But the system is of staunchest of Conservative organs, in little aoeonut so long as it is thoroughly a recent issue reads Leader Borden and hie followers a sharp lesson, claiming that the policy pursued is detrimental to the best interests of the party. The Gazette says Mr. Borden "has destroyed the Conservative party in the provinces of Quebec, Nova Scotia,and New Brans. wiok, and will do so in Ontario if he does not change his tacties." The great trouble with the Conservative party to- day is that he has permitted control to Flip out of his hauls. A clique of pol- iticians bas ignored his advice and be now finds staunch allies ,like the Gazette nailing for a halt. The Ottawa Free Press gives currency to the report that Hon. Gee. W. Ross is to be appionted governor of one of the new provinces. There is good reason to believe, however, that such a proposition has never been broaohed in official circles. It is doubtful whether the offer, even if it were made, would be entertained by ear. Ross. In spite of his physical handicap, Mr. Ross' friends would doubtless like to see him remain a while longer is active politics, and his own inclination probably points in the same direction. When the time comes for ear. Ross to retire the general opinion is that the best the country could offer would be none too good for him. The largest Creamery concern yet formed in Canada is being organized under the name of the Canada Produce Company, Limited, capitalized at $250,- 000. Toronto, Montreal Loudon and Hamilton capitalists are interested, and the Dominion charter has been applied for. The company will operate a cream= cry in the vicinity of Montreal, having a understood. The main point is to see that no unnecessary or unprofitable out- lays are made, that value is obtained for every expenditure, and that taxation is kept down to actual needs of suck a policy. The best proof of this ideal has beeu kept is :mind is the paucity of Op- position criticism. The chief lesson of this accounting is the need of economy in the immediate future. During the buoyant years we have enjoyed sines 1897 there has been an increase in the net debt of Canada of only 6278,232, or an average for the eight years of $34,799. This good show- ing has been made without stinting any public service, and without failing to to respond to any of our growing pnblio needs. Bat revenues from indirect tax- ation depend largely on the courses and currents of trade, and the year shows that expenditures must not be deter- mined or established on the assumption of continuous rapid increases in revenue. In such tariff changes as have been made inequalities have been removed by increases. White or corroded lead bad been taxed 5 per cent. and the new duty will be 30 per cent., the subsidy given lead mining interests not being regarded as sufficient to compensate the manufac- turer for the general expense of protec- tion. The effect on paintmakers has been equalized by an increase of the duty on ground white lead from 25 to 85 per cent. A favor has been extended to the importers of light wines from South Africa, and the requirement of direct shipment in imports of molasses from the British West Indies bas been modi- fied in the interests of trade via New- foundland.

Fielding, Minister of Finanoe, made an important statement as to American silver coin in this country. He said it was the Government's intention to export a large quantity of Uncle Sam's silver currency. This was due to the treatment accorded Canadian silver money on the other side of the line, Am- ericans as a rule refusing to accept it. Arrangements have been made with the banks to hold all United States silver I money passing through their hands and, ship it to the States, receiving Canadian ' coins in exchange. The Goversnientl would pay the express charges, and small commission of tbree•eighths of one per cent to the banks} for their services. Owing to the profit which arises front the coinage of silver the transaction would be a very advantageous ane to the Canadian public, 'elk, Lame, Aching Back ne3..ed from kidney disealse, , and made thin weary a cripple.

The deceased, who was. deaf and dumb and had only returned home a few days before from the Belle. ville Deaf and Dumb Institute for the holidays, in company with his brother a number of other boys went down to the Maitland river for a bathe, He could not swim, and while wading in the stream got out of his depth, and went down to a watery grave. His brother, Peter, who is 11 year:: of age, noticing his danger, went to his assist- anoe.

The ideal breeding place for disease germs is a weak stomach and digestive system. The food, instead of being as- similated, turns into a sour, sifmy, fer- menting mass, causing gases, distress after eating, bloating. nausea and flatu- lency. The poisonous germs that are given off from this undigested food enter the blood, and pimples, boils,and blotch- ed skin is the result. Nervousness and sleeplessness come more often from weakened digestion than from any other one cense. Rheumatism and gout are directly caused by an acid condition of the stomach. No ordinary food digestive can give Iasting relief. It is absolutely necessary if one wishes to be well, to use Mi-o.na, Swimming Time. (Pittsburg Post.) The river call! The river calla!

Variety of Food Ara Essentiats, The old saying that "an ounce of pre. vention le worth a. pound of cure" is certainly true in this disease of young chioltens, writes a porrespondent of Am- erican Poultry Journal, As I have had the chicken fever for over a quarter of a century, my experience might be of some value to abeginner, When I first tried my hand at raising chickens I would always lose quite a number with the gapes. When the gapes would put in an ap- pearance I was always ready to try every new remedy 1 chanced to hear of, One of the first cures 1 remember 05 hearing was to take ahandful (it air -slaked lime, put the same Into a tight box, give the box a shake, then insert the chick as quick as possible - for a moment and remove, As I had a brood of white face Black Spanish- at panishat the time affected with the dread dis- ease, I thought I would try it on one. I did so and succeeded in curing the gapes, but upon examination I found the chicken had lost the sight of one eye in the operation. Next I was told blowing tobacco smoke dawn the wind- pipe would kill the worm. X tried that treatment on a young game. The smoke killed the,worna a1I right, and the chick went the same route a moment later. Then I heard that by net, depositing' the droppings where the young chicks could get to scratch in them it would have the desired effect of preventing the gapes. T tried that and found F was not troubled so bad as formerly: Next I was told that by feeding cora- meal it would cause the gapes, As we used to use it quite extensively, I quit it and found we had better luck in not losing so many chicks. Then I was told if the mother hen was troubled with lice that would cause the chicks to have the gapes. I gave that matter some attention, with satisfactory re- sults. Then I heard that dampness was a breeder of gapes, so I gave that some consideration and received fur- ther benefits by keeping the chicks dry - I don't think I have lost .a dozen chicks from the gapes in the last five years, and by observing the following X am no longer troubled with the gapes: First.—Keep the henhouse and fowls free franc lice and the runs in a sani- tary condition, having no manure heaps of chicken droppings for the chicks to scratch in. Second,—When you set the hen rivet her a fresh nest, with new straw In same. - Third: When the chicks hatch put them and the hen in a nice dry place. where the hen can dust herself and the chicks be kept dry in damp weather. Fourth.—Feed chop feed for soft feed In place of cornmeal and. only feed what they will eat up readily with a relish, as I think .if feed is allowed tea remain where the chicks run over it it not only becomes sour and not fit for them to eat, but they also become tired of it quicker and on the whole will not eat as much. I also think the greater variety of food you give them the better they wilt do. THE LOSS FROM MUD. What Poorly Kept Roads Mean to the Farmer. Think of waiting for the mud to dry up -16,000,000 horses and mules idle its the stable; 54,000,000 a day for bora* feed; $28,000,000 aweek) Think of the loss of time and labor, the dwarfed and shrunken values of our farms, of the stack supply and good prices when the roads are impassable!
