THE WINDHAM ADVANCE, MUNN, MAY 4, 1905"
'Roils
--A most wonderful freak of nature
is on the premises of Mr, Win. Radler
of the 14th con., Iiay. It is a coif
without tail or eyes, Otherwise the
little bovine is perfect and in good
health.
—There are $70 Separate Schools in
Ontario, They draw $20,883 of gov-
ernment grant, There are 10 Separ-
ate Schools in Bruce County and they
receive an aggregate government
grant of $505.
—The Grand Trunk is greatly im-
proving the line between Wiarton
and Palmerston. All the wooden
bridges are to be replaced with iron,
and the roadbed placed in first-class
shape, The little bridge at Parkhead
has already been renewed,
• —While the acreage of sugar beets
fell off in Michigan Last year, the pre-
diction is made in Country Gentleman
that there will be an increase this
year. The slump in potato prices is
given as he cause; many farmers who
grew potatoes in 1901 will grow beets
in 1005.
—An anonymous letter writer
threatened Walter Jerome of Bettie
Township that if he did not place $2,-
000 in a certain hollow tree his barn
and house would be blown up. Not
having the money, he failed to comp-
ly, and his buildings were blown to
pieces.
•— Among the companies incorporat-
ed lately is the Andrew Malcolm
Furniture .Company, Limited. It con-
sists of Andrew Malcolm, James Mal-
cohn, Jaines Bruce Watson, Mrs. A.
Malcolm, all of the town of Kincar-
dine, and Mrs. CIarke, Toronto. The
capital stock is $100,000,
--Rural New Yorker gives this re-
cipe for bran gems : Beat two eggs
very light., add half a teaspoonful of
salt, a tablespoonful of brown sugar,
and one and one-half cupfuls of milk,
then stir in a pint of finely ground
bran. Fill oiled. gem pans half full
and bake in a hot oven 20 minutes.
These gems are advised in some forms
of indigestion, where fine flour is ob-
jectionable.
—While about 20 men were engaged
in pulling down a barn in South East -
hope township, last week, the frame-
work gave way and catne down with a
crash, Half a dozen men were injur-
ed, two of them it is feared, fatally,
Henry Meyer was struck in the back
and bad his spine broken. Jno. Wit-
tig's spine was broken in three places.
Henry Otto had his right shoulder
blade broken, besides other cats and
bruises. Noah Smith had his leg
sprained, and J. Herich was severely
injured.
—Last week's Atwood Bee says ;—
It is not an uncommon thing to see a
black bear in the 14th swamp. There
seem to be quite a few of them as dif-
ferent people have seen them and at
different times. Two have been seen
together, so it is not jnst the one bear
which has been observed by everyone.
On day last week Wm. Ames saw one
close to his door, not more than 15 or
20 rods away. The alarm was given
but Bruin escaped into the brush
heaps and the wet swamp. The only
man who got near hint at all was one
who happened to be unarmed, and he
came within a few feet of hizn. The
next day what was supposed to be the
same bear was shot by Thos. Cockwell
in a field near his buildings.
—Scotland is the land of twins and
triplets, holding a long lead over her
sister countries in this matter. In 12
months no fewer than 1,625 mothers,
gave birth to twins, and 25 presented
triplets. Scotland is among the few
countries in Europe where the propor-
tion of male babies is greater than of
females. Striking an average, it is
found that there are about 104 males
to every 100 females, but the surplus
of grown-up girls is nevertheless Iarge,
as so many men travel south and ap-
parently neglect to take the precau-
tion to obtain return tickets to the
land of cakes. There is yet another
interesting fact about Scotland, It is
the land of hale old. age. Recent re-
turns show that during one year 673
people died between the ages of 90 and
100.

How To Ward Off Old Age.
The most successful way of warding
oft the approach of old age is to main-
tain a vigorous digestion. This can
be done by eating only food suited to
your age and occupation, and when
any disorder of the stomach appears
take a dose of Chamberlain's Stomach
and Liver Tablets to correct it. If
yoti have a weak stomach or are trou-
bled with indigestion, you will find
these Tablets to be just what you
need. For sale by all druggists.
Lucknow.
An offer of $7500 from Mr. Andrew
Carnegie to the public library board
will be considered at the next meeting
of the council on Tnesday evening.
At a special meeting of the village
council on Tuesday evening last, Mr.
Robt. Douglas was appointed engin-
eer of the waterworks plant, 43, posi-
tion so Iong and ably filled by his
father, the late Thomas Douglas.
The sudden death of Mr. Thomas
Douglas, engineer of the waterworks
plant, on Friday morning' last, was a
terrible shock to the whole communi-
ty, and a severe trial to his family and
friends. Mr. Douglas although not
feeling well had been attending to his
usual duties up till half -past live on
Thursday evening, when he was sud-
denly seized with a severe pain in the
bowels and stomach. Medical aid was
at once secured and everything pos-
sible was done to relieve his suffer-
ings, but to no avail, and at six o'clock
on Friday morning he passed away,
from perforation of the bowels. De-
ceased who was in his 56th year was
an old and highly respected citizen
of tbis village, and his sudden demise
has cast a sad gloom over the whole
section.
The Source Of Neuralgia.
It runs hand in hand with poor
blood and nerves. Health runs down,
nerves get irritable, neuralgic torture
follows. For the moment applica-
tions inay relieve—but to thoroughly
cure, the system must be strengthen-
ed with nutritious blood.
What can equal Ferrozone ? It in-
creases the appetite, forms abundance
of rich life-giving blood, supplies
nutriment and building material for
wornout nerves. Ferrozone complete-
ly cures neuralgia. Every root and
branch of the disease it kills. Abso-
lute success in every case. Stop suf-
fering—fifty cents buys Ferrozone.

It had been rumored that a license

incorrect, as it was granted a license

Still bo retained, If, However, she Is a
poor producer during her second lacta-
tion period, She ghoul¢ be kept uo
longer.
After the Vows have been tested for
a year and the best ones determined,
these should be bred to a sire of some
dairy breed, one that is both an ex-
cellent Individual and whose female
ancestors have ter several generations
been large producers. In no class of
animals iR the pedigree of so much
importance as in the dairy sire, In oth-
ere something can be told of the sire's
Individual merit for the purpose far
which he is kept. The speed stallion
can be tested on the track, the wool
ram by • examining his fleece and all
,flesh producing animals by the devel-
opment of high priced portions of their
bodies, while the ability of the dairy
bull to produce good milkers must be
determined almost entirely by the rec.
ord of his ancestors.
Again, to no class of animals do we
have the opportunity to determine the
individual merit of the females from a
standpoint of production so well as in
dairy cattle. Au exact record of the
yield for the entire year may be easily
kept and the animal's actual worth be
determined while still comparatively
young and without destroying the ani-
mals, as is necessary for the block test.
The old saying that "the sire is half the
herd" does not always express the
whole truth. In a sire whose ancestors
have been bred for dairy purposes only
these characteristics have become firm-
ly fixed and when crossed on cows of
no special breeding will produce calves
more like the sire than the dam. In
this case the sire counts for more than
half. A dairyman may start with
nothing but the grade cows of only fair
quality and by simply purchasing dairy
sires of excellent quality have a fine
grade dairy herd in a few years. Too
much stress cannot be laid on this
point, and money and time spent in
finding an excellent sire will prove a
remunerative investment. — Professor
Fraser of Illinois Agricultural College,
Dairy Profits Show Quickly.
Those engaged in dairying as a rule
are prosperous. There are a host of
reasons for this. The prime one is that
it is a cash business. .You feed your
cow today and get your returns tomor-
row. The dairyman does not have to
wait until after the harvest to pay his
hired man. He has his cash at the end
of every month. He need not run a hill
at the store. He is engaged in a cash
business and can pay as he goes. This
Is one of the foundation principles of
prosperity.—Farmers Advocate.
Test the Cow's Milk.
There are many ways to test the
richness of a cow's milk besides the
churn, and the matter of testing should
never be neglected.
Influence of Food on Cows.
Rich food will decrease the quantity
of milk, but will increase the quantity
of butter.
Kind Treatment Pays.
Milk and feed regularly, and with
kind treatment the cows are certain to
respond.
e Y
Hints For Milk Farmers
Hand separator cream needs to be
kept as carefully as any other kind of
cream. Progress in this has been
made but' slowly 'since the introduction
of the gathered cream system, or in-
deed since the introduction of the hand
separator. Considering tite small vol-
ume of gathered cream compared with
the whole milk system, there seems lit-
tle reason in every farmer not having
a perfect arrangement for keeping it.
But it must be acknowledged that so
far as we are able to learn by far the
greater part of the eream from hand
separators is still kept in cellars with
vegetables and all kinds of things that
have an odor that is not an addition to
the flavor of the cream. --Hoard's Dairy-
man.
Give the Cow a Chance.
Kind and considerate treatment goes
a good way in getting the best results
from the boy or hired man. Try it on
your cows.
The Good Cow.
The good cow is cheap at a big price,
and the poor cow is dear at a very low
price, Test the milk from each cow,
and do not let a cow that is only
worthy of a place as a beef animal
work you.
Keep Milk Clean.
This is the time in the year when
farmers, not realizing the danger, allow
the milk to Stand in unclean stables,
where it takes up objeetionable odors
that may be present. The result is
tainted milk and a deterioration in the
quality of butter.
Sampling Milk.
The Weighing and testing of one mess
of milk are of no video, but the milk
should be weighed and sampled several
consecutive millings if a true average
production of the cow is to be obtained.
--hoard's Dairyman.
When to at Hay.
All grasses designed for hay should
be ettt when itt that stage of growth
that contains the most protein. With
timothy clover, redtop, blue grass, or-
chard glass and alfalfathat means
jest before or at the beginning of the
blossoming stage. One pound of hay
Made at this stage and cttred rightly is
worth two pounds for milk making or
