Tricksters at Fairs.

Wherever large numbers of people
gather, class of persons is usual y
found who make living by deceiving
the public. They have schemes and
tricks innumerable that appear to be
easy and simple; but in reality they are
quite difficult and in some cases impos-
sible to successfully perform. They
have wheels and machines that are doc J..
tored TO turn as the proprietor may
wish to make them. They have cocoa
nut.headed negro dodgers to arouse the
brutality in men and boys. They have
tented shows which are disgusting in
coarseness and vul 5arity.
Among the throngs at agricultural
fairs these leeches are out of place.
They contribute nothing helpful or
good. They do not add to the attrac-
ton of the fair. They do not bring
desirable patrons. They do not swell
the gate receipts. They are not pat
ronized by intelligent patrons of the
fair. They are not wanted by honest
farmers. They are Stunned with fear
by thoughtful parents. Because of
their presence, even the fair is not pat
ronized by many OF our best citizens
families.
The harm accomplished by these
self invited fakirs would doubtless sur
prise us, were it possible TO gather and
trace back to their door all the results
of their work. They distract the
thought, they divert the attention,
they destroy the interest in the real
work OF the fair. The competitive ex-
hibitions, the meritorious displays, the
awarding of prizes are all robbed of the
undivided interest that belongs to them
and which the proprietors have labored
day and night to develop.
The morals of the country suffer Sc.
iiously, we believe, from actions and
words that, without warning, are
sprung upon inquisitive audiences in
the tent shows. We are glad to see
that strong effort is being put forth
this season TO keep these Objectionable
features out of the grounds, and the
attitude of managers is encouraging

The Improbable Cow.

dairyman can expect no profit from
q cow until she has paid for her keep.
Whether that item be large or small,
the cow exacts it week by week, and
refuses TO return any profit till it is
paid. If she is so constituted that she
requires all the food she can eat to
maintain her, then the returns are mi
nus. 1t is claimed that it takes at
least twenty pounds of butter TO pay for
a cows feed, and labor consequent on
i we could draw hard and fast line at
two hundred pounds of butter, and dis
card all animals that do not come up to
that mark, we should be making
greater stride towards moro profitable
condition of dairying than could be
done in any other manner. There is
no doubt that few of these unprofit.
able animals are being welded out each
year, but there are ali equal, if not
larger number of them born. Certain
ly there are a few promising cases in
the wilderness of Improbable cows,
but the outlook is that for many years
the one hundred and fifty pound cow
will continue to flourish.
1t is much easier to keep on with the
Improbable animal than it is to find
out where the loss is. The dairyman
does not miss the dollar which has new
er been in his pocket, and consequently
the idea of using the hard-earned dol
lar he has, to find out how he lost the
two dollars he ought to have, does not
appeal forcibly to the average dairyman.
He is much more liable to lay the
hlan,a for hia moor auccaaa On a blatant
scapegoat The poor price of butter at
Egip, or the price of poor butter near
home, are convenient hooks on which
to hang failures due to his own ignor-
ance and neelect.-Hoard's Dairyman.

SHEEP AND LAMBs.-The market keeps
about steady at last weeks rates. Canada

Mich Cows.-The situation is the same.
The call is largely for the better class Of

BEEF CATTLE-The strength OF tone Is
interfered with somewhat by the fact that
exporters are purchasing inferior Canadian
cattle at low range. Some sales were eff

Dairy Topics.

Butter for storage must be pretty
dry. If too much water is present it
will not keep well and storage buyers
let it alone. In the summer it is econ
omy not to load butter with water, for
il will not keep 30 well nor sell at as
high price. Churn early in the morn
ing and work it while the air is cool.
Cattle should thrive if they can fad
plenty of grass, good water and shade
during the heat of the day. II there
are no trees, put up shed on poles.
Allow cattle to pasture freely on hot
days during early morning and late
nights. A lump of rock salt in the pas
ture is conducive to good health.
Ten or twelve cows are as many as
one person should be required to milk
twice day. Always let each cow have
her own particular stall and give her
the same mixers all the time. Cows,
like people, get used TO their own
friends and like to have them around.
A cow that is fed up so as to make
her produce her very best this year,
and make her milking period long,
will do better next year because her
capacity for giving good flow of milk
for long period has been developed.
She will also transmit her improved
qualities, in some measure, to her
calves. This is the way our great pro-
ducing herds have DeeR built up.
Breeding and feeding combined have
done it; mel her by itself could have
done it.-Practical Dairyman.

A Talk With Dairymen.

Don't get cranky COW notions in
your head.
If you find that feeding ensilage or
roots in winter pays you don't imagine
that it will pay everyone else to use
those succulents.
II you get good results from common
cows, don't say that they are good
enough for you and hint that those who
keep high grades or pure breds and
say they get much better results than
you are stretching the truth
Be ever open to new ideas, but when
you get one don't nurse it 30 that you
can't see any good in any other new
things.
And after you have learned about
some new thing, have practiced it and
found it to be good, don't go around
talking it up as though you originated
it.
Be liberal in all things and quick to
see the best points in others practice;
after having tried and proved them, be
diligent 10 communicating them to
others who know nothing about them.
1t sometimes pays to examine into
ones own methods, the methods we
are dead sure are about perfect, and
look at them critically TO see if there is
not possibility that what we thought
well nigh perfect is far from being 80.
1t may be that in 30 important part
OF the business as to which product we
should sell, milk or butter, we have
made mistake and are selling the one
that brings in the least money.
There is much more money made in
selling milk at retail than in sell ne
butter; aGd there is much more work
connected with it.
Some dairymen living near small
vii age ten years ago may now find the
vilige quadrupl ID in size and able tc
take large quantity of dairy products
fruits, eggs and poultry.
The man who secures the best OF this
trade shout make good living ant
save money.
The small markets often pay bettel
than the big ones.
When there are summer boarding
houses and hotels near they furnish
a good market for all prime eatables; i
will be found to pay to grow only thu
best, there is not much made in selling
second class products.
And that is one reason why som,
dairymen make money while other
lose; they sell only the best goods, th,
others second and third grade. Ma

Deafness Cannot be Cured

by local applications, as they cannot
reach the diseased portion of the ear.
There is only one way TO cure deafness,
and that is by constitutional remedies
Deafness is caused by an infiamed con-
.dition of the mucous lining of the Eus-
tachian tube. When this tube is in
famed, you have a rumbling sound or
imperfect hearing, and when it is en-
tirely closed deafness is the result, and
unless the Inflammation can be taken
out, and this tube restored to its nor
NAL condition, hearing will be destroyed
forever. Nine cases out of ten are
caused by catarrh, which is nothing but
an inflamed condition of the mucous
surfaces.
We will give one hundred dollars for
any case of deafness Caused by catarrh)
