WEAK SPOT IN CATTLE INDUSTRY,
The weak spot in the cattle industry
of Canada, both east and west, is that
our cattle, when young and growing,
are not fed. liberally enough. Calves in
most places are fairly fed the first win-
ter. 13ullocks are crowded with leed
the last three or four months in their
life, to fit and finish them for market;
but in the growing period, especially the
second .winter, many promising young
bullocks are stunted from underfeeding.
Farmers must realize the cardinal prin.
eiple in profitable cattle -raising, that
when an animal is young and growing
it makes greater gains in weight to the
food consumed than at any other time.
If fed the second winter on straw only,
steers will go on grass in such low
condition that it will require the most
of the summer to regain And make up
Jost flesh* but, if along with the straw
an droudbage, two pounds of ground
oats per day were fed, this grain would
invigorate and strengthen the animal,
so that it would eat more roughage and
.hold the flesh and growth of the previ-
ous eummer.—Duncan Anderson.
HORSES.
Give the horses water as often during
the day as you possibly can. A cool
drink is just as refreshing to them as
it is to their drivers.
The easiest -running binders are heavy
work, and two horses should not be ex-
pected to do the work of three or four,
It takes less feed to keep a horse in
good condition than it does to bring him
back to good flesh After having become
run down and thin.
Remember that the colt's training
should begin with his birth, and that
handling while young is valua,ble. Any-
thing, whether good or bad, filet the
gotten,
Now is the time to teach the foal to
eat grain or chop. A little time spent
In this work will save trouble later, and
there will be less danger of the colt re-
ceiving a serious setback at weaning
time.
When the mare has been working and
is very warm, always allow her a cool
off before Allowing the colt to suck.
Milk, when taken from an excessively
hot dam, is superheated, and is liable
to cause a disturbance in the delicate
digestive system of the foal.
If it is necessary to work the mare
thee is nourishing it colt, she should
not be pushed too hard. It is well to
remember that she is not as strong as
if she had not to furnish nourishment
for the foal. Give her the light work
alai sufficient time to do it.

any good. At last I went to an apothecary.
lie asked me if I had ever used Cuticura

bought a box of Cutieura Ointment and a
cake of Cuticura Seep. I used three boxes
of Cuticura Ointment, but I am glad of

completely cured Inc of xny skin eruption.
1 spread the Cuticura, Ointment on all my

THE TRIUMPH. OF SILAGE.
Buffalo Times; Though silage ev.ae
known to the ancients, and was redis.
oover i:if a century ago it is now just
coining into its own in the appreciation
of the stockmen. It has not been over-
praised. His place has been won slowly
itfter lengthy controversy. Accused of
causing disette:e, poisoning milk, and, a
dozen other evils, it has withstood every
test and demonstrated its excellence as
a feed for all climes of stack, Close
Observations of failures with silage have
disclosed bad management in its mak-
ing and use as the tense of these trou-
blee. Successful experiences in feeding
silage are too numerous to permit suc-
cessful controversy. Poor silage making
results in poor silage, and careless farm-
ers have laid the results of their negli-
gence against the silage as a feed. On
the other hand, the increased returns
from good management and, the proper
use of silage as a feed. give it its high
place in the favor of the skillful stock-
man.
SAVEsTG YOURSELF POOR.
The United States Depaettnent of Ag-
riculture reeently completed an inves-
tigation of the cost and profit of pro-
ducing grain throughout the United
States. It sows that to grow and
harvest an acre of wheat in Vermont
costs $20, which is three times the aver-
age cost in Tisconein, Minnesota,
Iowa, the Dakotas. Nebraska and Kan-
sas. But Vermont gets $42 worth of
wheat on her acre, leaving a profit of
022 an acre, and this is more than
double the average profit for an acre
In the Western States named.
in growing wheat Vermont spends
over $0 an afire for fertilizer, and the
average expenditure for fertilizer in the
other States named he about 10 cents
an acre. Hence Vermon's high cost
for an acre; hence also her high profit.
To grow and littryeet an acre of oats
in Vermont costs $10, and this le over
two and one-half timee the average cost
In the other States; but the nfst profit
on the acre of oats is decidedly higher
than in the other States, in some of
which the average expenditure for fere
tilizing oats land is only 5 eente or lees
an acre.

It is a common thing to see a concern
putting on the screws as to printnig,
‘vrit1n1.-s, illustrating, etc., in their cam-
paigns by mail—and then to ignore the
factor of postage altogether. The specta-
file of thousands of booklets being put
into the mail with a two cent stamp at-
tached when each envelope just tips a
little over the one cent limit reminds
one of the subrubanite who refuses to
start for his train until the last minute
and then misses it by five feet.
"I3ut it ie a very serious thing," the
writer continues. "I have known it to

.saved $75,000 in one year. Their bill for
postage alone is in the neighborhood of
$45,000 a month. Other great mail or-
der houeee spend even more on postage.
One of these saved $52,000 by altering
the paper used in the catalogue and by
trimming the paper close to the type
edge.
"As a mater of fact, no house should
ever plan a catalogue, booklet or any-
thing else without taking into account
the postage first. The, printer's dummy
should be weighed, and by no means
should the wraper or envelope be for-
gotten. Sometimes a lighter weight pa-
per stock will save many dollars. For
large catalogues there age very special
kinds of paper made which effect big
savings through reduction of weight.

UNIQUE FISHING.
In the New England States, whefe
the number of workers usually far ex-
ceeds the demand. for their serviees, ne-
cessity compels ihen to resort to un-
usual methods of earning money. Kan-
kee ingenuity is generally equal to al -
mot any emergency, ad that is what
led a Connecticut man to discover that
a supposedly worthless fish which is
common in Long Island sound, is val-
uable for use as fertilizer. The oil ob-
tained also has a' commercial value.
The fish closely resemblee black bass
in appearance, but is unfit for eat-
ing, owing to the number of bones it
possesses. That is why it is called "bony
fish," and hundreds of tons of these salt
water fieh are caught and. sold every
season. The best fishing grounds are at
New London, Conn., the beautiful sett -
side resort recently opened by the Grand
Trunk railway, and it is an interest-
ing sight for persons from all parts *of
the country to watch the steam shovel
scoop the fled' out of the water by the

PORTUNES IN RIVER, MUD.
; Many Grades of Pearls Found—Shells
Used for Buttons.
A writer in an Illinois paper estimates
that $2,000,000 is paid in that State ev-
ery year for the pearls that are found in
mussels taken front the river beds, This
is the way he figures it:
"A professional buyer, representing

and send his merchandise anywhere at a
cent a pound.
"One single concern whielt had been
spending $50,000 a year on various kinds -
of circular matter, gotten out under
first -chess postage, saved $28,000 out of -
its following year's appropriation and
did more business by using matter going
out under third class. A certain Boston
concern some time ago spent a thousand
elollare on a -Solder going oitt under
third-class postage and got back $14,000
worth of business.
"A Chicago mail order house once
made an experiment which proved to
them that eot more than 10 or dO per
cent. ot the posimastere sent out such
notifications. As each of their cata-
logues represented it considerable sum,
and. as postage on each was 22 cents, a
plan was finally put through so that if
the catalogues lay there uncalled for.
Feeling that it was not fair to lose this
money through negligence of post office
employees, the matter was taken up at
-.Washington, and. arrangements were fin-
ally made to overcome this. A total of
$2,000 a month was saved by this careful
planning and by a trip to Washington,
a saving which other concerns can now,
too, share."

pure-bred Holstein cows, one pure-bred
Hereford fat steer, and four tepee of
the best quality of work horses and

,agricultural subjects dealt with, Prof.
Peters and. his aesistant Mr. Jones dealt
with the horses and, the types best sultid
for breeding and other purpoees. Tottelt-

stele cows were strongly reeoramended
for dairying purposes. The production
of butter was forcibly dealt with, which
thoroughly interested the women folks.
A short talk was given on hog produc-
tion and the raising of sheep. After the
stock judging Prof. Haled spoke to the
men on agricultural education and ad-

agricultural subjects,
ff fell to Prof. Lee to deal with the
many Weeile found on the prairie farms,
and he pointed out the best means of

The Ownership of a ond
Lays the Basis of a
PERMANENT Income
IN those sections of Canada
where there is the greatest
per capita wealth, Bonds
form the largest item in the
list of investments. Bonds are
considered the most desirable
method of investment from
standpoints of safety, income
and convenience.
The purchase of the first
bond—whether $ioo, $500 or
$t000-:-fonns the basis of a
permanent and independent
income. The satisfaction in its
possession stimulates the desire
to own another.
We can aid you in solving
the problem of making your
money earn more money—
making your savings grow and
earn a constantly increasing
income.
The man of small capital
should consider the safety of
his investments. He needs to
know about bond investments
because they offer the highest
possible return consistent with
absolute security.
We have excellent bonds in
denominations of $ioo and $500
as well as Woo. The security
of these bonds is established
by expert engineers and expert
attorneys.
The financial position of the
properties by which bonds are
secured is strictly investigated
by us before bonds are offered
to our customers—in fact, since
the organization of this house
there has been no default in
principal or interest payments
on any bond it has brought out.
We will be pleased to consult
or correspond with investors
regarding any securities in
which they may be interested.
We have bonds of the highest
grade yielding from 5% to 6%

POPULAR SIDE OF THE STREET.
(Leslie's Weekly.)
Ov iters or renters of retail stores
siteLlelook out far the side ot the street
on whielt the property is loeated. Illus-
tratiVe of this is the testimony of a real
estate. expert in. a recerit ease that ground
floors on the west side of ilroa.dway, Now
Yorlc, should lease for UN a (rent foot
Moro than similar pronertv across the
street. Tile value of a retail business
depend o on the numbers of passersbY,
and the difference in this retweet may
result in a booming trade On OTIO side of
the street and only moderate :success on
the other. Some men are able to aci
mitre such a reputation for thetr gods
that the people eOme to them evon when
they aro inconveniently locate& but it is
gool deal easier in building up a trade
to put latirself on a rottte traversed by
the crowd,.
Proof That Health and Renewed Vi-

"I am only thirty years old, yet for
almost two years 1. have felt more like
seventy-five. I have found it difficult
to eleep at night, and. in the morning
feel So depressed and heavy that effort
Was difficult, My hands were always
clammy and -perspiration on slight effort
would break out all over me. Ti was
not unnatural that 1 should begin to
brood over the chance that I should soon
be unfit to do my work, and this dread
made my sleepless nights perfect misery.
After repeated Wale of medicines alai
mixtures Dr. Hamilton's Pills gave me
the first gleam of hope. From the very
first I could see they were different 111
action from other pills. They didn't
gripe and acted as naturally as if na-
ture and not the pills were cleansing my
(dogged up system, My spirits rose, I
felt much better, the sluggish action of
my system gave way to normal activity.
Dieziness and headaches eeased, appe-
tite, good color and ambition to work
returned, and have remained. 1 am
like a new man, and I thank Dr, Hamil-
ton's Pills fen* it an."

Rural sections, long considered ideal
,as far as health is concerned in the
United Stales', have been dealt a blow
by physician inveetigators who have
condemned them bemuse. of polluted wa-

It is said. that throughout Sweden
there are about half a million total ab-
stainers, or about 10 per cent. of the
population. It was at Gotenburg that
the Good Templar movement • had. its
rise in 1873, and of the 150 members of
the firet chamber—the Senate—thirty-
one are total abstainers. Dividing tbe
abstainers politically, we find in the
Senate four Conservatives out of 87; 21
Liberals out Of 51; six Socialists out of

Under Queen Victoria's regime, once
a, widow, always a widow. She always
wore mourning, including it widow's cap,
and she .insisted upon the royal widows
wearing something to show that they
were in mourning. The Duchess of Al-
bany has always worn it veil in the
evening, although the Duke must have
been. dead 28 years. Queen 'Victoria
abhorred re -marriages. Melly of the
ladies of the coert resented this as
tryannical dietation, but Victoria never
wavered. Now, however, the widow de-
