disease will be stamped out in a few days.Meantime the exhibition builgings have Leen built and made reads for \u201cexhibitors.The extcrnals are to all iu- tents and purposes complete, and the visitor to Glasgow can already appreciate the size and grandeur of the undertaking, unsurpassed hitherto in tbe United Kingdom and yielding the palm only to Paris.and.Chicago, says the New York

feet.2 courts and 12 galleries, each 100 feet long.This is a memorial to the Glasrow exhibition of 1888, as it was from the surplus of £30.000 yiclden by that exhibition that the building fund originated.In these galicries, to which titere is probably ro superior in the kingdom.both British art and archeology will be adequately repre- ( 8 f sented.| À The general grounds will be covered

Kelvingrove park while the exhibition lasts.\u2018The Machinery hall Js large, being fully 500 feet long and 200 feet wide, but the demands for the space within it have been such that it could have been filled many times over.The king's daughter, the Duchess of Fife, will open the exhibition amid: \u2018much splendor and in the presence of mary notalilities.It Is understood that a conditional promise from the king to visit the exhibition in the autumn has been privately secured.The present year witnesses great historical celebrations in Glasgow university and the visit to the city of the

ITS SUCCESS MEANS THE FARMERS\u2019 SUCCESS.The farmer who wants to make money must first become a shareholder in this Company, which is the only company of its kind, and by so doing show that he means business, as, his money being invested, his interests and the interests of the Company are the same, and then raise poultry, turle vs, ducks and geese for the Company.This Company will buy ONLY FROM ITS OWN SHAREHOLDERS; therefore with care and attention every farmer and every farmer's wife and every man woman and child of ordinary intelligence in Oanada who has fifty dollars can buy ten shares and become a shareholder, and by beginning in a small way and saving his profits make himself wealthy, like Mr, Taylor has done.Who Mr.Taylor is is explained in the following extracts from a story told by Professor Robertson, the well known Commissioner of Agriculture and Dairying for Canada, to to the Standing Committee of the House of Commons:\u2014 \u201cWELL-TO-DO FARMERS FATTEN CHICKENS.MONEY IN THE BUSINESS, I had got the name of Mr.Samuel Taylor from one of the leading poultry dealers in London.When I got to his place I found Mr.Taylor was a successful farmer.HE HAD BEGUN LIFE AS A FARM LABORER WITHOUT CAPITAL.When I visited him he had a fine farm-standing and was doing 2 prosperous business.I would not like to say how much money the chicken fattening business brought him in, but I would not be surprised to learn that his annual net balance was over a thousand pounds (live thousand dollars) a year.That man had begun life a farm laborer and by sticking to this business had made money out of it.THE PROMOTERS ARE NOW ARRANGING TO ESTABLISH not less than twelve receiving and shipping stations in Canada, to be fitted with plants necessary to make the exported article as perfect as possible.\u2018The number of stations in each Province will be as nearly equal as possible, having regard for the size of the Province and the number of shareholders in cach.The operations of the Company to be confined for the present to Ontario, Quebee, New Brunswick, Nova Scotia and Prince Edward Island.The Company is engaging the most experienced help to be found in Canada and England and is making the best possible arrangements in England to secure the very highest prices for its shipments.THE BUYERS OF THIS COMPANY will commence operations, it-is expected, on or about the 1st of June, 1901, when they will eall on the shareholders and arrange with them as to the continuous supply\u2014that is, the number each shareholder will raise and supply each month to the nearest receiving station of the Company.It is therefore necessary that all intending shareholders who wish to raise poultry for the company send in their subscription for stock at once, as the Company will only buy from its shareholders and the lists will be closed.THIS IS A GRAND CHANCE TO MAKE MONEY for either farmers or THEIR WIVES and those who either cannot afford to keep up a large farm or who, through some infirmity or poor health, are not able to attend to the heavy duties of farming.PSICES TO BE PAID.\u2014This Company will pay the very highest prices to its shareholders, so as to encourage the raising of first-class poultry, and, as it will year in and year out be selling at the high prices to be obtained in England, it can afford to pay more than the best prices paid for birds now sold on the Canadian market, GREAT PRICES IN ENGLAND.\u2014 Chiken shipped to Liverpool, England, met with a ready sale at eightpence (sixteen cents) per pound.As they weighed eievan pounds per pair, they sold for one dollar and seventy-six cents a pair.JUST THINK FOR A\u2019 MOMENT\u2014one dollar and seventy-six cenis a pair for chickens in England, and veu it is only a fair market price there, and the profits are equally as good, if not better ou turkeys, ducks and geese, The consignee wrote as follows about the shipment: \u2014*I was agreeably surprised ot the all-round excellence of your small experimental shipment of Canadian capons (chickens.) On opening the cases the birds were found to be in beautiful condition, and presented a most saleable appearance.After the birds were uncased I huag one to find out how long it would retain its bright appearance, and found that it became milky white as soon as it had dried out of the chilled state; to-day, five days later, it is as nice looking os a fresh killed bird.I think the price obtained will both please and pay you.It isa fair marker: price.\u201d | LEARN ALSO THAT THERE Is Three Firms Alone Intimated Their Ability and Wiilingness to Handle About Two Thousand Cases Per Week at Good Prices.RAISING POULTRY PAYS\u2014It pays better to fatten them, and it pays best to chip them to England.The shipment sent to Liverpool, England, above described, brought one dollar and seventy-six cents per vair; the farmer sold them to the shipper for fifty-four cents per pair, which is al ove the average price, as often he does not get more than thirty cents per pair; ean anything be clearer than that Lhe farmer is failing to make enormous profits?By becoming a shareholder you will commence putting the money in your own pocket.SUCCESS\u2014T'his Company is a natural outgrowth of the great and wonderful cold storage system.Before \u201ccold storage\u201d became known it would have been an impossibility to carry on this great business, but now the great success of cold or chilled storage is the maker of this enormous husiness, which will prove a money-maker for its shareholders.Space will not permit giving a deseription of the great arrrngements to be made, of the many receiving and shipping stations, abattoirs, cold storage plant, offices and agencies this company will establish in the different Provinces of Canada and in England, or of the numerous employees it will engage to do the buying, killing, plucking, packing and shipping; the instructors ihe Company will engage will give to the working shareholders such directions and assistance as they may desire.THE HEAD OFFICE WILL BE AT HAMILTON, ONTARIO, and from there MR.WILLIAM S.GILMORE, THE EXPERIENCED MANAGER, will divect its affairs, Mr.Gilmore is already well known to many Canadians, but for those who do not know him, and who would naturally like to know something of the man who is to direct the affairs of the Company in which they intend to invest their money, the following extracts from a letter written by the celebrated firm, F.W.FEARMAN Co., LIMITED, the greatest pork packers and provision merchants, and probably the oldest established flrm of its kind in Canada, to the propesed bank of this Company, will be of interest: GENTLEMEN, \u2014At the request of Mr.W.S.Gilmore I write to advise you that we have known him for years, and have had during that time continuous dealings with him as cne of our customers.He is a practical provision dealer and buteher of many years\u2019 experience.He is about fifty years of age, but active and progressive, and as a judge of poultry, live or dressed, he is certainly the equal of the best in Hamilton.As to his personal character, respectability and integrity, we believe he is fully to be relied on for anything he will undertake, : SPECIAL NOTICE.Every shareholder in this company is not obliged to raise poultry simply because he is n sharehiolder\u2014any- body can buy stock in the Company, and the net profits or dividends \u201cwill be divided between all shareholders alike, and it is safe to say they will get large dividends for their money.EXCLUSIVE PRIVILEGE\u2014The Company extend an exclusive rivilege to those who hold ten shares or more of the Company\u2019s stock, to raise poultry, turkeys, {duck, geese, ete.for the Company, to supply the great demand and to this class of shareholders the Company will pay the very highest prices for their birds.They will Le given the great advantage of careful Instruction, free of charge, in the art of raising and fattening poultry, as well as receiving their share of all the profits of the Company, and, as the promoters wish to make this a Company by the farmers and for the farmers, all the employees of the C y wi ; ; \" ers and their families.s ploy Company will be chosen from among the sharehold ,_,, THE CAPITAL STOCK of this Company is divided into shares worth five dollars each limited number of shares are offered for public subscription, but no subscription will be accepted for less than ten shares (850.)

grow rapidly from the start if the dam Is fed and cared for rightly.The dam is all the better for being worked moderately right up to within a few days of foaling.If you have more brood mares than you cun work, be sure to give them proper exercise by turning them into the field or lot during pleasant days, but always stable at night if the weather is at all cool or wet.£ like a box stall not less than 14 feet square in which to turn the dam loose, You can tell at least several hours beforeliand when the dam is going to foal.When the milk is plentiful in the bag and begins to drop out, you may expect the foal soon.I have kept close watel over my brood mares for several years, and they have invariably foaled between 2 o'clock and 6 o'clock p.m.or 2 o'clock and 6 o'clock a.w., and I always ain to be on hand, so as to render assistance if necessary.1 have raised a good many colts and have never lost one at foaling time.The dam will be ravenously hungry and should have a pull of water 2nd a wisp of bright Lay immediately after fouling.She will eat as though starving.She should not have any corn for several days and but little oats the first \u2018 two or three days.The oats can Le increased grodually until the dam is on, ber regular feed, Watch the bowels of both daw and foal, The danger from this source is much greater than most men thivk, for nuoy feals dic when 2 er 3 days old if their bowels do not move ali right.They will refuse to! suck and dwindle along a day or two till they die.When you notice the first symptoms of trouble, give an injection, of one or two quarts of war soapsuds.| I use tar soap, which I have always found satisfactory.If this does not give inmodiate relief, give ns à dreneb one-half plot of raw linseed oil, I have never known these remedies to fail if used in time.\u2019 If the foal dees not come until after we have grass, turn the dam cn grass, and the danger from bowel trouble will be greatly lessened.But I much pre- for my colts to come by the first half of April than later.I do not work a mare for ten days after foaling.When the foal Is 10 days old, the mare should be bred again, or if the tenth day happens on Sunday I breed on the ninth! day.1 do not think it advisable to scouer than that, If you find it will throw your colts too early to breed the! mare the tenth day, you will doubtless, find ber in season some time between: the twenty-elghth and the thirty-sixth ;

San Juan, ealved Feb.11, 1990; Bartlett, calved Feb.6, 1900.The three bulls weighed when 1 commenced to feed them Dee.27, 1900, 2,180 pounds.On Jan, 10, 1001, they weighed 2,240 pounds; Jan.23, 2,830 pounds.and Jan.31, 2,375 pounds.I fed them (rom the beginning 8 pounds of wheat bran, 6 ponds of oats aud 40 pounds of alfalfa bay per day for the first 14 days.The rest of the time from Jan.10 to 51 they got 8 pounds of wheat bran, 4 pounds of corn chop and 40 pounds of alfalfa hay cach day.Prices of foods are: Alfalfa hay per ton, $8: wheat bran per ton.$16; corn chop per ton, $16; Colorado oats per ton, $20.1 find that oats and bran produce plenty of inuscle and bone.A little corn chop added wakes the cattle flesh up In good shape.1 think If breeders would adopt this way of feeding they would not burn their young stock up inside as ig the case with so much corn.Everywhere I went it was either shelled corn with Llue grass pasture or corn in the ear with sugar cane or Kaflir corn.Some feeders in Kansas feed corn and coh men) and sugar cane or Kaffiy corn.which I think is better than .Scours In Calves.For scours In calves give two or three tablespoonfuls two or three times a day of powdered charcoal until a cure is effected, which will not be long, If they put it In thelr mouths, and they wil soon take it freely.\u2014Farm and Home.CLYDESDALE AND SHIRE, | A Champion of the Latter Dreeëd Coms ! _ pares the Two Horses, A Kansas admirer of the Shire horses compares the two Lrzeds in a letter to The Breeder's Gazette: There fs no doubt the Scotch and English horses, the lest ones of the two breeds, strongly resemble each other, but the average Clydesdale does\u2019 not have that clean, bony head, high carriage, well sprung rib and short back, and with regard to the Shire\u2019s legs.why, he is the largest boned horse of eny breed.It is a common thing to find a Shire stallion measure 12 inches under the kuee, and bis pasterns, in my way of thinking, are everything to be desired in a draft horse.Iis feet are big aud strong -enough for a horse of his weight, and CHAMPION SHIRE STALLION HAILSTONE, a horse that is good enough to be usea in France and in fact in aluost every \u2018 country trust surely be a good une.George LE.Trown of I\u2026inois Las this to say concerning Shires: The advancement of Shive horse interest in this country has been seriously retarded Ly a number of conditions, for which the breed is Llameless, First of all is the one I bave referred to où different occasions\u2014viz, tbe wide difference between the selling price in England ef strictly first class sound animals and that of inferior unseund ones.The hest English breeders will not patronize inferior or unsound stallions on sty terms, Hence they must find a foreign market for them, for if sited they would not bring the price of third class geldings.This net accouiits for so many of thnt class of Shires fizding their way to America, : Second, Shires in America Lave not had the undivided efforts of individual ! the other them to case with importers in front, which breeds.pushing is the alse one or two more coi peting breeds, hence Shire without hurting {heir other interests.In fact, they know they ecan- not afford to bring the highest type of Shire or else their other horses would suffer by close comparison.I know of some firms who have purposely brought over inferior Shires and kept them solely to support their claims of superiority for their favorites by cowm- parison.Again, Shires have suffered from the lack of concerted effort of their various owners.which Las been enjoyed by other breeds.On the contrary, there has been un unhealthy rivalry and jealousy among Shire importers almost from the very first.Dorsets and Shropshires.Dorsets will drop two sets of lambs a year very often if permitted to do so, says Joseph E.Wing In The Breeder's Gazette.It is not generally a good practice.One crop dropped at the right season from ewes strong and full of milk is most profitable, cross of ewes from a Dorset sire will generally lamb in the fall.Very interesting trials were wade by the Wisconsin experiment station to test (Lis point.Comparing Shropshires and Dorsets is hardly fair to either.The Dorset is a speeinl purpose breed, devoted to the early lamb business.It distances all competition fu this field.The Shropshire is generally a better wooled sheep.One is as hardy as the other so far as I can see.Nor can I say which is the larger, as that would need a knowledge of à great many average weights, which, so far as I know, have never been gatbered.The Dorset is perbaps a trifle the larger sheep.If the lambs are to be grown and fed off at 10 or 12 months, the Shropshire has the advantage.The Angora Gont.In some of the western states they are getting about as excited over the Angora goat as they have been over the Belgian hares.In fact, the gont is the older excitement of the two, as first importations were made in 1848 and the uext in 1866, when seven head were brouglit to California.These were from Turkey, and in 1893 and 1899 new blood was secured from South Africa.The fleece, or mohair, is second only to silk in fineness and luster, and articles made from it are more lasting than silk.Twice as much of it was imported from Turkey and South Afrira last year as was produe- ed in this country; also about 25,000,- 590 goatskins.The flesh is sald to be sften sold as mutton, but more nearly resembles venison in grain and flavor.with the fats distributed through the meat instead of placed on the outside.ns with the sheep, The goats are much prized as clearers of brush land.While they are pretty and useful animals we do not hear of many of them coming to the eastern states.\u2014American Cultivator.With a few exceptions the: men who are importing Shires have \u2018 cannot consistently argue with\u2019 much force on the strong points of the The first, MAKING DIRT ROADS.THORCUGH DRAINAGE OF.UTMOST IMPORTANCE, l'Eupervision of nn Engineer Not Nec- essary-Preparinz \u2018the \u2018Sabgrude.Shaping the Réadway-llow tu Hnusdie Storm Water, The construction cf a dirt road does not necessarily require the supervision ;

nomical for the roadmaker to put in five 12 fach pipes at intervals along a.mile of road as it is for him to carry the water along the roadway in the! upper ditch a mile or more and be com- pelied to use a 24 inch pipe.If he were to put the water across the road in short runs where low places ex!st- ed, he would then prevent that much seepage from softening the road.In fact, a well drained road is usually a good road, excepting where sand oe- eurs, Heep the Itonds Clean.The road sbeuld at all times be kept clean and free from mud and dirt, aud any vegetable matter that would ten) to cause it to be soft and muddy shod be restoved, ELECTRICAL JOTTINGS, Recent Discoveries, Inventions, Etes, of Interest to Laymen, By a timely and novel use of Roentgen rays.the weasury departinent of the Argentine Republic was recently enabled to detect smuggling, It appears that over $1,000,000 is.to be expended Ii establishing over this country electrical sanitarivms for the cure of consuruption, The recent test of transmitting ple- tures electrically by means of the clee- trograph over the police telegraph lines In Cleveland was eminently successful, The British postal telegraph depart- meut recently completed the laying of the underground telegraph enable in pince of the overhead wires between London and Birmingham, a distance of 117% miles, the longest underground telegraph eable in the world.Experiments just completed demonstrated the practicability of lighting up Niagara fulls Ly electricity to be generated by the falls.New aud powerful apparatus operating senchlights will hereafter ennble visitors to sve the falls at night, Plans were recently laid before the German government for an extremely high speed electric railway, No uctual experimental line has yet Leen constructed, Lut is proposed to lmlld as & (rini n military line intended for a speed of from 125 to 150 miles an hour, A submarine clectrie are light will Soon be experimented with to ald in the sponge fishery off the coast of Flor- fdi, AL present the sponges are oh- tained only from a comparatively smal!

the ways of \u201cOur Father\u201d are past finding out and we must learn to believe that \u201cIIe doeth all things well.\u201d Mr, James Bean arrived home last Saturday night having passed the winter in Colorado in search of health, which we are sorry to say has not returned to him, The doctors finally consented to allow him to make the journey.Mr.Vaughan, who is staying in Colorado with a sick brother, accompanied him home and gave him needed care.Bean is rejoiced to get home, but is very low.It is sad to see young manhood cut down and wither like a leaf, but who can douht the wisdom of God.A Presbyterian student from the Montreal College is stationed here for the summer, and is boarding at Mr.@&.Hitcheock\u2019s.Mr.Parnell of Ascot Corner has been at Mr.J.Colt\u2019s visiting lately.Mrs.Nettie Chadsey of Ways Mills was at Mr.A.Hurd\u2019s on Sunday; also Mr.Eli Bangs and wife of Rock Island.Mr.W.Hunting and Miss G.Robinson visited his relatives at Hunting- ville Saturday and Sunday.Mr.Dana Hunting was at Mr.II.Hunting\u2019s on Sunday.Some excitement has been caused by the report that a young child is lost at Burrough\u2019s Falls.Squads of men searched the vicinity yesterday and today.Particulars are conflicting.We hope there is no truth in it, but await developments.Mr.E.Parker of Lennoxville was in town today.HALL'S STREAM.Beautiful weather for our spring's work.Quite a large amount of oats and other seed has been put in the ground.It is a very fine and early spring.P.T.Baldwin of Coalicook was in town last week looking after the interest of the Bean estate.Miss Jennie M.Rowell has returned and has taken a district school in Pittsburg, N.H.Miss Gussie Evans of Sawyersville has the school in District No.2, at Halls Stream Miss Anna Lobdell of Sawyersville is visiting friends at Hall\u2019s Stream.Mrs.W.GG.Hibbard went to a hospital in Montreal last Thursday.Her husband and a physician accompanied her.Mr.Horace Bigelow of Canaan, Vt, is making preparations for building a house near C.O.Hibbard\u2019s on Hall Stream.CORLISS MILLS.Miss Kate McKenzie has gone to North Hatley for the summer.The new cheese factory at Bickford Corner is now in course of construction.Will be ready to receive milk on the 20th inst.Mr.and Mrs.Silas H.Carpenter of Montreal were here visiting friends last week.Mr.Charles Jordan who has been very ill for the past three weeks, goes to the Protestant Hospital, Sherbrooke, next Tuesday for treatment.We sincerely trust he may recover.SCOTT'S Stop it with EMULSION of Cod Liver Oil.A little conghing is nothing \u2014the tickling, that makes you cough once, 1s some dust; not the least harm.You scratch an itch, and forget it.This cough is scratching an itch, But the cough, that hangs on and comes back, is a sign of an itch that hangs on and comes back.There is something that makes that itch, Inflamation: a germ; its alive ; like a sced in moist warm ground ; it will grow if you let it, even in children.Take SCOTT'S EMULSION of Cod Liver Oil.and the germ will die.If vou have not {ried it, send for a free sample, its agreeable taste will smprise yout SCOTT & BOWNE, Chemists, Toronto soc.and $1.00 ; all druggists.ABOUT OUR NEIGHBORS.! The Rev.H.A.Brooke will hold services at Griffin\u2019s Corner on Sunday afternoon at 4 o'clock.All cordially invited.Although it has been found impracticable to rebuild the hotel at Owl\u2019s Head at present.this popular resort will be conducted on a modest scalo the coming season.Besides a number of nice cottages which have been fitted up for rent, the \u201cCasino\u201d, having dining room, kitchen, sitting- room, office und waiting rooms on the :ground floor and ten guest rooms above, will be open to the public at reasonable rates.The manager ia anxious to secure a large local transient business, particalarly this month and next.No one has done more to make Lake Memphremagog : popular than has Mr.Watkins.For years his time, energy, and money, all went into the hotel recently burned.Fortunatels for the public his hopes and aspirations did not die with the!

GROWING.Some Thinza to ITnow \u2014 The Dest Year\u2014~Alwonys Cut on Time, A large and increasing desire for information about the culture of alfalfa Ly farmers throughout Ohio leads the station authorities to the following statement: On the thin clays of the station farin the results of the experiments thus far made with this plant have not been encouraging, hut there are large areas within the state where heavy sheets of drift clay are found which, when underdrained, should produce this crop to advantage.Again, there are other regions of well drained, black soils and rieh, upland clays and bottom lands, which are naturally drained by underlying gravels.These offer conditions that have been found most favorable to alfalfa.Mr.Joseph E.Wing of Olio, whose land is of the kind last mentioned, has furnished the following hints as to culture: \u201cThe best way to sow alfalfa is to plow the land deep in the spring or winter.Turn up a little new soil.harrow down and sow beardless spring barley at the rate of two bushels to the acre.Sow 15 pounds or na peck of alfalfa seed at the same time, I usually roll the land well after sowing.This makes the alfalfa do better, Lut is sometimes hard on the barley.Al falfa will come up through very firm soil and thrive better than when Rt is too loose.Let the barley ripen.and cut it for grain.Then when the alfalfa starts up a little clip it with the mower, Clip it close, lt will start again, and after n month or so clip again.\u201cKeep the stock off until next year, It Is better to keep stock off for two years.Begin mowing the second year as soon as blossoms form.After the first crop is taken off it will mature another in exactly 30 days.Do not delay cutting this second crop.It will take about 35 days for the third crop to grow.Take jt off promptly.Then In 35 or 40 days there Is the fourth trop.Take it or graze It.\u2018The third year is the best in the alfalfa\u2019s life, though it may not decline for ten years.Keep all stock off It after frost; it is deadly then.Stock injures it by treading on it after it is fro- ten.Do not pasture it close In summer.\u201cThere is a point of great importance mn the growth of alfalfa.If alfalfa Is left standing too long, there comes on the leaves a reddish rust.This rust causes the leaves to fall.Then the stem becomes woody, and the hay Is of little value, and if it is not cut there will not be any growth of consequence, As soon, therefore, ns this rust is seen the alfalfa must be cut, and It must be cut no matter If it is a gmall growth.\u201cAnother point: During a dry time | i ! | | | greater credit There are probably only cequally good culture is given, \u201chas been reported that was a one THE SOUTHERN COWPEA.CLlendily Pustiing No: favward-£houlàd Le Trerted
