DEAR SIIts—
We have been feeding your Stock Food to
cattle for some time, and find it to be an ex-
cellent tonic. We have also fed it to horses
and pigs, and aro quite sure it is the best stock
food wo have ever tried. Our prise winning
cattle at the Provincial Winter Fair, 1002,
were fed Worthington's Stock Tonic.

DEAR SIRs—
I find your Stock Food is a very excellent
Tonic for cattle, giving theta a good appetite
and keeping their digestive organs in a healthy
working condition. The steer "Scettie," ex-
hibited at Winter Mair, weighed at birth 801bs.
at 35 months 2000 lbs., making a gain of 55 lbs.
per month. It pays to feed Worthington's
Stook Food. ANDREW RICHARDSON,

DEAR Stns—We have used your Stock Food
for both cattle and hogs and find it gives good
satisfaction. Several of ourcattle have shown a
gain of over ]bpermntfeeding it.

—In the United States, in 1902, 1,895,-
812 tons of beets were worked, costing
on an average $5,03 per ton and produc-
ing a total of 436,811,685 lb. of sugar.

lished at once and the proolamation it-
self will follow.
—That silos are popular in Ohio is
proved by the fact that in fifteen town-
ships of that State aro to be found 1,000
silos. Progressive dairymen have found
that a cow must have succulent food
during the period of lactation for beet
results.
—It is said that Peter Oettler, a High•
laud County (Ky) farmer, killed a hog
lately which when hung up, was eight
feet long and weighed 793 pounds. The
hog was two years old and stood three
feet high. His head weighed forty-four
pounds, and thirty -live gallons of lard
was produced from the big porker.
—Turuberry, in the northern part of
county, has 2,400 of a population; Tuck•
smith, iu the southern part, has 2,464,
practically the two smallest. Howick
stands high with 4,140, Grey 3,559, Ash-
field 3,496, West Wawanosh 3,218.
Why such differences should exist be-
tween townships side by side, is hard to
understand.
Bracebridge, Ont., Feb. 12.—On Feb.
3rd, two little daughters aged four and
five, of Samuel McMurray, met their
deaths while the mother was out at the
barn. Having left the little girls alone,
they got a box of proprietary medicine
pills off a shelf, and ate a considerable
quantity. Death followed almost in-
stantly.
—It will be remembered that some
months ago a threshing engine broke
through a bridge in Metcalf tp., killing
Mr. McKenzie and Mr. Muuroe, who
were riding on it. Their wives have
sued the township, and one has recover-
ed $1800, and the other $1600, damages.
This shows the responsibility of town-
ships in such matters.
—Mr. Wm. Weir, an old resident of
St. Marys states that 64 years ago a
winter similarsto the present one made
trouble for the people. It lasted from
the beginning of November till the
middle of May. On the 4th of May,
sleighs were driven from St. Marys. On
the same day the first man killed in St.
Marys met his death while falling trees
so that the cattle could feed on the
tope.
—The night of Jan. 27th was the
coldest in the history of the copper
county—of Michigan -48 degrees below
zero. Cattle were found frozen stiff in
barns, and teaming and all outdoor work
was stopped. The worst storm in the
State was on the 24th, blocking roads
and trains. Yet a Branch County
farmer unknowingly looked his wife in
the barn, and she nearly froze to death
before he missed her.
Listowel, Feb. 10.—B. Rothwell, ex -
principal of the Listowel public school,
met with a particularly painful mishap.
He banked the furnace fire for the night
and went upstairs, but turned to go
downstairs again, lost his footing and
fell headlong down the steps. The
lamp he was carrying was smashed, and
the oil, which covered his face and head
took fire. Mr. Rothwell sustained
several very severe burns, his left ear
being almost reduced to a crisp.

--The Canada Gazette contains an
application to Parliament, made by the
Guelph Junction Railway Co., to build
a line from Guelph to Goderioh, with a
branch to Listowel, and another branch
to St. Mary's and Olinton, via Stratford.
The company asked for power to lease
or sell the proposed main lice and
branches on the Q. P. R.
—Mrs. Gibb, of Stratford, aged 82,
widow of the late Geo. Gibb, of Downie
has, with her sister, Mrs, Ballantyne,
widow of the late James Ballantyne, of
the same township, a history of no little
interest. The former lies thirteen child-
ren, three sons and tan daughters, a]1 of
whore are living except the eldest son.
Mrs. Ballantyne is the mother of ten
children, six sons and four daughters,
all of whom are living. Mrs. Gibb has
in all forty-seven grandchildren and
twenty-three great-grandohildren, while
Mrs. Ballantyne bas forty-five grand-
children and three great-grandchildren.
This makes in all one hundred and
forty-one descendants of the two sisters.
It will be seventy years next May since
they came to the Huron tract with their
parents, the late Jas. Simpson and wife,
from Peebleshire, Scotland. They ar-
rived in the Classic City May 1, 1834,
when Stratford had but one store.
A Serenely Happy Man
Is Mr. Thos, McGlashan of Pelham
who was cared of muscular rheumatism
by Nerviline, the most powerful remedy
in the world. I suffered all manner of
pain for years, he writes, and Nerviline
was the only thing that did me any
good. I can heartily recommend Ner-
viline for all forms of rheumatism; it
goes to the very core of the pain and
brings lasting relief. Let every sufferer
from lame back, aching joints and
swelled limbs use Nerviline. It is sure
to cure and costs 25c for large bottle.

The Maccabee Band is keeping up its

Barrister Sinclair went to Toronto en
Wednesc{ty as the appeal case was to be
heard on Thursday in connection with
the extension of the sewer on Turnberry
street.
Brusselites interested as stockholders
in the Durham Cement Works have ap-
pointed C. Broadfoot to represent them
at the annual meeting to be held at Tor-
onto next week.
Next week President Jas. Speir will
go, to Toronto to attend the annual
gathering of the Fair's Association
which meets in the Queen city on Wed-
nesday and Thursday.
A representative from Berlin Sugar
Beet Factory was in town last week ar-
ranging for the holding of • a public
meeting to dismiss the question ofculti-
vating a largo quantity of beets to be
purchased by Berlin factory.
During nearly the whole of last week
G. T. R. traffic was at a standstill as it
was impossible to move trains. Mer-
chants were complaining of not being
able to get goods, besides the severe cold
prevented customers from coming in to
buy. Many staple articles in the
grocery line had run out altogether, or
were the next thing to it.
Dan. Ewan has placed moat of the
machinery, he recently purchased in the
building set aside for the woodwork de-
partment of his manufacturing indus-
try. Some changes had to be made in
the interior of the building, but this has
all been accomplished and the machiu-
ery—some five in number—so far receiv-
ed, placed. Other machines are to ar-
rive shortly and when all are in position
Mr. Ewan will have a first-class equip-
ment for the manufacture of all kinds
of vehicles.
—The development of the Canadian
Portland Cement industry has been
rapid during the last two years. In 1902
eight factories produced 62,000 barrels,
350 pounds to the barrel, with imports
of 460,000 barrels for the same year.
With five new cement mills now under
construction with a capacity of 5,600
barrels per day, with several now com-
panies organized, which, if completed,
will add over 4,000 barrels per day,
the entire future output claimed will
exceed 3,500,000 barrels. With thirteen
plants finished the output would be
2,275,000 barrels at the outside.
Parkhill, Feb. 11.—A boiler exploded
at Harrison's Mills last night about 8.30.
The crash shook every building in the
town and as the electrio lights disap-
peared simultaneously everybody jump-
ed at the conclusion that the boiler at
the electric light plant had blown up.
It was soon discovered that it was the
boiler at the Harrison estate roller mill
which had caused the trouble. Happily
no one was killed or injured, but most
of the glass in Main and Kiug streets
was broken. The west end of the mill
was blown out, the engine house com-
pletely demolished, and tho woolen
mill adjoining badly wrecked. Pieces
of the wreckage were spread all over
the town.
—There died in Egmondville, on Fri-
day morning, January 29th, Mr. Leo-
pold Otto Van Egmond at the age of 80.
He was one of the most remarkable men
amongst the early settlers of the Huron
tract; a direct descendant of the cele-
brated Count Egmond, whose tragical
execution by the Spaniards is a momen-
tous event in the history of the Nether-
lands and Europe. His father, Colonel
Van Egmond, was en officer in the
army of Napoleon Bonaparte, but pre-
vious to being with Napoleon, he fought
with Blutcher in the famous battle of
Waterloo. Colonel Van Eg,nm id and

had a large contraet with the Canada
Company for opening the road through
the bush from Stratford to Goder1eh,.

The extensive and comprehensive ex-
hibit which the Grand Trunk Railway
System are arranging for the World's
Fair, held at St. Louis during 1904, is
now in course of preparation. The pro•
posed pavillion which it is the intention
of erecting is one combining beauty,
elegance and artistic merit and the de-
signs submitted to the Exposition
authorities were greatly admired and
accepted. The pavilliou will be erected
iu the "Fish and Game" Building, fac-
ing on three aisles, will be of Corinthian
and Doric architectural style, embellish-
ed with emblematic desigus of flsh and
game, and it is claimed will be one of
the handsomest structures at the Ex-
position. Canadian haunts will be the
predominating feature of the display.
The mammoth palaces that form the
main picture of Sans "World's Fair"
the Eorsign and State buildings and the
"Pike" (Midway)—aro at the present
time much further advanced before the
opening date than the buildiugs of any
other of the great expositions that have
been held in the past; in fact, the in•
stallation of exhibit is now being pro-
ceeded with in many of the buildings.
One good feature of St. Louis is the
Union Station; there being only this
one, all tragus from all points with the
exception of excursion trains from a
distance of one or two hundred miles of
St. Louis will arrive and leave from one
depot, and as the street oar lines pass
the station visitors will have no trouble
in reaching their hotels or boarding
houses without difficulty and early after
arrival.

hesitate in forming the opinion that it

Catarrh Of The Head.
It is very common, but awfully dan-

leads to consumption. Cure is as cer-
tain to follow the use of Catarrhozone
as day is to follow night. You simply

zone which spreads through the nasal
passages, throat and lungs, driving out
every vestige of catarrh, "I was cured
of chronic catarrh of the nose and
throat" writes M. E. Wilkinson of Lan-
reuceton after many years of misery
by catarrhozone which is a splendid free
remedy to the air passages from mu-
cous. Catarrhozono relieved quickly
and my cure has been permanent.
