IN CANADA

Citizens.
WAVING THE II
Opponents to the Measure Are Using
Annexation Talk to Scare
People Over to Their
Side.

TORONTO, Ont, Aug. 21.-The re-
ciprocity campaign has gained full
headway throughout Ontario, the great
industrial province of Canada, as re-
suit Of the visits of Sir Wilfred Lau-
rier, the premier, and r. L. Borden,
the opposition leader
On all sides it is now recognized
that reciprocity is the issue Even
Mr.. Borden has declined to make
his campaign an attack on the fifteen
years record of the government. In,
stead OF undertaking he will win or
lose on the reciprocity issue alone.
More than one hundred conventions
have been held during the past week,
and rival candidates named In near
ly every constituency William Pat
terson, minister of customs, one OF
the commissioners who negotiated the
reciprocity agreement with Washing
ton, has been renominated in Brant.
Although he has held the seat for
forty years, a special effort will be
made by the conservatives to defeat
him
j. H. Fisher. member of the Ontar-
10 legislature, has resigned his seat
and will run against the minister of
customs. He is acknowledged to be
a strong man, and the result will be
a battle royal.
4 The annexation speeches in the
/ American congress are being made
] the most of by the conservative par
| ty, and hundreds of thousands OF
| pamphlets containing extracts there
from have been distributed in sec.
I tions Of the province settled by Unit
j ed Empire loyalists and recent COM
ers from England
The flag is also being waved every
where as stimulus to loyalists SEN

1 that the talk Of annexation is simply
beneath the contention OF serious peo
! pie, and they maintain it will have
no effect in influencing voters.
In Nova Scotia.
HALIFAX, N S., Aug. 21.-The
campaign finds both parties, liberal
and conservative unusually active in
Nova Scotia in the struggle over
reciprocity. The province sends eigh-
teen members to Ottawa, twelve OF
! whom were liberals in the late parlia-
ment and six conservatives.
Nova Scotia is supposed to be ira
ditionally favorable to closer trade
relations with the United States, and
it happens that the leading champions
for and against reciprocity, w. S.
\ Fielding, who negotiated the reci-
procity pact on behalf of Canada, and
r. L. Borden, leader of the opposition,
represent Nova Scotian constituents.
Liberal speakers say the pact is a
matter of business pure and simple,
and has nothing to do with Canadian
4 nationality or British connection.
Their opponents, the conservatives
say on the other hand, that recipro-
city would cause trade to flow north
and south instead of east and west,
and tend to divide the dominion. Nova
Scotia has coal, fish and lumber to
sell, and the shippers of the province
are in a position to employ cheap
water carriage to reach New Eng
land markets if the reciprocity ar
rangement were in force.

HOW TO CURE HAMS.

In curing hams dry, cut and properly brine the hams; sprinkle little powdered saltpeter on the feshy side; use three parts salt and 1 part granulated sugar; salt and pack in a pile, or put in a box. The third day break up your pile and re-salt with the same salt; do not add any more salt; re-pack and let it lay in bulk for one day for every pound the average ham weighs; hang up and smoke for ten days with hickory twigs or chips. Make a paste of black pep per and molases and put on the flesh side; wrap in paper and pack in box or barrel, putting new hay cut 1 or F inches long between the peices to keep them from touching. Be sure to keep the mice and rats out.-Progressive Farmer.

BIG SUM FOR INSURANCE
Newark Pays S424.15 Per rlonth
 For Fraternal Insurance

Newark probably pays out more money per month for fraternal life insurance than any town of its size in the state.
 Named in the order of their numerical strength, we have the following orders in town: Wood men of the World, Woodmen Circle, Mutual Protective League, Knights and Ladies of Honor, Modern Woodmen of America, and the Royal Neighbors of America. The Journal man called on the secretary of each of these or ders a few days ago and obtained statement of the amount of mon- ey they remit each month to their respective head offices, and we find the total is $424. 15. That amount was remitted for Decem- Der. All the fraternal orders are growing and each month sees an increase in the amount they col lect and remit, but allowing noth- ing for increase, the people of Newark will pay out for fraternal insurance during 1911, the sum of S5. .OS9. 30.

Rheumatic Pains

My mother is a great suf- ferer from rheumatism, and pr. Miles Anti-Pain Pills is the only remedy that relieves her."
 MRS. c. DAVENPORT.
 Roycefeld, N. J.
 The pains of rheumatism are almost invariably relieved with Dr. Miles Anti Pain Pills. They also overcome that nervous irri- tation which prevents sleep be- cause they soothe the nerves. To chronic suffers they are invalu- able. When taken as directed. they relieve the distress and save the weakening influence of pain, which so frequently pros trates. Many sufferers use them whenever occasion requires with the greatest satisfaction, why not you? They do not deranee the stomach nor create a habit. Why not try them? Get a pack age from your druggist. Take it according to directions, and if 1t does not benefit he will return your money,

Although nitrogen is essential to the full development of all parts of a plant, it's especial function is to produce the framework, such as leaves, stems, bolls, roots, etc. rather than seed and fruit In other words, its great office is to produce the veg etative part of plants rather than the reproductive portion. If an excessive amount of it is present too much stalk or weed development is pro. duced at the expense of seed. Plants of good size with deep green, well developed leaves are not in need of nitrogen, while those with small leaves of weak, sickly appearance may be. The presence of large quan- titles of this constituent in the soil tends 10 the prolongation of growth, frequently beyond q point that is safe for full maturity. Soils that pro duce plants of a good vigorous grow. ing size which fruit poorly are not in the need of nitrogen, but phosphoric acid or potash or both are needed 10 aid in the development of their reproductive parts.
