INSPECTION OF MEAT,

Another instance of the value of gov
eminent inspection of meat has come
TO light in the case of a tubercular COW
that was condemned Friday afternoon
This latest case was discovered at the
Abattoir by DR.. Waggoner, the govern
ment Inspector. A local butcher was
present when the COW was slaughtered
and discovered to be infected and
made this Illuminating remark, well,
SO that is tuberculosis. | don't believe
it for 1 have seen many cows butch
cred in Richmond and sold, that were
afflicted with the very same disease,
If it is disease
From the very lips Of one of the
butchers who are fighting with all
their might to prevent government in
spection of the meat that the citizens
of Richmond consume, we thus learn
that many tubercular cows have been
slaughtered and sold, and yet this man
with his associates does not see the
necessity for government inspection.
Council can end this intolerable sit
uation at once if it will but do it's
duty The butchers do not deserve
one speck of consideration. BY their
attempts to obstruct government in
spection they have shown that they
have no consideration for the health
of their fellow citizens. Therefore, if
council wishes to prove true to it's trust
to the people let it at once put into
force the ordinance compelling all
meat sold in Richmond to be govern
ment inspected meat.
Council has tried to be lenient to
the butchers and has given them ample |
time to cooperate in obtaining gov
eminent inspection. The butchers, /
however, have used the time allowed /
them in, hiring an attorney to block /
government inspection. In view of this
it would be wise on the part of the
people If they would refuse to purchase
that is not inspected by the govern
ment inspector. There are plenty of
butchers in the city who do sell gov
eminent inspected meat and they de-
serve the patronage of our citizens
who wish pure meat. Every citizen
who patronizes a butcher that handles
other than government inspected meat
places his or her entire family in dan
ger of infection from deadly tubercu-
losis. Just think that over and then
get busy and help along the pure meat
by refusing to- order of any
but pure meat butchers.

Editor Palla dunn:

When a man first joins the army and
life is, he wishes he had never seen a
recruiting station, but that feeling
leaves you when you have been here a
couple of weeks.
Although Columbus is not what it
really ought to be. it is all right
Men that come to Columbus, after a
few days, think that the army is abso-
lutely no account, but they must re-
member the nature of the military
post here and that it is only place to
take the stiffness out OF their joints
and give them soldierly bearing When
they leave Columbus after a period of
about forty-five days, they travel in a
solid Pullman train othat is, if they are
going any distance at all, and when
they get to their permanent post,
things are a great deal different from
what they were at Columbus and they
are great deal better too.
We have at the Columbus barracks
now seven companies of permanent
party men and seven recruit compa-
MES. In all, we have about eleven
hundred and sixty seven soldiers at the
Columbus barracks.
| am in the hospital corps stationed
at Columbus barracks and the fellows
who compose the corps have certainly
got the snap of the army. for several
we get six dollars more
a month than the line men do: second,
we have our own private quarters with
the line they sometimes have fifty or
sixty men sleeping in one room; third, |
we have the best meals in the post.
To give you an example of what we
eat, on the Fourth of July we had, |
beef roast pork, mutton, |
salmon and boiled ham and chicken.

japanese naval officers are ubiqui-
tous," said an old traveller the other
day. II was in London few months
ago when l saw dapper little man in
the uniform of navy Lieutenant on
the Strand. There was something in
his manner which caught my atten-
ton, and l wondered where it was
that | had seen him before. 1t took
me nearly an hours hard thinking
to call it to mind. but l finally sue
ceeded. When / last saw him he was
a wardroom steward on an American
battleship. 1 never see a Japanese
waiter or valet on board a man-of-war
or in an officers club on a military
reservation but l wonder who he is and
he came.''-New York Herald.

SEEDING COMMENCED IN
WESTERN CANADA.
The Prospects fer Large Acreage to
Be Sown in Wheat.

ST. Paul, April "a, 1SO7.-Word has
been received at the office of the
Canadian Government in st. Paul that
seeding has commenced at various
points throughout Manitoba, Saskatch-
evan and Alberta
The heavy snowfall during the past
winter has left the ground in splendid
shape for successful seeding opera
tions. The fine weather Of the past
few days has taken much of the frost
out of the ground and during next
week there will scarcely be a district
in which the seeder is not being oper-
ated. The most optimistic conditions
exist and in all districts the farmers
are busy getting things in shape.
There will be a very large acreage
sown in spring wheat, oats and barley.
At many points throughout the three
provinces the newcomers are busy uR-
loading their stock and effects, work
ing night and day in order to get on
their farms and become active agen-
cies in the effort TO make the year
1907 the banner year in grain produc-
ing in Western Canada. As compared
with districts many hundred miles
further south than this, it will be seen
that Western Canada ranks amongst
the first in the line of seeding opera
tions for the present year. 1t is safe
to say that farmers who get in their
crop before the Goth or oath of May,
will receive magnificent returns. A
number of those coming in this spring,
who had not their land prepared last
fall, will break up enough land to get
in a crop of oats and barley and prob
ably some fax. This, together with
the vegetables they will plant, will
give them ample food for themselves
and stock during the coming summer
and winter. These early seeding oper-
ations are not confined to one district
but are spread over a country 900
miles long by 400 miles in width.
The agents of the Canadian Govern
ment, located at different points
throughout the United States, are
busy giving information regarding the
many new districts that are being
made available for settlers. Low rail.
way rates, information and literature
are given on application to the agent
whose name appears in advertisement
elsewhere in this paper.

upon the theory that there was plenty
of room straight up, but that ground
had to be bought, and the wanderer
was shown to a room on the third

window it was a straight drop to the

Laundry work at home would be
much more satisfactory if the right
Starch were used. In order to get the
desired stiffness, 1t is usually neces-
sary to use so much starch that the
beauty and fineness of the fabric is
hidden behind a paste OF varying
thickness, which not only destroys the
appearance, but also affects the wear
ing quality of the goods. This trouble
can be entirely overcome by using De-
flance Starch. as it can be applied
much more thinly because of its great
