The following is part of a circular
from the Ontario Agricultural College,
Guelph —
To the Editor.
Many of your readers may be in-
terested In the plans of the Depart-
ment of Education for introducing the
subjeot of Agrieelturce into our rural
and village schools in a practical way.
It is now very generally considered
that the work in the schools might
very well be adapted to the worka-
day interests of the neighborhood and
the employments that will likely be
followed by the boys and girls after
they leave school. This list, indicates
where an attempt in this direction is
being made in your °aunty through
the growing of plants and carrying
out of simple experiments at school.
Other schools might become interest-
ed in the work if they knew it was
actually being undertaken in other
nearby schools and so lay plans for
making a conimencemet}t next year.
As the agricultural interest is the
chief interest in this province, it is
fitting that schools that actively pro-
mote this interest in a practical way
'should be encouraged in the work
The work has been most widely un-
dertaken this year in the schools of
Bruce, Elgin, Grey, Huron, Kent,
Lambton, Middlesex, Norfolk, Perth,
Waterloo and Wellington Counties,
Anyone interested in this question
of introducing Agriculture into the
Schools and desiring further informa-
tion about plans of procedure, quali-
fied teachers, special grants, or
material supplied for the work should
apply to S. B. HcOready, Agricul-
tural College, Guelph.
The following schools, in Huron
county have undertaken the work in

MUSCULAR RHEUMATISM
Muscular rheumatism exists in twu
forms --Acute and Chronic. In acute
cnuieular rheumatism there is first
noticed a dull pain in the muscles
which gradually increases. This pain
often shifts from one muscle to anoth
er and the working of these muscles
makes the pain very severe, Musca
lar rheumatism is a blood disease and
should not be neglected, a proper
treatment shnuld begin with the first
symptoms. Rheumo is recommended
by the foremost people everywhere be-
cause it drives all uric acid poisons
from the blood and enriches' it so that
rhe system becomes healthy and free
from the tortures of rheumatism. A.

tees it to give entire satisfaction 01

THE WINGHAM ADVANCE
*TIE DAIRY END,.
(From Tne Canadian Ferns )
In all Otte we have said in regard
to the meat supply situation, and in
what np.sy be said during the next few
weeks when special attention will be
given to this subject by "Canadian
,Farm," there is no desire on our part,
and we believe on the part of any of
our correspondents to belittle the
importance of the dairy industry, It
is an industry that should be fostered
in every way possible. Canada's
cheese industry has brought distinc-
tion to this country, and it would be
a suicidal policy to do anything that
would in any way lessen its value and
importance. To the farmer who is
engaged in dairying we would say
stick to it. if he keeps the right
kind of cows and feeds and cares for
them properly, and takes the best of
care of the x'aw material, there is
money in the business for him. And
there is no one who will dispute the
fact, that for the dairyman, the cow
that will best fi'1 the bill is the one
bred along dairy lines. This must of
necessity be true. The dairyman bas
only one direct source of revenue from
his herd• ---the milk which his cows
give, and hie profits in the business
will depend upon the quantity and
(luslity of milk which he gets from.
them. There are, however, many
dairymen who have not learned this
lesson. The results of the work in
cow -testing in recent years have
shown this. While the average pro-
duction per cow is on the increase it
has not yet reached a point where it
can be said that every dairyman is
making money out of his cows. Our
advice to the dairy farmer, therefore.
is to test his cows, find out which are
profitable and which are not, and
gradually improve the milking quali-
ties of the herd by discarding the lat-
ter and securing better ones, The
supply of profitable cows, however,
is not equal to the demand, and the
dairyman must build up by better
breeding methods. And this can be
best done by using pure-bred dairy
sires, from record of performance
dams, In fact pure-bred record of
performance dams would be a good
investment for any farmer specializ-
ing in dairying.

The Western Fair.
The management of the Western
Fair, London, Ontario, are sending
out this week their Prize List, Entry
Forms and other kind of advertising
matter announcing their corning Ex-
hibition in September. The dates are
September (ith to 14th. This is the
oldest Exhibition in Canada and it is
becoming more arra prove popular each
year. The prize list contains some
very valuable information for intend-
ing Exhibitors. From the breeder's
standpoint this is one of the best Ex-
hibittons held, as a large number of
buyers always attend in order to se-
cure the best animals that can be ob-
tained. The parade of the Live Stock
daily is something of great interest
and attracts large crowds. Stockmen
should include this Exhibition in their
list. Write the Secretary, A. M.
Hunt, London for prize lists and all
information.
No Meat Diet.
The finest people in Europe, the peo-
ple of the tallest stature, are perhaps
the Irish and the Scandinavians.
These people use very little meat.
The diet of the average Irishman is
oatmeal, buttermilk and potatoes, a
diet on which the tallest nen of
modern times have been raised. The
great Irish giant, who was some•
thing over eight feet tall was raised
on a non -meat diet. His skeleton
hangs in the museum in the College of
Surgeons of London, It is impossible
For a race to be large and strong if
• raised on a meat diet, or anything like
a large meat diet, because meat does
not contain the elements necessary
for making bones. The height of a
person depends upon the length of his
bones, largely upon the length of his
pegs for after all tall people are mostly
legs, Meat contains practically no
lime ,• and lime le absolutely necessary
far bones. Normal bones contain
more than otae-third their weight of
lime, eo that it is very necessary that
ire should bade an abuaclanee of lime.
N'ow lime is found in abundance in
oatmeal, in buttermilk, not Very Witch
potatoes, but practtcelly* not at all
in meat; in weight we have 4 grates
of lulls to the pound, be treat only
,tete-half grain of lime to the pound ;

The n ajorlty of the people seem

is the best profit producer.

Little Profit to the Farmer In Produc-
ing Small Draft Animals.
It is surprising, after all the taut
about big horses, to see how many
farmers still think that the little are
all right to raise. No money is made
producing the little southern chunks,
writes Professor J. L. Edmonds of Illi•
nols in Orange Judd Farmer. In notb.
Jug has the big draft horse shown
more improvement in recent years
than in action. The big, fast walking
horse of perfect action has a. decided
advantage. Not many take the pains
to teach their horses to walk properly,
and the right kind of big horses are
not logy and at a disadvantage in the
heat of summer work.
The rule to get size in the class and
quality in the sire cannot always ate
ply. In come communities it is neces-
sary to increase size through the sire.
The colt show is a great benefit. A
stallion lined up with five or six of his
get tells his value better than any
word painting. Pure bred horses have
much stronger prepotency than the
horse of little or no breeding. Some
good stallions have a poor chance to
show what they can do, Poor feed
and lack of exercise cause many fail.
Tho Percheron breed of draft
horses was first introduced in
America about ilfty years ago, and
it seems to be growing in favor.
The Percheron is a massive, heav-
ily muscled animal from 10 to 17.2
hands high and weighing usually
from 1,600 to 2200 pounds. Intelli-
gence, good temper and courage are
all indicated in a good Percheron
head. Good feeding and shipping
qualities, clean, properly set legs,
dense, well shaped feet and unusual
endurance at severe work are some
of the strong points of the breed. '

ures. Some are kept in filthy little
yards and not looked after a great
deal.
The only absolute way of knowing
the value of a mare is to see her off-
spring. Even the best judges cannot
always pick out the best breeders. One
of the best breeding mares ought to be
the last animal sold from the farm.
The demand for pure bred mares has
been exceptionally good the last few
years. A man who bas not raised a
good gelding had better not attempt to
raise pure bred horses. Crossing—tha t
is, grading up—produces some of the
best market animals, but if the fillies
are to be raised it is better to pile up
the blood in one line. It is a distinct
advantage in selling to raise only one
breed of draft horses In a neighbor•
hood.
Care of the Separator.
Keep the hand separator bearings
clean and well oiled. Such will save
enough to justify the spending of n
half hour every two weeks at flushing
the bearings with kerosene, which cuts
out the grit,
Cheapest Grains on the Pig.
'Under ordinary management the
cheapest gains made on the pig are
through the mother. So it pays to
pamper elle mother of a good sized lit-
ter and thus force the .young.
The Horse's Toee.
It Is better for a horse to turn both
toes out than to turn one toe out,
While, on the other hand, it Is worse
for a horse to turn both toes In than
to turn one toe In.
The Profitable Sheep.
No ferns should be without satire
sheep. They cleats np the 'weeds, make
fine fertilizers and wool and produce
:lambs, all of whist► may be turned into
d good profit.

TORONTO REAL ESTATE
On the principle that "far off hills
look green" a large amount of Ontario's
money has been invested in Western
towns of doubtful possibilities, while
right at our door, in the city of Toronto,
are to be found what are probably the
best real estate investments in Canada.
Toronto will add to its population this
year as many people as there are in two
towus Iike Saskatoon.
Toronto has a population of 420,000
and is growing rapidly.
The opening up of Greater Ontario,
the rapid settling of the West, the en-
largement of our canal system, all com-
bine to make Toronto the xnost favora-
bly situated city in the Dominion.
Its growth during the next few years
will surpass all past records.
We can give valuable information to
intending investors, as we have made a
personal inspection of the different parts
of the city.
