Of theee 531, Wilson received 415 ; Roosevelt 104 ; Taft, 12. Estimates of the popular vote for president, so far as compiled from estimates gathered from the various States, give Wilson a little over 6,000,000 votes in round numbers ; Roosevelt 4,000,000, and Taft 3,500,000. The totals of the State will vary with revised returns, but the above general totals are not likely to be far wrong. * * * —The construction of the Panama canal is going to cost the United States $400,000,000, which is just the sum it cost Russia to build her trans - Siberian railway, says a special writer to the London Daily Mail. Some miles of the canal track are navigable, and the great Gatun Lake, with an area of 164 square miles; is gradually coming into existence. Lock -building is pro- ceeding apace. By September of next year, it is hoped that a boat may pass from the Atlantic to the Pacific through the canal. That does net mean the canal will be finished before the appointed time. Much will remain to be done, including dredging to a considerable extent, before the world's commerce will be invited to pay its money and take the short cut. --The rapid rise of the Hon. Louis Ooderre, K. 0., from the position of a rank -and -file member of Parliament to that of a cabinet minister within thirteen months from being first elect- ed to a constituency is a striking example of what can be achieved in Canadian public life when merit and opportunity find each other, Amongst the new French Canadian Conserva- tive members elected on September 21, 1911, Louis Corderre occupied a foremost position, The Montreal Her- ald (Liberal) says :—"As to the ap- pointment itself, it is not one that will excite any personal hostility, Mr. Coderre is deservedly popular, per- sonally, and so far as his party is concerned has earned by repeated sacrifices in its interests a strong claim upon its support." ** —Steps have been taken by the Inland Revenue Department to have standards for a variety of articles of food, including fruit and fruit pro - .4 ducts and panned fruits, vegetables, honey and lard properly defined. These precautions have been embodied in a series of regulations approved by the Governor General in Connell, r The advantage to the general public of Canada is clearly shown by the scope (I d demands of some of the regulations. Concerning canned fruit the regulation states :--"Canned fruit is the sound product made by steriliz. ing elean, sound, properly matured and prepared fresh fruit, by heating with or without sugars and keeping in suitable, clean, hermetically sealed containers ; and conforms in name to the fruit used in its preparation," The definitions of jam and marmalade ' state that they are the sound product made from clean, sound, properly matured and prepared fresh fruit, a, fruit pulp and sugar with or without apices or vinegar ; by boiling to a semi - send consistence; and conform in name to the fruit used in their pre- paration, `cot Citi Off.

All of it :false on mother ; Whatever may happen of are Is another worry for mother, Another burden to tear. No matter how many help her ; Do what they can, it's the slime, Ali of it falls on mother --- It seems to be part of the game. The sun shines sweet in the heavens, And then in a sudden the gloom --- The blow of an undreamt sorrow, The fading put of a bloom ; All of it falls on mother, Who goes on her weary feet A wonderful world of good humor, A marvel of keeping sweet. Ah, little lives of beginning, Be sure that you do your best To feed every moment the hunger For love in her aching breast, For that is all that sustains her, The thought that 'twill all be well That the burden should fall on mother With the sorrows that none niay tell, Many who oiler assistance, All tender and kindly and true ; But all of it falls on mother When things are really to do, Cling, little arm, with your loving ; Strive, brawny sons, with your might, To live that her heart may be happy In the thought that she's raised you right i FOR CONSTIPATION. A Medicine That Does Not Cost Anything Unless It Cures. The active medicinal ingredient of Rexall Orderlies which is ordorless; tasteless and colorless is a compara- tively . new discovery. Combined with other extremely valuable ingredi- ents, it farms a perfect bowel regula- tor, intestinal invigorator and a strengthener. Rexall Orderlies are eaten like candy and are notable for their agreeableness to the palate and gentleness of action. They do not cause griping or any disagreeable effect or inconvenience. Unlike other preparations for a like purpose, they do not create a habit, but instead they act to over- come the cause of habit acquired through the use of ordinary laxa- tives cathartics and harsh physic and perxnanently remove the cause of con- stipation or irregular bowel action. We will refund your money with- out argument if the do not do as we say they will. Tw ;s, 25c and 10c. ' Sold only at our . :e --The Rexall Store, J. W. McKibbon's Jailed By Request. Last week, Harry Lane, who work- ed in Brant Tp , for a well-known farmer, appeared before the 'nazis - trate in Walkerton and asked to be sent to jail for the winter. He said that he was robbed of his summer's wages at Toronto exhibition, and the magistrate complied with the request and gave him six months in the coun- ty jail, Howick Pioneer Gone. Mr. Thos. Gibson of Fordwich died Nov. let, aged 69. He came to Howick in 1868. He was License Commissioner for East Huron District for a number of years, and also Justice of the Peace, He resigned these to become Post- master in the year 1900, which position he held up to the time of his death in Fordwich. Besides his widow, he leaves three sons and five daughters. Education In Winnipeg. Winnipeg; Ministerial Association has asked for compulsory education of all children of school age, the safe- guard of the rights of every child to education under competent teachers, and in the English language. The Association also protests against re- cent action by the Manitoba Govern- ment as being tantamount to the restoration of separate schools. Dream Cured Him. Geo. McCool, a telegraph operator at Sitncoe, has suffered from a stiff knee which has made him partly a cripple for twenty years. The other night he dreamed he eras running in a foot race and leading a fast bunch of sprinters. In his excitement he leap- ed out of bed and was amazed to find his knee in perfect Condition, Doc- tors think the sudden action in jump• ing from the bed effected the cure. STOP HAIR FALLING TO DAY.

Dairy,Breed That Has Proved its. Mil- ' ity as a Butter Producer. Discussing the inerits of the various breeds of dairy cattle, the Kansas Farmer says: Perhaps the most numerous of the dairy breeds of cattle now in this state Is the Jersey, although the Holstein is a close second. Other breeds are more or less rare. The Jersey has been called the city loan's cow because of the fact that she gives very rich iniik and a saittll quantity when compared with the holstein. The Holstein is the farmer's cow because of the very large yield which furnishes a fair amount of butter fat and a large amount of milk for pigs. She is also a desirable aniwai for supplying the milk route. The Jersey is rather a small and dainty feeder, while the holstein is a gross feeder, capable of assimilating large quantities of grain and forage. These are he two extremes among the tuore popular of the dairy breeds of cattle, and a desire has been felt on the part of many farmers and dairy- men for an animal which will produce the rich milk of the Jersey with the larger quantity of the Holstein. Such an animal ltas not been found. but it is approached in the Guernsey. The Guernsey had its origin in the island of that name In the British channel. Together with the Jersey, both breeds were formerly called Al- derneys, and it was not until about 1873 that the Guernsey was recognized as a distinct breed In this country. Even now they are sometimes called the big Jerseys. Both the Jersey and the Guernsey had their origin in the Normandy cattle brought from France to the channel island. The history and breeding are practically bath the same so far as origin and methods are con- cerned. Each breed being confined to an island and all other breeds relic440 14:,VP - Guernsey cattle are noted for the rich color of the milli produced. An admirer of the breed says that the Guernsey cow does not stand for beauty, but for profit. What breed- ers are most concerned in is to con- serve and to improve that enviable quality possessed by the Guernsey cow Iii' producing milk that is not only rich, but which shows a rich, creamy color from which the high- est quality of butter can be churned. giousiy excluded from that island. It has been possible. through many gen- erations, to develop the present perfect and most powerfully prepotent auiwa�t. in the development or the Guernsey, however, more of the original charac- teristics of the parent stock have been preserved. This accounts for the dif- ference which now exists between thein and the Jerseys. The Guernsey color Is a light yellow and orange or buil', with considerable white. Dark colors approaching brown are some- times seen on cows and more frequent. ly on the bulls. Jerseys are most gen- erally solid color, ranging from light. yellow to almost blade. Guernseys are somewhat larger thee Jerseys, and they are larger in Amer- ica than they are in their island home. Ever Stile() 1850, when Guernseys were first imported to this country in num- bers, there has been a marked effort to increase their size. The settee thing is true of .jerseys, and the general run of both breeds, if American bred, is larger than those at home. One of the distinguishing features of the Guern- sey is tate Large amount of yelloi ' col; orieg matter deposited in the skin, This Is most noticeable where the hair is white around the ears, e3'es and udder, This Is thought to be e. good indication of eapacity to produce but- ter fat and is one of the points exam - Med by buyers of this breed of ettttle. It is certain that the tltternseys are economic feeders and excellent butter producers and that the butter its Well as the cream has a rielh yello' color. The Intbtr shows from 5 to t per cent of butter fat, thotigh instances are known where the percentage is Mtn higher. This fact, together with the larger yield of milk, especially adapts the Otternsey to the requtxemefts of a high clas,S. trade. • • 1 Stopped Work rot War, tatliroad ooxtttactors have been ob. lilted to dose down Work for the year as a eonsegnexee of the exodus of stat- garians for the war.
