Well Known Old Soldier
a Candidate.

J M. McAdams announces in The
Times, today his candidacy for the
publican nomination Of county
assessor. Heretofore the cou lty
assessor has been appointed by the
lard of county commissioners, but
from this year 1T is an eleetive Office.
Judge McAdams is an old soldier.
His regiment was mustered in May
IL, 1861, and was honorably mustered
out at the close OF the war. He has
been IA r 4publican ali his life, voting
for Lincoln and for every nominee for
president on the Republican ticket
since that time.
He has had much experience in

chat kind of work. He has lately
been appointed deputy assessor for
the city of Chauute, making the
third time he has helped assess the
city.

want the Office and feel competent to
fiji it, not because / can't make "a
living. l deserve no credit for being
an old soldier, above any other vetern
who served his country faithfully in
her hour of peril.
IF the Republican voters at the
primary zee fit 10 nominate me, |
will be grateful and will try to con-
duct myself 80 they will not be-
ashamed of me, and il defeated /

Why the Babies Die.

If there is more senseleSs habit
than that OF doing certain things just
because Amother did that way" l
have not been able to discover it. We
all know the woman for whom Sunday
is the hlrdest day in the week but
who always washes on Monday be-
cause her mother did, not taking into
consideration the fact that in her
mothers time that people rested on
Sunday.
Then there is the woman who feeds
her baby "a lasts of everything" from
the time it is three months old, She
reads articles in the magazines which
say baby cannot possibly digest any
thing but milk under the age Of nine
months, but she throws it aside and
says, My mother hal large family
and she fed her babies gravy and corn
starch and rice" She does not stop
to remember that half of mothers
babies slept in the quiet churchyard
before they reached the age Of ten,
and that among those who survived
not one Is in robust health.
After a time her baby gets sick.
The doctor asks what it has had to
eat and is not surprised at the recital,
for be knows this feeding process is
quite a common one and the direct
cuase of almost every illness among
children. He tells the mother that
the digestive juice that acts on
starches is never present in any child
before she age of two years, yet she
continues TO feed starchy foods. Add
IL the baby dies with cholera infantum
during the second Summer she thinks
the ways OF Providence are certainly
mysterious.

Farm Notes

There are at least seven good
reasons for destroying weeds in grow
ing crops. A part OF this work can
be done by raKing aud burning weeds
before blowing. The reasons are:
l. They rob soil of food.
?. Choke out the crops.
3. Increase the cost of every farm
operation,
4. Some are Injurious to stock.
5. They reduce the value Of
property.
6. Attract a1d harbour injurious
insects and fungous diseases.

A farmer in Illinois reports that he
plowed under crop of clover for
which he had been offered 81 per acre
as it stood in the field. This was
second growth clover and stood knee
high when it was plowed under, about
the middle of May. He considered
this clover worth more as fertilizer
than as a crop and his judgment
would seem to have been verified as
he raised 10 bushels of corn per acre
that yelf.

The question as to whether piles Of
manure around the dairy barn are
liable to produce disease should be
answered in the Affirmative. But
aside from this, manure should not be
piled up anywhere out Of doors as it
