MARCH 11, 1909, NATES AND COMM ENTS During the twelve months ending with December imports of merohandite into the United States aggregated $1,115,000,000. This was 008,000,000 Ieas than for the calendar year o4 1907. 'But, atthongh the allowing for the whole year is not a favorable one, there is evidence that the turn in tree tide has fairly set in, imports for the month of December being $20,000,000 greater than for the same month of 1907. In the United States as hi Canada business is again on the up -grade, and, given good crops this year, 1909 will mark the beginning of another period of pros- perity -Toronto Star. We have come to the season for wed- dings, one or two of which have been sumptuous, and for wedding presents, which are desoribed as most magnificent and costly. May not the costliness of wedding presents be carried too far? ,May they not come to bo almost a tax upon the purses of friends who, though their affection may be strong, and their good wishes most einoere, cannot well afford great expense? We sometimes hoar whispers of this kind. Suppose the method were adopted in this oats which is sometimes adopted in giving prizes or putting up monuments. Suppose a committee of the social circle were formed for the reception of oontribu- tions,all the friends to contribute as they pleased, and no names to be given? The committee might lay out the money so collected on something handsome and lasting, to be handed down in the family as a speaking memorial of the bappy day. Would this be feasible? If feas- ible, might it work wail?-Goidwin Smith. One day there arrived in Kingston. a young Scotch stonemason, and Agnes Maule Machu, in her interesting new book, "The Story of Old Kingaton," tells us that tbis youth, later to become prime minister of Canada, and to be known as Hon. Alexander Mackenzie, worked hie first summer as stonemason and was swindled out of his pay. There and then he seems to have acquired his lifelong prejudice against dishonesty. Done out of hie money, he secured em- ployment on It farm owned by John Mowat, father of Sir OIivor, but in 1843 resumed work in. Kingston as a atone- mnson.

The ogre of the adult blind is one to which the province of (Marie has thue tar given little serious attention, despite the foot that successive priuoipals of the 0, 1. B. have dealt with the matter time and again in their annual reports, and. the attention of the present and preced- tug governments: of the province has been directed to the urgent importance of dealing with this matter. In the latest report of Prinoipai Gard- iner, the Minden is again inade to the neglected oondition of the adult blind in the appended paragraph. Throughout the year I have had num• erects applioatione on behalf' of the adult blind, many of whom had last their, sight by accidents, while others were blind through old age or poor health. The question of providing for the adult Wed will not be settled until le is settled right, and the Arab stepp should be the establishment of workehops such as I described and recommended in my last report. I have accumulated consider- able additional information on this sub- ject, the report of The New York State Commission alone making a volume of nearly 600 pages, and the European re- ports contain valuable matter, but, with an intimation from the department that the Institution reporba have grown so large as to exceed practicable limits, I reluctantly omit many whiob I would like to place before the readers of this report. Letters from ex -pupils, from pupils, parents, from the heads et schools for the blind in Europe and Alnerioa, and from mullein, teachers and other interested parties assure me that the information supplied and the snggestiona made in the previous reports have whetted the appetite for more of the eamo sort. The beet way to get at the bottom foots and place them in possession of the public would be to fol- low the example of New York, Massaoh- neette and other states by appointing a commission to investigate the condition of the blind in Ontario and thereon to the Legislature. Let it not be forgotten that only ten per pent. of the blind are under twenty years of age, and not more than five per cent. are eligible for admiesion to this school, The fate of the average blind adult in this province is not by any mean, a sat- faotoey one. Few of these unfortunate people are able to become ,self-support- ing, even if they have passed through the Brantford Institution, and thus far no tangible effort has been put forth to make them reasonably independent, or to the that they are able to maintain themselves in comfort. Some kind of a work -shop for the adult blind has been frequently ad-looat• ed, but the first step to be taken, one would naturally;suppose, is to have a commission appointed to determine the number of adult blind in the province, investigate their oondition and to make recommendations as to the best means of helping them. -Brantford Expoeitor.

SWINE GAJ ALFALFA. Mctliado cf yarieue ettetttre O'•eederal In Feeding Thi Crop, Our Colora(io people years ago carne to the understanding that there Is no better forage crop for bogs than alfal- fa, bays Denver Field and Farm. Ono man estimates that It takes from one- half to one-third less eoru on alfalfa pasture than on a straight grain ration to make n bog ready for market. Many farmers let the hogs run on alfalfa un, til they are six months old, by which time they reach a weight of seventy. five to 125 pounds, feeding just a little grain. Then they feed heavily for about two months and sell the hogs at eight months old weighing 200 to 225 phi nds. Ono farmer W110 raises about a thousand hogs annually and who in .one year sold $11,200 worth of hogs makes a practice of raising his swine on alfalfa pasture until about eight months old, feeding one ear of; corn a head daily. He thou feeds earn, heavily for a month or two and sells at an average weight of 200 to 225 pounds, Another elan feeds all the cern and slop the pigs will clean up, all the while running than on alfalfa pasture, and sells at sig to eight months old at '-eights of 250 to 300 pounds. An- other, who raises about a thousand head a year, feeds all the corn the pigs will eat, beginning shortly after weaning and continuing until the pigs are sold at ten to eleven months old, averaging 275 pounds. Still another farmer, from weaning time -- two months old -until eight months old feeds the pigs nothing but dry corn on alfalfa pasture, averaging about Seg pounds a day for each head. At the enol of eight months he sells at an average weight of 250 pounds. The quantity of corn fed is about eleven bushels for each head. While alfalfa pasture has been found very valuable for hogs, the hay as a part ration for winter is scarcely less important, Throughout this whole western region the farmers make a practice of •feeding hay to hogs throughout the winter. The bay has been found especially valuable for brood sows before farrowing. , When fed duriug winter only a small ration of grain is uecessary to keep the sows in good flesh and in healthy condition. Sows thus fed also farrow. good litters of strong, healthy pigs. Many feed the bay by throwing it on the ground in forkfuls. Others have made Iow racks, in which the hay is placed, from which the hogs can feed like cat- tle or sheep. The hay is usually fed dry. The leaves are more readily eaten by the hogs than the stems, and they. con- tain more of the nutritive value of the plant. For these reasons some farm- ers save the last cutting of hay for the hogs because it is more relished. Ringing the Hog. The proper method of ringing hogs' noses is my subject, and with my long years of study and observation I am compelled to say that there is no good, but actual harm in the practice. He is a natural born rooter, and when you take from him this privilege you de- prive him of one of his inalienable rights, and he will resent this usurpa- tion of authority by refusing to do well for you. The hog roots for some- thing, As the chalks, Marls, bugs, worms, roots, herbs, etc., are appe- tizers to him, his system calls for these; it is his nature. Now, I'll tell you how I raise hogs. Have a field of alfalfa for them to run on in the summer and fall and an oat patch for them to graze on during the winter and spring. During wet weath- er which brings the worms to the sure face of the ground, turn into a pen most of the time to keep them from rooting up your alfalfa or oats. I put my hogs in a floored pen sixty days before butchering time and feed them soaked cern. I wash the pens out twice a week and sprinkle with wood ashes. This acts as a disinfectant. -- F. J R. Davenport, before Swine Breeders at Texas Farmers' Congress. Five Horses Abreast, Country Gentleman says of the plan shown in the illustration for' driving five horses abreast: "This is the simplest possible solu- tion of the problem. An ordinary sin- gle pair of lines is used, attached as you see to the outer two horses, jockey nniv Ni4 z'Tv11; Ann:EAST. straps being used to control the other horses. In this case two horses are required to lead the other three as yon turn toward the right or left. Tho sin- gte pair of lines Could be attached to two of the inner horses, standing as a single pair, driving them In the ordi- nary way, using jockey sticks instead of jockey straps."
