It is gratifying to notice that the system of Agricultural education in this province is not only meeting with the approval and support of the farm- ers of Ontario, but that it is being adopted and duplicated by the State, Departments of Agriculture in the Republic to the south of us. The fol- lowing extract from the Breeder's Gazette 'is striking evidence of the esteem and admiration of the people of the United States for our enter- prising and progressive methods "Representatives of the Wisconsin College of Agrlculture will soon be stationed in several counties of the State, especially those which have training schools for preparation of teachers, to aid in the general agri- cultural development of the county, In addition to giving agricultural in- struction in these schools, the repre- sentatives will aid in developing the extension courses of the college of agriculture and will carry on demon- strations on land provided for that purpose by the county. Besides this, it wilt be bis duty to study conditions throughout his county which need im- provement. The county representa- tive will be a middle man between the college and the farmers and 'accurate knowledge of things agricultural will thus be more generally dissemin- ated." Such emulation of our educational campaign by the wealthy and pros- perous state of Wisconsin speaks well for the system adopted in 1907 by the Ontario Department of Agriculture ; a system which Is rapidly being per fected and extended until to -day it embraces nineteen districts and nine- teen continuation or high schools where agriculture is an optional sub- ject of the curriculum, 1 A FAIR OFFER. Your Money Back If You're Not Satisfied. i TNTIL a few year ago, although LJ concrete had already been gen- erally adopted throughout the coun- try by contractors and farmers for almost all structural work, it was the practice to stop all"work on this form of construction as soon as the cold weather set In. It has been found, however, that concrete work may be carried on In cold weather successfully, and with but very little more trouble than un- der ordinary circumstances. This fact is of great benefit to the farmer, as it Is in the colder period of the year, that he is able to find time for building and making the many articles around the farm to which concrete so readily adapts it - We pay for all the medicine used during the trial, if our remedy fails to completely relieve you of constipation we take all the risk.

With a few simple precautions it has been found that concrete can be used, not only in freezing wea- ther, but when the thermometer has been actuaily be- low zero. If the concrete freezes before it starts to "set," It will not be injur- ed, but If the freezing takes place after the "setting" action has • started up, the concrete is likely to be dam- aged when it thaws, owing to the expansion of the melting water forcing the par- ticles apart and making the concrete tho other hand, erste has thoroughly (Montreal Star.) The Whitney Government deserves the name of the Government that "does things," It has successfully plowed up the wilderness of New On- tario with Colonization roads and managed its necessary railway de- velopment, under the capable leader- ship of Ron. Frank Cochrane, who has now come to Ottawa as minister of railways for the Dominion. It has solved the "power problem" for West- ern Ontario, and accomplished this important a .the face and o alar feat pp of the moat determined opposition. It has given a new impulse to agricul- ture in Ontario by bringing the acien- ttflo training—.hitherto stored at Guelph ---nearer to the doors of every farmer. It has lifted the standard of public; school education by subsidizing in g poorly paid teachers. It has put the railways In their places by taxing them when established, and stopping the nursery polio, of subsidizing their establishment in settled portions of the oonntry, BEATING WATER. A simple and easily -made vessel for heating water is shown in the ac- companying drawing. (See Fig. 1.). A. coil is mado of one -inch pips with the ends fastened In the barrel and made water -tight. A small fire built under the coil will heat the water rapidly and will keep it In circula- tion, thus keeping ail the water heated. For this purpose It is wise to use a length of malleable iron gas -pipe, because it is easily bent into the re- quired coil. This is done by taking a log or fence -post about the size of the coil and bending the pipe around it. This method prevents the pipe pipes, and will soon thaw out and become heated. In very cold weather, the cement may be heated by laying the bags on fop of the sand, but this is not abse- lutcly necessary, as the cement itself must be kept dry until used, whether the weather be hot or cold, TEMPERATURE REQUIRED, Materials should not be heated to too high a temperature, A good way to judge the proper amount of heat is to make them just hot enough to be comfprtable to touch.

To give It this chance you must first of all prepare the materials as described below, and secondly, you must pro- tect the concrete after it has been placed in the "forms." PREPARATION OF MATERIALS. Concrete will, on its own account, develop a certain amount of heat in' TIG. 1. SHOWING snots METHOD Or WATER HEATING. - the "setting" process. But in cold weather, semi outside assistance, in the form of artifloial heat, 1s neces- sary: The best way to develop this artificial heat is to warm the ma- terials before mixing. This short- ens the time that it takes the con- crete to "set" and lengthens the t1mv necessary to bring it to the freezing point. Bear in mind that the less water used, the quicker concrete "sets." Therefore, it is advisable to use as little water as possible in the mixing during cold weather, from "buckling" and Makes the coils more regular in size. 'Where concrete work is being done on a largo scale, it is advisable to use the two -barrel heater shown in Fig, 2. This allows the water to be con,- stantly replenished without reduc- ing the heat of the water in the bar- rel from which the hot water Is taken. Most fanners, however, possess largo boiling kettles, used during butcher- ing time, or for making soft soap, etc. One of these will do equally well. PROTECTING CO','dCR.ETE IN , POSITION. After the con- crete has been placed In "forms" it should bo pro- tected so as to keep the heat in as Iong as possible. This is more essen- tial in thin struc- tures than in mas- sive ' walls and foundations; for the latter will hold their own heat longer on account of their thickness. Wooden "forms" are non=conductors, and will retain the heat in the concrete up to a certai npoint, but • the concrete should be protect- ed on top by a cov- ering of canvas or heavy paper, with a layer of ten or twelve inches of manure on top of this. Straw will also answer the purpose. If manure is used, care should be taken to prevent It from coming in contact with the concrete, as it will discolor it, and possibly even seep through sufficiently to weaken the structure.

IIEATING SAND AND STONE. Sand and stone may be very easily heated by making use of two pieces of stove pipe, one piece for the sand and the other for the stone. The pipes are laid on the ground in such a position as to allow the wind to make a good draft. The fire ,is then built in one end. The flames pass through, heating the whole pipe, and as fresh fuel is ad- ded, the cinders are pushed along the pipe and gradually work out at the other end. The sand and stone should be ailed on ton of the stove r1a, 4. PAPER SACRED TO WOODEN oveeenTs TO PROTECT CONCRETE FROM FROM. .al protection, heavy paper should be nailed to the vertical posts of the forms, (see Figure 4,) thus leaving an bnclosed air space between each pair of posts. These air spaces will have about fifteen degrees higher temperature than the outside air. The "forms" should always be left on longer in cold weather, as it takes longer for the concrete to harden. There Is no reason why concrete cannot be used with complete suc- cess in cold weather if these simple 'precautions, be followed. BEWARE OF BLOOD -POISON ZAM-BUK IS A SURA CURB. Mr. Jas. Davey of 780 Ellice Avenue, Winnipeg, says: -- "A few months since I was cured of poisoned finger through the timely use of Zam-Buk. "I cut a deep gash across the knuckle on the first finger of my right hand in opening a lobster can. I suf.: fered at the time with the soreness and pain, hit had no idea it would be- come a serious wound, however, in about two days I was greatly alarm- ed ; as my Whole hand and arm to the elbow became suddenly inflamed, and the finger was much discolored, show- ing signs of blood poisoning. The pain was dreadful and I was forced to leave off my work and go home. "The wound on the knuckle had been poisoned by dust and dirt getting into it, I then decided to start the Z•am-Buk treatment, and haviag first bathed the cut, I applied the healing balm. It soothed the pain almost in- stantly, and by next day there was a great improvement. "In a week's time, through persever- ance with this wonderful preparation, a complete cure was brought about."
