Here Are Some Facts for Our Farâ€" mers to Digest. No counsel is better suited to the times for agriculturalists than adâ€" vice to save their breeding stock. To sacrifice it now is to court lamentation in the future. With millions of men victims to the lust of war, there must come & shortage in all departments, of horses, of cattle, of sheep, of swine, of poulâ€" try and of dairy products. _ With shortage must come increased deâ€" mand must come better prices. Even before the great outbreak, there were indications of a shifting of the necessities, of the increase of live stock falling far short in ’proportion to the increase of popuâ€" lation. â€" Germany, the â€" United Kingdom and Austria Hungary all had a larger percentage in inâ€" crease of mouths to feed than they had of beef and mutton to put into them. Canada is better off than the countries named, for while their access of population since the beginning of the century has been from two and a half to one, and in cattle from five to one, the Dominâ€" on shows an increase in populaâ€" tion of 34 per cent. and of cattle of 17 per cent. Russia, the Argenâ€" tines and the United States each had an actual decrease in cattle in | the period referred to as compared F 1 oWb coodiiucs To Ansminl sAVE YOUR BREEDING STOCK. 4 420 10 t deculfisc n ind en e cattle from five to one, the Dominâ€" on shows an increase in populaâ€" tion of 34 per cent. and of cattle of 17 per cent. Russia, the Argenâ€" tines and the United States each had an actual decrease in cattle in the period referred to as compared with important increases in popuâ€" lation. {The United States is the worst off, relatively speaking, havâ€" ing increased in population twentyâ€" four per cent. and decreased in live stoék thirty per cent. Farmers might well digest the foregoing facts, all of which are gathered_ . from official _ sources. They might also well ask themselves what they are going to do about it. Having arrived at the decision, as they surely will, to follow the adâ€" vice of the Federal Department. of Agriculture, to save their breeding stock, they will next desire to know how the best and most profitable use can be made of that stock. Z‘here can be but one answerâ€" reed to the best. To help to & solution of the problems (ig te}ec tion tgus presen%:od the Publicaâ€" tions Branch of t Department of Agriculture at Ottawa have had prepared a series of Bulletins on the breeding and rearing of horses, cattle, sheep, swine and . poultry, and on dairy products, any of has the The and can be had gratuitously. . Apart from the preunt'mm& f of the fighting armies, which are enormous, if the ratio of increase of live stock in the past has been deficient, what must it be in the future? +~Canada has in past years been a large importer of sheep proâ€" ducts. From Australia and New Zealand have been taken great quantities of frozen mutton and of wool. â€" But those countries, esâ€" pecially the firstâ€"named, last year experienced tremendous losses from drought. Hence there will be great opportunities for gheepâ€"raisâ€" ing, in connection with which it is gratifying to be able to state that there has been considerable imâ€" provement in the West. Intproveâ€" ment at all is a sure indication of possibilities that should be made the most of. In short, there is no branch of live stock breeding in which there is not room for imâ€" provement. Swine have been sacâ€" rificed and~slaughtered at a much to be regretted rate of late, in the rush for realization. Before the year is out and in the years to come, there will be a much greater demand for bacon, for ham, for pork than there is toâ€"day. Of dairy products a somewhat similar story has to be told. They have not been rushed on to the market as have swine, but the increase has fallen far short of the proportionâ€" ate increase of consumption. _ So much is this the case that we had last year to call upon New Zealand | for seven million pounds of butter, | while our exports of cheese have declined. This, as well as other f aspects of the situation, can only ‘ | be overcome by improved breeding. TEETHING TIME TROUBLES. Baby‘s teething time is a period of anxiety for mothers unless baby‘s stomach is kept sweet and his bowels regular. No other medicine has been found so valuâ€" able during teething time as has Baby‘s Ownâ€"Tablets. They make teething painless and by their use baby gets his teeth so easily that the mother scarcely knows they are coming. â€" Concerning the Tablets, Mrs. F. Goldsmith, Nelson, B.C., writes: ‘"Baby‘s Own Tablets are a mother‘s greatesi help during the teething period.‘"‘ The Tablets are sold by medicine dealers or by mail at 25 cents a box from The Dr. Williams‘ Medicine Co., Brockâ€" ville, Ont. Average Yield of Milk Per Cow | Â¥Very Low in This Country. There is a remarkably lucid artiâ€" cle on ‘"‘The Dairy Industry," by Commissioner J. A. Ruddick, in the Agricultural War Book issued by the Department of Agriculture at Ottawa. From it we learn that there has been a decrease in milch cows in all the eastern provinces, but that the increase in the western provinces makes this deficiency up with 185,000 to the good. We also learn that in ten years there was a most gratifying increase in the: value of dairy products of from $66,470,953 to $109,340,024. There was an almost alarming decrease of exports of butter and cheeseâ€" of butter from 34,031,525 lbs. in 1906, a record year, to 1,228,753 lbs. in 1914; and of cheese from 215,834,543 lbs. to 144,478,340 lbs. in the same years. Denmark is the greatest country of exportation to England in dairy products, but New Zealand is virtually Canada‘s chief rival. Mr. Ruddick acknowâ€" ledges that the quality of our cows in yield of milk has improved, but after giving many valuable sugâ€" gestions on enlarging ofmarkets and on methods for increased proâ€" duction, he concludes with the folâ€" lowing table showing the percenâ€" tage of cattle compared with popuâ€" tage of cattle compared with p lation in different countries :â€" The percentage represents numâ€" ber of cattle to every 100 of popuâ€" lation. ‘"‘For a country without a large industrial population,‘"‘ Mr. Ruddick says, "Canada takes a very low place in the foregoing list.‘‘ Other points that the Comâ€" missioner makes are that the averâ€" age yield of milk per cow is still very low in this country, and might be increased 25 or even 50 per cent., and that "the farmers of Canada as a class have not yet learned how important it is to keep cows in good condition.‘"‘ Bulleâ€" tins on Dairying can be had free on application to the Publications Branch, Department of Agriculâ€" ture, Ottawa.

It would need the imagination of Edgar Allan Poe to describe the end of the German cruiser Emden as it was described to the British Weekly Dispatch by one of the crew who sank the German raider. The details of the affair are well known. The Emden was driven ashore by H.M.S. Sydney, and she grounded upon a reef of the Cocos Islands. Before that had happened her decks had witnessed scenes of horror unsurpassed in the story of naval warfare. Not only were men absolutely annihilated by the fire of our shells, but they were outâ€" lined in frescoes of flesh and blood against the steel walls of the turâ€" rets. The prisoners said that it was just as though the whole outâ€" line of a man had been pasted by a crude artist upon a black grey tablet. Limbs of men were everyâ€" where, and one officer coming up from below was seen to stoop and throw the dismembered fragments of men overboard before giving his orders. % All this was but the prelude to the terrible scenes which followed aifter. The ship struck the rocks and listed heavily. Many of her crew, some helpless by reason of their wounds, were thrown into the shallow waters, where no help could come to them. As night fell the agonizing cries of these poor wretches went unanswered, though none could have guessed their fate. They were being devoured alive by the gigantic land crabs of the Coâ€" cos Islands. These crabs are well known to the students. Many of them are nearly two feet across and their claws are terrible weapons. It is appalling to contemplate the agony of the German sailors thus thrown to such a fate. Even Victor Hugo‘s famous story of the giant octopus pales before such a narrative. Yet the truth of it seems incontestible. It is war as the world knows it.

"I caught cold and was so prostrated with pain I could not bend over. We always have Nerviline at home, and I had the painful region rubbed thoroughly with this grand liniment. At once the pain departed. The lameness was rapidly reduced and in an hour I was able to be about my housework. I was rubbed again just before retiring, and awoke as usual in the morning without a sign of my back trouble." p 5 4 There is no sort of muscular pain that Nerviline won‘t cure quickly.
