at the Riley County Fair and weighed 2,700 pounds. He has gained fifty pounds a month since that time. Tlie Agricultural Col- lege purchased the steer to fatten him for the World's Fair. ONTARIO'S CAPITAL. Toronto has a population, by its direc- tory census, of 267,000 people.

Business among the Chinese, accord- ing to a Russian traveler who has just returned from Manchuria, is on a co- operative basis, There are neither pro• prietors nor employees, but all who work in an establishment are partners. From time to time small allowances are doled out to them -barely enough to live on -bet at the end of the year all the profits ars divided. The Chinese merchants are so honest that among all the ten branches of the Russo -Chinese Bank located in China there has been no record since their establishment of a single protested note. 1 Diphtheria Spread By Lead Pencils. That the practice which exists in a great niftily of the public schools in this country of using the sante books and pencils from year to year until worn out is a dangerous one is shown by the report of a medical inspector iii the oity of Paris. An epldonnio of diphtheria among 8oluiel Children in a oortairi dis• trict of that city was spread by pencils. These penods, Which were nn ilei al property, were in certain soltools clietri' bated in the morning and collected at night, Tho coiumon practice ttlnong children of holding their pencils in their mouths while at work show how, easy it is for the disease to spread.

Carter of Dansville had with rheumatism whish resisted everything till Nerviliue was tried, and it cured, "The only re- lief I ever got was from rubbing on Nerviline" writes Mrs. Carter. It pene• trated to the very core of the pain and eased my suffering after a few applica- tions. I have used many rheumatic remedies but none had the soothing, pain subduing power of Nerviline whish I recommend highly." Try Nerviliue yourself. Good for internal use and ex- cellent to rub on. Price 25. '1. Prevention Of Potato Diseases. It is well occasionally to have a re- statement of facts and new testimony in relation to the results of practice. As such, here are presented some state- ments made by Mr. L. H. Reid of Wis- consin, at the winter meeting of the Missouri horticultural society, in De- cember. Mr. Reid raises potatoes on a large scale and makes his statements in regard to potato culture from actual knowledge. This is his advice; "No one should ever plant a field of potatoes without first soaking. the seed in the corrosive sublimate solution (2 ounces of corrosive sublimate to 16 ounces of water). Even if the seed ap- pears perfectly free from every trace of scab, soak it, as the germs of scab may be clinging to the skin of the tuber. The expense is small, and the remedy sure, if the treated seed is planted upon land free from the germs of the scab," Bordeaux mixture is just as sure a remedy against blight as the corrosive sublimate against scab. But one thing must be remembered and that is,, it is not a cure but a preventative. In using it you must commence early and apply it as often as necessary to keep every leaf coated with an armor plate of cop- per. Then the germs of the dreaded blight will not be able to gain entrance. Don't apply it once or twice and think that will do, as you will be very likely to lose entirely the labor expended in the first applications. If yon take up the battle you must keep it up until the season is over, or your labor may be in vain. In,a wet season you may have to go over your field as often as once a week, or even oftener. The only safe way is to keep that armor plata solid, or the little foe may enter. Li an ordinary season four or five applications give very satisfactory results.

Brussels. The young girls of Brussels are mals- ing arrangements for a lively program at Basket ball. Brussels Salt Works has an order for 12 cars of their well known Salt for shipment to points iu Manitoba. Assessor Causley has completed his duties for this year. According to him, dogs were scarce when he was around. The i2 mile race track on the Agricul- tural Park has dried off well and the local horsemen are exercising their fast steeds thereon. Our cheese factory is agate in working order. W. B. Thomson of Holmesville will have charge for W. W. Harris the proprietor, and has taken up his resid- ence in appartments connected with the factory. The old landmarks in this vicinity are fast disappearing. An old log house ou Mill street, on the lot owned by W. J. Norton of Listowel, has been pulled down. It was built about fifty years ajo by the late Frank Kelly and in the early days the local Orange Lodge held its meetings upstairs in it for a time be- fore their Hall was built on the same street. Thuell Bros. pulled down the house. About 25 persons around Brussels who grew sugar beets last season for the Wiarton factory and who did not re- ceive their pay, owing to the financial embarrassment of the Co., are filing their claims with the expectation of re- ceiving a percentage, from the bounty 'to be paid by the Provincial Govern- ment. From $1200 to $1500 will be the total claims in this locality and it is estimated that they will receive about thirty cents on the $. Barrister Sin- clair has the matter in hand. The highest individual amount was $200. NOTICE. -The question is how can Robb. Mclndoo loan his money so cheap on notes and mortgages. Call and see. ROBT, McINDOO. Only One Cure For Catarrh. And it's neither a dopy mixture, a troublesome atomizer or an irritating snuff -it is fragrant healing Catarrho• zone whish is recommended by at least twenty -thousand physicians in United States and Canada. The balsamic vapor of Catarrhozone kills the germs, heals sore spots of the throat; it prevents drop- ping in the throat, keeps the nostrils clear and cures foul breath. Cure is complete and permanent when Catarrho- zone is used. It is as certain as eternity to cure, can't fail. Every complete out- fit is guarnuteed; trial size 25o. Use only Catarrhozonb. A Scarecrow. A correspondent of Farm and Rauch gives this way of making a scarecrow to keep rabbits out of a cabbage patch: Take a piece of board 1 by 6 feet long, nail one crosspiece eighteen inches long across four feet from one end, tack on a pair of old pants or overalls, then nail another piece four feet long twelve inches from the top, tack on an old 'coat and slip the sleeves over the crosspiece. Tho head is made of a small flour sack filled with hay and stuck on top. On this I put an old hat, and your elan is ready to be stuck out in the middle of your truck patch. To his hands on the end of the sleeves I hung a bunch of old paper, which moves hi the slightest breath of the air. If those who are troubled with rab- bits will try' this they will find it an efficient remedy. Changs the 1'oed Lots for Piga. The practice of keeping pigs in the same pens and yards year after year is a very objectionable one. The ani- mals become unthrifty and finally diseased, Everyone who keeps hogs should have two sets of feeding pens or lots. One should bo used one year and the other the next. In the un- used lot put in some kind of a crop, such as rape, peas, clover or some of tho grasses. Heavy croi9s can be produced in such places and growing then purifies the soil and puts the ground in good condition for a hog lot the following year, Rapo is grown successfully in all the nooks and corners of my farm and can be used freely in this lati- tude. ITogs and sheep can be turned in w}+en the crop is fit for feed, and in this way quite a quantity of early forage is secured before. the other crops are ready.
