This is what the children say or used to say, but of all the sad anniversaries of the birthday of our good old Queen, never was any so bad as this one. We are told that the Boer war was largeâ€" ly the cause of her death. What would her feelings be were she alive toâ€"day, she who was such a lover and champion of peace ? We hear of very little celebration, rightly so. How could we fittingâ€" ly rejoice while thousands of our country people are mourning over loved ones dead and dying and our dimes and dollars are more needed elsewhere. Sunday, altho cold and windy, did not prevent a goodly number coming out to the Presbyterian church to hear the pastor‘s disâ€" course on * Does it make any difâ€" ference what we believe." If we had any doubts before we would be entirely convinced that it does make a vast difference in earthly affairs as well as religious ones. We know it has made a sad difâ€" ference to all British subjects what Kaiser Wilhelm believed. Next Sunday will be Empire Sunday, when the boys and girls are asked to give their collection, making it as large as possible, to the Red Cross Fund. Mr D. G.

They all in their own manner as it were sing the praiaes of the Great Giver of all good, who brought them safely through the severity of a cold winter. They are in a manvner superior to the human race, for they do not ask for any arti= ficial means of praises, but the voice that was given them at the creation of tha world. While the majority of the human families are taking their ease on their beds, the little birds are playing from branch to branch in the orchard be. hind the dwellicg, where the inmates are yet sound asleepâ€"as if ,calling them to pay attention to their music which they are sweetly singing as their morning song of praise. The different classes of birds have differâ€" ent voices, some sweeter than others. The old crow sings aloud with his ‘‘ caw, caw " as if trying to drown the little sparrow‘s yoice, which can only be heard faintly. The time of the singing of the birds reminds us of the days of our youth, the many beautiful May months some of us have seen in this world where there are so much trials, troubles and adversities, The aged person will reâ€" member when like the sraall birds who so cheerfully sing on a beautiful summer morning, when they too would join in singing sweet music, which often would be echoed by the nearby woods. Now the once sweet veice is beginning to get feeble, as like an old musical instrument that has been in use for a long time Some of the strings are getting broken and those that are not are getting pretty well worn out. The fields are all covered with the beauties of nature, ‘The little busy bee will soon be getting honey from every little flower as it goes singing along from one blossom to another. The littie mosquito sings along and her sharp sting penetrates till it draws blood from the veins of man acd beast. The old cow that has her young calf taken from her is howling and her vorce is too course for soâ€" prano, it suits in the bass part of the animal choir. This beantifual May morning will be a sad reminder to many a home. How many brave young man rejoriced and were happy last May, cheerfully went forth attending to their different avoâ€" eations in life, singing with cheerfnl hearts as they moved along. . But how many of those young braye boys w re taken away from their homes to defend our noble country. _ The sound of thousands of musical voices are stilled that so gladly cheered the hearts of fathers and mothers when listening to their happy notes, but now the cheerful songs are turned to a mournfal tone. How many a brave buy is on this beautifual May day sleepâ€" ing in the trenches, awaiting as the case may be, to be shot by the foe. How many a weeping mother is toâ€" night repeating the old version " OLh where is my boy toâ€"night ?" That brave and noble boy is somewhere doâ€" ing his share of detending our counâ€" try. The time of the singing of the birds has coms and the time of sorrow and weaping kas come also in many & home. How many a home has beeh made sad and lonoly during the last 10 days. We giye an imaginary look at those higbâ€"class men and women who boarded that powerful vessel, which was blown to atoms by demons and we fancy we bear them singing as they launched on the ocean, the old bymn, ++ Out on an ocean all boundâ€" less we ride, We are homeward bound bomeward bound." _ But alas, they never reached the desired haven, but we hope that they gained a port call. ed Heaven, where the enemy dare not coms near or molest them. The time of the singing of the birds reminds the tiller of the soil that he has to put in the different kinds of seed in due time. He sows the seed in good faith and sometimes must put in some extra, for there must be sown one grain for the blackbird, one for the crow, one for the cut worm and a few to grow, When we see a flock of blackbirds it i= generally a sure indiâ€" cation of a wet spell and when a large flock of white or snowbirds are seen in the fall or beginaing of winter, look out for enow soon or sold, frosty winâ€" ter. This is Saturday night, the 15th of May, 1915, and there was heavy frost this morning again. Some seeding to do yet in this lo~ cality. Little Annie MelLeod, south lins gave a birthday party to her school chums and others on Satarday last, when a lot of youngstere and a few older ones enjoyed themselves at Anâ€" nie‘s expense, first in playing and afterwards sat to a good spread for | the oceasisn. Annic is just eight | years old aud all wish her a long Iist ' of birthday parties in future. There are lots of old peop‘le in the world and they don‘t know what vear or month their birthday comes, only they refer to some calamity that bhapâ€" peoed and such a person was born then, as for instance " the year all | the potatoes rotted in the bighlands of Beotland. Muracha na‘m porst was born that year, or the year the harvesters‘ boat got lost from the Is!e of Mull on their way to the lowlands ; to harvest." Old Mr. McPhee, of Normanby, says that was in the year WEST OB PRICEVILLB 1823. : So . MrBo and Bo must be: crawling up to the century mark pretty well. A ‘jolly old highlander was telling ef a dream he had one night. He dreamt that a friend took bim into the hotel to treat him and the barâ€" tender asked Sandy whether ho would havye his whiskey cold or ho. ‘ By gollies," â€"says Sandy, " I thimk I‘ll have it hot this time." The waiter took same time before coming and lo and bebhold Sandy awakened before he got the toddy and * by gosh, I was so sorry that I didn‘t take it eold " says Bandy. Alex S. Muir is a young man who is handling the flocks his ftather esâ€" tablished twentyâ€"four years ago. There are both pureâ€"bred Leicesters and Cotswolds, but Mr Mair likes the tormer better. They have done the best for him, and he says they sell better than the big Cotswolds. He also claims that the Leicester lambs are ready for market sooner than the Cotewolds, and are easier fattened. But after a year old the advantage is with the latter. Enthusiastic Breeder of Leicesters and Cotswolds Alex $. Mulr; of Artemesia, Favors the Lelcesters, but breeds bothâ€" Nothing like Sheep on a Farm. Mr Mair also shows at a number of the local fall fairs, where he secures about all the prizos in his classes that one breeder could rightly expect to. He finds the fairs valuable as adverâ€" tising mediams, but also believes in them because it induces men to take better care of their flocks and take a &reater pride in them. He sugges‘s that some trouble with sheep co nes from the fact that not sufficient care is taken of the flock. It is true that sheep do not require much care, and this faot leads ow nâ€" ers to be careless with themâ€"and trouble comes. During the cold, wet nights of the fall it Cotswolds, which have a somewhat epen wool, are left! in the open they are liable to catch cold and go off their feed ; and it is potoriously hard to cure a sick sheep. * Sheep are a good proposition on any farm," said Mr Muir to The Sun. * They are crackers to clean up the weeds, and they give returns in both wool and matton. You don‘t have to "kill the goose that lays the golden egg with sheep in order to get sume returns." At the local markets during the past eight years wool has ranged trom twenty to forty cents per pound and this year‘s elip ayveraged easily ten or eleven pounds, running in snme cases as high as fourteen pounds off one animal. In breeding up the Aock Mr Muir uses stoek secured from such men as Whitlaw of Guelph and Jas. Snell of Clinton, and in tarn, he finds a ready market for all his lambs that he cares to sell, ruoning as high as $40 tor a pair of ewes. In breeding he is keeping one eye on type and the other on the quality of wool. In Leicesters, too, the tenâ€" deney is to breed for a finer wool. Some years ago the English Leicester type with a tuft of wool on the head like the Cotswolds, but now the Bo!â€" der type with a clean head is the faâ€" vorite, while the face has now a coarse hair covering it, but no wool, Type, form, flesh and fleece are the foor btg points in breediog pure breds and all are taken into consideration, torming a faseinating stady ; a strivâ€" ing after the idsal. The feed bhas a lot to do with it, and during the winter Mr Muir feeds cloyer hay or peas and oats cut green pulped turnips and a little chop. The ewes get a few oats. Of course the rations vary according to conditions in the flock and the weather. No bard and fast rule can be laid down. " To sell the best is one of the most foolish things a man can de ; it‘s a ‘penoy wise and poand foolish ‘ polâ€" iey." *‘ It‘s always wise to keep the best sneep on the farm." said Mr Mair. Preparing the Wool He washes the sheep as soon as the water in the stream is warm enoughb and then in four days, or when the Q“”““““““““W“““! From Farmers‘ Sun of last week. TdRB"DURHAM REVIEW ‘pF nil has come back in the fleece, the shearing is done. The fleece is trimâ€" med and each fleece tied up singly, the outside of the fleece being rolied in. * Matted fleece comes as a result of the sheep being allowed to run loose in the spring rains too long. Mr Mair says that shearing can rot be done too soon after the water is warm epough for washing. No Trouble with Dogs He has never had any trouble trom dogs, as others havedone, His s'nus are brought home to the barnyar every night, and soon learn to come of their own accord. If sheep are kept in fields near the bush it is a temptation to stray dogs to worry them. They shoulid be kept up im sight of the house, and especially at night, where dogs ars less likely to find them. _ " It sheep are left to do as they choose," said flr Muir, " it is no wonder that they are lost. One mutt be carefal of them. Some peoâ€" ple even go so far as to say that sheep don‘t nead water. Well, ours do. They will take all kinds ot it, if they can get it." This spring has been a good one for sheep. and Mr Mair says he has lost none of his lambs at all. From five of his ewes he get eleven lambs, which is a prolifie yield. Winter weather seems to be here instead of spring this year. Surely our summer won‘t be spring, as we are ready to welâ€" come warm days again. A number of farmers have finâ€" ished seeding. Sunday showers seem prevalent this spring. Mr Hartley, post office Inspectâ€" or, was in our burg a week ago and is planning to have a rural mail route on the 9th and 10th in the near future. Rev.
