"GOVERNMENT STANDARD SEEDS " • A Term Coined by Seed Vendors. Pnri:h bn s of red clover, alsiko and timothy steeds who want a good clean artioi•e b .o.ad se: to it that the seeds they buy ere clearly represented by a reli tble eereon or firm to be of first quality, by being ma iced "No 1," "Primo," • Fancy." • XXX," or such other t:c:t,i;zuatian for % Melt a special stateter t et purity is fix ad lfi Section 4 of the 5:••..d Control Act. "(.iovernulent Srtindard" is a term coir."d be seed vendors and may be mible.ac?rug unless meetly uneerbtood. Seamen 4 ut the Act fixes a standard of quality i:s respeot ,,to weed seeds, below wheel ti'-'otliy, alsike and red clover seeds ala not allowed to be. sold for seemng, either by maniere or sed mer- cha:.ts. .This standard allows of the weed settle :gamed in the Act about 90 in one & nn :e of red clover, 200 in one oun.•e et aleike, or 40J in oue, ounce of timothy teed. Ie is t e seeds that will pass tete lower standard, but are not sutli.:i;mly clean to grade "No. 1" that the tt:i t "G.,vernment Standard" was attecut tl last sea':on. Some s,sed ve.idors have a'ivertised see&c li:id••r "Goveriment Seal." No G,3veln:nc.nt seal is used on any Leeds offer.'i stn. sate in the trade Some re- liable houses sell grass and clover seeds, sealed by them and for which they alone are held responsible so long as the seal remains intact, but not after is is brukein. To avoid the provisions of Section 3 of the Act, which applies mainly to sped grain, same seed ;vendors represent to farts as that, on account of the Seed Conteo! :'lot, they are offering their grain :or sale for milling or feeding purpose e. If offered for sale for seeding, such seed vendors aro regaired to make clear to, t.* 'riding purchasers that the seed ct'721.;.ius wild oats, wild mustard, cockle aud such other n xit us aveed seeds when tic:y ere in the set,d. The object of the Act ie to protect, farmers who want t, protect themselves against such weer:r:, w provides the means for far - mete tit buy seed intelligently. Far - mere: wait deliberately bay feed grain and use it for seed can scarcely hope for legtelatior that will protect them from Ioss on account of noxious wends G. H. CLArig, Seed Commiesioner and Official Seed Analyst MR. GRAHAM'S LEADERSHIP. Mr. Graham has been referred to by a Conservative paper as a temporary leader of the Opposition. He has turn- ed the point pleasantly by declaring that the writer was predicting his speedy ad - tent to the position of loader of the Government. It is only in this sense that there is anything temporary in. Mr. Graham's position. He has declared that his objeot is not an much to attain effioe as to advocate anti farther Liberal principles, and his actions have not belied hie words, Whether he has supported the Govern- ment or opposed the Government, his 'tuition has been founded on sound Liberal prinoiples. He has done what he could to identify Liberalism with Provincial rights, with pnblio owner - lip. and with civil service reform. It is only by this coarse, by taking a star•d upon pertain fixed principles and adher- ing to that position regardless of con- sequences, that Liberalism can win any victory that is worth winning. Mr- Graham has also ilhown good generalship in leading his little army. He tries to find out what each man can do, and to allot to him the work in which he can serve not only the Liberal party, but the Province. The work done by the new men in the criticism of rhe Agricultural Department was a matter of general and favorable com- ment. It was not factions opposition, but criticism, whose aim was the im- provement of the service for the benefit of the people. How long it will take for Mr. Graham to get into office by these means is a matter of minor im- portance. If he is doing hit duty as a Liberal leader and an upholder of public rights, the consequences may be left to take care of themselves. Felt Like One Costs Nothing unless Cared. Liberal Way in which Piro na Stom- ach Tablets are Sold by Waiton lileKibbon. If a friend should tell you that ho would pay the doctor's bills for you un- less you were cured, would it not im- rress yon with his physician's skill? It is in this way that Walton McKibben eerie Mi•o-na stomach tablets, for he guarantees to refund the money if Mi o- ne does not cure. Use Mi•o-na stomach tablets if you have any of the following symptoms: backache, headache, sleeplessness, nau- sea, distress after eating, specks before the eyes, despondency, nervousness, loss of appetite, dizziness, pains in the side and limbs, or galping np of undigested food, and you will soon be cored and able to eat a hearty meal without fear of pain or distress. Mi-o-na costs but 50c a box. nothing if it does not cure. Walton McKibben is the local distributor. What's the Difference? St. Marys Argus. Under the heading "Far from the Madding Crowd," the Toronto Star pub- lishes items from its country exchanges and occasionally the St. Marys Argus finds its name tacked on to what seems to the city editor a very unimportant paragraph. Now, we ask what's the difference in the country papers speak- ing of John Jones painting his barn and the city papers telling of the Hon, Mr, Smith redecorating his city palace? The city press takes its fling at the country press for the seemingly insignificant items of the farm and yet if John Jones didn't repaint his barn and build new fences and sell a calf or a cow occasion- ally the Hon. Mr. Smith would have very little of the wherewith to redecor- ate his city palace. Anyway, the sim- ple item that "Mr. and Mrs. John Park- er were among the guests at the wed- ding" sounds better to us than the so- ciety item, "Among those who occupied boxes were Mrs. Randolph Everness, in a fetching bine silk, trimmed in old point and valencienues, the oat of the bodice, which was lower than the estab- lished fashion of the season, displaying the lady's exquisite figure to admirable advantage." Again, the fact that "the six-year•old daughter of Mr. and Mrs. John Brown is on the sick list" is of more hnman interest than "the imported spaniel, Boo IV., of Mrs. Devine Toodle- stool is suffering from an 'exaggerated ego,' causing Mrs. Toodlestool much alarm." One has to have a "high -ball stomach" and a "drawing room com- plexion" to stomach such items as those. • Paralyzed Judge Barron on Tuberculosis. ZV2r. Alex. "thier, jr., Clarence Creek, Russell County, Ont., writes: -"I am happy to be able to give a recommenda- tion for Dr. Chase's Nerve Food, for this preparation has done me a great amount of good. My nervous system was run down to such an extent that I suffered a great deal from weakness of the nerves and seiatic rheumatism, and at times was like one paralyzed. I could not work, was unable to sleep and had no appetite, 41"his condition lasted for six years, and in the meantime I had treatment from the best physicians and tried all kinds of medicines. "Nothing seemed to build up my nerves until I made use of Dr. Chase's Nerve Food. After having used about $12.00 worth of this medicine I feel like a new man. I can walk all right, do a great deal of work, have a good appetite, and, what is even better, I can sleep well every ni+;ht. " Dr, Chaee'd Nerve Food, 50 cents s bout t3 boxed for 32.50, at alt dealers or Edizsaosion, Bates do Co., Toronto. Judge Barron, who has this winter addressed audiences in various parts of Western Ontario on tuberculosis, ad- vances a theory that is new to us, but which, if authoritative, will bring much comfort to those who are the victims of the disease, or who fear that they may have the germs of it lurking in their systems. The judge declares that "when an individual is completely and surely cured of a focus of pulmonary tuberculosis and solerosis of the area previously affected has become habltu• ally and permanently immune, and this immunity, nniike the disease itself, can be transmitted from parent to offspring," The average layman is unaware of this, but it will carry comfort to many who, by raison of the faoi that they, when cured of tuberculosis, still thought it their duty to the race, forsook the path of matrimony, and denied themselves the allurements of conjugal bliss,--• Ottawa Journal, TWENTY YEARS CO1 (From Tint WINeu4ai TaasEs of Friday, March 25th, 1887).

Il. 1r A six$- All Danish creameries issue rules for the general treatment and milking o2 cows. That concerning milking is in- teresting. At the top of the card are the words, "Good Advice," beneath which are a drawing of the udder and teats of a colt, with the hand of the milker placed in proper position. On either side of the card are columns shaded to indicate the percentage of fat present in the first milk drawn from the cow and in the last milk drawn. The rules on the cow are as follows: The cow is a living machine. Kindly treatment entails less labor and gives more milk. Good work improves the living machine. Milk clean. Clean milking develops the udder and increases the quantity of milk, and you receive richer milk. Re- member that the milk last dawn is by far the most valuable. You shoubi wear tidy and clean clothes. have the pail clean as well as the creamery can. Thoroughly clean the udder by rubbing with a piece of linen. Wash the hands thoroughly before milking. Let the udder be quite dry before you begin to milk. Milk with dry hands. Seize the teats with the whole hand. Keep a gentle pressure on the udder. Milk as fast as you can, and never cease working until the milk is wholly drawn. Don't strafes the teat beyond its natural length. Re- member the value of the last drops. If there be soreness or lumps in ud- der or teats, stoppage in milk canal or unnatural colored milk, don't mix that mill: with any other, and don't send to the creamery. Begin milking always at fixed time. Milk the same cows in the same order. Regard this excellent work as one of honor. Clean the cows. IIave good air in the stalls. Light should be freely admitted. A Grand Hoictein 13ui1. The holstein bull shown in the il- lustration was recently sold to a Syra- cuse (N. Y.) firm for $10,000. The hol- stein -Friesian Register says of him: "Ills dam, Mercedes Julip's Pietertje, was the world's record cow of 1901. The dam of his sire, Jiggle Cornu- copia Pmiliue, now holds the world's A. R. 0. record Of 34 pounds 5.2 ounces of butter in seven days and of 137 pounds in thirty days and of 04.6 TEE MILS AED BUTTER RING. ounces of milk in one day, (15t) 2 pounds of milk in seven days; average, 4.17 per cent of fat, 2040.3 pounds of milk in thirty days. The average daily record of these two dams Is 190.6 ounces in one day. The average percentage of butter fat in their milk is 4.095 per cent. Their average butter record is 31 pounce 13.45 ounces in ono week. There is no other animal, living or dead, whose clam and sire's dans have so high a combined record of milk, but- ter fat and butter as this young bull, and it is doubtful if one will ever be born that can equal It. IIis rights therefore to the title of the 'Milk and Butter King of the World' cannot be successfully assailed." The Pedigree. When one of niy good pedigreed cows drops me a strong heifer calf, sired by a pure bred bull, whose sire was from a good cow and whose clam was a good cow, with many other good cows lending the glory of good work to the pedigree -when I have a. royal calf from such an ancestral line and I feed her well and care for her properly and breed her wisely, I know I can be almost absolutely sure that she will be a good cow, a profitable cow. She will be a source of pride to me, a fruition of my labor, a reward to my intelli- gence, a proof that I have builded wisely and well. And in a cow thus bred in the only way in which I know it is possible to breed a cow with any degree of certainty as to what she shall be I have such an abounding faith that I do not adjudge her as un- worthy ber breeding and my keeping until she shall have freshened at least three times. When you put the right kind of dairy breeding and knowledge into the making of a cow you have a legitimate right to bank on the kind of a cow she shall be. -W. Ii. McSparrau in Farm and Fireside. Milking the Cow. 11. G. Van Pelt, a man of wide dairy experience and an authority on the care of cows, says: "An all important factor in caring for the dairy cow is the process of milking. Upon the regu- larity, gentleness and stick-to-itiveness of the milker greatly depend the quan- tity and quality of the milk given and the persistency of the flow. On one occasion, after failing itt every other method to impress upon the milker the importance of extracting every possible drop of milk from the cow's Udder at each milling, I induced him to n.:11: the first few strips in one Sam- ple 1 c; tia and the last in another. The first te.;ted 2 per cent and the latter 152 per refit of butter fat" 1 ti r
