We have to haled Bulletin No. 128 of the Ontario Department of Agriculture dealing with the "Weeds of Ontario." It is revised, by Prof. Lochend, of the 0. A. C., and contains instruct•ioas for the identification of the common weed impurities found in clover and timothy seed and the methods of eradication are fully discussed. The pamphlet contains 96 pages and is nicely illustrated and every farmer should have a copy which be may have free by writing to the De- partmeut of Agriculture, Toronto, The Toronto Star remarks that "Mr. Aylesworth may have been somewhat precipitate in expressing his views aboat theverdict of the Dorn nission, but his countrymen begin to see method in his madness," Probabiy Mr. Aylesworth thought Lord Alverstoue needed some stiffeuing up, and recent events show that he did, bat the publication of such a report as was sent over by the Canad- ian Associated Press was most injudic- ious. It placed Canada's representatives en the same low partisan plans as the United States commissioners, which was most undesirable whichever way the award went. Guelph Mercury: The Canadian people felt very sore over the Alaskan bouudary reference from the first, because of the way the tribunal had been "loaded" agarnst them. The sting in theriecision, ,for Canada, lies in the fact that Lord iverstone, following the traditions of British diplomacy iu respect to Canadian territory, yielded Canadian contentious, of whose righteousness he was satisfied, in order to arrive at a settlement, rather than prolong the controversy over the boundary. Canada would have bowed gracefully had an outside and independ- ent arbitrator settled the difficulty that was, but ebe has a right to persistently and forcibly protest against the British representative joining in ' concessions to satisfy the States, to which the Canadian representatives were unalterably oppos- ed, r, le44.- Same people -bat they are few --are noted for their modesty. There are other people -and they are matey -who are noted for gall, gall of the pore, una- dultered variety. Of this latter class one of the most troublesome sort is the Lean who Leeks his way to fortnne on the free advertising ticket. Last week a letter was received at this office contain- ing about a column of printed matter labelled news, their sender asking that the items might be inserted free. Then, his gall being still unsatisfied, he glossed over the insult to our intelligence by presenting us gratis with some "taffy." A perusal of the news revealed the fae t that it all related to the business of a certain firm, which probably required publicity in order to live. Perhaps some- times men will recognize that newspaper space is the stock -in -trade of the pub- isher, for which he is as much entitled 10/0 • be paid as the merchant for his goods. ---Shelburne Free Press. t 'issued by E.

To be well, to be strong, to possess a clear complexion, bright eyes and an elastic step, the blood must be pare and filled with life-giving energy. When you see pale, sallow, sickly girls, easily tired, subject to headaches, backaches, and violent palpitation of the heart, it is the blood that is at fault, and unless the trouble is speedily corrected the pati- ent passes into that couditiou kuowu as "decline" and death follows. The one, sure, positive way to obtain rich, red health-givingblood is to take Dr. Wil Hams' Pink Pills. This medicine has saved thousands of young girls from a premature grave. Strong proof of this is offered iu the cure of Miss Zenaide Falford, of St. Elie, Quebec. Miss Fal - ford tells the story of her sickness and recovery as follows: "Like many other Cauadiau girls, I went to the United States and found employment in a fac- tory at Woonsooket. The close, indoor work proved too much for me and near- ly ended in my death. At first I was taken with headaches, would tire very easily, had no appetite, and no energy. I tried to continue the work, but grew worse and worse, and fivally was com- pelled to return to my home. I was so changed and so emaciated that my friends hardly knew me. Two weeks after my return home I was forced . to take my bed. I had a bad cough, was distressed by terrible dreams, and some- times passed whole nights without sleep. Two doctors treated me, but without avail, as I was :steadily growing weaker; in fact I could not hold my .hand above my head for more than two or thr ee se- conds, and had to be turned in bed. No oue expected I would get better, and I thought myself I was about to die. At this time my brother came from Mon- treal to see me, and strongly urged me to try Dr. Williams' Pink Pills. A sup- ply of pills was procured and I now bless the day I began taking them. It is enough to say that before three boxes were used I began to feel, better, and front that on I grew stronger every day. By the time I had taken nine or ten box- es I was once more enjoying the bless- ing of perfect health, No symptoms of the old trouble remain, and I am confi- dent Dr. Williams' Pink Pills saved my life." Pore blood is the secret of health and it is because every dose of Dr. Williams' Pink Pills, make new, rich blood, tbat they cure such desperate cases as that above related. These pills core all the troubles that arise from poor blood -and that means mast of the ailments that afflict mankind. Give these pills a fair rrial and they will not disappoint yoa.

BARRELS HAVE DOUBLED IN PRICE • And it is Said Apple Shippers Stand to Lose this Season (Toronto Telegram.) ; "Uneasy lies the head of she apple shipper," is a new version, now cur- eent, of an old saying. , Last year exporters of apples lost money on ac- count of the scarcity of good stook, the state of the market, and, as some declare, through the general dis- houesty of English commission mer- chants. Now they have a brand, new cause of 'complaint, which will, it is stated, result in more financial losses -a shortage of barrels. 1, .Until recently things looked bright far the apple packer. r The failure of the British and continental apple crops offered a geed opportunity fur Canadian fruit in the British mar- ket. Besides, Ontario apples are plen- tiful and of good quality this year. Shippers revelled in the prospects of recouping themselves for their, last year's deficits in. this business. E Not for long, however. ,Like a. bolt from the blue, as one dealer asserted, came. the intelligence that barrels were ex- ceedingly x ceedingly scarce, the ;shortage total- ling seve,ra,l hundreds of thousandt, and ,hard upon the heels of this an- nouncenaent quotations :were received showing that prices had been advanced almost 100 per cent. Iln fact it is very difficult to get barrels even at the high prices offer- ed. One heavy consumer• who has usu- ally no -difficulty, in obtaining the nec- essary supply, is know:,n to have gone ,round among his 'business friends; re- questing them: to use their "pull" with the coopers to get barrels for him. n,uotations now; range; at 40 to 65 cents for barrels, which last year could be bought for a ,quarter. ;What bothers the shippers is not so much the increase in: the price of baxrels as the fact that; so it is claimed, they knew; nothing about the impending advance when buying from farmers and -fruit growers. They are inclined to think that it was a put up job not to let it be known that an advance was probable until after they bad made their contracts, Theo when they had to get barrels the price was raised. ,aowever, that may be, they stand to lose fxomi 15 to 20 cents a barrel on shipments 'or' as much," said tine of Toronto's largest ship- pers this morning, "as the, profit we calculated to make.' Unless prices in Eegland are better than anticipated. rippers stand to have all their trou- ble for nothing, with the probability of a dead loss. �. 1 , • One effect of the scarcity. of bar- rels will be to increase shipinents in boxes. Every year this method of handlign fruit is being rather •more generally adopted. It is expected to receive considerable impetus from this year's scarcity of barrels. These boxes hold 40.pounds or a little less than a bushel. Shippers are, how- ever, skeptical as to the advantages of this style of packing. It is slower and ,wages are comparatively high. in this country. Besides, there is the necessity of dictating to the farmer, and most farmers object strenuously to the infliction of new, methods, • 1 (While fruit shippers are inclined, to think the co Leers are holding them up, some of the latter think there is a combine among soma of the larger cooperage mens to buy up and, control the available stock of staves. Fin any case, boop..rs are all agreed that pro- perly dried etoek is exceedingly, hard to get. 1 l r Opinions are many„ aa to what the present difficulty is.

The report of Dr, Bryce, secretary of the Provineiai Board of Health of the vital statistic's of the province of Ontario, for 1902, shows that while there is only a slight increase in the dumber of marri. ages, the birth rate is much higher than is preceediug years, The death rate shows a material decrease. Last year there were 47,799 births as oompared with 40,061 in 1901, or an increase of 1,735. The number of marriages in 190e was 18,072, nu increase of 37 over the, preceeding year, The number of deaths during the year was 27,861, while in 1901 the figures totalled 29,603, showing the substantial decrease of 1,744. Dr, Bryce ascribes the increases in births to the prosperous state of the couutry,and to the Mot that the press of the country and the ministers of all denominations had instituted a crusade against "race suicide." Killing Stray Dogs, A subscriber to the Farmers' Advocate asked this question: "At what times and under what cir- cumstances may a farmer shoot stray dogs on his premises?" The answer the Farmers' Advocate gives to this question is as follows, and it would be well for owners of dogs to bear it in mind: -"He may kill any that he finds astray betweea sunset and sunrise on his farm if sheep are kept thereon unless such dog be securely muz- zled or accompanied by or in reasonable call or control of the person having it in charge. Even in such case the dog may be killed if there is reasonable apprelren- shon on the part of the farmer that if such dog is not killed it is likely to wound or worry sheep or lambs then on his farm. He may also kill any dog which he see spursuing, worrying or wounding any sheep or Iamb, or without lawful permission iu any enelosed field on his farm, and found by him to be giving tongue and terrifying any sheep or lamb thereon.
