A Case In West Aricliat.
Mrs. A. P. Ferguson a well known
Cape Bretoner has cured asthma by
"Catarrhozone." Her state is con-
vincing :—"Although I was troubled
for years it was only recently I tried
Catarrhozone. When an attack start-
ed I got out my inhaler and invari-
ably got quick relief. Feeling satis-
fied Catarrhozone would cure. I con-
tinued the treatment'until one bottle
was finished. I didn't use more be-
cause I was cured and the asthma has
never returned." Catarrhozone is
sure death to asthma and bronchitis.
Try it and he convinced. Two sizes,
25c and $1.00 at all dealers.
Blyth.
Great preparations are being made
for July 12th.
Thirty-nine pupils wrote on the En-
trance examination here.
Last week Chief Westlake had the
Blyth lock-up repainted and fixed up
generally, and made generally attrac-
tive for temporary boarders.
For the convenience of the country
people Postmaster McKinnon will
have the postoffice kept open till 8.80
p.m. during July and August on Sat-
urday evenings.
The By-law to loan Elam Living-
ston the sum of $3,000, to he repay-
able in 15 years, to aid in the erection
of a factory and dry kiln to manufac-
ture handles, hoops etc., was voted
upon here on Tuesday. While a good
vote was polled the requisite number
to legally put the By-law in force vvas
not given, lacking 10, hence the By-
law fails.
The Morris District L. O. L. meet-
ing was held on Monday afternoon in
Blyth and representatives were here
from Auburn, Londesboro and Blyth,
also County Master Homey, of Dun-
gannon. In the evening the regular
meeting of Blyth Lodge was held and
committees were appointed for the
12th. The reception committee is
Bros. J. H. Cliellew, R. Vint, D. Ta-
man and A. Wilford, The lodge has
engaged the 33rd Regt. Baud, of Code -
rich, to play during the day.
A Hard Case Overcome.
No longer necessary to suffer from
muscular rheumatism. Every case
can be cured. Ferrozone is unfailing
as proved by David Johnston of Or-
mond, Ont. My wife was a dreadful
sufferer" he writes :—"For two years
she could scarcely do any work. Her
knuckles and joints swelled, causing
torture. To get up or down stairs
was impossible. She took box after
box of Ferrozone and rubbed the sore
places with Nerviline. Luprovement
started and she mended fast. To -day
she is quite cured and we thank Fer-
rozone for her recovery." No remedy
more popular with doctors than Fer-
rozone ; it does cure, 50c per box at all
dealers.

across, as suggested. The whole is
then covered with the heaviest red,
resin sized building paper, this being
held in place by laths nailed along
the edges, as shown in Fig. 2. An
opening is left at the bottom of one
side, under which a flat iron kettle
filled with smoldering fire can be slip-
ped.
Higher up on this side a movable
board is closely fitted, as shown in
Fig. 2. Through this space the meat
can be hung on the nails on the cross-
piece shown in Fig. 1, and its condi-
tion can be examined from time to
time.
This smoke room can be made as
large as one may need, but for most
purposes seven feet high and three
feet wide and deep will doubtless be

found sufficient. If it is to be wider
than the width of the building paper
other stakes must be driven so that
there may be support to which the
edges of the paper may be tacked.
Valuable Poultry Experiments.
The poultry department of Cornell
University has an interesting cross-
bred pullet hatched on February 15.
She is given absolute liberty of the
place and is so tame that she may be
caught at any time, says the American
Agriculturist. She feeds when she
wishes from cracked wheat, corn,
oats, meal, whole and mixed grains,
meat scraps, grass, grit and skim
milk. She is to continue having her
liberty, for the department wish to see
if she will balance her own ration
and not get fat. Her egg record is
phenomenal. Beginning to lay on
June 19, with a two -ounce egg, she
has increased the size of the egg
gradually and in 161 days has laid
131 eggs.
The molting experiment in which
the department is learning the physi-
ology of molting, how to feed before
to induce rapid molting and early
laying and the result of retarding
feeding, in contrast with ordinary
feeding. Two pens each of White Leg -
horns, of one, two and three years of
age, respectively, were taken, and
one pen from each age. They were
given limited rations for four weeks,
L e., first week, two-thirds; second
week, one-half; third week, one-third,
fourth week, two-thirds, and the fifth
week the complete ration, Meanwhile,
the other pen was kept at the same
quality of food, but with a steady
quantity of feed. In order to deter-
mine more thoroughly the mode and
rapidity of molting, the fowls in each
of the six pens were dyed different
colors. The result to date is as fol-
lows: As a rule, a hen molts the
feathers from different parts of the
body in a certain rotation, The rapid-
ity is variable. Those that continue to
lay, are last to molt. A hen rarely lays
and molts at the same time. Restrict-
ing the rations has not forced the re-
sult to a marked degree, but the hens
under this treatment have more com-
pletely molted up to the present. The
restricted ration has reduced the
number of eggs to zero and forced a
loss of weight from one-half to one
pound apiece.
Four pens of pullets hatched Febru-
ary 15, have been experimented with
to determine how to feed from the
time there is evidence of beginning of
laying, so as to get the most eggs in
October, November and December.
There are 20 pullets in each pen.
Those in two pens have been forced,
the others retarded. Those forced have
been given all whole grain, ground
feed, and meat scraps, while those re-
tarded were given only whole grain
and but little meat scraps. The re-
sults to date show that those given
the first ration have laid the most
eggs, have the most weight and are
in the best condition of laying.
Horse Talk.
Never leave a horse tied with his
head to the wind. •
Bedding makes the manure much
more valuable and makes the horses
look better.
Never leave home without a horse
blanket, and when the horse is stop-
ped, even for a short time, put the
blanket on him.
Be sure that the halters put on
the colts are strong and well fitted. If
broken or rubbed off it will not be
forgotten, and the result will be a
halter breaking horse and a nuisance.
Give the colts a chance. Thrifty
yearlings should grow one hand taller
this winter. But they won't do it un-
less well fed.
Pity The Busy Office Mau.
He feels half dead, a sense of nausea,
headache and nerve strain. He is on
the verge of breakdown through over-
work and lack of exercise, These dif-
ficulties are best overcome by Dr.
Hamilton's Pill, which make the
bowels active, stimulate kidneys and
liver and thereby free the system of
impurities. To revitalize and stimu-
late your whole being, to shake off
lethargy and tirekness, nothing com-
pares with Dr IIatnilton's Pills which
do snake good looks, good spirit, good
health. Sold everywhere in 'tae

est class exhibit of the show by the

tronly charms was altogether out of

the usual. Her type is most sharply
accentuated on intense dairy lines, but
the Ayrshire man who consults modern
type and generally accepted ideals will
count her hardly "cow" enough for her
milking machinery. But with her red
markings, her abbreviated legs, her
wedge shape and her fiat shoulders and
her tremendous udder she played quite
a part as a show cow. She came from
the New York herd of George William
Iiallou.
TO YOUNG DAIRYMEN.
A Practical, Up to Date Road to flood
nuttermaking.
Let the young man, if possible, spend
some time at a dairy school to get
his eyes opened, then work in a cream-
ery and in a good private dairy, where
he can learn much about feeding and
handling cows. The two experiences,
creamery and dairy, will let him see
all sides of the work and broaden his
views. With this preparation, which
should take not less than two years'
time, the young man will have an ed-
ucation and an experience that quali-
fy him for managing a dairy farm at
a good salary, or if he is a man of force
he can take even the risk of buying a
dairy on long time or turn his father's
farm into a profitable dairy. In other
words, lie is ably prepared for his life's
work at less cost and In much less
time than his brothers would be who
took the chances of succeeding in any
of the professions.
Foundation Stones.
You will find the two governing prin-
ciples involved In good buttermaking
to be, first, cleanliness, and, second,
temperature. There Is nothing that can
keep you from being clean except lazi-
ness, and that is a little disease we all
have, like the measles, but remember
that, while it does require extra labor
and a deal of it to first get -things per-
fectly clean about the stable and milk
house, this hard labor will not have to
be repeated provided you never let It
get dirty again.
In other words, if you do that every
day that you should do there will be
no accumulation of dirt about the sta-
ble or milk house. Herein lie the gov-
erning principles of good dairying, to
never let anything get really dirty.—L.
S. Hardin in Home and Farm.
Dairy Dots.
An occasional rinsing out with lime -
water will help to keep a churn sweet.
Penny wise and pound foolish is the
woman who still uses old fashioned,
out of date dairy utensils.
The washing of the cream separator
once a day doesn't make any less work
than washing it twice a day. When it
stands overnight and the sediment
hardens in the bowl It then takes twice
as long to clean it.
The dairy woman or man who de-
pends upon the strainer to clean the
milk rather than upon cleanly methods
of milking is the one who makes poor
butter.
The old rule of working butter is to
stop when clear drops of water stand
on it.
Supplementary Forage.
We nearly all know the value of oats
and peas, and some know vetch and
rape, but everybody knows corn, and
at the season when it grows there can
be no better forage crop. The oats
and peas are valuable because they can
be grown earlier, as indeed they can
also later, or oats and barley are fit
to use as green fodder after the frost
has injured both the grass in the pas-
tures and the corn in the fields. The
wise dairyman will not neglect to pro-
vide these crops to supplement the
pasture feed or to spare the contents
of the silo and the haymow. --New Eng-
land Dairyman.
lianxnn Special Dairy Train.
The Santa Fe Railroad company re-
cently ran a dairy train over a portion
of Its lines in Kansas. Several lectur-
ers on dairy subjects made the trip.
Two coaches were used as lecture
rooms. Thirty-five stops of about an
hour each were made in four days.
Kansas Farmer says a baggage car
was devoted to exhibits of separators,
several separator experts accompany-
ing the train, and the interest in this
part of the work was lively.
A farmer tells of a conversation he
chanced to hear between a boy and a
Christian Scientist, who came across
the lad sitting under an apple tree
doubled up with pain, "My little
man," the Scientist said, "what is the
matter?" "I ate some green apples,
and, oh ! how I ache," "Von don't
ache p you only think so." The boy
looked up, saying, "But I've got inside
information, sir I"
