Ringing Bells to Swarm Bees.

II is a foolish notion to suppose that
the ringing of bells or hanging" of
tin pans will cause a swarm of bees to
settle The real origin Of this Gus
tom dates back to the reign of Alfred
the Great, who in order to prevent dis.
putes regarding the ownership of a
swarm ordered that the owner should
always ring bell when his bees
swarmed; and, ever since then, the
good farmers wife has been rushing
out with ringing bells whenever the
bees swarmed, and the fact that they
settled verified, in her own mind, the
belief that the bell did it-Country

THE UNITED STATES WILL SOON
KNOCK AT THE DOORS OF
CANADA FOR WHEAT.
A Crop of 100000 Bushels of Wheat
Will Be the Record of 1904.


The results of the threshing in
Western Canada are not yet complet.
ed, but from information at hand, it is
safe to say that the average per aero
will be reasonably high, and a fair
estimate will place the total yield OF
wheat at 60,00O,O0O bushels. At pres
ent prices this will add to the wealth
of the farmers nearly $6O,0O0,00O.
Then think of the immense yield of
oats and barley, and the large herds
of cattle, for all of which good prices
will be paid.
The following official telegram was
sent by Honorable Clifford Sifton, Min
lister of the Interior to Lord Strath-
coma, High Commissioner for Can
ada:
Am now able to state definitely
that under conditions of unusual diff
Guilty in Northwest fair average crop
of wheat of good quality has been
reaped and is now secure from sub
stantial damage. The reports of in

exaggerated. The wheat Of Manitoba
and Northwest Territories will aggre-
gate from fifty-fve to sixty million
bushels. The quality is good and the
price Is ranging around one dollar
per bushel."

the United States will knock at the

road men see such a day; it may be
hoped that statesmen also will see II,
and arrange their reciprocities while
they may do so gracefully. Americans
already have swarmed into that far

Peruna is known from the Atlantic to
the Pacific. Letters of congratulation
and commentator testifying to the
merits of Peruna as a catarrh remedy
are pouring in from every State in the
Union. DIR. Hartman is receiving hun
dreds of such letters daily. All Glasses
write these letters, from the highest to
the lowest.
The outdoor laborer, the indoor arti-
san, the clerk, the editor, the statesman,
the preacher-all agree that Peruna is
the catarrh remedy of the age. The
stage and rostrum, recognizing catarrh
as their greatest enemy, are especially
enthusiastic in their praise and testi-
mony.
Any man who wishes perfect health
must be entirely free from catarrh. Ca
tarrh is well night universal; almost ON
nipresent. Peruna is the only absolute
safeguard known. A cold is the be-
ginning Of catarrh. To prevent colds,
to cure colds, is to cheat catarrh out Of
its victims. Peruna not only cures en-
tarrh. but prevents it. Every household
should be supplied with this great rem
edy for coughs, colds and so forth.

admirer of Peruna. He keeps it con-
