Judges W1g..

The wig is only worn by English barristers to give them stern. judi cial appearance, and no one can say that it fails in this respect. The GUS tom was originated by French judge in the seventeenth century, when, hap pening to don a marquis wig one day, he found 1t gave him such stern and dignified appearance that he decided to get one for himself and wear it at all times in court. This he did, and the result was so satisfactory from a legal point of view that not only judges. but barristers also, took up the custom throughout Europe.

Sick Blood

Feed pale girls on Scott's Emulsion.
 We do not need to give all the reasons why Scott's Emulsion restores the strength and flesh and color of good health to those who suffer from sick blood. @
 The fact that it is the best preparation of Cod Liver Oil, rich in nutrition, full of healthy stimulation is a suggestion as to why it does what it does.
 Scott's Emulsion presents Cod Liver Oil at its best, fullest in strength, least in taste.

Ant StreuEtla,

An English scientist recently weighed a small ant and q dead g;-asshopper which it was dragging to it's nest. The weight of the grasshopper was found to be sixty times greater than that of the ant. The force exerted by the ant in dragging the grasshopper along the road was therefore proportionately equal to that of man weighing 15O pounds pulling a load of four and one half tons or horse of 200 pounds q load of thirty six tons.

HORN FLY IN PICTURES.

we consider the small size of the fly the
loss of blood would seem to be insig-
niflcant, but multiply the amount of
blood consumed by one fly by thou
sands and 1t will be found quite an item.
The fly confines it's attack mainly to
cattle, but has at times been seen to at
tack the horse. 1t may be said that the
adult fly assumes two distinct attitudes
the resting and feeding. In the rest
ing stage the flies congregate on the
horns or on the back just out of reach of
the head and tail of the host, with the
wings drawn close to the body. In the
feeding stage the wings are spread ready
for flight, and the parts of the animal
most commonly attacked are the back,
sides and inner portion of the thighs
while during shower the flies flock to
the under side of the belly. In some
cases large sores are formed which are
prevented from healing by the repeated
attacks of the fly. Owing to the thin
ness Of the skin some animals are at
tackled much more severely than others
The eggs are deposited in the fresh
droppings of the cattle, where they
quickly hatch. In short time the larvae
pass into the ground and enter the pupa
stage, from which they emerge in the
adult form. The adult horn fly is about
one-half as large as the ordinary house
fly. and about the same color.
Two lines of treatment should be pur-
sued-the destruction Of the larva and
the application of some substance to pre-
vent the attacks on cattle. Knowing
that the fly deposits its eggs in the fresh
droppings of cattle and directly on the
surface of the droppings while moist,
and that the eggs can only hatch while
the droppings are in moist condition,
much can be done to prevent their hatch
ing.
One very effectual means of Destroy
ing the larvae is to scatter the drop
pings with shovel or by dragging brush
over the pasture once daily Such a
method would. however, only be prac-
tical where the cattle are running on
small pastures. In large fields a small
quantity Of lime thrown on the drop
pings would be more practical and quite
effectual in destroying the larvae or
preventing the eggs from Matching.
To prevent the attacks of the flies the
application of some sticky, offensive
smelling substance to the cattle has been
found of considerable service. The ap-
plication of tar and fish oil in equal parts,
or spraying with kerosene emulsion, has
been found quite effectual.- Farmers
