PARMPROFITS INWINTER THE SNOWY ii tami A LAZY SEASON.
NOT BE
Money tin Brains and Labor—The Science
of Couverting
Grain and Other Food
Into Salebio Beef, Mutton and Pork
Interesting Figures.
The winter season ig the period when farmers can advantageously de- vot share of their time to rais- thoengh in practice stock is scild in order to reduce the number be cold weather begins. The large crops of corn, wheat, oats and pota- toes will no doubt cheapen foods, ané a correspondingly lower price must be
a large
Mme stock
expected for cattle, sheep and swine, though the margin for profit will be the same as when grain is higher.
When prices of grain are low the only resource for the farmer is to endeavor to sell it in some other form, and if he must compete With cheaper grain from the West he must endeavor to use as much grain as ‘possible by keeping more stock. The reason is that the Western farmer, in selling his grain, impoverishes his farm to a certain ex- tent, while the Eastern farmer, by ur- ing grain for the production of beef, milk, mutton, pork, butter, etc., leaves a portion of the grain on the farm In the manure heap which may be worth
& much higher price next year, and this is a fact which shouid never be overlooked in estimating the receipts
and expenses on the farm.
The profit from the use of grain in winter feeding depends largely on the ir.telligence of the farmer. If he is careful to use good stock and sends every animal to market in prime con- dition he can make stock raising pay, even in a depressed market, because there is always a demand for choice, and half a cent more per pound in the prices obtained makes a large differ- ence when several cattle are sold. There is also a double gain when an tnimal is made fat, for in additien to the extra cent or more to the price obtained per pound there is also the gain in weight. If a steer weighing 1000 pounds and not in the best con- dition sells for $40, and can be mada to increase 206 pounds more in weight, selling at 4 1-2 cents per pound, owing to the better quality, the value of the picer becomes $52, or $12 more than the
criginal value, which should pay for the food used to add the _ increase, while the manure heap at the same
time becomes more valuable and really without any cost to the farmer. It may safely be stated, however, that 2 prime steer will bring more than the price named. The $12 additiona! may appear as a small sum, but it is 33 1-3 per cent. over the first cost of $40.
The labor cost is the heaviest tn all operations on the farm, and in the ef- fort to make the grain and other food bring more than the market prices by conversion into more salable prolucts, thie itetn of Yabor’ figures very prom- inently; but when it is considered that the item of labor can be balanced by the loss of time from inability to em- pioy labor during the winter season the real cost of the labor is the differ- ence between its value and the time that would otherwise be wasted; hence, any occupation in winter that permits the farmer to apply labor in some di- rection from which he can recelve a re- muneration is a clear gain, and should be so considered. There is also the opportunity to feed articles that are *50 low in price to be sold in market, such as corn fodder, turnips and even potatoes, which become all the more valuable when fed in connectior with grain, a combination ration giving bet- tes results than any single article that may be used exclusively. The use of shelter also reduces the cost of food, and, as stated above, the intelligent farmer should endeavor to utilize the winter months by selling his labor and by changing his cheap products into something more valuable.

STOCK AND POULTRY.
Diseased Twigs — A Cellar For Roots-— Bees in Winter,
Lessening the ration injures the farmer more than the animal, as he
loses the gain that would accrue from the full ration. Some animals are what are termed “easy keepers,” but it must not be overlooked that fn or- der to produce largely the animal must have the food to do it with. The best animals have good appetites, and con- sume large amounts of food. The value of an animal depends upon its capacity to cunvert the most food in- to some product that brings a price higher than that of the food, and the cost is consequently cheapened because a good animal will perform more work in its line, in the same period of time, than one that is inferior.
Small flocks of poultry pay best be- cnuse they receive a greater variety of feod, are not crowded at night, and have a larrer area over which to for- age in preportion to numbers. The table scaps are also an important item in the feod of a small flock, and there is less liability of disease than when large numbers are kept together. T.abor is a matter to be considered tn managing large flocks, but it costs tothing in the management of a few.
The main point to consider in the prevention of discases among stock is not to bring it on the farm. It may truly be said that abortion in cows !s caused by the practice of buying cows to take the place of those that dry off. Abortion is now known to be an ail- ment that spreads among the members of the herd, being really a cont*gious disease, and the way to keep it off the farm is for the farmer to raise his own cows, first being sure that all of his breeding animals are in first-class con- dition and free from all liabili‘y to dis- ease of any kind.
Cabbages are usually buried, heads under, covering well with earth as a protection. They can be taken up and placed close together, roots down, and then covered with straw and corn- stalks, which permits of using them at any time during the winter. After the heads have been used the stalks will send off sprouts early in the spring, which may be used as “greens,” ind thus provide a supply before kale
is ready. When cabbages are buriec they begin to rot when the frost come er* of the ground a

Now Backache.
There is only one kind.
And there is only one cure.
So don,t expect to escape or regover until you have used the cure.
Backache always results from or ailment in the kidneys.
Now, the cure is Dodd’s Kidney Pills.
li is wonderful how much backache means,
It is not a violent pain—no match for toothache, nor even a corn.
Bnt it means agreat deal.
_ | Nearly always it is proceeded by a cold * The circulation of the biood is checked right at the kidneys in such a case.
Take one of the worst and most fatal kidney diseasas—Bright’s.
The doctor shakes his head and says it is incurable.
This disease is essentially an inflamma- tion of the kidnevs,
The blood is checked, or dammed up, right in the kidneys themselves.
Stillthe heart keeps pumping away against ths obstruction caused by conges- tion or inflamation.
We are not taking about the heart just now, but sometimes it fails at such a juncture.
What does it all mean?
It means that by this extra pressure or the walls of the blood vessels, watery particles ooze through. This accumulated water is the condition called dropsy.
It means a breaking down of the tissues of the kidneys, and then the doc- tors retire or send the patient away some- where to die.
Or it means the paseage of a great part
a a ee ee
trouble
of the blood unfiltered to do harm at the weakest spot
Is there still hope ?
Yes.
The hope—the only hope of such a
patient—is Dodd’s Kidney Pills. And they always cure.
Cecil Rhodes has ordered Jarge numbers of English song birds, linnets, thrushes, blackbirds, larks and nightingales to be sent to Cape Town, where they will be ac- climatized and set free.
Laid Low by Indigestion.
i was so run down |! had to give up
work. Scott's Sarsaparilia the kind that cures.
Indigestion or dyspepsia is the bane of thousands, andis one of the most de- pressing of afflictions. It arises from an impure or impoverished conditiog ef the blood, which weakens the digestive and assimilative organs, &2ndering them in- capable of performing their natural func- tions, and it neglected, the sufferer loses flesh, complains of exhaustion afterslight exertion, and becomes rapid®y debilitated.
Mr. Wm. W. Thompson, a prominent resident of Zephyr, Ont.,Jp a letter dated Aug i2tts, 1895, says: “ite ives megreat sleasure'to testify to thy,” t that Scott's
arsaparilla has caused “most remark- able change in my condition. I was so much run down I had to give up work and felt as if life were net worth living. Mr. Dafoe induced me to try Scott's Sar- saparilla, and after taking four bottles I am now feeling as I formerly did years age, and I want to say for the benefit of those suffering from indigestion and feel- ing, to use slang phrase, ‘completely knocked out,’ don’t despair until you give Scott’s Sarsaparilla a fair trial.”
Scott's Sarsaparilla is a blood food, it stimulates all vital organs to healthy normal action, enabling them to throw off all poisonous and debilitating humors. Sold by druggists at $1, but there is only one Scott's. The kind that cures,

A GREAT HARVEST. MANITOBA’S EXCEPTIONAL CROP OF WHEAT AND OATS.
What a Few Industrious People Have Accomplished
of Western Progress; on Eastera Trade
in Manitoba and the territories perhaps the greatest har- vest that has ever been grown by sv few people in the worid before. It is
There is now
estimated that in Manitoba there are 25,000 farmers, many ef whom eoin- menced life in this western land with-
put capital a comparatively few years ago, and some of them without that knowledge or experience of farming which is, especially under the condi- tions of the Province, a calling in which both skill and intelligence are
quired. And yet these 25,000 farmers nave produced this year, according to the Government bulletin for August, 29,139,815 bushels of wheat, 21,887,416 bushehls of oats, 5,507,310 bushels of barley, and of flax 1,240,200 bushels, making, witb the rye and peas, a grand total of 57,861,621 bushels of grain. This is an average of something over 2,300 bushels for each farmer. And this great crop has been produced without the expenditure of a dollar for artific- ial manures, and with a very small outlay for wages, as the Manitoba far- mers generally have done their own seeding and breaking. The wages of an extra farm hand for about 5,000 of the farmers during the two months’ stacking end threshing about repre- sents the wages outlay for this ercr- mous crop. The greater number of the rest of the farmers did their own work with the aid of their families, end by “exchanging” with their neigh- bors.
in addition to the production of grain there has been a magnificent root crop, potatoes, turnips, cabbages, onions and garden vegetables of all kinds; and while the bulletin does not report the probable yield of these important pro- gucts, it must amount to nearly 10,- 000,000 bushels, and this can be safely said that for the production of roots of every variety Manitoba is equally as well suited as for cereals.
With a land incomparable in its rich- ness and fertility, with free institutions wise laws justly administered, with educational facilities from which no children are barred—here, too, will rise a Greater Britain—a worthy offspring of the grand old motherland across the sea. The only lack is population, and the statesman who solves the problem of peopling these untenanted lands from the congested districts of the east wiil Have done his country inestimabte service. Let anyone consider for a mo- ment what a tremendous impetus would be given to the trade of Canada if, instead of there being in Manitoba 23,- 000 farmers, producing 60,000,000 bush- els of grain, and a _ corresponding amount of other products, there were 200,000 farmers producing 480,000,009 bushels of grain, and $100,060,00 worth of meat and dairy products. How many thousands more operatives would be required in the factories of the east? Then no cry would go up from Cana- dian cities that there was lack of em- ployment for their working people, for the demands of this great wealth-pro- ducing army would keep busy every forge, spindle and loom. There are difficulties in the way of securing suit- able immigrants, but because the prob- lem is a hard one that is no reason why it should not be solved. Confeder- ation itself was a difficult problem. The building of the Canadian Pacific railway was not unhattended with great discouragements and enormous sacri- fices on the part of the Canadian peo- ple, and surely when Canadians have made these sacrifices to lay the foun- dation of a great nation, they will not falter and shrink in rearing the super- structure because it is attended with difficulties. Upon the peopling of the Northwest, in large measure, depends the prosperity of the whole Domin- ion, and upon our public men rests a grave responsibility in the inaugura- tion of a policy which will early bring about that glorious result which every patriotic Canadiar desires.—George H. Ham, in Ooctaber. Canadian Magazine.
When Hunting,
1.—Never, under any circumstances, point your gun toward a human being. 2.—Never carry it so that if it were accidentally discharged it would even endanger the life of a dog. 3.—Always think which way your gun is pointed, and, if a companion is in the field with you, no matter how near or how tempting the game ap- pears, do not shoot until you know where he is; a stray shot may be sufii- cient to destroy an eye forever.
4.—Neveéer carry a loaded gun in a wagon.
5.—Never carry a loaded gun over the fence; put it through and then get over. 6.—Always carry a gun at. half- cock; if a breech-loader, never let the hammer rest on the plungers. i.--Never get in front of a gun: if you are falling, drop it so that the muzzle will be from you. 8.—If the cartridge sticks the stout blade of a knife will probably extract it; if not, take out the other cartridges, cut a straight stick and poke it out from the muzzle; even then do get in front of the gun. 9.—After firing one barrel, take the cartridge out of the other and examine the wad to see that it is not loosened, as it sometimes is after a heavy recoil, for should it get into the barrel, it is liable to burst the gun. 10.—Never take hold of the muzzle ot a gun to draw it toward you. 11.—Never set a gun up so that if it should fall the muzzle would be toward you. 12.—Never keep a loaded gun in the house. : Follow these rules, be self-possessed and the fields will afford you sport without danger. sei ee

“T have indeed.”
“Buffalo hunting—~—”
“Sure.”
“And bear hunting——”
“Of course.”
“Well, you just come around and let my wife take you house hunting and bargain hunting with her. Then you'll begin to know what excitement is.”-- Washington Star.
