B.RLLIOTT, PIIBLIsnxR AND nROPUIZTC141 THURSDAY, SEPTEMBER 17, 1908. NOTES AND COMMENTS By the Governor in Council, Thurs- day afternoon an order was passed ap pointing Colonel the Hon. T. M. Gibson of Hamilton, to the Lieutenant-Gover- norehip of Ontario, iu snceessinn to the retiring Lieutenant -Governor, Sir Mor- timer Clark, whose five-year term of office expired last spring. The rush of settlers to get Iands in the Canadian West during the Best five days of September beat all records The total number of homesteads grant- ed was 2,275 of the pre•emotions, 1,481; of homesteads purchased 128 and of joint homestead and pre-emption entries, 178, melting a total of 4,662 quarter sections, containing 649,920 acres. While some philosophers are pleading that Laurier ought to be turned ont be. cause of the existence of what is known as the patronage system. Mr. Bordeu is trying to cheer np hie followers with the sight of four premiers, whose chief glory ie that they nee the patronage system for the benefit of their friends, just as in the good old days Sir John Macdonald did before them, -Montreal Herald. Not many years now remain to me. The snows of winter have taken the place of spring; but, however I may show the ravages of time, my heart still remains young, and I feel that I have as touch strength as ever for the Bernet) of my country In spite of my sixty years, of whioh so muoti hes been spent in the service of the Dominion, I am sure that some time remains for me yet to oppose those sinister combinations, and especially have I a tooth for the unholy alliance between the Castors and the Conservatives, . . . Our great- est work for the advancement of Cana- da is the construction of the Grand Trunk Pacific, whioh means so much for our country's future, and with which I hope my name will be chiefly associated The more we know about this line the more we see its advantages to Canada. In feet, its advantages are already being felt, as even now it is tak- ing its part in the transportation of the weatern wheat crop. Within two years we shell see this line running from Moncton to Winnipeg, opening up traffic to new empires of the north, where generations yet to come will be able to settle and make their livelihood. I tell yon in all sincerity that I want to carry the coming general election in order to finish this great work, and when it is finished I shall be content to say with the prophet of old: "Lord, let thy ser- vant depart to piece." -Premier Leer- ier in his speech at Sere', Qae., lest week. ,t uadne y .Troubles FROM THE LiVER 10 his stuly of kidney disease, Dr. Chase, ttie fames Receipt Book author, found that a6 per cent. of the cases arose as a direct re. suit of liver and bowel disorders, and working co this idea led to the discovery of his cele- brated Kidney.Livcr Pills, the only Kidney •ereeine having a tontbined action on liver and bowels as well.

The country is upon the eve of a great political oampaign. It is praot•toally certain that within two months the general election tor the Dominion Parliament will be held, Ocinoident with the ennonn0ement of the eleotions comes the report of an election trial in Nova Scotia with evidence of political corruption of the lowest sand most re- volting oharaoter. The statement is made that the trial has been brought on at this time for the sake of its effect upon the approaohzug elections. How- ever that may be, one would hardly ex. peat that the effect, from the party standpoint, would be very great. Let us hope, however that these saddening dis closures may have the effect of increas- ing the desire and the determination of those who Dare for their country's wel- fare that the Doming election shall be conducted as far ae possible in a clean and honorable manner. If politics were only a game, it should be played fairly in a accordance with the rules. Bat it is far more than a game. National and moral interests are involved. Thera is no party whose return to power le so essential, no issue at stake of snoh tran- scendent magnitude, that it is worth while for men to break the laws and debauch their fellows for the sake of gaining their desired end. Let good men unite for a clean election -The Presbyterian. SAMPSON'S STRENGTH Will Not Resist the Pulling Down Influence of a Kidney Aching Baek The strongest man or woman with a back constantly aching find daily exist- ence a struggle. Its the same way with urinary troubles. Booths Kidney Pills Dura these ailments. Wingham people prove this statement. R. Knox, of Centre Si., Wingham, Ont., says: "I would frequently suffer with a dall, bearing down pain across the small of my back and extending around my sides This was particularly noticeable when I would find ocoaeion to stoop or sit in one position for a time. There was a Ianguidnesa and tired feel- ing and although I knew this to arise from inactivity on the part of the kid- neys, and I had several remedies, yet I could not find the desired results until I procured Booth's Kidney Pills at Mr, 1lcKibben's and commenced their ace. The dell pain and siokness soon depart- ed, however, and has not mince cottoned.I feel better and stronger geeraily and although I have not been accustomed to having my name used I feel that Booth's Kidney Pills are reliable and worthy of recommendation," • Sold by all Dealers, Price 50 cents, The R T.

In Ootober, when leaves and flowers are dying, when Nature is closing her eyes for her long sleep, it is only those of experience who era,: "This ie the best time to start a garden." There is always a setback to a garden started in the Spring, because ft is not long enough from the time growth be- gins until the hour of bloom to give many plants their full chance to expand before sending forth their flowers. A plant mast almost teach maturity be- fore it blooms, which indeed it only does that it may form seed, and thus perpetu- ate itself to posterity. To start a gar- den early is often the secret of anocere. By preparing the belie and hordern in the Autumn, digging them out about two feet deep, placing inverted sod in the bottom, and finally filling them up with layers of manure, light soil and tbp-dreeaing much time is saved in the Spring, when the irresistible riot•a•min- nteto loose feeling is in the air. Be- sides, there is something about * well- ettl s le bed that flowers wee ]ike batter than one that is quite new. If in the Spring these Autumn -prepared bed* requtre extra mulching or fertilizing, it fa a mattet that is very easily attended to. When the bode and borders ere matte, the garden should be cleared of all gar. e material.

(Toronto Globe, Sept 10th ) The Liberals of Ontario who assem• ble'd at the annual meeting of the Gen- al e >• Reform Association yesterday ex- hibited a spirit worthy of the beat traditions of militant Liberalism. Con- sciona that they have in Sir Wilfrid Laurier a leader of splendid gifts and splendid service, appreoiating that they have a canoe which spells prosperity for Canada end good government for the people, they have buckled on the armor for the coming Federal fray with a wholehearted determination to parry the flag t0 victory. This spirit found manifold expression at yesterday's meet- ing, and the note of enthusiasm which characterized the proceedings through- out has only to be sustained and trans- lated into action before and at the polls to plane the result beyond doubt. No- thing could have been better adapted to inspire Liberals with oonfidenoe than the ringing address of the President. "We enter the approaching Federal (demean contest with oonfidenoe and enthasiesm," he d••clared. "We believe that a greater trust than ever before will be placed in our leaders for their fidelity to the pantry's interests, and their far seeing and courageous adminis- tration of Canada's business and gov- ernment, and we are not dismayed by the furious scolding and overstatements of oar opponents." That was the key note, and it was emphas ztd by the Minister of Railways in his stimulating mea age. "I have some knowledge as to polirioal conditions in the Province," wrote Mr. Graham, •'and you can entire your friends that the outlook is most encouraging, and every indication points to increase rather than a decrease in the strength of L beraliem. Let every man do his daty and victory is mitered." These are not the words of a vain boast• er, but the expression of a conviction on the part of a leader who has faith in hts principles and bis party, and has tour age to Iead where Ontario Liberals should not hesitate to follow. A total of $79,924 bales of cotton in the United States ginned from the growth of 1908 to Sept, 1 and 6,613 am tireinrieri iz ee are announce ce i a the oen- ens report on cotton ginning rained Mn.o day. Thi" is against 200,278 baled at the corresponding date In 1907, 4,080 active ginneries; 407,551 bake, and 6,629 ginneries in 1906, and 476,565 bales and 8,229, gintleriea in 1905. This figure counts round as heat bales. The report inolndes 20,514 round bale! for 1908; 11,508 for 1907; 21 855 for 1906 and 22,- 281 for 1905. The report alto embrabes 1,324 sea inland bales for I908; 85 for 1907, 53 for 1906, and 1,145 for 1905. The Telephone and Farm Life. The elephone is coming to the farm- house, says the Toronto Saturday Night, in a recent editorial, and in ten years they will be numbered in thousands They will revolationiza farm life,ohauge its oharaoter altogether. People will be brought together as never before, and the isolation of the family, so trying to womankind, and from which young people so eagerly escape, will be ae an end. The lonesome farmhouse will no long- er be shut off from the world, but will be linked np with the rest of the nation. The news will eoatter across country while yet it is news. The housewife can be in instant connection with her neighbor, or with her sister, five miles away. The husband, before driving to town, can ascertain what produce he oan sell, and at what price, if he takes it with him. The doctor, is case of accident, can be summoned in time to save life. In short, the whole black grudge of the sociable human family against the lonely country life, will be dispelled, for they will always be in hail of their friends far and near. It will cost some money, bat it will, from the first earn more than it will cost, and be worth a hnndred•fcld more. TORN BY WILD BEASTS. History of a Great Discovery. The old Roman heroes who ever° torn by wild beasts at their fights in the now ruined Colosseum at R'me, the Greek oharioteera, and the gladiators who made fighting a profession, all knew the virtues of herbal essences (suoh as are contained in Zam•Bak) for skin injnriss and diseases They would apply at Dight their Secret herbal balms, and in a few days would again be ready for com- bat.

Success With Sheep. An Ontario breeder says: I think It will pay any farmer to have a few' sheep, as I have never experienced a year when they have not paid • lee. I prefer Cotswolds because they are strong, hardy sheep, ;hood wool and fair mutton. The last few years we could not get enough good rams to meet the demand of the ranchmen who want them to cross on the finer bred ewes so as 'to produce more wool and mut- ton. I would not advise keeping over twenty breeding ewes on a hundred acre farm. If the farm is low and inclined to be wet, ten will be plenty. I would g o d not• advise a b 1 e neer to buy ny show sheep or high priced animals. Buy from a reliable firm and get a few ewes at reasonable prices, and with good care you will meet success. 0 To grow baby pork successfully good pasture must be provided. The pigs must be giveu a fair chance by coming into the world strong and lusty, and they must be kept growing in prime physical condition from the start. Bone and flesh forming foods must be fed end comfortable and cleanly sur- roundings provided. Plenty of clean water to drink at alt times is impor- tant. A stunted pig is bad property, as he clever really gets over. it. Good pasture and care may help him, but he has lost time and vigor which can- not be wholly regained. Feeding the Youngsters. Wben first weaned feed the pigs from three to five times a day. While with their mother they took their meals at least every two hours, and too sud- den a change is detrimental. After they get to growing vigorously cut down to two meals a day, and when they weigh seventy-five pounds each and are on good pasture feed once a day, and that at night. THE SWINEHERD. A Breeder's Advice. A successful breeder gives this ad- vice: Keep a record of the number of pigs in each litter. It doesn't pay to rely on memory in these things. Look 'well to it that the mother hogs have the driest, most • comfortable quarters possible. This often tells the story of the little rooters she is able to bring to market for you. Always select the young sows from the most prolific old ones. if a Sow has fever at far- rowing time and eats her pigs, it fa your own fault, not hers. Keep her active, give her a laxative diet no Corn and plenty of pare, clean water to drink and there will be no trouble. What! Sweep the hogpen? Yes; that is what one of the best hog men does every single day. Do you think bei Would keep it up if he did not think it paid? Give Variety In Pig Feeds.
