A Unique EndOwm

If any man Of wealth is in search Of
something besides libraries and colleges
to endow. a humble suggestion is held
in the article taken from a magazine
published by the American Association
for the Teaching Of Speech to the Deaf.
The object under consideration, the
only endowed flagstaff in the world, is
that belonging to the Royal Asylum for
the Deaf and Dumb, at Margate, Eng
land.
This staff was erected the first year
comnemoration Of his accession to the
throne. The cost was betrayed by TIE
pupils and friends. The collection taken
was so large that it enabled the pur-
chase Of twenty flags.
Even after the staff and the flags
were paid for, forty pounds remained
in the treasury. This sum was invested
est is used every other year in painting
and repairing the pole and tackle.
Some Of the various flags bought are
as follows: The Royal Standard, which
is flown on the Kings accession day,
his birthday and his coronation day:
the Stars and Stripes, run up on Roose-
velt's birthday and election day; the
German and French flags, used on the
Kaiser's and Presidents birthdays; ap-
Dropriate banners for St. David's, st.
Patrick's and St. Georges days; the
Union Jack for the anniversaries of ia
nous battles, and flags for the church
high festivals.

Sores, and Itching Eczema-Doctor
Thought an Operation Necessary
-Cuticura's Efficacy Proven.
81 am now 80 years old, and three
years ago I was taken with an at
tack of piles (hemorrhoids), bleeding
and p~rotruding. The doctor said the
only help for me was to go to a hos
pital and be operated on. 1 tried sew
eral remedies for months, but did not
get much help. During this time sores
appeared which changed to a terrible
itching eczema. Then I began to use
Cuticura Soap, Ointment and Pills, in
jecting a quantity Of Cuticura Oint-
ment with a Cuticura ~Suppository
Syringe. 1t took a month Of this treat
ment to get me in a fairly healthy state
and then I treated myself once a day
for three months and, after that, once
or twice a week. The treatments
tried took a lot Of money, and it is
fortunate that 1 used Cuticura. j. II.

An exchange says a young man ASKS
What would you advise n young man
raised on a farm who cannot stand the
dust Of haying and ~thrashing and is
most too light to do heavy farm work
to dO?" g
Gardening, Horticulture, poultry rails
ing. civil engineering-all are good. III
he is built for an expert, there are
landscape gardening, inside decorating
and n number. of other COED occupations
open to him. p aa.r'
The young mar who is built for an
expert-that is, one who is naturally
bright, careful and painstaking-will
succeed in any of the above or in al
most any other occupation. He will
nave to learn the business he selects.
He cannot learn any Of them from a
Correspondence school," He needs a
practical instructor who can show him.
and the way to become a expert Is to
begin at the bottom and work up, thor
oughly learning all the details as one
goes along. The expert Is always in
demand, and he commands the top
wages.
Whatever vocation a young mar goes
into, he should be thorough as he goes
along, always keeping his eyes open
for better ways Of doing the work he
has in hand. All vocations are crowd
ed with ordinary workers, but there's
still lots of room in the upper ranks.

The products Of the dairy COW are
fourfold. The first and chief product
is, naturally, the milk which she Sc
c~retes, and which is used as milk, or
for butter or cheese making. The sec
ond product is calves which she bears,
and which may be Of more or less
value. Third, the carcass of beef which
she will yield when she Is no longer
useful for the production Of milk
should be taken into account Lastly,
the manure she produces is of consid-
cradle value.
We may call the milk the main prod
uct and the calves, beef n manure
the by-products of the dairy cow. 1t
has been asserted that the milk product
is the only thing that should be taken
into consideration in estimating the
value Of the dairy cow, and that the
calves aud beef should be entirely ig-
nored by a successful dairyman, but
In these days OF strong competition it
is not possible to ignore the by-prod-
ucts, and in any scheme of successful
dairying the calves and beef at least
should be taken into consideration.
This does not mean that in any case
milk producing qualities are to be
sacrificed for the sake Of the by-prod-
ucts.
1t simply means that of two animals
of equal value for the production Of
milk the one hat Will give the greater
return in production Of calves and
value of carcass Is more profitable

HAY DROUGHT BIZ TROLLEY.

Farmers Near Philadelphia hiD

Fol the second time within a week
fifteen tons Of hay have been rams
ported into Philadelphia owe the line
Of the Philadelphia & West Chester
Traction company, illustrating clearly
the advantage of freight transporta-
ton by trolley and demonstrating the
possibilities of the Homsher trolley
freight law. says the Philadelphia
North American.
A little more than a week ago a
farmer Of Williamstown sent to this
city $1,000 pounds Of baled hay, which
were deferred to waiting wagons at
the SD street terminus Of the West
Chester line. Tuesday morning there
came to the station at Goth and Mar
ket streets, 10000 pounds OF hay,
which were shipped to Philadelphia
by William Green, a farmer Of Edge
mont township.
The distances which the hay tray
eled was more than thirteen miles. II

steam cars, and served to emphasize
the assertions Of traction interests ia
miliar with the workings Of the troll
ley freight scheme, that if the trolIeys
were used more generally for b car
rage of farm products from b neigh
boring productive counties consumers
here could get supplies much quicker
and in better condition and possibly
much cheaper than they get them now.
The West Chester Company, as well
as other interurban traction systems,
Is prepared to go into the trolley
freight business under the provisions
of the Homsher trolley freight law, on
a general scale if the Rapid Transit
company sees fit to permit it's cars to
come into this city over the latter's
tracks. Distribution of freight Of all
sorts could, under this arrangement,
be made almost at the door Of the o.
sumerS.
The Rapid Transit company is con-
sidering the adoption of such a scheme
and is expected to announce its decis-
ion at the annual meeting of its share
holders next month.

A Common DELINQUENT.

The dean of a normal college, in a
talk before the student body, was de-
ploring the practice common among
children Of getting help in their lessons,
and the tendency among parents to give
It too generously. AS an illustration he
told the following incident:
The mother of a small pupil in a Chi
eago school had struggled through the
problems assigned for the hid next
lesson, and had finally obtained what
appeared to be satisfactory results. The
next day, when the little girl returned
from school, the mother inquired, with
some curiosity:
"Were your problems correct, dearr'
mo. mamma replied the child
They were all wrong"
"All wrongy" repeated the amazed
parent. "Oh, I'm SO sorry"
well. mamma o don't need to be
sorry," was the reply AL the other
uamas had theirs wrong, too

Raise Alfalfa.

The hay crop is one of the principal
products of the farm. In 1906 there
were raised 57,145,959 tons Of hay,
valued at $500, 539,671, while the wheat
crop the same year had a value of
$49O,332, 100. Hay enters largely into
the live stock industry n is a lead
ing commercial product in supplying
the consumption of horses in cities.
Hay maintains a parity Of value with
corn and oats for feeding operations
and is usually fed in the proportions
Of one and a half to two pounds to a
hundred pounds live weight Of animals.
Hay is regarded as roughage and is
necessary in animal husbandry to
equalize the concentrated nutrlments Of
grain. '.HJ. !7' q
Alfalfa is one Of the richest legumes
and is economical for its large yields
and feeding qualities. The cultivation
Of alfalfa marks a new era in agri-
culture. 1t leads clover in the yield
per acre and also in its nutrient prop
critics. It yields two to four crops per
season and should be more extensively
cultivated in sections devoted to ami
NAL industry. 1t loves sunshine and
takes vast quantities Of nitrogen from
the atmosphere and deposits it in the
soil to fertiliZe future crops.
Alfalfa is rich In protein, which
makes heavy bone and strong muscles.
1t is relished alike by horses, cattle,
sheep, hogs and poultry. and when fed
to stock in the feed lots reduces the
grain ration and the expense of finish
ing feeders for market. 1t is partic-
ularly adapted to fattening sheep and
growing wool. Hogs thrive on alfalfa
and it enters largely into the problem
Of producing cheap meat.
Alfalfa ~renovates and rejuvenates a
rundown farm. 1t grows stalwart
roots that create humus in the soil.
The strong roots strike deep into the
soil, making 1t porous and immune
from droughts. 1t is admirably adapt
ed to the bee industry, as alfalfa honey
is equal to the nectar gathered from
the flowers Of the linden tree. Alfalfa
is a general utility legume adapted to
all kinds Of live stock, poultry and the
honey industry. The cultivation of al
falfa should be extended, as soil not in
digenous to it can be negotiated with
alfalfa bacteria. Its introduction will
increase the fertility Of the land and
aid in the solution of cheap meat pro

Hints to Mushroom Growers.

In turning up a portion of a bed
maggots may be discovered in the
manure. A few may do no ~perceptible
harm, but a large number will eat VI
the spawn, leaving not even a thread
to develop a single mushroom. Many
kinds Of insects are apt to swarm in
warm cellars, together with the egg
laying varieties which cause the mag
gots, regardless of foul air which may
often accumulate and which is an in
Jury to the mushrooms. In each suc
ceeding bed in large cellars insects fol.
low up the new beds and become more
vigorous. A high temperature such as
we had last fall is conducive to their
continued existance in summer garb.
A good crop, however, can be secured
In spite of them when the houses are
kept at all times cool.
When mushrooms are grown in glass
houses the return pipes are best run
under the walks. In the usual way
Of heating, where the pipes run under
the benches, paper placed over the beds
will be found beneficial as a protector
from excessive heat and drying. With
good, vigorous spawn. properly prepar-
ed compost and care about the require
ments of heat and moisture, a good
crop is a positive certainty.

SOMH REMARKS FROM MINNIE.
sofa EDITORS.
Whist They Think OF Western
Canada.

"b12 They Think OF western
Canada.
A party Of editors from a number
of cities and towns Of Minnesota re-
Gently made a tour Of western Canada,
and having returned to their homes
they are now telling in their respective
newspapers of what they saw on their
Canadian trip. The West st. Paul
Times recalls the excursion Of the Min
nesota editors from Winnipeg to the
Pacific Coast ten years ago. Referring
TO what has happened in the interval
the writer says: Thousands Of miles
of new railway lines have been built,
and the development Of the country
has made marvellous strides. Millions
of acres, then lying in their wild and
untouched state, have since been trans
ferred into grain fields. Towns have
sprung up as If by the wand Of a
magician, and their development is now
in full progress. 1t 1s a revelation, n
record of conquest by settlement that
IS remarkable" ... .r ... .1.,
The Hutchinson Leader characterizes
Western Canada as "a great country
undeyeioped. The summer outing" it
says, was an e~ye-opener to every mem
Der Of the party, ever those who were
on the excursion through Western Can-
ada ten years ago, over considerable
of the territory covered this year, being
amazed at the progress and advance
ment made in that short space of time.
The time will come when Western Can
ada will be the b~read-basket Of the
world. It was q delightful outing
through a great country Of wonderful
possibilities m resources" .
~ Since the visit of these editors the
government has revised its land regula-
lions and 1t Is now possible to secure
100 acres of wheat land at So an acre
in addition to the 100 acres that may
I've homesteaded.
The crops of 1908 have been splen-
lid, and reports from the various dis
riots show good yields, which at pres
INT prices will give excellent profits to
he armers
From Milestone, Saskatchewan, there
IRE reported yields Of thirty bushels Of
~pring wheat to the acre, while the
lverage is about twenty bushels. The
~luantity Of grain to be shipped from
his point will be about 100000 bushels.
Information regarding free lands and
transportation will be freely given by
