TALKS WITH MorHERs-No. 2.


 Much is written at the present day about the care and feeding of infants by people ~;sose only capability for dealing with the
 ,ct is fertile brain, and whose only jim is to appear in print; every mother knows how unsatisfactory and failacious such adviceis when she attempts to follow 1t. How 70 feed the baby is the greatest problem met with in the happy state of motherhood, and upon it's solutionuepends the health, the happiness and the life of tho child. If the mother Is able to nurse her child, the question of feeding IS practically settled; if she Is not, she should be guided by those who have had successful experi- ence in feeding babies and not allow herself to experiment with different foods There are scores of artificial foods offered for sale. but the best is none too good for the baby. Eminent authorities who have thoroughly investigated the subject Of infant feeding. and scientists who have analysed infant foods. unite in pronouncing Mellin's Food to he the only perfect substitute for mothers strengthening; the weakest stomach will retain and digest it. and the puniest child will thrive upon it beyond the mothers fOndest expectations.
 For cOnvalescents, consumptfves, dyspep- tics and the aged, Mellin's Food is also of incaiculable value. It is g food. not medi- cine, and the system receives the nourish- ment 1t demands for its daily needs. For those severely i'll Mellin's Food will sustain the failing strength and promote . speedy recovery when convalescence has been established.

AT THE CREAMERY.

Whether the creamery will run is question no longer. It pays it's bills, or little better, and is slowly winning back the confidence of the public. As more and more dairies fall in line to SUD- ply milk and cream it will be better and better appreciated and be in position to make it more and profitable for patrons. October l will witness quite decided in- crease in patronage and output. The creamery is justly considered profitable because it pays fair prices and regularly, even in hard times. The butter is of ex- tra quality. The most wide-awake pat rons are now talking of having their cows fresh in August and September next year to begin with good prices af- ter the rush of the dairy season. That the season should have been a fairly profitable one, notwithstanding the drought and hard times is significant of what can be done another year with more cows, pleEty of ice and good feed, including sowed corn and early rye pas turage.
 A curiosity arrived on Wednesday in the shape of carboy of sulphuric acid, a Herculean bottle wrapped like num- my in cloths, straw and bandaged and set in big box with just it's neck out. Why do the shippers take such pains with it? Because it has such disagreea- ble habits. It makes no friends and eats into or eats up anything it comes in con- tact with. It must be kept in glass tightly stoppled, and if by chance any of it touches ones clothes hole will presently appear. Should carboy get broken, woe be to the contents of the car or freight house. It will do the meanest things imaginable, and yet it is the creamery mans best friend, for it tells ef hof iu Ini,n h h and whether they supply pure or adGl- terated article. Somebody asks if such a powerful substance is required in mak- ing fine creamery butter. Not at all. None of it is used in the butter nor in milk and cream of which butter is made. But all the milk and cream are sampled and these samples tested. Such thing was not thought of 20 years ago, but dairies and creameries are not now what they were then, and a creamery run on the old, careless methods would go to financial ruin to-day. Those who furnish milk and cream also get better prices, so it seems there is advancement in everything.
 Messrs Huntington and Purdy, pat rons of the creamery who are doing some thinking, have each bought extra COWS. Others are about to follow suit. Rev s. Gurney of Long Hill will preach again in the school house, Friday evening. The attendance is increasing. For interesting explana tions of Biblical passages MT Gurney excels.

THE FUTURE OF FARMING.

We do not think the farmers need to worry just yet about the future of their calling, despite the interesting prophecy of Prof Berthelot of France. In the September McClure's Prof Dam writes B.; What will the man of the future eatF The answer to this question has been undertaken, not by an imaginative writer, but by one of the greatest of living men of science, Prof Berthelot of Paris. And 1t may be said at once that, but for his scientific eminence and the undeniable facts upon which he bases his forecast, 1t would pass the limits of human belief. The epicure of the fu- ture is to dine upon artificial meat, ar tlficial flour and artificial vegetables drink artificial wines and liquors, and round off his repast with an artificial to- bacco beside which the natural tobacco of the present will seem poor indeed.
 Wheat fields and corn fields are to dis appear from the face of the earth, be- cause flour and meal will no longer be grown, but made. Herds of cattle, focks of sheep and droves of swine will cease to be bred, because beef and nut ton and pork will be manufactured di' rect from their elements. Fruit and flowers will doubtless continue to be grown as cheap decorative luxuries, but no longer as necessities of food orna ment. There will be in the great ali trains of the future no grain or cattle o coal cars, because the fundamental fooC elements will exist everywhere and re quire no transportation.
 Coal will no longer be dug, eHcep perhaps with the object of transforming 1t into bread or meat. The engines O the great food factories will be driven not by artificial combustion, but by thu underlying heat of the globe. In orde to clearly conceive these Impending changes, 1t must be membered tha milk, eggs, flour, meat, and, indeed al edibles, consist almost entirely (the per centage of other elements is very small of carbon, hydrogen, oxygen and nitro gen. Oxygen and hydrogen are the tw gases which, when combined, form wa ter. Oxygen and nitrogen mixed are tn air we breathe. Carbon forms the char coal of wood, Is the main constituent O coal, and as carbonic acid gas in tn air is the chief food of the vegetabl world, these four elements, universall existing, are destined to furnish all tn food now grown by nature, through tn rapid and steady advance of syntheti chemistry.

ADDITIONAL FACTS IN REFERENCE TO THE
 LEWIS AND HAwLEY ACCIDENTS.
 Ira Lewis met with quite an accident, while blasting rocks with R. B. Rock well, one day last week. Just as he had prepared the blast, using giant powder, in some unaccountable manner, the charge exploded, badly wounding one of Mir Lewis hands and injuring the other some. The shock rendered him quite deaf for time. Dr Hill was called, and was obliged to finish amputating the lit tie finger of the left hand and sew up the badly lacerated wounds, which per formance was most heroically born by MT Lewis without the use of anesthetics. He is doing as well as could be expected at this writing, and must feel that he wonderfully escaped with his life.
 A serious accident befell Charles Haw- ley on the 18th, an accident which came near proving fatal. Like progressive man he has been spending part of the leisure of the autumn blasting out rocks and clearing the land near his residence. On the morning of the ill lated day as he was prying on huge lever, team was straining at a chain put about giant rock, the chain slipped, permitted the stone to fall back upon the lever sudden ly. The small weight of a man on the long arm of the lever was nothing com pared with the weight of the rock, and the unfortunate Mir Hawley was struck under the chin and hurled a distance, be- ing rendered insensible. He remained in this condition for some time. The acci dent caused the loss of tooth, and many d lys and nights of pain, but might easily have been worse. That it was not, his many friends are sincerely grateful. ! sTEPNEY AT THE VIEWPOINT ACADEMY
