FIGHTING THE HOUSE FLY.
This is, a ques'.:m that comes to the,
fore every year e regularly as sum-
mer approaches. Instead of being re-
garded as a nes cry evil as was the
case some yeara back, movements are
at last being set on foot to systemati-
cally exterminate the pest, but even
now the majority of people do not
realize what a menace to life And what
a terrible disease -breeder it is. Screens
are all very well to keep the flies out
of our buildings. and fly -paper and
other exterminators undoubtedly fill
their own place, but what ought to be
impressed upon the public is the stern
necessity for removing the causes that
breed flies. This is one of the cases
where entire prevention is the only
means of cure, and cleanliness seems
to be both the beginning and the end
of the house -fly problem.
Across the border a systematic ,plan
of campaign has this yeL; been adopted.
Cash prizes are being o iered to the
pupils of the public sehoolc in many of
the cities for the best essays on "The
House Fly as a Carrier of Disease," in
the belief that in this way children and
parents both will become familiar with
sanitary principles. Florida, Tennessee
and Louisana have all adopted the prize
plan, and the Kentucky Federation of
Women's Clubs has signified its approv-
al, In North Carolina a "Fly Cate-
chism" is being distributed containing
questions and answers such as this
specipen one: "Do flies ever kill any-
one? They killed more American sol.
diers in the Spanish-American war
than the bullets of the Spaniards."
Travelling fly -exhibits are being put on
view, and insurance and other business
companies are issuing special circulars
containing fly facts. Within the last

Dr. Chisholm, member for East Hur-

his opposition to reciprocity in natural
products, despite the fact that but a
_few short months ago he said he would
hold up both hands for such an agree-
ment if it could be secured. The doc-
tor declared himself as favorable to
reciprocity, butppposed to the recent
agreement, but he failed to enlighten
-the people on the difference between
his kind of reciprocity and the kind the
present agreement embodies. We are
afraid the genial doctor has harkened
to the crack of the party whip in oppo-
sition to his own better judgment and
is now trying to ride two horses at the
same time. He hopes to square him-
self with his constituents for opposing
the present agreement by professing
sympathy with some other form of re-
ciprocity, and wants at the same time
to stand pat with his party friends
in the House by his vote against the
pact. The doctor is getting himself in-
to a pretty deep hole, from which he
will find, it pretty hard to extricate
himself when next voting time comes
round.-Seaforth Expositor.
other large cities have passed regula-
tions providing for screening from flies
and dust all food, candy, etc., offered
for sale. This last point, I might add,
is one that is sadly in need of being
considered in Toronto.
If we had no stables, and no sewage
discharging into open waterways, two
of the great causes of the fly pest
would disappear, but as we are likely
to have both for some time yet, we
must make our rules fit the situation.
If every housewife would realize the
seriousness of the question and try to
live up to the full extent of her own
responsibility (such as keeping garbage
cans covered, and when empty sprink-
ling them with lime or kerosene, keep-
ing the back yards empty of all refuse,
using every means to kill all flies that
get in past the screens), much could be
accomplished by the women alone in
minimizing the fly evil.
I shall be glad to receive expressions
of opinion on this subject from other
women who are interested. Surely it
is high time we united to do something
specific along this line.

Owing to the increase in the number
of crimes among foreigners, the Ontar-
in Government has instituted strict
regulations in cennection with the sale
of offensive weapons, in somd cases the
sale being prohibited. Commencing
with Saturday last, every person who
exposes for sale or sells any bowie -
knife, dirk, dagger, stiletto, metal
knuckles, skull cracker, or slung -shot,
or who sells a revolver, pistol or air -
gun to any person other than the hold-
er of a certificate from the provincial
or other police stating that he is entit-
led to purchase any of those things, is
liable to a fine of from $20 to $200. The
purchaser is equally liable under the
act. Records must be kept of all sales
made, with name of purchaser, and
failure to comply involves a fine of from
$25 to $200. A further penalty of $50
is provided for failure to report sales
every three months to the provincial
police. Offieers are given power to
search people who have reason to be-

DESTROYING BIRD LIFE,
The National Association of Audubon
Societies has received estimates that
the losses last year to food and cloth
products in the United States amount-
ed to over $10 for every person, chiefly
due to the destruction of feathered
insect -eaters.
The Government biological survey at
Washington has given statistics which
go far to prove that the cost of living
has been raised to cover $1,000,000,000
loss in agricultural produce from the
ravages of insects and rodents that
would have been largely wiped out if
their natural bird foes had been protec-
ed from feather men, market butchers,
and pot hunters.
Last year's cotton crop suffered a
loss of at least $25,000,000, paid for by
all who buy cotton goods, because the
birds that destroy the weevil are being
killed off.
Almost every edible product of the.
farm, excepttng meat, has decreased
in quantity and increased in price be-
cause of the lack of insect -eating birds
to drive away or destroy the field
pests.
Only recently some 75,000 meadow
larks were killed in Georgia because of
their beautiful plumage, yet seventy-
five per cent. of the diet of these birds
consists of crop -destroying insects.
CATARIVEI CANNOT BE CU 9RD
with LOCAAL PPLICATIONS, as they
cannot reach the seat of the disease.
Catarrh is a blood or constitutional dis-
ease, and in order to cure it you must
take internal remedies. Hall's Catarrh
Cure is taken internally, and aets dir-
ectly on the blood and mucous surfaces.
Hall's Catarrh Cure is not a quack
medicihe. It was prescribed by one of
the best physicians in this country for
years and is a regular prescription. It
is composed of the best tonics known,
combined with the best blood purifiers,
acting directly on the mucous surfaces.
The perfect combination of the two
ingredients is what produce such won-
derful results in curing Catarrh. Send

Lostes in Eggs.
In some branches of farming losses
occur which, if they could be avoided,
would enhance the profits of the pro-
ducer and lower the cost of production.
We have a striking example of this in
the egg trade. The avoidable losses
every year from broken, dirty, rotten
•and other maladorous conditions which
eggs get into is appalling. The poul-
try department of the Indiana Experi-
mental Station has been making a
study of this question. The eggs pro-
duced in that state hi 1910 were valued
at $12,000,000. The loss in bad eggs
for the same year is estimated et $2,-
210,000. The preventable losses are
summarized as follows; Dirties, 2 per
cent.; crokett, 2 per cent.; chicken de-
velopment, 5 per cent.; shrunken or
held, 5 per cent.; rotten 2i per cent ,
and monidy, 1 per cent.; or a total of
1.'7 per cent. of the annual egg product
wasted, V this loss could be prevent-
ed the cost of production would be re
-
clued, and the consumer would hot
have to pay so much for his eggs.
And I he did, the producer would get
more for what he had to sell. The
question naturally arise, Whe is res-
ponsible for the loss? The buyer or
dealer in eggs will naturally lay the
blame upon the producer, while the
latter will transfer a big share of the
blame to the fellow' who handles the
product after it leaves the farm, -

turned the tables on his fellow-legalite
not a great while ago. Mr. Haverson
approached Mr. Hossack with words to
the effect that he wished spiritual ad-
vice from the ex -preacher whom he
said he regarded as his father -confes-
sor,
"In the course of my defence of my
clients, the hotelmen," he said, "I
have to tell the same lie over and over
again. Now, suppose I have told a lie
fifty times, will I be punished in the
hereafter for one lie or for fifty lies?
Perhaps you'd better take a day or two
to think over that question before you
answer it."
"No need to do that," responded Mr.
Hossack. "The answer is a very sim-
ple one. You will be punished for
everyone you tell, but if it is any conso-
lation to you to know it the sentences
will run coneurrently."-Toronto Star.

the colors. Have the starch ready,
warm, and after rinsing the garment,
run through the starch, wring and

Fot washing laces and lingerie use
fine white soap, and to the suds add
borax.
If the lawn dresses are faded in
streaks and spots, boil the water to

of cream of tartar to each half gallon
of water, rinse well and dry. For
brightening the colors of muslin, dis-

colored goods in this after washing.
For giving the lace curtains the
cream color that fades in washing,
boil a handful of hay in enough water

then strain oft the water and make
starch of it, thin to snit, and run th
curtains through this.

MICROBES AND CATS.
From the Ohio State Journal,
A Chicago man is organizing to kill
off the cats. He is a doctor, and he
gives as a reason for his murderous in-
tent that the ;cats' whiskers are the
roosting places of numerous unsightly
and terrifying microbes, ready to
ponnee upon their victim at first chance.
In order to expedite the massacre of
the feelinee the doctor has invented et
sort of gibbet trap, which is said to
terminate the at in the most painless
manner. The doctor is now being as-
sailed on every side, especially by the
women, who have taken the cat tribe
to heart.
We do not expect this man's microbe
scare will result in the death of a
single cat. People are getting tired of
microbe scares, There a're too Many
of them. If they run from all the mi-
crobes that are discovered they will
keep on the run. A person should
know how to live -how to keep dean,
pure, temperate, brave, hopeful, and
then snap his fingers at the microbes,
especially those on the cat's whiskers.

contain a large percentage or
protein, which is a necessity to a
breeding animal. Give a variety
of small potetoes, apples and
roots with the grain ration.
Be sure there is no crowding
at the feed rack as the ewes
grow heavy with larab.
The ewe should be strong and
vigorous when she drops her
lamb. If the ewe is thin and
weak, there will be no profit in
her lamb.
Those who have been rising
sheep in recent years have had
no reason to complain. A, flock
well cared for adds substantially
to the farnl profits and exacts
but a minimum of care.

THE HEAVY DRAFT HORSE.
Most Profitable Kind For the Farmer
to Raise.
The heavy horse is a creature of
necessity. This being an age of maxi-
mum motive power, the heavy draft
horse has his place, writes an Ohio
horse raiser in Rural New Yorker. In,
the cities his worth has been long rec-
ognized, and the tempting prices paid
show well the competition. But it is
not alone in the cities that the heavy
horse is needed. The farmer of today
must use heavier equipment, botb ma-
chinery and horses. The farsighted
farmer has high grades or pure bred
brood mares ranging from 1,500 to 1,800
pounds to do his work. They also raise
a good draft colt for the trade. By
keeping possibly one or two extra
mares where heavy farming is done
each mare will do a good season%
work and raise a colt that will be
worth from $100 to $125 at weaning
time and $200 to $300 when ready to
go into plow at three years old.
For hest results mares and foals so
handled should be fed plenty of oats,
bran, clover or alfalfa bay and some

TIMES.
Marathon, the handsome Percher -
on stallion. whose portrait from life
is nere reproduced, is a typical
horse of his breed. Ile was the first
prize aged Percheron stallion at the

owned by Dunham's Oaklawn farm,

Marathon shows strong masculin-
ity, as indicated by vigorous, bold
carriage and massive, well crested
neck.
corn. A colt should never be allowed
to lose flesh, but should be kept grow-
ing until fully matured. We keep six
brood mares to do the work four
would do if not raising colts. When
we count the work the mares do we
would say that the profits on raising
heavy draft horses are greater than on
other lines of lire stock, with the pos-
sible exception of sheep, investment,
teed and care Considered.
It is possible that heavy horses May
get somewhat cheaper, but so long aa
the farmers themselves need an in-
creasing number of horses to draw the
heavy machinery required to cheapen
the cost and increase the production
of the farm crops there Is no danger
of heavy horses becoming Unprofitable,
at least not until production overtakes
consumption, and that is yet some time
In the fUture. I would reeoraMend to
the average farmer the Percheron as
the best all round draft horse. AS a
class he has better feet and limbs and
Is freer groin side belles and spliatti,
has More style, action and endurance
than any other breed of heavy horse.
These points alone create a great de-.
mend for the Pereheron in the cities. •
