Canada can get good advertising abroad by publlshtug to the world the facts that her trade has grown from $239.000,000 in Nee to 5470 000,000 in 1903, and the deposits in the banks -from $153.000,000 to $423,000,000. No other couutry in the world, says the the Toronto Star, can show the same rate of growth is the same period. Premier Laurier has been appealed to :by many of his followers for a definite ;flint as towhether they may get ready tor a campaign this, fall, or look for an other session of the present parliament. ',Sir Wilfrid's only answer has been to :advise that they should each and all en- joy a good holiday after their sessional labors, adding that be intended to do so himself. Members are left to figure oat for themselves what is meant by this counsel. The Weekly Sun, ite spite of its pro- fession of independence, is very unjust to the defence of the Laurier Ministry's iivaneial policy when it represents Mr. Fieldiug as basing that defence merely on the ground that "the country is more prosperous now than it was when the present Government attained power." Mr. Fielding's main contention was that a growing country must face a growing expenditure, just because it is expanding. Apparently The Sun would like the country to stagnate. -Toronto Globe. The work of the Ontario immigration officials at the Union Station at Toronto has been more successful this year in placing men on the farms than ever be- fore. Figures compiled show that fully three thousand men have arrived at that office and been directed to farmers need- ing help. These figures do not include the mechanics, nor those who found work for themselves, nor those who were re- ceived by friends, or who got off the train east of Toronto. It is estimated that altogether not less than 5,000 immigrants came to Ontario this year. The figures of arrivals show a eubstattial increase over previous years. The Minister of Inland Revenue is tak- ing measured for a more vigorous enforce- ment of the Act which is intended to prevent the edulteratiou of foods. An analysis recently made of ground spices, pepper, allspice. mixed spices, cassia, and cinnamon, cloves, and ginger showed that of 188 samples collected only 88 were geuniue. Seven of the remainder were classed as doubtful, and 93 as adulterated, the examination showing the presence of chips and dirt, charcoal, hairs, stone, husks, and shells, sand and sweepings. Since theu au aualy sis was made of raspberry, strawberry, plum, peach and miscellaneous jams and jellies, which went to show that only 14 samples oat of 74 were genuine, five were claesed as doubtful and 55 as adulterated, containing glucose, coal tar, dyes. salicylic acid and other for- eign substance. In some cases the mixing was not positively injurious to users, in others it was, but in either ease the public was deceived and mis- led in open defiance of the law of the land. For Backache and Kidney Disease Dr. Chase's Kidney -Liver Pills are the most prompt and effective treatment obtai sable.

In the city yoii, may not know the man who lives neat" door. Living, including house rent, is (parer; the air is less pure than that of the country; life therefore is less healthy and not so long. Farming, meanwhile, is being made less manual, more scientific, and more inter- esting by the improvements whioh our Agricultural College under its late Pres- ident, has been largely the means of iri- troduciug. It will soon be, if it is not already, on a par in those respects with any city employment." HOME DUTIES. (Stratford Beacon.) Speaking of the demand for a curfew hell bylaw in Torouto the Globe calls at• tendon to the fact that "the first and the immovable responsibility for the train- ing of the children, for their educatiou, for their social development, for their moral equipment, by natural law and by Divine appointment, rests on the parents in the home. Nothing but weakness and loss, alike to the children and to society, comes from the substttation of the offi- cers of the state for the parents iu the home. The breakdown of the home, the surrender of paredtal responsibility, and the weakening of family life are the precursors of inevitable social and na- tional degeneracy. The unit of society is the family. This excellent doctrine, which has been preached on many occasions iu The Beacon's columns, is supplemented by some equally sensible remarks in the Hamilton Times. "If the homes are right," says the Times, "the society will not be far wrong. We hear too much these days about what the state should do -too mach about unloading the duties of the parents upon the public schools. the police magistrates, the public insti- tutions of the country; and too little of parental responsibility. Some people appear to entertain a sort of hazy notion that the parent's duty is done when the child is able to toddle out into the street, and that thereafter the state ought to care for him and be responsible for his education and his behavior, even to pre- scribing and teaching him certain re- ligious doctrines. There is dauger in this sort of thing. We need a campaign of parental education. Cherish the home; enforce home training. and the state will be the gainer. CANADA A POWERFUL RIVAL. The Baltimore San notes that the Northwestern Miller finds Canada de- stined to become a lornnidable rival of the United States in the exportation of grain, if it does not take possession of the foreign market In 1900 the wheat crop of Western Canada was not over 20,000.000 bushels, but in 1903 it was about 80.000.000 bushels. A vast area, estimated at 13,000,000 acres, is suitable for wheat. The Sun goes on to say :- "On this area, at Manitoba's rate of production, the crop would be over 800,- 000,000 bushels, or much more than the United States produces. The yield is high in Canada,often reaching 25 bushels to the acre. In 1903 the average was for the United States 12.9 bushels per acre, for Minnesota, 13.1 bushels for North West Canada 19 bushels, and for Manitoba 16.4 bushels. Besides wheat, ether grains are largely produced, as, for example, 50,000,000 bushels of oats and 10,000,000 bushels of barley, De- velopment is rapid, since farmers in the Uuited States are selling their high- priced land to invest in the cheap virgin soil of the Northwest. 'We may, there- fore, expect,' said Mr. Kappen, in a paper read to the Nattonat Grain Deal- ers' Association recently at Milwaukee, *within a comparatively few years to see the United States give place to Can- ada as the chief wheat -producing country of the world. It will take time, it will require a lot of railway building and a great influx of population and broad general development to bring this about, but it is coming.

The cruel are always cowardly. Good turas aspiration into ambition Where clothes reign character abdi- cates. It's but a slippery step from smartness to sin. Nurse a misery and yon cultivate a monster. Cheer instead of complaint is the mark of the saint. A man gets fame in haven by a good deed done in secret. A man shows his dependence on Gad by kis diligence for God. God will not fill your heart because you empty your head. Turn your back on the sun and you must live in the shadow. Faith is the only eye with which it is safe to look at the fatnre. The man who lives by tricks finds them to be backhanded traps. God oau make more out of a weak man than he can oat of a wabbly one. People who calculate on an eleventh hour repentance always die at 10:30. The trees we raise and not the ones we drop from determine oar worth. It's no use praying for a three-foot stream when you have only a one -inch pipe - Everybody says "amen" to the man ,vho prays to be taken oat of this wicaced world. Some men are never happy except when they think how much worse the other fellow has it. When a man pats out his shingle on the roof the Lord is likely to let him sit down in the basement awhile and think. ICs mighty foolish to get so anxious about saving the whole world that you haven't tune to do a thing for your own ward. People who never give more than chicken feed tothe church h are the first to complain if they don't get chicken pie in every sermon. Come, Boat Me O'er to Charlie, (Hobert Burns.)

No matter how fat,an animal inay be or how good its loI•in, if it is not in perfect health the best quality of meat cannot be obtained, If suffering from fever, or any serious derange-- iiwnt of the system,'. the flesh will not bo wholesome food. It;,iesh of animals that have recovered from the ravag- es of disease before slaughter is not likely to cure well and is very diffi- cult to keep after curing. Bruises, broken limbs, or like accidents all have the same effect on the meat as ill -health, and, unless the animal can be killed and dressed immediately af- ter such accident it is not best to use the meat for food. A rise of two degrees in the animal's temperature at or just previous to Slaughtering 11 almost sure to result in stringy, gluey meat and to oleate ui, tendency to sour in curing. Condition. -First clues meat can- not be obtained from atlllnlnti; that are poor in flesh. A reasonable remount of flesh must be present to give juiciness and flavor to the flesh, and the fatter an animal is, within 1'easotitible limits, the better will be the meat. The Yl•esencp of large utnotnite of fat is not essential, iioW- ever, to wholesome neat and it id far more important that an animal be in good health than that it be ex-. trene1y fat. It is not wise to kill an animal that, is losing flesh, as the muscle fibres are shrinking in volume. and contain correspondingly less wa- ter. As a consequence the meat is tougher and dryer. When an animal is gaining in flesh the opposite con- dition obtains and a better duality of meat is the result. Also a better product will be obtained from an animal in only medium flesh but gaining rapidly than from a very fat animal that is at a standstill or los- ing in flesh. Breeding and Quality. -Quality in pleat is largely dependent on the health and condition of the animals slaughtered, and yet the best quality of meat is rarely, if ever, obtained from poorly bred stock. The desired "marbling" or admixture of fat and lean is never of the best in scrub stock, nor do the over -fed show -ring animals furnish the ideal in quality of meat. -there seelns to be a con- nection between a smooth, even and deeply fleshed animal and nicely marbled meat that is not easily ex- plained. Fine bones, soft luxuriant hair and mellow flesh are always de- sirable in an animal to be used for nkat, as there are indications of small waste and good quality of pleat. Age for Killing. -Age affects the flavor and texture of the meat to quite an extent. It is a well known fact that meat from old animals is more likely to bo tough than that from young ones. The flesh from very young animals lacks flavor and is watery. An old animal properly fattened and in good health would be preferred to a younger one in poor condition. Cattle are fit for beef at eighteen to twenty months if proper- ly fed, though meat from such ani- mals lacks in flavor. The best beef will be obtained from animals from twenty to forty months old. A calf should not be used for veal under six weeks of age, and is at its best when about ten weeks old and raised on the cow. Hogs may be used at any age after six weeks, ' but the most profitable age at which to slaughter is eight to twelve months. Sheep may be used when two or three months old and at any time thereaf- ter. They will be at their best prev- ious to reaching two years of age, usually at eight to twelve months. Preparation of Animals for SIangh- ter.-An animal intended for slaugh- ter should be kept off feed from twenty-four to thirty-six hours, oth- erwise it is impossible to thoroughly drain out the veins when the animal is bled, and a reddish colored unat- tractive carcass will be the result. Water should be given freely up to the time of slaughter, as it keeps the temperature normal and helps to wash the effete matter out of the system, resulting in a nicely colored carcass. The care of animals previous) to slaughter has a considerable effect on the keeping qualities of the meat. In no instance should an animal he kill- ed immediately after a long drive or after a rapid run about the Pasture. The fish of an animal that has been overheated is' usually of a pale color and very often develops a sour or putrid odor within three or four days after being dressed. Tlruises cause blood to settle in that portion of the body affected. presenting an uninviting appearance. and often cause the loss of a cnnside'rable por- tion of the carcass. '!•herefore, a thir- ty-six hour fast, en f water, t o a»t 1 t o r P V careful handling, and rest before slaughter are all important in se- curing pleat in the best condition foe nn. au mg, curing and keeping of Aiastratlah Terenteal stye.

IP ExperltneIlts conducted at the Storrs agricultural experiment station for the purpose of finding out the cost of rais- ing calves up to the age of six months, show the following results, says Rol- ,. stein-Frtciian Register: Two lots of calves were experimented upon, The. first were fed new milk for four weeks; then skim milk was substituted for IL. With the second lot this cluuige was made when the calves were less than two weeks old. Rowen hay, or hay cut for the second time in the same season, was kept before them constant- ly. The first lot was not given any' grain, but the others had grain given them for the last two months. The first set gained one and one-fourtic pounds per day per calf, the second one and one-third pounds, both of which galas were considered as satis- factory, as these calves were destined fer a dairy herd, and it was therefore net desirable that they should lay on fat. The cost of the first set averaged. 47,3 cents per week and that of the see-, and 44,0 cents. ' Similar experiments to show the cost of raising calves to a greater age were. also made, the period of testing betne two years and eighteen quo, When, Ked 185 days as above, 188 days at pasture, with one pound of grain per day; 181 days in the stable at 50 cents l;er week, and (2;:'ri; pt pastnrej. with 120 pounds of gran, the average cost per animal was estimated at $33.20. Convenient Cow Stan. The illustration of the so called mod- el stall, which Is taken from Hoard's Dairyman, shows a single stall math. • !;Nsq esia runt MODEL STALL. one side entirely removed. It may be as narrow as one pleases, but the width and length should be proportioned to the size of the occupant. We do not' consider three and one-half feet any too much room for the cow of average size. The construction of this stall is such that when standing the rack in: front forces the cow back a few inches, so that all droppings fall well to the rear. The bar across the stall at the rear should be fastened to the floor just in front of the cow's hind feet when standing with her !lead to the' rack. This bar serves the double pur- pose of retaining the bedding in place and of encouraging the cow to move forward when about to lie down, bring- ing her head under the projecting rack. The bottom of this rack should by from thirty-five to forty inches. above the floor. A shallow manger may ex- tend ztend across the full width of the stall in place of the slanting box. The cow is fastened with a halter about the head, and instead of remov- ing the headpiece every time the cow is to be loosened attach a stout safety snap to the end of the rope and snap this into the ring tinder the throat, let- ting the cow wear the headpiece all the time. Atm of the Holstein Breeders. The aim of the Holstein -Friesian. breeders is to produce milk fit for all: purposes -for home, village or city con- sumption, for cheese factory or butter factory, for the production of cream for the creamery, for ice cream or for village and city use, and the Babcock test and centrifugal separator enable him to do all this. -M. H. Gardner in Pacific Homestead. Testing Milk. Three vital points in testing milk -a true sample of the cream, an exact quantity of the sample in the test bot- tle and reading the test accurately. Avoid Stable Contamination. Stables with too many cowy odors In them are not tit to keep milk in, and separating should be done in another place. The Cow and the Farre. Professor Curtiss, at the recent dairy convention at Cedar Rapids, Ia., told why dairying maintains the fertility of the farm. He said: "In selling $1,000 worth of wheat from an Iowa farm at present prices we sell with it about $350 worth of fertility. In selling $1,- 000 worth of corn we sell about $250 worth of fertility -or constitutents which would cost the farmer this amount if. he were obliged to buy com- mercial fertilizers to maintain the fer- tility of the fare[. But we can convert $1,000 worth of corn into beef, pork or mutton and sell It in that form and not remove over $25 worth of fertility from. the farm, or we can convert $1,000 worth ofes, f d into butter and not re= mOVQ sl ogle dollar's worth of fertil- ity fa ti%ity with it. Butter is almost wholly pure fat or carbon, and it adds nothing to the value or productive capacity et: the soil." Cost of Keeping a Cow. The average cost of keeping a cow a year hat been Variously estimated by experiment stations in difterent loceil- ties at from $35 to $45, says Farmer's Advocate. The tneans of keeping the record of the income, enabling the 'Weeding out process, are now available to every dairyman. The B abcok tet- _ wbieh it a simple means of determin- ing the richness of the milk itt fat, and the *cities for determining the yield or milk enable the farmer to ascertain thele Value of Itilik and butter production at eacb cow in his herd and whether the IAA regroe of profit or IOU. a
