poison, destroys and decomposes the
living %protoplasm, cannot possibly be
apt. at the same time, to build and form
the same living substance of the body.
That alcohol can make no exception to
this rule. is taught by all physiological
facts, and has been logically proved by
my father in his various writings on
this subject. He has also verified thes.
theories by his practice as children's
physician, seeing the disastrous infiu.
ences of regular alcohol drinking on
mind and body of these unhappy little
creatures. BY all this he felt himself
induced though he had consecrated his
whole life only to the research of truth,
to profess his conviction before a larger
public than that composed of his scien.
titic colleagues. just now he is on a
literary tour in twelve different cities
of Switzerland where he has been
invited by the temperance societies. |

how. in our country, the anti-alcohol.
ism sentiment pervades slowly from
science into public opinion. In my
country II could not yet speak of a
great popular movement against alco.
holism, as we admire it in America
This movement with us, exists perhaps
only in the thoughts and wishes of a
few reformers. With you the origin of
the temperance movement has been
action; with us it is thought. But as
you have profted afterwards by the dis.
coveries of German alcohol investiga.

instruction laws. Sc we must learn from
you your excellent methods in potti-
cally combating the dangerous power
of the alcohol capital. The work of
temperance reformers in our country is,
first of all, to open the eyes of the peo-
pie, thas they may see the misery shat
hides itself below the shining surface
of our drinking customs: and probably
there will arise, though slowly, out of
conviction forced upon them, this
enthusiasm which has led you to
such beautiful victories

The new land "boom" is a more
sensible one than that of the SOS.
It is based on what seem to be per-
manent conditions or at least such
a situation as appeals to the farmer
as certain TO continue. With farm
products bringing 40 per cent more
than FIVE years ago, with rain fall in
the west showing year after year of
abundance, with seekers for new
homes knocking at the door, how
can farms fail to increase in price?
The optimists say the raise in val
e will go on rapidly for many years
to come; the more cautious contolt
themselves with the prediction hat
land will not be worth less than
now. The doubter can get no hear
ing and is not considered.

HINTS FOR FARMERS
Sheep In Winter.


There are many beginners in sheep
husbandry these days, and some OF
them are going to have trouble in their
flocks through mistaken ideas Of kind
ness to the sheep, says National Stock
man. One of these men found his
sheep unthrifty and suffering from
"cold in the head" though he did ev-
erything in his power to keep them in
good shape. They had enough to eat
clean quarters and were housed from
all storms. An old shepherd went to
his barn and saw the trouble at once
The doors were all shut. He at once
ordered them to be left open, and the
trouble disappeared. Remember, be-
ginners, that the sheep does not care
how cold it gets as long as it is dry
and not in drafts. Let the p rs of the
sheep barn be open and avoid colds
and unthrifty sheep.
