Ezra Merkley " I wouldn't take a thousand dollars for the good VINOL has done me. I was told that Cod. Liver 011 was the Medicine I needed for my weakened condition and poor blood. • I could not take the greasy mixture, and when our druggist told me that VINOL contained,not only tonic iron but all the inedicinal prop- erties of Cod Liver Oil without the grease or oil or bad taste, I made up my mind that was the medicine for me. I tried it and to -day am strong and well." MRS. J. T. SNYDER, Greensboro, N. C.

Sloppy, leaky wooden troughs, or clean, durable Concrete ? Wooden drinking troughs are about as reliable as the weather. They are short-lived and require re- placing every few years—not to mention continual patching to keep them in repair. The hest of wood cannot withstand, for long, constant dampness and soaking. Its tendency to rapid decay soon shows itself in leaks and stagnant pools of water around trough. Contrast with this the durability,. cleanliness and well -ordered appearance of Concrete. p� The dampness which destroys lumber only intensifies the strength and hardness of Concrete. You can impair a wooden trough with comparatively little use; but it takes a powerful explosive to put a Concrete water tank out of business. Which is your choice--expense-producing Wood, or money -saving Concrete? We'd be glad to send a copy of our book, "What the Farmer Can Do With Concrete,"--Free--if you'll ask for it. It tells the many uses of Concrete in plain, simple language ---tells how to make Barns Cisterns Dairies pipping Tanks Foundations Fence Posts Feeding Floors Gutters Hens' Nests Stables Hitching Posta Stairs Horse Blocks Stalls Houses Steps Poultry Houses `ranks Root Cellars Silos Shelter Walls troughs Watks Well Curbs Canada Cement Co.

Montreal A Big Price, That farm lands aro not depreci- ating in value around Walkerton is evidenced by the pricereceived by Columbus Schnitzler for his 00 acre farm last Friday, when no less than $1700 ohanged. bands for his grant of land. Thia is at the rate of $91 an acre, probably the highest ever paid in this section, the purchaser being none other than Mr. Scltnitzler's neighbor, Sohn Flach, This will for- ever remove the line fence dispute between these two farms, which was widely advertised and contested at great cost in the courts, --[Phe Bruce Times, Will Be Picnic Next, Through the use of a new anaesthe- tic, novatain, a 16 -year-old girl ex- changed witty repartee and sang' in unwavering tones while surgeons re- moved her appendix. The new drug,. which is the private prescription of Dr. W. Wayne Babcock, is similar to stovaine, the invention of the famous Roumanian surgeon, which paralyzes the sense of feeling but does not make the patient unconscious. Physicians who were present at the operation say that while the girl gave one of the greatest demonstrations of nerve that they have ever witnessed in a surgical ward the operation also was a triumph for the anaesthetic, which, injected into the spine, destroys ,the sense of pain but permits the patient to laugh and chat with the surgeons as they wield the knife. Denounced The Preacher. In Owen Sound, on Sunday evening, upon the first occasion on which the choir were habited in surplice and gown, Miss E. Black, a lady of good family, caused a sensation in Division Street Presbyterian Church, As the last notes of "Come Ye Disconsolate," the opening hymn, died away and the sermon was about to commence, she stood up in her pew near the front of the church and denounced the minis- ter, Rev. G. A. Woodside, for allow- ing the choir to take part in the ser- vices clad as they were in flowing gown and surplice. "Is this a Pres- byterian church with those things ? I am surprised that you, the minister, should allow it 1 Oh, we are all going to ruin," she cried, and, sobbing, sank down. The minister calmly and quiet- ly began his sermon, which was con- ducted without further interruption. BEARING DOWN PAiNS. What woman at sometime or other does not experience these dreadful bearing down pains. Mrs, E. Griffith, of Main street, Hepworth, Ont., says : "A heavy bearing -down pain had set- tled across my back and sides. I was often unable to stoop or straighten myself up. Many times each night I would have to leave my bed with the irregular and frequent secretions of the kidneys and just as done nut in the morning as on retiring. I was languid and would have t o 1 e t my house- work stand. No- thing I had tried would benefit. me. I learned of Booth's Kid- ney Pills and concluded to try than, which I did, and soon found the long songbt relief. My back Strengthened and 1 began to feel bet- ter and stronger. I now enjoy my sleep without being disturbed and feel grateful to Booth's Kidney Pills for what they did for tae." Booth's Kidney Pills are a boon to women. She would know less of back- aches if she took more of these won- der ful pills. They are nature's great- est epecific for all diseases of the kid- neys and bladder.

Tha statement was advanced by Honorable Sidney Fisher that farmers of Ontario to -day who are making the most money are graduates of the Col- lege. He pointed ont that the man who succeeds is the man who makes use of his brains, and •that the most successful man today must not use his =soles too touch lest he become tired to an extent where he could not exercise his brains to the best advan- tage. He quoted statistics showing the value of our aggregate crops for the Dominion to be over $500,000,000 this year. It would be no tribute at all for us to add at least 20 per Cent. to these crops, and make the five hun- dred become six hundred millions. It would require no more capital; rather a little more knowledge and a little more care applied to the work, which lies in the hands of the farmers, who, if they would but do as well as they know, would easily accomplish this result.

ANGUS CATTLE NOTED FOR LONGEVITY From the first recorded cow of the breed—old Grannie I., which produced twenty-nine calves and was killed by lightning when thirty-five years and six months old—to the present time in- stances of longevity in Angus cattle have been frequent, writes John S. Goodwin in Breeder's Gazette. The Zara family was one of the ear- ly prize winning families of the breed and took its name from Zara (1228) of Battersea fame, She was the gran- dam of the famous bull Paris, which Was in active service in his fifteenth year, Almost all of this family are now In America, Having noticed that, with almost un- varying continuance, every prize win- ner in Scotland had n dash of Zara blood in its veins, I attended the dis- persion sale of Mr. fleury and secured all the Zara females he had, which were practically all in the United States. Early in the naming of the calves we reverted to the family name of Zara for the heifers and Zaire for the bulls. Zarilda's first bull was Zaire V., which was used with such marked success in the Bradfute herd Very near the head of the proces- sion of beef cattle walks tho Aber- deen Angus. By merit it is entitled to thls place, having been bred to supply the "mighty roast beef" of old England and Scotland and hav- ing been brought to America to sat- isfy the appetites of ]English and Scotch descendants. The Doddles, as these animals are lovingly called by the Scotch, are docile and tho finest kind of beef animals. The Aberdeen Angus bull shown was champion at the royal show two years ago. - until in his fifteenth year. Afterward came a host of other good ones, until she had produced eighteen calves, and, on the 15th of June of this year, full of honor and within about sixty days of her twenty-fourth birthday, she quietly passed away. In those early days when we were importing cattle in droves of one I spent many a sleepless hour in study- ing the Scotch herd books trying to pick out the very best Pride of Aber- deen pedigree within its covers, mean- ing by thls the heifer or cow which carried in her veins the greatest com- bination of the most famous blood of the breed. At last my choice fell on the now famous Key of Paris. She was a two-year-old and sired by the champion Zara bull Paris. We had adopted the use of the word Key on the names of her female descendants, and as she produced for us sixteen calves and her daughters were equally prolific there were Keys in bunches. On Aug. 1, after slie had passed Into her twenty-third year, Key of Paris was turned out to pasture in apparent good health. That night we had n thunderstorm, and the neat morning at the foot of a shattered telephone pole lay the mortal remains of Iiey of Paris. These grand old matrons of the breed, Zarilda II., aged twenty-four, and Key of Paris, aged twenty-three, had pro- duced thirty-four calves. Cow With Mange. The affected patches on the animal's skin should be softened by washing with soap and wiu'm water. After this has been clone the parts should be dressed with one of the common mange dressings, such as spirit of tar, oil and sulphur, or with one of the patent dips or .with scaleeide. The dressings should be applied twice or even three times at intervals of ten days. For the serious and rebellious cases veterinary advice should be sought. The litter from an infected animal should be removed each time after dressing, and the flooring and wood and other fittings should be well sl;rayed with a 5 per cent solution of carbolic acid in water. Grain and :Roughage Feeding. Cows, sheep and animals that chew the curl have font stotmtehs and n very perfect arrangement for grinding feed. Grain should be fed with rough- age, as then it goes luto the first stom- ach and will be rechewed. If the grain is eaten alone it is apt to go to tho third stomach anti so miss the recliow- ing. To make sure that the feed is thoroughly chewed feed it with rough- age. The best way Is to cut the liay or straw and mix the grain feed with it. Then it will go through the Whole grinding,. process.—North Dakota ,Agri- cultural a i- i ailtural College. Most Profitable Market. The best And most profitable market for grain, hay and coarse forage that a farmer can find is a good cow. Not only Is the return when transformed into cow products the highest, but the reflex effect on the producing power of the farm is very great. The man who keeps cows and sells grain and fodder unless he has a surplus Is a shorteeighted man.—Governor board. Clear Water For Sheep. Sheep Won't do well without water, and they are dainty about drinking. Glean running water is just sts .kei- aentiai as good grass. Could Tell Many Things. Very many people harbor the belief that newspapers are eager -to publish derogatory things. It's a mistake. There isn't a newspaper that could not spring a sensation in the community at any time by merely telling what it knows. There is nota newspaper that does not keep under the lack of secrecy eeores of derogatory things. which never meet the public eye nor teach the public ear. Deciding what not to print Is the most troublesome part of tsewepaper work. Three Days Only --u Saturday, Monday and Tuesday, Feb. 25, 27, 28.

Children's Scalp Sores Are Healed By Zam-Bak. Mothers are well aware how fre- quently chiidren contract scalp sores, ringworm, etc., at school. Some little sufferer is sent to school with a sore of this nature. At play, the children change caps, and right there the infection is spread—the damage done. Some children are particularly liable to scalp sores, etc., and often these break out with annoying frequency. Such a case was that of the daughter of Mrs. Albert Gaedike of 485 Am- herst St., Montreal. Mrs. Gaedike says :—"My little three year old daughter suffered frequently from scalp disease, and try as we would, we could not rid the little one of this. We tried everything we could think of, but failed to effect a cure, until we were advised to try Zan] -Bull. This balm seemed entirely different to any- thing we had ever tried before, and from first applying it there was a marked improvement; The sores be- came leas inflamed and less irritable. After a few days, they ceased to trouble the child ; and in less than a fortnight from first commencing with Zam-Buk, they were completely heal- ed. In view of these•faets I feel it my duty to let mothers know how bene- ficial Zam-Buk is," There is no doubt that for scalp sores, ringworm, ulcers, abscessed, cold cracks, chapped hands, frost bite and similar sores, Z:am-Buk is abso- lutely without equal. It is just as good for piles, varicose sores, poisoned wounds, cuts, burns and scalds. Rub- hed well in over the affected part, it cures rheumatism, sciatica, etc., etc„ and rubbed into the chest it relieves the tightness and feeling of weight due to contracting a 'lad cold.
