deafness Cannot he Cured

by local applications, as they cannot reach
the diseased portion of the ear. There IL
only one way to cure deafness, and that is
by constitutional remedies. Deafness is
caused by an infamed condition of the mu-
cous lining of the Eustachian Tube. When
this tube gets inhamed you have rnm n.
sound or imperfect hearing, and when 1t is
entirely closed deafness is the result, and
unless the inflammation can be taken out
and this tube restored to its normal con-
dition, hearing will be destroyed forever'

tain mixers can never get clean. They
milk out all that flows readily, strip
around once or twice, and call her fin
ished. With some cows this-wiu do
but with others the mixer must reach
well up on the udder, and work it with
a sort of lneading process. A little
manipulation of this sort will cause
the whole quantity to flow in to the
teats, whereas without 1t there will be
from a gill to pint of the richest milk
left in the udder every time, which
means prematurely dry COW.

Improvement in Tomatoes.

There is great difference in the quail,
ty of tomatoes both as regards smooth
ness and solidity. When first intro.
duced, tomatoes were simply skinny
bags of water and seeds, having very
little pulp and not much besides their
flavor to recommend them. They were
also very rough, with hollows where
the sun did not thoroughly ripen them.
II is no wonder that people were slow
in learning to like them. But as the
demand has increased most of the
roughness of the old-time tomato has
been bred out of it. While the flavor
remains the same, there is much more
pulp or flesh inside and less of water
and seeds than used to be the case, and
it does not all cook away as it used
to do.

Hotbeds and Cold Frames.

Hotbeds are used in winter, but cold
frames are preferred in summer. To
prepare a hotbed make frame 10
inches high at the rear and ten inches
at the front, three feet wide and of
any preferred length. Fill it half full
of clean horse manure and then with
six inches of rich dirt, using glass sash
for covering, Cold frames may be made
in the same manner, but no glass is re-
CURED. Leaf mold for hotbeds may be
prepared by composing leaves with
manure, but what is usually meant by
leaf mold it top soil from the woods.

Canada has other gold fields, though
They are the fields that produce her golden
grain. This year the crop of Manitoba, ly.
ing north of North Dakota, yielded q, 0O0-
600 bushels of wheat alone. The current
price averages rs cents, which, as q local
paper puts it, makes the product in gold
this year, for wheat alone, equal to n value
Of ,Sl5,960,000." Twenty thousand farmers
did this, or an average to each producer of
about $79S.
but these same farmers are not living by
wheat alone. This is only one source of rev.
enue to them out of many. They have also
beef, butter, potatoes, oats, barley and poul-
try to sell, and sometimes other things, so
that it may be fairly estimated that their in
comes will average at least 81, 900 per farmer.
Thus Manitoba fields have yielded this year
fully $4,000 900 in gold, divided among 90,
600 actual producers, and a general popula-
ton of about 100000"
After counting the cost OF stamp mills, eX-
penses of men, ETC., rich as is the Klondike,
such vast wealth as is being taken out of the
soil in raising wheat in this one province,
cannot possibly be secured in any mining
district. OF course mining development as.
sists agricultural development, and that is
why the Government of Canada feels so much
assurance in predicting prosperity to all who
take up farms in Canada. Western Canada
to-day promises more than any other known
field that is open to immigration. Farms of
100 acres, capable Of producing the best No.
l, hard wheat, yielding thirty to forty bush
els to the acre, are given away free. Rail.
ways, markets, schools, churches-al are

ment is one of the most liberal known, and a
hearty welcome is given to settlers Of all ma.
tionalities. Already there are many settlers
gone in from the states, and the reports
from them are highly favorable. Those de
