When the duke of Wellington was
conducting the peninsular wars he had
with him several Irish regiments. One
of these stationed in Porto came to
like the place so much that the men
decided to make it immortal with
the O'Tooles and O'Haras. Hence
the town known to the Portuguese as
Porto has ever since been blazoned far
and wide to the rest of the world as

Children Need Proteetion.

Because they have less resisting
power, children are more susceptible
to all kinds of disease germs than old

should be early taught TO avoid the
habits which lead to infection It is
little short of a criminal risk to al
low child to work or play in a room
or yard that is not clean as it can
be made.

British Fond of Huntinu.

How greatly hunting enters into
British social life is shown in the
fact that there are, according to re-
cent computation, 456 recognized
packs of hounds in the United King
dom. OF these England has 364
packs, Ireland IS packs, and Scotland
II packs. In round numbers, the packs
which hunt the fox and deer total
some 5000 couples of hounds, while
Of barriers and beagles there are $500
couples.

Itis-cIalmed the seed situation of the
entire state is the Most critical it has
been for number of years and many
sections will be entirely without seed
and in many others there will not be
enough good seed to supply the de-
mand. The dry season, followed by
late rains, left the corn, kaffr, milo and
feterita in unusually bad shape and has
caused much OF it to spoil. Reports
from many farmers who have tested
their seed show that often times that
seed that looked the best was either
dead or showed that it was too poor to
plant We probably do not realize
now how critical the situation is It
is important that something be done
Immediately. Good seed will mean
millions of dollars in tho state. We
urge the farmers in this section to test
their seed corn, kafir, milo and feterita,
Immediately before the spring work be-
gins, Do you know that it will grow?
Test and find out.
