McInnis,. Marion Bridge, N,S., has for Doan's Kidney Pills, (Hetrrites us): "For the past three years I have suffered terrible agony from pain across my kidneys. I was so bad I could not stoop or bend. I consulted and had several doctors treat me, but could get no relief. On the advice of a friend, I procured a box of your valuable, We -giving remedy (Doan's 1 idney Pills), and to my surprise and delight, I immediately got better. In my opinion Doan's Kidney Pills have Ito equal for any form of kidney trouble." Doan's Kidney Pills are 50 cents, per baa or three boxes for $1.25, Can be procured at all dealers or will be mailed direct on receipt of price by The Doan Kidney Pill Co., Toronto, Ont. Do not accept a spurious substitute but be sure and Set" Down's,"' For $1.35 We have made arrangements whereby we are able to give The Weekly Globe AND THE TIMES from now until Jan. 1, 1905, for the remarkably low price of $1.35. The Weekly Globe and Canada F %rmer will keep its readers in touch with the general news of all parts of the world, besides a great deal of reading matter of interest. to every member of the family. The Times gives the news of Wingham and surrounding country. This combination, at the low price, should result in large additions to our subscription list. •-4 Call, or address THE TIME WINGHAM, ONT.

Spitting is largely a habit and unneces- sary, almost exclusively indulged in by mon and boys. Has anyone ever seen a woman expectorating on the street; if so, did he continua to think of her with re. spent? Why should that be so discredit- able in a woman which is right in man? I1 the men would respeoi the law against spitting on the sidewalk, it would not be long before the boys would cease the nuisance. -Hamilton Spectator. If it is right that the wrongs of eight years ago should be exposed, why should the infamies of the general election of 1896, to say nothing of those of previous years, not to be brought to light? The passing of ten years has not put into the limbo of forgotten things the instructions sent out by the Conservates into the var- ious constituencies on the eve of the Fed- eral election of 1896, giving complete de- tails of how every kind of ballot trick was to be performed by the Conservative How Eczema is Recognized rZ most constant and trouble- some feature of eczema is the itching and burning which varies from that which is simply annoy- ing to that Which is positively un- endurable.

"I tried almost every remedy, was treated by doctors and druggists with little or no benefit. "Finally, a friend advised me to try Dr. Leonhardt'a Anti -Pill, and the re- sults have been truly wonderful. "My husband has used Anti -Pill, for rheumatism and was benefited greatly. We agree that Anti -Pill is a most won- derful medicine and heartily recommend it." This is a very strong recommendation. Anti -Pill is undoubtedly the greatest of family remedies.

Hers I am going to make a statement and undertake to prove it correct, says Mr. H.B. Gorier as quoted by Hoard's Dairyman. When a cow that produces 200 pounds of butter at a food cost of $39 and a labor cost of $12.50 is worth $35. The cow that pro- duces 400 pounds of butter annually, is worth $400; and the owner can make net $16 more after paying interest on the $400 than he can from the cows that pro. duce 200 pounds of butter. There is no mote labor connected with the 400 pound cows than there is with the 200 pound cows. The price at which butter has been credited, i. e, 20 cents a pound, is the net price from the creamery after the milking has been paid for. In this herd the increase cost of feed for the 400 pound cows was More than offset by the increased amount oLskim milk, so we have the profit over7he 200 pound cow. Two hundred pounds of butter at 20e, is 840, We have $400 invested in these cows, which at six per cent. interest is 824, which we will deduct from the $40 1 and we have have left $16 to the credit of the 400 pound coat*.

Three Rules By Which Sure Success May Be Attained. It has often been stated thatideal conditions for poultry raising exist off the farm, and yet there Is no other class of stock so neglected by the av- erage farmer. A31 the 4thee stock is provided with comfortable quarters, which are kept clean and free from vermin, while the henhouse is well supplied with cracks. broken windows and lice and has not been cleaned for two years. Ask any of these men why they don't keep more hens, and you will be told that they don't pay, that they only keep a few to supply eggs for home use and ehave to buy eggs in the winter. Now, how can, these objections be re- moved and poultry be made to pay on. the farm? First. -By replacing the mongrel 'birds with thoroughbred stook. This can be done at small expense by pur- chasing eggs and using the scrub hens as incubators. Second, -By providing comfortable houses for the birds. This does not necessarily mean expensive houses. Buildings good enough for all practical purposes ran be built of one inch lum- ber, pine or headlock, new or old, with inside surfaced so tbat they can be readily whitewashed and outside cov- ered with building paper with battens over cracks, Third. -By keeping the interior of the poultry house in a clean and sani- tary condition. HOOF INJURIES. Nail Wounds May Cauce Blood Poison- ing or Lockjaw. It has long been known that nail pricks and other similar injuries in the horse's hoof may lead to an in fection, followed by the formation of pus uncle. the horn of the hoof and a serious general disease of the horse or at least the loss of the hoof. In a bulle- tin of the South Dakota station Moore has recently reported results Obtained in a .number of cases from applying a strict antiseptic treatment to injuries of this sort, The method consists in paring away the horn of the hoof from the affected part until the blood oozes out. The hoof is then thoroughly washed in a solution of bichloride of mercury at the rate of 1 part to 500 of water, after which absorbent cotton saturated in a solution of the same strength is ap- plied to the wound and' the whole hoof is packed in cotton surrounded by a bandage and well coated with tar. This prevents any further filth from coming in contact with the wound. The operation must usually be done by a qualified veterinarian. Subse- quent treatment, however, can be ap- plied by the average farmer, since ail that is necessary is to pour a. little of this solution of bichloride of mercury upon the cotton which projects from the upper part of the bandage. The cotton will absorb enough of the solu- tion to keep the wound moistened and hasten the healing prbcess. If a remedy of this sort is not adopted in the case of foot wounds in the horse the owner runs considerable risk of serious infection, either blood poi- soning or lockjaw. . Rape May Be Sow Late. As a green feed fo • soiling -that is, cutting and feeding• green -or for pas- ture rape stands unequaled among crops suitable for swine. It should be sown in rows two feet apart on stub- ble, fallow or well rotted sod at the rate of three pounds per acre. It may be sown any time, as long as there re- main six weeks of growing weather before severe frosts are to be expect- ed. If intended to be pastured the pigs should be turned in before the rape comes up to the top of their shoulders. No greater area should be given than they are likely to keep down to that. height or lower. If not pastured or out too close to the ground it will keep on growing as long as the growing season lasts. Greater returns may be expected from soiling than from pasturing a given area. Feed- ing pigs will generally make more rapid 'gains when it is being fed to them in moderate quantities in pens than when at pasture on it. Breeding stock are likely to do better when they can use it as pasture. Feeding pigs receiving all the rape they will eat on rape pasture should receive somewhat less meal than they would if in their pens. From one-third to five -sixths of the regular ration should be fed; the more rapid the gain desired, of course, the heavier the ration. -J. H. Grisdale, Canada, in Orange Judd Farmer. Cement Work.. It seems that the foundation has much to do with the success of cement work, according to the Cement Era; for stable floors or clay or loam one should proceed as, follows: Excavate six to eight inches for foundations, fill in with cinders, crushed stone or sand; spread in three each layers and tramp well. Foundations should be well flood- ed and aIwed to stand for a week or more in order to become thoroughly compacted; smooth off to a level sur- face. To Drive Away Red Mites. To exterminate red mites remove nests, roosts and every movable ob- ject in henhouse, coat with good hot whitewash, a little crude carbolic acid added, ceilings, walls,. nests, creeks, floors and dropping boards thoroughly. When the house Is dry paint the roosts with a mixture of five parts of coal oil and one part of carbolic acid. Repeat again twice at intervals of a month, and your house wilrbo entirely free from these pests, aceording to Poultry Success. Care of Dairy Utensils.
