Sessions of West Huron Farmers' Institute were held in the Town Hall, Wingham, on Monday, 21th. The President, R. W. Young, of Car- low, presided. In his opening remarks he gave a short sketch of the history of Farmers' Institutes. Prior to 1885, the agricultural societies offered prizes for essays, etc., which were the sole means of disseminating knowledge, Back as far as 1850 the Farmers' Insti- tute was in existence, though in a somewhat crude form. The Agricul- tural Fairs included educational fea- tures that have been largely lost, but the speaker was glad to know that we were coming back to thein again. He believed the Institute and the Fairs would eventually be combined. J. Wilson, V. S., then spoke on the diseases comrnon to farm stock. He classified them thus :— horses — Spasmodic and flatulent colic. Prevent by regular feeding. Don't let them on fresh clover when wet. Letting horses down thin and feeding up in a hurry is dangerous. Cattle—Constipation. The removing of the horns means less of this trouble. The stock will get water more regu- larly. Thin cattle are more subject to this than fat cattle. Feed regularly ; feed succulent food ; lack of water is injurious. Hog Cholera and Swine-plague.— Not a wise thing to buy hogs from in- fected districts. flog cholera is due to ulceration of the bowels. Symptoms —dull, sensitive to cold, will burrow in a stack, slight cough; germs will get into litter and manure, and are hard to detect. The reason we have not had it here is because the germs have not been introduced. Speaking of Alfalfa, Robert Currie remarked that the man who could tell how to make the most money off the farm with the least labor will be very popular. The "question to -day is to raise the most fodder possible on the least acreage,' to feed stock. We should study the most profitable crop to raise onr particular soil ; we should know every field we own, and have some knowledge of chemistry. There is a good profit to every man who will study the requirements of the markets and needs of his land. Some farmers buy too much machinery, and others too little. • EVENING SESSION. President Young, in his opening re- marks, said he was glad that the townsman and the farrner.were com- ing closer together, as this meeting was proof. Mr, Peddle, Wingham, said that if he failed to get a good living here be could find it at home in England. Some things that seemed strange while home two years ago. His impression is that the working class in the old land will become in the near future the ruling class. He could not under- stand that cheese could be bought there for 13 cents per pound, while it. would bring 17 cents here. He believ- ed that if Canadians lived as they have, eat what they have been eating, etc., they would not be able to perpet- uate their species, were not for the in- troduction of the German and English blood. Mrs. C. Campbell, Goderich, was the Howick. Council met in Gorrie, Nov. 19. Members all present except Councillor Spence. Minutes of last meeting read. and adopted. A deputation waited on the Council asking to give the Gorrie Public Library the use of the Tp, Hall free to hold their concert in. Request was granted. - McKee—Gowdy—that a debeuture be made out in favor of R. Ross for the amount of taxes charged on Roll to' Adam A. Doupe Thomas N and euro 9 Wright as they have sold out their business and Ieft the municipality— carried. Moved by Messrs. Strong & McKee that Rosanna Smith taxes be refunded as she is in destitute circumstances-- carried. A bill was presented to the Council by Thos. Akins for Mrs. Vincent for $27.00 as damages from being thrown out of a buggy and getting hurt caused by log on the side of the road. The Reeve was appointed to look into the matter and settle with Mrs, Vincent, A communication was read from F. S. Scott of Brussels stating his horse had broken through a bridge in Tp. of of Howiek and that he wonld hold the Council responsible for damages .but could not say as yet what damages would be. tl hill of Sle.30 was pre- sented by Sol fame of 4aanages to to engine by breaking throilgh crllyert on side line north of Borrie. The reeve was appointed to see Ur, Strone and effect a settlement If be can at what he considers will be satisfactory to the 4;olincil. Moved by Messrs. McKee and Gowdy that the clerk notify the collectors that the council will not give any ex- tension of time and that taxes not paid by Dec. 14th the collectors are ex- pected to inforce the 5%—carried. A. number of ;epounts were present- ed and paid. Council adjonrned to meet in Qorrie on the 15th of December. L. Walker, Tp. Clerk, Turning Down the Doctors. The .marvelous mires of Oatarrhozone are being much talked about. Thous- ands are daily recognizing the exception. al merit of this simple inhaler treat. ments, and instead. of rtliming to the doctor with their wintor ilia they pro- tect themselves by Catarrhozono;•it kills colds in the head in ten minutes, quick. ly relieves Catarrh, Bronohttis, Asthma, Lung Trouble. and cures even though all other remedies have failed. Catarrh• ozone is very pleasant, safe and con- venient to use. Its hest recommend- ation is its enormous sale; try it to -day. Price $1.00, small size 255., at druggists. next speaker. She called attention to POUR POINTS IN IIEALTH. 1,—Vitality. 2,—li'ood, 3.—Exercise. 4.—Cheerfulness. No three will do without the fourth. As a rule, the lightest eater has the most vitality, and the heaviest eater the laziest. Rooms should be arranged with a view—lst, to health ; 2nd, to comfort. Man is what he eats. "Tell me what he eats, and I'll tell yon what he is." We all eat too much. Exer- cise is essential. Cheerfulness, plain contentment, happy contentnion or happiness. Cheerfulness must grow. Cheerfulness affects the stomach. Oheerfulness is flexible ; it may be cul- tivated to the highest degree. Miss Maddock of Guelph then spoke on "Domestic Science." It simply means a thorough scientific and prac- tical knowledge of affairs in the house- hold. The old barrier existing between the town and country is being broken down. In the past the boys have had years of training for their profession, the girls are supposed to take up their life work by instinct. Now if science is applied to the feeding of live stock, how much more important is it that we apply science to the feeding of our sons and daughters. In our homes we require more ventilation, more meth- od. Judicious spending of money,, as well as judicious saving, is a subject discussed at the Woman's Institute. Foons,—These bodies of ours are wonderful machines, and require care- ful attention. We must consider our occupation in deciding our daily food. A. daintily served meal, something served new and fresh, will aid diges- tion. Brown bread is erroneously sup posed to be much superior to white ; the bran in the brown bread contains a woody fibre that is indigestible. Whole wheat, it is claimed, has not this fibre. In making porridge, Miss Maddock said that when in Huron two years ago. she said put twice the quan- tity of meal to water, she meant the opposite, and she would recommend boiling it 6 to 8 hours in a double boiler. Put it on to -day after break- fast for to -morrow's breakfast, J. A. Morton spoke on "House Plants," The presence of anything green (not human) in the house is plea- sant. The points were—"What to do and how to do it." Situation—Good window facing south, a bay window is desirable ; ven- tilate from top, Some plants will not stand draught on base. Flower pots must have good. drainage. Plants should be shifted from pots from time to time ; transfer from one 'size to an- other not too large. As soon as plant is of desired size, don't shift; apply fertilizer; it will flower better. POTTING SOIL.—Take a box with close sides, cut sod three inches thick and unix with, cow manure, grassy side down, three parts sod to one of man- ure ; leave 6 or 8 months, chop fine and add sharp sand. Pick out all grubs and worms. For fine plants put pot- ting soil through sieve. INSECTS.— Water earth worms with lime water. Tobacco is good for green louse. Don't water plants too much ; never water till they are quite dry. The sessions of the Institute were interesting and profitable. The Secre- tary, F. C. Elford, continues to take a very active interest in the work. A number of additions are reported to the membership. Morris. Mr. Wilson of Howick spent Sun- day with his sister Mrs. John Miller, of Morrisbank. Mr. and Mrs. Alex. Bryans also Mr. and Mrs. Ed. Bryans of Grey, visited with their cousin, Edward Bryans of Belgrave on Sunday last, We are sorry to report that the health of Miss Annie Curry, 4th con. is not as her many friends would like to see. We hope to hear of a speedy change for the better. The Council met on Nov. 17th ; mem- bers all present, the Reeve in the chair. Minutes of last meeting were read and passed.
