His customary hard common sense and conservative methods usually protect him from this avit; but, when we hear of young pigs being sold at fifty cents each at weaning time, or slaughtered to stop their demands for food, it would seem as though something closely ap- proaching a panic must be abroad in the land. PANICS AGGRAVATE EVIL. There probably never was a panio which did not aggravate the evil which est it in motion, and the demoralizing ef- Yeo$s of the present panio among farm- ers must be apparent to every eye. Doubtless there are some farmers who are foroed to sae their pigs through sheer necessity, but such unfortunate cases are not sufficiently numerous to account for all the young pigs and breeding sows which are being dumped upon a doubly glutted market at present. The farmer with feed in his bins bas need to do some careful calculating be fore deciding to throw away his pigs. Selling stock on a poor market in order to sell grain upon a high market is not always a profitable enterprise, and the number of dollars coming into the treas- ury daring the year may be considerably less under this method, than had the grain been marketed in the form of meat. Farm animals, and especially hogs, Consume and turn into valuable meat, many products, which, otherwise, would have beea wasted, and though the farmer may not always realize the highest market prices for the grain fed to hie hogs, the otherwise unsalable products for whioh the bogs have pro- vided a market will generally. under a careful system of feeding, much more than make up the deficiency. WHERE IS THE PROFIT? What does the farmer gain by sacri- ficing his hogs and selling his grain? In the first place, he obtains the prevailing market prices for his grain, which might, or might nos, have been obtained had the grain been fed to hogs. Secondly, he saves the labor of feeding the hogs. Thirdly, ke has less risk, and less capi- tal invested. Against this, he has in- curred a heavy loss by dtaposing of bis stook on a glutted market. He still has the labor of cleaning the grain and teaming it to market. He has lost the sale of a number of products which the hogs could profitably utilize. He has sold a lot Of valuable fertility, the absence of which will lessen his next crop, and hence increase the cost of Felt Lilo One Paralyzed Mr. Alex. Ethier, jr., Clarence Creek, Russell County, Ont., writes: -"I am happy to be able to give a recommends - tion for Dr. Chase's Nerve Food, for this preparation has done me a greet amount of good.

He has planed himself position where he cannot take advent - age of the high prlcee for finished hogs which deem certain to prevail when the present exoitewent has burned itself out; and, after all, he is not absolutely certain that he got any more for his grainthan if he had fed it to bit hoge. This last point calls for further consider- ation. SOUR iuroar4NT mantas. ;'t.�r During the past two years, the Ont- ario Agricultural College has collected some very valnatle data regarding the prices realized lot feeda consumed by hogs. Part of the hogs were fed at the Oullege, and part were led by farm- ers in different parts of the province. To experiments deal with the food consumed by 297 hogs, aggregating 50,718 p rands when sold, or an average weight of 190.9 pounds each. A variety of foods was used, comprising barley, peas, oats, middltnue, bran, corn, skim milk, roots, and miscellaneous toods whioh were valued by the. feeders et certain sums, and duly charged against she pigs. The young pigs at weaaiug time are valuou at $l 50 eaoh, which is considerably above the cost of raising pies from birth to weaning, iuolading maiutenanoe of sow, eto., as shown by experiments conduoted at the College Deducting from the selling prioe the cost of the pigs at $1 50 each, and the ohargt s far misoellaneous foods, we find as follows: - If the pigs were sold at 4ee cents per pound, live weight, they would return $20 45 per ton for all meal consumed, ,noluding middlings and bran, 20 oents per huudred-weight for skim milk, and 10 cents per bnehel for roots. At 5 cents per pound, live weight, they would return $28.87 per ton for meal, 20 cents per hundredweight for. Berm milk, and 10 cents per bushel for roots. At bee cents per pound, live weight, they would return $27.29 per ton for meal, 20 cents per hundredweight for skim milk, and 10 Dents per bushel for roots. At 6 cents• per pennd, live weight, they would return $80.71 per ton for meal, 20 Dents per hundred -weight for skim milk, and 10 Dents per baehel for roots. At 6;, cents per pound, live weight, they would return $54.13 per ton for meal, 50 oents per hundred -weight for skim milk and 10 Dents per bushel for roots. Considering that middlings and bran enter quite largely into the mixture, and, taking into consideration the prices re- ceived for hogs daring the year, we mast admit this is a remarkably good showing in values received for feed. We must also remember that the grain fed as it oame from the threshing ma- chine, and the prioe obtained for un- cleaned grain by feeding it to these pigs, should certainly leave a comfortable margin of profit to the farmer. LET DS CONSIDER. The points touohed upon would bear amplification, but perhaps enough kas been said to set someone thinking. Lai .it be understood however, that there is no attempt to dictate to the farmer. Every farmer must be his own judge as to what is the best course to pursue, and the farmer who finds himself com- pelled to sacrifice his stook is deserving of sympathy. Bat let those with feed on hand take very careful counsel with themselves, and thoroughly consider all the features of the situation, before deoiding upon a line of notion. Let our action be governed by sane deliberation, and let us do all in our power to stem the disastrous tide of panic which ap- pears to threaten. Geo. E. DAY. Ontario Agricultural College. Insure Against serious Colds. 01 the many forms of insurance prob- ably that which proteins you against the Berton results of colds is the most vaI- uable et this time of year, when so many are becoming victims of la grippe and pneumonia. By the prompt nee of Dr. Ohaee's Syrup of Linseed and Tarpen- tiue you can keep the cough loose, pre- vent further development of the cold and care it in a few days. Horses Eat Too Fast. Horsemen very generally, says the Maritime Farmer, recommend that in some way horses should be made to eat slowly, for obvious reasons. cocoas. One y, is that the food should be masticated well before it is swallowed by the horse, as indigestion and assimilation of the nutritious qualities of the food are involved. One suggests that there are many ways in whioh borne that are inclined to eat too rapidly can be con- trolled, and perhaps the eimpleat plan is to put into the feed box several smooth stones, about the size of a man's fist. In 'working the feed out from around these, more time will be consumed in chewing' what is already in the mouth. The same effect will be secured by boring a tow holes in the bottom of the box and driving in page several inches long. The larger the feed boxes the better, as this will al- low the grain to spread oat thinly over the bottom,mad it m will not be possible po be for the horse to take tip the grain in etch large inonthfnls. 0.Ail.'OS 61* Cr R'IA.• Awe Or The Kidd Yoe Niue Ahtq)3 BOathl indica of SOME HING SHOULD BE ONE.

We can all remember the smart boy at the little red schoolhouse. He could beat as at any game we went in for, and he could get up his lessons by merely looking at them. when he was inclined. The teacher could not hold his own with him at repartee. He was the envy of us all Yet very probably he is now driving a delivery wagon in Toronto, or peddling books through the country, or at best teaching school on Manitoulin Island or some such plane. He was too smart, and he was too conscious of his smart- ness. A good many people are to be met wi:,h nowadays with whom clever- ness is a thing of show to be worn like a garment, and not a quality of the inner man. A young fellow steps into a big business establishment and asks for a job. He gets it -he wears bis smartness so well. For a while he has the fellows around end above him badly soared, thiuking, because he is so smart, that he may dispiaoe one or mor.) of them. Bat after a bit he walks out. The head of the department, quizzed as to his leaving growls, "Oh. he was too smart." A business man fails. Some one who does not know him asks. "What was the matter? I thought he was very smart." Some one who knows him answers, "He was too smart." Cleverness --this type of cleverness .that is a pretty accomplishment and not an attribute -sprees like a disease. We ere beginning discover a great deal of it in the plays we see, the books we read. The first aim of many of the writers of the day seems to be to stamp their work with a striking veneer of cle'►ernees. They are too conscious of their art. They subordinate the real and the human in a straining effort to make brilliant word-plsy. Many of the stories the popular authors are giving as would be good stories -moving and convincing -if they were naturally told, but their hard brilliance palls on the reader. He feels thatetheauthor has spent himself not in ire conscientious effort to illuminate his theme'and infuse life and blood into his characters, but to make display of bia cleverness. Really fine style, like everything else that is fine is not obtrusive. The -book in which the writer's cleverness is obtruded on every page is read to -day, Abut forgotten to- morrow. A NOTRS AND ..COMMENTS. According to the figures quoted by the Toronto Mail, the voting in On- tario at the last general election was Conservatives, 223,547; Liberals 220,- 049. If that differenoe in the aggre- gate vote was enough to return forty- eight Conservative members to thir- ty-eight Liberal members, the chances are that Laurier could win Ontario it he went there in person to do it. And yet most Liberals supinely oonoede Ont- ario to the Conservatives. -Montreal Herald.

The in- crease had been made up largely in im- migration from Great Britain, whioh is over forty per cent larger than last year. Immigration from the United States, on the other hand, shows a decrease of 6 about eight per cent.

Sometimes drivers of horses are care- less in the way the cross lines are ad- justed, so that the hear of the horse Is - pulled to the side, bringing the most of' the straifi upon one of the shoulders. Then, again, sometimes there is no Iink between the singletree and the -whiffle- tree, so that the inner enol of the fors. mer rests upon the latter the moment one of the horses drops a little behind, and the entire load is borne by the outside tug. horses until they get used to work should be frequently rested. If you think their shoulders do not be- come tired just because the draft is light put a five pound weight on your shoulder and walk a mile. You would think nothing of carrying a two bushel. bag of corn a rod or two, but you soon begin to think it Is a dreadful task' to carry a five pound weight even n quar- ter of a mile.

Just a word about the treatment of sweetly. 817100 it is merely nerve pa- ralysis which lies at the base of the disease, it is worse than cruel to put in rowels and setons. Rtib the mus- cles • and excite them with liniment: Use the horse with a .breast collar at some light work. The disease is very dlfilenit to cure, but ,it generally„ can be mitigated. Dipping ;Spine. On each and every forth there should. be some provision :nmlo for gipping swine. This not only proves to be ani easy and effectual method of disin- fecting animals which are being brought upon the farm, but it also fur, nishes a good way for disposing of lice. Every swine 'herd should be dipped at least twice a year, in the spring and in the fall. • There are very few herds of swine timeare not af- fected at Some time- or other with lice. Some recommend sprinkling or 'spray- ing for lice. This isnot a .very good way to overcome the difficulties as the lice are usually found on the head close . to the ears, • under the armpits 'and in other secluded places where spraying could not in• any Way emelt them. Swine thus affected, when put. through a dipping tank, will be free from all trouble. -W.• J. Kennedy. Loss hi Sheep Raising, The cause of loss In slieep raising may be summed up as follows: Firsts low ,,condition of the flock at mating time;; second, Insufficient- food andshel- ter during winter; third, neglect during lambing time; .,fourth, worrying by clogs; fifth, sellli•8' the best lambs -and keeping the culls; sLcth, using inferior" rams, and, seventh; uegle(ting to de- stroy the ticks. -W. S. T'kaser.. o THE SWINEHERD. I O O The sow that eats her pigs is -im- properly fed. Such appetites are al- ways unnatural. Turn out the breeding sows and pigs, but remember that when sows with older pigs are turned with younger ones the big ones will rob the little fel- lows. , Don't keep your little pigs shut up. They 'will thrive much better if you fence off a nice clover field for them. Give them liberty and plenty of milk. Tt,will not pay to keep the breeding stock with the market hogs. They need different care. You need not concern yourself about warm quarters at present. What the hogs need now is shade. - It is the saw that is five or six years old that makes the best mother. Those that are to young aro not the best ones. When two litters a year are raised Wean the pigs when they aro from SIX to eight weeks old. When only one litter is raised they may remain with the sow a little longer, but should trey- er be allowed to poli her down too much in flesh. rigs like and need green feed. It they have no pasture yell will bane to eat soiling craps for them. • Barley is said to be vettlable as pig feed, but it's not as good es corn. Tae sore to cut, while green, softie clover hay for the bogs .to eat during the Winter. If you cannot have the hogs under` trees, put up some kind of a beard shelter from the beat of the sub.
