WINNIPEG, Manitoba, July 22-The Win

contained in the latest crop bulletin issued by
the department Of agriculture and statistics
are most encouraging. The prospects of a
bountiful harvest this year are still un
dimmed, and the farmers are looking for
ward to a golden return for their labors dur
ing the past year. 1t is critical year in the
history Of Manitoba as an agricultural coun

of many that this province was not suited tc

Disease in Swine,

The very common disease in swine,
which produces weakness in the back
and paralysis of the hind limbs, may be
due to more than one cause. 1t is at
times caused by parasites in the fat or
muscles of the loins; at other times by
worms in the kidne IS. Disease of the
kidneys will also cause it, as will rheu-
matism, or irritation of the muscular
fiber of the loins. But the most fre-
quent cause is disease of the spine,
known as spinal meningitis, which con-
sists of inflammation of the covering
membrane of the spinal cord. with effu-
sion upon it, thus causing pressure upon
the nerve. Some of these causes are
hereditary and constitutional, and are
spread by breeding from diseased ami
mails. But almost all of them are
amenable to simple treatment, as the
use of cooling and Alternative medicines,
and counter irritants applied to the
loins. Relief is frequently afforded by
giving the animal two to four ounces of
raw linseed oil, with half an ounce of
turpentine, fomenting the back with
hot water, and after drying it applying
spirits of turpentine or camphorated
spirits to the loins The feeding should
be moderated. as overfeeding is some
times the cause of it, and always in
creases the difficulty. even when it is
not the primary cause. Good dry shell
ter is also necessary, and such attention
to sanitary measures as will keep the
animal in good health. No animals
thus affected should be used for breed
ing.-N Y. Times.
"A fashionable young lady at the
Grand Union, in Saratoga, gives the
following account of her silver poodle:
''He's daisy, he is. So nice and
clever He has his tooth brush and
keeps just as still when the maid uses it
with the powder. He barks to have his
hair oiled and combed, and takes 3
shampoo with perfect delight. When
he goes to bed he lays his head on the

Stealing Eagles.

A farmer named Peter Cow, in Dun
wich, is in possession of several young
eagles, whose eyrie is in tall tree on
his farm. Several boys in Dutton have
had hankering for these eagles for some
time, but Mr.. Cow said he would not
part With them at any price. The boys
were determined that he should, and
one night this week they appeared at
the foot of the tree with pixies attached
to their legs, after the mode of the tele-
graph erectors, and stout strap to
buckle around the tree to assist in
climbing. The boldest boy in the
crowd climbed the tree, and when about
sixty. feet from the ground, just under
the eagles nest, his strap dropped and
lodged where it could not be got He
was in predicament. He could not
get down without assistance, which the
boys could not give. Various plans
were suggested, but to no purpose. So
towards morning, when the boy in the
tree got tired of hanging on and was
about to drop, they went to Mr.. Cows
house and besought him to come out
with rope and help save the life of the
youngster in the tree. The old gentle
man forgot the iniquity OF their act and
ran to the barn, took the rope out of
his hay-fork and went to the tree at a
two-forty gait. The question was:
How to get the rope up to the boyP
After considerable cogitation the lad
up in the tree was seen tearing
his shirt, and the problem was solved.
The shirt not being sufficient his pants
were next made into strips and tied to-
gether. They reached the ground; the
rope was attached to it and drawn up,
and down came the lad from his preca-
rlous position as naked as when he was
born. Mr.. Cow provided the youngster
with pair of pants and horse blanket
to.keep the mosquitoes from eating him

swamp. These boys think stealing
