Must Love Mon.

Every relation to mankind, Of hate
or scorn or neglect, is full of vexation
and torment. There is nothing to do
with men but to love them; to contem-
plate their virtues with admiration,
their faults with pity and forgiveness.
Task all the ingenuity of your mind
to devise some other thing, but you
can never find it. To hate your adver-
sary will not help you; to kill him
will not help you; nothing within the
compass Of the universe can help you
but to love him. But let that love
flow out upon all around you, and
what could harm you? How many a
knot Of mystery Ind misunderstanding
would be united by one word spoken
in simple and conhding truth Of heart!
How many q solitary place would be
made glad If love were there, and how
many dark dwelling would be filed
with light!

Exterminate Poultry Diseases.


1t is probably easier to exterminate
poultry diseases than the diseases that
AFFECT any other kind of stock This
Is because poultry can be kept iso-
lated. Horses are constantly meeting
and coming into the vicinity of other
horses. Cattle run in adjoining pas
lures. Hogs are transported from
place to place and are great roamers
in their pastures. But fowls may be
kept practically isolated. 1t is even not
common for hens on one farm to
mi1gle with those of the next.
We believe that with proper man
agement, the poultry diseases may be
practically exterminated. Have the
feed right and then keep all things
scrupulously clean. Let in the sun
and keep the dust box full of good
dust. Give fresh water every day.
These will mean that the hens will be
free from disease. Were these things
observed universally there is no doubt
that some, if not all, of our contagious
diseases among poultry must soon die
out. Where a flock has certain dis
ease the fowls could be allowed to die
or be killed and the place where they
had been kept. used for keeping fowls
no more for at least a year. It is our
observation that there are many focks
where disease is practically unknown,.
A good many poultrymen know moth
ing OF the cholera, except what they
read in the papers. Clean up and ex-
terminate the diseases. 5s7.35... ss3 Nj. /.

A word or two as to the cooperative

subscribed to erect a factory and equip

pointed. Fifty or more farmers agree
to send their milk daily to- the fac
tory, where it Is made into cheese or
butter by an expert. Careful record
is kept OF the milk supplied by each
patron, and also of its quality in value
for cheese or butter. The products are
sold and the surplus, after taking out
the cost Of making and selling, is di-
v1ded among the patrons according to
the amount of milk that each patron
sends. In 1896 there were 57,635 pa

we all recognize that it is only fair
that both sides of a case should be

there are some views expressed by Mr..
Judd that We are compelled to regard
as erroneous. The gentleman in ques-
t1on takes the ground that the old way
OF feeding dairy cows, that is, giving
them the food in the rough and letting
them shred the fodder and grind the
grain is the best. Most of our expe-
rienced dairymen do not accept this
view of the matter. They believe it
has been well proven that the silo is
a paying institution and also that the
grinding OF grain and even the scald-
ing OF 1t in many instances pays we'll.

Cavalry Horses.

There can be no doubt that the fu-
ture will present good market for
cavalry horses, both on the Eastern
and on the Western continent. In
spite of the proclamation of the car,
armies will still continue to exist and
horsefesh will still be large part Of
the demand. Perhaps no arm Of the
service is harder to supply than the
cavalry, this being due to the fact
that it is very hard to find suitable
horses for the work in question. Be-
fore the recent war with Spain, some
army officers were sent West to look
up horses. One Of these said that he
found good horses very scarce. There
were many horses, but few of them
had the points desired in cavalry
horse.
We may expect that year by year
the Americans will obtain greater
share of the trade in the horses used
by the European armies Hitherto the
foreign governments have tried to fos-
ter the breeding Of horses fit for army
use, and in France this has taken the
form of the naturalization of the best
stations. But within a few years we
have seen American horses pouring in
to the European countries, and we may
expect to isee the custom become fash
ion. The American has great advan-
tages in his competition with Euro
pean breeders. The only thing that
can defeat our progress in this mat
ter is the breeding of poor stock. Let
the Europeans once become convinced
that the American horses are of in
ferior stock and we will lose our horse
trade as we have already lost our
trade in cheese: The movement for
the breeding of the best quality of
horses should be pushed. We can
not afford to send scrubs to the mar
ket to be inspected by European buy
ers as samples of American horsefesh.
Let us breed up and not down. Then
when the European buyer comes along
he will have such good opinion OF
American horses that he will become
the best kind of an advertisement for
u.s.. Farmers that intend to breed good
horsefesh should form associations in
each locality, in which associations the
needs of the trade can be discussed
and steps taken to secure the services
of first-class stations. In this way
only can we hope to accomplish much
good.

TWICE WOUNDED.

= It was during the summer of 1855
that resided for a time in the City of
Mexico, and at this pc riod occurred the
incident which, with regard to myself,
came near terminating & fatally.
A day or two afte my arrival in
Mexico strolled out one evening and,
half unconsciously, took my way to-
ward one Of those cool, shady walks
occasionally to be met with on the out
skirts Of the city.
AS I paced slowly IN toward part
of the walk where the trees grew
closer, forming little grove, I sudden
ly became conscious Of the presence of
two persons few steps in advance OF
me.
The persons I had just discovered
were gentleman and a lady. On OBJ
serving this fact'I was relieved OF a
momentary fear of being set upon by
desperadoes; presen ntly found my
couple to be pair Of lovers, enjoying
a stolen Interview in the little grove,
which had nearly rea ached, but check
ed myself in time to prevent discovery
just then, though I did not long avert
1t.
The first words heard were spoken
by the gentleman.
"F'ly with me tonight, dearest, en-
treat; give me the right to protect you
from the wiles of Don Pedro. Only as
my wife can I save you from the per-
'secutions Of him and his cowardly
son."
y II know it, dear Man uel," replied the
maiden, whose soft, sweet voice quiv-
cred as if in deadly terror. 1T was
only this morning I overheard con-
versation which fully apprised me of
the great power placed in the hands of
my uncle and guardian, Don Pedro de
Saltillo, a power over me which now
he proposes to share with his treacher-
ous son, Garcia"
j "How?" abruptly inquired the cav
alier.
Dearest Manuel, my guardian has
tried every means short of personal
violence to inveigle me into a marriage
with Garcia. I have heard them plot
ting; to secure me at night and carry
me to deserted ranch at distance
from the city and there, by the help of
a vicious priest, unite me to Garcia.
! IF l marry without Don Pedro's con-
sent my estates revert to him. I sue

here knowing I should meet you, who
would rescue me from my peril, but you

There is but one course to take-come
with me to my kind old tutor priest
Our marriage shall be performed at
once, and then Don Pedro and Garcia
cannot molest you unless they pass
over my lifeless body
"Hist!" whispered the lady, as in my
|blundering broke a dry twig, causing
a slight rustic among the shrubbery.
The next moment fe 1t myself grasp
led tightly by the throat, while sharp,
stinging sensation told me that had
been stabbed. I made an Intellectual

Cooperative Dairying in Canada.

g. Cooperative Dairying in Canada.
! The Dairy World of London, Eng
nnd, says: Mr.. G. c.. James, M. A.,
"a an address before the Political
Science Club of Toronto University,
deals in an able and interesting man
ner with the development of agricul-
ture in Ontario, and traces the growth
of the cooperative movement in the
Province. He says:
Il We now come to the period en-
bracing the thirty years just ended,
I867-1897. The main feature of this
period is the rise of dairying as a spe-
cialty-its is the age of the coming in
of the cheese factory and the creamery.
n 1851 the first cooperative cheese
factory had been started near Rome,
in Oneida county, New York state, and
soon after factories sprang up by the
score in the, Hudson valley and to the
west and north. In 1864 Harvey Far
rington of Herkimer county, New York
state, with commendable enterprise,
crossed over into this Province (On-
tario) and started the first factory at
Norwich, in Oxford county. By 1867
there were half a dozen more. In 1883
the number had grown to 635, and in
1896 there were in operation no less
than 1,147 that produced 100000
pounds of cheese. The gross value of

A WISE OLD SQUIRE.

A rare old book which would delight
t. the heart OF every boy who has in
h1m the making of q manly man Is the
Life of Thomas Assheton Smith,"
who for half century was the first
hunter in England, and of whom Ma
poleon IS reported to have said, "That
grand chasseur can control horses as
I do men.
This modern Nimrod was the owner
of great estates. The best horses and
dogs in England were in his vast
stables and kennels, and he boasted
that every one of them was his friend.
1t is said that when a new purchase
of hounds arrived he would go among
them, giving to each mouthful of
food, while he stroked it's head and
looked steadily and kindly into it's
eyes.
*sNow I know them and they know
me- he would say, and ever after the
dogs would come bounding to meet
him. In the morning the packs would
rush from the kennels to the park
gates and wait, painting with eagerness
for him to come out.
"No horse" he used to say, "ever
told me lie. A horse is born gentle
man." Another of his maxims was,
"The man who is friend of horses
should be clean, honorable and fit to
be a companion of ladies'" He sternly
discountenanced drink, gambling, and
all vices common among men of his
class and time. No horse which he
owned was ever allowed to work on
Sunday. God had put this dumb bro
ther in his care, with a command,
and he obeyed it. "A dog" he often
said, never trusts man who has
tricked him once. 1 could not meet
his eyes if I had lied to him." The
good old squire has long been dead, but
we can learn from him even now how
to win respect from companions who
can speak and from those who are
dumb.
